After all, Xing Ye's ability to find him without being humble or arrogant was entirely premeditated.
These plans were all guided by his mother Su Li, but he didn't expect that Su Li had disappeared for hundreds of years and actually joined the Demon Sect and became the second wife of the leader of the Demon Sect.
Things are really unpredictable...
Back when Li Mubai was still in the Golden Core Realm, he entered a secret realm with Su Li and several people from the Golden Core Realm from major sects.
He has always been used to walking alone. After entering the secret realm, it was a dense forest, often accompanied by high-level monsters.
However, in such an environment, there are usually high-grade spiritual herbs appearing, so at that time, he continued to go deep into the hinterland, practicing fighting monsters and collecting rare spiritual herbs at the same time.
But he had never been invincible as if cheating all the way, and most of his opponents were fighting at the pace of one or two monster beasts.
As a result, this time I fell on swarms of white moths and wax cicadas!
The white moth and wax cicada are all white and flawless, and their tail is more like a nine-tailed fox, branching out into countless branch-like white bristly tentacles. The most important thing is that their secretions have a strong corrosive effect, and the seemingly white The flawless body is even covered with moth powder that can make people faint, and this moth powder is not inhaled through the mouth and nose like others.
But when the moth powder is sprinkled on the skin or hair of a person or a monster, it will penetrate into the texture from the pores. Even if you have spiritual energy to protect your body, it will be of no use by then.
This is why White Moth and Wax Chan, a small person who is not afraid of extremely strong attack power, can actually occupy a place in this hinterland.
This guy has no fear of competition from other spiritual energy, but it is only afraid of fire spiritual energy, and loves wood spiritual energy the most. It can even absorb wood spiritual energy in the air and turn it into its own nutrients.
What a coincidence, Li Mubai has the qualification of wood spirit root, and is also a superior single wood spirit energy.
As soon as he entered the world of White Moth and Wax Chan, the pure wood spiritual energy emanating from his body instantly made him a target like a target.
Thousands of white moths and wax cicadas waved their bristles, which were originally like steel branches at the back of their tails, and made a trembling "buzzing" sound, then surrounded Li Mubai!
At that time, it was the first time that Li Mubai saw the white moths and wax cicadas in front of him, and he was not familiar with the characteristics of this monster.
Directly facing them, he slashed a pure wood spirit sword energy towards them!
Li Mubai's sword energy was said to be fierce and domineering, but when it arrived in front of the white moths, it weakened a lot in an instant. What's more, he could see with the naked eye that the groups of white moths actually decomposed and nibbled away. The whale swallowed his wood spirit energy!
This scene made Li Mubai stunned...
He never expected that these white moths could neutralize his sword energy in this way.
He did not believe in evil, so he continued to attack with 100% of the wood spirit sword energy... Without any suspense, his sword force was broken down again.
A 100% attack from the golden elixir realm, not even touching the bristles of a moth! Who would believe it? !
This result made him extremely depressed, and he felt like he had instantly become a useless person. These moths were really his nemesis...
Now that things are like this, what else can he fight for? He might as well go first.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, he wanted to jump away and leave, but strangely, he found that he had been hit by the moth powder that was like soft tendon powder at some point.
And this moth powder is a colorless and odorless drug that can cause coma. Every time the white moth and wax cicada tremble, they will shake off the moth powder on their bodies. Think about the appearance of Li Mubai, and the wood spirit energy attacks them again. , one can imagine how many white moths and wax cicadas he stirred up!
And each of them is about the size of a fist. At first glance, they look different, but many of them have Yao Mozi who have evolved to the golden elixir realm.
No wonder they broke up his offensive and resolved it so easily.
At that time, Li Mubai was holding back and insisting on not letting himself fall down. When a group of white moths and wax cicadas were about to wrap around him, and planned to stick their saliva on his staggering body...
"call!!!"
