I am cultivating immortals in mortal science

Chapter 1774 Searching for the Cold Ground
Hearing Luo Hong's request, the black-clothed girl's face twitched for a moment. She thought to herself that it was no wonder that the other party was so generous as to let her devour a piece of the remains of the Golden Immortal Beast. It turned out that he had the same idea as Qu Ling!
"Does it have to be the Fire Year Firefly?"

The girl in black did not try to deny it, because she knew that since Luo Hong had directly revealed the name of the insect, it would be useless for her to deny it.

"Do you have any difficulties, my friend? As long as it is reasonable, I will do my best to solve it for you."

There are tens of thousands of spiritual insects in the world, too numerous to count, but there is only one kind of spiritual insect that is born with the law of time, and that is the famous fire-year firefly!

This insect is born with the power of the two laws of time and true fire. It has a strong body defense and can spit out the extremely deadly flame of time. It is an extremely dangerous existence!

The reason why Luo Hong was sure that the Mother of the Stem Borer had once devoured the Fire-Year Firefly was because the time magical powers they possessed were extremely similar.

"The talent of my moth clan is to master some of the laws that we have devoured. Unfortunately, my bloodline and cultivation are insufficient, and I am far from reaching the 'Nine Netherworlds' of my ancestor. I can only master one law in this way.

Fortunately, this insect mother had good luck that year. When she was hesitating, she met several legendary fireflies.

After devouring it, the insect mother decisively chose the law of time that they possessed.

So, Fellow Daoist Luo, if you want me to use the Soul Separation Secret Technique to condense the Fire Year Fireflies, you can, but you must swear not to harm them. "

The girl in black said seriously.

"Yes, Luo can swear a demon oath for this, but I don't know why."

In Luo Hong's grand plan, he had no intention of doing anything to those fire-year fireflies, so he agreed immediately.

But out of curiosity, he still asked one more question.

"Since Brother Luo has sworn, it's okay for me to tell you.

Although the innate magical powers of our race are powerful, they also have flaws. Any law that enters the netherworld cannot be damaged after the corresponding spiritual insects are separated.

Otherwise, the cultivation of the laws of the Netherworld will be greatly reduced.

To put it simply, if something goes wrong with those fireflies, this insect mother will lose the laws of time that she has mastered!
I think Fellow Daoist Luo is very clear about the pros and cons of this."

The girl in black chose to tell the truth at this time. Firstly, it was not a secret. After all, this magical power was based on the law of devouring. There were more than just their borer clan who could master the law of devouring. Secondly, she wanted Luo Hong to be more aware of the importance of these fire-year fireflies to her.

The subtext is that as long as the Firefly has been or is likely to be damaged, she will terminate the cooperation!
This is equivalent to saying the ugly words in advance.

"I see. I understand. Please cast the spell, fellow Taoist."

Luo Hong nodded upon hearing this, he guessed so.

After all, if there was no such flaw, wouldn't the Mother of Corn Moths be able to multiply the power of her own law of time simply by activating the art of splitting her soul?
This is obviously against the justice of nature!
The girl in black took a deep breath, made some hand gestures, and then opened her mouth.

Suddenly, small dark red insects the size of rice grains with red flames burning on their bodies flew out from the mouth of the girl in black.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, the lifespan of fireflies is only a month or so, so you have to do whatever you want them to do quickly.

Otherwise, they would have to be fed with large amounts of flesh and blood.

Be careful, it must be a living creature of flesh and blood, the snow beasts in this cold and dark realm are useless."

Before Luo Hong could see clearly the appearance of these dark red bugs, the girl in black hurriedly reminded him.

"Don't worry, I know the habits of this insect very well, there will be no problem."

Others often say that the flame of time of the Fire Year Fireflies has the ability to burn the lifespan of living beings. Even a Golden Immortal cultivator will die of old age in a short period of time if he is entangled by tens of thousands of them at the same time.

But as a being who also mastered some of the laws of time, Luo Hong certainly knew that this was not the case.

The magical power of the Flame of Time is actually the internal method of the long river of time. When it falls on the body of a living being, it will cause time to move forward madly.

The immortal spiritual energy that maintains the immortality of the cultivator is rapidly consumed in this process, but it cannot be replenished from the outside world.

When it is completely exhausted, the immortal's body will naturally begin to age.

In addition, the reason why the Fire-Year Fireflies possess great power in the fairy world is because the above process will also force out the essence in the body of the cultivator, which is exactly the food necessary for the Fire-Year Fireflies to reproduce.

