“Insect eggs,” Su Jingxing replied. “I don’t know if they belong to the Ghost-Faced Insect, but I’ve already wiped out all of them.”

“Since they’re insect eggs, they should indeed be destroyed.” Gong Junlian nodded.

“Other than the insect eggs, is there anything else?” Wei Chengzhang stepped away and looked around.

“No.” Su Jingxing pondered and said, “This place doesn’t seem like a nest, nor does it have the ability to develop into a nest.”

Insect nest!

The nest of the Extraterrestrial Devil Insects.

This was the reason why Gong Junlian and Wei Chengzhang had come down to the cave.

Giant Shark Island was too close to land.

If there was a nest here, it would be a terrifying bomb that could explode at any time.

It had to be eliminated in advance!

Su Jingxing also came down to check mainly to eliminate this possible hidden danger.

However, after a round of inspection, he found nothing but a pile of Soul Devouring Insect eggs.

Now that the Soul Devouring Insect eggs had been destroyed, Su Jingxing subconsciously chose to hide the matter.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain how he knew that these eggs belonged to the Soul Devouring Insect.

The Soul Devouring Insect had never appeared before. What right did Su Jingxing have to name it “Soul Devouring”?

This was just a bunch of insect eggs. Their abilities hadn’t even been revealed yet. How could he tell that they were soul devouring?

Even if the two of them did not ask for details, what were the characteristics of the Soul Devouring Insects? What were their weaknesses?

Since he knew that it was a Soul Devouring Insect, he should know the general ability of this insect, right?

How troublesome!

If Su Jingxing himself didn’t know, how could he explain it?

He might as well leave them as unknown insect eggs.

Gong Junlian and Wei Chengzhang didn’t ask. They walked around and relaxed when they didn’t find anything else.

Great that it wasn’t a nest.

There were no other problems, not to mention that all the insect eggs had been destroyed.

The five of them did not stay for long.

Soon, they returned to the surface of the sea.

They bade farewell to each other and returned to their respective countries.

…

Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain in Qinghe City.

He unlocked 50 Mystic Soul Cards and obtained five Heaven Essence Pills.

The Essence Soul swallowed them one by one. Moments later, it successfully advanced to the fourth class of the Void Soul realm!

The effects of the Heaven Essence Pill were on the same level as the Sage Origin Fruit.

The origin of these Soul Devouring Insects was definitely extraordinary. Unfortunately, there were too few of them.

In the fourth class of the Void Soul realm, the capabilities of Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul had advanced further.

After sensing for a while, the Essence Soul returned to the Void World to keep guard while slowly experiencing its new realm.

Su Jingxing’s main body took out a Martial Arts Practice Card and prepared to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

Of course, before cultivating, he had to calculate the most suitable cultivation location using the Six Comets Record.

The Blood Doppelganger had returned.

To forge the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal, he also needed to deduce a suitable location.

However, it would take at least a month and a half to forge the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal.

With such a long period of time, Su Jingxing decided to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book first to increase his strength.

In the end, after a day and night of divination using the Six Comets Records, he finally got a rough location.

Green Cloud Mountain!

The Green Cloud Mountain Range beside Qinghe City!

Among the 18 prefectures of the Yu Nation, Green Cloud Mountain was actually the most suitable place to cultivate.

Are you serious?

Su Jingxing was a little suspicious.

Changyang Prefecture was not in the center of the Yu Nation. The Fulong Prefecture, where the capital was located, was.

In the Yu Nation, Green Cloud Mountain was not one of the top ten well-known mountains and rivers.

Why was it the best place to cultivate?

Su Jingxing refused to accept this and used the Six Comets Records to divine again.

In the end, the answer he got a day later was still the Green Cloud Mountain.

This time, the location was even clearer. It was on the north side of the Green Cloud Mountain!

It’s really the Green Cloud Mountain?

Su Jingxing pondered for a long time and decided to give it a try.

However, before setting off, he circulated the Six Comets Records and performed divination.

This time, he was divining the best location to forge the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal.

Su Jingxing wanted to see if the best location was also on Green Cloud Mountain.

And it turned out…

“Really?”

Su Jingxing, who had received the answer, narrowed his eyes.

There’s a problem, there’s definitely a problem!

There’s either something wrong with Green Cloud Mountain or the Six Comets Records.

