A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

The secret room for feeding strange insects is a dozen stone rooms of different sizes carved out by Han Li on a bluestone wall.

In order to prevent them from escaping from these secret rooms, Han Li also set up some small restrictions between each stone room to prevent them from breaking out.

In Han Li's opinion, no matter how high these strange insects are ranked, most of them are young now, and these restrictions, even if they are ordinary, are enough to trap them.

But in the secret chambers in front of them, not only the restrictions set up were gone, but all the stone doors were riddled with holes like honeycombs, and they were completely destroyed.

Han Li felt a little shocked. With a thought, Qu Hun strode forward and pushed open the nearest stone door.

It was empty, there was nothing there.

Han Li let out a breath. Although he was prepared in his heart, he was still extremely depressed.

He scanned the secret room, turned his head slightly, and set his sights on the stone door again.

Then he walked over without saying a word and half-crouched in front of the broken stone door.

The ruined appearance of the stone gate is very strange. It is full of small holes of the same size.

But what puzzled Han Li was that the inside of these small holes were not very smooth but extremely rough. It really didn't look like they were caused by magic weapons or anything like that.

Han Li frowned and slowly stood up.

He slowly closed his eyes, and his consciousness instantly scanned the rest of the secret rooms.

There was the same empty space, even the two strange insect chambers ranked among the top 100 on the strange insect list were in the same situation, which made Han Li feel a little heartbroken!

Suddenly his expression changed and he opened his eyes.

After a cold light flashed in his eyes, he left the room and walked towards another secret room.

It was the same empty room, but after Han Li entered it, he bent down without hesitation and picked up something from the bluestone floor.

Place this object in the palm of your hand, then hold it in front of your eyes and take a closer look.

An insect shell the size of a bean was shining brightly, as if it were made of pure silver. It was extremely beautiful.

Han Li touched the insect shell with one finger and felt that the surface of the shell was extremely smooth and very hard.

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, and was sure that this thing was definitely not the shell of the strange insect he had raised.

As a result, Han Li's expression became solemn and he half-squinted his eyes.

With these secret rooms as the center, his consciousness began to search the cave inch by inch.

He didn't believe there were any clues.

A moment later, Han Li made an unexpected discovery in the medicine garden.

Under a certain thick flower tree, there is a shining silver ball hanging. This is not the original thing in the cave.

Han Li greeted Qu Hun and walked out of the secret room with a gloomy expression, heading towards the medicine garden.

The size of the silver ball is not large, only the size of a child's head. But that flickering strange silver light is really eye-catching.

Han Li stood at the entrance of the medicine garden, looking at the silver ball and silently concentrating.

He always felt like he had heard of this silver sphere somewhere, but he just didn't recall it for a while.

But this thing must be closely related to that silver insect shell!

"Insect shell!"

An idea flashed in Han Li's mind, and he seemed to remember something.

He hurriedly reached into his storage bag and found a green jade slip in his hand. It is the piece that records the experience of cultivating insects from Yuling Sect monks.

After his mind sank in, Han Li immediately found the relevant content at the twelfth position on the strange insect list.

"Gold-eating insects, swarming ferocious insects, ranked 12th on the list of strange insects. They love to eat strange insects, and are good at swallowing hardware and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. They are extremely ferocious and are not immersed in water and fire. They like to gather in spheres and live under spiritual trees. Yumu Things can trap each other, and spiders and strange insects attack each other..."

After Han Li read these introductions several times, he felt surprised and happy! He couldn't help but raise his head and look at the silver ball again.

Although those carefully cultivated strange insects are gone, if it were replaced by the strange insect in front of me that was still ranked before the "Golden-backed Sword Mantis", I would be absolutely convinced.

However, according to what is said on the jade slips, "gold-eating insects" eat almost everything except jade and wood, so it is very difficult to catch them.

But fortunately, he also has two "Blood Jade Spiders". Although they are ranked far lower than the "Gold-Eating Insects", they should be able to restrain them.

Because according to the description on the back of the jade slip, the silver gold-eating bugs should be larvae that have not hatched for a long time. The white spider that has risen to the first level is much higher than these gold-eating bugs in terms of monster level alone.

But before that, he still had to try these bugs to see if they were really as powerful as the jade slips said.

