Although beetles are not uncommon in the world of cultivation, only a few monks have encountered them. One of the reasons lies in the particularity of its living environment.
It is said in the Spiritual Beast Chronicles that beetles are afraid of coldness and light. They are greedy but have no internal organs such as intestines and stomach. They have a big mouth with sharp teeth, but they are useless.
Because of its special characteristics of being afraid of cold and light, beetles often live underground for a long time, never seeing the light of day, near underground heat sources such as volcanoes.
The temperature in such places is usually extremely high, making it difficult for low-level monks to come to such places for training.
In addition, except for its fangs, which are pretty good weapon refining materials, the rest of the beetles have no value anymore. High-level monks rarely look for this kind of monster insects, unless there is a real need for this kind of weapon refining. Go and find.
And because it is greedy but unable to digest and absorb, and does not even have the function of swallowing, the beetle has developed a mouthful of "iron teeth and copper teeth" that can directly absorb and swallow the blood, aura, and even soul essence of anything in the world. this kind.
This is also the second reason why very few monks have seen it, because all those who have seen it, except those who are really powerful in their own cultivation, have basically had their spiritual power, blood, soul and essence sucked away by this beetle. .
In the eyes of ordinary monks, beetles are a type of monster insect that is of little use but very dangerous and requires too much effort to find and capture. Among the many rare monsters and beasts in the world of cultivation, they are really not mentioned. interest.
Therefore, the common monsters and spirit beasts in the Wa spirit world only have a few descriptions of the silkworm, unlike the Spiritual Beast Book handed down from Yu Wanshimen, which details the taste of the silkworm's meat, as well as A taste for every part of its body.
Logically speaking, Yin Qi prevails in the underworld, and everywhere is filled with a gloomy and cold atmosphere. Yu Wan can't figure out how this beetle survives here.
But now that she has met him, she will naturally not waste this opportunity.
Yu Wan licked her lips, holding the Purple Blade Wan Dao tightly in her right hand, staring firmly at the beetle that kept biting the formation barrier.
Although the turmeric hard shell on the surface of the beetle's body is hard and difficult to be broken by a sword, the side close to the ground is extremely soft, and the meat is extremely tender and plump.
Moreover, although the aura leaked from it is powerful, it is only at the late stage of foundation establishment, and has not even reached the Great Consummation.
Yu Wan was quite confident in himself after killing a monster that was only a small level higher than himself.
However, one should not underestimate its swallowing ability. It can even swallow invisible and immaterial spiritual consciousness, making her still feel nauseous and dizzy.
The physical discomfort came again. Yu Wan knew that this was because the potency of the elixir had weakened, so he swallowed another handful to try to relieve the dizziness and nausea as much as possible.
However, at this moment, another one woke up on the opposite side of the still biting beetle. As soon as it woke up, it went straight to the place that attracted it the most.
Buzz!
The magic circle buzzed as it was overwhelmed. In the evening, he placed a small mountain of high-grade spiritual stones in the eye of the array, and then returned to its normal state.
The formation barrier light shield once again returned to the thickness when the spiritual power was full, and it blocked the two beetles very steadily.
"Humph, haha, you will separate in a moment and help me attract the attention of that beetle. Be careful not to get bitten by it."
"Hmph, hum."
"Hahaha."
Just after giving the order, Yu Wan heard their extremely excited replies and looked up to see that the two little ones had separated, turning into two figures, one red and one black, running towards the beetle that had just woken up and had just tasted the barrier.蜣.
Because of Yu Wan's reminder, the two piglets knew that the two slender tentacles on the big mouth of the monster insect were used to sense the fluctuations of spiritual power in the environment, so they were inevitably discovered and neither of them used their spiritual power.
However, with the addition of Lingbo Bagua footwork, their Scuds were light and did not disturb the beetle. At the same time, their speed was not inferior to the Scuds that were blessed by spiritual power in the past.
There are no organs such as intestines and intestines, and the beetle naturally has no lungs, throat, etc., so even if it is kicked by the unexpected Haha hoof and its big mouth is twisted, the body rushes into the hard dark gravel ground, the beetle Not even a single scream came out.
"ha."
As soon as Haha, who was covered in darkness, landed on the ground, he staggered, and there was a gap where the front hoof that had hit the corner of the beetle's mouth appeared.
While Hengha was running towards another silverfly, Yu Wan quickly dodged and appeared directly under the first waking silverfish, slashing at its chin with a knife.
The silverfly was about to bite again, but was caught off guard by Yu Wan's blow. He had no time to resist, and his body was cut into two sections and landed on the gravel ground with a thud.
The yellow shell on the back of the beetle is hard, and there is fascia connecting the shell and flesh. Although Yu Wan's knife was fast and powerful, it still did not completely cut off the fascia and cut off the yellow shell.
She glanced at the beetle whose head and body were basically separated, and put it into the storage bracelet on her right wrist that was specially used to hold various ingredients. She turned around and saw that the beetle was kicked to the ground by Haha, and Haha was also kicked by Haha. Injured.
However, the injury was probably not serious. Haha stumbled and then steadied his body, staring at Heng Heng as he dealt with the beetle, laughing non-stop.
Yu Wan raised his eyes and saw that Heng Heng had already rushed to the edge of the barrier, opened his mouth and spit out a ball of empty flames at the stunned beetle.
The colorless empty flames flew quickly towards the tentacles on the beetle's head, but the next moment there were no traces of burns on the beetle.
Seeing this, Heng Heng immediately protruded a ball of colorless flames, but it still did not stir up any movement.
At this moment, Yu Wan flashed over and killed the beetle that had already swallowed up the whole Kongyan with one knife.
It was with this knife that she realized why she hadn't completely cut off the beetle just now.
Through repeated life and death experiences, Yu Wan's sword intention has been refined to the point where he can use it at will. The sword's movements are no longer as passive as in the past, and he has mastered more mysteries.
However, even so, he didn't even cut through the hard shell with a single blow.
Yu Wan originally thought that the shell of the silverfish was extremely hard, but when she looked at the sword, she realized that part of the sword's intention had been swallowed by the silverfly.
No, it's not so much the intention of the sword, but the seemingly invisible but still qualitative spiritual power that the blade has been swallowed up.
Yu Wan knew in her heart that her sword skills would never be able to get rid of the form before she truly understood the power of the sword.
But she is not in a hurry. One day, she will be able to release the sword space as she wishes. Until then, not even a beetle can easily swallow her attack.
At first, I was shocked by the beetle's behavior of devouring the spiritual blade, but in the blink of an eye, I became clear at night and knew my current state and the room for future growth.
At this moment, her Taoist heart was more condensed than before, and her cultivation realm became more and more stable.
However, at this moment, she had just woken up, and the "pillars" around her were rising up one after another, exuding the aura of late stage foundation building, great perfection or even the peak of foundation building, and they rushed towards Yu Wan and Heng Ha with their big mouths open.
