Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 787 Gang Xing Challenges Me!
The sea of ​​clouds reaching the sky and the Holy Fire Cliff.

Rolling purple mist permeated the vast cavernous secret realm, obscuring the secrets of heaven, and within the purple mist was a scene enough to trigger trypophobia.

The entire cave was almost hollowed out, transformed into a giant basin. Inside the basin, countless tiny insects, no bigger than grains of rice, were swarming about, their wings fluttering and chirping. The originally faint sounds, amplified by the sheer number of insects, transformed into deafening thunder.

——Qi-eating insects!

This was an extraterrestrial creature that Lü Yang obtained during the Battle of Dao, but feeding it consumed too much energy, so he did not devote much effort to it back then.

However, now that the Holy Sect has the endless treasury as support, Lü Yang has been spending money like crazy, allowing the Qi-eating worm to complete a qualitative leap in a short period of time.

"1.296 billion".

Lu Yang scanned the basin with his divine sense and detected the number of Qi-eating insects. This number seemed to have reached some kind of mysterious limit.

The number of Qi-eating worms can no longer increase from this point.

However, correspondingly, no matter how much is lost, as long as it is not completely wiped out, it can quickly regenerate to a peak number of 1.296 billion.

Of course, quantity is secondary.

More importantly, under Lü Yang's tireless cultivation, this extraterrestrial being finally unleashed a potential that had never been shown in previous lives.

At the same time, Lü Yang also gleaned some secrets from it:
"This Qi-eating worm appears at first glance to be a living creature of flesh and blood, but in reality it seems not to be so. Rather than a living creature, it is more like a kind of magic."

Lu Yang's cultivation level was still low in the past, and he viewed people and things from a lower cultivation perspective, so he was naturally ignorant. However, he has now gained new insights. In his opinion, the Qi-eating worm is a kind of spell that has been refined to perfection and then deliberately placed into the Immortal Pivot.

What is a Qi-eating insect?

"Blood and flesh essence, pure and turbid spiritual energy, it eats everything in heaven and earth, this is the Qi-eating worm, it is actually destructive to a realm heaven."

There's no need to say anything else.

If he were to throw the 1.296 billion Qi-eating insects he possessed into a realm that had not yet attained a fruition level, they might be able to devour the realm in an instant.

Even if they attain a fruition position and are protected by great power, these Qi-eating insects can still devour the spiritual energy of the realm, forcing it into the Dharma-ending Age.

"This is almost an ideal," Lü Yang remarked.

[Strange Phenomenon of Eating]!
"If I remember correctly, the Qi-eating worms actually appeared once overseas, and were controlled by a rogue cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, forming a huge swarm of worms."

"However, in the end, the swarm of insects was destroyed by the Bodhisattvas of the Pure Land."

"This may also be because the destructive power of the Qi-eating insects on the Heavenly Realm was discovered, which is why they took action to eradicate them in order to prevent irreversible damage to the Immortal Pivot."

Thinking of this, Lü Yang was even more amazed: "The current Qi-eating insect swarm undoubtedly has the power of a True Monarch, but to achieve this, it does not need to seek gold or a position. It only needs to be fed rare treasures and spiritual energy. This kind of growth method cannot be called cultivation at all."

That's why he identified it as magic.

Because only magic can grow in this way, constantly improving itself by refining external objects, just like [Great Mighty Spiritual Qi].

"The person who created this technique is a beast!"

Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh in admiration: "Although the Qi-eating worm appears to be under my control, it should still have a hidden supreme authority."

"He is the one who created this technique."

"That person scattered the Qi-eating worms to countless realms, making them exist as extraterrestrial alien species that could enhance strength, and allowing people to feed them willingly."

"Others expend resources and effort, and in doing so, they also damage their own realm."

"But he can reap the benefits without lifting a finger."

"Such a shameless and selfish tactic, coupled with magic, could it be the work of a True Lord from the Xuan Yuan faction? After much thought, it can only be them."

At Lü Yang's level, many secrets of the Void Sea of ​​Light were no longer secrets. He now knew that there were four super heavens within the Sea of ​​Light: Immortal Pivot, Heavenly Mansion, Star Palace, and Profound Enclosure. However, compared to the former, Profound Enclosure seemed more mysterious and unknown.

"Celestial Palace, Star Palace, Mysterious Enclosure."

