Chapter 618: Mahayana of the Helian Merchant Alliance
After swallowing these lightnings, changes began to brew in the thirty candidates for insect kings.
A violent and bloodthirsty aura slowly rose from them, and they suddenly fell into a state of anxiety, with bloodshot eyes, squeaking, buzzing, and staring at each other.
Suddenly, as if they had received some signal, this group of candidates for insect king immediately rushed together and started fighting each other frantically.
At the same time, fairy sounds rang out in the sky, and wisps of gray-white light appeared, rushing towards Ye Changsheng.
The inner demon calamity!
As countless gray-white light threads appeared, they gradually condensed into circles of gray-white rays of light. These circles of light condensed together and formed a monster in the blink of an eye.
A huge green-faced ghost head, as big as a hill, with a hideous face and exuding a strange aura.
With its appearance, everything around him seemed to become illusory, and Ye Changsheng only felt that one inexplicable force after another was impacting his mind.
His expression suddenly turned cold, and his eyes as sharp as a knife looked at the ghost head opposite him.
This is the arrival of the true form of the Demon Lord from Outer Space. It can be said to be the highest level of the Mahayana Heart Demon Tribulation, the kind that ordinary people can never survive.
You know, the Demon Lord from Outer Space is at least equivalent to a true spirit.
“Hehehe!”
The green-faced ghost let out a strange laugh, his eyes suddenly opened, he looked at Ye Changsheng, and was about to utter some wild words.
"Boy, you..."
Before he could finish his words, the expression of this green-faced, fang-toothed demon king suddenly froze, and he stared at Ye Changsheng again and again with eyes full of disbelief.
"Bang!"
There was a loud bang, and the body of the Demon Lord from Outer Space suddenly shattered, turning into countless black lines and dissipating in all directions.
Run away!
Without even trying, after looking at Ye Changsheng a few times, this being should have been the biggest test of his heavenly tribulation, he simply fled without a fight.
Ye Changsheng touched his chin, speechless.
After the Demon Lord from Outer Space disappeared, the Mahayana Heavenly Tribulation also ended. The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the depressing aura of destruction slowly disappeared.
Ye Changsheng looked around and saw that not far away, the candidates for the Insect King were all screaming miserably with wounds all over their bodies, and they were also biting each other, trying desperately to devour each other with their strongest magical powers.
The strength of each candidate for the Insect King is almost the same. If you want to really decide life and death, it is obviously not something that can be done in a short period of time. It will require a long fight to complete.
Ye Changsheng just waited like this.
Obviously, his heavenly tribulation is completely different from the heavenly tribulation experienced by other Mahayana practitioners. After other Mahayana practitioners have passed the heavenly tribulation, they usually have a chance to infuse the three yangs into their bodies and rebuild their physical bodies.
But after he crossed it, it just ended, there was nothing.
This was naturally because of the process of reshaping his physical body, which he had already completed when he was in the true spirit egg. That transformation directly transformed his physical body from that comparable to an ordinary true spirit to that comparable to a true dragon or phoenix.
In fact, he had already completed the entire process of breaking through to the Mahayana stage in that new world, and he only needed to go through a heavenly tribulation as a formality.
Now, after making up for the ticket of heavenly tribulation, he has truly gained the recognition of heaven and earth and become an early stage Mahayana cultivator.
Ye Changsheng cast his gaze towards the gold-eating bugs fighting each other, and sat cross-legged in the void, waiting quietly.
This wait lasted for more than a month, and the number of gold-eating beetles continued to decrease. In the end, there were only three left.
These three gold-eating bugs are not only several times larger than before, but their appearances are also becoming more ferocious.
The deep purple stripes on its back vaguely formed the shape of lightning, which was shocking .
At this stage, you become the so-called half-step insect king!
Going a step further, when these three gold-eating bugs devour each other and only one is left, it will be the so-called bug king.
Almost every one of the three half-step insect kings has an aura that is infinitely close to that of a Mahayana cultivator. To some extent, each of them can be regarded as a Mahayana-level fighter.
After all, the gold-eating worm's body is so powerful that no one can match it.
The mature form of the gold-eating beetle alone is already indestructible. Even Mahayana-level beings cannot break its shell. And now that it has evolved to this point, I'm afraid that there is no power in the entire spiritual world that can break its defense.
