Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#421 - Kill the Insect Demon

Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "Enough with the nonsense. Take me to your transaction point now. After I kill that Insect Demon, I will definitely let you go.

Otherwise, my methods will surely make you wish you were dead."

Upon hearing this, Yu Chun trembled and said repeatedly, "Fellow Daoist Fang Qing, I bring a batch of people over every three months, not frequently,

otherwise, it would be easily noticed. Moreover, our location is tens of thousands of miles away, to prevent any leaks."

Li Chengfeng nodded, "Indeed, no wonder my divine sense couldn't detect him.

It turns out he flees tens of thousands of miles after each kill, truly a cautious demon."

Yu Chun smiled bitterly, "No matter how cautious, he can't escape Fellow Daoist's calculations.

I will take Fellow Daoist there, but my strength is limited, so please, Fellow Daoist, compete with him.

He has over a thousand Second-Order Golden City Insects under his command, I don't know…"

Li Chengfeng smiled slightly, "Naturally, I have a way. You just lead the way. I am an Insect Demon, and I naturally have ways to deal with Insect Demons."

Along the way, Li Chengfeng acted impeccably. Yu Chun tried to probe for information, but to no avail.

Li Chengfeng also took the opportunity to kill sea beasts, allowing the Devouring Sky Insects to feast, and he collected the beast souls.

Before long, the journey of tens of thousands of miles was complete, and a special sea area came into view. Sea beasts were scarce here, but insects were rampant. Spiders, snakes, scorpions, and centipedes were everywhere, and the temperature was unusually high.

Yu Chun stopped his flying sword and pointed to a spot about a hundred miles ahead, saying, "Our agreed location is there. To avoid startling the snake, we should hold our breath and sneak in to see if he's there.

Although I have contacted him, he may not be there. If he's not, we'll make other plans."

Having said that, Yu Chun appeared to be completely obedient to Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "Alright, let's go explore the situation first."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a mysterious force enveloped the two of them, causing their auras to seem to disappear without a trace,

leaving Yu Chun astonished. He praised in amazement, "Fellow Daoist's methods are truly beyond the reach of even immortals!"

Li Chengfeng did not respond with an arrogant expression, but instead led Yu Chun forward. Yu Chun could only lower his head awkwardly.

As they gradually approached the handover point, Li Chengfeng suddenly stopped.

He slowly extended his divine sense and, after carefully searching, smiled slightly and said, "As expected, he's here."

He turned to Yu Chun and said, "You stay here. Don't move. After I kill the target, I will return to remove your restriction.

If you leave now, I guarantee you won't escape death within seven days."

Yu Chun nodded quickly, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, how could I joke with my own life? I will wait here quietly for Fellow Daoist's return."

Li Chengfeng nodded and then left the handover point silently.

This sea area was deep and calm. On the surface, it seemed calm, but in reality, it was full of hidden dangers.

Li Chengfeng's divine sense had already detected a group of terrifying creatures hidden hundreds of feet below the sea—Gold-Devouring Insects, numbering over a thousand. They were ferocious and terrifying, poised to strike.

The Insect Demon Kang Wei was surrounded by these insects, exuding a fierce aura. He was closing his eyes and cultivating, waiting for his prey to enter the net and be killed with one blow.

Li Chengfeng remained calm, using "Historical Dust" to conceal his figure, approaching silently.

The other party was completely unaware because Kang Wei's divine sense could not penetrate this disguise.

And those Gold-Devouring Insects were also motionless as if hibernating, but once there was any disturbance, they would swarm out, and their power should not be underestimated.

Looking at this group of insects, Li Chengfeng already had a plan in mind.

He knew that to subdue these Gold-Devouring Insects, he had to sever their connection with the Insect Demon.

Therefore, he decided to use the Soul-Severing Technique.

At the same time, he also knew that Gold-Devouring Insects were similar to Spirit-Devouring Insects, both of which were extremely afraid of wood-type magical treasures. As soon as the magical treasure appeared, they would be paralyzed or trapped as if struck by lightning.

Thinking of this, Li Chengfeng smiled slightly, and a delicate flower basket appeared out of thin air in his hand.

This was a secret treasure he had specially created to collect Gold-Devouring Insects. The internal space was vast and filled with thorny wood spiritual energy.

Once the Gold-Devouring Insects were thrown into it, they would no longer be able to escape and could only obediently lie inside.

Having made preparations, Li Chengfeng immediately pinched his fingers to cast a spell. Suddenly, the seawater stirred violently, and a vortex suddenly formed around Shi Junchong. The insects were instantly teleported out.

