Mortal Seeking Immortal

Ye Zhou took out two bottles of ghost pills from the storage bag and praised Xiaoshan, saying, "You did a good job. This bottle of ghost pills is a reward for you. Use it to practice well. Use the other bottle of ghost pills to share with other evil spirits. Urge them to practice well and never slack off."

Xiaoshan was surprised and took the two bottles of ghost pills from Ye Zhou with both hands respectfully: "Thank you, Master."

Ye Zhou waved his sleeves and said, "Go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoshan turned into a black gas and drilled into Ye Zhou's Hundred Ghost Banner.

After placing Mr. Shu in one of the bamboo houses, Mr. Shu stroked his beard while looking at the layout of the house and smiled: "You are so thoughtful, little boy."

"It's all due. You saved my life twice. Your kindness is greater than heaven!"

Mr. Shu said: "The old devil's storage bag may contain tracking items left by the righteous sect. You should wait a few days before checking. Don't be too anxious. If you are discovered by Fairy Xiyu now, I'm afraid you will be in danger of death again!"

Ye Chen just felt a chill.

He was planning to check the head's storage bag next to see if there were any good treasures besides the Blood-Crying Ghost Head Knife.

As expected, the old ginger is still spicy, and caution makes the boat last for a thousand years.

Mr. Shu's reminder made him change his mind. In the next few days, Ye Zhou built several compartments, placed various spiritual insects in different compartments, and fed a lot of insect feeding pills and spiritual plants.

Ye Zhou came to the compartment where two Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders were kept and fed them some bad eggs of spirit beetles. Although the Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders were still very afraid of the breath of spirit beetles on the eggs, they seemed to have gotten used to swallowing spirit beetle eggs. Now, without Ye Zhou's order, the Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders would actively swallow the bad eggs.

While feeding, Ye Zhou checked the status of the Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders again and found that they became much more lively. Apart from that, there were no other changes.

Ye Zhou suddenly felt that the spirit beetle eggs he had fed before were in vain, and he couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Ye Zhou caught a glimpse of the Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders that had swallowed the spirit beetle eggs today, and did not return to the corner to digest the food peacefully, but sneaked close to each other.

Ye Zhou's heart moved, thinking that the two spiders might be about to change.

Who knew that the next moment, Ye Zhou saw the male spider nimbly climbed onto the back of the female spider.

Ye Zhou's expression was slightly stunned. Could it be that the spirit insects need to make specific movements before they change?

Before Ye Zhou could wait for too long to wonder, the next second, after seeing the male spider's mating action, Ye Zhou's face turned red, he coughed awkwardly twice, turned around and walked towards the compartment where the spirit beetles were placed, muttering: "Could it be that eating too many bad eggs of the spirit beetles will increase the desire of animals to reproduce?"

When he came to the compartment where the spirit beetles were raised, Ye Zhou added a lot of insect feeding pills to the spirit beetles. When the spirit beetles saw the insect feeding pills, their small eyes seemed to emit green light, and they all pounced on the insect feeding pills...

Seven days passed in a blink of an eye. During these seven days, in addition to taking care of Mr. Shu and raising spirit insects, he concentrated on practicing the "Demon God Body Forging Art".

Because Ye Zhou's current cultivation has reached the twelfth level of Qi training, it is urgent to build a foundation. Ye Zhou plans to go to the imperial capital of Shengyun Kingdom after leaving the small valley to look for Gu Feng, while looking for the recipe of the earth or heaven foundation building pill and the remaining medicinal materials for refining the foundation building pill.

After finishing his training, Ye Zhou habitually went to the room where the spirit insects were raised to check.

A few days ago, after the two Ice Soul Red Eyed Spiders finished mating, the female spider swallowed the male spider. This is the habit of the Ice Soul Red Eyed Spider, and Ye Zhou did not stop it.

After that, the female spider laid five egg sacs. According to Ye Zhou's spiritual sense, there were about a hundred spider eggs in each egg sac.

After laying the egg sacs, the female spider began to stop eating and drinking, curled up in the corner and hugged the five egg sacs tightly, waiting for the little spiders in the egg sacs to hatch.

Today, Ye Zhou habitually checked the hatching of the little spiders in the egg sacs, and unexpectedly found that the little spiders in the egg sacs had completed their first molting at some point, and were ready to molt for the second time.

"It seems that it won't be long before this nest of little spiders will break out of the eggs."

A touch of satisfaction flashed across Ye Zhou's eyes.

After observing the group of spiders wrapped in the egg sac, Ye Zhou unexpectedly discovered that a small part of the spiders that had shed their skin seemed to look a little different from the other spiders.

The other spiders were translucent white jade-like with red eyes.

But this small part of spiders had evenly distributed faint black lines on their translucent white jade-like bodies. In addition, their mouthparts were also lightly dark gold.

Ye Zhou was surprised and said, "Could it be that the changes in these spiders were caused by the male and female spiders swallowing the bad eggs of the spirit beetle?"

Ye Zhou was very interested in these spiders that had changed, so he set up a small formation on the compartment where the ice soul red-eyed spiders were raised. Once the spiders in the egg sac broke out of the eggs, the formation would notify Ye Zhou in time.

Leaving the ice soul red-eyed spider behind, Ye Zhou came to the compartment where nine jade ice silkworms were hatched.

After several days of incubation, nine jade ice silkworms have successfully hatched from their eggs, but three of them ran out of energy and failed to hatch successfully. Now there are only six jade ice silkworms left in the compartment.

Ye Zhou picked up the three dead jade ice silkworms and threw them into a compartment to the side to feed the other spirit insects.

Ye Zhou used his spiritual sense to carefully scan the six jade ice silkworms, but did not find anything special. He murmured, "I don't know how the jade ice silkworm caused the centipede to mutate. Maybe after feeding it to adulthood, and then feeding it to other spiritual insects, we can find out the reason."

Ye Zhou threw some low-year spiritual plants into the compartment. The six hungry jade ice silkworms smelled the faint spiritual energy emanating from the spiritual plants, quickly crawled towards the spiritual plants, and began to devour the spiritual plants in big mouthfuls. There was a "rustling" swallowing sound in the compartment.

At this time, Shu Lao called from outside the bamboo house. Ye Zhou hurriedly responded and walked out of the bamboo house.

During the time he lived here, Shu Lao would call Ye Zhou to the lake every two days.

The two sat facing each other on the cool stone slabs by the lake, enjoying the breeze, listening to the whirring sound of the wind blowing down from the surrounding mountains and cliffs, blowing into this low valley, and then passing through the bamboo forest, blowing the bamboo leaves to make a quiet rustling sound. At this time, the two would close their eyes and enjoy the tranquility in the valley together.

However, most of the time when sitting by the lake, Shu Lao would tell Ye Zhou some of the experience and knowledge he had summarized from his life-long alchemy, as well as some knowledge about spiritual plants, monsters, etc. that were not recorded in the jade slips.

These things made Ye Zhou fascinated and also had a new understanding of this continent.

Today, Shu Lao and Ye Zhou sat down by the lake again. After Shu Lao finished talking about these knowledge, Ye Zhou asked Shu Lao a question that had puzzled him for a long time.

"Shu Lao, you are not a member of the Blood Spirit Sect. Why do you stay with the Blood Spirit Sect in this remote and spiritual Dawu Dynasty? With your alchemy skills, no matter where you go, there will be sects and families willing to spend a lot of money to recruit you."
