Mortal Seeking Immortal

Four years ago, during the competition for the Foundation Establishment Pill, the spirit beetles raised by Ye Zhou began to sleep. In order to wake up the spirit beetles as soon as possible, Ye Zhou also specially prepared spiritual liquid for them.

What Ye Zhou didn't expect was that the spirit beetle placed in the spiritual liquid had slept for four full years. By now, the spirit beetle's aura had exceeded the hill!

In the insect breeding room, Ye Zhou was carefully observing the spirit beetle lying in the groove, and suddenly found that the spirit beetle that had been lying dead for four years twitched its legs slightly.

Ye Zhou was stunned for a moment, thinking he had seen it wrong. Just as he was about to take a closer look, he saw the spirit beetle that was originally lying on its back began to struggle to turn over, using its legs and claws together to take off the thin shell that covered its body.

Ye Zhou's heartbeat accelerated wildly!

The spirit beetle finally woke up.

After shedding its shell, the spirit beetle turns into a dark golden color. Only the back shell is covered with some tiny black spots, which are difficult to spot unless you look closely.

The moment the spirit beetle ended its transformation period, its consciousness immediately locked onto its master Ye Zhou, who was standing in front of it. Its pale golden transparent wings popped out from under its back shell with a swishing sound, buzzing like sharp arrows. He broke through the air and flew towards Ye Zhou, flying around Ye Zhou excitedly for several times.

Ye Zhou stretched out his palm, and the spirit beetle folded its wings obediently and fell into Ye Zhou's hand. It rubbed its head against Ye Zhou's palm to express its intimacy with Ye Zhou.

With a smile in his eyes, Ye Zhou gently touched the small head of the spirit beetle with his index finger, "You glutton finally woke up."

Then Ye Zhou began to use his spiritual consciousness to carefully investigate the situation of the spirit beetles.

Compared with four years ago, the flying speed of the spirit beetle has increased tremendously. What surprised Ye Zhou the most was that the spirit beetle, which was only in the early stage of foundation building just now, after its transformation, its cultivation level jumped to the middle stage of foundation building!

"Little guy, come and try your fighting prowess!"

"Whoosh!"

As soon as Ye Zhou finished speaking, the spirit beetle cut through the air and instantly flew from Ye Zhou's palm into the air, much faster than Ye Zhou's Wind Chaser Sword.

Ye Zhou patted the storage bag, and a high-grade Qi-training flying sword shot out from the storage bag with a whooshing sound.

Ye Zhou gave an order, and the spirit beetles in the sky shot towards the flying sword like sharp arrows. It only took three breaths of time for the flying sword to land on the flying sword. Chew it off in the middle and fall to the ground with a clang.

Ye Zhou's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand to release a protective shield that was about an inch thick. As soon as the spirit beetle's "swishing" sound landed on the protective shield, a hole the size of a grain of rice appeared on the protective shield. Before the shield could repair the gap, Ye Zhou's eyes lit up. , the spirit beetle folded its wings and had already penetrated into the protective shield.

Ye Zhou removed the protective shield, raised his hand and swung an ice blade about a foot long towards the spirit beetle. With a 'bang', the ice blade shattered, and the spirit beetle stood unscathed and could even comb its wings leisurely.

A hot fireball was shot out, and the fireball exploded with a "boom" sound. The spirit beetle within the explosion range of the fireball remained motionless, and even released an "incomparably comfortable" emotion towards Ye Zhou, as if the attack of the fireball just now hit it. It's like basking in the sun.

Ye Zhou patted the storage bag, and the Zhufeng Sword flashed with sword light and flew to Ye Zhou with a whooshing sound.

Ye Zhou waved his hand and lightly slashed at the spirit beetle with the Wind-Chasing Sword. With a 'clang' sound, the Wind-Chasing Sword bounced back slightly as if it had hit something hard.

