Chapter 218: Probe and Counterattack: The Myriad Phenomena Realm Attacks

“If you pair it with the thirty-six ‘Armor-Breaking Cone’ arrows and activate it with all your might, its power will be even greater!” Qin Wenyuan explained, a hint of admiration in his eyes.

This was indeed an excellent weapon suitable for Qin Yu’s current stage, especially when combined with the Wind and Thunder Technique he cultivated.

With a mere thought, Qin Yu took out the Thunder Shock Bow. He felt its natural grain and revealed a look of satisfaction. With this bow, his repertoire of long-range attacks would be greatly supplemented.

“As for the other ores and spiritual materials, they have all been collected according to your list. They are enough for the Insect Swarm to hatch a new batch of special units,” Qin Wenyuan continued. “In addition, Wan Yongchang asked me to pass on a message. The boss behind the Treasure Pavilion is quite interested in the Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Gu.

“They hope to meet with you to discuss cooperation. The terms can be matched with the Demon Suppression Bureau’s, or even better.”

The Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Gu?

Qin Yu nodded slightly. Factions like the Treasure Pavilion had little need for Rapid Insects, but the Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Gu was a different story. Being able to communicate freely within a radius of ten thousand miles would naturally boost their efficiency significantly.

Of course, this wasn’t just true for the Treasure Pavilion. It applied to other major families and factions as well. This item was incredibly versatile.

“There’s no rush. We’ll discuss it after the current storm has passed. Thank you for your hard work, Elder Wenyuan,” Qin Yu replied.

The Treasure Pavilion was also a top-tier faction that spanned the entire Great Wei. The treasures and cultivation technique lineages they possessed were not necessarily any fewer than those in the Demon Suppression Bureau’s treasure vault. However, having money wasn’t enough; one also needed a certain level of status to access their true treasures.

After seeing Qin Wenyuan off, Qin Yu sank his consciousness into the Beast Taming Ring space. He carefully inventoried the supplies inside, silently planning the next direction to enhance the Insect Swarm. With the Beast Taming Ring, he could carry a batch of elite Insect Swarm units with him at all times.

A space of a hundred zhang wasn’t massive, but it wasn’t small either. He could easily stuff a few Thunder Beasts inside, and putting in a batch of Gold-devouring Insects would be a breeze. If he ever encountered a crisis, he would be better equipped to handle it.

Over the next two days, an eerie calm settled inside and outside Yunlong County City.

The Qin Residence remained heavily guarded, with the Insect Swarm patrolling endlessly, but no large-scale attacks occurred. Those Evil Demon Primordial Mansion Realm cultivators who had fled seemed to have vanished into thin air. However, everyone knew this was merely the calm before the storm.

Qin Yu did not relax. He stayed within the Leviathan Core day and night. While cultivating with the help of the Insect Nest, he used the widely scattered Insect Race units to monitor every subtle change within a thousand miles.

The Flood Dragon King, Thunder Beasts, Four-winged Black Thorn Eagles, Heaven-Burning Fire Crows, and various other categories of Insect Race units relied on their innate talents to sense the obscure operations of the Laws between heaven and earth, comprehending the Heaven and Earth Realm.

With the assistance of the entire Insect Swarm, Qin Yu’s speed in comprehending the Wind and Thunder Power, as well as the various Law Realms like metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and even poison, was steadily increasing.

Late on the second night, Qin Yu sat cross-legged on the flesh throne, faint lightning flickering around him. The last of his Qi Veins connecting to the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was on the verge of breaking through. Once it was fully connected, opening all nine veins, he would truly reach the Peak of the Sea of Qi Realm. His Primordial Power would flow flawlessly, laying the most solid foundation for him to break through to the Primordial Mansion Realm.

Just as he focused his mind, preparing for the final breakthrough—

“Hmm?”

Qin Yu abruptly looked up toward the east.

There, a figure radiating an overwhelming blood-red aura was hurtling toward Yunlong County City at extreme speed, making no attempt to conceal its presence. Wherever the figure passed, the clouds were dyed a dark crimson, as if the very sky was bleeding. Invisible killing intent condensed into a tangible, scarlet astral wind that howled and swept across the land.

Merely by flying, it triggered changes in the celestial phenomena!

“The Myriad Phenomena Realm?”

A savage grin appeared on Qin Yu’s face. He had guessed that the Blood Demon Church would send an expert to deal with him, but he hadn’t expected them to arrive so soon!

“Insect Swarm! Prepare for battle!”
