**Toxic Miasma!**
Toxic miasma is a dense formation of poisonous fog. Under normal circumstances, it is stable and does not drift aimlessly with the wind. However, at this moment, driven by the hurricane, the miasma was heading straight for Ye Wushuang and her two companions.
Tian Linzi quickly stepped forward, unleashing a torrent of spiritual energy from within. It roared out, forming a barrier of spiritual energy, a wall designed to block the incoming threat. But as the toxic fog approached, the spiritual wall began to corrode, making a sizzling sound, and visibly crumbling before their eyes.
“This is not ordinary toxic fog condensed into miasma!” Tian Linzi said with a dark expression. “Even my spiritual energy at the摘星化境(Star-Picking Realm)cannot withstand it.”
The妄我境(Self-Delusion Realm)is a stage where spiritual energy, transformed from the essence of nature, surges with great power. The摘星化境(Star-Picking Realm)is the second transcendence of spiritual energy, a higher level of strength. If even Tian Linzi’s condensed spiritual energy could not hold it back, one could imagine the sheer might of this miasma.
Yu Yourong stood beside Ye Wushuang, and with a wave of her hand, a spiritual shield appeared in front of her. The shield instantly grew to three zhang in height and one zhang in width, standing firm before the three of them. As the howling miasma, carried by the hurricane, approached, the shield emitted a faint glow, repelling the toxic fog.
“Divine Heaven Shield!” Tian Linzi had seen the capabilities of this shield before. It was one of the seven great divine weapons of the Spirit Sword Pavilion in the past, known for its formidable defense. He never expected that after being taken from Wen Lingqiu, it would now be in Yu Yourong’s possession. Ye Wushuang was also somewhat surprised by this turn of events. It seemed that Su Chenyang had great trust in Yu Yourong.
Yu Yourong spoke up now, “With the Divine Heaven Shield, we can continue to move forward.”
“Okay,” they agreed.
The three of them moved forward, but Ye Wushuang’s eyebrows suddenly lifted. In the palm of her hand, the Golden Silkworm was showing signs of activity.
“Do you want something?” Ye Wushuang asked curiously.
The Golden Silkworm conveyed a sense of intense longing. “Then come out!” Ye Wushuang said, flipping her palm. The Golden Silkworm broke through the flesh of her palm, revealing its translucent, jade-like body with a faint golden sheen. As soon as it left Ye Wushuang’s body, the Golden Silkworm, which was initially the size of a thumb, grew to the size of a child. It then left the protection of the Divine Heaven Shield and plunged into the miasma.
“This insect…” Yu Yourong’s expression changed slightly. “The toxin in this miasma is extremely strong. This insect may not be able to withstand it.”
Ye Wushuang remained composed. The howling wind continued to drive the miasma towards them. But soon, Yu Yourong, who had deployed the Divine Heaven Shield, was taken aback and stared ahead in astonishment. Ye Wushuang and Tian Linzi also looked over. They saw the Golden Silkworm, now the size of a child, open its mouth and directly swallow the incoming miasma.
Yu Yourong was stunned. “I knew that Golden Silkworms love toxins, but I never expected that yours has grown to this extent!”
Earlier, even Tian Linzi’s spiritual barrier had been gradually corroded by the miasma, yet this Golden Silkworm was swallowing it without any hesitation. It was truly amazing!
The Golden Silkworm continued to devour the miasma for half an hour, and finally, the toxic fog stopped drifting towards them. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, the Golden Silkworm, standing before them, began to emit golden light spots on its body. These spots pulsed, gathered, and then transformed into threads, binding around the Golden Silkworm’s body. Eventually, the Golden Silkworm became a cocoon taller than a person.
“This insect… has evolved…” Ye Wushuang’s eyes sparkled with joy. Over the past two years, the Golden Silkworm had consumed a lot of toxins to grow, especially recently within the Holy Heaven Sect. To appease it, Ye Wushuang had asked Si Luo Yi for many poisonous herbs and insects to feed it. Now, it was about to undergo metamorphosis.
The Golden Silkworm is a type of insect, and Ye Wushuang couldn’t be sure what kind of spiritual beast it would become after metamorphosis. There are many possibilities for the Golden Silkworm’s transformation; most commonly, it turns into a butterfly or a moth. However, it can also become various types of birds. Unlike other silkworms, the Golden Silkworm grows by consuming toxins, which makes its transformation unpredictable and full of surprises.
The cocoon standing on the ground soon developed cracks, and the sound of splitting was heard. The cocoon was about to break. All three of them looked on with curiosity and anxiety, wondering what the Golden Silkworm would evolve into.
Ye Wushuang was the most excited. Would it become a butterfly? A moth? A sparrow? Or something else entirely?
Suddenly, there was a thud. The cocoon fell to the ground, revealing the true form of the Golden Silkworm after its metamorphosis.
