Chapter 2211

In the Divine Tour World, it has been an ancient legend that there is a group of special insects on this land. These insects are the Nemesis of all living beings. No matter how strong the strength or how high the cultivation base is, they are not the opponents of this group of insects. Moreover, they can never be killed and will continuously devour the bodies of living beings to grow and strengthen.

These insects are called Saint Insects by the living beings in the Divine Tour World！

When the Saint Insects first appeared, there was no sign. No one knew where they came from exactly, and no one cared because they were still very weak at that time.

However, as time passed and they continuously devoured and grew stronger, the horror of these Saint Insects gradually became known.

Wherever they passed, all living beings disappeared completely. Wherever they built their nests, no one dared to approach within a radius of one million miles.

In the ancient years in the legend, there were countless powerful people in the Divine Tour World, and there were everywhere the third-level Jing of the Emperor Supreme!

When the Saint Insects had become a disaster these powerful people could no longer sit back and ignore it. So they united and prepared to go all out to wipe out these Saint Insects that were causing disasters throughout the world.

No one knows what exactly happened in that battle.

But it was also after that battle that all the powerful people in the Divine Tour World disappeared, and the terrifying Saint Insects that made people tremble with fear and change color also disappeared together.

Some people guessed that those powerhouses perished together with the Saint Insects. Otherwise, how could the final result be explained？ Some also guessed that those powerhouses wiped out all the Saint Insects and then went into hiding, fleeing to the mountains and forests with their true identities concealed. Even more people guessed that the Saint Insects devoured all those powerhouses and were evolving and transforming in some unknown place. If one day the Saint Insects reappeared, it would surely be the end of the entire world！

This was all just rumors. No one had ever believed them, nor had anyone seen the so-called Saint Insects, and they had no idea what they actually looked like.

Almost no one took the so-called Saint Insects seriously.

But today, here, Ban Qing understood that the rumors were not fabricated. There really were Saint Insects that could make people feel despair in this world. These tiny insects were just like what was described in the rumors. They fed on the energy within the bodies of living beings, could not be killed, could not be wiped out. One could only watch helplessly as they slowly grew stronger and then swept across the world, turning the entire world into a scorched earth.

The ancient rumors that had been passed down suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and Ban Qing had completely lost the desire to fight against Yang Kai.

He simply couldn’t figure it out. Yang Kai, a martial artist at the Dao Source Realm, how could he control the Saint Insects to fight for him？ Wasn’t he afraid that these Saint Insects would devour him until not even a bone was left？

Miserable howls and fierce roars resounded leisurely. Ban Qing struggled painfully as if he had fallen into the abyss of eternal damnation and was facing unbearable torture. When those Soul Devouring Insects rampaged and devoured his soul energy within his body, Ban Qing experienced the fear and despair of his soul being gradually nibbled away.

He was like a madman, wantonly unleashing his power. All kinds of astonishing and miraculous soul secret techniques that Yang Kai had never seen or thought of were unleashed in his hands.

The surrounding space became unstable.

Yang Kai quickly evaded and looked at Ban Qing from a distance.

He also didn’t expect that after this Emperor Senior Stage powerhouse shouted a sentence, he seemed to have gone crazy.

“Do the Soul Devouring Insects have any relationship with this world？ Otherwise, why would he say that these are Saint Insects…” Yang Kai furrowed his brows and thought hard, unable to figure out the reason. However, the current situation was undoubtedly what he hoped to see the most.

Previously, he used the Soul Severing Blade to launch a surprise attack and took advantage of Ban Qing’s blind spot in vision to attack with the Soul Devouring Insects again. Although both were successful, if this Emperor Senior Stage powerhouse insisted on escaping, Yang Kai really didn’t have any good way to stop him.

His Space Principle power might not necessarily be able to restrain the actions of an Emperor Senior Stage martial artist.

Once Ban Qing escaped and revealed his information to others, his advantage would be completely wiped out.

At this moment, Ban Qing looked like a madman, trapped in a helpless despair. Moreover, judging from the situation, it seemed that he was going to end his life in this way, which was a welcome sight for Yang Kai.

After all, he was a Emperor Senior Stage expert. Even though Ban Qing had gone crazy and his actions had no pattern, the Soul Devouring Insects couldn’t completely devour him in a short while.

Yang Kai didn’t bother to provoke him either. He just watched him from a distance, waiting for an opportunity to act…

And as time passed, the aura on Ban Qing became weaker and weaker. He dropped from the Emperor Senior Stage to the Dao Source Stage, then to the Void King Stage, and the Return to Void Stage…

A full hour later, Ban Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks and stood there motionless.

Immediately following that, accompanied by a loud bang, Ban Qing’s entire person exploded, transforming into specks of fluorescent light and dissipating between heaven and earth.

The Emperor Venerable has fallen！

And in the position where he disappeared, a cloud of insects tumbled, wriggled, and flew up and down.

After devouring all the energy of a powerhouse at the Emperor Venerable Realm, the Soul Devouring Insects seemed to have made considerable progress. Yang Kai discovered that their auras were significantly stronger.

He released his spiritual thoughts, wanting to take these Soul Eater Insects back. But to his unease, these Soul Eater Insects actually turned a deaf ear to his orders and instead had the intention to leave this place.

