Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming
Chapter 98 Thousands of Insects Refining Spirits
After taking care of 82 acres of low-grade spiritual fields, we will go find some wind spirit grass to plant tomorrow.
Li Mu returned to the villa compound and entered a sealed stone room.
Li Mu sat in front of a stone table and took out the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace, Amber Jade and Soul-nurturing Urn from the Jiuzang Storage Spirit Beads and placed them on the table.
Picking up the amber jade, Li Mu looked hesitant.
The first operation is to unblock the fourth-level demon insect, then catalyze the insect eggs, and refine the cup spirit. The series of steps are a bit complicated. If there is a problem in any step in the middle, it will be a cakewalk!
It would be difficult to find this kind of opportunity again!
Li Mu watched the operation arrangements constantly being deduced in his mind. With his powerful soul and rich experience in refining weapons, making puppets, and drawing talismans, a look of determination gradually appeared on his face.
It is not Li Mu's character to be forward-looking and hesitant. He opened his consciousness and stared at the amber jade. He took out the fifth-level thunder talisman spirit book from the storage compartment, input his spiritual power, and used its thunder power to generate thunder fire, which could melt the amber jade.
【Gold Amber Stone】
[Grade: Fourth-grade spiritual object]
[Characteristics: Time stasis, impervious to water and fire]
[The amber stone condensed by the overflowing sap of the fourth-level golden amber wood has the effect of sealing time and freezing the vitality. It is not invaded by water and fire. It can be melted by roasting it with thunder and fire. 】
The attribute information of the amber jade is presented in the character's virtual frame. Li Mu holds the fifth-level thunder talisman spirit book in his hand, injecting a large amount of spiritual power to generate thunder spirit energy. A large number of blue electric snakes gather out and generate a blue thunder fire.
Under the control of Li Mu's spiritual consciousness, the amber jade flew up on its own and suspended above the blue thunder fire. The solidified golden amber quickly turned into streaks of green smoke and dissipated, filling the airtight stone room with a scent of amber.
Under the scorching heat of the blue thunder fire, the golden amber stone melted rapidly, and the colorful phantom butterfly encapsulated in it was gradually revealed.
With a flash of consciousness, Li Mu immediately remotely controlled the 'Soul-nurturing Urn' to fly up, opened the lid of the urn, quickly swiped the belly of the completely unsealed colorful phantom butterfly, took out a ball of insect eggs and put it into the Soul-nurturing Urn.
Li Mu's spiritual consciousness controlled the soul-nurturing urn to prevent living souls from escaping from the soul-nurturing urn, and then observed the changes of the insect eggs in the soul-nurturing urn. He saw that more than a thousand insect eggs unconsciously and automatically absorbed the living souls in the soul-nurturing urn. The power of the soul and vitality gradually grew stronger.
[Phantom Butterfly Eggs]
[Level: Fourth-Level Demonic Insect]
[Characteristics: Deadly Dreams, Soul-Absorbing Souls]
[Status: Weak vitality, soul power is being injected into the body and recovering. 】
[The unhatched phantom demon insect egg is a fourth-level demon insect that specializes in psychedelic creatures and steals souls for food. Its soul-generating power is fully recovering and is expected to hatch successfully in the 27th day. 】
With the magical talent - identifying all spirits, the state of the insect eggs was completely revealed. Li Mu clearly saw the real-time state of the insect eggs. His worried expression was wiped away, and he couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
Most of the more than a thousand phantom demon insect eggs are alive. After they all hatch and are raised for a while, this number will be enough to put into the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace to refine the cup spirit.
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, covered the soul-nurturing jars, and placed them directly on the table to let them recover slowly.
Putting the Thunder Spirit Talisman Book into the storage compartment, Li Mu's eyes fell on the corpse of the colorful phantom butterfly, frowning and thinking about how to refine it into a demon insect puppet. The puppet recipe of the Thousand Machine Puppet Technique does not include the puppet refining method of small demon insects. There are only methods for refining large monster insects, such as the Nine Mother Earth Spider and the Death Demon Praying Mantis Puppet.
