Chu Yang had never noticed how ghost beetles reproduced, but this time he finally saw it.

The so-called reproduction of ghost beetles is actually division.

One becomes two, two becomes four...

No.

All the ghost beetles only split once, and the total number reached more than a hundred.

Chu Yang could clearly feel that after the split, the aura of the ghost beetle was much weaker, less than half of its original strength.

From the perspective of energy conservation, after the ghost beetle splits, at least half of the energy must be divided, as well as the energy consumed during the splitting process, which can be said to be a huge loss.

But after they split, their groups expanded.

This is a very good deal.

And after this split, Chu Yang found that the appearance of the ghost beetles had changed somewhat. They seemed to have an extra pair of wings inside their carapace.

The ghost beetle has no inner wings, originally only the outer pair of hard wings on the carapace.

Now there is an extra pair of wings, but the inner ones are still made of the same material as the carapace, and are still hard wings.

This is obviously different from the normal insects in the world, and is even unreasonable.

If the wings of a normal insect grow like this, let alone one pair of wings, even ten pairs of wings will not be able to fly.

The same is true for other creatures. After all, creatures are not airplanes, and hard wings cannot stir up the air at all.

But ghost beetles are different. They are spirits, just like ghosts.

Of course they don't need wings, they can still float.

So the ghost beetles grow two pairs of wings, which obviously have nothing to do with flying. They are their weapons and armor.

Chu Yang didn't know how the two pairs of wings were used as weapons, but the two layers of wings stacked together were like an extra layer of carapace on their backs, which would definitely improve their defense a lot.

Is it really a six-winged golden cicada?

Chu Yang was slightly excited.

Regardless of whether the ghost beetles are six-winged golden cicadas, their ability to eat anything is already ferocious enough.

If their strength can be improved, especially their ability to withstand beatings, they may become a major weapon for Chu Yang against the monks in the future.

Unfortunately, the current number is still a little small.

However, if they only reproduce the population through division, it is not difficult to increase the number of the population.

Judging from the current situation, as long as they eat enough, drink enough, and have enough energy, they can continue to divide, which is much more powerful than a few babies a year.

Chu Yang felt happy.

In the past, he thought it was difficult to find food for ghost beetles, so he could only pick up corpses everywhere.

Now that there is a tide of beasts in the witch world, do we still need to worry about food?

If you have enough food, why don't you work hard to cook it?

Chu Yang seemed to have seen the overwhelming scene of ghost beetles...

"Brother Chu, is this your spiritual pet?"

When Chu Yang took the ghost beetle out for observation, Newton also came up curiously.

Chu Yang laughed and said: "It's not a spiritual pet. I haven't learned the art of controlling animals. Now I can only maintain friendly communication with them..."

"Oh, why don't you learn the art of animal control? Are there any other benefits of not using the art of animal control to control your spiritual pet?"

"Benefits? I don't know...I don't know how to control animals, mainly because I haven't found anyone to teach me."

Chu Yang sighed slightly. If he had known he could get a group of ghost beetles, he would have learned some animal control skills before.

Newton blinked: "Actually, I also have a way to control spiritual pets, but it's just not as professional as controlling beasts..."

Chu Yang's face lit up with joy: "What can we do?"

"A low-level spiritual pet contract, which is simpler and more convenient than the beast control technique, but compared to other spiritual pet contracts... the control of my low-level contract is not that strong."

Newton had some small tricks, and it felt like he was embarrassed to show them off.

There are many types of contracts for spiritual pets, including advanced ones such as symbiosis contracts, which allow them to share their lifespan with the spiritual beast.

If you sign an old monster like a thousand-year-old king or an eighty-thousand-year-old turtle, the practitioner will make a lot of money.

Of course, the risks of a symbiosis contract are also very high. If the spirit beast dies unfortunately, even if the owner does not die, he will still have to lose half of his life, destroy his own cultivation realm, and even his Tao foundation.

There are also purely exploitative contracts such as master-servant contracts and slave contracts, as well as equal contracts such as brother contracts and partner contracts. You can also communicate with spiritual beasts, such as finger-arm users.

This contract that Newton learned is called the boss contract.

The name sounds good, but in fact, this is a cooperation contract, a transaction contract, a shortened and simplified version of the low-level spiritual pet contract.

The specific content of the contract can refer to the relationship between the boss and the employee.

Just give me money and I'll do things for you.

If the money is not available, I will be passive and slow down, or even go on strike and resign to join a competitor.

Of course, such a contract is very deceptive, and Newton really can't handle it.

But as a kind of contract, it will make it easier for the master and the spiritual pet to communicate. At least it will not be as difficult as Chu Yang and Ghost Beetle, who have to convey slightly more complicated information.

Moreover, the boss contract is very easy to learn, even for a rookie like Newton.

"Brother Chu, if you want to learn, I can teach you now. It's very simple to learn, right..."

Newton hesitated for a moment, then said awkwardly: "If you sign a contract with a pet, you still need some spiritual power."

Chu Yang was immediately dumbfounded. Isn't it just a waste of words? Where does the spiritual power come from in this world?

Newton quickly added: "It's not that there is no way to solve it. The spiritual power used to sign the contract can come from the owner, from the spirit beast, or even from spirit stones, ghost stones..."

Using ghost stones is a good way. Newton has seen ghost stones in this small world. There are always some ghost cultivators who put ghost stones in their pockets instead of putting them in the Qiankun bag.

In addition, the space cracks will bring a little bit of everything, including some weapons and magic treasures from nowhere, as well as various materials from the underworld, and of course ghost stones.

There are not many such things, but if you look for them, you will always find them.

Chu Yang didn't have time to look for ghost stones. This kind of thing is too troublesome and a waste of time.

He suddenly thought that since the ghost beetle is a spirit body, isn't it equivalent to spiritual power itself?

And the food that ghost beetles eat is not spiritual power and other various energies.

Otherwise, how can they pull out ghost stones?

Thinking of this, Chu Yang immediately felt itchy.

Regardless of whether the boss contract can be used, he always has to try it.

"Teach me the Boss Contract, I'll try it first."

"Okay, but there is no spiritual power in this world, and the Spirit Stone and Ghost Stone may not be usable. I can't guarantee that the Boss Contract can be used successfully..."

"I know, I'm just trying it now, what if it succeeds..."

Chu Yang feels that dreams are still necessary.
