  Yan Jun’s expression changed when he heard that and said, “This … These two brothers ate and lived together with us. When did they get hit by an ambush?”

  Along the way, the vast majority of the time was spent in the wilderness. Everyone was together too. To be able to ambush these two people without a sound, how formidable did their strength have to be?

  Liu Yusheng frowned and said, “These two brothers were sent out for a period of time yesterday. Is it possible that … they were stabbed in the back by someone during that period of time?”

  This sort of delivery journey was not much different from fighting in a war. Sending two people out to scout for a path, and to see if there were any movements, this was something perfectly normal.

  But they did not expect that the excursion caused them to lose their lives.

  “These two brothers’ strengths were not weak. They were both Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artists. If they were ambushed by people, it’s not possible to have zero reaction, right?” Yan Jun’s expression was slightly grim as he said.

  “Only two kinds of possibility! One is that they were poisoned by people unknowingly. Second is that the strength of the person who ambushed them was way higher than theirs!”

  While talking, Liu Yusheng looked towards Ye Yuan, clearly seeking his opinion.

  Ye Yuan was the only alchemist in the trading caravans. He naturally had the greatest right to speak.

  But he saw Ye Yuan shake his head and said, “Neither!”

  Seeing everyone’s puzzlement, Ye Yuan squatted down and lightly pressed a few times on one of the dead bodies. Then his palm force abruptly spat out. A black color little thing suddenly tunneled out from the skin.

  Seeing this scene, everyone could not help being struck with terror.

  At this point, how could everyone still be unaware that what made these two people lose their lives was this black color tiny thing!

  After the small black bug crawled out from the skin, it turned into a stream of light with a whiz, wanting to escape.

  “Where are you running!” But Liu Yusheng was long prepared. A burst of force suddenly fired out and just happened to score a hit on the small bug.

  Liu Yusheng extended a hand and clutched, grabbing the small bug in his hand.

  Looking closely, this small bug was merely the size of a soybean. It did not appear to have any extraordinary aspect, but it actually claimed two lives.

  “What the hell kind of bug is this? To actually be so formidable?” Liu Yusheng said with a grave face.

  “This bug is called Heart Devouring Bug, specially raised with martial artists’ blood and essence. It can bore into the body through the martial artist’s skin and arrive straight at the heart through the meridians, infesting within the martial artist’s heart and devouring the heart’s blood essence. And this process, the martial artist would only have some pain like being bitten by a mosquito; extremely hard to discover. If one were careless, they would succumb to it,” Ye Yuan said.

  Everyone’s expressions changed when they heard that. This small bug was totally impossible to guard against!

  Even if the martial artist heightened their vigilance, it was also not possible to focus attention from morning till night either.

  As long as one slightly relaxed a little, wouldn’t they die without rhyme or reason?

  “This tiny bug is actually so formidable?”

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, “It’s even more incredible than you imagine! Leader Liu, better throw it away. Your blow just now shouldn’t be sufficient to cause death! It’s currently in a state of suspended animation. When you loosen up, it might just come and give you a bite.”

  Liu Yusheng’s countenance suddenly changed, his entire person nearly jumped up, and he instinctively threw away the Heart Devouring Bug in his hand.

  Right then, a cold light flashed. Ye Yuan drew his sword directly to split the Heart Devouring Bug into two-halves.

  With this, it was deader than dead.

  “Although I didn’t use full strength just now, I also used 30%-40% power. This little bug can actually still survive?” Liu Yusheng said with lingering fear in his heart.

  Ye Yuan said, “I already said, it’s even more impressive than you imagine! The most terrifying thing about Heart Devouring Bugs is not that it kills people imperceptibly, but … Heart Devouring Bug Swarm!”

  Everyone sucked in a mouthful of cold air. Hearing the meaning in Ye Yuan’s words, the matter was not as simple as imagined!

