More than twenty days have passed since the battle to rescue the Hidden Moon Sect and the Qingxu Sect.
Over the past twenty days, the number and frequency of encounters with spiritual insects have become less and less, and the distance traveled every day has become longer and longer.
Jiang Yun roughly calculated that he had moved at least nearly 400 kilometers. The current location should be underground in the inner area of Luoyan Mountain Range.
But it has only just left the underground range of the core area. If you want to enter the outer area, you will have to dig for more than a month at least.
The entire Luoyan Mountain Range is very vast, and its general shape is a circle.
It is said that the maximum diameter is at least more than 6,000 kilometers, and the minimum diameter is not less than 4,000 kilometers.
In short, Jiang Yun was completely away from those strongholds, and finally completely separated from the most brutal battlefield. As for how many living people there were in the nearly 200 strongholds, it was not Jiang Yun's concern.
Jiang Yun planned to dig up and return to the ground tomorrow to take a look.
“There’s good stuff there!”
Suddenly, the spirit seal suddenly emitted a purple light in one direction and conveyed a message.
Jiang Yun was overjoyed and quickly asked the gold-sniffing rats to start digging in the direction of the spirit seal.
At the same time, Jiang Yun was also very surprised, knowing that the spirit seal had been with him for so many years and never reminded him to find the treasure. Even though there was a Blue Sky Pearl in the secret cave, he didn't remind Guo Jiangyun.
Jiang Yun guessed that either the treasure was extremely precious, more precious than the Blue Sky Pearl... Jiang Yun thought it was unlikely, or there was something special that aroused the interest of the spirit seal.
After digging for an hour, Jiang Yun saw a powerful spiritual power through his spiritual pupils, and that spiritual power did not flow, but was in a stagnant state.
Jiang Yun was not surprised by this. After all, only the spiritual power in living things could flow. It was obviously a treasure.
But as he got closer, Jiang Yun felt something was wrong, because the unknown item was too large.
Jiang Yun was a little curious at the moment, but he would not put himself in danger. Jiang Yun patted his belt, and the mother insect and a second-level daughter insect appeared in the outside world.
After Jiang Yun gave the order to the insect mother, the insect mother began to communicate with the daughter insects.
"Mi~mi"
"Mimi!"
After hearing the mission clearly, Zichong began to dig a hole, and Jiang Yun began to wait. At the same time, the gold-sniffing rats are also allowed to eat and rest.
For more than two years underground, these thirty or so gold-sniffing rats have worked hard without complaint. Tunnel digging tasks and mining tasks are never lazy. You only need to pay some ordinary fruits and one spiritual date per month to continue to shine.
Jiang Yun once saw a sleeping gold-sniffing rat still scratching its little paws, as if it was digging for something. Jiang Yun could only lament their love for digging.
For a person like Jiang Yun who practices hard and works seriously, these hard-working spiritual beasts can be said to have touched his heart.
Jiang Yun has decided to discuss with his wife whether he can give these spirit rats to him after returning to Spirit Beast Mountain.
Well...discuss it carefully.
Under the observation of the spiritual pupil, Zi Chong quickly crawled to the place where the huge spiritual power was, but there was no response from the spiritual power.
Then Zichong left the light spot and began to return along the same route as before. The returning daughter made a cry, and the mother next to her began to translate.
"You mean it was a huge monster, long and red, with blood all over the ground. The blood was very hot and dripped to the ground, making the ground smoke?"
Jiang Yun, who was sitting around with the gold-sniffing rats munching the spirit fruit, heard the translation from the insect mother and immediately understood that it was a dead monster, and felt happy in his heart.
But Jiang Yun soon became confused again. Even the corpse of a high-level monster should not be of concern to Brother Linghuoyin.
Brother Linghuoyin is so talented. This is the first time that he has been reminded to find good things by himself.
But since Brother Linghuoyin reminded him, he had to go once anyway, otherwise he would definitely regret it in the future.
Jiang Yun finished the spirit fruit in a few seconds and threw away the core.
The eyes of a gold-sniffing rat next to it lit up, and he quickly stuffed the spirit fruit in his hand into his mouth, then picked up the core and rubbed it with his face happily, and then stuffed it into his mouth as well. After a while, his cheeks All drummed up.
