Longevity: Start with your own wine-making technique
Chapter 66: Obtaining the Best Spiritual Insect
After resting for a while, they took out food to replenish their energy and then set off again.
However, they stopped and started along the way, and had to stop and rest every half a day. It was not until five days later that they reached the edge of the Shiwan Mountains.
As soon as he entered the Shiwan Mountains, Long Xuan saw a piece of ancient trees in front of him. The trunks were thick and tall, and the branches were lush and leafy, forming a green ocean. When the wind blew, he could smell the scent of grass and trees, and the spiritual power.
The spiritual power here is much richer than that of the market, and it is definitely a great environment for cultivation.
But no family dared to settle here. Although the cultivation environment is good, they will be the first to bear the brunt of the beast tide.
You must know that the Shiwan Mountains are really too big. Why is it called the Shiwan Mountains?
It is because there are more than 100,000 mountains here, and the mountains are connected to the mountains, and the area can be imagined.
It is said that the Shiwan Mountains span countless regions, and the Far West is just a relatively small one among the borders.
In the vast forest, there are countless powerful spirit beasts and unknown mysteries hidden.
It is no exaggeration to say that the overall strength of spirit beasts is much stronger than that of humans.
After all, most humans are born as mortals who cannot practice, and the small part that can practice needs to grow through acquired efforts.
But spirit beasts are different. They are all born with combat power, and all abilities are inherited from the innate, without the need to learn acquired like humans, and they are particularly fertile, with more than ten children in a litter.
If the spirit beast world was not a mess and had low intelligence, humans would never be the masters of this world.
In this case, no family dared to settle down in the Ten Thousand Mountains.
As soon as they entered the edge of the Ten Thousand Mountains, the group finally slowed down their pace and began to save spiritual power, no longer using spiritual power to rush on the road.
Entering here is already a dangerous area, and fighting may occur at any time, which does not allow them to squander spiritual power as recklessly as they rush on the road.
Everyone became cautious, looking around with vigilant eyes from time to time.
Ma Lao was the most cautious. He reminded them at this time: "Everyone, be careful. The danger in the Ten Thousand Mountains does not only come from spirit beasts. In many cases, various insects are more dangerous than spirit beasts, and they are even more difficult to guard against."
The crowd nodded in agreement. Compared with spirit beasts, insects may not be that strong. The main reason is that they are too small and difficult to detect. If you are not careful, you will be hit. Therefore, they are much more difficult to deal with than huge spirit beasts.
But the lethality of this thing is not proportional to its size. Once you are hit, you are really in danger of death.
"Ma Lao, we would be careful even if you didn't say it, but why is your face so pale? If you are not feeling well, it's still in time to go back now."
"When you get to the depths, it will be too late for you to go back. We can't send you back." Li Laodao looked at Ma Lao's pale face and kindly reminded him.
Hearing this, Long Xuan also subconsciously looked at Ma Lao's face. Sure enough, his face was now frighteningly pale, bloodless, as if he was dying.
This is definitely not the face of a normal person. There is definitely something wrong with Ma Lao's body.
He was fine just now, but suddenly he became like this. Long Xuan felt that he was not sick. There must be some sudden reason, and it is probably related to this forest.
"Really? I feel good?"
Seeing everyone looking at him in surprise, Ma Lao touched his face, suddenly felt dizzy, and then fell to the ground uncontrollably.
It was because he suddenly fell that everyone found that there was a big mosquito lying on Ma Lao's back. Its six legs were very long, and the needle in its mouth was inserted straight into his vest. At this time, its belly was so high that it seemed to explode.
Han Mei, the old woman who was closest to him, was actually a needle player. She shot the big mosquito down in time, which saved Ma Lao's life.
Seeing the big mosquito falling from his back, Ma Lao turned pale and murmured in disbelief: "How is it possible? I was obviously very careful."
Thinking that he had just reminded others in the tone of an elder, but he was caught in the trap, his pale face instantly turned red. This time he was really embarrassed.
"You still remind others with these two tricks?" Zhang Ling covered her mouth and chuckled.
Long Xuan did not laugh, but showed a look of surprise at this time. This time he really experienced the horror of insects in this world.
In his previous life, he thought that the mosquito would not evolve the least.
If it did not evolve a toxin that could make people itch like crazy, would humans slap it to death?
It would be fine if it bit people and made them itch, but could it suck in one place and fly away? It didn't. A mosquito had to bite ten bags before it would stop. It would be strange if humans didn't slap it to death.
