Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

"Could it be that the fierce Demon has already arrived at Fengyuan Continent and begun a blood sacrifice?" Han Li's thoughts raced.

Although the distance between Fengyuan Continent and Thunderclap Continent was terrifyingly vast, it couldn't stop the existence of such super teleportation arrays that spanned continents!

A streak of light flew swiftly, quickly landing in front of Han Li.

The middle-aged man wearing green armor knelt on the ground, saying with a hint of panic, "Spirit Sovereign, something terrible has happened! Our Heavenly Spirit Guard discovered an astonishing number of Ming Insects in the Barbarian Wastelands!"

"Ming Insects!?" Han Li was startled and quickly asked, "Are you sure they are Ming Insects?"

"There's no mistake." The Heavenly Spirit Guard's expression was a little flustered, full of solemnity. "They are absolutely Ming Insects, exactly like the ones from legends, possessing the ability to devour the energy of heaven and earth!"

"Spirit Emperor, please see!" The person pointed a finger, and a hideous monstrous insect several zhang in size appeared on the city wall.

The monstrous insect was entirely greyish-white, its body like an inflated centipede, its mouthparts hideous, with greyish-white bone wings, and abdominal legs like sharp blades.

Looking at the monstrous insect, Han Li's eyes narrowed. On this monstrous insect, he sensed a strange aura.

"It is indeed an insect born from the Mother of the Silverfish!" Han Li took a deep breath, his heart heavy.

First there was the True Immortal from the Immortal Realm, now there is the Mother of the Silverfish.

This current situation could be described as extremely bad for him.

The Mother of the Silverfish actually gave up destroying the Demon Realm and coincidentally crossed realms to arrive at the Spirit Realm. This caught Han Li completely off guard.

Han Li looked towards Heavenly Spirit City and said in a deep voice, "Where exactly were the Ming Insects discovered?"

"The area that was originally the Wood Clan's sphere of influence!" The Heavenly Spirit Guard answered respectfully.

The Wood Clan was originally a race whose strength was not much different from the Human Clan, but with the arrival of the demonic disaster, the Wood Clan had already become history.

The Wood Clan's original territory had been occupied by the Demon Clan, but as the Demon Marks faded and problems appeared with the seal deep within the Demon Realm, most of the Demon Clan's armies retreated.

The remaining Demon Clan members also found it difficult to continue and only occupied a small portion of the Wood Clan's territory.

Han Li frowned. The Three Territories and Seven Regions where the Wood Clan, Human, and Demon races were located were not far. With the great divine abilities of the Mother of the Silverfish, it could easily come here.

Han Li sternly ordered, "Notify everyone to constantly monitor the movements of the Ming Insects!"

"Yes!" The Heavenly Spirit Guard responded respectfully, then turned and entered the city.

Gazing in the direction of the Barbarian Wastelands, Han Li's heart was filled with numerous doubts. He thought to himself, "Why did it abandon the Demon Realm? Reason dictates that this insect and the Demon Realm should have a blood feud. What caused this insect to give up revenge?"

"Could it be...?" Suddenly, Han Li's heart trembled. Thinking of something, his expression turned ugly.

"Could the Mother of the Silverfish also have come for the Little Green Bottle?" Han Li's heart sank. After much thought, he could only come up with this reason.

The Demon Realm had assisted the True Immortal back then in sealing that fierce insect for who knows many tens of thousands of years. One could say there was a blood feud between the two sides.

Under what circumstances would it give up revenge? Presumably, only something incredibly important could make that fierce insect temporarily abandon revenge.

"But it doesn't make sense..." Han Li frowned, puzzled. "The Mother of the Silverfish was clearly just a fierce insect born in the Lower Realm, how could it know about the existence of the Green Bottle? Even if it knew about the existence of the Green Bottle, how would it know it's in the Spirit Realm?"

Han Li was completely bewildered!

"Could there be an item related to the Green Bottle within the Demon Realm?" Han Li's eyes flickered, his thoughts racing.

With a flash of light, an avatar materialized and headed straight for the Medicine Garden in the center of Heavenly Spirit City.

Things had changed, he had to communicate with the Immortal Vine.

The Immortal Vine was one of his trump cards. Such important information could not be concealed, otherwise, if they were caught off guard at that time, it would lead to unpleasantness between them.

In the resplendent Medicine Garden, Han Li went straight to the point, saying in a deep voice, "Brother Teng, things have changed. The Mother of the Silverfish from the Demon Realm has crossed realms and arrived at the Spirit Realm!"

