114 Wood, thorns, fields
Happy Autumn!――
Inside the Spiritual Mist Grand Canyon
Ye Qin walked alone, and Xia and the others had already left the valley and returned to Xianyuan City. He now has no teammates to support him, and it is very dangerous to roam the valley alone, not only to face the monsters that roam everywhere, but also to watch out for other monks with malicious intentions. The degree of danger is at least several times higher than before. He even wondered if he would give up this mission and return to Xianyuan City.
But he was not reconciled.
This trip to the Lingwu Grand Canyon has little to gain. If you return to Xianyuan City now, then you can only team up with other monks next year, and the task of collecting rare spiritual herbs from the Qingdanmen will be delayed for at least a year. And next year's teaming up with other monks may not be better than this year's. Drag it out this year, drag it out next year, and the matter of joining Qingdanmen will become more and more slim.
Ye Qin was ruthless, but he gritted his teeth and stayed.
If you want to join Qingdanmen as soon as possible, it is necessary to take a certain risk. He checked his belongings, and most of the hundreds of rune papers he was carrying had been used, leaving less than a dozen of them. There is also a sword in the palm that can be used as a weapon. In addition, there are twenty or thirty lower-grade spirit stones. He now has very little capital.
Ye Qin walked cautiously in the valley, stopping every time he walked dozens of zhang, listening carefully to the surrounding situation, and trying to avoid encountering demon beasts or other monk teams. At the end of the day, he explored the canyon for more than ten miles, but he didn't gain anything. However, because of caution, there was no danger.
After dark, the Lingwu Grand Canyon was pitch black, it was difficult to see the five fingers when you stretched out your hand, and the demon beasts that lurked during the day came out to forage one after another, which was more dangerous than during the day. No monk dared to light a fire in the valley, attracting the peeps of the demon beasts and other monk squads.
Before it got dark, Ye Qin cut a small hole in the hard rock with the sword in his hand on the cliff of the canyon, and hid the entrance of the cave with a huge rock to survive the night of the Lingwu Grand Canyon.
He used the sword in his hand to shine faintly. I flipped through the old poisonous insects and picked up a book - "The Foundation of the Insect Scripture". The outer shell of the book is wrapped in a thin layer of silk. I don't know what it was made of. It can withstand the cold and freezing of the sun. What surprised Ye Qin was. The introduction to this book is impressively written. One of the Seven Great Immortal Cultivation Sects, the Earth Beast Spirit Gate, and the Earth Foundation Worm Sutra Exercises.
Hundreds of years ago. A named disciple of the Beast Spirit Sect during the Qi refining period. After the hopelessness of building the foundation. Returned to his hometown of Xiling in Nanliang Country. Inherited a line of immortal cultivation family. and left this volume of "The Foundation of the Worm Scripture" to future generations. As a family treasure. Xiling Three Poisons. It is the descendant of this named disciple of the Beast Spirit Sect.
It stands to reason. This Beast Spirit Sect is one of the seven great immortal cultivation sects in a dignified and upright manner. The way of raising insects is also dignified. I don't know how. This Beast Spirit Sect is a descendant of the Named Disciple. He went astray. Gradually, poisonous insects were raised. It has become a notorious evil cultivator in the area of Xianyuan City.
Ye Qin didn't care about any of this. He was curious that the scriptures were recorded on the foundation of the scriptures, and there were many alien insects that opened his eyes. There are more than 200 species. All sorts of unheard of insects. And how effective they are. Let him smack his tongue.
He soon found a bug in the front of the page. It's exactly the same as the old poisonous insect that the black gourd released the demon worm. After the black fog was broken. Worm corpses all over the ground. Let him remember it vividly.
Poisonous locust: a first-order alien insect of the wood system. This insect is ferocious. I can fly. Mouth spray poisonous mist. It can erode the mana of the immortal land. Sharp articulate. It grows by devouring humans and animals. The power of this insect depends on the number of people. The more bugs. The more powerful. If it's tens of thousands. The poisonous fog can be miles in size. Overwhelming. Swept through. Not an inch of grass. Bones all over the ground. Even if he is a monk of the Yudan period. I don't dare to try the edge lightly. But raising this poisonous locust is not easy. Eat plenty of food every day. Every 10 days, they will be fed a meal of "spiritual meat". to be able to feed it. Otherwise, it will be ferocious. Instead, it hurts the Lord.
From this point of view, the poisonous mist released by the old poisonous insect's spiritual weapon black gourd was only ten zhang in size, and at most hundreds of poisonous locusts were raised. Just raising these 100 poisonous locusts was already a heavy burden on the old poisonous insects of the fifth layer of the Qi refining period. Finding spiritual food every ten days is not a simple matter.
This poisonous locust is very aggressive, but its defense is very weak, and it is afraid of fire and cold. They are best at large group attacks, and they are capable of group attacks against groups of low-level monks. It is not very powerful to take on a high-ranking monk alone, and if it is attacked violently, it is easy to die.
Seeing this, Ye Qin couldn't help but sneer secretly in his heart. This old poisonous insect was lucky enough, but it ran into him in a rage and smashed dozens of rune papers out in one go. That power is equivalent to dozens of people without any interval of wild bombardment spells, and it is normal that hundreds of poisonous locusts can't stop it.
