The Glorious Summoner
Chapter 389

389 A new realm Pearl

After killing one Mantis blade bug, Xia Pingan waved his hand and sent the Mantis blade bug into the spatial warehouse.

It had been a long time since the secret mandala’s storage had received new zergs.

As soon as the Mantis blade bug was sent in, a group of craftsmen, farmers, and alchemists in the secret mandala rushed over and started to get busy. They began to cut the Mantis blade bug into eight pieces. The craftsmen were busy peeling off the shell and limbs of the Mantis blade bug, while the alchemists were busy collecting the flesh, blood, and organs of the Mantis blade bug.

In just a moment, while Xia Pingan was still reveling in the joy of killing the Mantis blade bug with zero divine power consumption, the craftsmen and alchemists in the secret mandala found a realm Pearl and a black insect crystal from the Mantis blade bug’s body.

The insect crystal looked similar to the one Xia Pingan had collected for the first time. However, the realm Pearl almost made Xia Pingan grin. It was a green realm Pearl that kept changing its color like a chameleon. Sometimes, it would even become completely transparent. If one did not pay attention, one would not notice it. In the realm Pearl, there were four small venomous insects-a leaf that blocked one’s vision!

It was indeed a new rare realm Pearl.

Fusing with this new realm Pearl was too easy. It should not take more than a few minutes.

Xia ping ‘an wanted to replace a place nearby to quickly fuse with this realm Pearl. Suddenly, his ears twitched. There was movement from the crack next to him. Another Mantis blade bug had climbed up from below.

With the experience from the first battle, the second Battle would be much easier. Xia Pingan was more experienced in dealing with this.

As soon as the second Mantis blade bug crawled out from the crack in the ground, it saw Xia ping ‘an and immediately rushed over. Xia ping’ an flashed and once again rushed to the back of the Mantis blade bug. The huge sword in his hand was ruthlessly thrust into the Mantis blade bug’s neck. With one strike, he broke through the Mantis blade bug’s defense and instantly injured it.

The Mantis blade bug’s reaction to the attack on its neck was exactly the same as the first one. It used its two terrifying forelimbs to sweep at its back without thinking.

However, this time, with the experience of dealing with the first Mantis blade bug, Xia ping ‘an had an easier time dealing with it. He was already prepared for it. The moment the Mantis blade bug’s forelimbs swept over, Xia ping’ an waved his hand and summoned a simple net that instantly wrapped around the Mantis blade bug’s forelimbs, causing the Mantis blade bug’s movements to suddenly slow down and stop for a moment.

Of course, the net technique could not bind the Mantis blade bug, but it only needed to bind it for an instant.

The moment the Mantis blade bug’s two forelimbs were trapped, the big sword in Xia Pingan’s hand once again became a guillotine. He pressed the hilt of the sword with both hands and swung it at the side of the Mantis blade bug’s neck with all his might.

With a loud crack, the Mantis blade bug’s neck was almost cut in half by Xia Pingan’s attack. Green blood spurted out of the Mantis blade bug’s neck in a fan shape, spraying out like a curtain of rain. The Mantis blade bug let out a strange, shrill cry.

At this moment, the Mantis blade bug’s forelimbs tore through the net technique and continued to stab toward Xia Pingan. However, Xia Pingan had already flipped over and easily dodged the Mantis blade bug’s attack.

This time, only half of the Mantis blade bug’s head was stuck to its neck. Its huge body staggered a few steps on the ground and fell left and right as if it was drunk. Its entire body was completely out of shape.

The Mantis blade bug let out a shrill cry. It probably never thought that the human Summoner in front of it would be so terrifying. The soul tool in his hand was so powerful that he could severely injure it with just the weapon in his hand without the help of powerful spells.

Seeing that Xia ping-an had dodged, the Mantis blade bug thrust its forelimbs into the ground-black ice immediately spread from the ground towards Xia ping-an-who had just landed on the ground-like waves.

Xia ping ‘an jumped up. After being covered with Black Frost, a stalactite that was as tall as a person behind him was frozen into pieces with a cracking sound and fell to the ground.

The Mantis blade bug’s move was too brutal. It was not inferior to the Black Tortoise’s breath.

After the attack, a cloud of black gas surged out of the Mantis blade bug’s body. It wrapped around its already staggering body and drooping neck. It retreated, trying to retreat back into the cracks in the ground.

