Chapter 64: Top-Quality Spiritual Insect

So when the clones were working hard in the medicine garden, Long Xuan started to work on the spiritual art.

The clones were sweating in the fields, he was working on the spiritual art, the spirit bees were busy in the medicine garden, he was working on the spiritual art, regardless of the wind and rain.

In this way, half a year passed in a flash.

Long Xuan slammed a book with three big characters "Five Elements Palm" on the cover, and saw a line of small characters on the lower right corner of the cover:

——Written by Long Xuan

This book called "Five Elements Palm" is the spiritual art he created after half a year of hard work.

Long Xuan was excited and satisfied, full of a sense of accomplishment, with a faint smile on his lips.

Such an awesome spiritual art was born in his hands, he was proud and complacent, and at this time he really felt high-spirited, he was going to swell.

What kind of spiritual art could make him so proud?

The Five Elements Palm is a palm technique he created based on the principle of the five elements' mutual generation and circulation. It is divided into five styles.

Style 1: Flame Palm

The spiritual power circulation route is earth→metal→water→wood→fire.

Style 2: Life-destroying Palm

The spiritual power circulation route is fire→earth→metal→water→wood.

Style 3: Shocking Wave Palm

The spiritual power circulation route is wood→fire→earth→metal→water.

Style 4: Vajra Palm

The spiritual power circulation route is water→wood→fire→earth→metal.

Style 5: Tathagata Palm

The spiritual power circulation route is metal→water→wood→fire→earth.

This first style, Flame Palm, is the kind of palm technique that can produce flames in his plan.

After starting with earth and progressing layer by layer, this Flame Palm is simply terrifying.

If other people's fire attribute spiritual arts produce flames, then his Flame Palm produces a sea of ​​fire, a sea of ​​fire with great power and a wide attack range.

Use the sea of ​​fire to attack in a large area, leaving the enemy with no escape.

It can be said that his ordinary attack is the ultimate move of others.

It is unreasonable.

It is also a flame-type spiritual art, but his flaming palm is enough to beat most of the flame-type spiritual arts in the world.

Since the flaming palm can be created with fire as the end of the spiritual power cycle, then by the same token, with the other attributes as the end, the other four attributes of spiritual arts can naturally be created.

This requires him to think of four more ideas to make up the remaining four styles of "Five Elements Palm".

This time it is not a brainstorming, since it is a matching spiritual art, the attack method that comes up with it is consistent with the characteristics of the mutant spiritual power.

Different from ordinary spiritual power, mutant spiritual power naturally has its own special features. Each mutant spiritual power is unique and has its own characteristics.

The characteristics of the mutant spiritual power in "Ten Absolute Classics" can be summarized in one word.

Fire burns, wood grows, water is dense, gold is strong, and earth is heavy.

Therefore, the design of the remaining four moves can be based on the four words "life", "density", "firmness" and "heavyness" to ensure 100% fit.

For example, the characteristic of wood is life, and life is the power of growth. The first thing Long Xuan thought of was the ripening technique in the immortal novels, a spiritual technique that can ripen spiritual medicines. Unexpectedly, he really succeeded in his research.

The Life-Destroying Palm has the effect of ripening spiritual medicines, but it will have the opposite effect when it hits people, destroying people's vitality and causing irreversible damage.

So this move was named the Life-Destroying Palm by Long Xuan, not the Life-Promoting Palm.

Moreover, although the ability of the Life-Destroying Palm to ripen spiritual medicines is against the sky, it will be limited by the realm.

The higher the realm, the more spiritual power, and the more years of ripening.

If the realm is too low and the spiritual power is too little, then the years of ripening will naturally be few.

At this time, he was only in the gathering spirit stage, and the mutated spirit power was only in the initial stage of the fusion of the two attributes. The effect of ripening was naturally minimal. At most, one palm could last for ten days. It was really useless and absolutely useless in a short period of time. It was far less practical than the other side of the life-destroying palm.

