more, the aura fluctuations emanating from the Voidworm are almost non-existent. This is perhaps due to its consumption of too many formation and restriction barriers. 。Originally, releasing a Spirit...“You killed those innocent mortals on Niushou Mountain. Have you ever considered letting them live” Lu Xia Tian’s eyes turned cold, his index finger pinching a series of incantations as several spells shot out.
The female cultivator with phoenix eyes resisted for a while, then desperately fled into a river near Niushou Mountain, attempting to use the water's cover to escape.
“You think you can hide in the river and I won't be able to get you” Lu Xia Tian chuckled, he had several ways to force his opponent to surface. Without a moment’s hesitation, Lu Xia Tian launched several strands of Lei Wang Shu. The lightning-laced nets whooshed into the water, causing the fish in the river to suffer as collateral damage, being electrocuted all over.
A muffled cry echoed from beneath the water. A shadowy figure struggled against the fishing net that trapped it, thrashing wildly in the depths. The power of the Thunder Net technique was amplified underwater, proving to be even more formidable than usual.
"Water Blast!" "Ice Arrow!"
Two water mines electrocuted the female cultivator with phoenix eyes, paralyzing her whole body and shattering her protective shield. Then, dozens of ice arrows shot into the water like lightning. Lu Xiaoteng turned around without looking back and flew away on the wind. After walking dozens of feet, blood surged from the river behind him, and a corpse with several ice arrows sticking out of it floated to the surface.

"Death is like the extinguishing of a lamp, condolences." Back at the scene of the recent battle, Lu Xia Tian comforted Wang Zhi Han.
Ong Zhihan wiped the tears from his face, let out a heavy sigh, and hastily buried the female corpse. He burned some yellow paper and red candles.
After paying respects to his own daughter, Weng Zhihan took the storage bags of the man in black armor and the other cultivator in the middle stage of Qi refinement. He handed them over to Lu Xia Tian without taking a single copper coin.
There wasn't anything valuable inside. Lu Xia Tian only took a few spirit stones from it, and gave the rest to Weng Zhihan. After thanking Lu Xia Tian, Weng Zhihan mentioned that his daughter had an heirloom he had given her before. Now that his daughter was harmed, it was likely taken by bandits. Weng Zhihan wanted to retrieve the heirloom, and Lu Xia Tian readily agreed.
One hour later, Weng Zhihan had searched all over Niushou Mountain but finally found a square inkstone that was only slightly larger than an ordinary one. Besides its size, it had nothing remarkable about it. Perhaps his daughter was a cultured lady with literary talent. Weng Zhihan treasured the inkstone and carefully put it in his package before setting off again with Lu Xiaoteng.
The next day, a swamp shrouded in smoke and haze. An elderly man and a young boy cautiously walked along the edge of the mire, their expressions wary.
Hum.....
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A swarm of sixty to seventy yellow flies rose from the mud, buzzing towards Ong Zhihan and Lu Xiaoxian, the two strangers.
“How come there are so many flying insects!”
In the mire, not only miasma and poisonous mist roamed, but also countless monsters and insects like venomous scorpions, mosquitoes, and spiders attacked incessantly. Against some low-level spirits, Lu Xiaoteng showed no sign of respecting the elderly. In most cases, he let Weng Zhihan take action. Although they hadn't encountered too dangerous monsters, Weng Zhihan had been struggling all the way. Even though he was already in the late stage of Qi refining, he felt powerless. Now, there were sixty or seventy flying mosquitoes again. Blocking the mosquitoes with his spiritual shield and slashing them with his spirit sword was quite troublesome. These mosquitoes were extremely agile, and spells were relatively effective against them, but Weng Zhihan's control over the precise casting of spells wasn't very good. Therefore, Weng Zhihan couldn't help but look at Lu Xiaoteng.
Lu Xia Tian was just about to use the Fire Rain Technique to incinerate these flying mosquitoes, but the Ying Ants in the Jade Gourd transmitted a wave of agitation, seemingly quite excited. It seemed they had encountered a delicious prey. Lu Xia Tian pondered for a moment and released the Ying Ants. Since entering the peak of Qi Condensation, his divine sense had greatly increased. At this time, he could control nearly one hundred and fifty Ying Ants. Flying out was still a dense black mass, densely packed.
"Insect cultivator!" Weng Zhihan's throat felt a dryness. He had originally thought that Lu Xiaottian's spells were so powerful and effortlessly killed several cultivators, including the black-armored middle-aged man. He thought Lu Xiaottian was a rare person who had cultivated his spells to an extremely high level. The reason he entered the Blackwater Village mine was to use the spirit stones inside to practice his spells. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaottian's proficiency wasn't just in spells; it turned out that he was also a powerful insect cultivator.
Over a hundred or so shadow ants, a bit more than the number of flies, were commanded by Lu Xia Tian. The shadow ants divided into several teams to encircle the swarm of flies, biting and consuming these highly venomous flies within moments, leaving none behind.
"Lu Gongzi's these shadow ants are truly impressive!" said Weng Zhihan, full of admiration.
“How far is it to the secret room you mentioned” Lu Xiaoxiao didn’t take Weng Zhihan’s praise to heart, retracted the well-fed shadow ants after their meal, and asked.
"About two hours from now, but the miasma and poisonous mist will become even denser in the later part. I'm afraid we'll need to collect some antidote herbs. Why don't you, Master Lu, rest for a while This old servant remembers a place where this kind of medicinal herb grows. I'll go and collect some and come back."
Lu Xia Tian frowned and said, "If you go alone, what if there's danger"
Wong Zhihan laughed and said, "That place has few demons and venomous insects, but it's a bit troublesome to collect spiritual herbs. It just takes some time, this kind of simple work can be done by the little ones, so there's no need for Young Master Lu to do it himself."
Lu Xia Tian was about to say something when suddenly another spirit worm bag seemed to stir. A glimmer of joy flashed in Lu Xia Tian's eyes, and after a moment's hesitation, he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll stay here. Hurry up and come back."
“Well, in less than an hour, I will definitely be back.” Ong Zhihan nodded eagerly.
Watching Weng Zhihan's retreating figure, Lu Xia tian revealed a thoughtful expression. It wasn't until the other party had completely disappeared that Lu Xia tian untied the other spirit insect pouch at his waist. Opening the bag, several orange-yellow eggs rolled out.
Lu Xia tian was delighted to find that a tiny crack had appeared on the surface of an insect egg.
“Fantastic! After over six years of cultivating with mana, I finally have a broken boundary worm egg that’s about to hatch.”
With no one around, Lu Xia Tian could no longer suppress his emotions. His face filled with joy as he watched the yellow insect egg with a crack grow wider and wider. A finger-long, pale yellow worm emerged from the egg. Its body was segmented and resembled a centipede, but its head looked like that of a silkworm.
“Chirp... chirp...” The boundary insect devoured its eggshell mouthful by mouthful, the yellow of its body deepening a little.
"It seems like I'll have to have you, little fella, recognize your master in advance. Otherwise, the changes that might occur later might be beyond our capabilities." Lu Xia Tian muttered softly. His right thumb nail scraped against his middle finger, and a drop of blood landed on the worm's body.

"Chirp..." The breach worm screamed, but as it was just born, it didn't resist the cultivator's spiritual energy as strongly as a fully grown one. The breach worm struggled for a moment before submitting.
“After much anticipation, here you are! It wasn’t easy hatching you, little one.”gh he couldn't do anything to Ye Qianxin's main body, Ci Zi You Lian was still protected by Ye Qianxin. It doesn't matter if he didn't get any benefit. 。If he were to be caught by someone else merging...