  “This Heart Devouring Bug can not only devour blood essence, but it also has extremely high immunity towards essence energy attacks as well. Therefore, that move of Leader Liu’s just now is completely unable to cause death. Can’t feel anything with just one or two, but if the numbers go up, that would really be called truly impossible to guard against,” Ye Yuan said.

  As if confirming Ye Yuan’s words, everyone suddenly heard a series of buzzing sounds.

  Immediately after, tiny black bugs that blotted out the skies and covered the earth swarmed over towards the trade caravans from all directions.

  Chapter 861 - Burning of the Linked Camps

  “This … This … This is a Heart Devouring Bug Swarm?”

  Yan Jun’s gaze revealed a look of despair. The Heart Devouring Bugs already surrounded them up. Even immortals could not possibly fly out either.

  Liu Yusheng was used to seeing grand spectacles too. But at this time, his scalp could not help tingling.

  Such numbers of Heart Devouring Bug Swarm, even if he had three heads and six arms 1 , he had no way of warding them off either!

  Ye Yuan currently had his gaze fixed on the Heart Devouring Bug Swarm, but suddenly felt someone hug his leg. Lowering his head to take a look, it was little girl Yan Ling.

  Ye Yuan smiled slightly and said, “Ling-er, are you scared?”

  Ling-er shook her head cutely and said, “With Big Brother Ye Yuan around, Ling-er isn’t scared!”

  “Good girl!” Ye Yuan gently rubbed Ling-er’s small head and said dotingly.

  “I don’t believe that a swarm of tiny bugs can eat us! 2 Brothers, get into formation and exterminate this group of damn bugs for me!” Liu Yusheng shouted angrily.

  Sea Green Mercenary Group martial artists were all veterans of a hundred battles.

  Experiencing the initial-most panic, they calmed down very quickly.

  Dealing with such a large swarm of bugs, it was naturally the effects of array formations that was the best. Otherwise, being besieged separately by these bugs and getting routed one by one, that would be terrible.

  Ye Yuan did not have the intention of stopping. If Liu Yusheng could really deal with these Heart Devouring Bugs, he would naturally be disinclined to make a move again.

  The Green Sea Mercenary Group was clearly very familiar with array formations. Only using several breaths of time, the array formation was already formed.

  Ye Yuan’s eyes lit up slightly and started to look at this Green Sea Mercenary Group in a completely different light.

  This set of array formation was called Spirit Profound Unity Formation. After forming the formation, a kind of fantastical resonance would form between the martial artists, and let each of their strengths increased immensely from there. Furthermore, the group of martial artists could join hands to lay down an enchantment, letting the power of the array formation increased greatly.

  Ye Yuan observed for a while. This set of array formation being set up, even if Phaseless Realm martial artists wanted to break it open, they had to expend quite a bit of effort too.

  No wonder the Green Sea Mercenary Group was called the strongest in Luo Ding City. Looks like it was not without reason.

  Indeed, once the ench
antment activated, it immediately isolated those Heart Devouring Bugs outside.

  Quite a number of Heart Devouring Bugs all crashed into the enchantment like moths into the fire. But the moment they touched the enchantment, a large swarm was killed by a blinding light.

  Seeing this scene, Yan Jun’s heart finally fell back into place. Heaving a long sigh in relief, he praised, “Elder Brother Liu is indeed impressive! Hiring the Green Sea Mercenary Group here on this trip is really too worth it!”

  Liu Yusheng was proud of himself too as he said, “Hehe, that goes without saying. For our Green Sea Mercenary Group to be able to make it to our current status, how can we not have any ultimate trump card ability? With us, this group of brothers here, it’s also useless no matter how many of these damn bugs there are!”

  The might of the Spirit Profound Unity Formation was extraordinary. It killed large swathes of Heart Devouring Bugs very quickly.

  But these bugs were too many. It completely could not be killed finish.

  These bugs were clearly not intrepid and fearless towards death either. Seeing that they were unable to breach the enchantment, they stopped the attacks very quickly and started circling around outside the enchantment.

  Suddenly, those bugs seemed to have suffered some kind of stimulation and actually started biting each other.

