C24 silkworm

The Sui City was a second level city of the Fine Stone Country. Although it was also a second level city, the strength of the Sui City's cultivators were much stronger than the Elemental Rock City's.

Because there was a small swamp in the western part of Sui City, where some Spirit Demon Beasts lived, it attracted many cultivators to hunt the Spirit Demon Beasts. The Sui City was not like the other Elemental Rock City, where the cultivators would trade in the city, but on a small mountain not far from the swamp.

Here, there were a total of four big forces, but the strongest power was not the branch sects of Fine Stone Sect like Elemental Rock City, but rather a local power here — — the Hidden Dragon Gang. It was said that this Hidden Dragon Gang's leader, the Hidden Dragon Institute's Hidden Dragon, was a Core Formation Cultivator. However, in the recent years, the Hidden Dragon Gang had been cultivating in seclusion, and the two peak late Foundation Establishment Vice Sect Masters were in charge.

The second power in Sui City was also a local powerhouse — the Wang family. This was a Immortal Cultivation Clan, with an early Core Formation stage cultivator and two peak late stage Foundation Establishment experts; the third power was a branch of the Fine Stone Sect, with two peak late stage Foundation Establishment experts. However, because the branch of the Fine Stone Sect was the branch of the Fine Stone Country's greatest power, the Wang family, it was not an ordinary place in the Sui City.

Although the Sect Master of the Fine Stone Sect Branch Sect had always been unwilling to be third, because of the existence of the Core Formation Stage expert from the Hidden Dragon Gang, and because the Wang Family also had the Core Formation Cultivator, the Sect Master of the Fine Stone Sect Branch Sect could only obediently be third. Although there were Core Formation experts in the Fine Stone Sect, the Main Sect did not want to offend the other two Core Formation Cultivator s just for the sake of a rank.

The last major power was the power where Zhuge Yun's arch enemy, the Gou's house, was located. The Gou's house had a peak late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, as well as a few late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators and a few other Foundation Establishment experts. The father who killed Zhuge Yun was a deacon in the Gou's house, a mid stage Foundation Establishment cultivator named Gou Di.

And all of this information regarding the Sui City was told to Li Ming by him on the way there with Li Ming. and Zhuge Yun had arrived at the Sui City three days ago and under Zhuge Yun's introduction, they chose a Cultivator's Inn that wasn't small to stay in the Sui City for the time being.

On the first day Li Ming came to the Sui City, he sold off some things that he did not need from Zhang Qi. And the small sword that he had obtained from Zhang Qi was a fourth grade weapon that Li Ming had never thought of selling for a total of 50 Medial Grade Spirit Stone s.

Once these weapons surpassed the range of low-grade weapons, the price would be vastly different. A third grade weapon was worth at most 10 Medial Grade Spirit Stone s and was even the best third grade weapon. But a fourth grade weapon, even the worst fourth grade weapon, would definitely be worth more than 35 Medial Grade Spirit Stone s. Once a weapon reached the category of intermediate weapons, it would be called a magical equipment and could be controlled with one's spiritual sense.

Initially, Li Ming had thought that he would only be able to control weapons after cultivating the Imperial Equipment Technique, but after getting Zhang Qi's memories, Li Ming then knew that weapons that were able to be controlled with his consciousness would at least need a fourth grade weapon.

And after Li Ming sold everything that he did not need, Li Ming obtained a total of 300 Medial Grade Spirit Stone s, and these spirit stones were already equivalent to the wealth of an ordinary Foundation Cultivator.

As for the rest of the time, Li Ming stayed in his room to research and study the Imperial Equipment.

At this time, in the Sui City, Li Ming was holding the jade cylinder he obtained from Zhang Qi that recorded the Imperial Technique.

Ever since Li Ming had sold all those unnecessary items in the Sui City, Li Ming had been testing whether or not he could use Sensory Perception of a Fighter to cultivate the Imperial Equipment. Even though he knew that this possibility was close to non-existent, Li Ming still did not give up. There was a saying, "The Heavens do not disappoint those who have put in effort." However, these words had become something else on Li Ming's body. Sometimes, even the Emperor will bear the grudges of others. In the past two days, Li Ming had used every method he could think of, but unfortunately, it was still impossible. Li Ming still could not find a way to cultivate.

Now that he had obtained the skill, he discovered that he couldn't cultivate it. This feeling was like having a beautiful naked girl waiting for his favor. However, when he wanted to practice it, he found out that his personality was impotent. Li Ming felt exactly the same way.

"Looks like I can only wait and see if I can cultivate it in the future. I'll think about it after I get rid of the Scarlet Fruit in the marshland!" But let's wait for tomorrow! " At this moment, the sky outside had already darkened, and going into the marshland at night was definitely not a good idea!

Early the next morning, Li Ming and Zhuge Yun left the Cultivator's Inn. However, it was obvious that the heavens were playing a joke on them. It was clearly a sunny day, but just as Li Ming and Yue Shan was about to go to the marshland, a heavy rain fell.

