Chapter 210: Insect Swarm Mind Network! Crisis Descends

Immortal Tier Techniques were qualitatively different from ordinary cultivation techniques and didn’t have any obvious weaknesses. A comprehensive technique like the *Infinite Wonders Skill* might just give him some inspiration.

‘Now, let’s see how much of a counterattack those Evil Cults and Demon Sects can muster. The stage is already set. How many Merit Points will I be able to harvest this time?

‘Without Merit Points, how can I exchange for other Cultivation Techniques?’

Qin Yu’s expression was impassive. ‘Did I really launch this city-wide, high-profile hunt just to kill ‘Blood-crying Sword’ from the Blood Demon Sect and root out a few small fries in Yunlong County City?’

‘I’m choosing my own opponents!’

‘And I’m using their heads to obtain sufficient cultivation resources!’

***

「In a secluded courtyard outside Yunlong County City.」

“That brat Qin Yu must die!”

“In just a few short days, he has slaughtered a total of fifteen large strongholds belonging to seven major Sects, including the Blood Demon Sect, the Soul Refining Sect, the White Bone Temple, and the Red Dust Sect. Tens of thousands of disciples have died.”

“If this brat isn’t killed, and others start to follow his example, how will our Holy Sects continue to operate in this world?”

“He’s provoking us!”

“Not only must he die, but everyone in the Qin Family must die as well! We will show the world, in the most gruesome way possible, the consequences of daring to offend us!”

“Let’s make our move!”

In the secret chamber beneath the courtyard, seven figures—their auras either chillingly cold or brutally tyrannical—shouted furiously. Each one was filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could tear Qin Yu limb from limb on the spot.

They were, of course, the ‘aggrieved parties’ whose Sects had been wiped out by Qin Yu.

There had never been any talk of unity among these Sects that walked in darkness. It was common for them to fight and kill each other, and some even held deep-seated grudges.

But when it came to certain things, their stances were aligned.

For instance, the Demon Suppression Bureau.

Or a large-scale massacre like the one Qin Yu was carrying out against them.

They weren’t just angry.

They were also afraid.

Great Wei was vast, and the wilderness even more so. Even the people from the Demon Suppression Bureau had a hard time finding their hidden strongholds in the wild. Yet, Qin Yu’s War Beasts found them with ease.

They were exterminated, one by one!

And Qin Yu was still only at the Qi Sea Realm.

For the sake of Merit Points, he could slaughter the Evil Demon Sects of several counties, using their heads to trade for what he needed.

What if Qin Yu broke through to the Primordial Mansion Realm?

How many more terrifying creatures would that dreadful ‘Mother of Ten Thousand Worms’ spawn? How many more of their people would it hunt down and kill?

Therefore, Qin Yu had to die!

“When do we strike?”

“As soon as possible!”

A figure dressed in a blood-red robe, their face hidden in the shadow of a hood, spoke slowly. Their voice was as hoarse as a night owl’s. This was Blood Bat, an Altar Master of the Blood Demon Sect from one of the county cities surrounding Yunlong County.

His main lair had been destroyed by Qin Yu, and his losses were catastrophic.

“Agreed!”

A woman enveloped in a faint pink mist, her voice alluring yet laced with bone-chilling cold, agreed. She was a Guardian of the Red Dust Sect, Lady Hua Mei.

The Red Dust Sect specialized in Charm and Nourishment, and Qin Yu had conveniently wiped out one of their Sub-Branches.

The one who died during the day was a Late Stage Primordial Mansion Realm expert from the Red Dust Sect!

Even for a Major Sect like the Red Dust Sect, which spanned across Ling State, a Late Stage Primordial Mansion Realm expert was considered a high-level figure.

“According to our intelligence, although that beast is a Demon Suppression Bureau Inspector, that was just the Bureau’s attempt to win him over after the Bishui River incident. He holds no real power.”

“He has killed so many people simply to exchange for the treasures within the Bureau.”

“It seems a Myriad Phenomena Master from the Demon Suppression Bureau has made a move. Someone inside the Bureau must have taken a liking to him.”

Among the various Demon Sects, the Red Dust Sect’s intelligence network was the most well-informed.

They specialized in Charm and Nourishment. Countless people had fallen into their honey traps, unwittingly becoming puppets who revealed all their secrets.

“In the entire Qin Family, only that Qin Tianfeng is at the Primordial Mansion Realm. Besides him, we only need to watch out for that Mother of Ten Thousand Worms. The ones that destroyed our Sects were the War Beasts spawned by that Mother of Ten Thousand Worms.”

A Steward from the Soul Refining Sect named Soul Leader, his entire body wrapped in gray cloth strips with only a pair of dead, silent eyes showing, said grimly.

“Hmph, that Qin Yu’s strength is nothing to scoff at! Not only did he escape unscathed from the assassination attempt by the Thousand-Faced Old Demon and Liu Rumei, but he even killed them in return. His power is already comparable to a Late Stage Primordial Mansion Realm cultivator.”

“And a Late Stage Primordial Mansion Realm expert who specializes in Body Refining, at that.”

A sudden silence fell over the room.

The power Qin Yu had displayed was truly terrifying.

Even with seven Primordial Mansion Realm experts gathered here, they couldn’t say they were certain of victory.

First, the gates of the Cyan Profound Sect were breached.

Then, two Primordial Mansion Realm assassins were publicly executed by him.

And on top of that, there was his powerful Insect Beast Corps.

If they could have killed Qin Yu easily, why would they have needed to gather together in the first place?

“Hmph! A Myriad Phenomena Realm Guardian from my Blood Demon Sect will take action and kill him in one fell swoop! For a mere Qi Sea Realm cultivator to force the hand of a Myriad Phenomena Realm expert…”

“…he can die with honor.”