A gold-eating bug that can't be killed no matter how hard you try and devours everything. Even Mahayana monks have to avoid it when they see it.
Ye Changsheng looked at the three half-step insect kings and tried to urge them with his spiritual power. The next moment, the wings of the three golden giant insects trembled and they immediately turned into balls of golden light and flew in all directions.
With the urging of his spiritual thoughts, the three half-step insect kings moved as smoothly as if they were his own arms, without any problems.
"Yes, now we have three Mahayana-level fighters. After we kill the mother of the borer and obtain its crystal core, we can cultivate a true insect king!"
"In the original novel, Han Li's three half-step insect kings were devoured by thirteen insect king candidates, while mine was devoured by thirty insect king candidates. After these three become insect kings after devouring each other, they should be stronger than Han Li's in the original novel!"
"Moreover, I can copy the crystal core of the mother of corn borers in large quantities to feed the Insect King. When Ma Liang goes to the lower world, I may not even need to do anything. The Insect King can swallow him up!" Ye Changsheng thought secretly in his heart.
With a wave of his hand, he took the three half-step insect kings into his body.
Now, he is full of expectations for the Insect King and the Mother of Borers.
Perhaps it is possible to raise a gold-eating beetle king of the same level as the mother of borers in the underworld!
"From now on, the world is so big that I can travel as much as I want!" Ye Changsheng looked at the empty sea on all sides, and a sense of pride suddenly rose in his heart.
With his current strength, there are only a few people in the entire Xiaonanzhou interface group who can pose a threat to him.
In this spiritual world, apart from the Spirit King and the skeleton immortal who was in hiding, there was really nothing else he should be afraid of.
Even creatures like the Seven-Headed Owl were killed by him. If he encountered an ordinary true spirit, it would probably only take one or two swords to deal with it.
It’s hard to say how many rounds those old monsters in the spiritual world who are in the Tribulation Crossing Stage can last if they fall into his hands.
At least Ye Changsheng dared to guarantee that none of these old guys could fight against a monster like the Seven-Headed Owl.
A light flashed in Ye Changsheng's hand, and a round ball the size of a human head appeared, shining with colorful light all over.
The moment this colorful sphere appeared, a terrifying and murderous aura spread from it, which was enough to drive people crazy.
This is the inner elixir of the Seven-Headed Owl!
The inner elixir of the seven-headed owl is the most evil thing in the world. Whether you absorb the evil spirit in it to cultivate supernatural powers, or directly use it as material to refine treasures, it will be of infinite benefit.
This thing is something that can cause countless Mahayana monks to lose everything they have.
"The true spirit is full of treasures. Let alone other things, I wonder how many top-notch spiritual treasures can be refined from the body of the seven-headed owl alone!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
It is a pity that this is an evil spirit whose flesh and blood cannot be devoured, otherwise it would be able to create a large number of powerful people.
With a wave of his hand, the inner elixir disappeared, and Ye Changsheng's figure flashed and flew towards the land.
…
In the northwest corner of Fengyuan Continent, in Tianyuan City that guards both the human and demon races, Mo Jianli, who has extremely long ears that hang down to his shoulders and a kind face, is smiling and talking to an old man with equally white hair opposite him.
The old man had an extremely long horse face with several , making him look extremely ugly.
"Friend Mo, when will Friend Ye from your human race come back? I have been waiting here for more than two years!"
The old man asked Mo Jianli with a somewhat ugly look. Such an experience was really rare for him.
As a priest of the Chamber of Commerce, no matter where he went, he was always warmly received. It had never happened like today, when he wanted to meet a cultivator in the fusion stage but couldn't.
"Haha, Brother Lin, I'm really sorry. Before Fellow Daoist Ye left, he told me that he was going to meet a senior named Tian Feng. He hasn't come back yet. Maybe the senior named Tian Feng kept him here for something!"
"If Brother Lin really can't wait, you might as well go back for the time being. When Fellow Daoist Ye arrives, I will definitely inform you as soon as possible!"
"Hmph, your human race is located in such a remote area, and there is not even a teleportation array. It will take me a long time to go back and forth. Now that I haven't seen you, how can I explain to the chief deacon?" said the horse-faced old man with a look of deep dissatisfaction.