"It crossed realms? Was the Demon Realm destroyed by it just like that?" Inside the Immortal Vine's inner world, Fang Ming was surprised.

The way the Mother of the Silverfish destroys worlds is by devouring all the energy of heaven and earth, causing the world's energy cycle to fail, and thus collapsing on its own, rather than directly destroying it with great divine abilities in the usual sense.

This is a continuous process, not an instant one!

"That's not the case." Thinking of his guess, Han Li shook his head. If the Mother of the Silverfish truly possessed such divine abilities, then the Spirit Realm would not be like this now.

"Then why did it come to the Spirit Realm so quickly? Is the Spirit Realm really that unlucky? First a True Immortal, then Ming Insects! Does this Spirit Realm truly have to die?" Fang Ming felt confused and helpless.

There were so many realms adjacent to the Demon Realm, yet it happened to come to the Spirit Realm.

"Brother Teng, I'm afraid there's another hidden reason." Han Li said with a heavy expression, "I suspect that the Mother of the Silverfish came for my Little Green Bottle."

"The Mother of the Silverfish has a blood feud with the Demon Realm. If not for that, I can't think of anything else that would be enough to make it temporarily abandon its hatred!" Han Li said, his expression extremely solemn.

"How could it know about the existence of the Little Green Bottle?" Inside the Immortal Vine's inner world, Fang Ming was startled.

"This is also something that puzzles Han." Han Li shook his head with a bitter smile.

Aside from the Little Green Bottle, he didn't think there were any other great treasures in the Spirit Realm!

Xuan Tian Treasures were far inferior to his Little Green Bottle.

"Wait a minute..." Fang Ming was suddenly startled. Thinking of something, he said, "It's not entirely impossible for it to know about the Green Bottle's existence."

Han Li was startled and asked, "Brother Teng, what is your opinion?"

Whether the Mother of the Silverfish was still purely the Mother of the Silverfish was hard to say.

If it was just a simple Mother of the Silverfish, the possibility of it knowing about the palm heaven bottle, this supreme treasure, was not high.

However, the True Immortal who tried to seal this insect back then intended to seize its body. The two souls were in a stalemate, and a certain degree of fusion occurred. It's possible that some memories were shared.

No matter who won, if it happened to come to the Demon Source Sea, the Bottle Spirit of the palm heaven bottle was somewhere on Bitter Spirit Island in the Demon Source Sea of the Demon Realm. Given the Mother of the Silverfish's characteristic ability to devour the energy of heaven and earth, it's not impossible that it discovered the Bottle Spirit.

"Brother Han, don't you feel that something is missing from your Little Green Bottle?" Fang Ming asked in return.

"Missing something?" Han Li frowned. After a moment of thought, he said, "The artifact spirit? I presume Brother Teng is referring to the Green Bottle lacking an artifact spirit?"

"Indeed. Such a supreme treasure cannot possibly not have an artifact spirit!" Fang Ming said.

"Could it be that the Mother of the Silverfish obtained the Green Bottle's artifact spirit in the Demon Realm?" As he spoke, Han Li's expression became incredibly gloomy.

Although it was a great coincidence, this possibility existed.

This was enough to explain why the Mother of the Silverfish hastily crossed realms.

Fang Ming said, "Perhaps you could try soul-searching some of the special Ming Insects it has bred. You might gain something."

If he were the Mother of the Silverfish, he definitely wouldn't waste his talent. He would certainly breed a large number of insect swarms and then have them help him search.

In that case, the leading Insect King would definitely need to know what it was looking for!

"It is worth trying." Han Li understood Fang Ming's meaning and nodded slightly.

Suddenly, his heart stirred, and a cold smile appeared on his face. He said, "If that's the case, perhaps we can watch the tigers fight from the mountain!"

If that True Immortal from the Immortal Realm came for the Little Green Bottle, then there was indeed a considerable possibility that he would clash with the Mother of the Silverfish.

"If you want to watch the tigers fight from the mountain, Brother Han, you must constantly pay attention to the whereabouts of that fierce Demon. When necessary, you can lead him to the location of the Mother of the Silverfish." Fang Ming's voice came out.

Fang Ming was clear about the Old Devil's intentions. If the True Immortal from the Immortal Realm truly came for the Green Bottle, he could completely lead him to where the Mother of the Silverfish was, allowing the two to fight.

Of course, the premise was that the situation was indeed as they suspected.

However, although it was just a guess, even if it wasn't like this, it was worth a try!

If it succeeded, it would save a lot of trouble.

I wish all book friends great luck in the Year of the Snake and a Happy New Year!
