Three days later.

Clang!

Bang!

Returning to the sea of flames in the Ruins, Cang Yue killed another Savage Spirit Beast.

Cang Yun nodded slightly. "You've made great progress in the past few days. Take a rest first. The area ahead is where the Rank 9 Berserker Spirit Beast roam. That is where the true training begins."

After a few days of travelling, the two of them finally arrived at their destination.

Rank 9 Desolate Spirit Beast was the most valuable experience within the dust. The Nihility God's Fragment within a Rank 9 Desolate Spirit Beast was extremely important to every Secret Realm practitioner.

Thus, the two of them rested for a while before they impatiently continued their journey.

In the region of the Rank Nine Savage Spirit Beast.

There were no obvious differences from before. The only difference was that as they continued onward, the temperature of the sea of flames became even hotter.

In such an environment, if a person did not have the fire attribute in their body, it would be extremely troublesome. They would need to constantly use Origin Energy to protect themselves.

Fortunately, both Cang Yun and Cang Yue did not have this problem.

As he entered the area, he saw that it was still an endless forest of Fiery Gilt Steel Wood.

Mysterious and boundless, admirable.

The two of them slowed down their pace and cautiously walked forward. A Rank 9 Savage Spirit Beast was already an extremely powerful existence. It posed quite a threat to the two of them. Therefore, the two of them did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

Clatter!

As he was walking, Cang Yun suddenly stopped, his expression turning serious.

"What's wrong?"

Cang Yue was shocked, and asked in a low voice.

"Killing intent!"

Cang Yun replied in a low voice. With his rich combat experience, he could sense an instinctive sense of danger closing in on him. But as far as the eye could see, there were no suspicious movements.

Cang Yun furrowed his brows as he circulated the pure Yang energy in his body. In an instant, two brilliant suns appeared in his eyes.

With the assistance of the pure Yang energy, his sensitivity to fire energy instantly increased by dozens of times.

In his field of vision, he finally saw a wild, hairy spirit beast squirming like a ball.

It turned out that this Savage Spirit Beast had been moving forward through the crevices in the sea of fire on the ground. No wonder his eyesight couldn't detect it at all.

However, with the assistance of the pure Yang energy, Cang Yun was able to clearly capture it.

This Savage Spirit Beast had a pair of pitch-black, round eyes and many tiny, fiery red tentacles growing from its entire body. It relied on these tentacles to easily crawl through the cracks.

As it walked, corrosive magma-like liquid constantly dripped from its body. Wherever it went, tiny cracks would open up a wide path.

Cang Yun's entire body tensed. He had already recognized this savage spirit beast. It was the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm that was recorded in the map manual.

There were very detailed records in the map manual. The Thousand-legged Fire Silkworm was an extremely difficult savage spirit beast to deal with. It was good at hiding in cracks and launching sneak attacks, making it hard to guard against.

Moreover, the hair on the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm's body was like a steel needle, and it contained a scorching corrosiveness. It could shoot out at high speed. As long as a warrior touched it, they would shed a layer of skin even if they didn't die.

This was the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm's most powerful move, especially when it shot out tens of thousands of arrows. It was almost impossible to dodge.

Normally, when a challenger encountered the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm, they would take a detour in order to avoid a fatal blow.

The only weakness of the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm was its speed. In order to deal with it, one first had to increase the distance between them and then launch a long-range attack.

Fighting a Savage Spirit Beast that was covered in poison and protected by countless steel needles was practically suicide.

"You step back first."

After Cang Yun said this, when Cang Yue was far away, he clasped his hands together and fiercely smacked them down.

The soul imprint instantly descended from the sky.

BOOM!

Earth and rocks flew everywhere. The sudden explosion caused the Thousand-legged Fire Silkworm to pause its movements for a moment.

At this time, Cang Yun had already flown ten zhang away. His hands formed a seal in the air as one Soul Seal after another appeared.

The Mental Energy in Cang Yun's body quickly gathered and surged towards the simple and unadorned Soul Seal that was formed by the azure clouds. The eight soul imprints flashed with a dazzling light in the sky.

During the previous month of training, not only had Cang Yun's cultivation increased, but his mental strength had also improved by leaps and bounds. After all, his talent in mental strength far surpassed his talent in martial arts.

Swish swish!

Cang Yun flipped his hand and pressed forward. Eight rays of light streaked across the sky. With lightning speed, they struck the Thousand-legged Fire Silkworm!

BOOM!

Followed by a thunderous boom, the soul imprint exploded. The Thousand-legged Fire Silkworm let out a shrill shriek, then its body and liquid sputtered out into the air.

The red blood splashed onto some of the fire-iron wood. With a muffled 'chi chi chi' sound, holes appeared where the poison blood had touched.

Cang Yun's eyes were like an eagle's as they stared at the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm the moment it was attacked. His hands formed a seal and smashed down.

Bang!

This palm strike contained an unparalleled source energy and violently surged downwards.

The position where the handprint landed, on the other hand, was precisely the location where the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm had suffered the most severe injuries.

Puff!

In an instant, blood splashed out again. This time, Cang Yun's attack caused the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm's entire body to be badly mutilated.

Cang Yun's series of actions were completed in one go. He did not hesitate at all due to his combat experience. Thus, the speed at which he moved did not allow the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm any time to react. A series of attacks directly struck the silkworm senseless.

However, in the next moment, the intense pain on its body made the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm explode with fury. It let out an earth-shattering screech as the skin and flesh of its body shrank, and the hair on its body shot out like arrows!

After all, this was his only attack method. If he used it all at once, then in the future, it would lose its fighting strength.

But this time, facing the threat of life and death, the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm didn't have any scruples. It directly shot out all of its steel feathers, concentrated like rain.

This was a truly indiscriminate attack!

It was very easy for a challenger to die to the Thousand Feet Fire Silkworm, because there was no room for dodging.

Cang Yun had already expected that the Thousand-Legged Fire Worm would fight back at all costs. He stomped on the ground and the ground under his feet exploded. Cang Yun's body rushed towards the Thousand-Legged Fire Worm's flank as if it was wrapped in a violent gust of wind.

Sou sou sou!

Countless steel needles grazed past Cang Yun's body, but he was able to avoid them all.

Cang Yun was located where the steel needles were the thinnest because this was where the Thousand-Legged Fire Worm's wounds were located.

Just now, Cang Yun's attack had blown apart a large chunk of the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm's flesh. The steel fur here had also been destroyed, and the remaining few pieces were also unable to be shot out because of the destruction of the flesh.

This gave the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm the only flaw in its attack.

This was something that Cang Yun had planned for a long time. Otherwise, Cang Yun would have had a hard time dealing with the death-blow from the Thousand-Legged Fire Silkworm.
