After an unknown amount of time, Shi Yue slowly opened his eyes.

As soon as he woke up, Shi Yue noticed changes in himself. His consciousness was actually much sharper than before.

He was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed a look of ecstasy. He did not expect that killing insects could temper his spiritual consciousness.

You must know that the spiritual consciousness of an immortal cultivator is generally fixed. The spiritual consciousness increases with the improvement of the realm. The stronger the spiritual consciousness of an immortal cultivator, the sharper the senses and the more magical weapons that can be controlled.

.

Although the increase in spiritual consciousness from killing insects this time is negligible, if the insecticide is carried out for a long time, the increase in spiritual consciousness will definitely be considerable.

As soon as he woke up, Shi Yue left and walked out of the stone house.

He walked around the spiritual field and found that the yellow spots on the tobacco and sun grass had disappeared, but two questions were placed in front of Shi Yue.

"Where did the scale insects come from? Can't find a single scale insect in the three acres of spiritual land?"

When Shi Yue looked up scale insects, he learned that scale insects are oviparous. The eggs of scale insects are very small. In order to increase the survival rate of the larvae, female scale insects usually lay their eggs in the seeds and branches of plants so that the larvae can hatch as soon as they hatch.

There is something to eat.

He guessed that there should be scale insects' eggs in the seeds of tobacco and sun grass, because the time loss in the mysterious space is ten times that of the outside world. When Shi Yue discovered the scale insects, they may have reproduced for several generations.

, there are a lot of them, if they had been discovered later, they would have probably eaten up all the elixirs in the spiritual field.

As for whether there are still scale insects in the spiritual field, Shi Yue can guarantee that there must be scale insects. The three-acre spiritual field is so big, there must be fish that have slipped through the net, but the number is just small!

Killing all the scale insects in the elixir only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. If you want to cure the root cause, you must kill all the scale insects. As long as one scale insect escapes, the scale insects may come back.

Shi Yue thought about it and exited the mysterious space.

He rummaged around on the wooden shelf in Master Zhou's basement and found a copy of "One Hundred Essentials of Pest Control".

"One Hundred Essentials for Killing Pests", from the name of this book, you will know that this book records methods of killing insects.

Shi Yue read it word by word, for fear of missing something.

This book "100 Pest Killing Essentials" lists hundreds of pests and states dozens of ways to kill them. The killing methods are different according to the physical characteristics of each pest.

Larger pests can be killed with spells, such as fireball, wind blade, water arrow, etc. Small pests such as scale insects must be killed with Gengjin Qimang, but there is a way to kill them.

It is effective against many pests, that is to kill them with insects.

Use the power of spiritual insects to kill pests in the spiritual fields. This is not only time-consuming but also highly efficient. You only need to give the spiritual insects an order to kill the pests, and they will act accordingly.

"One Hundred Essential Pesticides" lists a variety of spiritual insects that can kill pests, including spiritual bees, spiritual butterflies, spiritual ants, etc. Among them, spiritual bees are the first choice.

In addition to killing pests, smart bees can also eat pollen and nectar. The nectar can sometimes be prepared and stored into honey. At the same time, when smart bees collect pollen between flowers, they will drop some pollen onto other flowers, causing plant damage.

Cross-pollination can increase the yield of Linggu Lingguo.

Seeing this, Shi Yue was a little moved. The spirit bee can not only kill pests, but can also brew honey. It is indeed the best choice for killing pests.

Shi Yue put the "100 Keys to Killing Insects" back on the wooden shelf, walked out of the basement quickly, and flew towards the Deacon Hall with his royal weapon.

After arriving at the Deacon Hall, Shi Yue went straight to the third floor.

"Senior brother, do you have the larvae of the spiritual bee?" Shi Yue walked to a counter and asked the deacon disciple behind the counter.

"There are several kinds, such as the Soul Devouring Bee, the Silver Spider Bee, the Five Light Bee, and the Yin Luo Bee. I wonder which one I want, junior brother?" the deacon disciple said with a smile.

"I want to buy some to catch pests in the spirit fields. I wonder which kind of spirit bees are suitable?" Shi Yue raised his brows after hearing this and asked.

"These types of spirit bees can all catch pests, but they have their own strengths. In addition to collecting pollen and nectar for food, the spirit-eating bees also hunt other spiritual insects and pests; the silver spider bees can weave spider webs and use the spider webs to kill pests.

; The Wuguang Bee is relatively large and has a large food intake; the Yinluo Bee has a gentle personality and a slow reproduction speed. The eggs of these four types of spirit bees, except for the Silver Spider Bee, which contributes one ten points, the other three spirit bees have

It’s five contribution points for one, which one do you want, junior brother?” the deacon disciple introduced word by word.

After listening to the introduction by the deacon's disciple, Shi Yue's face showed a look of thoughtfulness.

In addition to using contribution points to exchange for things, you can also use spiritual stones to purchase them. The price is just one or two spiritual stones a little more expensive than the ones on the market, so it is naturally more cost-effective to use contribution points to exchange them.

Shi Yue has accumulated more than a hundred contribution points for many years. The contribution points exchanged by the Silver Spider Bee are higher and are not within the scope of Shi Yue's consideration. As a result, he can only accumulate more than one hundred contribution points between the Soul Devouring Bee, the Five Light Bee, and the Yin Spider Bee.

Choose one of the three types of spiritual bees, Luo Bee.