Jiang Yun immediately ordered the gold-sniffing rat to dig in the direction of the monster. The well-fed gold-sniffing rats were full of energy, and amidst the lively squeaking, they dug through an underground space in less than a stick of incense.
The enlarged ethereal shield floated in front of Jiang Yun. At the same time, Jiang Yun held several defensive talismans in his hand, which were activated at any time.
When Jiang Yungang saw everything in front of him, he was shocked.
At this moment, there is an underground space with a radius of seven to eight hundred meters. A few hundred meters away, a huge dragon monster about a hundred meters long and more than five meters thick is curled up and motionless. A pressure unique to the dragon type still pervades every part of this space.
"Earth Fire Dragon? This is a great gift!"
A bright smile appeared on Jiang Yun's face, and with a slap on his belt, more than twenty second-level worms flew towards the body of the Earth Fire Dragon.
Although he was completely dead under Jiang Yun Lingtong's observation, he still let Zi Chong test it out first.
Just when the worms were about to approach the earth fire dragon, something unexpected happened. Dozens of silver spirit insects the size of a baby's fist flew out from the earth fire dragon.
Due to his small size and extremely weak spiritual power, Jiang Yun had not noticed it before.
"They are all late level one, weak chickens." Jiang Yun glanced at the spirit worm casually and then continued to look at the body of the earth fire dragon, preparing to think about how to deal with it.
The silver spirit insects have already stood in front of the Ziworms, seeming to want to prevent the Ziworms from passing by.
But what is strange is that the Zizhong, who had always fulfilled Jiang Yun's orders meticulously, were successfully stopped by a mere first-level Zizhong, and the Zichong had no intention of harming the silver spirit insects.
One insect wanted to go around, but a silver flying insect quickly flapped its wings and flew in front of it to stop it.
"Mi! Mi? Mi? Mi?"
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"
The two actually communicated with each other, and Zi Chong seemed to be embarrassed.
Jiang Yun glanced at the exchange scene and sighed in his mind, saying that the Golden Meteor Undead Worms have a heroic demeanor, which can be seen from the fact that they do not bully the weak.
If the insects knew Jiang Yun's thoughts, they would definitely express their innocence. If it were other monster insects, they would turn them into ashes with a burst of fire, but these in front of them...
At this time, Jiang Yun was already studying the use of corpses...
"The size of this Earth Fire Jiao is similar to that of Ancestor Hao's seventh-level Golden Armored Cloud Jiao. It is at least a seventh-level, or even a seventh-level peak. This kind of material is enough to be refined into a powerful magic weapon. It is estimated that this It’s the one Wu Tu mentioned.”
"I'm afraid those three girls don't have the ability to refine materials of this level. I'll go back and ask them. Maybe I need to ask Elder Le to help. As long as the craftsmanship is good enough and doesn't deceive others, it's normal for the craftsmanship fee to be higher."
"Sigh... I haven't formed the elixir yet. As a result, I have already obtained the materials for the Five Elements Suppressing Spirit Bell and this corpse. If everything goes well, I will definitely get two powerful magic weapons. I was not particularly anxious to form the elixir before, but now Why is there a sense of urgency?"
"Is this the trouble with happiness?"
"I remember that in my previous life, a college classmate played a game and discovered a top-notch weapon. As a result, the equipment level was three levels lower. After that, he stayed up for five days and five nights, day and night. When he equipped that weapon, he closed the door and the surroundings were dark. A circle of eyes, falling down with a smile, I seem to be feeling a bit similar at the moment."
Jiang Yun understood in his heart that strength was everything in this world, and talking about dignity, life and freedom for the weak was a joke, so powerful magic weapons were extremely important.
Although Jiang Yun has never refined a magic weapon, he can be sure that the magic weapon refined from this corpse will definitely be more powerful than the silver flying sword of Tai Zhen Sect Liu He.
The value of some magic weapons cannot really be measured by spiritual stones. Even for the best refining materials, many only accept barter for goods.
