Chapter 673: Reward, Dao Artifact Fragment! (4K)

The Blood Bat Cave had turned into a ruin, its heretic cultivators and Demon Race inhabitants nearly all dead or mortally wounded.

Chi Mei and Wang Liang, two Emperor Level assassins, lay in the rubble, drenched in blood, their breaths faint.

They had never anticipated that Lu Changsheng’s strength would be so outrageously strong, nor that his magical treasure would be a top-grade Emperor Soldier, completely surpassing their expectations.

“Go.”

From the wide sleeves of Lu Changsheng flew two black six-winged Demonic Insects.

On the carapaces of the two six-winged Demonic Insects were patterns that looked eerily like human faces.

The faces of the two Emperor Level assassins blanched upon seeing the six-winged Demonic Insects.

Marrow-Eating Bugs, seventeenth grade magical creatures, could devour a person’s brain marrow and then control the host. They were sinister parasitic creatures cultivated by heretic practitioners of the Demon Realm, truly terrifying.

“Spare us!”

Chi Mei and Wang Liang, the two Emperor Level assassins, hastily pleaded for mercy.

They certainly did not want their brains eaten by Marrow-Eating Bugs.

However, it was already too late. The Marrow-Eating Bugs burrowed into their nostrils, entered their Sea of Consciousness, devouring their brain marrow.

The two Emperor Level assassins let out agonizing screams as their bodies contorted.

“One Marrow-Eating Bug is worth 80 billion contribution points, and the Treasure Pavilion of the Holy Land Tai Hua only had two of them. It’s a pity that each Marrow-Eating Bug can only control one host.”

Lu Changsheng had exchanged two Marrow-Eating Bugs, paying a hefty price in treasures for them.

Now, the two Marrow-Eating Bugs could finally be put to use.

The Marrow-Eating Bugs could not only suck the brain marrow of their victims but also devour their Sea of Consciousness and memories, replacing the host’s brain, and manipulating the host’s body.

From the outside, a cultivator parasitized by a Marrow-Eating Bug may not look much different from usual, but in reality, they had become lifeless puppets.

Marrow-Eating Bugs were magical creatures only found in the Demon Realm, mutated from absorbing massive amounts of demonic Qi. It was during a clash with the Demon Realm Elders that Tai Hua Holy Land managed to seize these demonic creatures, which eventually fell into the hands of Lu Changsheng.

Chi Mei and Wang Liang, both Emperor Level assassins with the special constitution “Twin Soul Physique” and skilled in assassination, had become puppets, useful as hitters or cannon fodder.

Even under the control of Marrow-Eating Bugs, they could continue to cultivate.

Chi Mei and Wang Liang struggled for a long time, but as the last of their brain marrow was consumed by the Marrow-Eating Bugs, they eventually ceased to struggle, their gazes empty.

Their movements were somewhat stiff as they moved their joints continuously, appearing insect-like – it seemed the Marrow-Eating Bugs had yet to adapt to human cultivators’ bodies.

This scene was somewhat eerie.

Even Lu Changsheng was secretly startled by the potency of Marrow-Eating Bugs.

The methods of the Demon Realm’s strong were eerie and unpredictable.

It seemed that if he ever encountered the Demon Realm’s strong in the future, he would have to be extra careful, lest he fall into a trap unwittingly.

If not for the availability of Marrow-Eating Bugs in the Treasure Pavilion of Tai Hua Holy Land for exchange, Lu Changsheng might never have witnessed the terrifying power of Marrow-Eating Bugs.

A single Marrow-Eating Bug was valued at 80 billion contribution points, and now it seemed well worth the cost.

It took a while, but eventually, the movement of the two assassins became fluid. They knelt down to Lu Changsheng, “Master.”

Lu Changsheng simply nodded.

Having two Emperor Level assassins for covert protection on his travels was quite impressive.

Lu Changsheng summoned the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda and released Grandmaster Taixu and Jianjia.

Inside the Treasure Space, Grandmaster Taixu and Jianjia had witnessed Lu Changsheng defeat two Emperor Level assassins, followed by the scene of Marrow-Eating Bugs devouring the brains of those assassins, sending a chill down their spines.

The expression of agony and struggle on the faces of the Emperor Level assassins as the Marrow-Eating Bugs consumed their brain marrow was shocking.

However, since the two Emperor Level assassins had sought to kill Lu Changsheng, this treatment by him could be considered their own fault.

Jianjia’s gaze towards Lu Changsheng was filled with even more admiration.

Two Emperor Level assassins were enough to make any Preliminary Immortal Emperor or lower cultivation level cultivator quake in fear, yet Lu Changsheng had easily defeated them and even controlled them with Marrow-Eating Bugs.

Jianjia nervously touched one of the Emperor Level assassins with her finger, finding no reaction from him before she finally let out a sigh of relief.

“Longevity, have you managed to guess who issued the bounty, hiring two Emperor Level assassins to kill you? The offer must have been substantial; otherwise, two Emperor Level assassins wouldn’t risk being pursued by Taihua Divine Mountain to kill you.”

Grandmaster Taixu did not believe the crisis to be over.

Whoever could afford to hire two Emperor Level assassins to assassinate Lu Changsheng must have an exceptional background.

A Preliminary Immortal Emperor, even if they spent their entire fortune, might not be able to afford two assassins at the level of Immortal Emperor.

A Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperor, due to their prolonged cultivation period, might have substantial wealth; even so, hiring two assassins at the Immortal Emperor level would still require them to grit their teeth to assemble the necessary Immortal Stones and treasures.

Lu Changsheng was the Holy Son of Tai Hua, and if the assassination were to succeed, Lin Xuantong might employ the Time Law to find out who killed Lu Changsheng, then send Supreme Elders for retribution, or even personally take action.

Therefore, to motivate Chi Mei and Wang Liang to take the job, an even greater price had to be paid.

The enemy who had placed the bounty through Eternal Night was indisputably powerful, but wary of provoking Lin Xuantong, hence they did not take action personally, opting instead to hire assassins.

“I have a few suspects in mind, but I cannot be certain yet. The best course of action for now is to remain unchanged and react to all changes. If they want to kill me and keep failing, they will become impatient and inevitably reveal themselves,” Lu Changsheng said.

“You’ve grown a lot since the days at Mount Shu,” Grandmaster Taixu said, appreciating the junior.

Now, Lu Changsheng’s realm far exceeded those of the Mount Shu predecessors, and even Grandmaster Taixu had come under Lu Changsheng’s protection.
