Pick up the treasure bag and start cultivating immortals from the shrinking lamp.

Chapter 33: Ten Thousand Insects Devouring the Spiritual Banner (Please read it again on Tuesday!)
Perhaps it is because demonic cultivators like Han Yin have not been seen for a long time, or perhaps he is just old, so he likes to talk to himself.

Only then did Xia Chen realize that Han Yin was an elder of the Tianyin Sect, who was proficient in the art of refining insects.

More than ten years ago, he learned from an ancient book that the Red Gold Locust contained a faint trace of Gold-Eating Spirit Locust bloodline.

The gold-eating locust is an ancient alien insect, very powerful, and feeds on gold essence. When it grows up, it can even devour the magic weapons of monks!
So in order to cultivate a gold-eating locust, Han Yin secretly cultivated a large swarm of locusts.

It also swept through tens of thousands of acres of spiritual fields in the Tianyan Sect, using millions of kilograms of spiritual grains to give birth to so many high-level red-gold locusts.

Finally, he used the secret technique of raising Gu recorded in ancient books, and finally cultivated the second-level gold-eating locust!

Han Yin suddenly seemed to think of something, he laughed sinisterly, raised his right hand, and a long banner flew over from not far away from the cave. The banner was made of ephedra, two feet wide, and had countless poisonous insects embroidered on it with blood-colored silk.

With just a slight wave, the gold-eating spirit locust and more than a dozen red-gold locusts flew into the banner.

Afterwards, Han Yin walked out of the cave and disappeared.

"This is the Ten Thousand Insects Devouring Spirit Banner. It has a built-in space that can hold a lot of insect poisons!"

When Xia Chen saw the long banner, he felt a little envious.

If he had this Ten Thousand Insects Devouring Spirit Banner, he could raise the swarm of golden tiger-headed bees that he had subdued before in it.

When facing an enemy, just release the swarm of bees in a swarm.

If the opponent does not have any powerful defensive magic weapon, he will not be able to withstand the bee stings in the sky.

This Soul-Eroding Banner is also recorded in the "Strange Insects Book", but there is no specific method of refining it.

After all, the fat Taoist priest Sun Hui was only an outer disciple of the Tianyin Sect, and the skills he could access were limited.

Moreover, Sun Hui's "Strange Insects Classic" is only the first volume and is not complete.

Next, the observation insect box was hazy and filled with gray-black clouds.

This is probably because the red-gold locusts were set to be in the Ten Thousand Insects Devouring Spirit Banner.

Xia Chen had nothing to do, so he started practicing "Yi Mu Chang Chun Gong".

I have to say, it’s expensive for a reason.

The speed at which he drew spiritual energy into his body was much faster than before.

The time it takes to complete a large and small cycle has also been greatly reduced year-on-year.

Xia Chen took out a pill the size of a longan, which was a sky-blue color and filled with medicinal aroma. It was a first-grade, top-quality pill, the Biyun Pill.

Although E-level candy and snack grass can produce first-level top-quality elixirs, it is already a stretch.

The breeding cycle of Biyundan is very long, and it often takes one or two months to hatch offspring.

In the past six months, Xia Chen has only taken three Biyun Pills.

Of course, the effect is also significant. He is now not far from the fifth level of Qi Refining.

If we continue like this, we will definitely make a breakthrough before the end of the year.

After taking the pill, a cool feeling permeated the meridians of the whole body, and a slight warm feeling was derived.

Xia Chen started to practice the Yimu Changsheng Gong and slowly refined the medicinal power.

Biyundan is a wood-attributed elixir, and Yimu Changshenggong is also a wood-attributed skill. The two complement each other.

After half an hour, most of the medicinal power had been refined, but unexpectedly, new situations appeared in the observation insect box not far away.

"Youyangzi, aren't you usually quite arrogant? You rely on the Blood Cloud Pearl to protect you and don't take us elders seriously. Today, I, Han Yin, will kill you so that I can compete for the position of Tianyin Right Envoy!"

An arrogant voice came from the insect box.

Xia Chen saw that more than a dozen locusts were gnawing on a blood-colored light shield, making "crunching" and "crunching" sounds.

Especially the golden locust in the middle, its ferocious mouthparts quickly bit off a large piece.

Not long after, the blood-colored light shield made a "bang" sound, turned into countless glass-like fragments, and disappeared.

"You really cultivated a second-level gold-eating bug?!" You Yangzi screamed in fear: "No, you can't kill me! We are all elders of the Tianyin Sect. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the Sect Leader?"

Han Yin laughed loudly: "The old master is in seclusion practicing, how can he have time to care about these trivial matters!"

Then many locusts swarmed in.

Youyangzi let out a shrill wail, but slowly, the sound became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

Soon, only a skeleton was left on the ground.

Xia Chen discovered that the red-gold locust he had designed had grown in size again after eating the flesh and blood of the foundation-building cultivator, and had successfully broken through to the first-grade superior level.

Afterwards, the observation insect box fell into darkness again, as if it had crashed.

It was obviously taken into the Ten Thousand Insects Devouring Spirit Banner.
-
After the summer harvest, it’s time for autumn planting.

Although Madam Xu's thirty acres of spiritual fields are close to the quality of mid-grade spiritual fields, there is still some gap.

Large-scale planting of spiritual vegetables will further overdraw the fertility of the soil and affect next year's spring planting.

After all, for spiritual farmers, growing rice is the most important thing, and spiritual vegetables are just by-products.

Xia Chen planted five or six acres of amaranth and yellow melon as winter food.

As for the thirty acres, if they were all planted with vegetables, fruits and melons, they could be sold for some spirit stones.

Although Xia Chen was short of money, he didn't care about these trivial things. He would rather practice instead if he had more time. Breaking through to the fifth level of Qi Refining would be better than anything else.

There is a letter from Madam Xu.

The letter said that she sold 1,500 kilograms of Yuling rice and rented a small house on the more prosperous East Street as a shop.

East Street can be said to be the center of the entire Qixia Town, with better public security. She also took Xiao Yuner back from her good friend.

He then wrote about several interesting stories, one of which was that Butcher Dong was arrested and thrown into prison by the masters of the Demon Suppression Bureau because he was suspected of being possessed by an evil spirit.

It is said that on the day he was arrested, Butcher Dong was wearing heavy makeup, a red flower in his hair, and crying bitterly.

He sat down on the ground like a shrew, rolling around and throwing a tantrum, refusing to admit that he was possessed by a ghost.

He also said that the people from the Demon Suppression Division would only bully him, a "delicate" and weak woman.

This made everyone present feel extremely uncomfortable and gave them goose bumps.

Finally, Mrs. Xu wrote at the end that she wanted him to help take care of the jujube tree in the yard when he had time, and to repel insects and apply more fertilizer.

"What a clever woman!"

Looking at the contents of the letter, Xia Chen smiled.

Butcher Dong's personality changed drastically. Others said he was possessed by a ghost, but Madam Xu definitely guessed that it was related to her.

But she didn't say it explicitly, because she was afraid of getting herself into trouble.

Seeing the end of the letter, Xia Chen was a little puzzled and asked, "Take care of the jujube trees? Could it be that Madam Xu is reminding me to send some over when the jujubes are ripe?"

Now the jujube tree in the yard is full of green fruits.

It is expected to mature in another month or two.

If I sell it, I can probably get a lot of spirit stones.

"No, Madam Xu is not such a fussy person!"

Xia Chen frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.