If nothing unexpected happens to Luo Hong's plan, then one month will be more than enough.

Even if an accident occurs, he will use the blood dragon fish in the Netherworld Cave as food for the hundreds of fire-year fireflies.

"Okay, Brother Luo, tell me, which restriction should we conquer?"

The girl in black breathed a sigh of relief.

"Restriction? No, that's not what Luo meant.

Later, Luo will use his secret technique to explore all the spatial nodes in this cold and dark realm.

At that time, please ask Daoist Brother Moth to drive these fireflies to sense the auras emitted by those spatial nodes separately, and then report the results. "

Luo Hong shook his head at first when he heard this, and then, in order to prevent the Mother of Stem Borers from continuing to make blind guesses, he revealed part of the plan.

“It seems that Brother Luo, you just want to use the Firefly’s instinctive perception of the law of time to find something here.

That's fine, I will do my best!"

The girl in black originally thought that Luo Hong wanted to use the Flame of Time to achieve some purpose, but she didn't expect that the other party was actually interested in the Fire-Year Firefly itself.

But this is undoubtedly a better result. After all, in this way, these fireflies don’t need to fight at all, and their safety is instantly increased!
After getting a satisfactory answer, Luo Hong directly summoned the Ksitigarbha Dharma Wheel, and then with a flash of his body, he took the black-clothed girl and escaped into the earth vein node under the solitary peak.

The next moment, Luo Hong activated the magic weapon to connect the earth veins in one go.

This secret technique was originally just something Luo Hong made up to fool Xing Wanhai, but as his cultivation level improved, he became more and more proficient in using the Ksitigarbha Dharma Wheel, and he actually comprehended this secret technique of searching the earth.

However, if you want to explore all the space nodes, it is not enough to just connect the ground veins.

"Fairy, it's up to you now!"

Luo Hong grabbed it casually and pulled out the Sky-Breaking Spear from the void.

Then he threw it and let it hang above his head.

"Humph, it's just a small matter!"

Fairy Silver smiled confidently, and then used all her strength to activate the power of the laws of the Sky-Breaking Spear.

Suddenly, the black-clad girl nearby saw nearly thirty golden characters of the Great Dao appear on the Sky-Breaking Spear.

“A high-level immortal weapon!”

Even though she had seen the Ksitigarbha Dharma Wheel, the girl in black was still very shocked.

Because Luo Hong had used the Breaking Heaven Spear many times during the battles back then, the girl in black was very familiar with this spear and knew that it was at most a low-level immortal weapon.

But after only a few years of not seeing each other, Luo Hong actually refined a lower-level immortal weapon into a higher-level immortal weapon. What a level of attainment in weapon refining!

However, Luo Hong didn't care how surprised she was at this moment. With a thought, he condensed hundreds of fist-sized silver-yellow whirlpools around his body.

"Fellow Daoist Moth, please act quickly. This is only the first batch. We must hurry."

Seeing the girl in black standing there in a daze, Luo Hong immediately reminded her with a frown.

The girl in black finally came to her senses, and immediately looked at Luo Hong with a strange look in her eyes.

Perhaps they could deepen their cooperation.

However, now was obviously not the time to talk about this, and the girl in black did not hesitate. She immediately distracted herself and controlled hundreds of fireflies, flying towards a silver-yellow vortex.

Soon, dark red bugs that looked like fireflies drilled into the silver-yellow vortex and were teleported to the vicinity of the corresponding space node.

After a few breaths, they all returned along the same path, and their spirits instantly returned to the original spirit of the girl in black.

Luo Hong did not ask any questions at this time, but just gave him a questioning look, but he just shook his head slowly.

Then, Luo Hong withdrew his gaze, changed the magic gestures in his hands, and condensed a new batch of silver-yellow whirlpools.

Seeing this, the girl in black drove the fireflies to move again without Luo Hong's reminder.

This cycle repeated itself, and the days passed one by one. In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

Although activating the Ksitigarbha Dharma Wheel for such a long time was not used for fighting, it also consumed a lot of Luo Hong's Taichu Immortal Essence, so that his breath was a little weaker than half a month ago.

"Luo boy, can your method really work?"

After working hard for half a month but seeing no results, Fairy Silver couldn't help but become suspicious.

"Absolutely, Luo is just unlucky, but as long as we explore all the space nodes, we will definitely be able to find that place!"

