Chapter 1746: Chapter 652: Wrath of the Spirit King

These thoughts flashed quickly through Zhou Chun’s mind, only to see the seven golden beetles, after gnawing on the Mana-powered big hand, swiftly following the same aura and charging towards Zhou Chun.

Of course Zhou Chun wouldn’t let them have their way. Immediately, he flicked his sleeve, sending several beams of golden light towards them.

Although this was a casual strike, it was still enough to require a Golden Elixir Early Phase cultivator to deal with it with full strength.

However, the seven golden beetles, although repelled by the golden light and fell onto the cave walls, soon shook their bodies and continued charging at him, seemingly uninjured.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun thought for a while, then directly opened his mouth and expelled the Spiritual Treasure—the “Moon Toad Pearl”, channeling the coldness contained within it towards the seven golden beetles.

This time, it worked without any mishaps. The seven golden beetles were directly frozen into ice blocks and fell to the ground.

But Zhou Chun marveled at the sight, as they hadn’t died even in this state; they were merely temporarily frozen.

“Such strong vitality! The Soul-Devouring Demon Insect shouldn’t have such resilient vitality!”

Zhou Chun exclaimed in amazement, continuing to condense the Power Big Hand to grab that golden bone bowl.

This time, he successfully grasped it, bringing it away from the altar to his front.

However, after being removed from the altar, the golden liquid inside the golden bone bowl, which was previously ripple-less, started bubbling, seemingly showing signs of breaking apart.

Witnessing this situation, Zhou Chun hastily opened his mouth, expelled his Lifebound Dharma Treasure—the “Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron”, and tossed the golden bone bowl directly into the cauldron.

The subsequent situation made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Within this very unique Dharma Treasure—the “Myriad Transformations Golden Cauldron”, the golden liquid inside the golden bone bowl quickly stabilized and no longer continued bubbling.

But due to this, until he found a better way to stabilize these golden liquids, Zhou Chun couldn’t conveniently use his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

After glancing at the golden bone bowl, he retracted his Lifebound Dharma Treasure into his body.

Subsequently, Zhou Chun didn’t let go of those golden beast bones forming the altar, directly packing them entirely into his Storage Pouch.

After accomplishing all these, Zhou Chun contemplated about the seven golden beetles on the ground, eventually deciding against taking them along or killing them.

These demon insects were likely the Spirit Pets of the Alien Race powerhouse who set up the altar. Killing them would surely trigger perception in the owner.

If he took them along, it was the equivalent of installing a locator on himself—nothing but an act of courting death!

Thus, after checking the cave once again to ensure there were no missing treasures, Zhou Chun continued using the “Minor Five Elements Barrier-Breaking Mysterious Light” secret technique to leave this place.

Outside the cave, Zhou Chun packed all the ores and various leftover miscellaneous items from the Hundred Poisons Golden Centipede nest, feeling satisfied as he returned to the surface via the passage he came through.

Once outside, Zhou Chun didn’t remain greedy or linger in the canyon basin to search for other spiritual objects, instead using the initial method to hide atop the Golden Winged Tiger and return to Heng Country.

Almost a day passed in this manner, until suddenly a sharp golden light descended into the canyon basin, heading directly into the cave where the Hundred Poisons Golden Centipede nest was located.

Immediately after, in the small cave already emptied by Zhou Chun, a ball of golden light suddenly appeared, revealing the silhouette of a male Golden Spirit Clan with a head full of golden hair.

“Who could it be? Who exactly stole the treasure of this king?”

The male Golden Spirit Clan’s golden pupils emitted a brilliant golden light, unleashing an earth-shaking roar in fury.

He had already waited for five hundred years, only needing to wait another five hundred years, to gather a bowl of “Profound Heaven Gold Liquid”. Once he drank this bowl of “Profound Heaven Gold Liquid”, he had an eighty percent chance to ascend to the Fifth-Rank Superior Spirit King, and an opportunity to compete for the next Holy King position of the Five Elements Spirit Clan.

But now, all this was gone!

Not only had the half-bowl of “Profound Heaven Gold Liquid” he gathered been stolen, but even the sacred artifact used to gather the “Profound Heaven Gold Liquid” had been taken, leaving him in utmost rage.

Without the “Profound Heaven Gold Liquid”, his probability of ascending to the Fifth-Rank Superior Spirit King dropped by fifty percent, and losing the sacred artifact meant that even if he successfully ascended to the Fifth-Rank Superior Spirit King later, he could no longer compete for the Holy King position!

Following a round of raging roars, the golden-haired male Golden Spirit Clan glanced at the still-frozen seven golden beetles, immediately using some secret technique to connect with their consciousness.

Using this secret technique to pursue, he managed to glimpse Zhou Chun’s appearance through the faint consciousness of the golden beetles, as well as the Spiritual Treasure—”Moon Toad Pearl” that Zhou Chun used!

“It’s a Human Clan cultivator, a damn Human Clan cultivator!”

The Golden Spirit Clan male was overwhelmed with a mixture of anger and shock, unable to suppress another earth-shaking roar.