The body of the colorful phantom butterfly is too small to be implanted with the puppet source core.
Thinking of something, Li Mu took out the coolie puppet from the Jiuzang spirit bead, opened the coolie puppet's mid-drive puppet source, and took out the puppet source core refined from the fourth-level soul wood spirit seed. This is a unique The little-finger-sized puppet core is just right for use on the palm-sized colorful phantom butterfly.
Li Mu's eyes shone, and he immediately became energetic. He took out the spiritual materials specially used for refining the demon body puppet from the Jiuzang Spirit Pearl, demon bones, fishy liquid, carving knives, utensils,..., and other miscellaneous things. Spiritual objects and tools began to transform the body of the colorful phantom butterfly and carve puppet patterns.
Li Mu used his spiritual consciousness as a carving knife, used the seven-color phantom demon butterfly corpse as the base, carved the puppet as the pattern, broke off the demon butterfly's colorful wings, replaced them with third-order demon bone carved feathers, and used the original core of the soul wood puppet as the main..., after three days. After refining, it was finally made into a small and exquisite Phantom Butterfly Puppet.
No, it is no longer a phantom butterfly, but a second-order miniature insect-shaped puppet refined from the fourth-order phantom butterfly insect corpse, the third-order demon bone feather, and the fourth-order soul wood spirit species puppet source core.
It does not have the terrifying soul-stealing ability of the colorful phantom butterfly, nor the attacking ability of the combat puppet. It is a miniature reconnaissance puppet that is only half the size of a palm and flies extremely fast.
Amidst the subtle chirping of "Sisi", the butterfly and insect puppets were flying around Li Mu at a high speed, sometimes left, sometimes right, sometimes up and sometimes down. The speed was as fast as thunder and difficult to see with the naked eye.
The butterfly insect puppet flew rapidly for a while, its petite body flashing with light, and finally lost its battery life, and slowly landed in Li Mu's palm.
Li Mu sighed. The design idea of this butterfly insect puppet was correct. It fully met the design requirements. The concealment, speed, and body flexibility were all sufficient. The only problem was battery life.
The butterfly-insect puppet must be driven by spirit stones, but its body is too small. It can only use three small-finger-sized fragments of spirit from a medium-grade spiritual stone to drive the butterfly-insect puppet.
The butterfly insect puppet flew at full speed, which was comparable to the flying speed of the Qingyun Spirit Boat. This small amount of spiritual stone was not enough for it to fly fifty miles.
Although the Butterfly Puppet has no combat effectiveness, it is a powerful reconnaissance tool suitable for use in some special occasions. With Li Mu's spiritual consciousness, his observation distance has been greatly increased.
"Well! If you have a chance, I'll get another high-grade spiritual stone, or cut it into pieces and use it." Li Mu put away the butterfly and insect puppet.
With this successful experience in transforming puppets, Li Mu immediately opened up his mind and no longer limited himself to refining puppets using the puppet formula provided by Qianji Puppet Tao. Instead, he chose his own design and refined puppets according to his own ideas. .
For example, make the sentry spider puppet larger in size, increase the ability to fly, increase the eight-limbed wooden legs to bounce, hug, etc., open a hidden slot in the abdomen to hold the magic talisman, and add a Trigger the pattern and place a thunder talisman or fire bomb talisman.
With such a transformation, the sentry spider puppet immediately has the lethality to take off and explode itself.
When a dense swarm of sentry spider puppets swarm towards the enemy, swooping down to hug the face, arms, legs, and body, and then trigger the thunder talisman, fire bomb talisman, etc. in their abdomen, and self-destruct one after another, the scene should not be too beautiful.
When Li Mu thought of this application scenario, his heart was immediately moved, and he couldn't wait to devote himself to the transformation of the puppet.
