When Ling Yi came down from the second floor, there were three more spellbooks.

As for the Five Elements Art, Qian Youcai needs time to collect them, and the Myriad Treasures Tower here doesn't have them all.

To expedite the process, Ling Yi was willing to spend ten times the amount of Spirit Stone, since he wasn't short of Spirit Stone anyway.

For Qian Youcai with the Spirit Stone in place can the collection of the complete set of Five Elements Art be accelerated.

I hope to complete the Golden Core Perfection the sect competition a month from now.

Looking at the young man blocking his way, Ling Yi immediately guessed his identity.

Judging from this person's appearance, he has absolutely no connection with a villainous or wicked individual.

Thick eyebrows, large eyes, square face and ears, clear gaze, high nose and wide mouth.

He was tall and robust, dressed in a gray-white long gown.

Judging from his appearance, he doesn't look like a villain at all. In a TV series, he would definitely be a heroic figure like Qiao Feng.

"Hello, Junior Brother Ling. I am Guo Pengsheng, and this is my younger brother Guo Wu!"

"Greetings, Senior Brother Guo!" Ling Yi remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was pondering Guo Pengsheng's attitude.

"I'm sorry, my cousin has been spoiled since childhood and has a bad temper. If he has offended me before, I apologize on his behalf."

"Brother, he's just a menial disciple. You, his personal disciple, are actually apologizing to a menial disciple. Aren't you ashamed?" Guo Wu said incredulously.

"Shut up!" Guo Pengsheng turned around and yelled at Guo Wu.

" Guo Wu, you remember this: this is the Heaven and Earth Sect. Come here and apologize to Junior Brother Ling!"

Guo Wu retorted, "You want me to apologize to a lowly servant disciple? Absolutely not!"

Guo Pengsheng's face was extremely gloomy, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes at this moment.

Guo Wu didn't notice this murderous intent at all, but Ling Yi Perception.

It seems there are quite a few of them!

But what does this have to do with him?

As long as they don't provoke him, Ling Yi won't bother with them. But if they insist on courting death, Ling Yi is not one to be trifled with.

Take Guo Wu for example, he's doomed. As Ling Yi said, even Heavenly Dao's will can't stop him.

Such a petty and vindictive person is a menace to be kept around.

However, how Guo Wu should die needs to be studied.

After all, Guo Wu belongs to Myriad Treasures Tower, and Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce Myriad Treasures Tower of Commerce is a behemoth that Ling Yi cannot afford to offend right now.

"Senior Brother Guo, there's no need to put me in such a difficult position. An apology is unnecessary. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer."

"Junior Brother Ling, I'm so sorry!"

Ling Yi didn't say anything more, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Guo Pengsheng, and went straight out the door.

After Ling Yi left, Guo Pengsheng grabbed Guo Wu by the neck and dragged him to the backyard of Myriad Treasures Tower.

Only Senior Brother Zheng and Junior Sister Yun were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

That's right, the other two people who came to Myriad Treasures Tower with Guo Pengsheng were Senior Brother Zheng Basheng and Junior Sister Yun Xing, whom Ling Yi met that night.

"Strange, why is Eldest Senior Brother being so polite to a menial disciple?" Zheng Basheng asked, puzzled.

" Our Eldest Senior Brother rarely loses his temper; this is the first time I've seen Eldest Senior Brother so out of control."

Yun Xing Yanran, "Did you notice that the handyman disciple came down from the second floor? How could a handyman disciple go up to the second floor?"

"So that means this handyman disciple is not simple?"

"Among the menial disciples, there are quite a few with extraordinary secular backgrounds, but not enough to warrant such a reaction from our Eldest Senior Brother."

"That's interesting!"

In the backyard, Guo Pengsheng casually tossed down a set of Third Pin soundproof array flags.

Then he slapped Guo Wu hard twice across the face.

The force was so great that Guo Wu Venus, felt dizzy and had tinnitus. His face swelled up and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother, brother, what's wrong?"