"Well, I want six Soul Devouring Bee eggs." Shi Yue pondered for a moment and then said.

The deacon disciple nodded, took down a cyan wooden box from the shelf behind him, and handed it to Shi Yue.

Shi Yue opened it and saw six white insect eggs the size of mung beans placed inside. The six eggs exuded faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.

He nodded with satisfaction, marked out thirty contribution points, put the wooden box in his arms, turned around and left.

After leaving the Deacon Hall, Shi Yue went to the Scripture Collection Pavilion and copied a jade slip recording the taming of spiritual insects.

Returning to Uncle Zhou's cave, Shi Yue immediately took out a jade slip and placed it between his eyebrows.

Not long after, he took off the jade slip and took out the cyan wooden box from his arms.

With a thought in Shi Yue's mind, he appeared in the mysterious space.

According to the jade slip, insect eggs need to hatch in a place with abundant spiritual energy. The more abundant spiritual energy, the faster the insect eggs will hatch.

The aura of the mysterious space is not much different from Uncle Zhou's residence, but the time is ten times longer than that of the outside world. Putting the eggs in the mysterious space to hatch will definitely shorten the incubation time.

He walked into the stone house, took out more than ten spiritual stones, and placed them on the stone bed, intending to put the insect eggs on the stone bed to hatch.

An astonishing scene appeared. When Shi Yue placed more than ten spiritual stones on the stone bed, the more than ten milky white spiritual stones turned into gray-white at a speed visible to the naked eye. Obviously, this was the spiritual energy in the spiritual stones being absorbed.

Dry signs.

"Can this... stone bed absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone?" Seeing this scene, Shi Yue was shocked, and his face was full of disbelief.

If that's the case, wouldn't the stone bed be able to absorb the magic power in his body?

Thinking of this, Shi Yue's face became uncertain.

He thought for a moment, then took out another spiritual stone and placed it on the stone bed.

Almost in the blink of an eye, this spiritual stone quickly turned gray-white.

Seeing this scene, Shi Yue's expression changed and he took a few steps back, fearing that the mana in his body would be sucked dry by the stone bed.

Shi Yue thought about it carefully. He had slept in the stone house before, and his magic power had not been reduced at all. In other words, the stone bed would not absorb the magic power in his body at all. The stone bed would only absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone.

Shi Yue thought for a moment and walked out of the stone house quickly. He was surprised to find that the spiritual energy in the air seemed to be a little more abundant than before. Although the increase was very small, he was still aware of it.

"Can the stone bed absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone to make the spiritual energy in the mysterious space more abundant?" Shi Yue murmured to himself in a low voice, with an excited look on his face.

He hesitated for a moment, took out ten spiritual stones, stood outside the stone house, and threw the ten spiritual stones on the stone bed.

The ten milky-white spirit stones soon turned gray-white again.

Shi Yue could feel that the spiritual energy in the air was indeed a little more abundant. Although the increase was not a lot, it was enough to prove his guess.

"If the spiritual energy in the mysterious space becomes more abundant, wouldn't it take less time for the spiritual grain elixir planted in the mysterious space to mature?"

Shi Yue was very excited when he thought of this.

Next, Shi Yue did several experiments and found that if the spiritual stone was thrown into the stone house, the stone house would absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone, thereby increasing the intensity of the spiritual energy in the mysterious space. If the spiritual stone was thrown on the ground outside the stone house,

Nothing happens.

In other words, if you want to increase the intensity of the spiritual energy in the mysterious space, you only need to throw the spiritual stones into the stone house.

This discovery made Shi Yue very excited.

After the excitement, Shi Yue regained his composure. Since the stone house would absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, he naturally could not place the insect eggs in the stone house to hatch.

He took out a porcelain bowl and cut his arm with a knife. The bright red blood immediately dripped down his arm and into the porcelain bowl.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Yue began to mutter something. Not long after, the spells in his mouth stopped, and several spells were struck into the blood in the porcelain bowl.

The blood in the porcelain bowl suddenly started to rotate, automatically suspended in mid-air, and after a tumbling surge, it turned into eighteen bloody runes the size of fingernails.

Shi Yue took out the cyan wooden box from his arms, opened the wooden box, reached out and pointed at the six insect eggs in the wooden box, and said softly: "Go."

As soon as he finished speaking, eighteen blood-colored runes flew quickly towards the insect eggs in the wooden box, and three blood-colored runes were submerged in each insect egg.

Seeing this, Shi Yue nodded, took out an empty jar, put ten spiritual stones into the jar, and then put the cyan wooden box into the jar.

After doing all this, Shi Yue covered the mouth of the altar with a piece of tulle and placed the stall outside the stone house.

Because the scale insects had not been completely killed, Shi Yue did not plant spiritual grains in the vacant one acre of spiritual fields. He walked around the two acres of spiritual fields and carefully inspected each elixir plant.

Sure enough, as Shi Yue expected, the scale insects were not extinct, and there were still many fish that slipped through the net. Seeing these fish that slipped through the net, Shi Yue would not be polite. He used the "Geng Jin Jue" to release the Geng Jin energy.

Kill all the scale insects you encounter.

Shi Yue stayed in the mysterious space for ten days. Most of the time was spent patrolling the spiritual fields, activating the Gengjin energy to kill all the scale insects he found, and the rest of the time was spent practicing.
