Chapter 41: The Gold Eater

A few days later, Li Youran's figure appeared in the sky above Xiaohuan Island.

Li Youran first used his divine sense to search around Xiaohuan Island, but there was no other monk. Only then did he feel relieved to urge the magic weapon, entered the island from the dock, and flew towards the peak where his cave was located.

It was still far from the two high and low peaks, but Li Youran's divine sense had scanned the two peaks one step in advance, and the two caves, true and false, were safe and sound, and the three magic circles outside had not changed at all. There was indeed nothing unusual in and around the mountain, and he flew into the big array.

Li Youran entered the cave without hesitation, and strode towards the secret rooms where the strange insects were fed. But when Li Youran arrived in front of the secret room, he was taken aback by the slight opening of his mouth!

The secret room for feeding strange insects is dozens of stone rooms of different sizes that Li Youran opened up on a bluestone wall. In order to prevent them from escaping from these secret rooms, Han Li also set up some small prohibitions between the various stone chambers, so that they could not break through the walls. In Li Youran's opinion, no matter how high the ranking of these strange insects is, most of them are young now, and these prohibitions are enough to trap them even if they are ordinary. But the secret rooms in front of them, not only are the prohibitions set up gone, but all the stone doors are honeycomb-like and full of holes, and they have been destroyed.

Li Youran was a little shocked in his heart, and with a thought in his heart, he strode forward and pushed the nearest stone door open. He slowly closed his eyes, and his divine sense instantly swept towards the rest of the secret room. The same emptiness, and even the two strange insect secret rooms ranked within the top 100 of the strange insect list were in the same situation, which made Li Youran a little heartbroken, and he secretly cursed in his heart, "What's the situation." ”。

Suddenly, his expression moved, and he opened his eyes, as if he had thought of something.

With a flash of joy in his eyes, he left the house and walked to another secret room. The same empty room, but after Li Youran entered, he bent down without hesitation and picked up something from the bluestone ground. Place it in the palm of your hand and hold it in front of your eyes for a closer look. A bean-sized insect shell, shining silver, as if made of sterling silver, is extremely beautiful. Li Youran touched the insect shell with one finger and felt that the surface of the shell was extremely smooth and very hard.

Looking at these insect shells, the joy in his eyes was even greater, these things finally came, and the main reason why he came here to retreat was for the sake of these insects.

He swept through the chamber and turned his head slightly, and his gaze fell back on the stone door. Then he walked over, half-squatted in front of the broken stone door, the ruined appearance of the stone door was very peculiar, it was full of dense small holes of the same size, looking at these small holes, he shook his head with a wry smile.

He went out to the medicine garden, and under a certain thick flower tree, there was a shining silver ball, which was not the original in the cave, and the volume of the silver ball was not large, only the size of a child's head. But that kind of flickering demonic silver light is really eye-catching, this is the insect "Gold Devouring Worm" he has been waiting for for a long time.

"Gold devouring insects, swarming fierce insects, ranking twelfth on the list of strange insects. Love to eat strange insects, good at swallowing hardware and heaven and earth aura, fierce, water and fire are not immersed, good to gather in the sphere, inhabit under the spirit wood. The things of jade wood can be trapped, and the spiders and strange insects can overcome each other......"

These "gold-eating insects" are almost uneaten except for jade and wood, and it is not easy to catch. He has those two "Blood Jade Spiders", although the ranking is far lower than that of the "Gold Devouring Worm", but they can restrain each other.

He immediately loosened the opening of a leather bag around his waist, and two white lights flew out of the leather bag, lying firmly on the ground, which were the two "blood jade spiders" the size of heads.

Li Youran did not hesitate to issue the order to capture him alive.

Two rays of white liquid erupted from the mouth of the white spider and turned into two webs in diameter in mid-air, enveloping all the silver beetles. These two cobwebs are very different from ordinary cobwebs, the holes are so small that the silver beetle is covered by them, and they cannot escape through the gaps. The gold-devouring insects seemed to sense the danger, and they immediately turned into the shape of silver arrows, and shot towards the cobwebs like real crossbow arrows.

"Poof" and "poof" twice, two white cobwebs firmly wrapped the silver arrows in it, forming a web ball, and the gold-eating insects in it went crazy, and after making a piercing scream, they began to bite the spider silk one by one, and they really had the intention of breaking through the web. But the two white spiders didn't give them a chance at all, and after a few leaps, they came to the web ball, and then kept squirting out mouthfuls of spider silk from their mouths, and in a moment they were wrapped into a huge ball.