A tongue of red flames passed by him, instantly burning the white moths that were close to him, causing them to lose their original whiteness and become as black as charcoal. ,
As soon as they encountered the flames, the white moths immediately fled and retreated as if they had encountered a nemesis. However, the first group of white moths were unlucky. Not only were they hit and burned black, they actually made a cry as loud as a baby before they died. A strange roaring sound made the group of white moths behind them even more vigorously shaking their feathers. With this movement, the colorless and odorless moth powder flew over overwhelmingly...
"No! Take him away quickly!"
This voice was a female voice that came to Li Mubai's ears when he lost consciousness and his eyes gradually became blurred.
When Li Mubai woke up from his coma, he opened his eyes and looked up into a cave, with some firelight reflecting on the roof.
And when he suddenly realized the situation he was in before he fell into coma, he suddenly sat up.
"hiss!"
The thing was lifted up so violently that his dizzy head felt as if he was weightless. It shook his head and hurt his brain, and he let out a gasp.
Originally, he had inhaled a lot of moth powder. How could it lose its efficacy so quickly? It would have taken at least a day and a night to render him unconscious. However, his consciousness recovered quite quickly, and he woke up in less than half a day.
"you're awake."
Li Mubai, who was rubbing his forehead, suddenly heard this voice, which was not unfamiliar. He then raised his eyes to look at the source of the voice and saw a man and a woman sitting by the fire in front of him.
The person who spoke was the female cultivator. She was in the realm of golden elixir. She was dressed in white clothes and had a delicate and quiet look on her face. She was playing with the baked goods in her hands while looking at Li Mubai with a slight smile on her face.
As for the male cultivator, he had a serious look on his face and didn't say much. He sat across from the female cultivator and meditated in a coiled position. His cultivation was at the level of the golden elixir.
Just seeing Li Mubai wake up, he glanced at him very indifferently and withdrew his gaze again.
When Li Mubai saw the two of them clearly, he finally knew who they were.
One is none other than Saint Su Li from the Jade Immortal Sect, and the other is Xiang Xingming from the Shuoyin Sect.
Needless to say, he knew that he must have been rescued by the two of them. He slowly stood up. When he stood up, his hand touched the sword that was placed beside him.
Seeing that his sword was kindly picked up by them, he stood up and saluted the two of them, and said:
"My descendants, Xuantian Sect Li Mubai, would like to thank you both for your help. Mubai will do his best to repay you for your kindness today."
"You're welcome, Master Mubai. I am Su Li of the Jade Immortal Sect. This is Master Xingming of the Shuoyin Sect. It just so happens that I have both water and fire spiritual roots, and the only weakness that this white moth knows so far is that he is afraid of fire. Fortunately, I have fire spirit roots below, and I can temporarily defeat the white moth and wax cicada.
This is what can save you. After all, the wood spirit roots of Master Mubai are indeed the nutrient host of the white moth and wax cicada. They are not even afraid of your attacks, and can also dissolve everything with wood spirit energy. Fortunately, we arrived in time, otherwise you, the real person, would indeed be in danger. It is God's will, and it is true that the real Mubai's life should not be cut off. "Su Li on the side heard Li Mubai's promise and then told him that she understood Mo Wax Chan's nature.
And Li Mubai never expected that after his promise, many years later, he would indeed welcome Xing Ye, his unexplainable great disciple...
The three of them had a polite conversation to get to know each other. To be more precise, it was the conversation between Li Mubai and Su Li. On the contrary, Xiang Xingming had been silently listening to their conversation.
Through communication and understanding, Li Mubai learned that the reason why they met in the White Moth Realm was to find the pupae of the White Moth and Wax Cicada.
And this moth pupa egg is an extremely precious elixir, a good thing to refresh your mind and improve your soul power.
It was Su Li who wanted this elixir.
She was looking for this medicinal introduction for her master, so she had been involved in research on the white moth and wax cicada, and naturally she had a basic understanding of their situation.
This was the first time for Li Mubai to encounter this thing. He was only obsessed with swordsmanship on weekdays. Even though he was involved in the alchemy weapon array, he didn't think that Su Li was involved in something more profound. Naturally, the white moth and wax cicada were not among him. It is within the scope of knowledge.
However, the breeding position of moth pupae is extremely hidden. Even if Su Li and Xiang Xingming used their golden elixir consciousness to explore, they could not find out its specific location.