As for the last three moves of the "Five Elements Palm", the Shocking Wave Palm, the Vajra Palm, and the Tathagata Palm, what kind of brain hole are these three palms?

Since he even thought of the names, he naturally had an idea in his mind and had already made a draft.

If the Flame Palm is a group attack, then the Tathagata Palm is a single attack, the Shocking Wave Palm is a long-range attack, and the Vajra Palm is a close attack.

The abilities of the five moves of the "Five Elements Palm" are very comprehensive.

However, time is limited, and he is a little tired, so the last three moves can only be suspended for a while...

Long Xuan took out a communication talisman from the storage bag. This was the communication talisman given to him by Li Laodao. The general meaning on it was that he was going to hunt spirit beasts in the Ten Thousand Mountains and wanted to invite him to join the team.

If it was in the past, he would have refused without even thinking about it. Going to the wild was too dangerous. He would not go anywhere. He would stay in his comfortable nest.

But this time, I am afraid it won’t work. There have been signs of spirit beasts gathering in the Shiwan Mountains recently, indicating that there is a possibility of a beast tide.

So the nearby strong men united and issued a statement requiring all independent cultivators to go to the Shiwan Mountains to clear out the spirit beasts, so as to avoid the impact on the village after the beast tide.

This is a mandatory order. Everyone is responsible for the beast tide, and no one can stay out of it.

He couldn't not go, so he had to interrupt his research on spiritual arts and prepare to go to the Shiwan Mountains.

Just then, Li Laodao invited him to join a team, so he agreed.

Speaking of which, he also had a great interest in hunting spiritual beasts. In the previous life, animals would have parasites in their bodies, so it was reasonable that spiritual beasts in this world would also have insects, right?

The spiritual beasts in this world would also have insects, even top-quality spiritual insects, which was one of the sources of top-quality spiritual insects.

In this world, killing spiritual beasts was equivalent to exploding equipment, and spiritual insects of various qualities would be exploding, attracting countless casual cultivators, and gradually forming the profession of hunters, who made a living by hunting spiritual beasts.

Just like playing games and killing monsters to exploding equipment in the previous life, the exploding spiritual insects were all random, and whether you could get top-quality spiritual insects was entirely up to luck.

Some people were unlucky and would always have low-quality spiritual insects, while some people were lucky and could get top-quality spiritual insects after killing the first spiritual beast.

As for which spirit beast has good bugs in its body, you can't tell at all. You can only hunt high-grade spirit beasts to increase the explosion rate.

Because spirit beasts and humans are in another growth system, the various abilities of spirit beasts are not acquired through acquired learning, but through blood inheritance.

The ancestors of spirit beasts copied all their abilities into their blood and passed them on to generation after generation, so that spirit beasts don't have to spend time learning and can naturally master various powerful powers.

Of course, the next generation of spirit beasts can't master all the abilities of the ancestral beasts, otherwise wouldn't there be ancestral beasts everywhere?

For example, a powerful ancestral beast has 10,000 abilities, so which ability his descendants will inherit is completely random. If they are unlucky, they will awaken garbage abilities and be at the bottom of the food chain. If they are lucky, they will awaken against the sky and become the beast king.

And as the blood of the ancestral beasts from generation to generation becomes thinner, the number of abilities awakened by spirit beasts will become fewer and fewer, until now most spirit beasts have only one or several abilities.

Those abilities that have not awakened are called hidden abilities by humans. In fact, they have been hidden in the blood of spirit beasts and have not disappeared.

If a certain spirit beast is gifted and has a reversion phenomenon, then those hidden abilities may still awaken.

But the strange thing is that the parasites born in the spirit beast may carry the hidden abilities of the spirit beast.

But the spirit beast is not a Gu cultivator, so it cannot borrow this power at all.

So it is impossible to judge what kind of spirit insects a spirit beast has in its body through the spirit beast's ability.

