The light on his fingertips, the moment it touched the Illusory Silkworm, caused the spiritual essence of heaven and earth to surge instantly, rapidly integrating into the Illusory Silkworm.

The Illusory Silkworm reacted immediately, swelling up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The originally withered image changed at once, transitioning to a crystal-clear state, as if undergoing a metamorphosis, reborn anew.

As time went on, the entire plant seemed to become transparent, with a great deal of vitality slowly permeating throughout.

New buds appeared one by one as the vitality overflowed.

At this moment, the growth rate was extraordinarily unusual, with buds swiftly becoming part of the plant, their skin beginning to age, and then new buds emerging, repeating a cycle of growth—pure Great Dao power flowing in a continuous stream.

Just as the essence of the Great Dao finally emerged and there was still silence all around, the clouds above Feng Yin’s tent began to show slight, almost imperceptible changes, undulating ever so little.

This subtle movement was so minute that even the Cat Emperor and Peng Wanli, who were using their divine senses to monitor the surroundings, failed to notice it.

In other words, the fluctuation had already detected and evaded the divine senses of the two.

It was precisely through that tiny gap, slipping down silently, that it penetrated Feng Yin’s tent undetected.

In a delicate moment unnoticed by Feng Yin, an invisible thread had already connected to the Illusory Silkworm.

By then, Feng Yin was still completely unaware, still fully focused on controlling the Spirit Gathering Illusory Silkworm.

His eyes were fixed on the Illusory Silkworm without blinking.

Watching the Illusory Silkworm sprout new buds at a consistent rate, then turn into old trunks, and then sprout fresh buds again, the whole process was as if programmed, with absolutely no fluctuations or waves.

However… After a certain period of time, Feng Yin finally noticed something was amiss.

The rapid growth of the Illusory Silkworm had stopped!

His fingers did not cease their infusion, yet his mind was tumultuous, rising and falling like tidal waves.

Something’s not right, definitely not right!

Why has it stopped?

Could the Illusory Silkworm have reached its limit?

But that’s not right either, it hasn’t bloomed yet!

Then why isn’t it continuing to grow?

No, this isn’t just slightly off, but… extremely wrong!

The only explanation is… the energy has been intercepted?

Feng Yin’s heart suddenly stirred, as he tried to collect the Illusory Silkworm into the Space Ring.

However, the moment he thought to collect it, just like when he tried to gather the Cloud-Gathering Pine in the afternoon, it did not respond.

This meant… the Illusory Silkworm had truly arrived!

Feng Yin was surprised. This Illusory Silkworm was indeed formidable, having managed to arrive undetected by the psychic net laid by the combined efforts of the Cat Emperor and Peng Wanli.

Feng Yin’s thoughts raced, his right hand continuing to infuse Spirit Gathering energy, while his left-hand fingertip swiftly circled the Illusory Silkworm. Without surprise, he felt the presence of a fine silk thread.

Illusory Silkworm thread!

It was attached to the Illusory Silkworm, greedily devouring, almost ravenous, sucking in the energy from Feng Yin’s Spiritual Transformation Technique infusion point.

In an instant, Feng Yin pinched the Illusory Silkworm thread, employing an extremely fluid movement with his wrist, creating a loop in an attempt to pull back with force.

There was a light scraping sound, and a powerfully strong force came through. The Illusory Silkworm thread slipped out of his grip almost without any resistance.

Feng Yin grunted, his fingers, wrist bleeding profusely, especially the wrist, which was slashed almost in half, hanging limply.

Looking at his wrist, even the bone had been cut through.

But this fluctuation was much larger than before, and both the Cat Emperor and Peng Wanli, who had been vigilant about their surroundings, immediately became aware, expanding their divine senses in an attempt to seal it off.

Yet the Illusory Silkworm thread broke through their divine seal in a manner so powerful it was unprecedented, in the first instant.

Like a hot knife through butter!

A bloodstained thread, shining with a bright red sheen, disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye, escaping swiftly.
