[Taibai Slashing Jiao Sword] is a medium-grade magic weapon, and Zhou Chun is a mid-stage cultivation of Jindan.

But such a combination is still very difficult when cutting insect cocoons, and it cannot be achieved overnight.

This shows the tenacity of the cocoon!

Fortunately, after some hard work, Zhou Chun still managed to cut a small incision, and his divine sense saw the situation inside clearly through the incision.

Surprisingly, there were not six-winged ice silkworms in it as he thought, but some white insect eggs the size of mung beans, a total of nine.

This discovery made Zhou Chun disappointed and relieved.

He quickly put away all the protective measures, and then took out the nine eggs to check.

After some inspection, Zhou Chun determined that the nine eggs were all live eggs and had the possibility of hatching.

But it's just the possibility of hatching!

Since they hid in the cocoons for an unknown amount of time and did not hatch, it can be seen that it is not easy for them to hatch.

As far as Zhou Chun knows, some special species of strange insects on the "Heaven and Earth Strange Insect List" need to be counted in hundreds of years just for the incubation time, and they also have extremely high requirements for the incubation environment.

If these eggs in front of him were really produced by the six-winged ice silkworm, then if he wanted to hatch these eggs, he was afraid that it would be a very test of luck.

Even so, these eggs represent a chance.

If they were really the eggs of the six-winged ice silkworm, then as long as they hatched and cultivated, Zhou Chun would have a kind of strange insect whose combat power could at least rank in the top forty of the "Heaven and Earth Strange Insect List".

This is undoubtedly a good supplement for him, who gradually looks down on the strength of [Heavenly Frost Cold Bee].

Moreover, there is another point that the six-winged ice silkworms cannot be compared to the [Heavenly Frost Cold Bee], that is, the value of the silk they spit out.

With the miraculous properties displayed by the cocoon silk on this insect cocoon, if you use it to refine the magic clothes, it is very likely to refine the legendary "invisibility clothing".

And this "invisibility cloak" not only has the effect of stealth shielding divine consciousness, but also has a powerful defensive ability at the magic weapon level!

Such treasures, I am afraid that even real people in the infancy stage will also be tempted to compete for them.

To sum up, after Zhou Chun determined that the nine eggs were all live eggs, he quickly recognized them.

After the ceremony of confirming the Lord was successfully completed, Zhou Chun put the eggs back into the cocoon and glued the incision shut.

After unlocking the secret of the insect cocoon in this way, the Bingyi Kingdom had nothing to stay in for Zhou Chun.

After collecting and buying some things in Fang City, he quickly left Fang City with Wu Yuzhu and officially embarked on his return journey.

On the way back, it was still the Goldenfinch Tiger as a substitute spirit animal.

Zhou Chunpan sat on the back of the tiger, and while letting the golden-winged tiger fly in the direction he pointed out, he also took stock of the harvest of this trip to the Bingyi Country.

On this trip to Bingyi Country, Zhou Chun undoubtedly gained a lot.

First of all, the secret technique of "Nine Changes of the Holy Spirit: Moon Toad Chapter" was successfully cultivated to Xiaocheng, and the use and power of the spirit treasure of [Moon Toad Orb] were thoroughly discovered.

The second is to meet Yan Cangzhen by chance and help him get out of trouble and get a major gain.

A top-grade magic weapon, plus three chances to refine treasures, and a [Fire Yuan Immortal Zhi] elixir that is more than five thousand years old and a chance to enter the Flame Spirit Spring to practice.

These benefits add up to not a small amount, and it is definitely an opportunity that many Jindan stage monks will never encounter in their lifetime!

Compared with these two benefits, whether it is the insect eggs of the suspected six-winged ice silkworm, or the demon pill of the ice crystal demon wolf and the [Mochizuki Ice Toad], it is nothing.

"It's a pity that that Yan Cang Zhenren walked too fast at that time, otherwise it would be good for him to cash in that high-grade magic weapon first!"

Thinking back to Zhou Chun, who had gained from this trip, he couldn't help but sigh with some regret.

Although he has the spirit treasure of [Moon Toad Orb], this thing can basically only be used as the last hole card, and he dare not use it unless he has to.