Thinking of this, Qu Hun, who was behind Han Li, immediately strode forward and stood in front of him.

Blood glowed from Qu Hun's body. He raised his fingers with one hand, and suddenly a large piece of crimson blood flew over, covering the silver ball in an instant.

But the silver ball seemed to be dead and still didn't move.

Seeing this scene, Han Li touched his nose and felt a little disappointed.

The Yuling Sect monk boasted that this insect was so powerful, but why was his reaction so slow?

After hesitating for a while, Han Li asked Qu Hun to start other probing moves.

I saw Qu Hun looking at the silver ball, a fierce light flashing in his eyes, and raising his hand, a green spell hit the bloody light outside the silver ball.

Suddenly, the blood light gradually turned from red to purple, and burned fiercely in the blink of an eye, turning into an extremely powerful demonic fire.

The silver ball, roasted by the demonic fire, finally changed.

Just like it was made of sand, it split into little bits of silver light in an instant. , and made a buzzing sound.

Han Li hurriedly took a closer look and saw that these silver lights were all flying insects the size of soybeans. Except for a pair of fangs visible to the naked eye, their appearance was the same as that of ordinary beetles. There was nothing special about them. Something special.

Han Li was confused!

Could it be that these were not gold-eating insects and he admitted his mistake?

But after watching it for a while, Han Li was shocked.

Because in Quhun's demonic fire, these beetles not only showed no sign of being burned to ashes, but were instead very much alive.

What's even more incredible is that they kept devouring the demonic fire at an extremely fast speed, and half of the purple flame disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Han Li came back to his senses and was ecstatic!

He immediately loosened the opening of a leather bag around his waist, and two rays of white light flew out of the leather bag and lay firmly on the ground. They were the two "blood jade spiders" as big as heads.

Han Li issued the order to capture alive without hesitation.

Suddenly, at the moment when the last bit of magic fire was eaten by the gold-eating insect, two white liquids spurted out from the white spider's mouth, and turned into two spider webs with a diameter of more than ten feet in mid-air, covering all the spider webs. The silver beetles are all covered in it.

These two spider webs are very different from ordinary spider webs. The mesh holes are so small that even silver beetles cannot escape from the gaps even if they are covered by them.

The gold-eating insects seemed to sense the danger. They immediately transformed into the shape of silver arrows and shot towards the spider web like real crossbow arrows.

There were two sounds of "Puff" and "Puff". Two white spider webs tightly wrapped the silver arrow inside, forming a web ball. The gold-eating insects inside became crazy and made a harsh scream. Finally, he began to bite at the spider silk one by one, and he really wanted to break out of the web.

But the two white spiders didn't give them a chance at all. After a few leaps, they arrived in front of the web ball, and then kept spraying mouthfuls of white liquid from their mouths, wrapping them into a huge ball in a moment.

But Han Li also knew that this spider web might not be able to trap these gold-eating insects for long. He hurriedly took out a jade box from his body, pushed the soft net ball into the box, divided it into two parts, then immediately closed the lid and put it into the storage bag.

Speaking of which, you should use a special spirit beast bag to hold monsters, otherwise ordinary spirit beasts will suffocate to death in the storage bag due to being unable to breathe.

But the strange insects on the strange insect list are completely different. They have extremely strong vitality and can stay safe in the storage bag without breathing. Otherwise, the original Yuling Sect monk would not have carried so many larvae with him in bottles and jars.

Of course, if you really want to drive away beasts and fend off enemies, a dedicated spirit beast bag is the most suitable. Not only is it convenient to summon spiritual beasts, but it is also easier to train.

The most important thing is that the spirit beast bag can shrink some overly large monsters into the bag. Storage bags cannot shrink living things for storage. Therefore, even if the strange insect-like monsters are very large, they can only use special spirit beast bags.

Han Li put away the jade box, fearing that he might have missed something else, so he searched the cave and its surroundings with his spiritual consciousness.

As a result, except for a dense hole in the floor of the storage room, nothing else was found.

These small holes should be the traces left by gold-eating insects burrowing into their caves from the ground!

As a result, Han Li did not dare to stay longer in the cave, and immediately left the real and fake cave, collected the three sets of formation equipment, and flew into the sky.