At this time, looking at the rainy sky outside, Zhuge Yun said to Li Ming: "Senior, do you want to wait for the rain to stop before going to the swamp?"

"There's no need. This sort of rain is no problem for us cultivators." Let's go to that swamp now! " It was just a little rain, to Li Ming, it didn't matter at all!

"I will listen to whatever senior says!" But are we going to go just like that? Don't you need to prepare something? "

"There's no need for that. It's just a late stage two crocodile. I'm not afraid of it." Li Ming said fearlessly. Actually, it wasn't that Li Ming didn't want to prepare anything, but rather, most of the things here were useless to Li Ming. Using the Poison Avoiding Pill as an example, ever since Li Ming had nearly died from a low level Spirit Increasing Pill breaking through his body, he had avoided the poison pills of this world.

"Senior, there are a lot of poisonous insects in that swamp. Should we prepare some Poison Avoiding Pills?" Zhuge Yun obviously still decided to be safe, so he continued to advise Li Ming.

"Since that's the case, prepare some Poison Avoiding Pills!" I'll wait here for you to come back. " Seeing Zhuge Yun being so persistent, Li Ming just let him be. After all, even though he was unable to consume the Poison Avoiding Pill, it did not mean that others were unable to consume the Poison Avoiding Pill as well.

Hearing that Li Ming agreed to prepare a Poison Avoiding Pill, Zhuge Yun responded and left to prepare a Poison Avoiding Pill.

After roughly a quarter of an hour, Zhuge Yun returned to Li Ming's side.

After seeing Zhuge Yun had returned, Li Ming and he headed in the direction of the marsh together.

At the entrance to the swamp in the western part of Sui City, although the sky was clear and the rain was heavy, the amount of cultivators that came here to hunt demon beasts did not decrease. At this time, in the crowd, a grey robed youth said to a female cultivator beside him, "This is the entrance to the swamp. Now, it's your turn to lead the way."

"Yes, Senior. Please come with me. " With that, the female cultivator led the way into the swamp. When the other cultivators beside them heard their conversation, they didn't have much of a reaction. After all, this kind of situation was too common here. However, when a skinny young cultivator among these cultivators saw this female cultivator speaking, he revealed a strange expression, but soon after, it disappeared. This couple was Li Ming and Zhuge Yun who just came out from Sui City.

After Li Ming and Zhuge Yun left the place, this young cultivator immediately walked towards the direction of the Sui City's Cultivation Exchange.

After a moment, the young cultivator arrived at Gou's house's encampment. Arriving outside a room, the young monk knocked on the door of the room.

"Dong Dong"

"Who is it? What's the matter? " Following the sound of knocking on the door, an inquiring voice could be heard from within the room.

"Reporting to Lord Enforcer, I wish to report this matter to Lord Enforcer." Gou Yu respectfully said from outside.

"Come in!"

"Yes." With a creaking sound, he entered the room.

"What do you want to report?" When the Gou's house deacon saw this person, he asked.

"Reporting to Lord Deacon, I just saw Zhuge Yun at the entrance of the swamp, along with a young grey robed cultivator with her." he respectfully said to Gou Di.

"What?" You saw Zhuge Yun? Is he Zhuge Yu's daughter, Zhuge Yun? " Gou Di suddenly shouted excitedly.

"Yes, that Zhuge Yun."

"Are you sure?"

"I am sure that it was definitely Zhuge Yu's daughter, Zhuge Yun. I had met Zhuge Yun before when they surrounded and killed Zhuge Yu. It must be right. " Ye Zichen said with certainty.

"It's really Zhuge Yun. I never thought that she would appear again after disappearing for more than a year. That year, we did not find that thing at Zhuge Yu's place. "Now, go and find the cultivator who surrounded Zhuge Yu and killed him. Tell him that we found traces of that thing and tell them that I'm waiting for them at the entrance of the swamp."

"Yes, Lord Deacon. I will immediately inform the other cultivators. This time, we will definitely find that item."

"Okay, after this matter is over, I will give you a Foundation Building Pill that can help you breakthrough to the current realm, the realm where you can reach Foundation Cultivator."

"Yes, Lord Deacon. This little one will definitely do a good job on this matter." After hearing Gou Di say that he would give a Foundation Building Pill as compensation for this operation, he immediately said emotionally. One had to know that he had been at Qi Disciple level 12 for several years now. Now that he had such an opportunity, of course he wouldn't give it up.

"Alright, now, quickly send this news to them."

"Yes, then I'll take my leave first." With that, he went down to inform the others.

Looking at the figure that was about to leave, Gou Di sneered: "Once you have the thing in your hands, it will be time for your death. Now I'll go to the swamp and wait for those guys. " With that, he flew towards the swamp.

And inside the marshland in the western part of Sui City, Li Ming was currently leading Zhuge Yun and was rushing towards the direction of Zhu Guo's location. They didn't know, that Zhuge Yun's whereabouts had already been discovered by Gou Di's arch enemy.

