Just one move and the black faced cultivator immediately knew he definitely was no match for Ye Mo. His first reaction was to take the skull banner and run.

　　But when he was about to run, he was shocked to find that Ye Mo’s domain had reached a state that was cast at will. It easily broke his domain and bound him. He would need at least a few seconds to break free from this domain and in this time he could die countless deaths.

　　“Don’t kill me, I’ll say it…” the truth realisation state level nine called out quickly.

　　The activated sword ray stopped above his head spitting out rays. If the cultivator said it one second later, he would have been sliced open by this sword beam.

　　There was a sliver of joy in his heart, not because this cultivator was willing to talk, but because he could stop Zi Xu according to will. Before, he had to forcefully stop his full powered attack which caused a backlash.

　　But now, he could stop Zi Xu at will. This gave Ye Mo a sense of enlightenment. He felt he was about to grasp something.

　　“Friend, I’m willing to say it, please put away your sword beam…” the ten meter long sword beam was scaring the truth realisation state cultivator. He was scared Ye Mo would shake his hand and cut him open.

　　Ye Mo sighed, his enlightenment was interrupted again. This made him annoyed and he yelled, “Hurry up then, I don’t have time to play with you!”

　　“Yes.” The truth realisation state cultivator quickly said, “My martial ancestor left behind a flying sword seal before his immortal ascension. If the flying sword seal breaks, it meant that the fortune of our sect has come and I’m to find sand soul beasts at the Ci Mountain…”

　　Suddenly, the truth realisation state cultivator stopped. Ye Mo wanted to ask him why and suddenly felt something was wrong with him. There was a look of extreme terror, more terror than when he was about to be killed before. Ye Mo covered him and Du Xiuying with the octagonal cauldron without hesitation.

　　“And break the netherworld…” as though knowing he was tricked, he desperately tried to say the last words but he completely exploded before he finished.

　　*Rumble*

　　This self destruction was enough to completely erase nearly 3 kilometers of land.

　　After the explosion, Ye Mo put away the octagonal cauldron and Du Xiuying saw that only her and Ye Mo stood in this perimeter.

　　“He was willing to say it, why self destruct?” Du Xiuying asked in shock.

　　“Things probably aren’t so simple,” Ye Mo seemed to be murmuring to himself.

　　Ye Mo guessed that either in his bloodline or cultivation method, an extremely cruel restriction was set. If one revoked it, they would self destruct.

　　This thing definitely had something that stopped the sand soul beasts from attacking him, but now that he self destructed, all clues were gone.

　　Ye Mo really wanted to go to this person’s sect and see what their martial ancestor’s relationship with Lu Zhengqun was.

　　“How long was I been down there?” Ye Mo asked.

　　“Eight days.” Du Xiuying quickly replied.

　　“Oh shit…” Ye Mo said and released Blue Moon taking her quickly away.

　　Qian Wei told him he could last for seven days, but this was the eighth day now.

　　Ice Sword Sect and Golden Sword Sect had quite similar names, but the difference in power between the two was immeasurable. Ice Sword Sect was just a 5-star sect, but Golden Sword Sect was an 8-star sect. With the Truth Spirit pills provided by Flowing Snake City, Golden Sword Sect would reach 9-stars in a matter of time.

　　…

　　Appearing above the Golden Sword Sect, Du Xiuying was completely dazed. She thought the scene at Fusion Joy Sect was horrendous enough, but now she completely changed her mind. Ice Sword Sect was just a 5-star sect, but they had nearly 1000 kilometers of land.

　　Now, the sect was completely unseen. There were only Spirit Devouring Bugs before their eyes for over 1000 kilometers. With this many, so what even if an immortal came?

　　Du Xiuying shivered but found that as they stopped, countless of them had swarmed over.

　　Even Ye Mo’s skin was crawling. With this many, how could Qian Wei stop them?

　　Even he would have to run if he didn’t have Heaven Flame Nine Suns. Many of these bugs had devoured cultivator essence blood and reached higher levels.

　　How many cultivators would be needed to annihilate all these Spirit Devouring Bugs? Ye Mo took a cold breath in. If Lu Zhengqun set this up, just what did he want to do? Even the sand soul beasts could annihilate the cultivation realm, why send all these Spirit Devouring Bugs?

　　If the South Peace State was like this, what about North Far State, West Extreme State, and East Black State? Wouldn’t they be annihilated already?

　　“Brother Ye… we, we…” Du Xiuying was shaking. She didn’t feel that scared seeing the sand soul beasts, but the Spirit Devouring Bugs made her completely frightened.

　　Then, Du Xiuying vomited. The terrifying smell and look of the Spirit Devouring Bugs made her unable to control her disgust.

　　Ye Mo knew that she really didn’t have the courage to keep staying here. The Spirit Devouring Bugs here were too many and too scary.

　　The reason Ye Mo didn’t attack immediately was because he was trying to find Qian Wei with his spirit sense.

　　Soon, Ye Mo had a joyful look. He saw at the heart of the sect there was a big golden bell. Countless Spirit Devouring Bugs were hustled there biting the bell, which was covered in craters.

　　But Ye Mo was shocked to find that the bell was a low grade immortal artifact. If these bugs could even eat a low grade immortal artifact, what else in the cultivation realm could they not eat?

　　Ye Mo knew that Qian Wei and them were probably inside the bell. If he came just half a day later, the bell would have disappeared.

　　Du Xiuying still wanted to talk, but Ye Mo waved his hand and a purple sun was released. It hung in the sky releasing waves of purple beams. They quickly fell and scattered from a radius of 10 meters to tens of kilometers.

　　Ye Mo’s face went pale. During his solitary cultivation, although the Heaven Flame Nine Suns changed to purple color and his spirit sense also drastically increased due to the spirit nourishing well, he still couldn’t stand the use of Heaven Flame Nine Suns.

　　If it was a radius of a few kilometers he could last longer, but this tens of kilometers radius made it a great struggle for him.

　　Ye Mo knew that these bugs were different than the sand soul beasts. He had to annihilate all the Spirit Devouring Bugs without a thousand kilometer radius. Otherwise, they would run away, and that would be a huge disaster.

　　Almost all the Spirit Devouring Bugs melted to smoke as soon as the sun shone upon them.

　　Du Xiuying had never seen this and seeing that the bugs couldn’t even last a few seconds, she immediately rejoiced. There was a sudden impulse in her heart. She couldn’t describe what it was.

　　When she moved her eyes to Ye Mo, she was very shocked. Ye Mo’s face was getting more and more pale. White mist was coming out of his body – clearly, he had been trying his best.

　　Du Xiuying wanted to talk but at this moment she realized she couldn’t disturb Ye Mo. However, Ye Mo suddenly left Blue Moon.