However, there are not so many taboos for high-grade magic weapons, with his cultivation in the middle stage of Jindan, plus several fourth-order spirit pets, he is completely qualified to have such treasures.

In this way, when encountering some late-stage Jindan level enemies, he may be able to achieve victory without the [Moon Toad Orb], reducing the possibility of the Lingbao being exposed and being discovered.

Fortunately, after ten years, he will be able to go to Huoluo Country to find Yan Cang Zhenren to fulfill his promise, and this little regret in Zhou Chun's heart does not have to be too entangled.

Because he was not in a hurry in time, when he returned, Zhou Chun also stopped and stopped, and took the opportunity to travel to various countries along the way to see if he could collect some alchemy materials needed.

In such a travel-like hurry, when Zhou Chun returned to Yasukuni, it was already three years after leaving Bingyi Country!

It is worth mentioning that after several years of practice, Wu Yuzhu's "Ten Thousand Poisons True Scripture" has also been successfully transferred, and the cultivation of poison skills has also entered the late stage of qi training.

During this period, the fire poison in her body broke out again, and Zhou Chun used the method used by her father Wu Yishan before to help her suppress the fire poison in her body with several ice attribute spiritual objects.

According to Zhou Chun's estimate, before the next fire poison outbreak, she should be able to try to build a foundation.

If you can successfully build the foundation, not to mention relying entirely on your own cultivation to suppress the fire poison outbreak, at least you can greatly extend the time of the fire poison outbreak.

And after arriving at the Zhou family, Zhou Yuanlian, who has superb poisonous skills, will take care of it, even if the fire poison breaks out, it is estimated that Zhou Chun will not need to help.

And after arriving in Yasukuni, Zhou Chun also returned to his original appearance.

This surprised Wu Yuzhu, who had been with him for several years and had become accustomed to his disguised appearance.

"Don't be surprised, it's just a cover-up."

Zhou Chun smiled faintly, and soon returned to Tuyunling with the other party.

At this time, Zhou Chun had only been away from home for six or seven years, and there had not been much change in the family, and his apprentice Zhou Zhiying was still cultivating in the middle of foundation building, so he didn't give him another unexpected surprise.

Zhou Chun first gave Zhou Mingde a brief explanation of the harvest of going out, explained the origin of Wu Yuzhu, and then called Zhou Yuanlian to the cave mansion and introduced Wu Yuzhu to her, so that the two could get closer in the future.

Maybe it's because of the common practice of a kind of exercise, or maybe it is because after listening to Zhou Chun talk about Wu Yuzhu's tragic experience, a certain kind of recognition rose in her heart, and Zhou Yuanlian, who has always been unapologetic to others, has a very good attitude towards this little sister, and easily agreed to take care of each other.

This made Zhou Chun feel even more that it was the right thing to hand over people to her.

After settling Wu Yuzhu in this way, Zhou Chun went to the wilderness.

He first put the [Heavenly Frost Cold Bee] back into the nest, and then went to the place where Zhou Daoquan was cultivating.

I saw that the original blood dragon branch altar was located at the mountain gate, and as soon as Zhou Chun stepped into this gloomy place, a yin wind blew in front of him, revealing Zhou Daoquan's figure.

This is the art of ghost escape, and it is an almost innate ability of ghost cultivation.

Within the scope of the Yin and Evil Lands, ghost cultivators can easily turn into the wind and escape, which is more subtle and efficient than the wind escape technique.

This is because the body of the ghost cultivator has no substance, and in a sense, it is somewhat similar to the primordial infant of the immortal cultivator.

"The junior has just arrived here, and you have sensed it, uncle, it seems that your mastery of the way of ghost cultivation is getting deeper and deeper!"

Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Daoquan who suddenly appeared, and couldn't help but smile and compliment.

Zhou Daoquan heard what he said, and couldn't help but smile and said: "This ghost cultivation path does have its own uniqueness, but the old man underestimated this way before!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Zhengchun, didn't you say that you were going to travel far away?" How did you come back so soon. ”

"The juniors went smoothly on this trip, so they came back much sooner than expected."

Zhou Chun replied to Zhou Daoquan's words and said softly: "And this time, the juniors came over, and they also wanted to ask your uncle for something!" ”

As he spoke, he told him about using the [Wraith Soul Contract] to trade with Yan Cang Zhenren.

