The newly hatched Sky-Eating Insects, whose back shell has not yet completely hardened, are already showing their ferocious nature, and will bite each other mercilessly without mercy.
Although it is still small, the claws and mouthparts of the Sky-eating Insect look very sharp. With a swing of its claws, deep cuts were made on the stone next to it; with one bite, the stone was crushed like flour.
.
Whenever they bump into each other, a faint purple-black light will emit from their bodies, and their heads will become more ferocious.
You Yan watched with great interest. Because they could not be discovered, she and Liu Qinghuan hid themselves, but they wanted to run over and watch closely.
Liu Qinghuan ignored her, but let go of his consciousness and searched the entire space.
After a moment, he was slightly surprised and asked: "You said before that only a dozen or so Sky-Eating Insects hatched?"
"Yes...isn't it wrong?" You Yan was confused.
"Well, there are still a group hiding in the stone mountain." Liu Qinghuan said: "There are probably close to a hundred of them."
"So many!" You Yan exclaimed.
"Is it a lot? The number of empty-eating insect eggs I brought back was more than ten times this amount!" Liu Qinghuan said: "Now all the eggs have hatched, and even the egg shells have been eaten clean by themselves. In the end, only
There are more than a hundred and ten left."
As a group, this number is really small, and I don't know if it can form a new group.
"The dozen or so you see are probably the Space Devouring Insects that joined the fight for the Insect King. The others are hiding underground - it's hard for them to dig such a deep and complicated cave in just a few days!"
While the two were talking, the two sky-devouring insects finally decided the winner, but to their surprise, the smaller one actually won!
I saw it erecting its back shell, vibrating its wings loudly, and making a rather harsh cry.
The loser had a large piece of his back torn off, his wings were also broken, and he ran away in despair dragging his remaining legs.
The winner flew majestically towards the nearest cave entrance, preparing to start his next journey.
The entire battle for the Insect King lasted for several days, and Liu Qinghuan watched from beginning to end until the final winner was decided.
Although scarred, the new insect king was in high spirits. He rushed underground with great momentum, found the largest cave, and drove out the other sky-devouring insects.
Next, a shocking scene happened. The new insect king was seen spitting out long purple threads and wrapping himself up in circles.
"Is this... preparing to transform into a mother insect?" Liu Qinghuan touched his chin: "It seems we have to wait a few more days!"
On the side, You Yan looked at him with doubt on his face: "Are you sure you can do it? Didn't you say that the Sky Devouring Insect cannot be tamed?"
"Yeah, but I checked the classics carefully and found that those who failed to be domesticated..."
"How are those people?"
"Their spiritual thoughts are probably not as strong as mine!"
You Yan was dumbfounded. She wanted to refute but found that there seemed to be no way to refute, because even she had to admit that there was no doubt that Liu Qinghuan's spiritual thoughts were powerful, and there was no one who was stronger than him!
"So what? If you have a strong spiritual sense, you can make the Sky Devouring Insect listen to you..." Youhu suddenly paused: "This, it seems that you can really..."
As long as the mind is powerful enough, it can indeed control the actions of others through coercive means.
"You want to control the Insect King by force?"
"No!" Liu Qinghuan smiled and shook his head: "How can I have the time to spend my time controlling one insect and managing the insect swarm every day? What else can I do?"
"Then what are you going to do?"
"You will know when the time comes!" Liu Qinghuan said: "Yue Zhi later told me that he recalled that there once was an ancient family in the ancient Shenxu Continent that specialized in taming insects, and they successfully tamed the Sky-Eating Insects."
You Yan couldn't help but look sideways: "So you think you can do it too?"
"Try it!" Liu Qinghuan said, and found that the space-devouring insects that had been driven out were not idle either. They had already begun to expand the cave, build new caves, and serve as guards. They were working together in a very orderly manner.
There were even a dozen Sky-Eating Insects that left their nest and divided into several small teams to explore in several directions.
"The intelligence of these sky-devouring insects is really not low!" Liu Qinghuan sighed: "They started to explore the surrounding environment so quickly!"
He remembered something again and said to Youhu: "When you catch monster beasts from the small cave sky and let them come here, try to catch as many ferocious beasts as possible. You don't have to catch too many, as long as they can satisfy the daily food of the insect swarm. When you turn around and leave,
After Long Yuan, we will complete the group of monster beasts in the insect space."
You Yan rolled her eyes and responded casually.
Liu Qinghuan "looked" at the insect king and found that it had completely wrapped itself up and became like a cocoon, motionless and motionless.
"It seems that we have to wait for it to break out of the cocoon before we can proceed to the next step." Liu Qinghuan said: "Youhu, you continue to keep an eye on it here, and tell me if you find anything. The alchemy furnace cannot be left alone for a long time. I have to go back and take care of it!"
Youhu waved at him, as if he wanted to leave quickly, so he left the insect space and returned to refining the elixir.
This time he was refining the Nine-turn White Jade Pill, which is a top-quality elixir for women to beautify their beauty. It is also difficult to find in the outside world. Every time it appears, it attracts many female cultivators to compete for it.
As for why he, a male cultivator, would refine this kind of elixir, it was actually because he was familiar with the refining method of the Nine-Revolution Pill and was preparing to refine the Nine-Revolution Jade Clear Pill in the future.
When he went to Yunzhong Immortal Land to look for the Immortal Root of Good Fortune, he found a fairy grass called Taiyin Grass in the ruins of the Ancient Alchemy Sect. The Nine-turn Jade Clear Pill refined from Taiyin Grass is truly capable of making people suffer thousands of calamities.
It is extremely difficult to refine an immortal-level elixir that does not fall and has an eternal soul.
Therefore, Liu Qinghuan has been collecting the necessary spiritual materials over the years and making corresponding preparations. One of them is to be familiar with the nine-turn alchemy method.
Time passed by, and it was more than three months ago. The person who called him that day was Fubao. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Master, come on, come on, there is movement in the cocoon!"
Liu Qinghuan hurriedly put down the spiritual materials, went out and let Yue Jian watch the fire, then turned around and entered the insect space.
Sure enough, the cocoon lying in the underground nest had undergone a big change. Not only was it dozens of times larger than before, the purple-black cocoon skin had completely dried out and hardened, and a slender crack appeared on it.
In the cocoon, the new insect king has completed the process of transforming into an insect mother, and his appearance is completely different. In addition to becoming larger and fatter, there are also several rows of cold eyes on his head!
However, its biggest change was not its appearance, but that its spiritual thoughts had become very powerful. Although it could not keep up with the adult insect mother Liu Qinghuan had seen before, it was still many times stronger than before.
The time has finally arrived!
Liu Qinghuan suppressed her excitement and let Fu Bao guard us while she sneaked into the insect nest.
At this time, the insect mother is at her most exhausted and weakest, and she is so hungry that there are stars in her eyes.
The smell of food kept coming, which was specially prepared by the insect swarm for it these days, and was placed not far from the cocoon.
So it struggled to tear open the cocoon and struggled to climb out. Unexpectedly, as soon as it poked its head out, it saw a person standing there.
The insect mother screamed in fright, then became furious, and a strong dark purple light emitted from her body!