Maybe a garbage spirit beast that can only spit bubbles has spirit insects in its body that can cause floods. It's like opening a blind box, there is no rule, and there is no way to judge.

Long Xuan is a complete exception. He can see the progress of the spirit insects in the spirit beast. He can see which spirit beast has the best spirit insects at a glance. He doesn't need to open a blind box like others and gamble on luck. He enters the spirit beast world just like opening a navigation.

So although this large-scale hunting of spirit beasts is dangerous for him, isn't it an opportunity?

Since the clone didn't have the golden finger to see the progress, he didn't plan to let the clone go on his behalf. He wanted to find the best spiritual insects like using navigation. Only he could find the best spiritual insects.

For people like him, the Shiwan Mountains were full of treasures. It was not just possible for him to find the best spiritual insects here, but it was certain. The only concern was whether he had enough strength.

Therefore, Long Xuan didn't show much rejection of this mandatory task. On the contrary, he was looking forward to it, as if there was a large group of best spiritual insects waving at him in front of him...

In fact, there is another type of parasites of spiritual beasts. In addition to being born naturally, the spiritual insects in the body of spiritual beasts may also come from the outside world.

When a spiritual beast drinks water or passes by a bush, it is very likely that a spiritual insect born in nature will jump onto its body, and then hide in its hair and parasitize it.

It must be fleas, lice, ticks... This type of spiritual insects.

There are also many insects that are unique to this world, which even Long Xuan, an entomologist, has never seen.

However, parasites that live on the surface of spirit beasts are easily discovered by sharp-eyed Gu cultivators. Once he teams up with other Gu cultivators, he cannot easily target such spirit insects.

His target is still the spirit insects that are born naturally in the body of spirit beasts. His teammates cannot see them, so he has a lot of room for maneuver.

Long Xuan has a great interest in this trip. After replying to the communication talisman, he immediately packed up and went to the place agreed by Li Laodao.

There is a reason for this. Before leaving, he also asked for leave from Long Lao and stopped working in the medicine garden for a while.

The medicine garden will not die if it is not taken care of for a month. Long Lao agreed without thinking. He also knew that the beast tide might happen, so he did not ask more questions and continued to study the recipe of Baihua Pill there. Long Xuan was very anxious.

It has been so long, and he is almost tired of eating Baihua Pill, but Long Lao has not yet figured it out.

It is worth mentioning that the Gu cultivators of the big clan will not go out in full force for this beast tide cleanup mission. A considerable number of people will stay behind.

After all, the big families are not like independent cultivators. They have large families and great wealth, so they must leave a certain amount of force to guard the family. And Old Long is one of the people who does not need to participate in this mission.

Don't say it's unfair. This world has never been fair. Everything is like this. Fairness is always in the hands of the strong. The group of scattered cultivators is weak and can only be manipulated by others.

The place where Li Laodao agreed to meet was Qian's Inn in the market. Long Xuan followed the instructions of the communication talisman and walked into one of the private rooms of the inn.

As soon as he entered the private room, he found that there were already quite a few people in the room. Obviously, Li Laodao invited more than just him. These people were his teammates for the next trip.

There were three men and two women in the room. Li Laodao was very familiar with him. There was also a little medicine boy whose name he didn't know. He often sold him junk and was considered a half-acquaintance.

The other one was an old man he knew. Long Xuan thought for a long time before he remembered that this was the old man who sold him a beehive many years ago. It was just that his eyesight was not good, and he sold him the top-grade spirit bees as medium-grade spirit bees.

I didn't expect to see him again today after so many years, and coincidentally became his teammates. It's really unpredictable.

As for the other two women, Long Xuan's clone often visited the market to participate in various trade fairs, so he also knew these two women.

One is an old woman named Han Mei, and the other is a middle-aged woman with ordinary looks named Zhang Ling.

All five of them are at the peak of the Gathering Spirit Stage, and are only one step away from the Marrow Cleansing Stage. They are considered to be the most powerful group of independent cultivators in the Gathering Spirit Stage in the market.

