One Must Not Be Too Greedy

Qingyan nun was picked up by Su Anping and thrown into the eastern section of the <Devouring Essence Array>.

Su Wenshi flew to Su Gan's side and used his spiritual power to lift Su Gan into the air, heading towards the <Devouring Essence Array>.

"Su Wenshi, what are you doing?"

Su Gan was shocked and furious; his physical body was collapsing, and he was powerless to resist.

Su Wenshi replied as he flew toward the Devouring Essence Array.

"Ancestor, your physical body is too old and decaying, and you are not far from death. Use your body and cultivation to help me and the patriarch break through to the Golden Core. Consider it your last contribution to the Lineage."

"No! As long as you help me complete the final step of the Essence-Devouring Longevity, my physical body can still be restored," Su Gan pleaded desperately.

"Ancestor, you've ruled the Su Clan with tyranny for over two hundred years. You should be content. One shouldn't be too greedy!"

After Su Wenshi finished speaking, he threw Su Gan into the eastern section of the <Devouring Essence Array>, while he himself landed in the center of the array.

Su Anping and Su Wenshi each held a Formation Plate and sat in the center of the formation.

Under Su Wenshi's leadership and Su Anping's cooperation, the temporarily sealed <Devouring Essence Array> was put into operation again.

The Blood Serpent within the formation were activated and swam towards Su Gan and Qingyan Daoist nun. The Blood Serpent first climbed onto Su Gan's body.

"No! Su Anping, Su Wenshi, you two traitors, you actually betrayed your master and ancestors! I am your great-grandfather..."

Even after being mutilated into a human pig, the Qingyan remained conscious. Upon witnessing this scene, she felt a sense of shared sorrow, like a rabbit mourning the death of another.

She and Su Gan schemed against each other, never expecting that they would both end up in the hands of two Foundation Establishment juniors. It was both laughable and pathetic.

At that moment, a sudden change occurred.

High in the sky, dense, dark clouds piled up, completely obscuring the stars in the Ye Kong.

A powerful and vast divine might was brewing among the dark clouds.

"Snap!"

A deafening thunderclap, a roar like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting open!

The lightning, like a giant sword, pierced the dark Ye Kong and struck the center of the <Devouring Essence Array>.

After Su Gan ordered Su Wenshi to control the contraction of the <Four Symbols Reversal Formation>, trapping Qingyan Daogu.

The Devouring Essence Array, located in the center of the valley, was thus exposed.

When Song Wen first saw the Blood Serpent in the Devouring Essence Array, an irresistible and intense desire instantly rose in his heart.

He could clearly sense that if he could devour this Blood Serpent, he would gain immense benefits.

This temptation was deeply rooted in his subconscious, like a mesmerizing voice whispering in his ear, constantly urging him to devour the Blood Serpent.

At that time, Su Gan and the Qingyan were engaged in a fierce battle, and Song Wen dared not make any rash moves.

Only after the situation took an unexpected turn, with the strongest members, Su Gan and Qingyan Daoist, both severely injured, did Song Wen put away the <Qi-Sealing Spirit-Isolating Formation> and the <Nine-Palace Yin-Transforming Formation> and leave the Cave.

As soon as he stepped out of the Cave, he saw that Su Anping and Su Wenshi had once again activated the Devouring Essence Array, attempting to plunder the cultivation of Su Gan and Qingyan.

Song Wen's first thought was that he couldn't allow the Blood Serpent to plunder the flesh and cultivation of Su Gan and Qingyan Daogu, as that would pollute the Blood Serpent and make it no longer pure.

From the previous conversation, Song Wen knew that the Devouring Essence Array could plunder the cultivation of others to improve one's own cultivation, but he did not intend to use the Devouring Essence Array to forcibly improve his own cultivation.

The main reason is that he doesn't know how to control the <Devouring Essence Array>, and under the current circumstances, there is definitely not enough time for him to slowly comprehend the <Devouring Essence Array>.

Therefore, he immediately chose to attack Su Anping and Su Wenshi to stop the <Devouring Essence Array> from continuing to operate.

After unleashing the Great Cavern Divine Thunder, which startled the two, Song Wen moved like a ghost and swiftly flew towards the <Devouring Essence Array>.

Both Su Anping and Su Wenshi froze upon seeing the sudden appearance of Lei Ting.

