Chapter 530: Chapter 355: Toad Moon Sword Scripture, Map of Moonlight!

Late Stage Golden Core magical combat, with an aura like a rainbow, the Spiritual Qi roiled for a thousand miles, creating a grand spectacle, naturally attracting the attention of cultivators, especially since this location was not very far from the Yunji Sect’s mountain gate.

But by the time a Golden Core Cultivator from the Yunji Sect came to investigate, the surging Spiritual Qi had already gradually calmed down, leaving no trace behind.

Causing the investigating cultivator to frown deeply.

Despite hurrying here rapidly, he hadn’t seen even a shadow, which made him assume this magical combat was incredibly swift, leaving him uncertain about which Great Cultivator had made the move.

Finding nothing, he had no choice but to return helplessly.

Since it wasn’t targeting the Yunji Sect, he couldn’t be bothered to care too much.

...

Meanwhile, Gu Yuan had already set up an Escape Light, leaving at high speed, traversing hundreds of miles in an instant, heading straight for the Thousand Waves Sect’s mountain gate.

And after escaping several thousand miles this way, from inside a stiff figure before him, a broken voice suddenly emerged:

"Master...Master, I can’t do this anymore. This fellow’s Divine Soul is remarkably formidable, and the memory is too vast. I need to descend to a quiet place to refine it properly!"

This voice, of course, belonged to the Heart-devouring Insect.

The Yinghuai Great Demon, after all, was a Tier Three Late Stage Great Demon, a formidable demon having cultivated for over a millennium. Such a being dying plainly was quite regrettable.

So, at the last moment of the magical combat, Gu Yuan used the Great Thunder Origin Cave Divine Dharma Eye to penetrate its Divine Soul, and then let the Heart-devouring Insect take the opportunity to possess it, hoping to devour its memory and gain control of its body.

But from the looks of it now, the Heart-devouring Insect’s strength was still somewhat lacking; even though the Yinghuai Great Demon’s Divine Soul was almost completely shattered, with only a faint trace of consciousness left, possessing it to refine the memory wasn’t that easy.

Gu Yuan gazed afar, quickly finding an inconspicuous, small mountain peak beneath the vast cloud layer. With a flash of Escape Light, he descended through the clouds.

This mountain was only a few hundred zhang tall, surrounded by low hills and sparse Spiritual Qi, with hardly any human presence.

"Boom!"

With a mere thought from Gu Yuan, the thick cliff walls on the mountaintop emitted a booming sound, as if an invisible massive hand had hollowed out the mountain belly, revealing a clean and spacious Cave Mansion.

Subsequently, Gu Yuan stepped in with large strides, sitting cross-legged inside the Cave Mansion.

The Heart-devouring Insect controlling the Yinghuai Great Demon’s body also trembled as it walked into the Cave Mansion, and once inside, it immediately sat cross-legged, closed its eyes tightly, and a green soul light emerged from its body, while a six-winged insect silhouette flickered continuously behind it.

Gu Yuan’s Divine Thought surged, checking briefly before putting his mind at ease.

His final strike with the Great Thunder Origin Cave Divine Dharma Eye had already pulverized the Yinghuai Great Demon’s Divine Soul, leaving no possibility of repair. Now, it was just the memories from a thousand years lingering and chaotically flowing, too vast for the Heart-devouring Insect to refine in a short time.

Only by sitting in silence and slowly devouring could it proceed.

Gu Yuan estimated that it should take several days.

This time naturally couldn’t be wasted, so Gu Yuan waved his wide sleeve, taking out a Qiankun Bag and a silver-glittering Sword Pill.

The Qiankun Bag was silver-gray, palm-sized, and bulging, looking quite ordinary.

Yet, when Gu Yuan’s Divine Thought touched it, in an instant, Demon Qi surrounded it like black fog, condensing in mid-air into a ferocious ghostly face, rushing fiercely towards his forehead.

This ghostly face exuded an evil aura, carrying a strong soul-devouring intent. If an ordinary Mid-stage or Early Golden Core cultivator were caught off guard by this attack, they would suffer greatly.

But Gu Yuan merely cast a faint glance, and the gray fog ghost face emitted a sharp scream before exploding and disappearing without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

Even the Yinghuai Great Demon himself was no match for Gu Yuan, so how could a mere restriction on a Qiankun Bag stop him?

"Boom!"

The golden Pill Fire, resembling the flame of a gilded sun, with faint, fragmented flashes of Thunder, within merely ten breaths, completely refined the Qiankun Bag, revealing its contents.

Gu Yuan’s Divine Thought probed inside, inspecting, but within a moment, his brow furrowed slightly, revealing a look of disappointment.

"Could it be that he anticipated trouble on this journey and indeed hid his possessions in the Cave Mansion?"

A Tier Three Late Stage Great Demon, who has roamed for a thousand years, should have substantial assets, yet this Qiankun Bag contained nothing but a few artifacts and some common pills for recovering Mana.

Typically, a cultivator with a Storage Bag or Qiankun Bag would carry all their treasured possessions with them, except for some massive items.

Once you kill a cultivator, you can obtain all their treasures, the heritage of a millennium or a century.

This is also why the path of Tribulation Cultivation never wanes.

However, some cultivators, foreseeing potential difficulties during a journey, or near the end of their lifespan and unwilling to let their treasures fall into the enemy’s hands, might hide all their possessions, leaving only what is necessary for magical combat, either to pass them on to those destined or to heirs.

Some would rather completely bury them to return to dust than let others obtain them.

Or they might sell everything to use in a final desperate struggle in magical combat.

As it seems now, this Yinghuai Great Demon wasn’t entirely confident about the trip, as his Qiankun Bag lacked cultivation resources.

However, as Gu Yuan glanced at the Heart-devouring Insect striving to devour the memory, a smile appeared on his lips.

With the Heart-devouring Insect in hand, unless dealing with a Major Sect Disciple, they would certainly be consumed completely, skin and bones!

Nevertheless, even though Yinghuai Great Demon’s Qiankun Bag lacked cultivation resources, it did contain quite a few artifacts.
