Chapter 161 Silver-threaded Praying Mantis
“The fourth-grade formation Thousand Illusionary Clouds and Smoke Formation, and the third-grade spiritual plant are extraordinary. It’s not in vain that I have carefully cultivated you for so long.”
Lu Xuan looked at the array disk hanging upside down with clouds and smoke in his hand, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He was worried about the protection problem of the small courtyard in Jianmen Town, but he did not expect to be solved so quickly by the light group reward brought by Huanyan Luoguo.
In the small courtyard, there are currently three kinds of spiritual plants planted, namely the third-grade ghost-faced stone mushroom, the third-grade thorn bone, and the fourth-grade hundred-eyed magic tree. Each plant is extremely precious and cannot be missed.
And my focus has to be on the sect, and I can only go there occasionally to take a look. Under such circumstances, it is inevitable to worry.
Although Jianmen Town is not far from the Tianjian Sect, there is no need to worry about any evil beasts invading. Most of the monks in the town also have close relationships with the disciples of the Tianjian Sect. However, people are unpredictable. If they have not seen the courtyard for a long time, Master, it’s hard to guarantee that someone will not be malicious.
Now, with the Thousand Illusion Clouds and Smoke Formation, which combines the illusion formation, the confusion formation, and the killing formation, Lu Xuan no longer has to worry about this problem.
He put the formation disk and the phantom smoke fruit into his storage bag. The spirit fruit was originally intended to be swallowed by the cloud-walking lynx, but considering that its pair of pupils were only good at identifying evil spirits, it took the magic fruit to enhance its illusion ability. Yanluoguo had little effect, so I gave up.
In the next few days, he spent most of the time in the cave, cultivating spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts. From time to time, he would go to Qianlong Lake to feed the remaining dragons and pythons.
Linghe did not accept his spirit stones every time he went there. After this happened frequently, Lu Xuan had to give up the idea and bring some ordinary spirit fruits for daily hospitality as a token of his gratitude.
The remaining time is used to practice martial arts. Although it may not be as good as a firefly grass after several months of practice, it can improve the cultivation level to some extent.
My life was very leisurely, especially after I had just picked the third-grade Fantasy Smoke Luoguo and got the fourth-grade Thousand Fantasy Clouds and Smoke Formation, I felt even more contented and a little more satisfied.
“Junior Brother Lu, are you at home? I received a monster eye task from you before, so I came to hand it over to you.”
A cold female voice came from outside the yard.
“Yes.”
Lu Xuan responded and hurried over to open the courtyard door.
A female editor with elegant temperament stopped in front of the door.
The female nun entered the yard, found a random wooden post and sat down, and took out three slender transparent bottles from the storage bag.
The bottle contains light green liquid, which is soaked with all kinds of monster eyes. Each eye is full of life, as if it had just been cut out of the monster’s head.
“I went out this time to get fourteen complete monster eye pupils, ten of which were from first-grade monsters, and four from second-grade monsters. Not long after each one was removed, they were replaced with special The preservation of spiritual liquid should be able to meet Junior Brother Lu’s requirements.”
The elegant female cultivator said slowly.
Lu Xuan took the bottle, penetrated it with his spiritual sense, felt the vividness of his eyes, and confirmed that what the female cultivator said was true.
“This pupil is quite special, originating from the one-eyed rhinoceros of the second-grade monster. It has amazing brute strength and also has certain illusion abilities.”
The female cultivator saw Lu Xuan looking at a huge deep black eye in the bottle and explained aloud.
Hearing this, Lu Xuan nodded slightly.
“Senior sister, according to the requirements of the mission, each first-grade monster’s pupils have ten spiritual stones. The three second-grade monster’s pupils are relatively ordinary. I am willing to purchase them at the price of thirty spiritual stones each.
The pupils of this one-eyed rhinoceros are a little bit special, fifty spirit stones, what do you think, senior sister? ”
The Qingya female cultivator hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
“Thank you so much, Junior Brother Lu.”
These monsters were originally for her to hunt for another mission, so taking off the eye pupils was just a matter of convenience. Although Lu Xuan’s price was a little low, it was already pretty good to earn such a large amount of extra money.
Lu Xuan handed the two hundred and forty spirit stones to the Qingya female cultivator and took the dozen monster eyes from her.
“The cost of planting high-grade spiritual plants is a bit high. The fourth-grade Baipu Mumu cost me more than two hundred spiritual stones.”
“The firefly grass is still real and can grow in a spiritual environment.”
“But high-grade has the benefits of high-grade. These early investments are nothing compared to the value of the spiritual plant itself, not to mention, I still have the light group reward!”
After the female cultivator left, Lu Xuan returned to the room, looked at the dozen pupils floating in the light green liquid, and couldn’t help but sigh.
He put all the pupils into the raw bag to ensure their freshness to the greatest extent.
“Junior brother Lu, are you at home? I found a kind of insect eggs and larvae for you.”
Half a day later, when Lu Xuan was inspecting the spiritual field, another deep voice came from outside.
Lu Xuan opened the courtyard door, and a tall monk who had perfected his Qi training was standing at the door.
“I wonder what kind of insect eggs or larvae my brother found?”
After welcoming the tall monk into the house, Lu Xuan brewed a pot of spiritual tea and asked the monk.
“Junior Brother Lu, I have put in a lot of effort this time. You also know that demon insects protect eggs and larvae extremely well. It is more than ten times harder to find them than to find adults.”
“I stayed in the Red Miasma Valley for a few days before I found two species, one was the first-grade black beetle, and the other was the second-grade demon worm larvae, the silver-threaded mantis.”
The tall monk took a sip of spiritual tea, said to Lu Xuan, and took out two things from the storage bag.
A bottle contains several insect eggs, which are oblate, black and shiny, like small pebbles.
Another bottle contained two mantis larvae, about half a finger long, with white as jade bodies, their forelimbs looked like a pair of knives, and a thin silver line could be vaguely seen on their backs.
“The eggs are black beetles, a first-grade demon insect. There are seven eggs. They usually live near strange rocks. When mature, they have good defense capabilities and can be used as materials for refining certain pills.”
“These two larvae are silver-threaded mantises. Find the second-grade monster insects at Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. They are extremely fast and have strong attack capabilities.”
The tall monk introduced Lu Xuan in detail.
Lu Xuan nodded. I don’t know if this black beetle is a molting insect, but as long as it is raised, it will have a symbiotic effect with the black insect vine.
As for the silver-threaded mantis, it perfectly meets the needs of the black insect vine, and the two can grow together.
Of course, one thing that has to be said is that this silver-threaded mantis looks quite pleasing to the eye, and its appearance is considered to be the first among the insects he has seen and known.
“Senior brother, I plan to purchase these black beetles at the price of six spiritual stones each, and the silver-threaded mantis larvae at the price of thirty-five spiritual stones each. What do you think?”
Lu Xuan’s bid was already considered reasonable. The tall monk didn’t care much about the gain or loss of spiritual stones and nodded in agreement.
Lu Xuan took out one hundred and twelve spiritual stones and handed them to the tall monk.
“Junior Brother Lu, please be happy. If you find any eggs or larvae next time, I will come over and bother you, Junior Brother.”
The tall monk took the spirit stone and stood up to say goodbye.
