Chapter 185 Friends (first update)
Five days later!
Early in the morning, near the Insect Valley, there was a thick mist.
Su Jie appeared here. There were net bags on the ground, which were full of fresh human-faced moths that Thousand-Handed Centipede had just caught from the Insect Valley, and they were all jumping around.
Whoops!
Another whistling sound came from the sky. Thousand-handed centipedes quickly descended from the sky like burning their buttocks. Inside the special net pockets held by pale corpse hands, there were another batch of newly captured human-faced moths, wildly baring their teeth and claws, mouthing. Vomiting acid.
"Eat."
Su Jie patted the shell of the Thousand-Handed Centipede, which had been gnawed by human-faced moths. Feeling distressed, he took out a low-grade Gu insect from his insect bag and threw it to the Thousand-Hand Centipede.
The Thousand-Handed Centipede immediately opened its mouth, bit the Gu insect, and chewed it without waiting for the opponent to struggle, enjoying it beautifully.
After eating and wiping it clean, the Thousand-Handed Centipede took off again under Su Jie's instructions, flew into the sky and entered the territory of the human-faced moths, and continued to collect and catch the human-faced moths.
Su Jie then began to use the Body Insect Concentration Technique to turn these human-faced moths, which were still wild just now, into his own Gu Insects.
Su Jie performed this operation with ease, and soon the man-faced moth recognized Su Jie as the King of Insects.
After removing the net bag, human-faced moths fluttered their wings and took off, circling intimately around Su Jie.
This kind of work has been going on for several days. After returning to the mountain gate from the forest to recuperate, Su Jie came to the Bug Valley to catch insects.
At this time, the number of human-faced moths in Su Jie's insect bag had reached over two hundred thousand.
The spiritual power of the Zixiao Thunder Body was extremely abundant, and the number of human-faced moths controlled by Su Jie also benefited from this, and the number was greatly increased.
However, there are only a large number of human-faced moths now, and the low-grade human-faced moths and the middle-grade human-faced moths are basically all dead.
When fighting Du Shaochang, these leading brothers were at the forefront, so they suffered the most losses.
Therefore, although the number of insect clouds has increased, the combat effectiveness has actually dropped a lot.
Su Jie needs to go back to the Gu Insect Breeding Base, cultivate them well, and evolve some low-grade human-faced moths and mid-grade human-faced moths to regain strong combat effectiveness.
And Su Jie suffered more than that because of that battle. Now, his sword-raising gourd, including the White Bone Tiansha Sword, only has a few dozen flying swords left. The number of ghosts in the summoning banner has also increased from before. The number of animals dropped sharply from more than 10,000 to 4,000.
It can be said that although Su Jie won the battle with Du Shaochang, the price he paid was extremely heavy, and his net worth shrank significantly.
Even if he retrieves 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones from Du Shaochang, Su Jie may still be at a loss in actual terms. After all, these Gu insects and ghosts are not easy to replenish here in Tianyuan World.
Even for things like the Flying Sword, because Ghost Ridge Palace is now involved in a sect war and the black market has come to a standstill, all kinds of materials have long been sold out. Even if there are still items, the prices have skyrocketed. Su Jie can't even replenish the Flying Sword. easy.
Su Jie was busy refining insects when there was movement not far away. A beautiful shadow jumped between the ancient trees, and then Ning Xinyue appeared next to Su Jie.
"Hey, Su Jie, whenever you want to catch them, some human-faced moths will be enough."
Ning Xinyue walked through the insect cloud composed of human-faced moths. After dealing with Su Jie for a long time, her immunity to insects has improved a lot.
Su Jie had a calm expression and said: "You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you're not a family member. I lost so many people in the last war. If I don't make up for it, my strength will decline. You can give it to me!"
"Your decline in strength has nothing to do with me. If you want to find it, go to Du Shaochang."
"So why did you come to me?"
Su Jie asked the real question. This girl was rarely seen when she had nothing to do. She didn't know what she was busy with.
"I want to find you. I have something to do with you."
Ning Xinyue suddenly started to hesitate when speaking.
"Why, this isn't like your style. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Su Jie glanced at Ning Xinyue and put down the movement of refining the insect in his hand. "How is your holy lotus growing?"
Ning Xinyue hesitated for a moment, then spoke a little nervously.
Su Jie was stunned for a moment, looked at Ning Xinyue suspiciously, and said in a deep voice: "What, you still want to take advantage of my Holy Lotus?"
"I would like to ask you to borrow a few hours. I practice a secret method called the Hundred Treasures Divine Light. I can borrow the special aura of various treasures to verify my own path, thereby improving my cultivation and using it in battle. The more powerful the The better the treasure is.”
Ning Xinyue was a little embarrassed. With her pride, this was the first time she asked someone to borrow something.
"Yes!"
Su Jie didn't think much and agreed directly.
"Eh."
Ning Xinyue originally thought that there would be some entanglement, and even thought that Su Jie would refuse directly, but she did not expect that Su Jie would agree in such a straightforward manner.
"I said, I can lend it to you, but you have to use it in front of me."
Su Jie turned his head and looked at Ning Xinyue. Seeing the confusion in the girl's eyes, he smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? We are friends. How can I help you with this small request?"
< br>
Ning Xinyue looked at Su Jie blankly, as if she was meeting Su Jie for the first time.
"Friends!"
Ning Xinyue looked a little happy, but then she thought of something and subconsciously said: "You are so kind to me all of a sudden, you must not have any conspiracy."
"How can I have any conspiracy? For the sake of my friends, I will give you a 20% discount and charge you a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones."
Su Jie smiled and completed what he had not finished.
In an instant, the expression on Ning Xinyue's face fell.
"Is this how you treat your friends?"
Ning Xinyue's bright eyes widened with disbelief.
"Ning Yatou, you need to understand this. This is a rare treasure. I would be very compassionate if I could lend it to you. If it were an ordinary person, let alone a hundred medium-grade spiritual stones, I would give it to a thousand or ten thousand." Without taking a second look.”
Su Jie said plausibly that he didn't even ask Ning Xinyue to add money.
"You are a man who wants money."
Ning Xinyue's teeth were itching with hatred. This bastard, thanks to her being moved for a moment just now, it turned out that he was completely overestimating him.
"If you don't want to change, just give me the secret art of the Hundred Treasures Divine Light that you know, and I can charge less as appropriate."
"Huh, you can't learn it even if I teach you. You have to be in a specific environment to learn this skill."
"Then just pay the money honestly."
Su Jie flicked the girl's head and said in a funny tone: "You made a lot of money with this price. Who told you not to seize the opportunity in the first place, or to take advantage of me to go out to participate in the sect war and take advantage of me?" Kill it and take this sacred lotus as your own.”
"I'm not that bad."
Ning Xinyue was stunned at first, her pretty face turned red, and she glared angrily at Su Jie.
