Each Chun Silkworm, though its Time Cocoon lasts only three days, has four hundred and eighty days inside.

The ratio of internal to external time is 1:160.

Moreover, Silkworm Egg can be preserved for a long time as long as they are not nurtured with Years Stone and spiritual light. In other words, they can be taken out of the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin and hatched for use when needed in the future.

This demonstrates its value.

For the younger generation of martial arts practitioners who are eager to improve their cultivation and participate in the Hundred Realms Longevity Crossing, this is undoubtedly the most sought-after treasure.

However, the three-year cultivation period requires consuming a large amount of precious and refined medicines, and the cultivation process is extremely difficult, with a high risk of death. Ordinary Longevity Realm Martial Cultivator can only look on with envy.

Li Weiyi thought of using the Extreme Day Light Dew from the Fusang Divine Tree because he believed that silkworms would definitely prefer mulberry leaves.

He couldn't pick the mulberry leaves from the Fusang Divine Tree.

But those Extreme Day Light Dew, which slid down from the mulberry leaves, must have contained some subtle power.

Li Weiyi, with his hands behind his back, quietly walked behind Qing Ziqin and peered at the twenty-five silkworms crawling on the leaves of the precious medicine on the stone platform.

It is several times larger than the young silkworms of ordinary silkworms.

Their bodies are like jade, crystal clear and bright green, with some mysterious golden markings on them.

"The captain did a good job raising them; all the eggs hatched successfully."

Li Weiyi praised softly, then looked at Six Phoenix, who was lying to the side. "Learn well from the captain. From now on, the task of raising silkworms will be entrusted to you."

These twenty-five silkworms were Tang Wanzhou, Nangong, Zhao Tang, Li Weiyi, and Qing Ziqin each.

Keep half of them, and leave the other half.

To prevent them from dying due to lack of experience.

Before they left, the three of them entrusted their Silkworm Egg to Li Weiyi and Qing Ziqin for help in hatching.

Chi Haohan gave the Chang Yujian, while Yan Zhiruo gave it to Liu Ye.

The third-realm expert from Lesser Yang Division has been gone from Chun City for several months. Now, it is Li Weiyi and three others who remain at the post.

Qing Ziqin didn't turn to look at Li Weiyi, knowing that Six Phoenix and Second Phoenix were watching her. She was upset. "These are only in the larval stage. It's hard to say how many adult silkworms they can raise. Every time you go into seclusion, you dump them all on me. Are you going to raise them from now on?"

Li Weiyi, naturally, wouldn't be distracted by this. He patted Six Phoenix, who was perched on the stone platform watching the larvae, and said, "Once you teach it, it will definitely be able to take good care of you. After all, the Chun Moth is a moth, and so is this one."

"The sky has fallen! How could one of them die? It was perfectly fine yesterday."

The sound of Chang Yujian's pain came from the side.

Li Weiyi quickly went over, glanced at the lifeless silkworm, and comforted it, "The dead one looks like Chi Haohan."

"Even if you take this joke to the extreme, I can't laugh now. If five or six of them die in the future, am I supposed to tell them that the dead are his and the living are mine?"

Chang Yujian looked dejected, questioning whether she could successfully raise silkworms.

He entered the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin in preparation for breaking through to the third realm of the Longevity Realm, and then challenging Mo Duanfeng and Bai Chuan. The appearance of the Chun Silkworm gave him hope, but now that the young silkworms have died, he has naturally suffered a setback.

Liu Ye walked over from the direction of the encampment gate, her expression grave. "Breaking news: the Departed Spirit Army has already entered the Netherworld Spirit Mountain and will be able to march on Chun City within a day. The threat is imminent. At that time, even if the formation of our encampment is ten times stronger, it will still be crushed."

Six months ago, Li Weiyi handed over all the thousands of Ghost-faced Owl in Luo Pingdan's bag to Liu Ye for use in spying.

"What are the reactions from the various factions in Chun City?" Li Weiyi asked.

