The sixth volume of the dance of demons 1241 The strange green worm
"If it's just like this, it's not impossible for me to lend you the knowledge insect, but I have to watch over the whole process." Liu Ming saw that the Qingling clan leader was willing to swear by his inner demon, and most of the worries in his heart disappeared, and he considered it.
After a moment, he spoke.
"Of course, fellow Taoist, please come with me." Seeing Liu Ming agree, Chief Qingling was overjoyed. After swearing another oath in front of him, he turned and walked towards the back of the hall.
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and followed suit.
The two soon walked into a somewhat winding corridor. The ground and surroundings were smooth and seemed to lead deep underground.
Liu Ming discovered several forked roads along the way. After scanning, it seemed that each forked road was connected to several secret rooms, which seemed to be used to raise various spiritual insects. From time to time, several people in green robes could be seen.
The monks from the Qing Ling clan were going in and out.
Speaking of which, this tribe is really sparsely populated. Walking from the entrance of the cave, Liu Ming didn't find many Qingling tribe members.
The two of them walked along the corridor for about a quarter of an hour and arrived at a stone room at the end.
There are images of strange insects carved on the left and right sides of the door of the stone chamber. The one on the left looks like an unusually ferocious golden beetle, while the door on the right is a black silkworm, which looks ordinary.
The only special thing is that there is a white pattern on the top of the black silkworm's head that looks like a human skull.
Patriarch, could this silkworm on the right be..." Liu Ming's heart moved and he asked.
"Fellow Daoist Liu is indeed very sharp. Yes, this black silkworm is the skeleton silkworm, the holy insect of our tribe. As for the other golden beetle, it is another kind of holy insect of our tribe, but you don't need to know that, fellow Taoist." Chief Qingling
He said calmly.
Liu Ming was not interested in the other holy insect. With a quick glance, he looked at the skeleton silkworm carefully.
Chief Qing Ling muttered something in his mouth. He waved his hand and shot out a black light, which disappeared into the stone gate.
The stone door made a soft sound, and a faint black light appeared on the surface. After a moment, it dissipated, and the stone door slowly opened inwards.
Patriarch Qing Ling stepped in. Liu Ming's eyes flashed and he quickly followed.
The stone chamber is quite spacious, with a size of twenty or thirty feet, but the light is a bit dim. There are only a few stones inlaid on the top that emit a faint green light.
However, with the eyesight of Patriarch Qing Ling and Liu Ming, they can see clearly even without the slightest light source.
Liu Ming glanced around, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The stone chamber looks very well-protected from the outside, but it is unexpectedly simple inside. The walls are not even polished, and uneven stones can be seen from time to time. In addition, there are many strange plants planted around it.
The air in the stone room exudes a faint fragrance, which smells very comfortable.
"This is the insect breeding room of our Qingling clan. These plants can emit the smell that insect monsters like." The Qingling clan leader explained.
Liu Ming glanced around a few times and nodded.
There was a flat stone platform on the ground in the center of the stone room. Chief Qingling walked to the stone platform, muttered something in his mouth, and waved his hand to create a spell.
The stone platform made a rumbling sound. It cracked from the middle, revealing a dark hole.
After a moment, a translucent square box rose up from below.
Chief Qingling waved his hand and cast a spell, and an entrance opened above the box.
"This thing is an insect breeding box. Fellow Daoist Liu, I'm about to start." The leader of the Qingling tribe moved his hand, and a ball of green light held up his worms and flew into the square box.
Seeing this, Liu Ming also waved his hand, and a roll of faint black energy sent the consciousness insects on his body into the box, and the entrance of the box closed instantly.
Patriarch Qingling's face became solemn, and he waved his hands repeatedly, shooting out magic spells one after another. Some of them fell into the box, some flew to the several glowing bluestones on the top of the stone chamber, and some of them shot directly into the ground.
Following the movements of Patriarch Qinglin, a faint green light began to appear in the entire stone chamber, and a group of light blue mist gradually emerged from the box where the two transformation insects were. After a while, a group of light blue mist slowly appeared on the surface of the box.
Mysterious cyan demon clan inscriptions quickly covered the entire surface of the box.
The cyan mist inside the box became thicker and thicker. Under the mist, the two Consciousness Insects both showed signs of being agitated. The two Consciousness Insects who were originally peaceful seemed to be aware of each other's existence.
"Zhizhi..." After chirping a few times at each other, the two transformation insects began to squirm and slowly approached.
When Liu Ming saw this scene, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Regardless of whether it is an insect-type monster or a beast-type monster, the most difficult problem is mating and reproducing offspring.
Each kind of monster has its own breeding period. The secret technique used by the Qingling clan leader actually stimulates the mating of the beasts, and it has no side effects. It is really extraordinary.
…
After a day and a night, the door of the stone chamber slowly opened, and Liu Ming and the Qingling clan leader walked out side by side.
There was a hint of excitement on Patriarch Qingling's face. He held a transparent cylindrical jar in his hand, which contained two finger-sized, milky-white insect eggs.
Liu Ming didn't seem to be in such a good mood. He frowned slightly. The male worm was lying quietly on his palm at the moment, looking a little weak.
He turned his hand, took out a small green bottle, poured out a black pill like a bean, and fed it to Hua Shi Chong to eat.
After taking an elixir, the aura on the body of the Hua Shiworm immediately recovered a little. He moved his body and let out a low chirp, seeming to like the elixir quite a bit.