Right now, it had already been almost an hour since Li Ming and Zhuge Yun entered the sect. In this half an hour, the distance the two of them had traveled was only four to five li.

In this half an hour, Li Ming had almost gotten poisoned twice. If not for Zhuge Yun's quick reminder, perhaps he would have left the marshland halfway. But Zhuge Yun was different. Swallowing an antidote pill, ordinary poison to Zhuge Yun, wasn't even worth mentioning. During this period, Zhuge Yun had repeatedly given the detoxification pill to Li Ming, but Li Ming still rejected Zhuge Yun's good intentions due to the fact that it was a matter of his own life.

However, even though Li Ming was extremely envious seeing that he was not affected by the poison in the slightest, Li Ming knew that there were some things that could not be easily attempted. Otherwise, the consequences of having a bad life would not be good!

"How far is it to the place with the Scarlet Fruit?" After another half an hour, Li Ming was truly speechless towards this swamp. In this half hour, Li Ming encountered a large number of poisonous grasses, poisonous bugs, and poisonous beasts. Although with the strength of his cultivation, the poisonous creatures did not injure Li Ming, but Li Ming was still worried. Before he could get there, he was already injured by the poisonous creatures.

"Senior, this place is not far from here. With our current speed, we will reach there in about an hour." But Senior, do you really not need the antidote pill? " Hearing Li Ming's question, Zhuge Yun immediately responded respectfully, and casually asked Li Ming one more time if he wanted to take the antidote pill.

Ever since he had entered the swamp with Li Ming, Zhuge Yun realized how ignorant this senior Immortal Cultivation World behind him was towards the common sense of cultivation in this continent. However, when he thought about the difference between his own cultivation and Li Ming's, Zhuge Yun rationally did not ask about it, thinking that Li Ming had been training hard all year, and did not understand anything about it. Otherwise, given how young Li Ming was, how could he have such a profound cultivation?

"Another hour?"

"Yes, Senior." However, Senior, you don't have to worry. We will enter into the Fire Worm territory after a while. Where the poison is, there will not be even the slightest bit of it.

"Fire silkworm?" What kind of demon beast was this? How come I've never heard of it? "

"Senior has been cultivating all year round, it is not strange that he doesn't know about the existence of the fire silkworm. Furthermore, in other parts of the Fine Stone Country, there are very few cultivators that know about the fire silkworm. This little girl has only heard of this kind of fire silkworm in the Lihuo Country and here. In other places, I have never heard of this either. As far as I know, the fire silkworm is a fire type demon beast, and it is very rare. It lives in a place where flames flourish all year round, and the newly born fire silkworm can reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and the young fire silkworm can reach the peak Foundation Establishment stage. Some of the more outstanding ones can even reach the Core Period. As for the adult fire silkworm, I don't know the specifics of the situation, but it is said that the adult fire silkworm had appeared once in the Kingdom of Li Huo, and the adult fire silkworm's cultivation reached the level of Level Four demon beast. "

"It's pretty amazing!" "Is this kind of fire silkworm rare?"

"The fire silkworm is indeed powerful, and very rare, but because of the fire silk, the fire silkworm was surrounded and killed by a large number of cultivators in the Kingdom of Li Huo, causing the fire silkworm to become increasingly sparse."

"fire silk? Is that all right? "

"Senior, you might not know this, but these kind of young fire silk can reach the hardness of a third-grade weapon. If they were refined by an outstanding refiner, they could reach the hardness of a fourth-grade weapon. However, the toughness of an adult fire silk can reach the point where it can't be cut down by Grade 5 weapons, and those that have been refined by a refiner can reach the point where they can't be cut down by Grade 6 weapons. That's why the fire silkworm is surrounded and killed by a large number of cultivators. "

"So it's like that! However, didn't you say that silkworms are very rare? Then why is it that even though he owned a fire silkworm, no cultivators came to kill it? "

Senior, do you know that it is not that no cultivators came to kill this fire silkworm, it is just that no one among the cultivators came to find the fire silkworm. Besides, besides the first time it was discovered by someone, no one else had ever found the fire silkworm before, but it is certain that this fire silkworm has always been here, and it has also killed all the poisonous creatures here.

"In other words, this fire silkworm's cultivation is at least at the second level middle stage. However, this is not a place where the flames flourish. Why would this fire silkworm live here? "

"Why does this fire silkworm live in this place without flames, this little girl doesn't know." However, how can Senior be so sure that this fire silkworm is a rank two middle stage demon beast? "

"I just said that this fire silkworm had killed all the poisonous creatures here, and when we came here, we encountered a lot of early stage second level demon beasts. If this fire silkworm didn't have a mid second level cultivation, we wouldn't have been able to kill all the poisonous creatures here." Just now, when they were entering, Li Ming and Yue Shan had met many Level Two Initial Stage Beasts, however, because Zhuge Yun's cultivation was not high, they could not see the Rank of the Beasts. However, with Li Ming's cultivation at the early Houtian realm, the level of the beasts was no longer a secret.
