[Chapter 141] Flame Essence Pearl
[Chapter 141] Flame Essence Pearl
Putting away the pottery jar, Nangong Chenyu said happily: "Let's go and find the Heavenly Silkworm Bee."
Ye Yisheng threw away the honeycomb in his hand and called Nangong Chenyu who was about to leave: "Wait a minute, Yu, should we pick the mature silkworm spirit leaves first before doing anything else?"
He suspected that Nangong Chenyu's mind was now full of the honey from the silkworm bees and he had forgotten the main purpose of their coming to the Yunqi Mountains.
Nangong Chenyu slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, we haven't picked the silkworm spirit leaves yet!"
Ye Yisheng: “…” I really forgot.
It takes five years for the silkworm spirit leaf to mature, and the maturity cycle is one month. If not picked after one month, the silkworm leaves will wither. The mature leaves of the silkworm are all white and emit a faint white light, making them easy to distinguish among a pile of weeds.
Generally, monks who pick the spiritual leaves of the silkworm only pick the ripe ones and ignore the unripe ones. This is also why there have always been Tiancan Lingye in the Yunqi Mountains.
Of course, the fact that the Heavenly Silkworm Spirit Leaves can always be found is also due to the Heavenly Silkworm Bees.
The two men picked the mature silkworm leaves, put them in a jade box, left the place, and began to look for silkworm bees in the forest.
In the past, cultivators who came and went to the Yunqi Mountains all came to pick the spiritual leaves of the Heavenly Silkworm. No cultivator set their sights on the honey of the Heavenly Silkworm Bees like Nangong Chenyu and the others did.
After walking for a quarter of an hour, the two saw the second silkworm hive.
Stopping fifty meters away from the Tiancan Bee, Nangong Chenyu said to Ye Yisheng: "Yisheng, wait for me here. I will go collect honey by myself."
"Okay, be careful."
Ye Yisheng restrained his own breath so as not to be discovered by the Tiancan bees and become their target.
In contrast to him, Nangong Chenyu did not conceal his presence at all and clearly told Tiancanfeng that someone was coming.
This nest of silkworm bees was not like the previous one that would actively attack people. They treated Nangong Chenyu as air, as if they didn’t see him at all.
Nangong Chenyu stood under the tree, looked up at the beehive hanging on the branch, and summoned the Flame of Thunder God. Then he stepped on the dust lightsaber and moved closer to the hive.
Originally there were only a dozen or twenty Celestial Silkworm Bees flying around outside the hive. Because of his approach, a group of Celestial Silkworm Bees suddenly flew out from the hive.
Just when Nangong Chenyu thought that these silkworm bees were going to attack him, they all flew away.
Without the Tiancan Bee, Nangong Chenyu easily collected honey.
When Nangong Chenyu landed on the ground, Ye Yisheng couldn't help but ask: "Ayu, what did you do to those silkworm bees?"
Nangong Chenyu was stunned by the question: "I didn't do anything!"
"Why did the silkworm bee fly away on its own that day?"
"Maybe it sensed danger."
What the two didn't know was that a celestial bee had arrived here before them.
The celestial silkworm bee witnessed Nangong Chenyu destroying the previous nest of celestial silkworm bees. When it saw him coming, it told the queen bee what happened. As soon as the queen bee flew out of the hive, she sensed the divine flame of thunder and immediately decided to leave with her people.
"There seems to be someone ahead. Should we continue moving forward or change direction?" Ye Yisheng asked.
Nangong Chenyu released his spiritual sense and saw a man and a woman in front of him. However, the other party’s goal is definitely different from theirs, so there is no need for them to avoid it deliberately.
"Let's keep going."
Not long after they walked, they saw another silkworm nest.
Just like the situation just now, as soon as the celestial silkworm bees saw Nangong Chenyu, they all crawled out of the hive, flapped their wings, and flew away.
Ye Yisheng looked at the direction where the silkworm bees left: "I don't know if it's my illusion, but I saw that before those silkworm bees left, they seemed to glance at you on purpose."
Nangong Chenyu was confused: "..." He naturally felt that the Tiancan Bee was looking at him.
Ye Yisheng asked: "Do we want to knock down the beehive?"
"No, I'll go up and get the honey."
After Nangong Chenyu collected the honey, the two continued to move forward.
This time, the two of them hadn't walked far before they saw a man and a woman who were walking in front of them running towards them in a hurry. Behind the man and woman were a swarm of celestial bees chasing after them.
When they saw the two of them, the man and woman showed obvious joy on their faces. The route of running forward was changed and it rushed straight towards them.
Don't make your purpose too obvious!
Ye Yisheng sighed.
"These two people actually want to divert the trouble to someone else!"