Hearing the words "Chief Deacon", Mo Jianli's expression changed. He forced a smile and sighed:
"There's nothing we can do about it. I definitely don't want to delay Fellow Daoist Mingzun's business, but Fellow Daoist Ye is staying with Senior Tianfeng. I can't let me forcibly drag Fellow Daoist Ye back, right?"
"How about this, if Brother Lin really can't wait, why don't you go to Phoenix Nest and ask Brother Daoist Ye in person?"
Mo Jianli's words immediately made the horse-faced old man's expression change. Is it possible for someone like him to go to the Phoenix Nest?
But he was unwilling to show weakness in front of a small clan, so he snorted coldly: "Whether to go to Phoenix Nest or not, our business alliance will make its own decision, but Fellow Daoist Mo, I still have something to remind you!"
"Brother Lin, please speak!" Mo Jianli smiled kindly.
"I don't know how Fellow Daoist Ye from your human race got involved with Senior Tianfeng, but I have to remind you that it's best not to lie about things like this!"
"If the nobles actually have nothing to do with Tianfeng, haha, even if our business alliance doesn't mind this, there will definitely be many people in the spirit world who will cause trouble for you humans!"
"Those phoenix Mahayana masters would probably be very concerned about this kind of thing. If they knew the news, they might have to come to visit the human race!" said the horse-faced old man slowly.
Just as he said, if the news that Ye Changsheng knew Tianfeng spread, there would probably be many bird-like Mahayana beings who would come to visit the human race out of curiosity.
And if they find out that this is false, the consequences can be imagined.
With so many great bird-like masters, even the Helian Merchant Alliance definitely doesn't want to provoke them.
Mo Jianli felt somewhat uneasy when he heard this. He secretly thought, "Fellow Daoist Ye, please don't cheat me!"
However, he still smiled kindly and said, "Of course, I know this clearly. In this world, there is probably no one who dares to cheat by posing as a Heavenly Phoenix Spirit!"
"Haha, that's good, but I will wait here for a few more months at most. If Fellow Daoist Ye hasn't come back by then, I will return to the Merchant Alliance!"
"But I cannot predict what measures the Chamber of Commerce will take after I return. Now I can still talk to Fellow Daoist Mo in a friendly manner, but if Fellow Daoist Mingzun makes any decision, it is hard to say what will happen!" said the old man with a horse face.
Mo Jianli pretended not to hear the threat in the other party's words, laughed and said: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lin, no matter what, we humans will give the Merchant Alliance an explanation!"
The horse-faced old man chuckled twice with a forced smile upon hearing this, and was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed and he looked outside Tianyuan City. At the same time, Mo Jianli also opened his eyes wide and looked outside.
From afar, a figure slowly emerged from the wilderness at the horizon , and then walked towards Tianyuan City casually as if taking a leisurely stroll in the garden. His speed seemed slow but was actually fast, and he arrived in front of the Tianyuan city wall in the blink of an eye.
When Mo Jianli saw this person, a look of surprise first flashed across his eyes, and when his gaze briefly swept over this person, he immediately became extremely surprised.
"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Ye is back!" Mo Jianli laughed loudly, stood up, and said to the horse-faced old man beside him with great joy.
With Mo Jianli's eyesight, it was not difficult to see that the current Ye Changsheng was very different from the one before he left Tianyuan City.
It was not difficult for Mo Jianli to guess the reason for this difference.
Thinking of what Ye Changsheng said before he left Tianyuan City, Mo Jianli became slightly excited and thought to himself:
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you have indeed advanced to the Mahayana stage. With your current strength, I'm afraid you are much stronger than that old ghost Ao Xiao, right?"
"Is this person the Fellow Daoist Ye from your human race? Isn't he said to be a fusion cultivator?" The horse-faced old man also stood up suddenly and asked with surprise in his eyes.
When he looked over, he happened to meet the other person's gaze. When he looked into those eyes, the horse-faced old man felt a chill in his heart and even a sense of fear for a moment.
He felt like an ordinary person encountering a ferocious beast and could be torn to pieces easily.
"Has this person advanced to the Mahayana stage? This strength..."
A trace of horror flashed through the heart of the horse-faced old man. For a moment, a hint of gloom appeared between his brows and his expression became a little solemn.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you are finally back. Was your trip going well?" Mo Jianli laughed loudly, took a step forward, appeared on the wall of Tianyuan City and asked.
Seeing this kind-looking old man, Ye Changsheng smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, Brother Mo!"
