Chapter 237: The Gathering of Powerhouses

“There’s definitely more than one king in their nest. Who knows, there might even be an insect emperor among them...”

An insect emperor. If nurtured properly, the achievements it could produce in the future would be nothing short of amazing. In addition to its superior combat strength, it also possessed the ability to control all insects throughout the world.

“Strictly speaking, Lil’ Die shares a similar amount of potential as well. However, in order to make use of that potential, she must have the opportunity to grow up.” Bai Luo said with a smile.

While looking at Lil’ Die who was sleeping soundly at the side, Lin Mo smiled.

Lin Mo did not expect the Colorful Fire Demon that had came from the auction rebate to possess such potential. He had really struck it big with her...

“However, it takes a lot of spiritual energy to raise an Insect Emperor. Losing it halfway would render all prior efforts for naught.” Bai Luo shook her head.

Following that, she looked at Lin Mo and chuckled, “Therefore, if you can’t afford to raise Lil’ Die, you might as well hand her over to me.”

She added that if Lin Mo were to agree to her deal, she would provide him with a tier 9 spirit-grade sword cultivation technique in return.

The generous offer made Lin Mo even more curious about the girl’s identity.

“How about it? Are you tempted yet?” Bai Luo asked, unwilling to give up on Lin Die.

“I won’t stop her if she truly desires to leave with you,” Lin Mo said with a smile. Although he was tempted to accept the deal, he would not go against Lin Die’s wishes.

If Lin Die was willing to leave with Bai Luo, he would not stop her. Moreover, he would also still treat her as his own sister.

However, when Lin Die woke up, the first person she went to was Lin Mo, not Bai Luo. The outcome had already been decided.

“Sigh, I hope you can grow up smoothly.” Bai Luo looked reluctant. She liked Lin Die very much.

“Let’s put this conversation on hold. Where are we going next?” Lin Mo asked.

He wanted to investigate the nest below and retrieve the Insect Emperor. After all, it could be used as a gift for Bai Luo or Jiang Xiyue.

However, upon being informed of how rare Insect Emperors were, Lin Mo’s plans were shattered.

“Forget it, Lil’ Die is working right now. Since we’ve already secured the meat and wine, all we need are veggies and we’ll be able to start our feast.” Bai Luo urged.

In the end, under Lil Die’s lead, the group searched for medicinal herbs scattered within the Dragon Transformation Pool’s alternate dimension. Throughout their search, they made sure to avoid as much conflict as possible.

Even though there were rumors of someone discovering a half-step spirit-grade martial art, they did not do anything about it.

Although having more skills would not harm them, there was still the issue of their affinity with the skill.

Moreover, competition within the pool was fierce. It was said that many from the Yan Huang Board of Fame had entered the pool.

Lin Mo’s group had no desire to interact with them. Their sole goal was to obtain resources that could increase their strength.

“Oh right, didn’t you kill Kong Xuan? The blood of the Peacock Spirit Clan’s heir would make for a perfect ingredient for the precious medicine we found.”

After searching for a long time, the four of them had finally located all the herbs recorded within the ancient recipe. There were more than a dozen tier 9 herbs.

One of them was even a tier 1 spirit-grade herb.

While they were out collecting herbs, Lin Mo and gang had also encountered a golden-red Water Dragon. Bai Luo and Lin Mo had to work together to repel it. It took them great effort to hold it back.

In the end, once Yan Rong had picked up the herb in the dragon’s domain, the four of them immediately ran off. The Water Dragon gave chase, and they had to travel more than a thousand miles before it finally stopped pursuing them.

After all their running, they reached the area where the half-step spirit-grade martial arts was rumored to be at.

The place was a mess. Broken weapons and puddles of blood were scattered everywhere.

Moreover, they had also received news that the rumored martial arts technique was fake.

Many of those who had fought there and met their end had come from powerful sects.

There were even those from Holy Lands who perished there.

“What a tragic scene. It’s fortunate that we didn’t participate in it.” Yan Rong counted his blessings.

“The person who set this trap is ruthless. To think that he managed to catch and kill this many people with it.”

Lin Mo sighed. Some would rather loot from the corpses of others than to search for the resources within the area through their own efforts.

However, according to the passersby, the person who set this trap had initially intended to trap and kill those who were from the imperial family.

The goal was to lure the imperial family there, and once they had arrived, the person would claim that the imperial family had taken the martial arts techniques for themselves. By doing so, the hope was to antagonize the imperial family such that everyone would go after them.

However, the one known as Elder Mo from the imperial family had an extremely sharp gaze. He was able to smell the trap from a mile away, and after scanning his gaze across the area, the imperial family left the scene.

In the end, once the other powerful sects and clans had noticed the imperial family’s disinterest in the technique, they immediately made their moves on the treasure, causing the heavy casualties that Lin Mo and his group saw.

In fact, some large sects’ forces were wiped out entirely, and with that, they could no longer gain anything from the Dragon Transformation Pool.

“How ruthless, to think that they were attempting treason...” Lin Mo commented.

“Although the Emperor of the Yanhuang Divine Empire is pedantic, he is still powerful in his own right. Moreover, the royal family of this region wields powerful resources. They are not to be trifled with.” Bai Luo commented as well.

“Forget it, it’s none of our business. As long as nothing happens to Qianqian...” Lin Mo smiled casually.

With Elder Mo around, Qianqian’s safety was practically guaranteed. As such, Lin Mo had nothing to worry about.

“By the way, why did you join the eighth prince’s faction?” Bai Luo asked, puzzled.

She had never understood why that despite Lin Mo’s overwhelming talent, he had chosen to join the eighth prince’s ranks.

With his luck and resources, he was bound to become a major powerhouse in the future, one that was able to stand tall among giants.

“If you desire freedom, I’m able to help you. I can take you away from here.” Bai Luo offered her help.

Lin Mo had great potential. Should he stay within the Yanhuang Divine Empire for too long, it was very likely that he would be unable to grow due to an exhaustion of resources.

After all, no matter how much potential a person had, they would still be influenced by their environments.

“I’m not her subordinate. It only looks that way to you observers.” Lin Mo smiled and thanked Bai Luo for her kindness.

However, he did not need her help. On the contrary, it was Jiang Xiyue who needed his help...

“Forget it. The politics of the Yanhuang Empire is really complicated. I’d rather not participate in it if I can.”

Bai Luo had not expected the friend she had casually made to be a genius,especially not one who had close ties to the Yanhuang Divine Empire.

“However, you still need my help in the ruins, right? Do you have any enemies that you wish to wipe out? We can work together and split the profits 50-50.”

Bai Luo said with a sweet smile and a pure expression.

Despite the angelic appearance she had portrayed, the words she spoke were like that of a devil’s...

“Brother, Sister Bai Luo, I’m hungry. Let’s eat...” Lin Mo and Bai Luo were discussing whether to take on the Primordial Sun Holy Land or the Mu family when suddenly, Lin Die interjected.

“Let’s eat!” Lin Die spoke up.

Although she was not truly hungry, she could not hold back the urge to taste the legendary Silver Striped Koi, as well as the Silver Arowanas.

Now that their search for the medicinal herbs had come to an end, their next goal was to find a spot to eat in peace.

“Okay, let’s give Lin Die a chance to enjoy herself. We need to find a place to hide before we feast.” Bai Luo said with a chuckle.

The four of them left the battle-scarred area. After wandering about, they soon located a hidden valley.

As they poured their ingredients into boiling water, a faint fragrance soon spread across the valley...