Su Wenshi shouted to Su Anping, "You block the Thunder Method, I'll continue controlling the formation."

"Good!"

Su Anping stood up. He didn't understand how to control the <Devouring Essence Array>. He had only managed to activate the auxiliary Formation Plate under Su Wenshi's command to help Su Wenshi restart the <Devouring Essence Array>.

At this time, if a foreign enemy attacks, it is naturally his responsibility to defend against it.

With a thought, a flying sword appeared out of thin air and slashed straight at the falling lightning.

The flying sword went against the current, shattering the falling lightning and turning it into countless tiny bolts of lightning that danced in the air.

"Hmph! A mere trick."

Seeing that the lightning was easily defeated, Su Anping felt relieved. This Thunder Method seemed powerful, but the person who cast it was not highly skilled and could not unleash Thunder Method true power.

Just as Su Anping relaxed, a figure exuding overwhelming corpse energy rushed towards him from afar.

Su Anping's eyes widened in surprise, and his expression turned serious.

Pseudo-Tier 3 Silver Corpse!

The Silver Corpse was incredibly fast, charging wildly forward and quickly approaching the <Devouring Essence Array>.

Su Wenshi, who was controlling the formation, also noticed the suddenly appearing Silver Corpse. He looked at the Blood Serpent that had climbed onto Su Gan's chest and was about to burrow into his mouth, his eyes filled with anxiety.

"Stop it! We must stop it no matter what. If it destroys the Devouring Essence Array, perhaps neither of us will ever have the chance to form our fortuitous opportunity again in this lifetime."

Su Anping glanced back at the Blood Serpent in the formation, gritted his teeth, made a hand Method Formula, and slashed his flying sword down at the Silver Corpse.

"Bang!"

The flying sword struck the Silver Corpse in the chest with a dull thud.

A foot-long gash appeared on the rotting flesh of the Silver Corpse's chest, revealing its silver ribs. The Silver Corpse was also jolted by the sword strike, stopping its forward momentum and taking a step back.

More than twenty days have passed since Song Wen last put over a hundred Yellow Essence Fungus into the Corpse-Nurturing Coffin. The Silver Corpse has already refined and absorbed all of the Yellow Essence Fungus, resulting in changes that Song Wen did not expect.

Ultimately, Corpse Puppet is just a dead body, a puppet. No matter how it is crafted or how powerful it is, it will never have any life of its own.

However, after absorbing the Yellow Essence Fungus cultivated by the Su Clan, Song Wen discovered that the rotting flesh on the Silver Corpse had actually begun to show streaks of blood.

The changes in the Silver Corpse were almost unheard of.

Everyone in the Corpse Demon Sect refines and raises corpses, yet no one has ever been known to have raised Corpse Puppet to the point of having any life. Of course, it is possible that some Corpse Demon Sect cultivators have secretly raised unique Corpse Puppet, but have not made it public.

"Roar!"

The Silver Corpse was enraged; its deathly gray eyes gleamed with Netherglow.

He raised his right hand and slapped the flying sword with his palm.

The immense force caused the flying sword to lose control and be slammed to the ground.

The Silver Corpse exerted force with its legs, suddenly accelerating, and ran towards Su Anping.

Song Wen appeared behind the Silver Corpse, his body crackling with electricity, and headed towards the Blood Serpent.

Seeing the menacing Silver Corpse and Song Wen rushing toward the Blood Serpent, Su Anping hesitated for a moment.

The Silver Corpse's strength was somewhat beyond his expectations; his full-force attack could only break through the Silver Corpse's skin and flesh.

It would be difficult for him to be a match for the Silver Corpse on his own.

"What are you waiting for? Stop them! Don't you want to Golden Core Pill?" Su Wenshi, who was controlling the Devouring Essence Array, urged.

Upon hearing this, Su Anping once again activated his flying sword and slashed at the Silver Corpse.

At the same time, he threw out a sword-shaped jade talisman.

The Jade Slip shattered in mid-air!

It transformed into a giant sword of spiritual energy, tens of meters long, and slashed down towards Song Wen.

Song Wen watched anxiously as the giant sword of spiritual energy descended upon him, his heart filled with urgency. The Blood Serpent had already crawled to Su Gan's mouth, ready to burrow into his abdomen at any moment.

Once the Blood Serpent enters Su Gan's abdomen and devours his flesh and cultivation, Blood Serpent will no longer be pure.
