C16 Thunder Beast's Hand

Silence reigned in the pitch-black mine. Suddenly, a rustling sound could be heard. His voice was very soft at first, but it soon reached his ears. Anyone who heard it would definitely feel a chill run down their spine. There were tens of thousands of thumb-sized ants. These ants were not only bigger than ordinary ants, but they also had countless spikes on their bodies, appearing exceptionally ferocious.

"These ants are actually all at the first level of Qi Refining, what a pity …" The Xiao Mo, who was hiding not far away, felt extremely uncomfortable seeing so many ants around. Even the cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining were not willing to face these little things that were only at the first level of Qi Refining. There were too many of them. Xiao Mo thought that 10,000 was the limit of these ants, but looking at the endless ant colony, he was a little worried about whether he could snatch the Thunder Beast Primordial Spirit from these ants. But it was too late now, the Xiao Mo could only place his hopes on his own hands.

Ling Zhan laughed: "Brat, if you want to control these things, it's easy. You just need to control the Queen." Xiao Mo laughed bitterly, "Control the queen? The queen ant must be surrounded by heavy soldiers. If I go and control her, isn't that equivalent to seeking death? " Ling Zhan was speechless. It was true, there were countless ants protecting the queen, and they could control such a large colony of ants. One could imagine the queen's cultivation level.

At this time, Long Jie flattered, "Master, Senior, this humble one just so happens to have a [Insect Tactics]. Perhaps it might be able to help master." "Oh, take it and take a look." The Xiao Mo was excited. Other than ores, what else was most important in this cave? Of course it was the insects. Even if he couldn't control the queen, he could still control the other poisonous bugs. The Ling Zhan was also very interested, before his body was destroyed, he killed many cultivators that were good at controlling insects, and obtained many techniques and jade slips. It was a pity that he did not care at the time, so he could only kill the insects.

Long Jie imprinted the contents of the Bug Control Policy into a blank jade slip. Xiao Mo was overjoyed after reading it and praised Long Jie. To be more accurate, this Bug Control Policy was not a simple spell, but it was a complete compendium of information on insects. The Insect Tactics is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the habits and main characteristics of each kind of insect, the second part introduces the control methods of each kind of insect, and the third part introduces some cultivation experiences. These things were quite useful to the Xiao Mo. After thinking about it carefully, he grabbed a lone ant and prepared to give it a try.

That ant had the strength of a Qi Refining Stage Level 1, but how could it be a match for the Xiao Mo? After taking care of the ant, Xiao Mo followed the method written on the book and placed a few special seals on it, then dripped a drop of blood on its head. With a flash of red light, Xiao Mo felt that the ant was extremely mysterious. With a jolt, he 'saw' a blurry silhouette facing him. This was a very simple way of finding the way, and many cultivators of the Insect Dao knew it. The farther away from the owner, the more blurry the image would be. Even if Xiao Mo were to hold the ant in his hand, he could only see a blurry image, which also showed the weak point of using this method to find the way.

Xiao Mo saw that the ants had entered the place where the sealing array was located and quietly followed inside. The moment the ants touched the light shield, they actually bit at the light screen like crazy, but they quickly exploded one by one. For a time, the sounds of firecrackers rang incessantly. This... "What's going on?" After about twenty thousand ants had exploded, one of the larger ants shook his head in the midst of the rest, and the colony suddenly retreated.

After carefully analyzing the situation, Ling Zhan said, "I believe that there is some kind of power that has disturbed these ants and caused them to become crazy. Those larger ants were less affected, which is why they were able to issue the order to retreat. "Moreover …" Pausing, Ling Zhan continued: "Did you discover it? Those big ants seem to... Be smart, like... Just like a general in the mortal world, while an ant queen is an emperor. " Speaking to here, the Ling Zhan's voice also sounded a little strange.

Xiao Mo also thought about this point. With the existence of the spirit energy on these ants, they could be considered Demonic Insects. "The demonic insects have a low innate intelligence. Even if they had a bit of intelligence, it would still be impossible for them to become this smart." Then we … "What should we do?" Xiao Mo's voice was hoarse. He would rather fight with a beast that relied on his instincts than deal with a clever demonic insect.

"What should we do? After completely cleaning up the traces left behind by the ants, he would then rely on himself to grind them down. After suffering such a loss, the ants shouldn't be coming back. But just in case, we still have to do some protection. " Xiao Mo also sighed, "This is the only way."

Xiao Mo found some low-level demon beasts in the mines, and captured more than a dozen oxen before returning to continue breaking the formation. With the food and water, Xiao Mo would be able to support them for around half a year. After blocking the cave entrance, Xiao Mo was seated cross-legged 200 feet away from the array formation. He released a palm lightning which was blocked by the light barrier, followed by another attack. When the spirit energy had been exhausted, the Xiao Mo used spirit stones to recover and continued to cultivate.

Time quickly passed, and in the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. Only a small amount of the eight rice grain sized immortal crystals remained, and the array formation was about to break. Xiao Mo's Palm Lightning also hit ten percent, increasing its power by a lot. Xiao Mo's cultivation was still wandering around the second level of Qi Refinement during this half year, so he was mentally prepared for this. On that day, he was able to advance to the second level of Qi Refining because of luck. That snake marrow had the effect of raising one's talent and it also contained a lot of Spiritual Aura. Ling Zhan and Xiao Mo only found out about this after the fact, and when they thought about it now, they felt a lingering fear.

Following the continuous bombardment of the Xiao Mo's Palm Lightning, the little remaining immortal crystals turned to dust. The flashing runes on the spell formation had turned dim and lifeless. The Thunder Beast's primordial spirit did not change and was still locked in midair by the chain. Clearly, it was already extremely weak. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been unable to break through the shackles of ordinary people.

"Hehe, just nice. This lightning beast's primordial spirit is so weak, otherwise, it would have been really difficult to subdue it." The Ling Zhan laughed, then said: "Brat, use the method I taught you, and plant a restriction in its primordial spirit." Although he could not subdue the Thunder Beast's primordial spirit, he could still accept the fact that the Xiao Mo had subdued him.

When Xiao Mo heard this, he formed a few seals. He had used this set of seals on Long Jie before, so he was naturally extremely familiar with using it now. Very quickly, the Xiao Mo squeezed out a drop of his blood essence to form a mark, imprinting it onto the Thunder Beast's primordial spirit. During this process, the lightning beast's resistance was weak to the point of being disregarded. After countless years of sealing, the lightning beast had only barely been able to keep its primordial spirit from dissipating. If not for Xiao Mo breaking the formation, the lightning beast would not have long to live.

Xiao Mo took out an empty storage bag and placed the Thunder Beast Primordial Spirit inside. Although he had the Soul Nurturing Stone, which nourished his spirit body, firstly, Long Jie was inside, and secondly, the Xiao Mo was not willing to let the Thunder Beast's primordial spirit recover its strength in a short period of time. Although Long Jie was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, his power was severely damaged and had not fully recovered yet. Furthermore, Long Jie's forceful possession of his body had caused heavy damage to his spirit body. His current strength was only at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refinement. Xiao Mo could use restrictions to control it, but the Thunder Beast was different.
