Feng Jun, upon landing, immediately noticed the convoy, and it was too late for regret.

So, he directly put the orb into his Storage Bag because the process went smoothly, confirming there were no living creatures inside.

As for the scraps that fell to the ground, there was nothing he could do. Yi Jue had been the one to send out Luo Pa; she slightly restrained it and handed it over to him—given his cultivation level, he couldn’t possibly drive Luo Pa.

Upon reaching the Earth Plane, the Spiritual Energy on Luo Pa dissipated completely. If he hadn’t taken the orb quickly, the scene would have been chaotic once the orb’s shell thawed and scattered across the ground.

The fallen scraps were limited, and sensing guns in the convoy, Feng Jun immediately blinked back to Luohua.

Anyway, he could be sure that the living creatures he brought were dead, so leaving some scraps wouldn’t impact the overall situation.

Back in Luohua, he checked the energy points in the Five Rings. This time... approximately four thousand Ling were consumed.

This consumed more Spiritual Energy than when he tricked a Nascent Soul True Immortal, but it was still within his tolerable range.

After solving the energy point issue, he needed to address other problems, so he contacted the Guardian again, "Senior..."

"I’ve never seen anyone more troublesome than you," the Guardian’s Divine Sense descended before Feng Jun could express his intentions, "You killed so many creatures from other dimensions at once. Are you trying to weaken the protective force of the dimension?"

This clear dissatisfaction from the Big Boss was something Feng Jun had never encountered before. He paused for a moment and asked, "I didn’t mean that, I never even thought about it... The dimensional protective force can’t be that fragile, can it?"

"Of course, it’s not that fragile," the Guardian replied without hesitation, but the following words revealed some resentment, "But one day, if you trick three to five hundred Emergence Stage beings, the dimension might not be so stable."

"Three to five hundred... Emergence Stage?" Feng Jun shook his head with a mix of amusement and seriousness, "You really have high regard for me."

"It won’t happen?" The Guardian seemed unsure whether it was teasing, "With your knack for causing trouble and your cultivation speed, that day might not be far off."

"It won’t be like that," Feng Jun shook his head, answering earnestly, "I think it’s quite distant from me, plus... I have help."

"I know you have help, that Eight-sided Sky Net is of a lower grade but still has its roots," the Guardian showed obvious attention to him, even mentioning the name of the milky white Luo Pa.

Yet it still expressed dissatisfaction, "I must remind you, Weimian’s Force also has a carrying limit; don’t get used to this."

"I understand," Feng Jun nodded, "I just feel that these little ants shouldn’t pose a significant challenge to Weimian’s Force."

Upon hearing this, the Guardian snorted indifferently without saying anything, but the meaning was clear.

Feng Jun didn’t want it to say anything unpleasant, so he promptly added, "The main reason I captured so many Insect Race members is to have you analyze their lineage, to see which Insect Race species have connections with Earth."

The Guardian was indeed the first to discover Feng Jun’s return to Earth, its sensing ability far surpassing the norm, even capable of detecting the other side of Earth, making it rightfully the foremost in the Earth Realm.

Upon hearing Feng Jun’s intention of investigating the cause and effect of the Insect Race, the Guardian transported him to the courtyard, showing evident interest, "Then take out those insects for me to examine."

Feng Jun released the large orb, and the space where the Guardian resided was fascinating; although not large, a one-kilometer wide orb didn’t seem so big inside it.

The orb was still frozen, but during the fall to Earth, it shattered slightly—ultimately, it was simply too heavy.

The Guardian did something unknown, and the frozen orb began to collapse, dropping a large number of insects with a clatter.

However, these insects... still didn’t occupy much space.

A sweep of the Guardian’s Divine Sense quickly grasped the situation, "Most belong to the ice element... ordinary types are scarce."

This was the plain truth; the Eighth Mining Star, in the star system, was quite far from the star. Although the Insect Race was highly resilient, many insects truly couldn’t withstand the cold.

For example, the Flying Centipede species totaled only ten or so within the orb and were all hiding inside the barracks—they feared the cold.

Giant Dragonflies... there was only one Golden Core Stage, not a single Emergence Stage one, because they too feared the cold.

Properly speaking, similar to the thin-waisted wasp species, there were two or three hundred in the barracks—they feared the cold, but their eggs were immune to it. If successful in injecting the eggs into a human body, this trip would be worthwhile.

Feng Jun also noticed this issue but lacked the ability to summarize, so he could only respond with frustration, "Given such an environment, at most I’ll catch some others later."

"Spare me your excuses," the Guardian responded swiftly, "No need for excuses, these are enough. If you catch any more from the Emergence Stage, the impact on the realm will be far greater than now."

