A mortal’s journey to becoming an immortal begins by becoming the food for monsters and beasts.

Not long after the statement left, when Fu Sheng and Chen Xingwen were talking happily, a violent roar suddenly sounded in the backyard of the star-picking building.

Immediately after that, the powerful heaven and earth aura swept out, and the aura that rose to the sky formed a thick pillar of light visible to the naked eye.

Suddenly, the aura of heaven and earth near the entire Star Picking Tower was stirred and tumbled.

Under the violent shock, Fu Sheng only felt that the spiritual power in his body was also shaken by this strong vibration, and his heart worked several times before he pressed the restless aura in his body.

"Brother Chen, what happened here?" Fu Sheng asked in surprise.

Because Chen Xingwen's mana was much deeper than Fu Sheng, he suppressed the surging aura in his body one step ahead of Fu Sheng.

Chen Xingwen turned around and said to Fu Sheng with a solemn expression: "Please sit here for a while, Brother Fu, I'll go back!" After speaking, Chen Xingwen

flew straight away and went straight to the backyard of the Star Picking Tower.

And Fu Sheng naturally didn't make any moves in order to avoid suspicion, but he began to think about it in his heart.

It is said that this Xingxing Building is the Chen family's property, and this Xingfeng can be said to be the Chen family's base camp, could it be that there is really someone who is not afraid of death who came to the Chen family's territory to make trouble?

" Chen Xingwen asked loudly before he came to the backyard.

A grizzled young student was shocked when he saw Chen Xingwen asking in person, and said a little stumblingly: "Go back...... Less return...... Young master, yes...... It's Miao Lao! Miao Lao accidentally exploded when he was testing the spirit stone.

As soon as he heard that this movement was made by Miao Lao, Chen Xingwen immediately suppressed the anger in his heart and said helplessly: "Are you experimenting with increasing the speed of the spirit stone to release spiritual energy?"

Hearing Xiao Sheng's words, a look of pain flashed in Chen Xingwen's eyes, but after a while, he still sighed and said, "Forget it, as long as Miao Lao is not injured."

I'll go back to entertain the guests first, and you can clean up this backyard. After finishing speaking, Chen Xingwen made some more arrangements, and then turned back.

Within a cup of tea, Chen Xingwen came back.

"Brother Chen, what happened? Could it be that there are still people who dare to fight in the Chen family's place?" Fu Sheng stood up and said.

"Hey!

It was one of our Chen family's elders who accidentally made some mistakes during the experiment, which caused these riots. "

Oh, I don't know why the test is so powerful?" Fu Sheng was a little curious.

Chen Xingwen waved his hand and said helplessly: "Hey, this Miao elder of our Chen family can be regarded as a genius, and he has extremely high attainments in formation and refining weapons, if it weren't for the great favor of his father, he might not be able to stay in our Chen family."

It's just that a few years ago, Miao Lao somehow had a whim to increase the speed at which monks could absorb spiritual energy from low-level spirit stones, and this research had been going on for many years. But in the end, there was no breakthrough, and it was really sad to die.

After hearing Chen Xingwen's words, Fu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the terrifying power just now, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"Brother Fu, you also know that the most essential difference between low-level spirit stones, middle-level spirit stones and high-level spirit stones is that in addition to the amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy contained in the spirit stone itself, the most important point is the speed at which it releases spiritual energy.

But this Miao Lao doesn't know what to think, he has to let the low-level spirit stone have the same speed as the middle-level spirit stone to release spiritual energy, don't you say it's a fantasy.

Fu Sheng did not agree with Chen Xingwen's words, but became interested and said: "The Arabian Nights is not seen, but this Miao Lao of your Chen family should have taken the wrong path, I don't know if you can let me meet this

Miao Lao?" "See Miao Lao?" Chen Xingwen was a little puzzled.

"Yes, you also know that the qualifications for cultivating immortals in this place are really inferior, so over the years, I have put a lot of energy into this formation path.

And about this thing of Miao Lao's research, I have also thought about it, and I have some ideas in my heart, but unfortunately no one has confirmed it, and I have always regretted it.

Now that I have this opportunity, I also want to confirm with that Miao Lao. "

This!" Chen Xingwen was a little embarrassed for a while.

"Brother Chen, don't worry, it won't be in vain, just now Brother Chen said that Miao Lao is a senior who has made great achievements in both formation and refining, why don't you come up with Miao Lao's spirit stone for refining once?"

"What did Brother Fu say, if Brother Fu can really help Miao Lao complete this research or completely dispel this idea, I would like to thank Brother Chen, where can I still ask for Brother Fu's spirit stone."

Since Brother Fu has spoken, then I will agree, but this Miao Lao's temper is not good, and it is not up to me to decide whether Miao Lao sees you or not. Chen Xingwen said politely.

"As long as Brother Chen takes me there, I will try to convince this Miao Lao. Fu Sheng Chengzhu said in his chest.

"Alright then, in that case, Brother Fu, please come with me. Saying that, Chen Xingwen took Fu Sheng all the way to the backyard of the Star Picking Tower.