Ye Zhou waved his hand again, and the Wind-Chasing Sword slashed hard at the spirit beetle. There was a 'boom' sound, and smoke and dust were everywhere. When the smoke dissipated, the Wind-Chasing Sword cracked the ground under the spirit beetle, but the spirit lying on the ground was The beetle was unscathed, and even casually raised its front paws to flick the dust off its body.

With a thought in Ye Zhou's mind, a dazzling light emitted from the blade of the Wind-Chasing Sword, and a crescent-shaped sword energy was released from the Wind-Chasing Sword. With a 'swish' sound, it quickly slashed towards the spirit beetle that was still flicking dust.

The spirit beetle seemed to be provoked to fight, and flew up with a buzzing sound, biting the sword energy, and in the blink of an eye, it swallowed the sword energy alive.

"This...this...this...is too outrageous!"

Ye Zhou's eyes showed surprise!

"The spirit beetle is worthy of being the 19th spirit insect on the list of ancient spirit insects. It is only in the middle stage of foundation building, but its strength is so terrifying that it can almost ignore all my current attacks."

With Ye Zhou's current strength, even if he didn't rely on Xiao Shan, he could definitely fight back and forth with the casual cultivators in the early stages of foundation building, and even have a chance to kill them, but there was nothing he could do against the spirit beetles.

If he encountered an enemy like a spirit beetle now, he would probably be in despair.

"It seems that this single spirit beetle is enough to deal with the monks in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. If we rely on sneak attacks, even the monks in the later stage of Foundation Establishment will fall into its mouth. We have not raised it for so long. Finally, we have one more level to deal with the crisis." The killer weapon!”

Ye Zhou put away the Wind-Chasing Sword and waved to the spirit beetle. The spirit beetle fell into his hand affectionately and rubbed its little head against it.

Ye Zhou sighed: "The spirit beetle ranked 19th on the list of ancient spirit insects is so powerful. I wonder how powerful the spirit beetle ranked in the top 18 must be?"

"It's a pity that I only have one spirit beetle. According to the records in the jade slip, spirit beetles are mostly gregarious creatures, and it is rare to see one acting alone. If you can have a group of spirit beetles, you don't have to rely on sneak attacks to fight against monks in the late stage of foundation building. Just one encounter can be easily swallowed up by them all."

However, Ye Zhou could only think about it. Spirit beetles are ancient spiritual insects that have long since disappeared from the world of immortality. He was extremely lucky to get this one. Perhaps only those who are favored by heaven can get a group of spirit beetles. Bar.

Ye Zhou was about to put the spirit beetle into the small compartment that had been built long ago, but he saw the spirit beetle spread its wings and flew around in front of Ye Zhou, and from time to time it flew to the stone door and turned around, as if it wanted to go out.

Ye Zhou had a doting smile on his face: "Do you want to go out for some fresh air, little thing? Well, since you have been sleeping for four years, I will take you out for a while."

The moment Ye Zhou waved his hand to open the stone door, the spirit beetle flew out of the stone door with a "buzz" sound and flew to the insect breeding room next door. The spirit insects in the insect breeding room began to lie on the ground in unison and dared not move.

The spirit beetle slowed down and flew proudly over the heads of the spirit insects, like a king reviewing the army.

Suddenly, the spirit beetle that had been flying forward seemed to sense something, and suddenly stopped above a small compartment where spirit insects were raised and looked down, as if it was very interested in the spirit insects in that small compartment.

Ye Zhou took a few steps forward and looked into the small compartment, where he saw the centipede-transformed egg quietly placed.

The spirit beetle landed in the small compartment, folded its wings, sniffed the centipede's egg, and poked the egg affectionately with its claws, then turned to look at Ye Zhou expectantly.

Ye Zhou felt the greed of the spirit beetle, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Seeing that the spirit beetle was so close, he was afraid that it couldn't help but give the centipede's egg a few bites, so he reached out and gently pinched the spirit beetle and said, "Don't eat this casually..."
