"Brother Han, what do you want to ask?" The face on Lingxi Peacock glanced at the puppet and Lin Yinping who fell into Gui Ling's hands, hesitated for a moment, and could only say with a wry smile.
"Hearing fellow daoists say, the gold-eating worm finally turned into a mature body, and it didn't evolve by itself. This is a bit weird. As far as I know, this kind of strange worm was famous in ancient times, and it was not There is no master who directly embodies the world of cultivating immortals with maturity. Because of the characteristics of invulnerability and almost indestructibility, he has changed his face for a long time at that time. The gold-eating insects of your Tianlan Temple are probably also obtained from the ancient times. Only the eggs left behind will have a chance to drive this spirit insect!" Han Li shook his head, then returned to Gui Ling's side, looked at the phantom face, and said calmly. But the humanoid puppet's whole body flashed with silver light, its figure was blurred, and it disappeared in place.
"If you follow the normal method and wait for tens of thousands of years, the gold-eating worms will naturally have a way to slowly evolve into a mature body. But we monks only have a long lifespan. Even if it is passed down from generation to generation, there are not many families or sects that can Persisting in such a time. Especially when the gold-eating worm is about to evolve to the last stage, the long evolution time makes people lose the courage to cultivate it. And fellow Taoists are also driving this worm, so you should be very clear about mature and immature The gap between them is huge. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is a world of difference." The young man surnamed Xu said in a deep voice.
"Your words are true. My gold-eating worm has evolved to the current level, and has hardly grown in the past few years. You must have some secrets to breed mature gold-eating worms in Tianlan Grassland. I don't know how long your method can shorten the evolution time of the mature body!" Han Li let out a breath and asked lightly.
"It can be shortened to one-third. And if fellow daoists spare some rare materials and only focus on cultivating a few of them, the time can be further shortened." The young man surnamed Xu replied without hesitation.
"One-third, this is indeed a worthwhile move. But how do you plan to tell me the secret, and you are not afraid that I will get this secret, so you can't deal with it?" Han Li suddenly laughed.
"Fellow Daoist, I'm joking. Brother Han's gold-eating insect swarm, Mr. Xu, is not unheard of. Although the insect swarm has evolved to the last stage, it obviously hasn't started the evolution of mature bodies. Even if we get our training secrets, there is no Thousands of years of painstaking cultivation can't cultivate successful ones. And what will happen thousands of years later, you and I can't worry about it." The young man surnamed Xu didn't hide what he thought, and said directly.
"You can say it frankly. It is true that thousands of years later, whether these gold-eating insects can still exist in the hands of Han's descendants is a matter of two opinions. Even the noble palace who knows about this matter may have found it long ago. Countermeasures." The corners of Han Li's mouth curled up, revealing a half-smile expression.
"If fellow daoist thinks this way, then there is nothing wrong. Why, fellow daoist doesn't want this secret technique anymore. If there are other conditions, I also..."
"Yes, why not. Even if you can't cultivate a mature body in your next lifetime, there is always something to learn from. Han has always been very interested in cultivating spirit insects." Han Li added his lips and said with his arms folded.
"Okay, fellow daoist, wait a moment, I will copy this secret in the jade slip. Fellow daoist should also cultivate this insect for many years, and you should be able to tell the truth at a glance." The illusioned face of the young man surnamed Xu appeared. He said with a hint of surprise, but he didn't mean to regret it at all.
Immediately, a white light flashed, and the face sank into the body of Lingxi Peacock.
Han Li smiled slightly, but took this opportunity to turn his eyes and landed on the palace in the distance.
After the three monsters entered it, it was still silent, as if it was still empty.
Seeing this strange situation, Han Li frowned, and suddenly asked Gui Ling something via voice transmission.
The ugly woman was startled when she heard the words, but immediately echoed something.
After Han Li nodded, his face darkened.
"Okay, Brother Han, go on." The spirit bird on the opposite side suddenly opened its mouth, and a white glow flew out.
Han Li's eyes lit up, and with a flick of his sleeves, a cloud of green glow shot out, rolling the object into his hand.
When the white light converged, it was a white jade slip the size of a palm.
Han Li was not polite either, and immediately picked up the object with one hand and gently pasted it on his forehead, and his spiritual consciousness was immersed in it.
At the beginning, his face was abnormally calm, but gradually revealed an expression of surprise, and then a little stunned.
He seemed to be able to comprehend the magic formula in the jade slips immediately.
After a full cup of tea, Han Li finally pulled out his spiritual consciousness from the jade slips. After taking a breath, he raised his head and looked at the opposite side, and said suddenly: "Friend Xu, this method of cultivating gold-eating insects, I don’t know which expert of your Tuwu tribe founded it? I really admire it a little bit. I can think of using the method of infusion and the power of heaven and earth to forcibly infuse the spiritual energy of the five elements into the body of the spirit insect to ripen the spirit insect. This kind of The method is not something ordinary people can come up with. Even if they can come up with it, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to try again and again, and I don't know how many times they fail!"
