"That little girl Yanji wants the Tears of Mulberry Spirits? I remember now. "The silkworm was slightly stunned. He then nodded. "The Tears of Mulberry Spirits aren't that important. If you can survive, you can take them with your own strength."
"Thank you, senior." Lu Xiaotian was overjoyed. The silkworm had told him that Jiangchen Tiandu would let Lu Xiaotian eat the Sky Mulberry Fruit to help him resist the corrosive power of the Hadal Weak Water.
The silkworm was a native of the Tiansang Wastelands, so he knew better than Jiangchen Tiandu what the fruit could do. Lu Xiaotian knew that he wouldn't be able to fool the silkworm if he disguised himself as a warrior of the Mulberry Spirits. Now that Jiang Chen Tian had revealed the truth, Lu Xiaotian felt a weight lifted off his shoulders. Otherwise, he'd feel like someone was spying on him, no matter how determined he was. Otherwise, he'd have to stay under the nose of this old monster and try to steal one of the three sacred items of the Sang Ling's Tear, which was right under the nose of the Sang Ling Clan.
Now that he had gotten the approval of the Venerable Dark Blight Silkworm, Lu Xiaotian had gotten rid of one of his biggest hidden dangers.
"Don't celebrate too early. The Tears of Mulberry Spirits are one of the three sacred treasures of the Mulberry Spirits. It won't be easy to get them. As long as you don't endanger the Tiansang Wastelands, I can turn a blind eye to your little tricks, but I won't help you. With your current strength, the Mulberry Spirits won't spare you if you're exposed. You'll still die." The silkworm shook his head.
Lu Xiaotian cupped his hands and bowed. "It's good to have your approval, senior. As for the rest, I'll leave it to fate."
"Don't scare him, old monster. This kid is very strange. As long as you don't interfere, he'll definitely get the Tears of Mulberry Spirits." Jiangchen Tiandu laughed.
"He's just an arcane immortal junior. Although he's talented and has some tricks up his sleeve, he's not that strong yet. Daoist Tiandu seems to think highly of him," said the silkworm.
"He's alright. His strength is average, but his luck isn't bad. I can see that his luck isn't very exuberant. It seems to be in a state of extreme suppression at all times, but it's very resilient. The more suppressed it is, the more resilient it is. Jiangchen Tiandu nodded. He's only an arcane immortal, yet he dares to stir up trouble right under the noses of the heavenly court. Of course I think highly of him. "
"Alright, after saying so much, you just want this old man to control the power of the Nine Underworld Weak Water and not let it heavily injure you. However, winning the Gougu will still depend on yourselves, this old man will not condone you. Yinggou and your Jiangchen Clan both have the Corpse Ancestor's bloodline. The only difference is in your abilities. You know better than me just how fierce Yinggou is. Even if it is only a skull, it is still not something that an ordinary junior can contend with. "
The silkworm saw through Jiangchen Tiandu's intentions.
"Haha, good, straightforward. Young friend, this is all I can do for you. Yinggou is as old as I am. His skull was personally sent flying by Celestial Emperor Honghao and he accidentally flew into the Battlefield of Immortals and Demons. Over the years, he's accumulated a great deal of hostility. Be careful. I'll give you fifteen minutes to prepare. After that, I'll make my move. "Jiangchen looked at Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian nodded and sat down cross-legged, adjusting himself to peak condition. Yinggou and Jiangchen were both descendants of the Corpse Ancestor, but Jiangchen's physical body was stronger and Yinggou's nascent spirit combat arts more proficient. Even if it was only a skull, Lu Xiaotian couldn't afford to underestimate such an old monster.
His nascent spirit was already close to that of a golden immortal. In the silkworm's eyes, this was an extraordinary talent. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be qualified to try. Even so, Lu Xiaotian couldn't afford to be careless.
"Old Eccentric Infernal Wither, I had the honor of witnessing your peerless glory on the Battlefield of Immortals and Demons. Although I haven't seen your true self yet, the opportunity to spar with your clone makes this trip worth it." Jiangchen roared, causing the image of a withered corpse to appear behind him. It reached out with its claws and swiped at the churning waves of the Infernal Wither Sea.
Turbid waves slammed into empty air, and the sun and moon dimmed. Terrifying waves splashed into the air, causing the very fabric of space to tremble. Lu Xiaotian had a certain level of mastery over the power of space and could use a portion of it in this turbulent environment. However, in front of these two old monsters, Lu Xiaotian felt that even if he used the power of space, he still wouldn't be able to see through them. In fact, even teleportation wouldn't be able to escape their perception. Even if it was only for the briefest of moments.
Lu Xiaotian felt that the silkworm and Jiangchen were the true masters of this space. They could cause the space he was in to collapse with a single thought. If Lu Xiaotian really tried to teleport, the silkworm and Jiangchen Tiandu would've destroyed both him and the space around him before he'd even shown himself.
This was an enormous gap between their cultivation realms. The other party seemed to represent the supreme law of the world, while he was just a lowly ant in the world.
Lu Xiaotian was fortunate enough to see Jiangchen Tiandu and the silkworm's clone fight. Even if they weren't using their full strength, it was still a shocking sight. Who would've thought that a battle between existences stronger than ordinary golden immortals would turn out like this?
Moreover, neither the injured Jiangchen Tiandu nor the Nether Wither Silkworm's clone had exerted their full strength.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Xiaotian felt like Jiangchen Tiandu had already attacked countless times. The Dark Desiccation Sea, which he didn't know whether it actually occupied a boundless space or had been refined into a painting, also kicked up countless waves. The two clashed repeatedly.
Jiangchen Tiandu and the silkworm's clone only attacked once. When the giant claw descended, the Dark Desiccation Sea parted to reveal an enormous mountain range at the bottom of the sea.
"This is Ying Gougu's bone. Eat the Sky Mulberry Fruit and go get it for me," Jiangchen Tiandu growled.
Lu Xiaotian felt like he'd just woken up from a dream. His heart trembled. This enormous mountain range in front of him was one of Ying Gougu's bones?
Despite his surprise, Lu Xiaotian obeyed and ate the black Sky Mulberry Fruit. An inexplicable coolness spread through his body. It was as if his entire being had become transparent. He didn't need to circulate his immortal or dragon essence, nor did he need to comprehend the world. His body was now connected to it.
Lu Xiaotian could see faint corpse energy in the enormous mountain range at the bottom of the Dark Desiccation Sea. It stretched for at least tens of thousands of kilometers. Retrieving Ying Gougu wasn't as simple as just taking a piece of the enemy's skull.
Ying Gougu's skull had turned into a mountain range. Or rather, the pure corpse energy was inside the mountain range. It had to be forced out of the mountain range and turned into a bone before it could be retrieved.