I’ll know what went wrong after trying to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

With this in mind, Su Jingxing rushed to the north of the Green Cloud Mountain Range overnight. He chose a mountain and unlocked a Martial Arts Practice Card to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

As usual, the Martial Arts Practice Card turned into a ball of light and wrapped around Su Jingxing’s body.

In the Martial Arts Practice Space, Su Jingxing began cultivating the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

This Martial Arts Practice Card only contained one year practice time. It was only used as a starting attempt.

However, no matter how Su Jingxing worked, the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book remained motionless.

A year of practice time was exhausted, and the space shattered. Su Jingxing’s consciousness returned, but he still did not touch the threshold of the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

This ultimate technique could not be executed.

It was not because of Green Cloud Mountain, nor was it because of the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

There was nothing wrong with the Six Comets Records’ divination. There was indeed something special about the northern side of Green Cloud Mountain.

Su Jingxing couldn’t put his finger on it.

If he had to explain it, it was simply because it was easier to comprehend the world from the north of Green Cloud Mountain.

Su Jingxing carefully thought about the failure of using the Martial Arts Practice on Emperor Chu’s Jade Book twice and realized that the reason was because of the nation’s fate!

It was not that there was a problem with the fate of the Yu Nation, but that Su Jingxing had failed to grasp the “thread” that connected to the fate of the nation.

To cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book, the first requirement was to sense the “thread” that connected the to fate of the nation and “hold” it in one’s hand.

On the north side of Green Cloud Mountain, Su Jingxing sensed this “thread”, but he couldn’t touch it, let alone grab it and “hold” it in his hand.

Without the “thread”, it was naturally impossible to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

For a moment, Su Jingxing was a little mad.

Before that, he wanted a Martial Arts Practice Card but couldn’t extract one.

Now, he had dozens of Martial Arts Practice Cards and even obtained a magical ultimate skill like Emperor Chu’s Jade Book.

However, he was unable to cultivate it.

This feeling was simply torturous!

“F*ck.”

Su Jingxing naturally wouldn’t give up after one failure.

When he calmed down, he started cultivating the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book again.

This time, he did not unlock the Martial Arts Practice Card. He had to catch the “thread” first.

When he had the “thread” in his hand, it wouldn’t be too late to cultivate it through the Martial Arts Practice Card.

Therefore, the Blood Doppelganger returned to the crematorium in Changyang Prefecture City. Su Jingxing’s main body remained on Green Cloud Mountain and stayed on a mountain peak in the north. He began to repeatedly catch the “thread”.

One day, two days, three days.

Time flew by.

…

Dashun Prefecture.

In the vast mountains.

A man and a woman darted through the woods.

The man was fine, but his white hair was a little messy and there were a few holes in his clothes.

However, the woman’s face was pale, without a trace of blood. Her breathing was faintly discernible.

The strange thing was that wherever she passed, a strange fragrance floated in the air.

Some herbivores smelled it from afar and even walked over to sniff it carefully.

“No, I can’t continue.”

As they ran, the woman suddenly panted. “Brother Chang, I can’t go on anymore. Leave me alone. With my condition, no matter where we go, we won’t be able to shake them off.”

“Shut up!”

The man gritted his teeth and shouted, “I’ve already said that I’ll be wherever you are! What do you mean by leaving you alone? Am I, Lu Wuchang, a coward who’s afraid of death in your eyes?”

“You’re not a coward. You’re a playboy.” The woman smiled weakly. “No one will laugh at you if you leave me. Isn’t it normal for a playboy to switch his women?”

“I said shut up!”

Lu Wuchang shouted in a low voice, “Su Yao! You know it, you’re the first person I fell for! Only you kept ignoring me. I admit that I’m a playboy, but that’s to distract myself from thinking and yearning for you every day!

“I was afraid I won’t be able to hold back and do something rash to you. I was afraid you’ll get hurt, and even more afraid that I’ll regret it.”

“Su Yao, believe it or not, you are the only person I, Lu Wuchang, have ever liked in my life!”

The man was Lu Wuchang from Ci En Bank, a third-grade martial artist in his thirties with a terrifying intuition.

However, before this, only a small portion of his hair had turned white.

But today, his hair was completely white.

He no longer hid it, or rather had no time to hide it.

At this moment, Lu Wuchang was half carrying and half supporting the woman named Su Yao. His tired eyes were filled with determination.

“Trust me, Su Yao. As long as we reach Green Cloud Mountain, we will be saved!”
