Chapter 309 Silver-armored locusts leave
Li Yi took out these items, studied them briefly, and then walked out of the cave. He first arranged the formation flags in his hand, and placed a small yellow tripod in the center of the formation. The translucent white jade box disappeared into the void under the stimulation of the formation.
Li Yi cast a fireball spell and ignited the sandalwood in the small yellow tripod. An extremely strange breath spread in all directions. With the release of this breath, the eyes of the eight-winged cold snake in the distance suddenly turned blood red, and it was about to go crazy.
Seeing this scene, Li Yi's face changed slightly, and he cast a spell on the eight-winged cold snake and took it back into the spirit beast bag, but the purple beast on the other side also smelled this smell. The red light in its eyes flashed, and then disappeared without any change. An extremely strange expression appeared on the little face. He glanced at the small tripod in the distance, and then returned to normal.
However, at this moment, a series of "buzzing" sounds were heard in the distant sky. Hearing the sound, Li Yi's eyebrows flashed, and a Yin-Yang divine pupil looked into the distance. In the distant sky, hundreds of silver beetles flew over. These beetles had wings on their backs, only the size of a thumb, and flew towards this side at a very fast speed.
In a flash, they flew in front of Li Yi, and then pounced on the sandalwood in the small tripod, devouring the sandalwood madly.
"It's really a silver-armored locust." Li Yi said excitedly.
Seeing hundreds of silver beetles, when all the beetles flew into the formation, Li Yi's face was very solemn. He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and suddenly a light flashed above the formation, and a milky white light shield covered all the beetles.
Then, in the formation, a translucent jade box appeared, and all the spirit insects were collected. Li Yi waved his hand, and the translucent jade box flew into his hand. After a moment, he looked at the hundreds of beetles flying in the jade box, and his heart was filled with joy.
"It's a pity that there are too few of them, and they are still larvae. If they can be cultivated in large quantities, they will be powerful." Li Yi thought secretly in his heart.
Li Yi held the jade box in his hand, and the beetle in it was called Silver Armored Locust. This flying insect ranked third on the Wanling List. It can almost devour everything, and there is a silver armor on its back, which is extremely hard and flies very fast. If there are only one or two, it's nothing, but if there are a large number, it's terrifying. There was once an ancient sect that was devoured by a cultivator who drove tens of thousands of Silver Armored Locusts. No matter whether it was spiritual herbs, monsters, or cultivators, no one survived. Even some spiritual stones or ores would be devoured. There is a saying that after the locusts, a white land will be left.
Because of this incident, this person angered the entire Endless Sea. More than a dozen large sects, under the alliance of a top-level sect, killed this person and killed the cultivator. At that time, the silver-armored locusts were not yet mature.
The reason why those sects wanted to kill this person was that they were worried that his spiritual insects would reach full maturity and no one would be able to suppress him, so they united to kill him. Some people also wanted to obtain the silver-armored locusts. But that insect cultivator was very stubborn. When he saw that he was defeated, he let all the spiritual insects explode, leaving those people with nothing.
Although the silver-armored locusts are ranked high and very powerful, they are also very difficult to cultivate and very troublesome to capture. At that time, Yuling Sanren accidentally discovered these spiritual insects near the Ice and Fire Island. He captured them several times but failed to capture them. These spiritual insects were quite cunning. Later, he spent some time to find the things in Li Yi's hands, specifically to capture these silver-armored locusts.
In order to keep it secret and avoid suspicion, Yuling Sanren also killed the original owner of the Ice and Fire Island, and then asked his apprentices, the Black and White Evils, to fight for the Ice and Fire Island, and gave them precious treasures. Otherwise, if others knew that he had captured the Silver Armored Locust, he would be in a lot of trouble, especially if he had to hide it from the people of Mingxia Palace.
Just when Yuling Sanren thought he had done it perfectly, the Black and White Evils met Li Yi and were killed by Li Yi, which naturally angered Yuling Sanren, but the person was already dead, so Yuling Sanren changed his strategy and took the initiative to find Mingxia Palace, saying that he wanted to avenge his apprentice and kill Li Yi.
The people of Mingxia Palace naturally did not want to offend Yuling Sanren for a small island, so they agreed. Yuling Sanren, who had killed a cultivator in the late Jindan period, naturally would not take Li Yi, a cultivator in the late foundation period, to heart.
Before, he also thought that Li Yi would run away, after all, he had offended him. In order to avoid trouble, he gave Li Yi some time, but surprisingly, Li Yi did not escape, but waited for him here, which surprised Yuling Sanren. Finally, he decided to take action himself, and he had the killer weapon of the God Devouring Bug in his hand.
Although Yuling Sanren was very careful, he did not expect that Li Yi had too many hidden means, and he still fell into Li Yi's hands.
Li Yi sorted out the memories in his mind and put them aside, but he remembered all the cultivation experience and driving methods of those spirit insects and spirit beasts in his heart.
In the following days, Li Yi spent some means to make the wild silver-armored locusts recognize their master. Although there were only more than a hundred beetles, Li Yi still spent nearly a month.
"Whether it is the silver-armored locust or the god-eating insect, they are too weak to help much. If you want to go to the Fairy Island to find high-level elixirs, you still need to rely on puppets. Moreover, the divine consciousness has improved a lot, and the number of puppets that can be driven should increase a lot. If you can drive dozens or hundreds of Jindan-stage puppets, even if you encounter a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, you can probably fight." Li Yi thought secretly in his heart.
Then, Li Yi spent some time to build a spirit insect room and a spirit beast room, placed spirit insects, and refined some beast spirit pills, throwing them to the eight-winged cold and purple little beasts, so that they can practice.
After doing all this, Li Yi began to refine puppets. After spending countless materials, Li Yi accumulated a large number of puppets, including two or three hundred foundation-building puppets, most of which were level five or six puppets, and more than ten Jindan-stage puppets, mainly level seven puppets, and only one level eight puppet.
In order to refine these puppets, not counting the consumption of Jinxuanmu, Li Yi spent more than one million spirit stones for other materials. He went to the market several times to gather all the materials. As the level of the puppets increased, the success rate of the puppets decreased, and the more materials were wasted, which made Li Yi very distressed.
"So many puppets should be enough, it's time to leave." Li Yi's eyes were full of excitement, and he muttered to himself.