To be honest, Zhou Chun was still wary and worried about the Netherworld Will adding a new condition to the deed.

It's just that the situation was complicated at that time, and he didn't have time to think too much, so he could only agree first.

Now that I look back and think about it carefully, this matter may have left some hidden dangers, so I am ready to ask Zhou Daoquan, who has already switched to cultivating the path of ghost cultivation.

"In addition to the old man's cultivation over the years, he has also carefully studied all the classics recorded in the family about ghost cultivation many times, combined with the knowledge of the ghost cultivation inheritance that you brought back, and he has also summed up some of his own views on the netherworld in the mouth of the ghost cultivator!"

"In the old man's opinion, first of all, the so-called Netherworld must exist, otherwise the Netherworld will and Netherworld ghost qi cannot appear out of thin air!"

"And the statement that the Netherworld and the real world overlap and are two sides of the same body is probably not groundless, maybe it is true!"

"However, after the fall of my generation of monks, the statement that all their souls returned to the Netherworld is probably misleading, and not everyone can enter the Netherworld!"

"And in the old man's opinion, even if the soul really enters the netherworld, it may not be so easy to be reincarnated and reborn, and most of them may become food for some special existence in the netherworld!"

"Actually, after I turn into a ghost cultivator, it is equivalent to being marked with a netherworld, and I may be introduced into the netherworld at any time and become the food of some existence, and that wisp of netherworld ghost qi is proof!"

"The old man suspects that the ghost cultivation method will appear in this world, it is the yang conspiracy of the netherworld, it is to spread this method to attract people to cultivate, and then wait for the need to harvest it!"

When Zhou Daoquan said this, he also looked at Zhou Chun with a solemn expression and said: "As for Zhengchun, you attracted the attention of the Netherworld Will because of your [Nether Soul Contract], and the content of the soul contract was modified by it, the old man is estimated to be the same as my ghost cultivators, and he was branded by the Netherworld!" ”

"But Zhengchun Ling is not a ghost cultivator after all, even if he has left an imprint in your soul through the method of soul contract, I think that the netherworld can't directly hook your soul, at most, after your body is destroyed, your soul can be introduced into the netherworld!"

I see!

After listening to Zhou Daoquan's words, Zhou Chun suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

He wondered how the Netherworld Will could bestow such benefits out of thin air!

It turns out that all the gifts have been marked with a price in the dark!

He didn't feel wrong at the time, he did make a soul deal with the devil.

When even said: "In this way, as long as the juniors protect the physical existence and don't let the soul out of the body, they shouldn't have to worry about the hidden dangers brought by the [Wraith Soul Contract]!" ”

"That's right!"

Zhou Daoquan nodded and confirmed this.

Then he looked at him with a straight face and persuaded: "But Zhengchun, you are not a ghost cultivator after all, even if this kind of ghost cultivation technique can be used, it is best not to use it in the future, so as not to have a deeper causal involvement with the netherworld and bury hidden dangers in your future path!" ”

"The juniors understand, the juniors will remember your uncle's warning, and try not to use this kind of ghost cultivation technique in the future!"

Zhou Chun nodded with a straight face, and really listened to Zhou Daoquan's words.

After Zhou Daoquan's previous explanation, he was also full of jealousy of the rumored Netherworld, and he didn't want to really go into the Netherworld and become the food ration of some existence.

Then I saw him speak again: "By the way, the younger generation went out on a trip this time, and got the eggs of a rare strange insect, but I don't know how to hatch the eggs, and I am worried that I don't have the time to study, so I want to ask my uncle to help study the hatching method of this thing." ”

After speaking, he told the process of obtaining the insect eggs and the information about the six-winged ice silkworm that he had found.

For Zhou Daoquan's professional knowledge and skills in beast control, Zhou Chun has always been trustworthy.

The spirit beast egg that was pregnant with Lei Jiao's white spirit beast was collected by the Mu family of Biyun Lake for many years and could not hatch correctly, and in the end it could only be given to Zhou Chun as a reward for his treatment of the family spirit beast.

And after Zhou Chun got this thing, he also relied on Zhou Daoquan's years of research to successfully hatch snake eggs with his guidance.

