Chapter 661 Two routes, planned in advance
Elder Qu was obviously of extraordinary origin, and was not on the same level as the previous exchange monks.
This kind of purgatory demonic insect itself has a very high level and starting point. The larvae have the strength of the Qi training stage, and they can reach the foundation building stage when they become adults!
If it mutates or evolves, it can grow into a golden elixir stage demon insect!
Therefore, if you think about it, you will know that it is not easy to cultivate, and the number cannot be too large.
And the supporting secret techniques are also very powerful, two of which have been identified as fourth-level secret techniques by the enhancement panel.
【Purgatory Demon Flame】
Quality: Level 4 Insect Control Technique
Introduction: The flames smelted in the body of the Purgatory Molten Worms after eating volcanic rocks for a long time can only smelt one kind of fire. The combined breath can superimpose the power of the flames.
(Note: The Purgatory Demonic Fire Seed can be taken out, refined, and used for your own use)
Strengthening requirements: 64 points
【Dissolve】
Quality: Level 4 Insect Control Technique
Introduction: After the Infernal Molten Worm consumes Broken Heart Grass for a long time, it spits out mucus that can dissolve tangible and intangible objects.
(Note: Intangible objects are limited to the five elements, excluding spirits, ghosts, spiritual consciousness, illusions, strong winds, aurora, magnetic fields, etc.)
(Note: The removed cyst cannot be refined or used)
Strengthening requirements: 64 points
These two sets of insect-control secret techniques are obviously not ordinary goods. They are in compliance with the regulations and have their own system. They are tailor-made for the purgatory demon insects. They are most likely the true inheritance of a top magic sect!
"Ahem, cough, brother Liansha, when you go back and raise yourself, try not to show yourself in front of others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
Elder Qu looked embarrassed. Obviously there were risks behind this thing, and it was easy for the top faction to hold him accountable.
The two of them are worthless, and they are both black goods that cannot be dealt with.
No wonder this guy only dared to call it a purgatory demon worm, but didn't dare to call it a purgatory melting worm.
Just one word difference, and if you say it, you will be in trouble!
Lin Shan didn't have any reaction to this. There is a saying that if you have too many debts, you can use them secretly anyway. If you really can't kill all your opponents, without witnesses, who can tell you the secret?
Elder Qu dared to order the ancient treasure Cangshi Peak, and he obviously had this understanding in his heart.
The two of them had a tacit understanding.
Elder Qu also gave Lin Shan thoughtful guidance:
"There are currently many ways to cultivate this insect. The two most mature routes are the magic fire route and the slime route. The corresponding insect food is purgatory volcanic rock and lava heartbreak grass respectively."
"It's just that purgatory volcanic rocks are relatively rare. You can use volcanic rocks from our world instead. Note that it's best to have active volcanoes with spiritual energy."
"I have seeds of lava heartbreak here. It is best to plant them near an active volcano with aura, otherwise it will not be easy to survive and the environment will be more demanding."
"If you really don't have room, I can also provide you with a contact information to buy this kind of insect food from others, but the price is a little more expensive, and the quantity of you will be limited"
Lin Shan nodded, indicating that he understood.
Active volcano,
Not to mention the distance, there is the Liluan Mountain Range in the northwest of Lu State, which is an active volcano full of natural spiritual energy!
After the Wangyue City incident, on the eve of the 72 forces' conquest of the Dai family, it was there that the Black Skeleton Demon Lord recovered from his soul elixir stage.
It's just that it is located in the northwest of Shandong. If I want to take it as my own, there are still a few obstacles that need to be put aside.
It seems that even if the merchant and Shang Yang Academy didn't turn against each other that time, they still couldn't avoid the conflict afterwards, and they had to do it after all!
"I remember that Mu Yan was harvested near the Liluan Mountains. His Mu family is also a local family. If we use this as an entry point, maybe"
Lin Shan touched his chin, his thoughts divergent.
In the State of Lu, people pay attention to their reputation, so he began to plan ahead and think about how to penetrate into the northwest of Lu and take over the Liluan Mountains in the future.
Of course, this is not the time to think about it yet.
Elder Qu was still telling him a steady stream of key points about how to control insects, and he had to memorize them carefully.
"The two routes feed each other during the larval and adult stages. Don't get confused. You can only go one way to the end."
"Only after evolving into a large adult and reaching the golden elixir stage, the insect reaches the bottleneck, and then it can try route fusion, which is the so-called mutation."
"Mutation has always been a subject of large-scale research by top demons. I won't reveal it to you here. Anyway, the two routes are enough for you to use."
"Let's talk about the magic fire route first. Before reaching adulthood, the insect's magic fire can only be said to be okay. If the number is large enough, it can barely reach the level of the golden elixir stage magic fire when stacked."