However, Li Youran also knew that this cobweb might not be able to trap these gold-devouring insects for long. hurriedly took out a jade box from his body, put the soft net into the box, and then immediately closed the lid of the box and put it into the storage bag.

Speaking of which, you should use a special spirit beast bag to hold demon beasts, otherwise ordinary spirit beasts will suffocate in the storage bag because they can't breathe.

But the strange insects on the list are very different, they are extremely strong, and they can be safe and sound in storage bags without breathing. Otherwise, the original monk of the Imperial Spirit Sect would not have carried so many larvae with some bottles and jars.

Of course, if you really want to drive away beasts and defend against enemies, it is still the most suitable special spirit beast bag. Not only is it convenient to summon spirit animals, but it is also more convenient to train.

The most important thing is that the spirit beast bag can shrink some oversized demon beasts into the bag. Storage bags can't shrink living creatures. Therefore, even if it is a strange insect demon beast, which is large, it can only use a special spirit beast bag.

Li Youran put away the jade box, for fear that he had missed something else, and searched it again with his divine sense in and near the cave. As a result, except for a dense hole found on the floor of the storeroom, there was nothing else to find, these small holes should be the traces left by the gold devouring worm burrowing into his cave from the ground, he didn't care.

He returned to the ashram, sat down and thought about it.

It's not the time yet, and it's not something that can be done in a moment. Except for those immortal cultivators such as the Heavenly Spirit Root, the other cultivators all needed enough elixir and time to break through the bottleneck.

The "Snow Spirit Water" and "Heavenly Fire Liquid" that he wanted to buy were the two spiritual objects that the monk had to take when he was married. If you don't use it, it doesn't mean that you can't get a pill, but the success rate of that pill is so low that it makes an immortal cultivator vomit blood. Although no one has officially counted it, it is said that it is much lower than the 1 percent rate. In addition to these two things, there are also some other elixirs that can be taken at the time of the knot, and the more types there are, the greater the hope of the knot. It's just that it doesn't have such a significant impact as "Snow Spirit Water" and "Heavenly Fire Liquid".

Of course, they are the same as these two spiritual creatures, and repeated use is ineffective. After all, this is not Qi refining and meditation, the different elixirs taken are all in moderation and the best, and too much may have the opposite effect. But the funny thing is that the effect of other elixirs is far inferior to "Snow Spirit Water" and "Heavenly Fire Liquid", but it is even more difficult to find and rare.

Because most of them need one or even several thousand-year-old spirit grasses as raw materials to be blended. Ordinary monks, who can have such a big hand! At most, in addition to the "Snow Spirit Water" and "Heavenly Fire Liquid", one or two more configurations are considered extravagant.

Of course, this is not a big problem for Li Youran. Except for a few rare spirit grasses that he really hadn't and hadn't heard of at all, the others had already matured in the years of cultivation in Xiaohuan Mountain, and he had used them to prepare more than a dozen elixirs to assist in the elixir, and they were safely placed in a storage bag on his body.

The most surprising thing is that these elixirs do not need to be refined by the cultivator's innate true fire, as long as they are like ordinary medicines in the mortal world, they can be easily blended. And the prescription can be easily found clearly in various classics, which made Li Youran surprised for a long time, and he is still a little puzzled, because it is too unreasonable.

As soon as these auxiliary elixirs are consumed, the rate of attainment will be much higher than that of other monks. Judging from the information checked, even if he is as extravagant as him, the success rate is at most one and a half percent more than that of other monks, but it is still a little stronger than when he does not take it.

In addition, the process of knotting Dan does not mean that it can be completed in ten days and half a month, according to various classics and Li Huayuan's experience in knotting, the entire process of knotting Dan will last for three to five years. The specific length depends on the person's qualifications. During this period, it is taboo to be in a state of mind with great joy and sorrow, let alone fight with others, and at the same time need to absorb a certain amount of heaven and earth aura.

Therefore, it is imperative for Li Youran to find an island with a little aura to retreat and tie up the pill, no need to think about it, his first thing is Tianxing City, and at the same time, he can't let him think too much, he believes that Cao Lu and the bearded man will not let him go easily, he really thinks that the "Snow Spirit Water" and "Heavenly Fire Liquid" are so easy to collect.

Li Youran didn't dare to stay in the cave mansion for long, and immediately went out of the real and false cave mansion to collect the three sets of formation equipment and some elixir essentials, and then rushed to the sky.

On the second day after Li Youran left Xiaohuan Island, several Changhong flew from the direction of Kuixing Island, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in the air of Xiaohuan Island.

After the dazzling brilliance faded, a treacherous old man and a middle-aged man with a gray aura appeared in mid-air, followed by Cao Lu and the bearded man.
