Chapter 373: Honeycomb
by Qin Sang's divine sense, fell before the Corpse Demon. In the blink of an eye, thick earthen walls rose from the ground, barring the path between the Corpse Demon and the White Cloud Mountain peop...Outside the hive, poisonous bees flew chaotically.
The spirit binding rope was well concealed, not noticed by the poison bees. It quietly approached the swarm from under the hive.
The Ghost Mantis, as its name suggests, resembles a bee in appearance. It appears in groups and its nests resemble beehives, but it is not a true bee, but rather a peculiar insect.
Unlike colonies which have a distinct queen, these creatures appear in pairs and lack a similar hierarchical structure.
If these poisonous wasps retain the characteristics of ghost wasps, Qin Sang would only need to capture a few pairs of venomous wasps.
The Spirit Binding Cord lurks in the shadows, waiting for the opportune moment. A venomous bee buzzes around its hive, expanding its range until it finally breaks free from the swarm.
The Soul Binding Cord sprung up like a serpent.
The wasp was unusually alert. Before the spirit binding rope could even wrap around it, it sensed danger and counter-attacked. Its tail targeted the spirit binding rope, stinging fiercely. Its three pairs of blood wings vibrated violently, making a piercing sound.
Once this sound spreads, it will startle the other poison bees, and they will have no choice but to flee.
Luckily, Qin Sang had been prepared. The moment the poisonous bee moved, his Binding Spirit Rope sped up suddenly, pounced forward, and firmly bound the bee. Then, he silently retreated.
The Spirit Binding Rope, with its venomous bees, landed in Qin Sang's palm.
The venomous bee was still struggling violently, but the Spirit Binding Cord, something even a Foundation Establishment cultivator could use to restrain it, held firm. What hope did a mere poisonous insect have
Qin Sang dodged the venomous bee's stinger and carefully picked up the bee to examine it. By comparing several characteristics, it was indeed very similar to the ghost bee.
Let's just call it the blood-winged devil hornet.
Others curiously crowded around, the old man softly said: "Daoist Qingfeng, could you please let me have a look at this poisonous bee"
Qin Sang knew the elder wanted to check the characteristics of the Blood-Winged Ghosthead Bee and find a way to harvest the Blood Poison Flower.
He found it very easy to capture the blood-wing hornet this time because the nest was on the outermost edge and was the smallest in size, with a sparse swarm.
Several huge beehives were clustered around the blood poison flower, with swarms of venomous bees. Just looking at them made one's scalp tingle; it was impossible to capture them one by one like this.
Unexpectedly, as Qin Sang just handed the blood-winged ghost hornet to the old man, there was a sudden 'poof' sound.
A clot of blood flew out.
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd as they scrambled to get out of the way. Looking back, the blood-winged ghost bee had self-destructed.