"Once you break through the shackles, you will condense the fire in your body. The purgatory demonic fire is a unique talent of purgatory creatures, and it is also the kind of fire that can be refined by demonic monks into true fire in the body."
"If you want to refine the fire, you only need to take out the fire from the demon insect's body and use it for your own use."
Lin Shan's heart stirred. He had actually always felt that the will-o'-the-wisps of the underworld had a false reputation. Of course, it was also possible that the acquired will-o'-the-wisps trained by Protector Qiu were inherently bad, and he had been relying on his powerful magic power to support them, and his own functions were really unsatisfactory.
I’ve wanted to change it for a long time!
As for the purgatory demonic fire, the hell creature Pig-headed Monster that was surrendered at the beginning has been used several times, and its power is simply indescribable!
The pig-headed monster was later captured by the people of Wu Dao Sect, and he didn't care about it because he was pressed for time.
Now that I think about it, if others can refine this purgatory demonic fire, so can I!
"In other words, if I take out the fire, not only can I use it myself, but I can also take it out and exchange it with others?"
"Yes, it is possible, but if you take the fire, the Infernal Demonic Insect will become a tiger without its claws, which is equivalent to half of it being disabled."
Elder Qu shook his head, because it was really not worth it to waste a golden elixir stage combat power.
It's fine if you use it for yourself, but you'll lose a lot if you exchange it with others!
You know, he has been playing for a lifetime, and there are only a few golden elixirs in total. In order to cultivate a large adult, the effort spent is simply incalculable!
On the surface, Lin Shan nodded and said yes humbly, but in fact, he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Elder Qu told him about the second kind:
"The slime route is relatively easier to walk than the magic fire route, because lava heartbreak can be cultivated and harvested, but infernal volcanic rock and substitutes are difficult to obtain, and they are also consumables!"
"Before reaching adulthood, it was quite satisfactory. Once it reaches the golden elixir stage, it can be used to dissolve fourth-level ores or magic weapons, and even use five-element formations to prohibit spells, etc. It can be described as a great weapon!"
"Of course, it is mostly used in auxiliary situations. In frontal fighting, the magic fire route is more domineering."
"Generally speaking, it is enough to have one or two ready."
Lin Shan thought thoughtfully, the second route is functional, and it seems that it is enough to just try it.
"Of course, because this type of demonic insect is of higher grade and has strong adaptability and evolution, there are many routes. You can also develop it yourself. However, if you cross the river by feeling the stones, the sunk cost of the early investment will definitely be high. , you have to weigh it in your own mind.”
There was another sentence that Elder Qu kept hidden in his heart but did not say.
The top sects of the Demonic Path have invested countless manpower and material resources to test out these stable evolutionary routes. As a casual cultivator, it is okay to follow these two routes obediently. If you want to open up some new evolutionary routes on your own.
Pure fantasy!
The difficulty is far beyond what outsiders imagine!
So when he used it to exchange ancient treasures, he didn't actually make the other party suffer, because the things contained in it were definitely worth the price!
Lin Shan agreed and expressed his gratitude.
Next, he asked about the situation of Lord Kurong's preparations for the conference.
"It should be okay this time. It won't be as intense as before. After all, it has only been thirty years since the last event. Most people are still standing still and have not made much progress. And you know the quality of casual cultivators."
Elder Qu obviously had an extraordinary background, and he had a little contempt for it, so he didn't catch a cold very much.
Lin Shan himself also knew the virtues of a casual cultivator. The weak are very weak, the strong are very strong, they are polarized, most of them are vulnerable, and it is normal for them to be looked down upon by the elites.
Nothing happened next. Because of their related interests, they agreed to meet if they had the opportunity in the future.
Elder Qu said that he would come to Jiangning City every once in a while to visit. If you have anything to do in the future or if you want to contact him, you can just come here to find him.
The two briefly made friends, and then Lin Shan submitted his resignation.
After coming out.
Jindan Zhenren has basically visited all the caves, but his previous neighbors in the cave are still waiting for him. Ke Jizi, who he had promised to take to his home to see antiques, has also disappeared!
"Huh?"
"Brother Dao, are you looking for Kejizi?"
Master Demon Lotus, Master Xie Xin and others gathered around him, watching him look left and right.
"That's right, Taoist fellow Taoist Kejizi and I got along quite well. I thought he would invite me to be a guest."
Lin Shan scratched his head, looking a little depressed. The Gu Yun he got was just gone, and he was let go. Naturally, he was unhappy.
"Haha, fellow Taoist is so powerful. Let alone Ke Jizi, even we are scared. How dare he continue to invite you as a guest? I'm afraid he will attract wolves. Hahahaha"
Mrs. Bones knew that she had made a mistake and quickly laughed and passed.