"Tell me, how's business at Myriad Treasures Tower lately?" Guo Pengsheng said coldly.

"Well, it's the same as before, neither good nor bad!"

"Useless trash!" Guo Pengsheng roared, "Have you forgotten why your second uncle sent you here?"

"Did you know that this year is the year the president of the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce will be replaced? Second Uncle is the most likely person to take that position?"

"But what does this have to do with that handyman disciple?"

Guo Pengsheng raised his fist, which made Guo Wu tremble in fear.

This was the first time he had ever seen his cousin so angry.

Guo Pengsheng said with exasperation, "Qian Youwei reported a profit of three million Low-Grade Spirit Stone to headquarters in the past two months."

"Second Uncle's biggest competitor is the Second Elder. The most important criterion for becoming the president is the profit generated for the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce."

"Second Uncle and Second Elder were evenly matched to begin with, but now that three million Low-Grade Spirit Stone have suddenly appeared, it's very likely that Second Elder will advance even further."

"A small difference can lead to a huge error. If the Second Elder becomes the chairman, my second uncle's faction will inevitably be suppressed, or even completely marginalized."

"There's very likely there will be no chance of a comeback."

"What? How is this possible? In the past two months, Myriad Treasures Tower hasn't sold any valuable treasures at all. Qian Youcai have falsified the accounts."

"Are you stupid? Do you think Qian Youcai dare to do something like this at such a critical moment?" Guo Pengsheng scolded.

"Brother, you don't actually think that the profit of three million Low-Grade Spirit Stone was because of Ling Yi, do you?"

Guo Wu finally got it.

"He's just a menial disciple!"

"What's wrong with being a menial disciple? Being a menial disciple just means you don't have good Spiritual Root aptitude; it doesn't mean anything else."

"Furthermore, how could a menial disciple be qualified to go up to the second floor? How could he possibly be personally entertained by Qian Youwei? Can't you use your pig brain to think about this?"

Guo Wu asked, puzzled, "But if he really is a Ling Yi, shouldn't we kill him even more?"

"We cannot act rashly before we know Ling Yi's true identity. If possible, it would be best to win Ling Yi over to our side."

"Such financial resources will surely be of considerable help to my second uncle."

He paused, then added, "Besides, how do you know Qian Youcai won't secretly protect Ling Yi? That old guy is at the peak of the Golden Core Stage Great Perfection."

"If Qian Youcai catches us red -Qian Youcai handed killing Ling Yi, even Second Uncle might not be able to protect us!"

As he looked at Guo Wu, he felt that Guo Wu was incredibly stupid.

You almost ruined everything!

Guo Wu hesitated, not daring to say much, and after a long while whispered, "Then I'll go apologize to Ling Yi."

"It's too late. Ling Yi's attitude towards you has already reached its lowest point. During this time, just keep an eye on Qian Youwei. Once he leaves Myriad Treasures Tower, immediately send me a message."

"I understand!" Guo Wu nodded quickly.

Guo Pengsheng sighed; he had been in a very bad mood lately.

"Brother, how's the matter of the true disciple going?" Seeing that Guo Pengsheng hadn't spoken for a while, Guo Wu asked, trying to make conversation.

Guo Pengsheng smiled wryly; this was truly rubbing salt in the wound.

"The possibility of becoming a true disciple is no longer possible!"

"Isn't that Zhang Yunya? Think of a way, snap!" Guo Wu made a throat-slitting gesture.

"It's not as simple as you think. I still had some hope before, but after Yan Yun chose Zhang Yunya to come back as her true disciple, all possibilities were completely gone."

"Why?"

" Yan Yun probably already knew about my involvement with the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce. Even if she had to choose Zheng Basheng and Yun Xing as her disciples, she wouldn't choose me."

"Brother, doesn't that mean you've wasted the last ten years of your life?"

"Sigh!" Guo Pengsheng sighed.

He then added, "However, since I cannot become a true disciple, I might as well control Zhang Yunya as well, just like I controlled the other nine peak disciples."