…
Next, Li Mu devoted himself to a pastoral life like seclusion and planted 82 acres of spiritual fields with wind spirit grass. On weekdays, he watered the spiritual rain. In his free time, he refined puppets and helped Wanbao Pavilion refine several spiritual weapons. After purchasing monster meat and practicing the soul-devouring health-preserving art, after eight or nine days, I took some time to fly to Xiaoliang Mountain to inspect the tea fields.
Li Mu's life at Nanyin Villa was both fulfilling and leisurely.
Time flies and twenty-seven days pass by.
Li Mu got into the secret room of the stone house and observed the hatching of the eggs of the fourth-order colorful phantom butterfly in the soul-nurturing urn.
The souls in the soul-nurturing urn have long been used up, and the eggs of the phantom monsters have broken out of their shells. They are like small white caterpillars. When crawling, their bodies disappear and appear. It's so magical, but their bodies exude a dangerous energy. Auras, weak soul-sucking fluctuations, emitted from them, carrying an illusion-controlling aura.
Almost all the Phantom Butterflies have broken out of their shells, it’s almost time!
There are more than 1,200 phantom butterfly larvae, how many souls must be absorbed to raise them to maturity! Li Mu doesn't have the ability to raise so many, so just one is enough.
Immediately, Li Mu poured more than 1,200 phantom butterfly larvae in the soul-raising jar into the Hundred-Refining Cup Furnace. Then, he covered the lid of the cup-furnace and injected spiritual power to activate the Hundred-Refining Cup Furnace's Thousand Insects Soul-Seizing Machine. Array.
With the injection of a large amount of spiritual power, the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace was activated, and the Thousand Insect Soul Seizing Formation was activated, releasing a red blood god cup essence, and more than 1,200 phantom demon butterfly insects were collectively injected with chicken blood. , the collective was boiling, and started fighting crazily.
The Hundred Refining Cup Furnace was buzzing. As the Thousand Insects Soul Seizing Formation was activated, the furnace body shook violently. The base of the furnace was unstable. A pattern of the furnace was dissipating rapidly. The entire furnace body seemed to explode. , spirituality weakens rapidly.
Li Mu was startled, and poured spiritual power into one hand to maintain the thousand insects soul-seizing formation. He threw his spiritual consciousness into the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace, and at the same time injected spiritual power into the weapon refining pattern to prevent the weapon pattern from dissipating...
Time passed bit by bit, Li Mu's seconds were like years, and his spiritual power was consumed hugely.
Li Mu's face turned as white as snow, and he secretly complained that if the Thousand Insects Soul Seizing Formation did not end soon, he would not be able to hold on any longer.
The foundation of the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace has begun to collapse, and this cup spirit refining will be its final glory.
Hold on!
"Chi" A clear insect sound suddenly sounded in the Bailian Cup Furnace, as if celebrating a victory, full of pride.
Hearing this slight sound, the sound of thousands of insects fighting in the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace had also ended. Li Mu's spirit perked up and he immediately beamed with joy. It was finally over.
Li Mu swept his consciousness, confirmed the situation, and immediately dispersed to support the Bailian Cup Furnace with spiritual power.
There was a crisp sound of "Boom", and the Hundred Refining Cup Furnace was like a tight spring. The furnace walls exploded in all directions, turning into countless fragments and powder. In the center of the furnace, a blood-red phantom butterfly larva appeared. It is more than five or six times larger than the previous white larvae.
"叽" The Hundred Refining Cup Furnace suddenly exploded, startling the bloody larvae, and didn't know why.
The blood-colored larvae discovered Li Mu, and a pair of black eyes immediately became bloodshot and turned scarlet. They exuded a fierce and bloody aura, and a powerful spiritual illusion rushed out.
Li Mu was in a trance for a moment, then quickly woke up and was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.