Many Foundation Establishment Perfection monks have exhausted their wealth in order to form the elixir, and it is not uncommon for some to have no wealth to refine their natal magic weapon for thirty to fifty years after the elixir was successfully formed. Rich people like Jiang Yun are really rare.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yun glanced at the spiritual insects who were chatting, and suddenly his whole body was shaken. He looked at the silver spiritual insects intently and narrowed his eyes slightly.
It seems that I want to see it more realistically. Jiang Yun quickly flew forward in the air.
Jiang Yun flew to less than a hundred meters away from the corpse and landed, not daring to get any closer. After carefully observing the silver spirit insect, Jiang Yun's pupils shrank slightly, which showed that he was not at peace in his heart. .
"No. 13 on the list of luck beasts and insects, there are silver-spotted glow bugs, and there are so many of them! Dad of the Spirit Seal, you are like a treasure hunter!!"
Jiang Yun sighed to the spirit seal, his voice full of joy, surprise and disbelief.
After hearing Jiang Yun's words, the spirit seal also flashed slightly with purple light twice, as if to say you're welcome.
Jiang Yun patted his face with both hands, and his original serious expression instantly turned into an affable one, with a very gentle smile. Then he patted the storage bag and released the insect mother.
Jiang Yun squatted down and began to communicate with the insect mother. After the explanation, the mother insect flew towards the silver-spotted glow insect.
"Mi! Mi~~~" "Chirp! Chirp!"
Watching the exchange between the insect mother and the silver-spotted glow insect, Jiang Yun prayed silently in his heart.
"I hope the insect mother can become a qualified diplomat."
In fact, it's not that Jiang Yun doesn't want to capture it by force, but that he simply can't do it because the silver-spotted glow bug's innate ability is to convert virtual reality.
The virtual-real conversion is very buggy. Even if you take out the Inverted Five Elements Formation to lock them in, they can still turn into phantoms through their bodies and fly out of the formation, unable to stop them at all.
Even after turning into a void, it can shuttle freely underground and avoid attacks. In short, this spirit insect has no fighting power, but its life-saving ability is max.
Jiang Yun recalled the introduction in the classics. Only the elixir fire of monks above the elixir formation stage and the infant fire of Nascent Soul monks can harm the transformed silver-spotted glow worms. In addition, some special formations can also trap them.
In short, Jiang Yun now has no way to deal with them.
Thinking about it, Jiang Yun suddenly felt a little emotional.
"It seems that the life-saving ability of the lucky beasts and spirit insects is very strong. The five-tailed cloud Lord turns his whole body into wind and comes and goes without a trace. The life-saving ability of the golden luck frog is water escape. The first-ranked five-color auspicious spirit path It’s a dimensionality-reducing curse, and you can’t even have evil thoughts towards him.”
"The most speechless thing is that any being who kills a lucky beast will have his lifespan shortened and will be unlucky."
It is recorded in the classics that the lifespan of the top ten luck beasts and spirit insects will be reduced by at least a hundred years after killing them. The higher the ranking, the more the lifespan will be reduced. The lifespan of the bottom one will be reduced by a little less, but it will also be reduced by a few places. Countless lifespans, as for the number one five-color Xiangling Deer...
Jiang Yun swallowed his saliva when he thought of this, and thought to himself: "Would it be possible that a monk who had just given birth to a baby would die on the spot if he killed it? We humans have a short life span and cannot afford to kill it."
Jiang Yun looked at the silver-spotted glowworm and prayed in his heart.
"Don't run away! The food here is good, it's safe, and I have a lot of insect friends. I'm so happy!"
Thinking of the main role of the silver-spotted glow bugs, Jiang Yun was already thinking about how to use (exploit) them.
In addition to increasing the owner's luck, each kind of luck spirit beast or spirit insect also has various uses after recognizing its owner.
For example, the Golden Luck Frog has the effect of gathering wealth. As for the specific effect, different people have different opinions.
Wuwei Yunjun's special abilities are not introduced in the classics, but Qinghuo once told Jiang Yun that it has the special ability of purification.
At first glance, I think it is just an air freshener, but it is not.
Demonic energy, evil energy, and death energy can all purify it, but its cultivation level is too low and it can only purify a few tens of meters around it. If the surrounding demonic energy and evil spirits are too strong, the range will be further reduced.