It also evolved a buzzing sound when flying, and it was born with a tracker, as if it was afraid that others would not know where it was.
If mosquitoes had not evolved these characteristics, humans would not care about them at all. Who cares about that little bit of blood? Mosquitoes can survive.
The mosquitoes in this world are very evolved. They fly without making any sound. No one knows when they land on Ma Lao's back.
And the bites are painless and unaware. They only leave a needle hole and keep sucking until they are full.
However, it is precisely because the mosquitoes in this world are so evolved that it is difficult for people to detect them, so that even a cautious person like Ma Lao was caught and almost sucked to death.
Long Xuan was shocked and hurriedly reached out his hand to his back and scanned it. After he didn't find anything, he quietly moved to the middle of the team.
In this way, if a mosquito attacks his back, his teammates behind him can detect it in time.
No, a slightly smarter mosquito will bite the person walking at the back first. How can it fly to the center of the crowd? Isn't it waiting to be exposed?
Thinking of this, Long Xuan felt more secure.
Not only Long Xuan, but also Mr. Ma's situation made everyone subconsciously check their bodies.
It would be okay if I didn't check it, but I found a lot of problems when I checked it.
For example, Zhang Ling just finished taunting Mr. Ma, but when she lowered her head, she saw a grass crawler lying on the bare part of her feet, with its mouth deeply embedded in her skin without knowing it. She was so frightened that she screamed: There was a scream of 800 decibels, and then he blushed with embarrassment.
The little medicine boy also had a leech lying on his leg at some point. He was discovered in time and had stepped on it several times, but he was still not trampled to death. This is also a leech in nature that is not easy to kill.
They were all inexperienced, and it was their first time to catch a duck on the shelf. Even though they were careful enough, they still missed the mark.
At this time, Long Xuan finally understood why the casual cultivators were so poor. Even if the forest was full of treasures, not many casual cultivators dared to enter!
He glanced at the young man named Ma Wu in the team. At this time, he was the only one standing there calmly, with his hands on his chest, looking at several people with disdain, without any intention of checking his body, and he was very confident.
Long Xuan looked at him thoughtfully. Although this young man was in simple clothes, he seemed to be very experienced here. Mr. Ma and Mr. Li were older than him for who knows how many rounds. How could they still be less experienced than him?
The young man's words and deeds were not like a normal casual cultivator, so Long Xuan had to be wary of him.
"Mr. Ma, are you okay?"
Li Laodao helped him up and asked with concern.
"It's okay, I just lost too much blood. I can make up for it by taking a blood-replenishing pill."
Mr. Ma took out a pill bottle from his storage bag, poured a red pill pill out of it, and then slowly put it into his mouth. Before long, blood started to appear on his face.
"Is everything okay? Just leave if nothing happens!"
"These little things are not fatal, but it's different when you go deep."
"When you reach the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, you should go back immediately. That is not a place where you can continue to move forward."
Long Qilin looked at several casual cultivators seriously, and then continued to move forward.
A group of casual cultivators also hurriedly followed...
This was just a small episode, another day passed, and Long Xuan and others finally saw their prey.
They were not wolves or jackals, but a group of white rabbits. They looked cute, their fur was white and soft, and there were quite a few of them.
Seeing everyone's lack of interest, Long Qilin had to explain: "If you want to hunt large spiritual beasts, you will be disappointed."
"You must know that this place is on the edge of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. The large spiritual beasts on the edge have long been hunted down by Gu cultivators, leaving only rabbits and mice that no one wants..."
"After the rabbits lost their natural enemies here, they relied on their strong fertility to multiply more and more, and soon completely occupied the marginal area."
"Now there are rabbits everywhere here. There are so many rabbits all over the mountains and plains that you can't kill them all."
"If we want to hunt large spiritual beasts, it will take us several days to travel at full speed."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions suddenly fell, and they actually had to go for several days.
Although rabbits are also spiritual animals, there is a reason why some species remain at the bottom of the food chain.
The only reason is because they are weak. This kind of spiritual beast has no powerful abilities, and the ancestor beasts are not strong either. Their descendants can only become prey for generations.
There really aren't any good spiritual insects on rabbits, otherwise there wouldn't be so many of them here and no one would care about them.
Long Xuan immediately used his golden finger ability to check the progress of the group of spirit rabbits.
In addition to the progress on the head of the spiritual rabbit, which represents its growth, the spiritual insects in the body will also show its progress.