Li Mubai was in an emergency situation that day, so they took him away from the range of the white moth and wax cicada first. After he recovered, they went to investigate in detail.
Seeing that they were in need of help, Li Mubai, who had just been rescued, couldn't help but suggest:
"In that case, how about I help you find it together."
Su Li was stunned, "This is not good, after all, Master Mubai, your wood spirit energy..."
Before Su Li finished speaking, Li Mubai spoke again:
"It doesn't matter. Now that I know the characteristics of these white moths, I can know how to set up defenses against them. As for finding moth pupae, maybe I can help."
Li Mubai has the eye to break through illusions and can break through the cover of illusions.
Considering that the land is the territory of the white moth and wax cicada, they will definitely not place their offspring outside their range.
Therefore, if he opens his delusional eyes by then, he will be able to find the moth chrysalis easily.
However, Li Mubai couldn't help but sigh at the reverse causality of the white moth and wax cicada. The moth powder of the adult white moth and wax cicada can cause people to coma, and the saliva in its mouth is extremely corrosive.
But except for the external nemesis of fire attacks, I didn’t expect that the thing that could resolve their toxicity would be their moth pupa eggs...
Why does this cause and effect feel so sinful...
After adjusting his breath for a day, Li Mubai really used his eyes to put flame talismans around his body, and little by little, he and the two of them approached the white moth and the wax cicada to look for the moth's pupa eggs.
Sure enough, when Li Mubai's right eye opened, even when the undetectable red light pattern flashed away, it was still seen by Su Li, who often studied all kinds of strange scroll records.
Although she saw it, she was just suspicious at the time and did not guess what the pattern pattern on Li Mubai's right eye was.
But just when Li Mubai found the moth pupa and looked back, he saw Su Li staring at his right eye with a look of shock on his face...
At that moment, Li Mubai narrowed his eyes slightly and interrupted Su Li's meditation with a voice, bringing her back to her thoughts.
After Su Li knew that she was too presumptuous, she immediately sent a message to Li Mubai with her spiritual consciousness, saying that she was not a talkative person and would not publicize the weirdness of his eyes everywhere. She was just curious.
Li Mubai always stared at Su Li's extremely candid face with a burning gaze.
Make it difficult for him to judge whether what this female cultivator said is true or false? !
But what made Li Mubai look away was that Xiang Xingming, who had always had no sense of presence, actually saw the two of them looking directly at each other, and he also saw a hint of danger in Li Mubai's eyes...
He suddenly stepped in front of Su Li and glared at Li Mubai without saying a word.
But the protective aura was fully activated, which shocked Li Mubai, forcing him to withdraw his scrutiny.
Looking at Xiang Xingming's protective attitude, Li Mubai was a little confused. What was the relationship between the two? His movements to protect people were extremely skillful, and it didn't look like two people forming a temporary team at all.
Besides, Su Li had saved him once before, so compared to his life, this was insignificant.
Since she was able to lend a helping hand and save him, she owed her a favor. Even if she told others about her deception in the future and caused unnecessary trouble for him, it would be considered a debt repaid to her. of this kindness.
Comparing the two people in front of him, Su Li was an extremely perceptive person. On the contrary, Xiang Xingming did not notice the changes in his right eye. I don't know if it was because Xiang Xingming's cultivation level was still one level lower than his. It’s not easy to notice...
Seeing that the atmosphere in front of him was a little tense, Li Mubai slowed down and took the lead in telling them the location of the moth pupa eggs. It turned out that the white moths and wax cicadas often dripped down, and the corrosive secretions in their mouths were , gathered into the bottom of the pool...
The mucus they secrete from one mouth is only corrosive and cannot form a barrier to isolate spiritual consciousness.
Why...think about how a pool of disgusting saliva secretions could have such wonderful isolating power.
It has to be said that everything in the world has its own rules of survival. Even if it seems weak, it still has innate skills that can avoid danger...
After receiving this information from Li Mubai, Su Li and Xiang Xingming looked at each other and frowned.