As soon as he arrived in the backyard, Fu Sheng was immediately attracted by a room on the side, only to see that this room had been crushed by the huge impact just now, and there were many people around who were picking up the star building and were quickly rescuing the things buried under the house.

On the side of the small courtyard, there was an old man with a withered face and unkempt silver hair who was holding a spirit stone in his hand and looking at it over and over again, and the spirit stone was painted with symbols by the old man like a ghost drawing.

The strange thing is that there seems to be some kind of pattern in this messy symbol, but when you look closely, it feels like a child's graffiti.

This old man is Miao Lao, and his cultivation is only the seventh layer of the Qi refining period.

According to Fu Sheng's assumption, the young master of the Chen family attaches so much importance to this person, at least he must cultivate in the foundation building period.

But I didn't expect that this Miao Lao was just a monk in the Qi refining period, which shows that this Miao Lao is indeed unique in the formation and the way of refining, otherwise he would not be able to deserve such attention from the first immortal cultivator family in Zhongxi Country.

Miao Lao, who was immersed in his own world, did not notice the arrival of Chen Xingwen and Fu Sheng.

"Elder Miao, I heard that you failed the test just now, and you didn't suffer any injuries. Chen Xingwen said gently.

Hearing Chen Xingwen's words, Miao Lao raised his head and saw that it was Chen Xingwen, and then continued to lower his head and study the spirit stone in his hand, and said with a salty and indifferent mouth: "Thanks to the young master's concern, the old man is not injured, but he is ...... No, who is this guy? Didn't I say that no outsiders in my backyard are allowed to enter?"

Halfway through speaking, Miao Lao suddenly saw Fu Sheng standing behind Chen Xingwen, and his face immediately became gloomy, and his face was full of displeasure.

Chen Xingwen smiled at Fu Sheng a little embarrassedly, after all, the guest elders of his family lost the face of his young master in front of Fu Sheng, and he was still a little embarrassed.

Chen Xingwen was about to open his mouth to explain Fu Sheng's identity, but unexpectedly, Fu Sheng strode in front of Miao Lao.

"There is a strange insect in the world, called the spirit ant.

Its nature is ferocious but feeds on the aura between heaven and earth, spirit stones, etc., this kind of soul erosion ant can secrete a pale golden spirit erosion gold juice, this gold juice has an incredible disintegrating effect on spirit stones, and can make spirit stones decompose into the most primitive aura.

Moreover, if this Spirit Eclipse Gold Juice is added to many forbidden demon arrays, the power will also be a few points stronger out of thin air, in addition to this Spirit Eclipse Gold Juice, there are many wonderful uses, but it is a pity that this Spirit Eclipse Ant is a rare spirit insect in the world, and now it is almost extinct, I don't know if Miao Lao is right?" Fu Sheng said casually with confidence.

Hearing Fu Sheng's words, Miao Lao glanced at Fu Sheng in some surprise and smiled: "I can't see that your little doll still has some knowledge."

"Miao Lao, don't be in a hurry to praise me, I haven't finished talking yet."

If he guessed correctly, Miao Lao wanted to use this Consciousness Trace Formation to accurately control the measurement of the Eclipse Gold Juice used, so as to find the exact amount.

After all, in your opinion, the amount of this Spirit Eclipse Gold Juice is too small to disintegrate the shell of the spirit stone, if the amount is too large, it will cause the spirit stone to disintegrate instantly, and it will cause the violent shock of the heaven and earth aura just now, am I right.

Fu Sheng said as he pointed to the spirit stone in Miao Lao's hand, the messy ghost drawing talisman turned out to be some kind of magic circle called the Cognitive Trace Formation Array.

Hearing Fu Sheng's words, Miao Lao was completely shocked.

Now that he has judged that he is using the Eclipse Gold Juice to conduct research, it is not difficult to deduce what he has to do from the Eclipse Ant's Eclipse Gold Juice.

But this kid actually recognized the unpopular formation of knowing the micro-amount formation after just two glances, which shows that this kid's attainments in the formation are also not low.

"Yo, I've met an expert, where did you find this kid young master?" asked Miao Lao with some curiosity.

And Chen Xingwen was also relieved when he heard Fu Sheng's talk, and told him about his experience of acquaintance with Fu Sheng and the fact that Fu Sheng is now worshipping under Shao Chunyi in Xunling Pavilion.

"It turned out to be the tall feet of the Shao Fairy of Xunling Pavilion. Since you kid can analyze the old man's method, you must have studied this aspect too, why don't you tell me what you think?"

"That kid is also ugly, presumably I don't say that the predecessors should have discovered it."

No matter how precisely the dose of this Spirit Eclipse Gold Juice was controlled, once the shell of the Spirit Stone began to disintegrate, then it would instantly radiate to the whole, and there was no way to remedy it.

Miao Lao pondered deeply: "Yes, it stands to reason that the control of measurement after using this knowledge to raise a small amount of array should have been accurate to the limit, but it is really puzzling for the old man to still have such a thing happening." I

saw Fu Sheng said lightly: "In fact, the fundamental reason is not the inaccuracy of the measurement, but the disintegration itself is affected by the whole body."