But most of them are in the spiritual core. The spiritual core is where the spiritual beast stores its spiritual power. The spiritual core of the spiritual beast is equivalent to the spiritual sea of Gu cultivator.
Some spiritual cores can parasitize spiritual insects and are harmless to spiritual beasts. However, the vast majority of spiritual cores do not have spiritual insects, so the explosion rate can be said to be extremely low.
Even if spiritual insects were lucky enough to burst out, they would almost always be low-grade spiritual insects, with very few middle-grade spiritual insects.
For Gu cultivators who like to hunt, spiritual rabbits don’t have much good stuff but they run very fast. The time consumed in hunting spiritual rabbits is not proportional to the harvest. It can be said that the price/performance ratio is extremely low, which is why there are more and more spiritual rabbits here. .
After scanning around, Long Xuan found no satisfactory target, so he casually killed a rabbit carrying a medium-grade spiritual insect and prepared to eat it.
Anyway, Long Qilin also said that this place is full of rabbits and there are no large carnivorous spiritual beasts, so the smell of his barbecue will not attract danger.
It was just a middle-grade spirit worm, which was not of much value even in the eyes of a poor casual cultivator, so Long Xuan generously dug out the spirit core and spirit worm together.
But he was the first one to open the door. Seeing him harvesting a mid-grade spiritual insect when he came up, everyone was shocked and their interest was high.
"Hey! You're lucky. Just after hunting the first spiritual beast, a mid-grade spiritual insect burst out. What a good sign!" Long Qilin laughed.
"There's no way! He's a good person!" Long Xuan joked and said, "Since there are so many rabbits here, let's rest for a while before rushing on."
"I haven't eaten fresh meat for so long, I'm almost tired!"
"That's good!" Long Qilin agreed, "I was thinking the same thing. Although the spirit rabbits are not good, the meat is good."
"Besides, even if a mosquito is small, it's still meat, right? If you're lucky, you can get a few medium-grade spirit insects, which is also a small fortune."
Since Long Qilin nodded in agreement, the other casual cultivators had nothing to say. They all went to kill rabbits with great enthusiasm, all looking very excited.
Long Xuan just killed the first spirit rabbit and a medium-grade spirit insect exploded, which gave them the illusion that the explosion rate of medium-grade spirit insects was very high, which stimulated them and made them all enthusiastic.
However, reality soon gave them a blow. They killed a lot of spirit rabbits, and they were exhausted and panting, but only a few low-grade spirit insects exploded.
Especially Ma Lao, whose eyesight was as bad as ever, cleverly avoided all the correct options. Others at least had one or two low-grade spirit insects, but he didn't have a single spirit insect. At this time, he began to doubt his life.
The next few people no longer had any interest in hunting spirit rabbits. After eating barbecue, they were anxious to get on the road.
The reward of hunting spirit rabbits was seriously disproportionate to the effort. Who would be willing to take such a big risk to come to Shiwan Mountain once to harvest only a few low-grade spirit insects, which were not enough to cover the round-trip fare.
So in the anxious minds of the crowd, another two days passed.
On this day, after Long Xuan used the Life-Destroying Palm to kill a pink-haired rabbit, he grabbed its two big ears and lifted it in the air, laughing non-stop.
"You actually have the leisure to kill rabbits. What's so good about killing these things? There's nothing in their stomachs. Killing them is a waste of time. It's better to save some energy."
After seeing his actions, Ma Lao said.
Long Xuan smiled and put the pink rabbit into the storage bag. He casually said, "Nothing. I just practiced my palm skills with this little thing. How was my palm just now? Did it surprise you?"
He laughed secretly in his heart. How could these people know that this ordinary pink rabbit with negative combat power actually had a top-grade spiritual insect hidden in its body? It really gave him a big surprise.
It stands to reason that the rabbits here should not drop top-grade spiritual insects, but this pink rabbit may be a different species. The rest of the rabbits are white, only it is surprisingly pink. It may also be a mutant species.
In short, he really found a top-grade spiritual insect in this group of weak rabbits. Who could have thought of this?
I'm afraid that these teammates would never think of such a thing.
Before Ma Lao could reply, Long Qilin interrupted and said, "Your palm strike just now was good. It didn't cause any skin injuries to the prey, but it killed it with one blow."
"It's really a powerful ability suitable for hunting. It doesn't need to damage the hide. A complete hide will be more valuable."
Long Qilin showed a bit of solemnity. In his opinion, this spiritual technique is very powerful, and it kills people without blood. This is another spiritual technique he has never seen before, and he doesn't even know its name.