"Brother, you mean to use the Demonic Insect?"

Guo Pengsheng nodded.

"Alright, I should head back now. I'll be joining the Field Operations Department later, and I'll be leaving the sect for a while after the competition."

"We need to find a way to get the Demonic Insect for Zhang Yunya to use during this time."

"Brother, Zhang Yunya's rank is too low; her chances of becoming a sect leader are too slim. Giving her Demonic Insect would be a waste!"

Guo Pengsheng did not refute this statement.

"Brother, Ling Yi probably has a big secret. Why don't we just give him the Demonic Insect?"

"That makes sense!"

"I'll test Ling Yi first. If he's quite valuable, then I'll give him the Demonic Insect. Right now, I only have one Demonic Insect left."

"I'll take this opportunity to trade some Demonic Insect with the Myriad Insects Sect during this trip."

"Don't cause me any more trouble lately!"

"I understand, don't worry, bro!"

Guo Pengsheng shook his head, said nothing more, put away the soundproofing flags, and turned to leave.

Unbeknownst to the two brothers, Ling Yi was standing right next to Guo Wu at that moment.

The brothers simply couldn't see or Perception it.

With the Spirit Concealment Art and the Illusory Spirit Art combined, let alone those at the Qi Refining, Fourth Level and the First Layer of Foundation Establishment, even those at the Nascent Soul Stage wouldn't be able to Perception Ling Yi's presence.

He and Guo Wu watched the direction Guo Pengsheng had left in, muttering to themselves, "They're all a bunch of Old Liu!"

"This Guo Pengsheng has the face of Qiao Feng, but I never expected him to be such a treacherous villain."

"The contrast is too great."

Who could have imagined that Guo Pengsheng had actually controlled the true disciples of the other eight peaks among the nine peaks?

Good heavens, what if the sect leader of the Heaven and Earth Sect were to die one day?

If any of the true disciples were to take over, wouldn't the Heaven and Earth Sect essentially change hands completely?

It has to be said, Guo Pengsheng really knows how to play the game.

"Let's find a chance to kill them both. These two brothers are just a menace!"

Ling Yi turned to look at Guo Wu, sneered, and floated away through the wall.

Guo Wu shivered inexplicably. "Strange, why do I feel a bit cold? I'm supposed to be at the Qi Refining, Fourth Level, could it be that my Qi Refining, Fourth Level is fake?"

After returning to the courtyard, Ling Yi immediately took out the " Secret Accounts of the Immortal Cultivation Realm " from his storage ring and began searching for information about the Demonic Insect and the Myriad Insects Sect.

Sure enough, the book contained relevant information.

The Myriad Insects Sect is a sect that everyone in the Nine Rings Domain hates.

As the name suggests, the Myriad Insects Sect practices the use of Gu worms.

The cultivation method of the Myriad Insects Sect is very simple and brutal: secretly implanting the Spirit-Devouring Gu into the bodies of other cultivators.

The Spirit-Devouring Gu will slowly devour the Spiritual Qi in a cultivator's Dantian, and once it matures, it will break out of the Dantian and emerge.

This cultivator not only had all their Spiritual Power devoured, but their cultivation level was also destroyed.

Meanwhile, cultivators of the Myriad Insects Sect can rapidly improve their cultivation level through the Spiritual Power returned by the Spirit-Devouring Gu.

The cultivation methods of the Myriad Insects Sect have thoroughly enraged all the cultivation sects in the Nine Rings Domain.

It was destroyed by a coalition of various sects a thousand years ago.

But even a centipede that has died does not fall down.

Although the Myriad Insects Sect is gone, its Myriad Insects Sect leader is not dead. Not only is he alive, but he has also cultivated an even more powerful Gu insect, the Demonic Insect.

Currently, within the numerous sects of the Nine Rings Domain, countless individuals are likely controlled by the Myriad Insects Sect using Demonic Insect.

The Ten Thousand Myriad Insects Sect Myriad Insects Sect isn't just without a sect; it's everywhere!
