Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Through Everything.
Chapter 26 Fire Crystal Ant (Please read on)
"This is your swallowtail butterfly, keep it."
He handed the insect bag to Su Yanping and took out the butterfly breeding skills he wrote yesterday.
"This is a little trick for the cultivation of swallowtail butterflies."
Chen Xuan saluted Su Zhengming with his fists.
"Senior Su, the swallowtail butterfly has returned intact. This matter is over. I have other things to do. I will take my leave now."
"Please stay, sir!"
Su Zhengming returned the gift with a straight face and a friendly attitude.
"My daughter is ignorant. Thank you for your help. Su is grateful."
"Doctor Tea, give me a pot of good spiritual tea."
Hearing that there was good spiritual tea to be had, Chen Xuan sat down.
There is a strict class division in the world of cultivation, including large sects, small and medium sects, and cultivation families. The bottom is the casual cultivators, which are in a pyramid shape.
Generally speaking, the cultivation families have spiritual veins and dojo foundations. Although they have to pay taxes and tributes to the sects, they can always keep some, and their lives are much better than the casual cultivators who live from day to day.
Many independent cultivators struggle their whole lives, aiming for a miniature spiritual vein so that their descendants can settle down.
He remembered Su Yanping saying that the Su family of Feifeng Mountain had a small spiritual vein and a foundation-building ancestor.
Such a cultivation family suddenly greeted him with a smile, and they must have something to ask for.
And what he was good at was, on the surface, only the insect-controlling technique.
"I didn't expect that my daughter was lucky enough to meet a young hero like Mr. Chen."
Su Zhengming glanced at the swallowtail butterfly, which was full of energy, dancing gracefully, and landed on his daughter's shoulder.
"My Feifeng Mountain Su family has always been kind and generous, and we will repay kindness. This is a small gift, even if it is the hard work fee for treating the swallowtail butterfly, please don't laugh at me, Mr. Chen!"
Su Zhengming handed over two spirit stones.
Chen Xuan did not refuse and accepted them silently.
"By the way, has Mr. Chen been to Feifeng Mountain?"
"No."
"It is said that a real phoenix once settled on Feifeng Mountain and left behind the fire of Nirvana. The whole mountain is filled with rich fire spirit, which is especially suitable for fire cultivators to practice."
"Oh."
Chen Xuan looked at Su Yanping, who was giggling because of the swallowtail butterfly.
"She has the wood spirit root like her mother."
Su Zhengming explained.
No wonder Chen Xuan was soft-hearted and felt close to Su Yanping. It turned out that they were both wood cultivators.
As for the fact that a real phoenix settled on Feifeng Mountain and the fire of Nirvana, Chen Xuan just heard about it.
If there was such a good thing, it would not be their turn for the Su family. It would have been occupied by the sect long ago.
"This is the fire phoenix fruit produced in our Feifeng Mountain. Try it."
Su Zhengming took out a fist-sized spirit fruit from the storage bag. It was fiery red.
When it was broken open, the flesh was also fiery red, tender and juicy, delicious and crispy.
Chen Xuan has a low-grade fire spirit root. After taking a fire phoenix fruit, the overbearing fire spirit energy seemed to burn all his internal organs.
"What a fire phoenix fruit!"
Chen Xuan quickly drank a sip of spirit tea to suppress the anger in his body.
"Not bad, right? This is only the top-grade fire phoenix fruit. The top-grade fire phoenix fruit is a tribute to the Jinyang Sect."
"This spirit fruit is really good."
"We only sell medium and low-grade fire phoenix fruits to the outside world. The medium-grade one spirit stone per catty, and the low-grade two spirit stones three catties."
"Oh."
Chen Xuan drank the spirit tea and waited quietly for the next words.
He didn't think that a family cultivator in the late stage of Qi training would spend so much time to invite him to drink good spirit tea and taste the top-grade spirit fruit just to thank him for helping his daughter.
Cultivators pay more attention to interests than mortals.
"Mr. Chen is an insect master. Have you ever heard of fire crystal ants?"
"Fire crystal ants?"
Chen Xuan recalled that this kind of demon insect was indeed mentioned in "The Art of Controlling Spirits and Insects".
Fire crystal ants are fire-attributed social demon insects that live deep in underground nests. They have ant spirits and demon fire in their bodies, which can devour gold and burn stones. They are naturally fond of devouring all kinds of fire-attributed spiritual objects.