The special ability of the silver-spotted glow bug is...
Jiang Yun couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth when he thought of this, which showed that the joy in his heart could no longer be suppressed, because the special ability of this spiritual insect is to accelerate the growth of the spiritual insect.
According to records in the classics, the silver-spotted glow bug has the ability to accelerate the growth of spiritual insects. Both the cultivation speed and the physical growth speed will be greatly accelerated without any side effects.
However, because these silver-spotted glow bugs are only at the late stage of the first level, they are very effective against first level spiritual insects, but the effect on second level and above spiritual insects will be greatly reduced.
According to legend, the reason for the emergence of this kind of spiritual insect is the condensation of the soul thoughts after the death of a large number of spiritual insects and monsters. Therefore, the more dead bugs there are, the more likely it is that this spiritual bug will be born.
However, this is just the speculation of the monks and has not been confirmed.
"It takes hundreds of years to reach the late stage of the first level. This cultivation speed is too slow."
At this time, the spirit seal sent out rays of light and conveyed a message to Jiang Yun.
"Are you saying that although there are more than thirty of these spiritual insects with different thoughts, they are actually a whole, so after giving a sub-seal to one of them, the others can enjoy the effect. If they advance, they will advance together? "
"This is not bad, but with the speed of their cultivation, it feels like it is a drop in the bucket. After all, it takes hundreds of years..."
"Wait a minute... I remember that this kind of spiritual insect does not eat meat, but only eats fruits. Where did the fruits come from underground? I guess they only have mushrooms, sweet potatoes and moss? Could it be that the slow cultivation is because the underground food is too poor? Is it because you’re hungry?”
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun felt more and more that his guess was correct. He took out a huge black melon from his storage bag and broke it in half, revealing the golden flesh inside.
This is a spiritual fruit called Jinluo, and its taste is similar to the watermelon from the previous life.
The spirit insects seemed to smell something and turned to look at the spirit fruit.
One of the spirit insects was successfully seduced and flew slowly towards Jin Luo, but was hit by another one, so it quickly returned to the team to continue the interception mission.
"Master, I can clearly hear the sounds of their swallowing and stomach growling. They must be hungry, but they insist on not letting us get close to the corpse."
"You tell them we won't go near the carcass, so they can eat without worry."
"Mi, mi!"
The silver-spotted glowworms all turned their heads to look at Jiang Yun. Jiang Yun quickly showed a kind and bright smile. The silver-spotted glowworms looked at Jiang Yun and then at Jin Luoguo. More than thirty of them gathered together. , seeming to be communicating quietly.
"Master, they seem to have a close relationship with the monster corpse. They said they have been together for many years and are very reluctant to part with it."
The gentle female voice of the insect mother came through Ziyin.
Jiang Yun was overjoyed and continued to tell them: "Tell them that I can also refine the corpse of the earth fire dragon into a magic weapon, and let the magic weapon accompany them, which can be regarded as a different kind of eternal companionship... Forget it, this Don’t say a single word, so as not to irritate them. In short, they can say whatever they think. It’s easy for everyone to discuss... Just don’t scare them away!”
"I understand, Master, wait a moment."
As the exchange continued, Jiang Yun found that the silver-spotted glowworms began to look at Jiang Yun frequently, and they seemed to be moved. Jiang Yun also maintained a gentle smile.
At this moment, a phantom glowing with red aura flew out from the body of the Earth Fire Dragon. Jiang Yun looked at it calmly and did not take any defensive measures.
The spirits of monster beasts are different from the souls of humans. The spirits of monster beasts themselves have no fighting power at all.
Even if the monsters have reached the eighth level of transformation, their spirits still do not have very strong combat power, and are simply weak compared to Nascent Soul monks of the same level.
The silver-spotted glow bugs screamed with joy at the Earth Fire Dragon Essence and flew towards it quickly, but in the end they passed through the Earth Fire Dragon Essence and could not be touched at all. They couldn't help but let out a sad sound. The cry.
The earth fire dragon spirit looked at the silver-spotted glow bugs with a look of reluctance in its eyes, and said, "You little fools!"
After looking at it reluctantly for a while, it turned its head to Jiang Yun and said, "You seem to be interested in them. Are you interested in hearing about them?"