Yang Kai was greatly alarmed.

Although the Soul Devouring Insects have not been of much use to him over the years, after this trip, the Soul Devouring Insects will undoubtedly grow and become one of his trump cards. And if he loses control of the Soul Devouring Insects at this time, he will also lose a means to deal with the enemy in the following training.

Moreover, this is the World. If a being like the Soul Devouring Insects are allowed to wreak havoc in this world Yang Kai doesn’t even dare to imagine what will happen in the end.

In the outside world, there may be other ways to deal with the Soul Devouring Insects. Here, all living beings have the soul energy as their main body, which is simply the food of the Soul Devouring Insects.

They will continue to grow and become stronger, and finally devour the entire world.

So no matter what, Yang Kai doesn’t dare and won’t leave the Soul Devouring Insects here.

He had already discovered before that the Soul Devouring Insects showed some signs of resisting his orders, and this sign became more and more obvious as they grew. Now they are directly ignoring him！

Yang Kai is naturally both anxious and angry.

He continuously drives his spiritual thoughts and transmitted messages to the Soul Devouring Insects, but with little effect.

Under no choice, Yang Kai can only drive the power of the Warm God Lotus in his body. In an instant colorful rays of light bloom and radiate out in all directions.

And this move really worked. Perhaps because the Soul Devouring Insects had always lived on the Warm God Lotus and already regarded the Warm God Lotus as their home, when the multicolored rays of light bloomed, they buzzed and turned into a cloud of insects and flew back towards Yang Kai.

Yang Kai couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. With a flick of his sleeve, he took them in.

Standing there, Yang Kai’s brows were tightly furrowed as he silently sensed the movements of the Soul Devouring Insects.

Strangely enough, after being taken back, the Soul Devouring Insects suddenly became quiet and were not as unruly as they had been just now.

However, this incident made Yang Kai realize a problem – he really had to quickly refine the Slave Insect Bracelet. Otherwise, when the Soul Devouring Insects became even stronger, he would lose the means to enslave them.

And the Slave Insect Bracelet was a secret treasure of the Insect Emperor, capable of subduing all the strange insects and beasts in the world. Naturally, it was the best tool to enslave the Soul Devouring Insects.

Although this battle was extremely dangerous, it actually didn’t have much effect on Yang Kai’s growth. Because the reason why this battle was won so easily was entirely due to the power of the Emperor Treasure and the Soul Devouring Insects. Yang Kai himself didn’t exert much effort.

However, speaking of it, Ban Qing could be considered the first Emperor Senior Stage he had killed. Even if it was an Emperor Senior Stage without a physical body and only a soul body, it wasn’t that easy to kill.

If it were placed in the outside world, Yang Kai definitely wouldn’t be able to do such a thing.

After carefully reflecting on it, Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a bit scared. If Ban Qing had used the assassination supernatural power he was most proficient in from the beginning, perhaps he wouldn’t even have had the chance to resist. Fortunately, the order Ban Qing received was to capture him alive, so it gave Yang Kai such an opportunity.

He let out a soft breath, furrowed his brows and pondered for a moment, not knowing where he should go now…

According to what Ban Qing said, the periphery of the Heavenly Monster Mountain has now been blocked, and there are many martial artists under the leadership of Zhou Dian who are capturing the so-called bane star. He definitely can’t leave the Heavenly Monster Mountain now, and it’s not an option to continue staying in the same place. It seems that he can only continue to go deeper inside, hoping to escape this disaster.

Having thought of this, Yang Kai secretly made up his mind.

Turning his head and looking around, Yang Kai’s gaze fell on the middle-aged man who had fainted on the ground. This guy didn’t know what means Ban Qing had used to knock him unconscious, and until now, there was no sign of him waking up.

Yang Kai had no relatives or acquaintances with him, and no grudges or enmities, so naturally he didn’t bother to pay attention to him and just let him stay here to fend for himself.

He continued to search, and his gaze was quickly fixed in a certain direction. He grinned and waved his hand towards that side.

Behind a tree, the Purple Civet cat was looking around furtively. Its small eyes were full of spirituality. After confirming that it was safe, it then tiptoed out and slowly came to Yang Kai’s, looking at him concerned ly as if asking if he was injured.

Yang Kai smiled slightly, bent down and reached out, picked it up, put it on his shoulder, identified the direction, and rushed towards the depths of the Heavenly Monster Mountain.

……

I don’t know how many tens of thousands of miles away from the Heavenly Monster Mountain, in a valley surrounded by mountains on all sides.

This valley is extremely huge with a diffuse of fog inside. People living nearby all call it Fog Valley.

The fog spreads in the valley never dissipates all year round extremely thick. Once you enter it you can’t see your fingers, and it looks extremely strange. Although this fog is harmless to living beings, once you enter it, it seems that you will completely lose your sense of direction.

From time to time, there are bold guys among the nearby residents who want to explore Fog Valley, wanting to know what secrets are hidden inside and what magical features it has. But regardless of the level of cultivation, as long as you enter Fog Valley, you will lose your sense of direction within a short while and then get lost in it.

No one has ever found a way out.

But no one has ever been completely trapped and died inside.

Because whenever these people are trapped to the point of despair, an invisible force will send them out.