"In recent days, Chun City has become completely deserted, with cultivators from all sides rushing to Netherworld Spirit Mountain. They believe that the arrival of the Departed Spirit Army there must be a reason, or perhaps a great treasure has appeared. Ghost-faced Owl reported that the Phoenix Carriage Chi Yuan, the son of Crimson Phoenix, gave to the true disciple of the Dao Palace has already left the city and gone far away."

Liu Ye added, "There's another piece of news: a Seven-Thousand-Year Elixir has been discovered in the Sacrificial Pit Ten Thousand Tombs Area."

"This is fake news; they're trying to lure me out of my base and assassinate me. They must think I'll lower my guard after the cultivators from Chun City head to Netherworld Spirit Mountain. They also know that I need high-grade medicinal herbs to cultivate my Seven Mysterious Insects."

This was Li Weiyi's first reaction!

Even Sixty-Five-Hundred-Year Elixir is worth more than 100 million Spring Coin.

Seven-Thousand-Year Elixir, doubled in value, is something even ordinary Great Longevity wouldn't dare to dream of.

Liu Ye's eyes narrowed slightly. "Judging from the description, it doesn't seem fake."

"What description?" Li Weiyi asked.

Liu Ye said, "The news came from the Demon Race. They say that the herb has transformed into Half-Human, Half-Elixir form, its entire body shrouded in Azure Radiance. It moves like lightning, can fly and burrow underground, and its combat power is comparable to a third-stage Longevity Realm martial artist. Its speed is even more impressive, making it difficult for the Fourth Realm Longevity Realm martial artist to catch up. Judging from the description, it seems very much like Heaven Spirit Cub."

All five Phoenix Wing Moth Emperor gathered around Li Weiyi, pricking up their ears to listen.

Second Phoenix said, "Whether it's true or false, I'll be able to sense it once I go there."

Li Weiyi glanced at it. "Don't rush, let it investigate after Seven Phoenix Breakthrough."

Li Weiyi naturally hoped that all Seven Phoenix Wing Moth Emperors would break through to the Second Realm, or even the Second Realm Peak. That way, after forming Combined Attack Formation, his combat power would greatly increase.

Even if they disperse to kill enemies and search for treasure, they can still quickly accumulate wealth.

The Sentinel Spirit Army offer rewards for slaying the undead.

Once you've amassed enough wealth, you can venture into the Holy City of Various Life Realms and plunder precious herbs and elixirs.

Since arriving in the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin, Li Weiyi has always prioritized finding rare resources and accumulating wealth.

Another year has passed.

Li Weiyi sat cross-legged in the Blood Mud Space, his appearance solemn and dignified, exuding a tranquil Buddhist aura.

Make the Shī Yī Seal with your right hand, place it in front of your chest, palm facing outwards, fingers pointing upwards.

"Sizzle!"

The Immortal Mist Pure Radiance from the Divine Palace, along with the Four-colored Spiritual Light emanating from between his brows, collided at the palm of his hand, one above the other.

Green Karma Fire surged from the crimson gourd placed in front of him and gathered inside.

"Splash!"

Mind-Martial Combination, magical energy and spiritual light ignite, causing a transformation in power that radiates Glazed Radiance.

The fifth level of the Six Purifying Karma: the Glazed Pure Fire.

Li Weiyi looked around and found that the entire Blood Mud Space had turned into a sea of fire, engulfing everything.

With a gentle movement of his Shī Yī Seal instantly activated all the Glazed Pure Fire. As long as he struck out with his palm, he could activate all the Glazed Pure Fire and unleash the power of the fifth level of the Emperor Technique.

"The fifth level is considered the beginning!"

"Can its power compare to the fifth-level, fully-cultivated imperial technique they've mastered? It's estimated there's still a gap, but its power shouldn't be inferior to a fifth-level, fully-cultivated Major Technique."

Li Weiyi knew that those martial artists in the third realm could greatly increase their combat power once they mastered the fifth level of Major Technique. Unfortunately, very few could actually achieve that level.

After all, many Great Longevity have failed to master the fifth level of the Major Technique.

