Chapter 417: Chapter 402: Butterfly Emperor?

“Truth Company?”

Li Cunxu recalled for a moment, but there was no impression of the Truth Company in his mind.

“In my past life, I never encountered any game plot related to the Truth Company, but this Truth Company is probably not a minor force.”

Disaster beasts are extremely terrifying. To dare to approach them, this force is not simple.

Li Cunxu asked the little white spider, “Do you have any information about the Truth Company?”

In her free time, the little white spider had memorized all the openly available information about the Alliance’s forces.

The little white spider shook her head and said, “There is no record of this ’Truth Company’ in the Alliance.”

Li Cunxu stroked his chin, pondering, “Could it be a secret organization?”

“Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Dog, please call grandpa online, I want to ask him.”

Li Cunxu planned to ask Li Shiji. Li Shiji was well-informed and might know about the Truth Company.

Li Shiji used the Dao Heart Demon Seed Eye Technique, his consciousness attaching to the Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Dog. At this moment, the dog’s eyes became a blooming magic lotus.

Li Shiji said, “Are you in some sort of trouble?”

Li Cunxu said, “Grandpa, do you know of a force called ’Truth Company’?”

Li Shiji’s brow furrowed, “Didn’t you promise me, before reaching King level, not to investigate your parents’ affairs?”

“Huh? I didn’t investigate anything.”

Asking about the Truth Company, how did it relate to investigating his parents’ affairs?

Li Cunxu snapped back to reality, his eyes slightly narrowed, turning extremely dangerous.

“The culprit who harmed my sister, causing her to be eroded by the four divine powers, forcing my parents to feign death to escape, it was ’you’!”

Li Cunxu placed the Truth Company on his must-kill list.

Seeing Li Cunxu’s reaction, Li Shiji realized he had misunderstood and let slip.

Li Shiji said, “Wait until you become a Venerable King, then seek revenge. The waters this Truth Company swims in are quite deep.”

“A Venerable King enacts revenge? This Truth Company has Venerable King-level strong persons.”

“Yes, this force is very mysterious, it might even have more than just a Venerable King. Anyway, be cautious when dealing with the Truth Company. By the way, how did you come into contact with the Truth Company?”

Li Cunxu informed Li Shiji about discovering the Truth Company’s base in the Butterfly Devouring Forest.

“The Truth Company has grand ambitions!”

“Grandfather, how much do you know about the Truth Company?”

Li Shiji said, “A group of research-loving lunatics, with Venerable King-level strong persons. That’s all I know.”

“Since there’s nothing else, I won’t talk further, be careful with everything.”

After speaking, the magic lotus in the eyes of the Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Dog disappeared.

Li Cunxu took Xiaoruan away. On Fertile Island, without Xiaoruan to clear out the noisy eels below the King level, only Li Shiji could fill in, making him busy, staying up twenty-four hours a day, immediately slicing any noisy eel approaching Fertile Island with a sliver of spiritual power.

The Destiny Spider openly eavesdropped and observed in the Truth Company’s base for a whole day, allowing the little white spider to figure out what the Truth Company was doing.

The little white spider said, “They are researching how to create a Butterfly Emperor of the Myriad God-devouring Butterflies.”

In his past life, Li Cunxu had never heard of a Butterfly Emperor of the Myriad God-devouring Butterflies. No need to think, they surely failed.

However, this Truth Company is quite something. The Myriad God-devouring Butterflies are disaster beasts capable of triggering extinction crises, yet they want to create a Disaster Beast Emperor. Do they intend to cause mass extinction?

The little white spider said, “I observed their method of creating a Butterfly Emperor and found it somewhat feasible. They have set up a grand array gathering life force, concentrating the life force of multiple butterfly eggs into one.”

Li Cunxu confidently said, “At most, they might make that butterfly egg hatch a Myriad God-devouring Butterfly stronger than the average. But achieving a Butterfly Emperor is forever impossible.”

To give birth to a Butterfly King or Butterfly Emperor among the Myriad God-devouring Butterflies, the key lies in the extinction tribulation aura, not the strength of life force. No matter how strong, even if an emperor-level Myriad God-devouring Butterfly injected its life force into a butterfly egg, it wouldn’t hatch a Butterfly King.

The potential of disaster beasts can actually be judged by the quantity of extinction tribulation aura.

The original Triple Demon Dragons bore three extinction tribulation auras, an unsolvable problem, and none among the Dragon Race’s deities could handle it, having to rely on a Merit Golden Lotus to forcibly cleanse its extinction tribulation aura.

If the original Triple Demon Dragons had one more extinction tribulation aura, the Merit Golden Lotus might have been ineffective against it.

How to acquire extinction tribulation aura? By killing another disaster beast, then capturing its extinction tribulation aura.

Therefore, the Truth Company wanting to create a Butterfly Emperor can only achieve it by leading the Myriad God-devouring Butterflies to kill another disaster beast and having it absorb the extinction tribulation aura.

Killing one disaster beast isn’t enough. One extinction tribulation aura can at most transform the Myriad God-devouring Butterflies into a Butterfly King.

To transform into a Butterfly Emperor, more formidable than a Butterfly King, it needs to kill two disaster beasts, absorbing two extinction tribulation auras.

Li Cunxu said, “Little white spider, continue to monitor the base and clarify who is the strongest inside.”

Li Cunxu wanted to take down this base.

He held an irreconcilable enmity with the Truth Company.

The Truth Company kidnapped three-year-old Li Anle, used her for experiments, and eroded her with the power of four Evil Gods.

Mom went to search for sister, almost got killed, feigning death to escape.

Dad retrieved sister, but also nearly got killed, feigning death to escape.

If the power of the Evil Gods had eroded Li Anle and she hadn’t survived, she would have been dead.

If they hadn’t feigned death, both parents would be gone too.

This Truth Company almost killed his whole family, wiping them out, a grudge Li Cunxu must avenge.

Even without this grudge, there were reasons enough to take down this base.

Researching disaster beasts, and a Butterfly Emperor, what, do they want to destroy the world?

After seven days and nights of surveillance, the little white spider confirmed the strength of the strongest person inside the base.

The strongest person, named ’Zhen Xia’, was a King Beastmaster specializing in insect-type pet beasts. He had two King-level pet beasts, the strongest at King Level 5, and the other at King Level 3.

Li Cunxu furrowed his brows for a long time, sighing, “I can’t beat them. Wait until next year when I break through to the King level, then come back to take down this base.”

The little white spider said, “Master, don’t give up! I have a way to take down this base, with some luck, maybe even eliminate that King.”

“Tell me about it?”

The little white spider whispered its plan into Li Cunxu’s ear, and Li Cuncun gave it high approval.

“Your plan is simple and effective, but wait, there’s one more thing left to do.”

Li Cunxu sent Jiang Lingyun and the Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Dog outside the Butterfly Devouring Forest, then started the task he had left undone.

Infiltrating the base.

Stealing a butterfly egg.

Li Cunxu had taken a fancy to the butterfly egg that had accumulated the life force of thousands of butterfly eggs.

The purpose of Li Cunxu’s trip was to take away a butterfly egg. Originally, any butterfly egg would do, as the differences between them were negligible.

But now, having heard there was a butterfly egg imbued with so much life force inside the base, the Myriad God-devouring Butterfly hatched from this egg would surely be extraordinary.

This made it impossible for Li Cunxu to just casually choose any egg.

Guided by the little white spider, the infiltration process into the base was exceptionally smooth, as if returning to his own home, simple and pleasant.