Luo Hong still spoke with certainty after hearing this.

Not for any other reason, but because he knew the overall structure of the Minghan Immortal Mansion.

Different from ordinary immortal palaces and secret realms, the Minghan Immortal Palace is more like a pagoda composed of multiple immortal palaces and secret realms.

The Youhan Realm is the first level of this pagoda, and there are many more levels above it all the way to the core of the Minghan Immortal Mansion.

Each floor is a big secret realm, and there are many small secret realms in it, just like a building within a building.

Precisely because of its complexity and numerous restrictions, the cultivators of the Beihan Immortal Realm have explored it so many times, but have only occasionally entered the upper levels and have never gone deep into the core!

The place Luo Hong wanted to go was naturally not the core palace of the Minghan Immortal Mansion. After all, only when the Immortal Mansion was officially opened, the restrictions in the palace would allow the Taiyi Pill to be refined.

However, the place he wanted to go was also above the third floor, and he didn't know the specific path.

If we just rely on our own strength and explore bit by bit, we will waste a lot of time and encounter many dangers, but it is not completely without hope.

Therefore, after the mother of corn borer disappeared, Luo Hong only felt troubled and annoyed, but not anxious.

As long as the Mother of the Stem Borer can drive the Fire-Year Fireflies to help, Luo Hong will be able to find the only shortcut among the numerous space nodes in the Youhan Realm.

After all, although the opportunities in the Youhan Realm are the least among all the levels, it exists as the foundation of the entire Immortal Mansion and is connected to all the secret realms of all sizes in the Immortal Mansion.

In other words, that shortcut must exist!

Just as he was thinking about it, a strange look appeared on the face of the girl in black.

"how?"

When Luo Hong noticed it, he immediately asked with his eyes lighting up.

"There is a very weak breath of the law of time emanating from this spatial node."

The girl in black immediately pointed at a silver-yellow vortex.

"very good!"

Luo Hong immediately showed a look of joy and put away his secret technique.

Although he really wanted to teleport there immediately, out of caution, Luo Hong restrained his temper and took the elixir first to restore his immortal energy.

A few days later, Luo Hong suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and activated the Ksitigarbha Dharma Wheel, and a silver-yellow vortex as tall as a person condensed.

"go!"

After greeting the girl in black, Luo Hong stepped into the vortex without hesitation.

The girl in black was also curious about where Luo Hong was looking for, so she immediately followed him in.

Teleporting via the earth veins is the specialty of the Wood Clan, but it is not very suitable for the Human Clan because the teleportation process is rather difficult.

But for Luo Hong and the Mother of Stem Borers, this little damage could be simply ignored.

So the next moment, the two of them just felt a little dizzy and came to the bottom of the sea.

Without paying attention to the freezing cold water around him, Luo Hong flew straight towards a rock on the seabed.

Without waiting to get close, he pointed his sword finger out, and a silver light shot out from his fingertips.

After the silver light sank into the void above the rock, a silver vortex immediately appeared.

Stopping in front of this spatial node, Luo Hong held his breath and concentrated, carefully sensing the breath emanating from it.

After about an hour, he finally caught a glimpse of the law of time and thus completely confirmed it.

"Follow closely!"

After saying hello without looking back, Luo Hong directly disappeared into this space node.

After a moment, relying on the laws of space, Luo Hong and the girl in black passed through this space node very smoothly.

After coming out, they immediately came to a place where the aura of the laws of heaven and earth was completely different from that of the Youhan Realm.

Glancing around, Luo Hong saw that the terrain around him was flat. Everywhere he looked was a barren red soil with no grass growing on it, and not even a trace of a living creature could be seen.

A small whirlwind swept past, and immediately a cloud of red sand and dust rose from the ground, looking extremely desolate.

Seeing this scene, the girl in black who followed out of curiosity couldn't help but show disappointment on her face.

No matter what, this place was far worse than she had expected.

But soon, she noticed that Luo Hong was staring ahead with excitement.

The girl in black subconsciously followed his gaze and saw a huge city standing in the distance. Cracks could be vaguely seen on the city walls and the buildings in the city were almost all in ruins, which perfectly matched the desolate land.

But after a slight pause, the girl in black flipped her palm and summoned a firefly.

As soon as it came out, the insect seemed to be summoned by something and flew towards the direction of the huge city.

"Yuehe City is quite interesting."

The girl in black couldn't help but murmured as she activated her spiritual eyes and saw the plaque on the top of the city wall clearly.
