Volume 6 Dance of Demons, One Thousand Two Hundred and Fourty-One
"If that's the case, it's not impossible for the subordinates to lend you the knowledge of insects, but I will take care of me during the whole process." Liu Ming saw that the patriarch Qingling was willing to swear by the demons, and most of the worries in his heart disappeared, and he considered it. After a moment, he spoke.
"It's natural, fellow Daoist, please come with me." Seeing Liu Ming agreeing, the patriarch Qingling was overjoyed. After making another oath in front of him, he turned and walked towards the back of the hall.
Liu Ming raised his brows and followed suit.
The two quickly walked into a somewhat winding corridor. The ground and surroundings were repaired quite flat, and it seemed to lead to the depths of the underground.
Along the way, Liu Ming found several fork roads. After sweeping it away, it seemed that each fork road was connected to several secret rooms, which seemed to be used to raise various spirit insects. From time to time, a few people in green robes could be seen. The monks of the Qingling family came in and out.
Speaking of which, this tribe is really sparsely populated, and Liu Ming didn't find many Qingling people on the way from the entrance of the cave.
The two walked along the long corridor for about a quarter of an hour and came to a stone room at the end.
On the door of the stone room is an image of a strange insect on the left and right. The one on the left looks like an unusually ferocious golden beetle, while on the door on the right is a black silkworm, which looks unremarkable. The only thing that is special is that there is a white pattern on the top of the black silkworm's head that looks like a human skull.
Patriarch, the silkworm on the right hand side, could it be..." Liu Ming's heart moved, and he asked.
"Fellow Daoist Liu really has a sharp mind. Yes, this black silkworm is the holy worm skeleton silkworm of our family. As for the other golden beetle, it is another holy insect of our family, but you don't need to know about it." Patriarch Qingling said lightly.
Liu Ming was not interested in another holy insect. With a glance, he carefully looked at the skeleton silkworm.
Patriarch Qingling said something in his mouth. He waved his hand and shot out a black light, which sank into the stone gate.
The stone door made a light sound, and a faint black light appeared on the surface. After a while, it dissipated, and the stone door slowly opened inward.
Patriarch Qing Ling stepped in, Liu Ming's eyes flashed, and he quickly followed.
The stone room is quite wide, about twenty or thirty feet in size, but the light is a little dim. Only the top is inlaid with a few stones that emit a faint blue light.
However, with the eyesight of Patriarch Qingling and Liu Ming, they could see clearly even without the slightest light source.
Liu Ming glanced around, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
From the outside, the stone room is quite strictly guarded, but the inside is unexpectedly simple. The walls around it are not even polished, and uneven stones can be seen from time to time. In addition, there are many strange plants planted around.
The air in the stone chamber. It exudes a faint fragrance, which smells very comfortable.
"This is the insect breeding room of our Qingling family. These plants can emit the scent that insect monsters like." The Qingling patriarch explained.
Liu Ming glanced around and nodded.
There is a flat stone platform on the ground in the center of the stone room. Patriarch Qing Ling walked to the stone platform, muttered words in his mouth, and waved a magic formula.
The stone platform made a rumbling sound. It split open in the middle, revealing a dark hole.
After a moment. A translucent square box rose from below.
The Qing Ling patriarch waved a magic trick, and an entrance was opened above the box.
"This thing is an insect breeding box. Fellow Daoist Liu, this old man is about to start." Patriarch Qing Ling moved his hand, and a cloud of green light lifted his sapiens and flew into the square box.
Seeing this, Liu Ming also waved his hand, and a volume of faint black energy sent the cognac worm on his body into the box, and the entrance of the box closed.
The Qingling patriarch's face became solemn, and he waved his hands again and again, and a magic trick shot out, some submerged in the box, some luminous bluestones that flew to the top of the stone room, and some directly shot into the ground.
With the movements of the Qingling patriarch, a faint cyan light began to appear in the entire stone room, and a light cyan mist gradually emerged from the box where the two identifiable insects were located.
After a while of tumbling, mysterious cyan demon spirits slowly appeared on the surface of the box, which soon covered the entire surface of the box.
The cyan mist inside the box became thicker and thicker. Under the shroud of the mist, the two Insects showed signs of irritability. The two Insects, who had been at peace with each other, seemed to be aware of each other's existence.
"Squeak..." After a few calls to each other, the two Insects began to wriggle and slowly approached.
When Liu Ming saw this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Whether it is an insect monster or a beast monster, the most difficult problem is mating and reproduction.
Each type of monster has its own breeding period. The secret technique performed by the Qingling patriarch actually stimulates the mating of the savage insects, and there are no side effects, which is really extraordinary.
...
After a day and a night, the door of the stone room slowly opened, and Liu Ming and the Qing Rin patriarch walked out side by side.
Patriarch Qing Ling had a faint look of excitement on his face. In his hand, he held a transparent cylindrical jar with two finger-sized, milky white insect eggs in it.
Liu Ming didn't seem to be in such a good mood, he frowned slightly, the male transcendental worm was quietly lying on his palm at the moment, looking a little weak.
With a flip of his hand, he took out a small green bottle, poured out a black elixir like a bean, and fed it to the worms to eat.