  When the martial artists saw this scene, they could not help being astounded.

  “Haha, these bugs are indeed savage in nature. Not able to breach our enchantment, they actually started killing each other!” someone said with a jeer.

  When these bugs started to chomp down, they did not show the slightest hint of mercy towards their companions. Very soon, a large swarm of Heart Devouring Bugs died under the gnawing of their own companions.

  But when Ye Yuan saw this spectacle, his gaze turned grim.

  “Everybody, don’t lower your guard! These Heart Devouring Bugs chomping down on each other is not savageness being their second nature, but because there is someone controlling them to evolve! Heart Devouring Bugs are unable to take human form, but are able to evolve through devouring their companions! Along with the increase in rank, their resistance towards essence energy would also rise dramatically!” Ye Yuan said in a solemn voice.

  Ye Yuan was just like a jinx. The moment he finished explaining, after those Heart Devouring Bugs devoured many of their companions, their strength suddenly skyrocketed.

  With this, the number of Heart Devouring Bugs reduced a lot, but the quality increase by a large margin!

  Liu Yusheng’s expression changed, and he said, “Careful, they are going to attack! Kill them!”

  This time, the Heart Devouring Bugs that had a large improvement in strength bounced back with renewed effort after a failure.

  The Green Sea Mercenary Group spared no effort to control the enchantment, bombarding wantonly at the Heart Devouring Bugs. Yet, the bodies of those Heart Devouring Bugs actually just swayed a little and dropped directly on top of the enchantment.

  Hiss, hiss, hiss …

  The Heart Devouring Bugs actually started to devour the essence energy used to set up the enchantment!

  Seeing this scene, Liu Yusheng and Yan Jun’s expression changed greatly.

  Wasn’t these Heart Devouring Bugs a little too formidable?

  Hiss, hiss, hiss …

  More and more Heart Devouring Bugs plopped onto the enchantment. The enchantment became a black sky very quickly.

  Liu Yusheng had sweat streaming down his face from nervousness. He wanted to remove the array formation, but removing the array formation at this time was no different from seeking death.

  Boom!

  Right at this time, it was as if the entire world was lit up. A raging flame actually started burning on the enchantment.

  Buzz, buzz …

  At this time, virtually all of the Heart Devouring Bugs were gathered on the enchantment. This fire burned extremely suddenly, burning all of the Heart Devouring Bugs all at once.

  The Heart Devouring Bugs emitted low cries, making people shudder with fear when they heard it.

  This flame was very fierce, seemingly like a bone-festering maggot. No matter how those Heart Devouring Bugs struggled, they could not break free. Finally, they turned to ashes.

  Even though those Heart Devouring Bugs already evolved successfully, under this flame, they did not have the slightest strength to resist.

  Liu Yusheng and Yan Jun watched this scene in a daze, both somewhat out-of-sort.

  The glow of the fire shone on their faces, radiating light, shaking people to the core.

  “E-Elder Brother Liu, was this flame … done by your mercenary group?” Yan Jun asked slowly.

  Liu Yusheng was stunned, then immediately let out a roaring laugh as he said,“Hahaha! O-Of course! Just now, I deliberately showed weakness to the enemy. It was for the sake of drawing all of them over to round them up in one fell swoop! How is it, Owner Yan? Is this fire still passable?”

  Yan Jun nodded his head mechanically and sighed with praise, “Elder Brother Liu is indeed formidable! If we can return safely from this trip, your mercenary group’s reward will add another 30%!”

  Although Liu Yusheng did not know what was going on, this outcome was exactly when he wanted.

  This baffling fire actually directly increased their remuneration by 30%!

  Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan just smiled slightly and did not have the intention of stepping forward to claim the credit.

  Earlier, everyone’s attention was focused on the Heart Devouring Words. He took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention and quietly infused the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame into the array formation.

  How could a Tier 7 Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame be what these Heart Devouring Bugs could withstand?

  With this, it directly burned until nothing was left.

