Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 701-Chapter 833)

Goldie A’bao was secretly amazed. He thought, The eggshell is actually a rare item with spiritual properties. If I were to secretly eat a piece, I wonder what would happen to me! That was what he thought, but he truly did not have the courage to act on it. Even if he was not discovered, the spiritual medicine of others might be poisonous to him.

At this moment, he discovered another piece of eggshell the size of a little finger on the ground. He was about to pick it up when a huge centipede lunged over and swallowed it. Goldie A’bao pulled back his hand in a hurry. The most terrifying creatures in the rainforest were not tigers and leopards, but these inconspicuous, little insects. Once he was bitten, he would truly be in life-threatening danger. He did not believe the strange infant who seemed like a Fire Devouring folk would save his life either.

The piece of eggshell shone in the huge centipede’s body, and the centipede violently swelled up, growing rapidly in size. It went from the length of a hand to the size of an arm very quickly, squirming and rolling around on the ground, becoming especially vicious in appearance. Suddenly, with a pop, its body broke into over a dozen pieces, and it stopped moving.

Goldie A’bao gasped. Fortunately, he had not acted on his greed. The strange infant’s voice rang out from behind, “What are you doing? Stop dilly-dallying around!”

“Yes!” Goldie A’bao continued his search in a hurry.

Soon after he left, the ground rustled, and who knew how many insects crawled out, eating the centipede’s body. Wild beasts with a certain level of intelligence were still cautious and fearful, but insects that acted purely on instinct could not care so much. The pure life force drew them over.

It was unable to withstand the power, but after dying, its corpse drew over even more insects. Having been diluted through insect corpse after insect corpse, some insects finally survived. Their bodies swelled up violently before they devoured the other living insects.

This situation happened everywhere where a piece of eggshell had landed. The insects devoured one another furiously, forming a ball of insects. It was absolutely impossible to imagine there would be so many insects hiding in the forest if someone had not seen this with their own eyes. The corpses of the pack beasts had drawn over some insects as well, swarming over like water.

In further depths of the jungle, the gradually-approaching auras of wild beasts were unable to fool Li Qingshan’s senses.

“That’s basically it! Go bring that basket over!” Li Qingshan ate another piece of eggshell. Although he still seemed like a baby around a year old, his strength had basically recovered to the level of a grown man.

Goldie A’bao eased up inside. If he made him contend against these insects, even ten lives would not be enough. He brought over the basket, and Li Qingshan leapt up gently, entering the basket. “We’ll be leaving here for now for a quieter place!”



Although he had already recovered some of his strength and regular wild beasts could no longer harm him, saving some strength was good too since there was free labour available.

Goldie A’bao was far too happy to comply. He had wanted to leave this place a long time ago. He thought of the mountain stream he had just passed by and picked up the basket, travelling back along the same path. He left this land of death without even looking back. This time, the entire merchant group had been annihilated, with only him surviving in the end. He truly was extremely fortunate. But could he really keep his life intact?

If he accidentally angered the strange baby behind his back, he would probably be incinerated to death. Compared to the shamans eating him alive, he struggled to tell which was a little more comfortable.

The mountain stream flowed off the cliffs, turning into a rivulet that gurgled away in the rocks.

Goldie A’bao stopped. Li Qingshan questioned, “Why are you stopping?”

Goldie A’bao said, “The smell of blood on me is too heavy. I’m afraid of drawing in wild beasts, so I need to clean myself.”

“Alright!” Li Qingshan said. He happened to have some matters he wanted to get clarified so that he could decide which step he should take next.

Goldie A’bao placed down the basket on his back carefully and scooped up some water, cleaning his wounds. The wounds burned with pain. He had left in too much of a hurry. All of his medicine was left with the bags.

“Come here. I have something I want to ask you!”

“Please ask away, sir!”

“Originally, I was cultivating perfectly well in the volcano, so how did I end up here? Tell me exactly, is this your scheme?” Li Qingshan glared. Although he did not seem scary at all, the malice was there.

“Sir, how could I possess the ability to…”

Goldie A’bao explained in a hurry, telling him the process of how he had obtained the stone egg.

Li Qingshan sank into his thoughts.Obviously, he understood it was impossible for a mortal to scoop him out of the magma in the volcano. He only said that to frighten him so that he would be a little more obedient and honest. As it seemed, everything basically lined up with his guess. He really had been blasted out of the volcano. The Asura Field had probably been no different.

“Then let me ask you, have you seen a certain item?”

“What item?” Goldie A’bao thought to himself, Oh no, don’t tell me it’s the “patterned bundle”?

Li Qingshan described the Asura Field’s size and appearance, only to see Goldie A’bao’s gaze drift away. His face changed, and he barked sternly, “Where is it right now?”

“I sold it!” Unable to fool him, all Goldie A’bao could do was admit it.

“Who did you sell it to?”

“S- seems like the people from Black Water cave!”

“Seems like?”

“Yes, it’s definitely the people from Black Water cave!”

Li Qingshan nodded. He only had to find out its whereabouts. The Asura Field was his most important arcane treasure. Basically all of his possessions were in there, so he had to retrieve it. As long as he retrieved the Asura Field, he would immediately be geared to the teeth again. He could return the demon heart, Ocean pearl, and Divine Talisman of Great Creation to his body, and his strength would increase drastically.

He would be able to command the night roamers, asura, and haunts too. He could easily keep himself safe, and he could ask the Great Banyan Tree what kind of a place the Mist province was and confirm a path back to the Green province.

Once he lost the Asura Field, all of this would become a mere fantasy. However, he was not particularly worried either, as the Asura Field was an arcane treasure after all. Its wonders were concealed. Regular people definitely could not see through its functions, and even if they noticed its peculiarity, they would struggle to refine it. Even cultivators that had undergone the second heavenly tribulation would struggle to achieve that.



Back then, Mo Yu had spent several days refining it, but it still ended up in failure. Although he could not use his full strength to avoid alarming Si Qing, the Asura Field was only a Dragon Arena back then. It could not be regarded as an arcane treasure.

And, as long as someone realised the value of the Asura Field, they would store it away carefully regardless of whether they could refine it or not. As long as he knew where the Asura Field was, he would always be able to find a way to retrieve it.

Li Qingshan fell silent. Goldie A’bao felt the pressure on his chest grow heavier and heavier, such that he could not even breathe. Suddenly, Li Qingshan extended his arm. His tender hand reached towards Goldie A’bao forehead, which frightened the wits out of him. He cried out, “I can help you retrieve the treasure, sir! The people of Black Water cave might still be in the Fragrant Flower market!”