Feng Jun raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, "Is it really enough?"

"It’s enough," the Guardian affirmed, "Actually, that mantis was enough for me to solve the puzzle, these are merely for verification."

"Then let’s discuss the next matter," Feng Jun initially thought it might be difficult to broach this subject, but since he had been drawn into the small courtyard, it seemed feasible to talk about it, "I’ve gone through a lot of trouble to collect these insect samples... It wasn’t easy."

He paused, realizing the other party had no intention of responding, so he continued, "I took the risk of creating more karma... As you know, sir, on the other side, it’s all about Incense Fire Ascension, changes in karma are easily traced."

He didn’t mention that karma from battlefield slaughter wasn’t very heavy; firstly, it was merely Yi Jue’s opinion, and secondly... he wanted to test the Guardian’s understanding—Do you truly grasp this?

He had never sensed any malice from the Guardian, so trust was not an issue, but sometimes the Guardian spoke with such arrogance that he couldn’t help but question it.

But the Guardian had been alive for a long time, had faced much skepticism back then, so such situations were really trivial.

It couldn’t determine whether Feng Jun was testing it, but it had been tested many times before, and it didn’t think this was a big deal.

The Guardian slightly sensed Feng Jun’s state, and formed its judgment in its heart, so it straightforwardly said, "You have some karma, but it’s not very heavy... Would you like me to eliminate it for you?"

"I know I have karma," Feng Jun felt a bit troubled upon hearing this, "I just want to rescue the humans over there, which you might not fully understand, but there are really too many insects over there, can you comprehend this, sir?"

"I understand," the Guardian replied immediately, "Just like creatures protect their kind, in our era... What’s such a trivial matter?"

"I’m planning to save some more people," Feng Jun declared without hesitation, "I’ve accumulated quite a lot of karma, is the consequence heavy?"

Although the Guardian might have seemed a bit greedy at times, right now, it unhesitatingly sneered, "Outside karma dares interfere with the karma of my realm? Ha... Can’t you just live well?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Jun couldn’t help but secretly praise: The Big Boss truly lives up to their name, so domineering!

Originally, he had intended to ask the Big Boss to check if his karma needed elimination, but now... he’d rather not.

If he truly wanted to speak, it would be simple, but now thinking about it, using a favor like this can’t be squandered.

He truly considered it a waste—wars in the Insect World surely involve karma and causality, but if karma is accumulated over there—Ren Tu True Sage should be able to handle it, right?

Upon realizing this, he raised his hand and placed the insect samples back into the Storage Bag, "Since that’s the case, do you have anything else to instruct, sir?"

After a moment of silence, the Guardian finally responded, "If you are intent on rescuing those humans from another world, and cause more disturbance, you’d best venture into the oceans, it would be harder to expose there."

Clearly, while it verbally showed discontent with Feng Jun’s wanton use of Weimian’s Force, it wasn’t particularly opposed to his actions deep down, and even offered advice, which can be considered considerate.

Feng Jun thought it over and raised his hand in gesture, "Thank you for the advice, sir, but I feel the underwater isn’t safe enough, so I’ll take them to Outer Space."

The next moment, he arrived at the space location once reached by the warship, followed by a whirlwind of Blink movements, propelling himself in a direction away from Earth. At last, with his Golden Core Cultivation, he could move in space without protection.

After blinking for two days, traveling approximately two hundred thousand miles, he felt his internal spiritual energy was becoming unsustainable, and so he returned to Luohua.

He rested in Luohua for almost ten days, until his spiritual energy was fully replenished, and Beauty Lin had been seeking an audience multiple times outside the mountain gate.

Yet Feng Jun did not immediately meet her; upon hearing she wanted to know what happened in the Taklimakan, he instructed Liang Siyu to inform her—"Others have already guessed it’s a Tribulation Transcending, can’t you guess too?"

He didn’t believe they couldn’t guess this point; at present, their continuous inquiries were no more than an attempt to learn some details, but unfortunately, these details weren’t really suitable for them to inquire about.

Following this, he went to Kunhao’s Linhai Square Market to kill some time—just about an hour or so, then returned to the Insect World.

He originally aimed to kill time to lessen Yi Jue’s suspicions; however, unexpectedly, upon seeing him, she inquired, "Why so slow this time, did you recharge the spiritual energy needed for teleportation?"

"My situation... is a bit complicated," Feng Jun casually replied, then handed over Luo Pa and the Storage Bag to Yi Jue, "Mission accomplished, handled perfectly."

Yi Jue received both items, stored Luo Pa first, then poured the insect corpses from the Storage Bag into her own Storage Bag, and returned the Storage Bag to Feng Jun, "Count it, I left half for you."