  This kind of means, only Ye Yuan could accomplish it without drawing attention as well. He was very familiar with this Spirit Profound Unity Formation. Even though it was his first time cooperating with these martial artists, it was seamless. Even Liu Yusheng did not detect it.

  “Don’t be happy too early. These Heart Devouring Bugs should be controlled by someone. Burning them down with this, the perpetrator is probably going to show up,” Ye Yuan warned.

  [0] The chapter title is Burning of the Linked Camps. This is a reference to a battle in the Three Kingdoms era, soldiers ran around to set fire everywhere, causing chaos.

  Ye Yuan’s voice had yet to fade when a man appeared in everyone’s line of sight.

  Yan Jun said with a bitter smile, “Master Ye, can we not say anymore? If you keep talking, you might provoke some kind of existence out.”

  Liu Yisheng grumbled too, “Master Ye, can we keep our mouths shut for a while? Whatever you say, everything will come true. At this rate, we can forget about reaching the place for the rest of our lives.”

  Ye Yuan was stupefied. Only then did he recover to his senses too and could not help saying embarrassedly, “H-Huhu, I’ll just stop talking.”

  Starting from when the enemy appeared, it seemed like all of the direction of the plot was planned by Ye Yuan. And he became a seer; whatever he said, everything came true.

  Yan Jun and Liu Yusheng had clearly become aware of it already and could not help complaining to Ye Yuan.

  They naturally did not know that if it were not for Ye Yuan, they would already not have the life to complain here.

  This man who suddenly appeared had a sinister and ruthless gaze. There was even a knife scar on his face. One look and it was obvious that he was not some good person.

  But this guy was merely Eighth Level Heaven Enlightenment Realm. This made Liu Yusheng and the rest feel much more at ease.

  Against a Eighth Level Heaven Enlightenment Realm, Liu Yusheng sized himself up that he would not lose to anyb
ody.

  Moreover, in his view, this man should be more formidable in controlling bugs. His combat strength should not be strong.

  “To dare burn all of my, Blood Saber Tan Si’s, Heart Devouring Bugs to death, are you all prepared for a reckoning?” the scar-faced man said in a cold voice.

  The moment these words came out, Liu Yusheng and Yan Jun’s expressions changed drastically.

  “You … You’re the Blood Saber Tan Si who massacred Luo Ding City’s entire Zhang Family ten years ago!” Liu Yusheng was incomparably astonished. His hand holding the sword tightened unnaturally.

  Clearly, this Blood Saber Tan Si’s fierce name made Liu Yusheng produce fear.

  Ye Yuan was very curious when he saw the situation too. Liu Yusheng appeared like he feared nothing and no one. He was actually so fearful of this scarred man in front of him.

  “Is this scarred man very impressive?” Ye Yuan asked a Green Sea Mercenary Group’s martial artist.

  That person’s expression was not too good as well. He said in a solemn voice, “Ten years ago, Blood Saber Tan Si was only Sixth Level Heaven Enlightenment, but massacred Luo Ding City’s entire Zhang Family of 200 over people! One has to know that the Zhang Family was a great family second to none in Luo Ding city. Just the Ninth Level Heaven Enlightenment Realms were as many as two people. There were even several people in the Eighth Level Heaven Enlightenment Realm! Tan Si killed all of them with his strength alone. Would you say that’s impressive or not?”

  That martial artist even thought that Ye Yuan would get a huge shock after hearing it. Who knew that Ye Yuan just nonchalantly gave an ‘oh,’ then there was no more follow up.

  This Tan Si should have comprehended a supreme true intent, that was why he would be so formidable.

  Now that ten years had passed, Tan Si already cultivated to Eighth Level Heaven Enlightenment Realm, his strength was bound to have scaled new heights.

  If Liu Yusheng matched up, it was indeed quite troublesome.

  Supreme true intents were not cabbages that anyone could comprehend. Although Liu Yusheng was strong, he was still a little away from comprehending a supreme true intent.