Li Chengfeng held the flower basket in his hand and shook it violently. The flower basket instantly transformed into a size of a dozen feet. The surrounding thorny wood spiritual energy suddenly opened, like a giant net, catching more than a thousand Gold-Devouring Insects in one fell swoop.

Each of these Gold-Devouring Insects was the size of a walnut, ferocious and terrifying, and shone with golden light, but after falling into the flower basket, they crashed around like headless flies.

This scene shocked the Insect Demon Kang Wei. He suddenly became furious, broke through the air, roared, and directly used the Insect Controlling Technique.

The insects in the flower basket instantly rioted, frantically gnawing at the flower basket. Li Chengfeng felt his scalp tingle. These thousand Gold-Devouring Insects were not controlled by the thorny wood spiritual energy. His plan had failed.

Kang Wei laughed loudly, "I didn't expect you to know so much about my Gold-Devouring Insects, knowing that thorny wood spiritual energy can trap them.

But my insects have been improved in the second generation and have overcome this drawback. You brat, you are doomed today! No one who dares to plot against me, the Insect Demon, has ever survived.

You are the most promising one, but you didn't expect I had this countermeasure, did you?"

Li Chengfeng was indeed caught off guard, but he quickly adapted. His fingers flew, casting secret techniques, sealing off the world, sealing the flower basket together with the insects, turning it into a sphere.

The insects inside the sphere gnawed frantically, but could only devour the flower basket.

The Insect Demon Kang Wei was furious and used his methods again, emitting a sizzling demonic sound from his mouth. The sealed insects became even more violent and impacted the seal, but with each bite, the seal was strengthened. The more violent they became, the greater the power of the seal.

The Insect Demon Kang Wei's face finally changed drastically, and he asked, "What kind of magic is this? It's so powerful!"

Li Chengfeng sneered and replied, "To deal with you, I naturally prepared several methods.

If the first one doesn't work, there will naturally be a second or third one. Insect Demon Kang Wei, today you are doomed.

Under heaven, there is only one Insect Demon, and that is me—Cao Cao!"

Kang Wei's face changed drastically. He saw that with one sword strike, the insects were sealed, and his strength was instantly greatly reduced.

He roared, slammed his spirit beast bag, and with a buzzing sound, ten different Gold-Devouring Insects flew out.

These insects had light gray scales and sharp antennae. Their cultivation had reached the peak of the Second Order and were about to enter the ranks of Third-Order Spirit-Devouring Insects.

They were incredibly fast and instantly approached Li Chengfeng.

This was the Insect Demon Kang Wei's trump card. These insects were not only incredibly fast but also incredibly powerful, equivalent to the joint attack of ten Foundation Establishment Late Stage peak cultivators, demonstrating the terror of the Insect Demon.

Li Chengfeng's eyes narrowed, and with a wave of his hand, with a buzzing sound, five hundred Devouring Sky Insects broke through the air.

Kang Wei laughed and said, "Your insects are strong, but their level is still shallow."

However, before he could finish speaking, his brow furrowed, and his face showed pain. It turned out that the divine sense he used to control the insect swarm was being devoured.

The Gold-Devouring Insects could detect the enemy's position, but with one bite from the Devouring Sky Insects, the divine sense was damaged, and the soul was wounded. The insects fell one after another.

Before they could land, they were pounced upon and torn apart by the Devouring Sky Insects. The ferocity of their attack was evident.

The Devouring Sky Insects not only devoured divine sense but also devoured all spiritual power. The spiritual power of the Gold-Devouring Insects quickly disappeared under their sharp teeth, being completely devoured.

Seeing that the situation was over, Kang Wei roared repeatedly. A thunder pearl appeared in his hand, with purple lightning running over it. He threw it violently at Li Chengfeng.

Then, he stepped onto a top-grade flying boat, broke through the air, and fled, his face full of anxiety and helplessness.

He knew that he had encountered a strong enemy today. The other party's insects were not something he could contend with, and the other party seemed to know all his methods like the back of his hand, giving him a feeling of being targeted.

This Purple Thunder Pearl was priceless. It was obtained by killing hundreds of rogue cultivators, and its explosive power was comparable to a Foundation Establishment Late Stage strike. It was a specialty of the Xuan Guang Continent.

Li Chengfeng had long been prepared for this. With a casual gesture, he reversed the universe, and the thunder pearl disappeared out of thin air, appearing in front of Kang Wei the next moment.

Kang Wei was terrified and hurriedly turned the flying boat to dodge, but it was too late. The thunder ball exploded with a bang, and purple lightning danced like snakes, devouring him.

With a scream, Kang Wei was blasted to pieces by his own lightning, turning into green smoke, and even his soul failed to escape.
