Fire Eating Bug, ranked 7th on the rare spirit bugs ranking. They devoured metals and liked devouring all sorts of flames. They grew in flames.
It could be said that they could devour anything and there was rarely anything that could counter them. Yet, Ming Wujian had so many Fire Eating Bugs. How did he keep them alive? Even though they were the lowest grade, with this many there even a sect wouldn't be able to afford keeping them. This was because they needed to not only devour flames but also large amounts of ores, or else they wouldn't reproduce.
The higher their level, the harder it was to keep them. But Ming Wujian's bugs were the lowest level so they used a lot of resources but they wouldn't be high level.
Even the other sect leader and elders' faces changed when they saw this many Fire Eating Bugs.
They recognized them and knew their terrifying power when they matured.
"They're actually Fire Eating Bugs?" Even Lu Wuhu was shocked.
Even Yan Guan and other 9-star sect elders were shocked, they thought of the Infinity Sect. The Infinity Sect had such terrifying bugs, if they used the sect's power to raise them, what other sect could stand up to them?
If all the Fire Eating Bugs were released, they could definitely annihilate a sect immediately. But they knew that it was impossible to fully mature all of them. Even getting 1/100000 mature was extremely hard, but just the name 'Fire Eating Bug' was enough to strike fear.
More than 10000 years ago, there was a great evil on Luo Yue continent. He was the Fire Eating Bug demon. This person kept countless mature Fire Eating Bugs. No one could stop him. He annihilated a 9-star sect all by himself just because he liked that location and wanted to use it as his own sect. The 9-star sect rejected him, and in his fury, he annihilated the entire sect.
That Fire Eating Bug demon ravaged for a thousand years before encountering Chu Jiuyu and being killed. Since then, his Fire Eating Bugs disappeared too.
Now, 10000 years later, the Fire Eating Bugs appeared again and they belonged to Infinity Sect.
Yang Feicheng's face was also bleak. He didn't know that his sect member had someone that kept Fire Eating Bugs. If he knew this, he wouldn't let Ming Wujian fight. He would make these Fire Eating Bugs Infinity Sect's top secret.
Yet, this insolent Ming Wujian not only fought but also used Fire Eating Bugs immediately. Even if he killed Ye Mo, other sects wouldn't allow Infinity Sect to keep the Fire Eating Bugs for themselves.
It was hard to keep them, but as long as you had the method and resources, another Fire Eating Bug demon would appear.
Yet, Chu Jiuyu was someone who didn't appear for 10000 years. If there wasn't someone like Chu Jiuyu around, the Fire Eating Bug demon would be able to do whatever he wanted in the cultivation realm.
Yang Feicheng clearly could see that Ming Wujian wasn't used to controlling these bugs. It was very hard for him. Clearly, he either just got these bugs or someone had just taught him.
...
Ye Mo realized it was no wonder these bugs weren't afraid of his heaven flame. Luckily his heaven flame was red level and could burn some - otherwise, if the flame was still yellow, it might instead feed them.
Ye Mo felt his octagonal cauldron get slower and slower. It was already a bit hard for him to use heaven flame and octagonal cauldron at the same time.
Ye Mo couldn't let this continue. He really wanted to use 11 Lightning Swords. People already knew he killed Tian Aofeng. It was no big deal to use it now.
But just when he wanted to use it, he saw Ming Wujian's face get pale. His each hand sign and spell was barely able to be used.
Ming Wujian didn't keep these bugs, Ye Mo immediately thought. Otherwise, it wouldn't be this hard for him to control.
Thinking about how cunning Ming Wujian was, Ye Mo wans't sure if he was putting up this act so he sent out an extreme grade spirit artifact flying sword at Ming Wujian.
Even with that, his sea of consciousness rumbled.
Ming Wujian was shocked to see that Ye Mo could still use flying sword. But then, he spat another mouthful of essence blood and more Fire Eating Bugs came out of the black gourd.
But soon, Ye Mo saw that the flying sword he sent was rapidly devoured. He exclaimed, these bugs were too powerful.
But now, Ye Mo no longer intended to use 11 Lightning Swords. Ming Wujian was unable to control the Fire Eating Bugs well, he only needed to summon Shadowless to ambush Ming Wujian.
Ye Mo silently let Shadowless out. He wanted to let Shadowless ambush Ming Wujian, but what he didn't expect was as soon as Shadowless came out, he shrieked in excitement.
What was this? Ye Mo was dazed, if he was going to enter the scene in that high fashioned way, how was he going to ambush? But Ye Mo saw Shadowless didn't listen to him and instead dashed into Ming Wujian's black gourd in a golden beam.
Ye Mo was shocked - what was this? But soon, he felt something was wrong. Those Fire Eating Bugs attacking the octagonal cauldron began to retreat and become chaotic. Some even flew away. Luckily, there was a restriction and they couldn't escape anywhere.
The Fire Eating Bugs blocked by the restriction flew around like flies but most rushed to that black gourd.
Ming Wujian looked at the chaotic fire eating bugs and shivered murmuring, "Not a spirit bug, not an immortal. Not number one Shadowless Worm.... There really is Shadowless Worm..."
Ye Mo wasn't struggling like before. He ate a Spirit Recovery Pill and was about to release Zi Xu. Shadowless didn't go ambush Ming Wujian but instead went into the gourd. That at least helped him.
But soon, he stopped using Zi Xu, not because Ming Wujian was pale faced and shaking, but because the black gourd was beginning to contort as though it was going to explode.
With a rumble, a hot wave swept out. Ye Mo let the octagonal cauldron shield him and quickly went to contact Shadowless. Shadowless was his important helper, he must not be blown dead.
Luckily, he soon felt Shadowless. When Shadowless came out of the explosion, it wobbled around as though it was drunk. The golden body turned grey again. Without much thought, Ye Mo sent Shadowless into a spirit beast ring. He didn't want to show the Golden Page World here.
Even the restrictions were shaking with that explosion. He didn't understand why Shadowless didn't die.
But large amounts of Fire Eating Bugs fell down and died. Some that were still alive rushed at Ye Mo and Ming Wujian like crazy. Ye Mo had the octagonal cauldron but Ming Wujian didn't and was soon devoured into nothingness.
After that, the Fire Eating Bugs flew around and didn't find the black gourd. Then, they all fell to the ground and turned black.
Ye Mo was disgusted and released his heaven flame to burn the black things completely as well as the dead bodies.
After the burning smell, the space seemed to have stabled and an orange flame appeared before Ye Mo.
Li Ming Fire, ranked 9th amongst the flames in the cultivation realm. It was a heaven flame. There was a heaven flame inside Ming Wujian's gourd. But Ye Mo knew that there was no way it was going to be his.
Yang Feicheng's face lit up seeing this, but before he could take it, Ye Mo said to Lu Wuhu, "Brother Lu, you can have this Li Ming Fire."
"Haha, okay, I'll take it." Then, he reached out a cultivation essence giant hand and grabbed the flame.
Ye Mo breathed easy. He knew that with his ability, it would take at least 7 minutes to take the flame. By this time, Yang Feicheng would've already taken it. Now that Lu Wuhu took it, Yang Feicheng wouldn't even dare to ask for it.
Yang Feicheng saw this and his face changed. He saluted with his fists, "Lu qian bei, this Li Ming Fire is my Infinity Sect sect member Ming Wujian's, please give it back."