The shell of this spirit stone is originally a whole, once a point is disintegrated, it will radiate to the entire shell in an instant, and then cause the entire shell to collapse, and it will form a violent explosion that bursts out of the aura instantly. "

Impossible!" Miao

Lao stood up with an excited expression, "The old man once saw the scene of the Spirit Eater devouring the Spirit Stone Mine with his own eyes, and there was no scene of that kind of spiritual energy explosion happening, it must be that my measurement is not accurate enough."

You kid Hugh is going to talk nonsense here, disturbing the old man's thoughts, and the old man can't spare you.

Fu Sheng sneered, and said disdainfully: "What did you see with your own eyes?Are you sure?Where did you see it?How far away did

you see it?Did you really see the spirit eclipse ant using the spirit eclipse gold juice to disintegrate the shell of the spirit stone?"

"I'm just ......" Miao Lao's blurted out words were suffocated back, "You kid has a lot of eyes, and you dare to take my words."

Fu Sheng secretly regretted it in his heart, but he said: "Although the younger generation didn't see it with his own eyes, it was nothing more than these possibilities when I thought about it.

The first possibility is that the spirit stone mine was originally a waste mine that had been mined by someone, after all, it was not that the younger generation looked down on the cultivation of the predecessors, but it was just that if a monk like the predecessor really encountered the spirit erosion ant colony, it would be impossible to survive, so the predecessor must have picked it after the spirit erosion ant left.

Fu Sheng's words were speechless, indeed as Fu Sheng said, he did accidentally see the scene of this spirit erosion ant running out of the spirit stone mine, and then waited for a few days to go in and check only to find that there was not a single spirit stone in the spirit stone mine.

"Of course, there is a second possibility, you must know that this soul eater ant is a social creature, and it is often tens or even hundreds of millions of people when it is dispatched.

Therefore, even if the shell of the spirit stone was disintegrated by the spirit eater ants, those spiritual qi that were not bound by the shell would be swallowed up by countless spirit eaters in an instant, and there would be no chance of breaking out at all.

Fu Sheng's words were like a drop of water dripping into the calm water, which instantly stirred up layers of ripples, and it was also like Miao Lao's state of mind.

And this also completely made Miao Lao fall into self-doubt, could

it be that I was really wrong? Could it be that as this kid said, there is no way for the shell of this spirit stone to disintegrate a part of it and speed up the release of spiritual energy

? At this moment, I only heard Fu Sheng continue: "Besides, has Miao Lao ever thought about such a question? This Spirit Erosion Gold Juice is an extremely rare and valuable thing, and in terms of value alone, it is even much higher than that middle-grade spirit stone.

Even if Miao Lao really used this spirit eclipse gold juice to research a method that could make the low-rank spirit stone release speed in the aura not weaker

than the middle-rank spirit stone, would this method be a bit more than worth the loss? After all, the cost of this method is already higher than that of the middle-rank spirit stone, so isn't it good to use the middle-rank spirit stone directly, the amount of spiritual energy is so much more than that of the low-rank spirit stone.

Fu Sheng's last words completely stunned Miao Lao.

In an instant, his eyes lost focus, his expression was dazed, and he was about to fall to the ground when he staggered.

Miao Lao's heart kept repeating what Fu Sheng had just said, and kept questioning why he wanted to study such a useless thing.

"Yes, not to mention that there has been no progress

for so many years, even if such a method is really researched, what can it be? This kind of thing is more valuable than a middle-grade spirit stone, and the amount of spiritual energy is not as much as that of a middle-grade spirit stone, why should I study this kind of thing for so many years?

Even if it is really researched, what can I do, I actually wasted so much time on this useless thing.

Chen Xingwen saw that Fu Sheng's words made Miao Lao's expression stunned for an instant, and even his eyes began to dilute, and he was immediately shocked.

"Miao Lao, Miao Lao, are you okay?

Miao Lao!" Under Chen Xingwen's call, Miao Lao finally slowly came back to his senses and looked around a little blankly.

After seeing Fu Sheng's figure, he directly saluted and said: "Thank you Daoyou for your guidance, if it weren't for Daoyou, I don't know how many years I would have to spend in this dead end."

Fu Sheng hurriedly supported Miao Lao and said embarrassedly: "The seniors must not be like this, the juniors can't afford such a big gift from the seniors, the juniors are just talking nonsense, the seniors must not take it to heart."

"Where did Daoyou say, if I Miao Chengren didn't have the guidance of Daoyou, I don't know how much time I would waste, how could it be nonsense? I don't

think it's an exaggeration, no matter what, this favor is written down by the old man, and there will be a good reward in the future." Miao Lao said solemnly.

Immediately after that, Miao Lao saw Chen Xingwen with a nervous face, and couldn't help but say: "Young master, I'm sorry for the Chen family......! It's really ......"

said and said that many emotions such as guilt and shame emerged in his heart, and under the interweaving of these emotions, Miao Lao actually cried.