Jiang Yun politely replied: "I would like to hear the details!"
The Earth Fire Dragon Jingpo's eyes revealed a look of reminiscence, and he began to speak eloquently.
"That happened not long after I was promoted to a high-level monster. That day I found a good kind of spiritual ore. I had a good appetite, so I was in a good mood. When I was eating, I found these little guys not far away. Then There were only eleven of them at that time, not as many as there are now.”
"I remember that they were surrounding a fruit, and it seemed that the outer skin was too hard to open. They were so anxious that some of them seemed to be crying, so I helped them open it."
"I later recognized their identities and suggested to them to follow me from now on, and they agreed. I thought I could use these fools when I was about to survive the thunder tribulation."
"Time flies by so fast. It's been four or five hundred years now... I can't remember clearly. I don't know when it started. I'm used to their existence. They occasionally get lost. I was so anxious that I was relieved when I found it, otherwise I wouldn’t have the appetite to eat the ore.”
"As time goes by, their number increases, but they are not born from eggs. Sometimes when I wake up from sleep, there will be one more. The cultivation and aura are exactly the same, as if they are copied, but I can recognize which one It’s just new.”
"Our days have been like this. Although there have been some crazy monster insects recently, even if three or five high-level monster insects come, they are no match for me."
"It turns out that a month ago, a stupid insect with a black head came to me to fight, and I was seriously injured. Just when I was about to kill it, these little fools surrounded it and emitted a silver light. It actually detoxified the poison."
When Jiang Yun heard this, he looked at the silver spirit insects in surprise.
"It turned out to be a big trap. A lot of high-level bugs with black smoke coming from their heads came to kill them. They were chasing these little guys. Are there twenty or thirty of them? But this little fool seems to be exhausted. I can't turn anything into reality without my strength, so I became like this just to protect them! I am also stupid enough!"
Jiang Yun listened quietly, with a very complicated expression.
The earth fire dragon shouted loudly to the silver spirit worm: "You little fools! I take care of you so that I can use you to block the heavenly tribulation and reduce the power of the transformed heavenly tribulation. Do you know, you fools! Fools! Hundreds You were so stupid a few years ago and you are still so stupid now!”
The silver-spotted glow bugs were still flying around the Earth Fire Dragon Essence, shouting non-stop, as if they were saying something.
"You said you agreed to help? Humph, it's as if I'm begging you to agree...I, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo worn ! ! , but because they are soul tears, they have no entity. After dripping, they turned into light spots and dissipated. The silver spirit insects also let out bursts of mournful sounds.
"Perhaps I am the biggest fool. We are all the same. What will you little guys do without me in the future? What if you get lost, or choke on food, or are attacked by some bugs with low bloodline that cannot recognize you? Bullied, I remember you crying and reporting to me three years ago, saying that a sweet potato you found first was later snatched away by an iron-clad ant. I was stupid enough to exchange the largest sweet potato in the neighborhood for a sweet potato. The armored ants had a fight... Maybe I've been with you for a long time and have become more and more stupid... Wuwuwu~~~You won't be hungry in the future without me. Die."
Jiang Yun and Jin Yun Immortal Worm watched this scene quietly, deeply touched, and Jiang Yun also sighed heavily.
After they cried for a while, the Earth Fire Dragon sobbed and said, "Human, how about we make a deal?"
Jiang Yun said with great interest: "I would like to hear the details!"
"These little guys have recovered a lot of strength and can turn into reality. You can't catch them, but I can persuade these little guys to follow you. You can also refine my corpse and essence into magic weapons. Even if I die, But it’s not useless at all. As long as I take the initiative to cooperate during the refining, your refining of the magic weapon will go more smoothly.”
"Not only will it be smoother, the power of the magic weapon will also be stronger!" Jiang Yun thought, showing a surprised look at the same time, and asked: "What is your request?"
"I hope fellow Taoist will make a Taoist oath and agree to my two requests. First, take them to escape from the underground. Although these little guys can turn into reality, they always get lost. If they fly back to those crazy bugs, they will be in trouble. .”
"I am glad to."
