Chapter 56: Chapter 55 Mantis Stalking the Cicada

Fire Spot Toad, a Second-stage Early-stage Demon Beast, had cultivation comparable to an Early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Human Clan.

Unexpectedly, it could transform itself into a piece of Spiritual Medicine and used that guise as bait to hunt Human Clan Cultivators, truly a malicious creature!

Ning Daoran's heart raced, aware that a Second-stage Fire Attribute Demon Core resided within the Fire Spot Toad—a treasure he had sought fruitlessly for years.

Now that he had encountered it, it was time to avenge the three fellow Daoists from the Purple Cloud Sect!

And conveniently harvest the materials from the Fire Spot Toad's body.

He used the Wood Escape Technique inside the trumpet vine tendrils, releasing his Divine Sense to scan within a hundred feet radius, confirming that aside from himself and this Fire Spot Toad, no other life forms were present.

Time to strike!
