152: Do you want this relic?

“Fellow Daoist Shen, with things as they are, there shouldn't be any problems, right?”

Shen Li tucked his hands into his sleeves and shook his head, saying,

“If you're asking about the safest place in this Yellow Sand Plains, the place most capable of suppressing this Grand True Person Seven Souls, then besides my place, there's probably nowhere else, right?”

Wang Teng nodded in agreement.

“That's true, after all, to deal with a master of the Divine Soul Dao, one still needs the techniques of the Taiyin Dao lineage!”

“Makes sense!”

Yang Dingtian looked at the corpse, which had already turned to charcoal, and asked in a deep voice,

“But then again, this Half-Step Dao Foundation wasn't really slain by us personally, was it?”

“It just feels a bit lacking.”

“It is a bit lacking; he almost got away in the end.” True Inheritor of Beast Control still felt a lingering fear.

Then Chen Jian said,

“But at least we got to experience the power of a Half-Step Dao Foundation; it truly is extraordinary. Even with that old ghost's Little Bewildering Spell and an Extreme Martial Warrior as preconditions, it was still so difficult to defeat him!”

“If it were a one-on-one fight, I'm afraid none of us would last three moves!”

Shen Li also shook his head and said,

“There were too many critical points in this battle; in reality, it was entirely reliant on external forces, and we contributed very little ourselves. But if you say it doesn't count, that's also not very likely!”

“Alright, then let it be so. We've stayed here for quite some time; I imagine the Senior Brothers in the market have already grown impatient. Fellow Daoist, I'll take my leave first.” Yang Dingtian cupped his hands. He usually held his head high.

He wouldn't easily show goodwill, but facing Shen Li, who was stronger than him in every aspect, he was sincerely convinced.

This was the acknowledgment of a strong individual.

The Disciple from Wanjian Villa also did the same, cupping his hands and saying,

“If one day you come to Tianyang Commandery, Fellow Daoist, you can find me at the Chen family, and we'll drink until we're drunk!”

“Naturally!”

The two figures walked away, gradually disappearing from sight!

Wang Teng and Shen Li's gazes, however, turned to True Inheritor of Beast Control, who hesitated and said,

“Fellow Daoist, have you forgotten about another Half-Step Dao Foundation?”

The three looked, only to see the Earth Silkworm in a sorry state, lying on the sand, already breathing more out than in.

The Half-Step Dao Foundation Earth Silkworm; two savage Extreme Martial Warriors dealing with such a thick-skinned Spirit Beast was simply a piece of cake!

Even though the Earth Silkworm could continuously absorb the Qi of the Spiritual Vein to recover, the pain was simply impossible to block.

This Earth Silkworm had clearly never seen the world before; now lying on the ground, it no longer moved.

Severely injured but not mortally wounded.

Because it seemed to know that no matter how fast it recovered, it would still inevitably suffer a beating in the end!

So it simply stopped recovering; bleeding was always better than being beaten, right?

As the group approached, the blood-soaked General Wushuang and Xia Liuli both cupped their hands.

“City Lord!”

“Young Master!”

“How do you feel?”

Xia Liuli said in a deep voice,

“This Earth Silkworm has rough skin and thick flesh, but its Physical Body strength is ordinary. It likes to use spells, but its spell usage is also ordinary, like... a piece of trash...”

“What a piece of trash...” True Inheritor of Beast Control's mouth twitched upon hearing the words 'piece of trash'.

He couldn't help but look at the Extreme Martial Warrior with even greater respect. One must know that on the ground, the Earth Silkworm had an absolute advantage. The power of the Spiritual Vein continuously restored its Physical Body; as long as it could endure, it could continuously restore its Physical Body armor.

He just hadn't expected that this Extreme Martial Warrior was also no ordinary person, beating the Earth Silkworm to despair.

Excessively fierce.

He looked at the Earth Silkworm and then spoke.

“Fellow Daoist... I want to make a deal with you.”

Shen Li's eyes flickered, and he waved his hand, saying indifferently,

“Fellow Daoist, if you want this Earth Silkworm, then please don't bother.”

True Inheritor of Beast Control opened his mouth, then tentatively said,

“I see that Fellow Daoist usually travels with a ninth-grade Spirit Beast, which is a bit losing Face. How about this, I'll bring an eighth-grade Spirit Beast from my home, named Jade Qilin, which has Qilin Bloodline and is extraordinarily mighty.”

“No trade!”

True Inheritor of Beast Control said, unwilling to give up,

“I see that Black Ridge City's Spiritual Qi is depleted. I imagine the remaining Spiritual Vein is constantly losing Spiritual Qi, coupled with this major battle, which has caused most of the Spiritual Vein to dissipate. I can request an eighth-grade Spiritual Vein.”

“No trade!”

Seeing this, True Inheritor of Beast Control could only look longingly at the Earth Silkworm.

This thing was simply a mobile turtle shell; if he mastered it, he feared it could become a mobile natural disaster.

What a pity, this thing couldn't belong to him.

Seeing this, he could only shake his head helplessly and say with a bitter smile,

“It seems we are fated to be without. Since that's the case, I won't disturb you any further here.”

“Fellow Daoist, until we meet again next time!”

True Inheritor of Beast Control also left Black Ridge City. With no one else around, Shen Li let out a long sigh.

He looked at the Earth Silkworm in front of him and used the Lingyin Technique, placing his hand on the bloody Earth Silkworm's forehead, then attempting to communicate with the Earth Silkworm's Soul.

However, it seemed the Earth Silkworm feared a certain Qi within him, and it kept resisting.

Seeing this, Shen Li gave up helplessly. He had already thought that perhaps it was the Taiyin Qi that this Spirit Beast feared.

Wang Teng, however, became interested and volunteered.

Using an unfamiliar Lingyin Technique, he communicated with the Spirit Beast's Soul.

Slowly, in the void.

He heard a sound like a rebellious teenager's irritable voice.

“You who can't even give birth!”

“Your mother is gone!”

“Thousand cuts to the Human Race Cultivator!”

“I, you, he...”

Wang Teng looked up in a daze. Seeing this, Shen Li quickly looked over.

He asked,

“How is it? What happened? You don't seem to be in very good condition?”

“Could it be that the communication failed? Or is it because of something else?”

“Wang Teng, what are you doing?”

Wang Teng's eyes were bloodshot, and he actually ignored Shen Li's words, cursing loudly.

“You're the one who can't even give birth! I'll shove a fireball in you later! I'll see if your ass stinks as much as your mouth!”

“Damn it, why are you cursing me? I didn't even cut you!”

“Your mother is gone? Your whole family's mothers are gone! You bastard! Don't stop me, I'm going to give this bastard a big fireball!”

Seeing this situation, Shen Li understood and burst into laughter.

After all that, Wang Teng was provoked by the Earth Silkworm?

Was the Earth Silkworm's aggressiveness really that strong?

Wang Teng's Heart-Nature had been trained quite well recently; he shouldn't be so easily provoked!

However, the sound of a Spirit Beast and a Cultivator cursing at each other grew louder and louder, until it finally shook the clouds.

The Earth Silkworm... started trash-talking with Wang Teng.

Hearing the countless body parts, eighteen generations of ancestors, and unmentionable vulgarities mixed in, Shen Li only sighed.

My Brother Wang is also not falling behind....

I just don't know where this Earth Silkworm learned to be so vicious!

As the sun set, Shen Li interrupted the two.

He spoke to the Earth Silkworm,

“Do you want... this slough?”