"Secondly, you must ensure that you will treat these little guys well in this life, and you must not harm them, including not forcibly extracting their luck. By the way, you must also let them eat well. It is best to give them some fruits with thinner skins. By the way, They like to eat sour and sweet things, but they don’t like bitter things, and..."
Jiang Yun looked at the dead fire dragon and still thought about these spiritual insects. He couldn't help but sigh that monsters and monsters can have a deep friendship.
After a while, the Earth Fire Dragon finally finished his instructions. His huge dragon eyes looked at Jiang Yun with a look of anticipation.
Jiang Yun looked at the Earth Fire Jiao with a solemn expression, made a strange trick with his hands, and said loudly: "I swear to my Taoist heart, as long as the silver-spotted glowworms are willing to follow me, I will treat these silver-spotted glowworms well in my lifetime." The Spotted Glow Insects will not forcibly extract their luck. If you violate this oath, your cultivation will regress and you will be unable to break through for the rest of your life."
A translucent light appeared around Jiang Yun and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing Jiang Yun's Dao Heart Pledge, the Earth Fire Jiao seemed to feel relieved of his heavy burden, and he let out a series of dragon roars to communicate with the silver-spotted glow bugs.
After a while, it looked at the spirit insects reluctantly and then said to Jiang Yun: "Okay, they will be obedient. Now you can put me away, otherwise I will disappear soon."
Jiang Yun said with a smile: "After being refined into a magic weapon, the power of the magic weapon will become stronger and stronger as the temperature and curing time increases. If one day the magic weapon is powerful enough, it is possible for you, as a weapon spirit, to regain your sanity. Maybe you will have more in the future. A day to talk again."
"hope so!"
Jiang Yun took out a jade bottle magic weapon and put the earth fire dragon essence into it.
At the same time, the silver-spotted glow bugs flew onto Jiang Yun's shoulders and head. Jiang Yun smiled at them, took out the blue sky bead and took them in. At the same time, the mother bug also entered the blue sky bead.
Jiang Yun asked her to serve as a guide for comfort. At the same time, he conveys an order to the queen bee, asking for delicious food to be served to these new partners.
After a while, the silver-spotted glow bugs had flown to the hill of spiritual fruits to eat fiercely. Some of them ate so quickly that they actually choked. The war bees next to them quickly handed over a bamboo cup with spiritual honey water in it. .
Jiang Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief after successfully recovering the silver-spotted glow bug, and now the dust has finally settled. At the same time, I once again felt that Zi Yin was not enough.
Looking at the huge earth fire dragon corpse, Jiang Yun found that his two top-quality storage bags were stuffed with too many things and there was not enough space, so he finally put the earth fire dragon corpse into the blue sky bead. At the same time, I decided to buy a storage bag after returning to the sect.
The huge corpse of the Earth Fire Dragon only occupies a small corner inside the Blue Sky Pearl.
Although the Blue Sky Pearl has only opened up more than 30 acres of spiritual fields, the entire internal space is very huge. It has only opened up a corner so far. If the spiritual veins were enough, it would have opened up an endless spiritual field long ago.
Now that the matter was over, Jiang Yun didn't stay long and released the gold-sniffing rats again to find a rock wall and start digging.
After Jiang Yun walked into the newly dug tunnel, with the yellow light flashing from Jiang Yun's finger, the cave entrance returned to its original state and turned into a rock wall again.
Half a day later, a forty-foot-long centipede with a golden body suddenly emerged from a rock wall. It raised its head with black smoke and smelled it. Then its eyes turned to a large pool of blood on the ground, hundreds of insects. His feet moved quickly and he soon came to the blood stain.
I saw the front and back ends of the golden centipede's body raised high as it glanced around at something. After a while, it suddenly made a weird cry, and two golden lights shot out from both ends.
"Zizzizi~~~" The two golden lights were like two golden lightsabers, cutting deep marks on the surrounding cave walls. Countless rock pillars were cut off and fell to the ground, and the entire cave began to shake.
After a while, the golden centipede seemed to have finished venting its anger and dug its head into the ground. Soon the whole body disappeared into the ground.
Not long after the Golden Centipede left, a large number of rock and soil pillars collapsed and fell from the top, and soon the underground space was completely buried.