Now that Zhou Daoquan has turned into a ghost cultivator, Shou Yuan is comparable to a Yuan infant monk, and he can't leave this gloomy place, so he has more time to study the beast control technique, and his attainments in this area will only get deeper and deeper.

Therefore, it is obviously the most appropriate to hand over the eggs of the suspected six-winged ice silkworm to him to study the method of hatching.

At this time, after listening to Zhou Chun's narration, Zhou Daoquan was also interested, and immediately nodded solemnly: "The old man understands, leave this matter to the old man, and the old man will definitely go all out to do a good job in this matter." ”

But he didn't let Zhou Chun hand over all the eggs to himself, but only took four of them.

According to him, he can't leave this shady place now, and it's hard to guarantee that there will be any abnormalities when the eggs hatch here, so it's safest to act separately.

In this way, even if all the eggs hatched on his side died unexpectedly, he would not completely lose the possibility of hatching the six-winged ice silkworm.

Zhou Chun naturally would not object to his prudent approach.

After leaving four eggs, Zhou Chun left with the remaining eggs.

It's just that after leaving Zhou Daoquan's hermitage, Zhou Chun didn't return to the family immediately, but after hesitating for a while, he walked towards Long Yuanze.

I saw him standing on the edge of Long Yuanze, looking at the vast Daze in front of him and muttering for a long time, he soon seemed to have made up some kind of determination, and suddenly displayed the "Moon Toad Possession" magic power, turning into a white Taiyin Moon Toad.

Immediately after that, the Taiyin Moon Toad he transformed bounced and fell into the water, and soon disappeared without a trace.

The second time he incarnated as a moon toad, Zhou Chun was already very accustomed to this state.

He slightly used the powerful natural power of the toad demon beast in terms of breath to gather his aura, and then according to his memory, he rushed straight towards the Thunder Lizard Island in the depths of Long Yuanze.

This time, he didn't need to deliberately detour or avoid anyone, he just walked in a straight line along the way, and on the way, he passed through the habitats of some third-order demon beasts, and the other party was frightened by the fourth-order aura he exuded and fled in a hurry.

It was only a little more than an hour later, and he came to the island of Thunder Lizard, where he had been there once.

More than two hundred years have passed, and the number of third-order thunder dragon dragon lizard demon beasts on Thunder Lizard Island has increased again, and now there are four third-order thunder dragon lizards.

The two thunder and lightning dragon lizards that the Zhou family had fought at the beginning had also grown into third-order high-grade demon beasts.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun was not polite, and directly shot on the spot to freeze the two third-order high-grade thunder dragon lizards to death in the cold, leaving a whole corpse.

Later, he took away all the eggs laid by the thunder lizard beasts on the island, and took away some spirit grass that was beneficial to the growth of the thunder lizard beasts.

After doing this, he didn't care about how the remaining two third-order lightning dragon lizards and other thunder lizards were frightened and angry, and directly left the island quickly.

And just after Zhou Chun left for more than an hour, the thunder Jiao that had appeared more than two hundred years ago rushed to the island in a fit of rage.

At this time, the aura emanating from this thunder Jiao's body had already reached the level of a fourth-order high-grade demon beast!

When it learned what had happened from the mouths of the two remaining lightning dragon lizards, its lungs exploded!

Who doesn't know about those fourth-order demon beasts in this Dragon Yuanze that the thunder lizard beast group on Thunder Lizard Island is protected by it?

Where did the toad come from, and how dare to make a move on its descendants!

I saw that it flew directly into the water angrily, and chased straight in the direction where Zhou Chun left.

But after it chased it to the shore, it completely lost its target, even if it caught a lot of monsters on the shore and asked, it couldn't ask for any useful information, so angry that it directly slaughtered a nearby scale frog alien tribe to discourage!

But this thunder Jiao was not found, and after it left, the blue light in the nearby forest flashed, and there was a trace of abnormal escape fluctuations.

"What? A fourth-order high-grade thunder Jiao chased after him! ”

Somewhere in the wilderness, on a mountain in the wilderness, Zhou Chun couldn't help but be surprised after hearing the news brought back by Mu Mei Musang.

He also guessed that Thunder Lizard Island could develop so smoothly, and most of them were protected by fourth-order demon beasts behind it.