Ordinary fire crystal ants are not of high quality, a small number of big-headed ants can reach low quality, and the queen of fire crystal ants is generally of medium or high quality.
"I've heard of it."
Su Zhengming showed a happy expression.
"Mr. Chen, do you have any way to deal with fire crystal ants?"
It was not until then that Su Zhengming revealed his purpose.
It turned out that Feifeng Mountain had a small fire spirit vein, and its specialty was fire phoenix fruit trees, with 3,000 trees.
Every year, a batch of fire phoenix fruits can mature, and the best ones are tributed to Jinyang Sect, the best ones are left for the clan members to practice, and the middle and lower ones are sold to the outside world.
It is a spiritual fruit, and there are demon insects eating it.
Fire crystal ants are the most common demon insects among them.
In the past, under the strict defense of the Su family, only a small number of poor quality fire phoenix fruits were lost.
But this year, an accident happened.
The number of fire crystal ants exceeded the Su family's imagination.
Covering the sky and earth, densely packed, the three thousand fire phoenix trees were all full of fire crystal ants that were stronger than iron and stone.
No mistake, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
The Su family tried their best to control the three thousand fire phoenix trees, mobilized the whole family, and all five hundred cultivators went into battle, but they still couldn't completely control them.
It was not an easy task to get rid of the fire crystal ants, not to hurt the fire phoenix trees, and to protect the fire phoenix fruit.
If this goes on, let alone selling it to the outside world or using it for personal use, even the top-grade fire phoenix fruit that was offered to the sect might not be kept.
"Is that so!"
Chen Xuan had already been tempted in his heart, but he had to pretend to be embarrassed on the surface.
These were hundreds of millions of fire crystal ants. Even if ordinary fire crystal ants were not of grade, the insect spirits they contained were considerable.
What's more, there were also a large number of big-headed ants that were about to enter the grade.
According to Su Zhengming, the Su family decided to invite foreign aid. As long as the fire crystal ants can be eliminated, the Su family is willing to pay 800 spirit stones.
"Senior, do you have fire crystal ants? I'll take them back for research and reply to you tomorrow."
"Yes, I just brought some."
Su Zhengming took out a bug bag, which contained more than a dozen ordinary fire crystal ants and a big-headed ant general.
Chen Xuan put away the bug bag, agreed to come to the tea shop to discuss tomorrow, and went home to study on his own.
Sure enough, the fire crystal ants are not so easy to deal with.
The body is hard, fearless, tenacious, and the teeth are poisonous.
There is another key reason, too many.
"Qingqing!"
At critical moments, teammates have to come to help.
"Is there any way?"
The psychic green snake looked disdainful.
"Little ant, how can I not do it? The essence of the insect spirit must be divided with me in half!"
Chen Xuan looked at the smug psychic green snake speechlessly.
He suddenly realized that it was not entirely a good thing to cultivate strange insects too quickly.
Like the poisonous flame golden silkworm, he asked him for insect spirit essence when he asked it to do something.
And the psychic green snake in front of him.
Blatantly extorting him.
"It's not just that. There are three thousand fire phoenix trees, and there must be at least a few thousand on each tree."
"Ah, with so many, Qingqing will be exhausted."
The psychic green snake rolled his eyes and said with certainty: "You have to pay more! I want 70% of the insect spirit essence!"
Chen Xuan persuaded softly: "Qingqing, you can't be too selfish as a snake. You will become a dragon in the future. You may have to face competitors in this business. When the time comes, Baobao, Xiaodao, and Heizi will all contribute."
Heizi is the Jade-faced Queen Bee.
"Look, let's do this. I only want 30% of the insect spirit essence I get, and the remaining 70% will all be given to you. When the time comes, you can distribute them according to their merits."
"You are their leader. A successful leader will not eat alone."
It must be said that the psychic green snake is still very loyal.
After Chen Xuan's deception, an agreement was quickly reached.
In front of Chen Xuan, the psychic green snake showed its innate magical power, a spell called extreme cold ice fog, which is very effective against ordinary fire crystal ants.
The remaining problem is safety.
It's not far to go to Feifeng Mountain, and the Sima family will not ambush him halfway.
It's related to his life and property, so it's not too cautious.
