Pagoda Immortality

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Li finished speaking, the death ant began to tremble on the ground, making low humming sounds of varying lengths, as if begging for mercy.

Seeing this, Lu Li wrapped it with his true essence again, grabbed it in mid-air, pointed at the ant king's butt and said, "You didn't notice it just now, the way to distinguish male and female is on this butt."

"On the butt?"

"Yes, there is a line of tips on the note, the one with a pointed tail is male, and the one with a round tail is female, so... this ant is undoubtedly male."

"Oh! So that's how it is." Wu De suddenly showed a look of realization, and then asked, "Then how do you know it is the ant king, not a soldier ant?"

Hearing this, Lu Li unceremoniously controlled the ant king to turn over, pointing to a faint golden "king" pattern on the ant king's chest: "See, this is the difference, normal soldier ants don't have this."

Hearing this, Wu De finally understood, and at the same time, he couldn't help showing envy on his face, and began to say that Lu Li made a lot of money.

Lu Li sneered and ignored it, and then he thought about it and took the ant king back to the Ruyi space.

Just when Wu De was about to say, "It seems that an ant king cannot reproduce," a true essence ball suddenly appeared in front of Lu Li.

It also contained a Thunder Fire Death Ant. As Lu Li said, this one had a much rounder butt.

Lu Li did the same thing and easily planted the demon soul contract on the queen ant.

Like before, this queen ant seemed to be confused and was ready to attack Lu Li. After being taught a lesson by Lu Li, she calmed down.

Then, Lu Li thought about it and took the queen ant back.

Then he took the Poison King Ruyi and thought about it. After a pause, he asked, "Old Wu, let me ask you something. If a spirit beast space like Ruyi is stored in a storage ring, will the spirit beast inside be suffocated to death?"

"Of course! All spirit beast spaces need to communicate with the outside world. Otherwise, it's like holding a mortal in water. It's okay for a short time, but if it lasts for a long time, it will definitely suffocate to death! The Thunder Fire Ant is so rare, don't do anything stupid." Wu De said seriously.

"Is that so? Then if I carry this Poison King Ruyi with me... won't it be a bit too conspicuous?"

"What do you mean by conspicuous? You can just make it smaller and hang it on your body as a pendant for decoration. There are thousands of strange things in the world, and the appearance of this Poison King Ruyi is ordinary. If you don't take the initiative to expose its function, no one will know that it is the Poison King Ruyi."

"What if you take the initiative to expose its function? Do many people know it?"

"It shouldn't be too many. After all, Situ He is a figure from more than 100,000 years ago. Except for some extremely ancient forces, I'm afraid that no one in the current Xuanling world knows that such a figure has appeared in the past."

"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that."

Lu Li grinned, and then controlled the Poison King Ruyi to shrink rapidly. In just a moment, it became as thick and long as a finger.

He pinched it and played with it for a while, feeling very satisfied.

Then he took out the thin willow rope, shrunk it into a thin rope, passed it through a small hole at the end of the Poison King Ruyi, and hung it on the jade belt inside the robe.

It looks like it has really added a bit of wealth.

Then he looked at Wu De, "Old Wu, do you have any unused spiritual medicines or treasures? Give me some, I will use them to feed the Thunder Fire Ants."

"Why don't you die!" Wu De blew his beard and glared, "No!"

"If you don't want to give it, then don't give it. What a ruthless hammer!"

Lu Li curled his lips and sat on the ground. Then, with a thought, he took out many spiritual medicines and unused spiritual tools from the Space Hall and threw them into the Ruyi Space.

Suddenly, the ant king and queen were like crazy, rolling and crawling towards those spiritual medicines and spiritual tools. No matter what, they would bite them.

Even if the spiritual tools were in their mouths, it only took a moment for a gap to be bitten out, which surprised and delighted Lu Li.

Apart from anything else, just the teeth alone were enough to make Lu Li look sideways, thinking: It really deserves to be a crystal that has mutated countless times. This time it is really a big profit.

"Next, what are your plans?" Wu De retracted his gaze from a distance and suddenly said.

"What else can I plan? Of course, I want to improve my cultivation as soon as possible. However, there is one more important thing to do before that." Lu Li suddenly put away his joy and sighed.

"More important than improving my cultivation?"

"Well, I have a pet soul-swallowing beast. It got lost due to an accident a few months ago. I searched for it for a long time but couldn't find its trace..." Lu Li buried his head and told the story of escaping from the war.

"Soul-swallowing beast?"

Wu De was a little surprised, "Is it the contracted beast you controlled with the demon soul contract?"

"Yes, but... it has been with me for a long time. The relationship is no longer a simple contractual relationship. If possible, I don't want it to have any accidents."

"Well! In this regard, I am not wrong about you. Although you are a little ruthless to outsiders, you are still a conscience to your own people."

Wu De said with appreciation, and then asked: "Do you need my help?"

"Help?"

Lu Li frowned, "I would like your help, the key is, can you help me find it."

"I can't help you with that. What I mean is that your soul-devouring beast was probably kidnapped by the person you fought with that day. If you want to fight, I can help you."

"Fight? Oh! Okay, if you have nothing to do, come with me. If I meet that guy again, I might need your help." Lu Li said with a smile.

"Okay! We finally meet, I will accompany you, but if it takes too long, I won't accompany you. I have something important to do."

"Important?"

"It's very important, it's related to my cultivation." Wu De said seriously.

"Oh, that's no problem, you can go anytime! But...can you tell me how you broke through to the late stage of the spirit transformation? Even if you were teleported from Xuanzhen and ate Yinshen Pills every day, it would be impossible to reach the late stage so quickly, right?" Lu Li asked with a curious look on his face.

I think he was lucky. He ate a drop of the soul milk of creation by chance, and he barely reached the middle stage.

Wu De arrived at the Xuanling Realm later than himself, but now he has reached the late stage without any notice. This makes Lu Li very curious. Could it be that... there is some treasure that can help one quickly pass the middle stage?

"This... I can't tell you the details, but what I can tell you is that I met an old friend, who gave me a few treasures, and then I broke through." Wu De said vaguely.

"Old friend?" Lu Li was surprised.

"Well, a guy who has the same problem as me..."

"Where is he? Can you introduce him to me?"

"Don't even think about it. He doesn't have such a treasure anymore. Besides, there are special restrictions where he is, so you can't go..." Wu De saw through Lu Li's thoughts at a glance and poured cold water on him.