Only Long Xuan is at the late Gathering Spirit Stage, which is considered to be a drag on the team.

"Master Li, why did you find a late Gathering Spirit Stage cultivator? Isn't this deliberately dragging us down? I don't want to bring a burden."

The old man with poor eyesight is indeed poor eyesight. He didn't recognize Long Xuan until now. Seeing that the visitor's realm was low, he showed a little dissatisfaction.

Taoist Li came over to smooth things over and said, "Old Ma, you haven't been in the market for so many years, so you don't know that this young friend is called Long Xuan. Although his realm is a little low, his combat power is not low at all."

"It's inconvenient to reveal the details, but he definitely has the strength of the peak of the Gathering Spirit, otherwise why would I invite him here? What's the benefit of bringing a burden?"

"You can rest assured. Even if he is not strong, he has Xiaoqiang Gu by his side. He won't die easily, so how can he hold us back?"

Hearing that the visitor was in the late stage of Gathering Spirit but had the strength of the peak of Gathering Spirit, Old Ma showed a look of surprise and doubt. He couldn't help but look at this face carefully again. After a careful look, he suddenly felt that this face was familiar, and he wanted to have seen it somewhere.

After a long time, he finally came to his senses. Wasn't this person the young man who bought his beehive many years ago?

He suddenly widened his eyes. He found out that he had made a mistake shortly after he returned.

After all, no matter how the top-grade honey changes, it can never become medium-grade honey. Since the top-grade honey is still in his hands, it will be exposed sooner or later.

When he thought that what he sold was actually the honeycomb of the top-grade spirit bees, he was so angry that he slapped his legs and regretted it.

Now when he saw the real owner, his eyes widened and he shouted out of control: "It turned out to be you, kid! You, a treacherous kid, have deceived me badly, return the top-grade spirit beehive to me?"

Hearing this, Long Xuan showed a puzzled expression and asked in confusion: "Who are you? I don't know you, what spirit beehive, I don't know what you are talking about..."

"Hahaha..." At this time, Taoist Li patted his shoulder and laughed: "Old friend, the market has been a rule for many years. You can't ask for the account after making a mistake. You have been out for so many years and even forgot the rules?"

Speaking, Taoist Li ignored him and walked to Long Xuan and said, "Don't worry about him. The market has its own rules. You are so lucky that you can pick up a high-quality spiritual beehive at a low price."

"The market price of high-quality honey is not low. If your medicine garden is full of flowers, selling honey will be a big way to make money." Taoist Li showed envy. At this time, he was thinking whether he should trade some high-quality honey with him after returning. High-quality honey is a good thing. I just don't know what kind of high-quality spiritual bee can make Ma Lao so out of control. He rolled his eyes.

Long Xuan glanced at Ma Lao who was looking at him fiercely, chose to ignore him, and started chatting with Taoist Li.

"Let's not talk too much. I have never hunted in Shiwan Mountain and have no idea about the situation there. How dangerous is this hunt?" Long Xuan showed a serious look.

"Haha, don't worry about that. I guarantee that this trip to the Ten Thousand Mountains will be 100% safe and there will be no accidents. You can rest assured!" Li Laodao immediately patted his chest and promised with a very confident tone.

"100% safe?" Long Xuan's voice stretched out and his eyebrows raised. He always felt that this sentence was familiar. Li Laodao also said 100% safe when he invited him to the ancient tomb last time, right? But what was the result?

Being driven away by the big clan as cannon fodder, a large number of casual cultivators who went there died. Fortunately, he didn't go with them.

Is what Li Laodao said really reliable?

"Are you sure it's reliable? You told me the same thing last time." Long Xuan couldn't help asking, revealing a doubtful look.

Taoist Li immediately understood which last time Long Xuan was referring to, so his old face turned red, and he said with a slightly embarrassed look: "Last time was an accident, don't worry, this time it will definitely be reliable, because I have hired a big boss to lead the flight..."