The book also records the method of domesticating alien insects in the Beast Spirit Gate.
There are many monsters and rare birds raised by the Beast Spirit Sect, most of which have some intelligence and are easy to domesticate. But this insect has no intelligence, does not listen to commands, and is the most difficult to control. The most basic control method of the Beast Spirit Gate is to use the spirit gourd to contain these alien insects and let them build nests in the gourd. This gourd can be carried out the simplest, kind of function. When you want to use it, pat the gourd, T come.
When not in use, just put the bugs in the gourd.
Coupled with the strange insect language that some disciples of the Beast Spirit Sect have pondered over the generations, they can be manipulated with the simplest "flight" and "attack". Each kind of insect has a completely different and unique insect language, and it is difficult to know the secret of it if you are not a disciple of the Beast Spirit Sect. However, in the "Scripture Foundation", there is no record of worm language.
Ye Qin flipped through slowly, noting down the appearance and characteristics of these insects. If you encounter it in the future, you can also recognize it, so as not to miss out on good things. Turning to the last few pages, Ye Qin saw a familiar golden insect, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Thorn Bee!
Thorn bee: a gold-based first-order insect with a golden thorn on its tail, and its stinging has the effect of "armor piercing" and is non-toxic.
I have to say that "armor piercing" is a very perverted ability, the most direct way to penetrate the defensive shield and attack the opponent's body. Even the ferocious locusts can't do this, and the locusts need to wipe out the mana of the opponent's defensive shield before they can bite the opponent's flesh.
But the problem is that the golden thorns of the thorn bee are not poisonous, even if the armor is broken, it is just a sting, and it is red and swollen into a big bag. For worldly people, being stung by a golden thorn will have the effect of mana damage and will bleed endlessly. But for the cultivation of immortals, this is really nothing, and the mana damage of the golden thorn was eliminated with the aura in the body, and the wound was blocked.
Although it has the effect of "armor piercing", the golden thorn is too small to kill the opponent.
The beast spirit gate is all good at raising insects, and the evaluations they make about the insects are usually incorrect.
Ye Qin's excited mood gradually calmed down, and he shook his head with a wry smile as he looked at the evaluation of the Thorn Bee by the disciples of the Beast Spirit Sect. He originally wanted to do something with this thorn bee, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to see it this way.
He sent the thorn bee that stung him to the Purple Mansion, and he didn't know if it was dead now.
Ye Qin's heart moved when he thought of this.
Closing his eyes cross-legged, his divine consciousness sank into the purple mansion.
Floating islands.
Ye Qin came out of the light shield of the Natal Yuan God Monument and floated to the top of the nearby planted wood thorn field, but the situation here made him dumbfounded. In the field, under the thorny bushes of two trees, more than 20 green berries fell.
The flower bones withered, and the berries were harvested.
What surprised him even more was that a small golden bee did not die, but built a small honeycomb in the rock crevice near the wood-thorn field, and was busy going in and out, busy doing something.
The ripe berries were peeled apart, and inside were two wood thorn seeds. More than 20 berries, more than 40 seeds were harvested at one time. Ye Qin was a little confused, half a year ago he got the seeds of wood thorns, and when he planted them in the field, the wood thorns only bloomed, and they did not bear fruit for a long time.
Why is it that all of a sudden all the fruit has come to fruit?
He took a piece of wood-based spirit stone and smashed it, and sprinkled all the spirit stone powder on the root of one of the wood thorns, wanting to see what was going on. Soon, the tree thorn absorbed the aura and bloomed more than ten small flowers. The little golden bee that was busy in the honeycomb, smelling the fragrance of the flowers, immediately buzzed over and flew over to collect pollen and nectar on the flowers. When it finished collecting pollen and nectar, it was not long before the flowers withered and produced more than a dozen berries again.
Ye Qin was speechless.
This little thorn bee directly solved the problem that he had been troubled for more than half a year and couldn't solve it.
Ye Qin thought for a while, and soon became extremely excited. With these seeds of wood thorns, he had a huge number of "winding charms" in his hands. Although this thing is not very lethal, it is a good thing to use to entangle, trap, and delay the enemy.
Just imagine, if you encounter an opponent stronger than yourself, or a threatening monster, even if you can't defeat the opponent, you will scatter a handful of wood thorn seeds in your hand and entangle the opponent. Encircle your opponent in a tangle of wood thorns. Even a ninth-level monk in the Qi Refining Stage had a good spiritual weapon, and it was difficult for him to cut all the wood thorns in a very short period of time. The opponent will not be able to chase him until he has sliced through the troublesome wooden thorns. The effort between a few breaths was enough for him to easily escape without a trace.
If you encounter a weak opponent, you can even trap your opponent to death and kill them in one fell swoop.
With an almost infinite supply of Wood Thorn Seeds, his safety in the Spirit Mist Grand Canyon would be greatly improved. Even if you are alone, you can roam this dangerous place without worrying about being chased by powerful enemies.
Ye Qin was unusually excited.
He immediately picked out all the wood-based spirit stones he carried, and there were four wood-based spirit stones, all of which were scattered in the field planted with wood thorns, and soon harvested more than forty berries. A total of hundreds of wood thorn seeds were obtained.