Lin Shan didn't pay attention to these insignificant details and just asked everyone where Ke Jizi's cave was.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one said anything.
You kid, are you going to move all the caves away without waiting for you?
"Why don't you say anything? I just want to have a friendly exchange with him, and I don't mean any harm!"
Lin Shan quickly asked, and everyone had no choice but to tell him that they really didn't know where Kejizi was hiding on weekdays.
After all, most casual cultivators have no fixed place, wandering around like wandering clouds and wild cranes. Even if there is a location, it is like a cunning rabbit. Where do you ask them to find it?
Isn't it the same with your Evil Refining Cave? I don't know whether there is such a place or not?
"Okay, let's let him go. No"
When everyone saw that he had spilled the beans, they secretly thought that Ke Jizi was very clever and could sneak away very quickly!
Xiang followed him back to the cave.
Lin Shan took out the Gmelting Insect Nest. The black beetles and horned beetles currently raised here have entered a stage of stagnant growth.
Nothing else, because insect food needs to ensure daily consumption, and expanding the scale means requiring more cordyceps.
He thought for a while, took out the summoning flag, and a black vortex channel appeared.
There were sounds of fighting on the other side of the passage, as if there was an emergency.
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord didn't even have time to come over!
Isn't this guy looking after his house? Could it be that something happened at the Lu State base camp?
Waited for a long time,
Lin Shan turned on the summoning flag again, and this time it finally came.
"What do you want from me?"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord stepped out of the whirlpool passage, looked at the surrounding environment out of habit, and asked where he was now.
"I'm in the Jin Kingdom now. Hey, you've actually returned to the late Jindan stage?!"
Lin Shan looked at the skeleton monster up and down with surprise in his eyes.
Without him, how could this guy recover so quickly?
They have caught up with his cultivation progress!
The Black Skull Demon Lord coughed twice and felt a little guilty, but he also felt incredible.
"Aren't you in the late stage of Golden Elixir?"
"I'm different!"
Lin Shan stood up and circled around it, marveling at it.
"I received inheritance in the Yuxing Secret Treasures, so I have made rapid progress. But you don't have such a good opportunity in the outside world, so why can you recover so quickly? You can't use the Xungu Sect and the Lujiang Alliance to seek personal gain with your power, right?"
< br>
“Where is there???”
The Black Skull Demon Lord jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on and quickly defended himself.
"I work hard for you, dedicated to my duties, dedicated to you, and work hard every day!"
"Do you know how much pressure the merchants and Shangyang Academy put on you after you left? Other forces in Western Shandong are ready to move, and the Lujiang League is in danger!"
"If I hadn't restored the late stage of Jindan in time and forcibly stabilized the situation, I don't know what would have happened when you came back!"
Lin Shan couldn't help but be doubtful when he heard what it said was dangerous.
The Black Skull Demon Lord gave a speech, telling how he went to the front line in person and fought with the merchant ancestors during the day, and he was too busy to care about it.
Under its overall planning and control, the Lujiang League managed to secure the Lujiang River Basin in time, making it so impregnable that no outside spies could get in!
"Okay, okay! I don't have time to listen to you."
Lin Shan had roughly heard that it was good that the Lujiang League and the Xun Gu Sect were still there. Looking at the situation, there was no need to go back by himself for the time being, and the problem was not unsolvable.
Then just delay it and let your subordinates handle it.
The main problem is the Cordyceps sinensis, which needs to be arranged as soon as possible.
"These are more than a dozen insect feed formulas. Take them back and order people to start cultivating them immediately. I need to get the results as soon as possible."
The Black Skull Demon Lord was holding a heavy pile of formulas and seeds in his hands, and he just felt baffled.
It flipped through a few of them and immediately shook its head.
"You have too many. I think it would be too much to plant all the medicine gardens in our Tianfu Mountain for you!"
"What else is this? Lava cordgrass? Where can I find active volcanoes for you? There are only a few named active volcanoes in the state of Lu, either in the northwest of Shandong or..."
"Huh?"
It didn't react slowly, and immediately thought of the Liluan Mountains.
"The merchant's rear seems to be a group of active volcanoes, bordering the Mystic Ridge. Unless the Mystic Ridge can secretly instigate rebellion, then stab them in the back."
Lin Shan waved his hand and told him to do it quickly.
"I don't care how you do it, but you must do it for me before I summon you next time! Oh, by the way, there are also the Cordyceps from the black beetle and the one-horned fairy. You can send me some more. .”
"No, then when will you come back?"
Before the Black Skeleton Demon Lord could ask, he was kicked back into the whirlpool passage.
"The return date has not yet been determined, please let me implement this matter first. If the medicinal fields are not enough, we will outsource them. There are plenty of people to do this."
Lin Shan ended this matter and started refining the new evil spirit!