The Mantis blade bug that sensed the aura of death was actually running for its life? This made Xia Pingan’s judgment of the Mantis blade bug’s intelligence improve a little. However, Xia Pingan would not let this Mantis blade bug go.

A complete Mantis blade bug was so fast that it was nothing in front of Xia ping ‘an, not to mention this Mantis blade bug that had been severely injured. Not only did it slow down, but its steps were also a little messy.

In a flash, Xia ping ‘an rushed to the side of the Mantis blade bug and slashed down with the giant sword in his hand.

The huge sword easily tore through the layer of black Qi over the neck of the Mantis blade insect and the carapace under the black Qi. Closely after that, it broke the tendons, muscles and bones on the drooping half of the neck. As a result, the Mantis blade insect’s head fell onto the ground once again. After struggling for a short while, it finally became still.

This was the second Mantis blade bug that Xia Pingan had killed.

With a wave of his hand, Xia Pingan kept the Mantis blade bug’s body into the spatial warehouse.

This Mantis blade bug did not have a realm Pearl in its body, only a black insect crystal.

After killing the two Mantis blade bugs, the surrounding Valley became quiet again. Xia Pingan waited for a while, but there were no more Mantis blade bugs appearing from the cracks in the ground. He summoned the Child of Fortune to look around, but there were no other Summoners hiding in the surroundings.

Xia Pingan’s hand moved, and the giant sword was put away. Then, he rose into the air, covered his figure with an illusion, and flew toward the sky above the Grand Canyon.

There were dense cracks and caves on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon. Some of those cracks and caves were natural while some were left by Mantis blade insects and former Summoners.

After a short while, Xia Pingan found a deep cave on the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon and entered it in a flash.

The cave was full of twists and turns, and it was like a maze inside. The entrance was too narrow, and the Mantis blade bugs could not enter. Only people could get in.

After going a thousand meters deep into the cave, Xia Pingan summoned a Black Tortoise the size of a table to guard the entrance. He entered the cave and found a dry place to sit down cross-legged. He took out the realm Pearl that had blinded him just now and prepared to merge with it.

After a Summoner obtained a realm Pearl in the wild, it was impossible for them to bring it to the city and fuse it. Although the latter was safer, there were always some bold Summoners who would replace a place in the wild to fuse the realm pearls when the conditions were met.

The biggest risk of fusing the boundary Pearl in the wild, other than the Zerg, was the other Summoners with ulterior motives. The former could be restricted by the terrain. For example, this cave, the Mantis blade bug could not enter. If it wanted to enter, it would make a lot of noise and it would take a long time. It would have to dig open the cave and the mountains along the way, which would give the summoner who was fusing the boundary Pearl in the cave time to react.

As for the latter, he could use powerful summoned creatures to deter them.

If a normal Summoner saw that these places were guarded by the summoned creatures summoned by other Summoners, they would guess that there was a Summoner resting in seclusion or fusing with the realm bead. In order to avoid any misunderstandings, they would avoid it and would not enter rashly.

If they saw the summoned creatures guarding the place and still wanted to force their way in, they would be seen as robbers with evil intentions. They had completely fallen out with each other and were in a life-and-death struggle.

Fusing with a realm Pearl could take anywhere from a few minutes to a few days. It was definitely risky to fuse in the wild, but it depended on whether one was willing to enjoy the convenience.

Xia ping ‘an was willing!

Because he knew that this realm Pearl would not take long.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t waste any time. As soon as he sat down, he pricked his finger with a silver needle and dripped his blood on the realm Pearl. In a short while, Xia ping’ an was wrapped in a ball of light.

......

Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes and found himself wearing patched clothes. He was sitting cross-legged on a straw mat in a simple straw hut, and he was holding a bamboo slip in his hand.

The bamboo slip was “Huai Nan Zi,” and there was a sentence on it-“the Mantis waiting for the cicada to self-cover its leaves can be invisible to the wind.”

There were no punctuation marks on the bamboo slips in this era. Xia Pingan was happy when he saw the sentence.

The scholar from Chu who left behind the one-leaf-blind man was a man with the spirit of knowledge and evidence. The later generations would laugh at him for being a fool, but this kind of evidence spirit was rare.
