Speaking of this, Lu Daosheng's expression turned incredibly grim.
These Soul Devouring Insects were practically invincible, a major bug in the Cultivation world.
Everyone used Spiritual Qi to Cultivate, but Spiritual Qi attacks were useless against them—what a monstrous ability was that?
Moreover, Soul Devouring Insects could absorb power and grow infinitely.
For example, a Nascent Soul Stage Soul Devouring Insect fighting a group of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators: not only would the Cultivators' attacks not harm the Soul Devouring Insect, but they would also make it grow rapidly.
In the end, it would be the group of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators who died.
If a Soul Devouring Insect grew to a powerful Realm, then...
"Senior, let's leave quickly and inform the outside world so that powerful beings can come and deal with this."
After speaking, Lu Daosheng's face was filled with anxiety.
The Blood Worms were easy enough to deal with; just set up a Seal to trap them all, and as long as they were periodically eliminated, they wouldn't cause much trouble.
However, the Soul Devouring Insects were different. For them, a Seal was a delicious treat, and if even one escaped, it wouldn't be long before the entire Cultivation world fell into chaos.
After all, these creatures reproduced extremely quickly, laying eggs three times a day, with one Soul Devouring Insect capable of laying hundreds or even thousands of eggs at a time.
Soul Devouring Insects were hermaphroditic, so they didn't need two; just one could, in a short year, trigger a catastrophe that would sweep across the entire East Continent.
"Then is there no way to eliminate them?"
Seeing the Soul Devouring Insects unable to shake the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda in the slightest, Ye Lin asked Lu Daosheng.
After hearing Lu Daosheng's words, Ye Lin also felt it was tricky; the abilities of these insects were simply too monstrous.
No wonder the various races in the ancient era spared no expense to eliminate the Soul Devouring Insects.
"There are two methods, actually."
"First, Soul Devouring Insects only devour things containing Spiritual Qi, so a Body Cultivator can use their powerful Physical Body to kill the Soul Devouring Insects."
"Second, Soul Devouring Insects all have an upper limit. For example, a Nascent Soul Stage Soul Devouring Insect can only infinitely absorb attacks from Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators, but if the number of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators is too great, the Soul Devouring Insect will explode and die. And once a Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator makes a move, a Nascent Soul Stage Soul Devouring Insect will also explode and die."
"But Senior, these few Soul Devouring Insects are all Nascent Soul Stage, so let's run quickly."
Lu Daosheng finished explaining and said.
After observing for so long, he was certain that Ye Lin was only a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
If Ye Lin were a Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator, why would he bother? He would just need to wave his hand, and these Blood Worms, including the Soul Devouring Insects, would all turn to ash.
"You stay here. It's much better if there's a solution."
Ye Lin's lips curved upward after hearing this. A Body Cultivator? No offense, but he was also a Body Cultivator.
And he was a Nascent Soul Peak Stage Body Cultivator.
Ye Lin had considered letting the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda absorb the Soul Devouring Insects, but activating the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda used Spiritual Qi, which was completely countered.
Ye Lin walked out of the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda under Lu Daosheng's stunned gaze, heading outside alone.
The World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda was transparent, which was why one could see outside from within.
As soon as Ye Lin stepped out of the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda's protective range, the surrounding Blood Worms, with red eyes, rushed towards him, opening their mouths wide to bite at his Physical Body.
However, no matter how they bit, they couldn't harm Ye Lin in the slightest.
After all, Ye Lin possessed a Nascent Soul Peak Stage Physical Body; how could this group of weaklings possibly break through Ye Lin's Physical Body defense?
"Die for me."
Ye Lin clenched his fist and swung a punch at the nearest Soul Devouring Insect.
Boom.
With a loud bang, the Soul Devouring Insect in front of him had almost no chance to resist before being smashed into a bloody mist by Ye Lin's punch.
Looking at the Soul Devouring Insect he had easily crushed to death, a hint of doubt flashed in Ye Lin's eyes.
If these Soul Devouring Insects were so easy to kill, then why could they cause such a huge commotion in the Ancient Era?
After all, Body Cultivators were rampant in the Ancient Era; he didn't believe there weren't a few powerful Body Cultivator beings.
However, what he didn't know was that there indeed were powerful Body Cultivator beings in the Ancient Era, but the path of a Body Cultivator, while strong and progressing rapidly in the Early Stage, became slower and slower as one advanced.
Even in the resource-rich Ancient Era, there were only three powerful Body Cultivator beings who had fully entered the Tribulation Transcendence Stage with their Physical Body, and these three powerful beings were all from other races, not a single Human Race member.
After all, these three had reached this point relying on their racial talent.
But these three ultimately died at the hands of the Soul Devouring Insects.
"Kill."
After killing one Soul Devouring Insect, Ye Lin didn't hesitate at all and charged towards the other two.
All his attacks were pure Physical Body attacks, without using any Martial Skill.
Because Ye Lin was afraid that once he used a Martial Skill, it would be devoured by these Soul Devouring Insects.
Pop, pop.
With two loud bangs, the other two Soul Devouring Insects were smashed into bloody mist by Ye Lin's two punches.
Thus, all three Soul Devouring Insects met their demise.
After finishing everything, Ye Lin stretched his bones. It had been a long time since he had fought with his Physical Body, and fighting like this for the first time, for a moment, he still felt a slight unaccustomedness.
Looking at the Blood Worms still gnawing at his body, Ye Lin slapped tens of thousands of them to death.
Then he put away the World Suppressing Treasure Pagoda, and a golden light reappeared, isolating the densely packed Blood Worms outside. Then he pulled Lu Daosheng and walked forward.
This guy, you have to admit, knew quite a lot.
"I never expected Senior to be a Body Cultivator. This Junior was very presumptuous just now; please forgive me, Senior."
Lu Daosheng whispered to Ye Lin from the side.
He never expected Ye Lin to be a Body Cultivator, and a Nascent Soul Stage Body Cultivator at that, and furthermore, this Body Cultivator was not just in the Nascent Soul Early Stage.
It was very likely Nascent Soul Late Stage or Peak Stage.
This was extremely absurd. For ordinary people, let alone a Body Cultivator, just cultivating their cultivation to the Nascent Soul Stage was already a blessing.
And Ye Lin was not only in the Nascent Soul Stage in terms of cultivation, but also in his Physical Body, which shocked him greatly.
Wasn't it said that while Physical Body progress was fast, it became increasingly difficult towards the end?
And the resources spent and the price endured were astronomical.
And didn't it take dozens of times longer than other Cultivators of the same Realm?
But looking at Ye Lin now, Lu Daosheng could swear that Ye Lin was definitely very young, definitely not an old man.
Although he couldn't discern Ye Lin's age, from his feeling, Ye Lin was definitely very young.
After all, a Cultivator's appearance, just by looking at their face, revealed nothing.
Changing one's appearance was as easy as could be for a Cultivator.
Even individuals tens of thousands of years old could look like teenagers.
And his worldview was also refreshed by Ye Lin. Was this the world of a Prodigy?
He had been hailed as the number one of the younger generation in the Hundred Battles Spear Sect, the successor of the Spear King. Now, compared to Ye Lin, he suddenly felt his face burning with shame.
He didn't even dare to stand with Ye Lin anymore.
As the two delved deeper, the surrounding Qi grew thicker.
The tide of Blood Worms also grew, so much so that the surrounding space couldn't even hold them all.
Even so, the Blood Worms from outside were still frantically pouring in, without the slightest hesitation.