In short, with this "Glazed Pure Fire" technique, Li Weiyi is now on par with any of the top masters of the younger generation in terms of Daoist skills.

The drawback is that he's only just begun, and casting spells takes a lot of time. In actual combat, who will give him that time?

I still need to practice.

Li Weiyi examined the Soul Return Lock internally and found that the chain was only one-third the thickness of its original length and had already developed cracks.

He was very satisfied with the steady and methodical progress he had made in just a year and a half.

Hearing Second Phoenix's voice transmission outside, Li Weiyi put away the escaping Glazed Pure Fire and covered the crimson gourd.

The Karma Fire within the crimson gourd was collected by Lesser Yang Division's teammates after they slew the Departed Spirit Commander of the Ancient Ye City, and then sent back from Netherworld Spirit Mountain specifically for him to cultivate the Six Purifying Karma.

Of course, Li Weiyi, who was far behind the lines, also crafted Immobilization Talisman and Divine Speed Talisman for them.

With his current cultivation level Saint Mind Master at the Second Realm, the immobilization Immobilization Talisman he crafts is something even martial artists at the Peak Third Realm would be extremely wary of. It's difficult for it to stick to the body, but as long as the opponent is wary, it's comparable to a powerful Major Technique.

Back at the Barracks, Li Weiyi asked Second Phoenix, "What's wrong?"

"That seven-thousand-year-old Heaven Spirit Cub has reappeared! Many experts from the Demon Race just flew over. The Immortal Seeking Bead showed fluctuations, and even the Earth Spirit Cub said it must be the Heaven Spirit Cub." Second Phoenix was very excited.

Once you catch that Heaven Spirit Cub, even just eating a single leaf would be enough to rapidly elevate it to the Second Realm Peak.

Although it can devour souls, it dares not consume too many, for fear of affecting its sanity.

In the past year, news of a 7,000-year-old elixir has circulated several times, but Li Weiyi has remained unmoved.

But this time, after Li Weiyi went out, he saw the Azure Radiance of dawn on the horizon and could hear the sounds of battle. The air was filled with a faint Medicinal Fragrance.

It seems to be true.

Staff Spear of All Things, are planted in the courtyard, drawing in the moonlight of passing years.

The entire courtyard resembled a sea of light.

The Chun Silkworm, shrouded in thick moonlight, had molted three times and entered its fourth instar. Its body was growing rapidly, already three inches long, radiating a jade-like luster. Its entire body was shrouded in mist, and some strange changes in Time Layer were observed.

They are now eating the Thousand-Year Elixir sent back by their teammates from the Lesser Yang Division.

After Chang Yujian killed five of them, she gave the remaining five to Qing Ziqin and asked her to help raise them.

Liu Ye made the same choice.

Li Weiyi walked to the Staff Spear of All Things, Qing Ziqin sat cross-legged beneath it, absorbing the moonlight of time.

She opened her bright eyes and saw that Li Weiyi had some concerns. "Thanks to the Chun Silkworm, I have already broken through to the Second Realm of the Saint Mind Master. I can guard the base, so you can go without worry."

"Besides the light of the Chun Silkworm, there's also the Netherworld Soul Divine Marrow that Tang Wanzhou and Nangong brought back," Li Weiyi said with a smile.

Qing Ziqin knew why he said that. She stood up gracefully, her chest trembling with anger. She raised her face and looked up at Li Weiyi, who was much taller than her, meeting his gaze at very close range. "You still doubt me? You're most worried about me? A year and a half ago, when Sheng Si and the others went out, Luo Yinji appeared!"

Li Weiyi looked at her pretty face, so close to his own, which seemed to remain forever youthful. "Captain, with such a sensitive personality, how can I entrust the base to you?"

"Bang!"

Chang Yujian slammed the door open and burst out, laughing heartily, "Five years! Five years! I, Chang, have broken through to the Second Realm of the Longevity Realm! Brother Weiyi, you can go ahead; I'll take care of things at the base!"