After taking an elixir, the aura on the worm's body immediately recovered a little, moved his body, and let out a squeak, as if he liked this elixir quite a bit.
"This is a feeding pill handed down from ancient times. It is suitable for the vast majority of spiritual insects. Unfortunately, the cost of refining is too high, and there are not many in my family. Knowing the worms should be able to make up for the loss of vitality." Chief Qing Ling explained.
Liu Ming nodded, moved his hand, and put away the knowledge insect.
"Patriarch Gu, now the two worm eggs are in your hands, I don't know if..." He glanced at the Qingling family and said lightly.
"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. I, the Qingling clan, will do what they say. I have already ordered someone to fetch the skeleton silkworm. They should be waiting in the hall now." Qingling clan leader put away the transparent jar in his hand and said.
"That's good." Liu Ming nodded lightly.
The two quickly came to the hall. In the hall, Lan Si and the elder Gu from yesterday were already here, and Elder Gu was holding a palm-sized dark green stone box in his hand.
"Patriarch." Elder Gu looked at Patriarch Qingling.
Patriarch Qingling nodded, Elder Gu understood, and handed the stone box in his hand to Liu Ming, and said, "Fellow Daoist Liu, inside is the skeleton silkworm you want."
"Thank you." Liu Ming's face showed a hint of joy, took the stone box, and opened the lid. Inside was a black silkworm that was seven or eight inches long and the thickness of a finger. There was a white skull pattern on its head. It was the same as the one at the door of the previous insect breeding room. It was the skull silkworm.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, I don't know what you want this skeleton silkworm to use, but this silkworm is a holy worm of our clan, please use it properly." Elder Gu stared at Liu Ming and solemnly instructed.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist for reminding me." Liu Ming glanced at Elder Gu in surprise. said lightly.
He closed the stone box and carefully put it away.
The skeleton silkworm can be regarded as a holy insect by the Qingling family, and it must have its own unique ability, but he has no intention to explore it. He wanted this skeleton silkworm just to refine soul-sucking Gu.
"Patriarch Gu, since the transaction has been completed, I won't bother you any more. This is the time to leave. Fellow Daoist Lan's transaction should also be completed, right?" Liu Ming bowed to the patriarch Qingling, and then said to Lan Si who was beside him. .
At this moment, he can't wait to return to Los Angeles. The soul-sucking Gu has been refined.
Lan Si nodded, her twelve Swift Beetles had already been selected. If it wasn't for waiting for Liu Ming, she would have left yesterday.
The two gave a salute to Patriarch Qing Ling, turned around and walked outside.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, please stay." Elder Gu suddenly said.
Liu Ming stopped when he heard the words, turned around and looked over.
"That's it, I don't know if the Scarlet Flame Pill on my fellow Daoist can be sold to me. I am willing to give 20 million spirit stones." Elder Gu looked at Liu Ming expectantly and said.
There was not much of his lifespan left, but he couldn't break through the Celestial Phenomenon Realm for a long time. Chi Yandan was too important to him, and he couldn't let it go no matter what.
"Elder Gu, do you think Chiyandan is something that can be measured by spirit stones? Besides, there is no shortage of spirit stones." Liu Ming said with a half-smile.
What he said was the truth. He had already earned a lot of spirit stones in cooperation with the Bluewood Clan in alchemy over the years, with a mere tens of millions.
Although Chi Yan Dan can only be used once per person, it is better to keep it instead of selling it, and use it for those around him when they break through the Celestial Phenomenon Realm in the future.
Elder Gu's expression suffocated. Yesterday, he used these words to block Liu Ming's mouth. At this moment, he opened his mouth and was suddenly speechless.
"Since Daoyou Liu doesn't look down on the mere spirit stones, I don't know how my clan would exchange some precious strange insects with you. Since Daoyou has raised a recognition insect, he should be more interested in other spiritual insects." Patriarch Qing Ling said suddenly.
Liu Ming heard the words and fell silent.
Elder Gu glanced at Patriarch Qing Ling gratefully, waved his hand and took out a white bone jade slip and handed it to Liu Ming.
"Here is the list of spirit insects that this clan uses to exchange with foreign clans. Each spirit insect has a corresponding annotation behind it, which records the abilities of these spirit insects. Fellow Daoist Liu, please take a look at it first." Elder Gu squeezed out his face. A smile.
A look of interest appeared on Liu Ming's face, he reached out to take the jade slip, and his divine sense penetrated into it.
Illusory worms, ranked 21st on the Qingning worm list, are comparable in strength to cultivators in the crystal formation stage when they are adults.
Cold crystal ants, ranked twenty-fifth on the green worm list, are good at flying, use large-scale combat spirit worms, and spray special cold air from their mouths, which can freeze everything.
Mountain-devouring earthworms, ranked 30th on the green worm list, earth-type spirit worms, are extremely sensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and are good at treasure hunting.
...
One by one strange spirit insects suddenly appeared in front of Liu Ming's eyes, all of which he had never heard of before, which opened his eyes.
After a while, his divine sense still withdrew from the jade slip and played with the jade slip twice in his hand.
Seeing Liu Ming's expression like this, Elder Gu felt a little uneasy in his heart.
In his heart, he secretly guessed that Liu Ming had no interest in these spirit insects on the jade slip. (To be continued...)I1292