"Tianfu is the Dao Lord of the Dharma Body Path, who is transformed from the corpse of the Demon-Suppressing One. The Star Palace was probably created by the Dao Lord of the Dharma Power Path; this is no secret."

"Only Xuan Yuan."

"As a super realm created by the Daoist Master of Magic, I have never come into contact with it before, and I cannot find its location by calculating cause and effect."

Lü Yang's intuition told him that Xuan Yuan was probably the most troublesome.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that he hadn't completely controlled the current swarm of Qi-eating insects was already giving him quite a headache.

'Fortunately, I have a way too.' The next second, Lü Yang made a hand seal, the Righteous Path Flag fluttered, and the rolling purple energy poured into the pit where the Qi-eating worm was like a waterfall of silver.

In an instant, screams of agony filled the pit.

'Although it is essentially a spell, in the mortal world it manifests as a physical body; having a physical body, it can naturally be refined into a banner spirit!'

In an instant, the swarm of Qi-eating insects in the pit suddenly went berserk, breaking free from Lü Yang's control and frantically devouring the purple energy emanating from the Righteous Path Flag. Clearly, the person behind the scenes had noticed Lü Yang's attempt to seize control and was trying to stop him.

"You think you can stop me from being so far away?"

Seeing this, Lü Yang smiled coldly, pointed his fingers and drew a line, causing a burst of fire at his fingertips. The [Ming Tian Zhang] technique was activated, and the invisible logic and cause and effect were instantly modified.

I am the Demon Slayer.

"Qiang Qiang!"

The next second, a sword light suddenly appeared, and he borrowed the power of the [Sword Dao] out of thin air. He lightly slashed at the void, producing a cracking sound.

boom!
The moment the sound exploded, as if some unseen connection had been severed, the previously riotous swarm of Qi-eating insects immediately returned to calm.

Without hesitation, Lü Yang changed his hand seal:
"Go!"

Refined instantly!

A moment later, all 1.296 billion Qi-eating insects in the pit disappeared, and finally transformed into a beautiful young girl who gracefully descended.

The young girl was completely naked, her face exquisitely beautiful. She appeared innocent and naive, but her beautiful eyes held a cunning glint in them. However, upon seeing Lü Yang, she dared not be negligent and quickly bowed down, kowtowing three times before saying in a sweet voice, "This servant greets Master!"

Seeing this, Lü Yang glanced at her and said, "Put your clothes on. What kind of behavior is this?"

"This servant thought that Master liked it."

"What a joke!" Lu Yang said righteously, "You've misjudged your master!"

The girl looked aggrieved, but still shook her body. Her originally fair and rosy skin suddenly changed, transforming into a loose Taoist robe.

This is the "Qi-eating mother worm".

Of the vast swarm of Qi-eating insects, only this mother insect possesses intelligence and even a soul. As long as she lives, the Qi-eating insect swarm will never become extinct.

The girl's appearance at this moment is merely an appearance.

The true Qi-eating mother worm is only the thickness of a fingernail and is difficult to see. At this moment, the physical body is actually an aggregate of 1.296 billion daughter worms.

When fighting with others, as long as the mother insect stays in a safe place first, and then the other offspring insects are released, no matter how many are lost, as long as the mother insect is safe, and as the master continuously infuses her with strong magical power, she can easily bring the offspring insects back to life.

"Now that intelligence has been awakened, it is time to have a name."

Lu Yang thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'll call you Jade Maiden."

As soon as she finished speaking, the maid kowtowed several times in excitement and said loudly, "Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Master. I will serve you faithfully!"

Lü Yang nodded in satisfaction.

But at this moment.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a violent turmoil swept through the cave. Seeing this, Lü Yang asked the Jade Maiden to wait aside, then walked out of the cave and looked up at the sky.

What came into view was a sword light.

The sword light rose from Jiangnan, stretching across the north and south, with immense divine power roaring forth from it. The sword's edge pointed directly at Lü Yang, clearly stating its stance:

"You want to fight me?" Lu Yang raised an eyebrow.

At this moment, not only him, but all the cultivators who saw the sword light understood its true meaning: the True Monarch Gangxing Pudao had taken the initiative to challenge them!

This is not only a battle between the Sword Pavilion and the Holy Sect that will determine the future of the Immortal Pivot, but also a battle between the True Monarch Gangxing and Lu Yang for the supreme position of [Heavenly Fire].

The battle between good and evil, a life-or-death struggle!