If he hadn't upgraded the God Tempering Art to level 10 and acquired the divine soul defensive magical power of self-consolidation of the divine soul, he would have definitely been hit by that attack just now.
Although this little guy has just hatched, his strength cannot be underestimated!
Li Mu looked at the little guy with both eyes, feeling both happy and scared. If he was given some time to grow up, he would definitely not be able to withstand his innate ability, now! It has no chance!
"Ji?" The blood-colored demonic insect cried out in confusion. His invincible hunting method actually failed. What's going on?
"Little guy, are you not convinced? Try mine!" Li Mu chuckled, pinched the Spirit Control Seal Technique in his hand, and a divine soul light penetrated into the body of the bloody phantom butterfly larvae.
The next moment, a bloody insect shadow with the seal of the Spirit Controlling Contract appeared in Li Mu's sea of consciousness.
Through this Spirit Control Seal, Li Mu can sense Chong Ying's emotions, such as confusion, hunger, loss, doubt,..., and other small emotions.
"Little guy, are you hungry? Call daddy and I'll give you something good to eat!" Li Mu stretched out his index finger, gently pushed the bloody larva's head, and said with a smile.
"Chiji!" The little guy seemed to understand, and called twice. The seal of the spirit control was formed. It could no longer bear any hostility towards Li Mu, only kindness and obedience.
"Haha! Of course it's good food, but I don't know if you can eat it. I'm afraid you won't be able to digest it!" Li Mu laughed, and after reading the little guy's attribute information, he immediately felt relieved.
Li Mu took out a jade bottle from the Jiuzang Spirit Bead. This jade bottle contained the spirit of a third-level demonic beast - the blue-eyed gray tiger. It came from the foundation-building trade fair and was obtained by trading a low-grade red gold spiritual sword.
Li Mu originally planned to use the divine refining and spirit-melting method to refine the spirit of the demonic tiger into a spiritual weapon to refine a low-level spiritual treasure with a weapon spirit. However, because there were no suitable materials for refining the weapon and he had not yet tamed the demonic beast. Hunhun's method, in order to avoid damaging the soul, has not let go.
Now! Isn’t the little guy hungry? This demon tiger spirit is just suitable to be its food.
After Li Mu took out the jade bottle, he put it in front of the little guy, and then, with a "pop" sound, he opened the cap of the soul-sucking bottle.
As soon as the soul bottle was opened, a Canghu spirit roared and was about to come out. Immediately when the Canghu spirit saw the blood-colored demonic insect, its roaring state stopped abruptly, just like a mouse seeing a cat. With a "swish", it crawled back into the spirit bottle. In the soul bottle.
When the little guy saw Canghu's spirit, his dark eyes flashed with blood, and his figure flew out like a spring.
With a "poof" sound, the little guy was too fat. His plump body got stuck in the mouth of the jade bottle, and his little butt twisted and twisted, looking very funny.
"Hahaha! Little greedy boy, you're stuck!" Seeing this scene, Li Mu laughed happily.
However, due to the little guy's innate attributes, even if it doesn't get into the soul bottle, it can still eat the Canghu spirit. Now that it is stuck, it just blocks the mouth of the bottle, and the Canghu spirit has nowhere to escape.
"Well! It's time to give you a name, what should you call it! Xue Shan? Spicy strips?" Li Mu, who had a useless name, looked at the blood-colored phantom butterfly and insect's head stuck in the mouth of the bottle and twisting its buttocks.
"Jiji! Gugu!" The blood-colored demonic insect blocked the mouth of the bottle and sucked in the soul power of Canghu's soul. The blood-colored little butt twisted even more happily.
With the absorption of a large amount of soul power, the blood color on its body was quickly starting to fade. Li Mu looked at the attribute information of the little guy and immediately decided to call it 'Xiao Bai'.
The blood essence in the Blood God Cup is being rapidly absorbed by Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai has successfully advanced to the fifth level insect spirit, and it will soon return to its original snow-white color.