"This is a spirit-feeding pill handed down from ancient times. It is suitable for most spirit insects. Unfortunately, the cost of refining it is too high, and there are not many of them in our clan. If you take more than half of this bottle of elixir, your Taoist friend's
Transforming consciousness insects should be able to make up for the loss of vitality." Chief Qingling explained.
Liu Ming nodded and moved his hand to put away the knowledge insect.
"Chief Gu, two insect eggs are now in your hands. I wonder if..." He glanced at the Qingling clan and said lightly.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist. We, the Qingling Clan, will keep our word. I have already ordered people to fetch the skeleton silkworms. They should be waiting in the hall now." The leader of the Qingling Clan put away the transparent jar in his hand and said.
"That's good." Liu Ming nodded easily.
The two quickly arrived at the hall. In the hall, Lan Si and Elder Gu from yesterday were already here. Elder Gu also held a palm-sized dark green stone box in his hand.
"Clan Chief." Elder Gu looked at Clan Chief Qingling.
Patriarch Qing Ling nodded, and Elder Gu understood, handed the stone box in his hand to Liu Ming, and said, "Fellow Daoist Liu, inside is the skeleton silkworm you want."
"Thank you." Liu Ming showed a hint of joy on his face. He took the stone box and opened the lid. Lying quietly inside was a black silkworm seven or eight inches long and as thick as a finger. It had a white skull pattern on its head, which was the same as before.
The one at the door of the breeding room is the same as the skeleton silkworm.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, I don't know what you want this skeleton silkworm to do, but this silkworm is our clan's holy insect, so please use it properly." Elder Gu stared at Liu Ming and solemnly asked.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me." Liu Ming glanced at Elder Gu in surprise and said calmly.
He closed the stone box and put it away carefully.
The Skeleton Silkworm can be regarded as a holy insect by the Qingling clan, so it must have its own unique ability, but he has no intention of exploring it. He only wants this Skeleton Silkworm to refine the soul-sucking Gu.
"Chief Gu, since the transaction has been completed, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll take my leave now. Fellow Daoist Lan's transaction should also be completed, right?" Liu Ming bowed his hand to Chief Qingling, and then said to Lan Si beside him.
.
At this moment, he couldn't wait to return to Luo City and refine the soul-sucking Gu.
Lan Si nodded, her twelve swift beetles had already been selected. If not for waiting for Liu Ming, she would have left yesterday.
The two of them bowed to the Qingling clan leader, turned around and walked outside.
Liu Ming stopped when he heard this, turned around and looked over.
"That's it. I wonder if you can sell the Red Flame Pill to me for free. I'm willing to pay 20 million spiritual stones." Elder Gu looked at Liu Ming expectantly and said.
He doesn't have much longevity left, but he has been unable to break through to the Celestial Realm. The Red Flame Pill is too important to him and he cannot let it go no matter what.
"Elder Gu thinks that pills like Red Flame Pill can be measured by spiritual stones? Besides, I have no shortage of spiritual stones." Liu Ming said with a half-smile.
What he said was true. Over the years, he had made a lot of spiritual stones by cooperating with the Lanmu clan to make alchemy. It was only tens of millions, but he really didn't like it.
Although the Red Flame Pill can only be taken once per person, rather than selling it, it is better to keep it and give it to people around you to take when they break through the Celestial Realm in the future.
Elder Gu looked suffocated. He used these words to block Liu Ming's mouth yesterday. Now he opened his mouth and was speechless.
"Since Fellow Daoist Liu doesn't like mere spirit stones, I wonder how our tribe can exchange some precious strange insects with you. Since Fellow Daoist has raised a knowledge insect, he should be more interested in other spiritual insects than other spiritual insects." Clan Leader Qingling
He suddenly spoke.
When Liu Ming heard this, he became silent.
Elder Gu glanced at Patriarch Qingling gratefully, waved his hand, took out a white bone jade slip, and handed it to Liu Ming.
"What is included here is a list of spirit insects that our tribe uses to exchange with foreign tribes. There are corresponding notes behind each spirit insect, recording the abilities of these spirit insects. Fellow Daoist Liu, please take a look at it first." Elder Gu said with a smile on his face.
A hint of a smile.
Liu Ming showed a look of interest on his face, reached out to take the jade slip, and penetrated it with his spiritual consciousness.
The Phantom Insect is ranked 21st on the list of Green Insects. When it reaches adulthood, its strength is comparable to that of a monk in the crystallization stage. The special gas it sprays can cause hallucinations, and it has a miraculous effect on monks in the True Alchemy Realm and below.
Cold Crystal Ant, ranked twenty-fifth on the Green Insect List, is good at flying and is a large-scale combat spiritual insect. It sprays special cold air from its mouth and can freeze everything.
The mountain-eating earthworm is ranked 30th on the green insect list. It is an earth-attribute spiritual insect that is extremely sensitive to the aura of heaven and earth and is good at hunting for treasures.
…
Strange spiritual insects suddenly appeared in front of Liu Ming's eyes. They were all things he had never heard of before, which opened his eyes.
After a while, his consciousness withdrew from the jade slip and played with it twice in his hand.
Elder Gu felt a little uneasy when he saw Liu Ming's expression.
He secretly guessed that Liu Ming was not interested in the spiritual insects on the jade slips. (To be continued...) i1292