Nangong Chenyu continued: "Maybe it's because we look like good people."
Ye Yisheng disagreed: "What do you mean by looking like a good person? We are good people."
Ye Yishen, who said he was a good man, suddenly attacked a man and a woman when they were ten meters away from him and Nangong Chenyu.
A flash of white light passed by.
The two people who were running forward seemed to have tripped over something.
“Ahh~”
They ran too fast, and even though they were cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, they were unable to keep their bodies steady. The two men waved their hands and watched themselves rush forward uncontrollably.
As luck would have it, the two of them happened to be crawling at the feet of Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen.
Nangong Chenyu spoke quietly, "This is our first meeting. Why do you two Daoists want to give us such a great gift?"
The two of them raised their heads and looked at Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen with unconcealable resentment and anger in their eyes.
The male cultivator said, "You are the ones who plotted against us."
"Tsk, you ran too fast and fell, but you blamed it on us." As he said that, Nangong Chenyu pulled Ye Yisheng back a few steps: "Don't let them bump into you, or you'll get scammed."
“You, you…”
Before he could finish his words, a buzzing sound came into the male cultivator's ears. He looked back and saw a swarm of Celestial Silkworm Bees flying towards them.
While the male cultivator was distracted, the female cultivator had already climbed up. Ignoring the male cultivator, the female cultivator glanced at Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen who caused her to fall, then ran away alone.
When the male cultivator got up, he only saw the female cultivator's back disappearing into the woods.
"Just wait for me."
After leaving behind these harsh words that he often said, the male cultivator chased in the direction where the female cultivator disappeared.
The pursuing Tiancan Bee seemed not to have seen Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen, and directly passed them and chased after the man and woman.
The male cultivator took the time to look back and see this scene, and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Do you want to kill these two people?" Ye Yishen asked.
Judging from the personalities of the male and female cultivators, if they meet them next time and conditions permit, those two will definitely cause trouble for them.
"No, they won't survive."
As he spoke, Nangong Chenyu spread out his hands, and two Qiankun bags fell from the sky and landed in his hands. He violently erased the spiritual marks on the two Qiankun bags and threw one of the bags to Ye Yisheng.
"Here, let's see what's in their bags."
Ye Yisheng subconsciously caught the bag: "When did you make the move? How come I didn't know?"
"After you make your move."
Originally, Nangong Chenyu wanted to teach the two people who had brought trouble to others a lesson, but Ye Yishen took action first, so he changed his mind and picked their bags.
The moment the spiritual marks on the two Qiankun bags were erased by Nangong Chenyu, the two people who were running forward suddenly spat out blood and their bodies shook.
“Poof~”
If it was just the mark of spiritual consciousness on the Qiankun bag, the two of them would naturally not have such a big reaction. In addition to erasing the spiritual mark on the Qiankun bag, Nangong Chenyu also erased the spiritual mark on other things in the Qiankun bag.
When they realized what was happening, they subconsciously reached for their waists, but found nothing.
The spiritual consciousness of the two men was damaged, and the Heavenly Silkworm Bee quickly caught up with the male cultivator, and the female cultivator who was not far away was also caught up soon after. Unlike Nangong Chenyu, who possessed strange fire, the two could only dodge the fire attacks spit out by the Heavenly Silkworm Bee.
The male cultivator was accidentally hit by a purple flame mixed with the orange-red flames, and his robes suddenly caught fire. He quickly cast a water spell to put out the fire on his body.
Unfortunately, the water he conjured with magic could not extinguish the purple fire on his body.
In a short while, he became a man of fire.
The female cultivator not far from him was the same as him.
By the time Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen had sorted out the things in the two Qiankun bags, the man and woman had just passed away.
A purple flame flew through the woods at an extremely fast speed.
In a flash, Ye Yisheng seemed to see a flash of purple fire. He looked carefully, but there was no purple flame. Instead, all he saw was green.
Just when he thought he was seeing things, he suddenly thought of Nangong Chenyu's strange fire, the Thunder God Flame.
At this moment, what else does he not understand!
After burning the unwanted items, Nangong Chenyu called Ye Yisheng: "Let's go."
After walking forward for a while, the two saw a silkworm's nest on the ground. There are traces of fire on the beehive, so it must be the masterpiece of that man and woman.
Ye Yisheng picked up the honeycomb and felt its weight: "There is still honey in it."
Nangong Chenyu frowned. To be honest, he felt a little disgusted.
"Let's forget about this one, let's go find something else."
"Don't feel sorry for it." Ye Yisheng took out two empty porcelain bottles and planned to collect the honey in the honeycomb: "It can be used for other purposes even if you don't eat it. You never know when you will need it."
