"call……".
Xiao Hua breathed a long sigh of relief, activated the insect nest, and slowly fell back to the Cold Soul Cauldron.
He didn't expect that the amount of essence and blood spewed out from the insect nest this time was much more than the amount recorded in the treasure book. He was a little weak in energy and blood, and had to take a certain treasure to replenish it. It seemed that the spirit in the insect nest was Insects are indeed not ordinary things.
As soon as the insect nest fell into the Cold Soul Cauldron, there was a strange sound of "crickets swishing", and from the small holes on the surface of the insect nest, countless soft-bodied beetles the size of broad beans, purple with golden spots, poured out.
These soft-bodied beetles surrounded the golden cocoon shells that had fallen off in the cauldron and gnawed at them. In just a moment, all the golden cocoon shells were eaten away.
"Fuck, what is this?".
Looking at the densely packed purple beetles in the Cold Soul Cauldron, Xiao Hua couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body. These small soft-bodied beetles looked really disgusting.
"Grandma, what on earth is this?".
Xiao Hua muttered as he took out the "Insect and Beast Driving Guide".
"This seems to be the ninth ancient cockroach? Hiss? No, it looks the same, but it says that the larvae of the ancient cockroach are red or blue, but how come mine is purple with gold spots?" .
Xiao Hua rubbed his bald head and began to wonder again. He kept looking at the "Insect and Beast Repelling Guide" and then at the larvae.
"Hey, how come this ancient cockroach adult looks so much like Xiao Qiang? Oh, yes, isn't this cockroach the scientific name of cockroach? Oh my god, isn't it? Could it be that this ancient cockroach is the cockroach in ancient times? ".
Xiao Hua was immediately stunned. He had spent so much effort and ended up raising a nest of cockroaches?
"No, no, I must have made a mistake. How could an ancient cockroach be a cockroach? If it was really a cockroach, how could it be on the ranking list of spiritual insects and beasts? No, no, I must have made a mistake."
Xiao Hua knew that cockroaches were cockroaches, but he refused to admit it. It was not that he had trypophobia, but that he felt that cockroaches were too dirty and disgusting. It was a psychological effect.
But it's just depressing, this ancient cockroach is the "ranking of spiritual insects and spiritual beasts" after all. Even if Xiao Hua doesn't like the ninth spiritual creature, he still can't bear to give it up, so he can only keep it for now.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xiao Hua decided to return. Now that the Spirit Gathering Grass has been found and the spirit insects have been subdued, it is time to go back and hide in the city to continue practicing.
Although Juan'er's whereabouts are still unknown, the Minotaur has recovered to the middle stage of Nascent Soul and is still looking for him everywhere. It is no longer convenient for him to continue the investigation and can only place his hope on the two casual cultivators, Gong Ming and Hu Laowu.
There was no way, knowing that there were tigers in the mountain, he chose to go to the tiger mountain. That was what Wu Song did after drinking too much. Xiao Hua was only in the middle stage of the golden elixir. If he was really found by the Minotaur, he would definitely die.
Leaving the land in the cave, Xiao Hua used the Water Avoidance Technique and the Bubble Travel Technique to dive into the water, preparing to return the same way, but as soon as he got into the water, he found that the situation was a little different.
He could only see a radius of nearly a kilometer underwater before, and because there was no light at the bottom of the sea, everything he saw was a little gray.
But now it's as if a light has been turned on on the seabed. The originally dark stones and seaweed are actually emitting colorful light, and the entire seabed has become colorful.
Xiao Hua was stunned immediately. What is going on? Why did the seabed suddenly change? Xiao Hua touched his bald head. Could it be because of the "Water Spirit Bead" from before?
The water spirit bead contains endless water spirit energy. Is it because the colorful vortex in his mind absorbed the water spirit bead that he can see the underwater world clearly?
Thinking of this, Xiao Hua was actually happy. If this was true, it meant that the colorful vortex was not his inner demon. Although he could not control it, this colorful vortex was definitely harmless.
Xiao Hua was suddenly in a good mood, and his curiosity came up. Since he could see the underwater world clearly, and this was a real real space, a lost prehistoric world, he naturally had to go and take a look.
Even if you can't find any treasures, even if it's just to open your eyes, think of it as exploring a new continent. Oh no, it should be exploring a lost prehistoric world.
This abyss is so big that Xiao Hua could not see the end even after circling the seabed for a long time, but his eyes were really opened.
There is no sea surface here, but there are mountains and forests everywhere under the water. Of course, the forests here are not trees, but underwater forests composed of all kinds of huge corals and seaweeds.
The most important thing is that these corals and seaweeds, including various creatures on the seabed, all exude a faint gleaming light. Purple corals, green seaweeds, blue water with gold, plus various colorful seafloor creatures , Xiao Hua felt like he had arrived in a fairy tale world.
There are really endless beautiful views along the way. The more Xiao Hua watched, the happier he became, and the more he watched, the less he wanted to leave. Have you seen the movie "Avatar"? The Pandora planet inside is very beautiful, but this place is even more beautiful than Pandora.
After traveling underwater for more than two hours, Xiao Hua climbed over an underwater mountain and came to an underwater plain behind the mountain.
This plain is not big, with a radius of only a dozen miles, but there is something different here.
There are some collapsed or destroyed ruins scattered in a circular pattern on the plain. On the outermost edge of these ruins, there are still a few broken city walls that can be seen vaguely.
"Wow, this must be a ruins. Could it be the prehistoric civilization of our Xiaolingtian?"
Xiao Hua was excited. This was a big discovery. He had always believed that Xiao Lingtian had prehistoric civilization.
Think about it, everyone, Xiaolingtian, that is, the earth, has existed for nearly 5 billion years, but human civilization has only been around for 5,000 years. Even if ancient humans are included, it only lasts a few million years. In terms of time proportion, It doesn't make sense.
Since becoming an immortal cultivator, Xiao Hua has become more convinced that if there was no prehistoric civilization, where did those ancient cultivators come from? Oh, they are all like Sun Wukong, jumping out of the stone? How is that possible?
Xiao Hua couldn't help but be excited. He was even happier than when he found an ancient cultivator's cave and picked up a treasure, because this ruins not only proved that Xiao Lingtian had prehistoric civilization, but also proved the existence of certain legends and ancient cultivators.
After a cursory inspection of the ruins on the edge, Xiao Hua flew to the center of the circular ruins, where there was an open space similar to a square, and opposite the square there was a building that looked like a palace.
This building is very strange, a bit like a Mayan pyramid. Below is a huge nine-story ladder-shaped base, and above is a palace. There are steps on all sides that lead to the palace above the base.
But the palace on the Mayan pyramid only had one floor, but here it has five floors.
Moreover, this five-story palace has no walls. Apart from the floor slabs, only huge square or round columns can be seen. At first glance, it looks a bit like an unfinished building.
But on the highest floor of this five-story palace, there stood a huge humanoid statue. Under the statue were many altars and jars of different sizes. Those huge square pillars or columns were also covered with relief murals.
Xiao Hua felt that this should be a temple used for sacrifice.