As mentioned in the jade slip, ghost head hornets are naturally ferocious and extremely difficult to tame. Unexpectedly, these mutated blood-winged ghost head hornets are even worse. After being captured and with no hope of escape, they would rather self-destruct.
Qin Sang's expression darkened slightly, and he used the same trick again, catching a few more. They were all like this.
Finally, Qin Sang captured all the blood-winged hell hornets around the small hive, carefully took it down, and used his divine sense to scan inside. Sure enough, it was filled with blood-winged hell hornet eggs. I wonder if these larvae can be tamed
Qin Sang thought for a moment, put the honeycomb into the mustard seed bag, and then stopped.
Firstly, others won't wait for him indefinitely. Secondly, the other hives are clustered together, making it impossible to harvest a hive without disturbing the blood-winged ghost bees.
Once the larvae hatch, it will be clear.
Qin Sang nodded to the others, signaling that they could set off.
The old man saw Qin Sang was about to leave, his face changed, "Daoist, please wait!"
"What brings you here, fellow cultivator"
Qin Sang pretended not to know.
"May I have a word with you in private"
>
The old man pulled Qin Sang aside and bowed deeply, saying, "I see that the Daoist Master is very knowledgeable about these poisonous bees. I would like to ask for your guidance and advice."Qin Sang pondered for a moment, neither agreeing nor refusing outright.
The elder, upon seeing this, suddenly understood. He took out from his pouch the lump of cold gold ore that was his share, "I have nothing valuable to offer but these lumps of cold gold ore. I hope the Daoist will accept them with a smile."
This person is quite generous, it seems the Blood Poison Flower is very important to their master and apprentice.
Qin Sang spoke frankly, "To be honest with you, I do know a little about a venomous bee called the Ghosthead Bee. Judging from what I see, these Bloodwing Ghosthead Bees should be variations of the Ghosthead Bee. However, whether they still retain the characteristics of the Ghosthead Bee after their mutation under the influence of blood miasma is something I don't know for sure."
Upon hearing this, the old man's face fell with disappointment, but he did not withdraw the Cold Gold Ore Mother.
He hadn't asked others before, but no one was willing to risk their lives for a piece of cold gold ore and provoke the poisonous bees.
Unable to do otherwise, the old man had to settle for a lesser alternative.
Qin Sang nodded, took the cold gold ore mother, picked out the description of the ghost bee characteristics in the jade slip, copied it to another jade slip, and handed it to the elder.
The master and his disciples remained, leaving only five people.
The five were all masters, rushing with all their might, their speed faster than before.

In a short while, the crowd had gathered at the foot of the mountain and pressed forward, their figures gradually disappearing into the depths of the blood miasma.
Soon after Qin Sang and the others left, a figure followed from behind.
This person stopped in place, glanced at the mountain, then at the direction Qin Sang and the others had left in. As they hesitated, their eyes suddenly narrowed, as if they had discovered something. Then, without hesitation, they activated their body technique and dashed forward.
No further incidents occurred on the road.
Kong Xin led the way diligently and responsibly, successfully exiting the range of the blood miasma.
Inside the Wuyagou Valley, there are no blood miasma except in some special areas, so there is no need to continue using the Qingyang Devil Fire to protect the body.

Qin Sang put away the jade pendant and observed her surroundings.
Within the same endless valley, inside and outside the blood miasma, they were clearly two different worlds.
Visually, there are mountains, rivers, flowers, and grass here, seeming much like the boundless valley outside.
However, the endless blood-red clouds that hung in the air and the eerie roars that echoed from afar served as constant reminders to everyone: this was the Valley of Endless Sorrow.
>
These dark clouds are probably caused by the mixture of ancient restrictions and fierce blood energy, and there might even be hidden space cracks inside. In short, it's best not to fly at high altitudes.
Kong Xin didn't say much, briefly outlining the points to watch out for, then led the way.
The first half of Wuyagou isn't too dangerous. Qi refining cultivators just need to find the right path and can enter here to search for treasures. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it becomes.
> While they traveled, it was common to detour back and forth, sometimes several times, before finding a safe path, avoiding demon hordes or unknown restrictions.
This is also the result of Qin Sang and others' strong demands.
After the incident in the underground cave, Kong Xin found it difficult to gain their complete trust. Every few miles, he would have to explain the route in detail, and then everyone would analyze and vote on it together.

This made Kong Xin tireless, yet helpless.
The journey was safe and uneventful, and we successfully reached our destination.

Over a ridge of earth, a stream like a jade ribbon flowed out from the mountain ravine.
>
Kong Xin's spirit lifted, and he uttered a low cry, "We've arrived!"
Qin Sang flashed forward, sizing up the surroundings while casually glancing back. He was secretly astonished.

Along the way, he and the Cloud Wanderer were very vigilant and deliberately revealed a few flaws.
However, the tracker never showed up again, as if they had vanished.true form also revealed itself, his gray sword quivering before slashing towards Qin Sang's nape.Sensing the rapidly approaching gray sword, Qin Sang felt a chill run down his spine and could only dod...