Nangong Chenyu: “…”
Ye Yisheng felt that there was a lot of honey in the honeycomb in his hand, but it was not even enough to fill a porcelain bottle, and no honey flowed out.
Confused, he shook his head subconsciously.
This shake allowed him to discover that there was something inside the hive.
Seeing Ye Yishen’s actions, Nangong Chenyu released his spiritual sense to probe into the beehive. The next moment, he saw a golden bead.
"There is a bead in the honeycomb."
Ye Yisheng poked a bigger hole in the hive, and a bead covered with honey fell out of the hole. He reached out to catch the bead, and the sweet scent of honey drifted into his nose with the wind, making him want to eat the bead.
Nangong Chenyu performed several cleansing spells on Ye Yisheng's hand before the bead revealed its original appearance.
It is a fiery red bead.
Nangong Chenyu blurted out the name of the bead: "Fire Essence Bead."
The Fire Essence Pearl is a higher-level treasure than the Fire Essence. It is difficult to find a Fire Essence Pearl among ten thousand Fire Essences.
Ye Yishen, holding the Fire Essence Pearl, felt the rich fire attribute spiritual energy.
"The man and woman just now should have come for this Fire Essence Pearl." He handed the Fire Essence Pearl to Nangong Chenyu: "This Fire Essence Pearl should be useful to Big Brother."
Although he and Nangong Chenyu could also absorb and refine the fire essence beads for their own use, they did not have fire spiritual roots. It would be better to give the Fire Essence Pearl to Nangong Suhao who possesses the fire spirit root, so that the effect of the Fire Essence Pearl can be maximized.
"Do you really want to give the Flame Essence Pearl to Big Brother?" Nangong Chenyu reminded: "Have you forgotten that Xiao Xin also has a fire spirit root?"
"The first person I thought of was my elder brother." Ye Yisheng waved his hand and said generously, "We are not short of spiritual stones now. If we come across a natural treasure that is suitable for Xiaoxin someday, we will buy it and give it to her."
"I don't know how the Fire Essence Beads got into the honeycomb?" Ye Yisheng muttered quietly, "It would be nice if there were a few more."
Nangong Chenyu stretched out his hand and pinched Ye Yisheng's cheek: "It's good enough to have one, you want a few more!"
Ye Yisheng thought: "You still have to have dreams, what if they come true?"
Nangong Chenyu shook his head and laughed: "I'm afraid your dream will never come true."
"Go, realize your dream."
After saying that, Ye Yisheng raised his foot and walked forward.
"…The charm of treasures is indeed great!"
Nangong Chenyu followed in a few steps.
The two walked through the dense woods and along the rugged mountain road. The spiritual sense explored the surroundings, and as soon as they saw the silkworm's beehive, they went to check it out immediately.
Having seen the example of the Fire Essence Pearl before, when he found the Heavenly Silkworm's Beehive later, Nangong Chenyu did not collect the honey immediately, but scanned it with his spiritual sense first. Only after making sure that there was nothing else in the silkworm's hive did he take out the clay jar to collect the honey.
After the enthusiasm of searching for the silkworm's beehive wore off, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen looked up and realized that it had become dark without them noticing.
They found a cave nearby and planned to stay there for the night.
The roars of monsters could be heard from time to time in the forest at night. At first, Nangong Chenyu didn't pay attention to the roars of the monsters.
A quarter of an hour later, he discovered that the roar of the monster was getting closer and closer to the cave where they were. It seemed that a monster was heading towards them with a clear goal.
He immediately released his spiritual sense to check.
The consciousness of the Nascent Soul Stage spread out silently, and he soon saw a level four blue-eyed fire lion. Sitting on the back of this blue-eyed fire lion was a middle-aged male cultivator who was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
There were more than a dozen people following the man and the beast.
The middle-aged male cultivator looked three-quarters similar to the male cultivator in a couple they had met before. Even if they are not father and son, they must be related.
After retracting his spiritual sense, Nangong Chenyu quickly scanned his body back and forth three times. After confirming that there was no mark of spiritual consciousness on his body, he did not breathe a sigh of relief, but instead frowned.
Noticing that Nangong Chenyu's expression was not right, Ye Yisheng asked, "What happened?"
"There are more than a dozen people heading our way."
"What is the highest level of cultivation among the people who came here?"
"Middle stage of Nascent Soul."
"They are coming towards us, but we haven't offended anyone since we arrived in Yunqi City." Thinking of the man and woman he met today, Ye Yisheng had a guess in his mind: "Ayu, can you take a look at us to see if there are any marks on us?"
"I've looked, no."
Just after he finished speaking, Nangong Chenyu suddenly thought of something and took out the Fire Essence Pearl from the space ring.
