Chapter 594: Blockade, Undeserved Calamity

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

BOOM!

At this moment, the surrounding Pure Yang and Sun Fires became increasingly fierce in power.

Many of the Spirit Devouring Beetles turned to ashes before even approaching Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Even the few beetles that did get close were promptly slain by the couple.

It was evident that the number of Spirit Devouring Beetles that perished before them far exceeded the number they had encountered outside earlier.

However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan clearly did not intend to keep battling with them indefinitely.

Shen Ruyan raised her hand to summon the Falling Thunder Heavenly Seal. Rumble!

Instantly, thunderbolts poured from the Falling Thunder Heavenly Seal.

Along with Jiang Chengxuan’s Pure Yang and True Sun Fires, within moments, there were no living Spirit Devouring Beetles within thousands of meters.

The couple continued to advance against the incoming beetles.

Finally.

After some time had passed, their view suddenly opened up.

They saw a gigantic Spirit Devouring Beetle King next to a massive stalactite.

The beetle king was silver-white with compound eyes on its forehead, seven or eight pairs of limbs underneath, and a hard shell on its back resembling a diamond. It appeared before Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

However, at this moment, their attention wasn’t on the Spirit Devouring Beetle King, but on a large pool behind it, covered in a misty surface.

“That is? Millennium-aged Spirit Spring Marrow!”

Both of them gasped at the sight.

This was one of the most precious spiritual treasures for cultivators.

Not only could it cleanse impurities in one’s Dharmic power and boost cultivation levels, but most importantly, it could counteract the inner demons of Soul Formation calamity.

Meaning, it was incredibly beneficial for their future ascension to Soul Formation.

And there was so much of it.

To put it bluntly, if news of this place were to leak, it would undoubtedly provoke a fierce battle among the Soul Formation powers of the Eastern End.

Now, the only issue they had to deal with was the Spirit Devouring Beetle King before them.

Squeak—

Suddenly, as if sensing its fate, the Spirit Devouring Beetle King, much larger than its ordinary counterparts, suddenly prostrated itself before Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, showing a submissive posture.

This surprised both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Based on their knowledge, the Spirit Devouring Beetle, like many creatures of heaven and earth, had its unique abilities and gifts.

However, those with intelligence and understanding of submission were rare.

At least in their understanding, the Spirit Devouring Beetle King before them didn’t possess such traits.

Yet, here it was, displaying some aspects of a sentient being. Although not fully developed, it was evident that the beetle king was showing signs of emerging intelligence.

Squeak—

At this moment, a thought simultaneously entered the minds of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, making them look at each other with increased surprise.

Finally, Jiang Chengxuan spoke, “You wish to acknowledge us as your masters?”

Squeak squeak…

The Spirit Devouring Beetle King nodded repeatedly.

The next moment, two wisps of light suddenly emerged from the Spirit Devouring Beetle King. That was its primordial spirit.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan only needed to accept this wisp of primordial spirit and implant their own restrictions on it to truly become the masters of the Spirit Devouring Beetle King.

The couple did not refuse this offer.

Since the Spirit Devouring Beetle King was willing to submit, they naturally did not mind sparing its life.

Soon, they accepted its primordial spirit and placed their respective restrictions on it.

At this moment, both could clearly feel that the life and death of the Spirit Devouring Beetle King were now at their whim.

Squeak squeak…

Just then, the Spirit Devouring Beetle King called out to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and then turned to crawl towards the area behind the pool containing the Spirit Spring Marrow.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan immediately followed.

After a short walk, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan suddenly felt an extremely refreshing sensation permeating their souls, invigorating their spirits.

Before them grew three silver-white flowers.

The Spirit Devouring Beetle King stood beside these silver-white flowers, constantly calling out to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

“And that is?”

Their pupils constricted.

The next moment, a look of joy involuntarily appeared on their faces.

“It’s the Void Serene Begonia!”

The so-called Void Serene Begonia was a spiritual item capable of strengthening the primordial spirit. It also helped to open one’s intellect and increase comprehension.

The reason why the Spirit Devouring Beetle King had a different intellect compared to other beetle kings might be related to this Void Serene Begonia. However, this kind of spiritual item can only be consumed once in a lifetime. Consuming it a second time would render it completely ineffective.

Despite this, it was still an invaluable treasure.

Without much hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan collected the three Void Serene Begonias.

Then, they proceeded to gather the Spirit Spring Marrow as well..