Therefore, after killing two third-order high-grade thunder and lightning dragon lizards this time, I felt that it might lead to the fourth-order demon beasts behind them.

So after going ashore, he specially left Mu Mei Musang, who is good at covert reconnaissance, to monitor.

I don't want to really bring back an important piece of information for myself!

"In this way, it was really a burst of luck to be able to successfully take away that [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree back then!"

Zhou Chun remembered that all the high-level officials of the Zhou family went out to seize the [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree back then, and he couldn't help but be afraid of it later.

If he knew that there was a fourth-order Thunder Jiao behind Thunder Lizard Island at that time, he would not dare to fight the idea of the [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree for the Zhou family!

And if he was caught by this fourth-order thunder Jiao at that time, I am afraid that there would be no Zhou family now.

It can only be said that the world is like this, sometimes it is just a successful adventure and a stroke of luck that can create two completely different situations.

The Zhou family successfully won the [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree that year, and over the years, the number of clansmen in the family who have relied on the [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree to build a foundation has added up to no less than two palms, so it has greatly enhanced the family heritage.

On the other hand, if one or two high-ranking officials died under the hands of the fourth-order Lei Jiao at that time, then in the series of events that occurred later, the Zhou family might not be able to be as stable as it has been all the way now.

"Although I don't know if there are any fifth-order dragons in this Longyuan Ze Thunder Jiao clan after the fall of the Thunder Jiao King, but since that Thunder Jiao has grown to the fourth-order upper grade, it will definitely be valued and cared for by the fifth-order dragon, it seems that this Thunder Lizard Island will not be able to go again in the future!"

"Fortunately, there are a lot of thunder lizard beast eggs obtained this time, which is enough to breed a population within the family, and there is no need to worry about those thunder lizard beasts on the island in the future."

Thinking of this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but smile.

He remembered that those thunder lizard beasts on Thunder Lizard Island had not been a year or two, and he had not been able to take the opportunity to capture the beast eggs when he had captured the [Zhuyuan Fruit] tree, so his heart was full of regret.

And after discovering that even the fourth-order demon beast could not identify his identity as a human race monk in the state of "Moon Toad Possession", he gave birth to the idea of forcibly snatching beast eggs with this identity.

I tried it myself this time, and it was really easy to use.

It's a pity that since he got into trouble with that fourth-order top-grade Lei Jiao this time, he must be extremely careful when he uses this identity in Long Yuanze and the wilderness in the future, so as not to be caught by the other party on the spot!

A few days later, Zhou Chun returned to the family and handed over the eighteen thunder lizard beast eggs he had brought back to Zhou Xinyan, and asked him to arrange for the clansmen to hatch and cultivate, and take good care of and grow this kind of group.

As for the two third-order top-grade thunder lizard beasts that were killed by themselves in seconds, their demon pills were all used by Zhou Chun as a reward for rewarding Lei Jiao in vain, allowing Lei Jiao to devour the gain cultivation in vain, and the rest of the materials were handed over to Zhou Mingde for refining.

And once he got two third-order high-grade demon pills with attributes that fit him as a tonic, Lei Jiao was also very happy in his heart.

Because it needed to meet the tribute of the eighty-one dragon scales of the Moon Wheel Sect, it had basically not made much progress in its cultivation over the years.

If two third-order high-grade demon pills are swallowed, they can almost be equivalent to the effect of their own twenty or thirty years of cultivation, which is much better.

The key is that Zhou Chun is the man he says, and he said that he would compensate for it, so he really did it.

This unique favor naturally makes it extra useful and happy.

And because Zhou Chun didn't want to expose his mid-stage Jindan cultivation, he also cultivated in the family in a very low-key manner in the next few years, training his apprentices.

That is, in the third year of his return, Zhou Zhiying's cultivation took a step further and broke through to the late stage of foundation building, when she was not yet fifty years old!

This excessively rapid cultivation speed made De Zhou Chun also worried that if she stayed in the family any longer, the secret of the best spiritual root qualification might be exposed, so she could only be sent to a wilderness first in the name of traveling, isolating the eyes of outsiders.

Not long after, Wu Yuzhu also successfully built a foundation with the help of Zhou Yuanlian, and her resistance to fire poison in her body was greatly enhanced, so she basically didn't have to worry about Zhou Chun anymore.