"Ever since the temple obtained the eggs of the gold-eating insects, the elders in the temple who are proficient in repelling insects have been studying the method of ripening the spirit insects. It took thousands of years of hard work to finally find out this feasible method. It's a pity What's more, it still can't solve the problem of the scarcity of insect eggs, and the auxiliary materials needed for it are also extremely rare, and it is impossible to ripen this insect on a large scale." The young man replied helplessly.
Han Li nodded, not surprised. If it weren't for his mysterious vial and the magical effect of discovering the neon grass, I am afraid that he would not be able to spawn and evolve so many gold-eating insects time and time again.
"Okay, I rescued the two of you, and you gave me the magic formula. The previous deal is over, brother Xu is planning to dissolve the army by himself, and send your soul to reincarnate. Let me do it myself, I will turn you into ashes, including the spirit bird and the Nascent Soul." Han Li's expression suddenly sank, and he stared at the peacock with the spirit on the opposite side, with a fierce look on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a thunder sound behind him, and the silver-white wings flashed. Clenched fists with both hands at the same time, there was a loud rumbling sound, a layer of golden thundercloth emerged from the whole body, and the golden arc flashed wildly, the momentum was extremely astonishing.
And almost at the same time, behind the spirit peacock, a silver light flashed slightly, and a humanoid puppet emerged silently, with a red light flashing in its hand, and a small bow with a green glow, just aimed at the spirit bird.
Consonant Peacock was startled in horror, spread its wings, and instantly a layer of five-color aura protected it, and opened its mouth again, a ball of yellow light shot out from it, and it was the young Nascent Soul surnamed Xu who flew out, and in a blink of an eye It landed on the head of the spirit bird for a while, and then looked at Han Li and let out a few wry smiles.
"Fellow Daoist, stop. You and our Tianlan are not incompatible. We can make peace with each other. Even if Fellow Daoist is really not afraid of the other three immortal masters chasing and killing you, don't you care about your own sect? With descendants?"
"Do you want to force me to kill all your great immortal masters in my lifetime?" Upon hearing this, Han Li's expression changed, but he said immediately.
"Brother Han, why do you do this? The saint and I chased and killed fellow daoists before, that was because our world of cultivating immortals respects the strong. Fellow daoist, as a monk in the mid-stage Nascent Soul, actually killed and wounded like this on our grassland What a high-level immortal master, our temple naturally had to take down fellow daoist. Later, fellow daoist took away the holy beast clone, which violated the taboo of our temple. We had to chase after Dajin. But now it’s different .Fellow Daoist can drive two late-stage cultivators, and his abilities are no less than that of a great cultivator. He already has the qualifications to sit on an equal footing with our Tianlan Temple. It's extremely dangerous, and it's easier for us to work together to protect ourselves." Seeing that Han Li didn't immediately interrupt his speech, the young man surnamed Xu felt a little relieved. He hastily said all the words he had thought about a long time ago.
"Did you finish?" Han Li quietly listened to what the young man surnamed Xu said, and asked without the slightest expression.
"Why, Fellow Daoist thinks what Xu said is not true?" Seeing Han Li's expression, the young man surnamed Xu felt his heart skip a beat and asked cautiously.
"Give it up, it's not impossible. But what method did you use to convince me that you are sincerely reconciling with me? Just relying on a few words, or some verbal vows?" Han Li sneered, with a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"Of course it's impossible! Our saintesses are here, and we can use secret techniques to summon the true spirit of the Tianlan holy beast and plant the seal of the holy beast for fellow daoists. Invite fellow daoists to be the elders of our Tianlan temple. In this way For one thing, as long as fellow Taoists return the holy beast avatar to us so that we can explain to other people after we go back, the temple will not be able to attack our own people again." The young man surnamed Xu said hastily.
"The mark of the holy beast, I heard something when I passed by the grassland. I heard that the people who planted this mark are the core people of the temple, and they cannot kill each other, otherwise the mark will occur afterwards , people are infected with an extremely weird curse, and the spiritual sense has been stinging so much for many years, it is almost worse than death." Han Li was a little surprised when he heard the words, and said after a moment of pondering.
"Fellow Daoist Han knows this, as long as we know about it. Brother Han and I didn't really get to the point of life and death. The main reason is that the holy beast clone was captured. As for the immortal masters who were killed or injured, compared to Brother Han's current strength It's not worth mentioning." Yuan Ying, a young man surnamed Xu, continued to persuade Han Li when he saw that Han Li was a little tempted.
Han Li frowned tightly, his expression uncertain.
At this time, Yuan Ying, a young man surnamed Xu, shut up knowingly, and just quietly waited for Han Li's decision. However, there was a look of uneasiness between his brows.
He knew very well that if Han Li really wanted to kill them, with the cooperation of the few people in front of him, a mere Nascent Soul would have no chance of escape.
Therefore, even though he is a late Nascent Soul cultivator, at this moment his heart is up and down, like walking on thin ice.
