“These spiritual insects really open my eyes… But I’m sorry, I don’t intend to raise other spiritual insects anymore.” Liu Ming smiled faintly and returned the white bone jade slip to Elder Gu.

Elder Gu was greatly disappointed and a little helpless when he heard the words.

Qing Ling Race was not a famous clan, and it could even be said that it couldn’t even be compared with ordinary medium-sized tribes. Apart from being good at raising these strange insects, there was really nothing else worth mentioning.

Although there were several spiritual insects in the clan that were not listed in this list, most of those spiritual insects were unique items. They were too precious to be traded.

“Sir doesn’t need to be disappointed. It’s not impossible to trade the crimson flame pill.” Liu Ming said seemingly casually.

“Tell me?” Elder Gu’s heart moved.

“Since your clan is good at breeding insects, you should have a lot of unique insights into nurturing the spiritual scorpion. If you can trade with this, I can hand over the crimson flame pill.” Liu Ming said lightly.

He was still quite worried about Xie’er’s current situation, and Xie’er was about to face the problem of advancing to the Celestial State. If he could get one or two supportive mystic arts from Qing Ling Race, maybe he could help Xie’er to advance.

“Mr. Liu wants to trade our insect breeding technique?” The patriarch said in a deep voice after hearing it.

“It’s just the method of nurturing spiritual scorpion. I’m not interested in the rest.” Liu Ming reminded, emphasizing the word “scorpion”.

When the patriarch heard that, his face became uncertain.

Insect breeding could be said to be the foundation for Qing Ling Race to gain a foothold in Savage Wild Continent, so it was naturally the most important thing in the clan. But the crimson flame pill was also extremely rare. With this elixir, the Qing Ling Race might have one more Celestial State cultivator, which would bring immeasurable benefits to the future development of the entire Qing Ling Race.

Thinking of this, the patriarch glanced at Elder Gu who happened to look over expectantly.

“Mr. Liu’s request, I can agree to it. But you need to swear that you will never teach this technique to anyone.” After weighing the pros and cons, the patriarch said with determination toward Liu Ming.

Liu Ming nodded upon hearing this.

There was nothing to consider about this. He had no intention of teaching the others, so he immediately swore the oath according to the method told by the patriarch.

Seeing Liu Ming swear without hesitation, the patriarch looked relieved. After glancing at the excited Elder Gu, he took out a blank bone jade slip, put it on his forehead and began to record.

After a quarter of an hour, he handed the jade slip to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming checked it roughly, nodded, and handed over the box containing the crimson flame pill to the patriarch.

After closing another deal, everyone was satisfied.

The attitude of Elder Gu and the patriarch also became very polite. They would treat them as eternal friends of the clan.

In the following time, several people chatted for a while, then Liu Ming and Lan Si got up to say goodbye and leave. Soon, they flew out of the valley where Qing Ling Race was.

Not long after, they appeared on the edge of the Black Prison Mountain Range.

After Lan Si activated the blue leaf-shaped flying magic weapon, they flew in the direction of Luo City.

“Congratulations to Mr. Liu for a fruitful trip. You even obtained the insect breeding technique of the Qing Ling Race. You must know that this technique is their secret. Saint King Blood Smear personally visited back then and promised a lot of benefits, but she also failed to make that Gu Xian let go.” Lan Si said enviously.

“I must also thank Fairy Lan. Otherwise, even if I spend another 10 years, I will definitely not be able to find this place.” Liu Ming was in a good mood after getting the skeleton silkworm.

“Mr. Liu is polite. It’s just a matter of lifting a finger.” Lan Si said with a smile.

“By the way, Fairy Lan, for the next period of time, I may have to practice in seclusion. The pill refinement can only be suspended temporarily.” Liu Ming suddenly remembered something and said to Lan Si.

“Mr. Liu’s self-training is important, I understand.” Lan Si was startled by this, then she forced a smile and said.

Liu Ming was now at the Real Pellet State perfect stage, so the implication was obvious that he was going to retreat to try to break through to the Celestial State. If he really advanced to the Celestial State, the cooperation with Blue Wood Race might come to an end.

Although refining pills could earn some spirit stones for Liu Ming, if he reached the Celestial State, this spirit stone was dispensable.

In the following time, they chatted with their own concerns and gradually fell silent.

Nothing happened along the way.

After a month of flying, they returned to Luo City safely. And after saying goodbye to each other, Liu Ming returned to the Little Huan Courtyard’s cave house.

As Liu Ming probed with Divine Thought, he saw that the secret room where Qian Rupin was in was tightly closed. She should still be consolidating her cultivation.

She had just broken through the Crystallization Period, so she indeed needed to retreat for a period of time. Liu Ming didn’t disrupt her. After checking the enchantment of the cave house, he returned to his secret room.

Although he had collected all the conditions to refine the Soul Absorb Voodoo now, the mind imitation insect had not fully recovered its vitality after returning, so the time for refining the voodoo could only be postponed for a few days.

After he fed another spiritual feed to the mind imitation insect, he sat down cross-legged and read the insect nurturing jade slip that the patriarch gave him.

Because Lan Si was with him, he hadn’t had time to check it out.

Liu Ming’s Divine Thouge was quickly immersed in the jade slip. It took about 3 hours before he opened his eyes again.

“It turns out that there are so many methods in the way of nurturing insects. It’s really unimaginable…” His eyes flickered, and he murmured.

The insect nurturing methods recorded on jade slip were extremely detailed. For spiritual scorpions of different attributes, their living habits, taboos, and advanced cultivation methods were recorded in detail by category.

According to the category on the jade slip, Bone Scorpion should originally belong to a kind of yin attribute ghost scorpion, but Xie’er had undergone many mutations and even devoured the egg of Si Chen, so she could no longer be classified according to ordinary spiritual scorpions.

However, Liu Ming still found 1 or 2 methods above that might help Xie’er advance. However, these 2 methods were currently difficult to achieve and require a certain amount of opportunity.

He couldn’t help sighing. He felt a little regretful to exchange it with a precious crimson flame pill.

However, he did gain something from this jade slip.

Liu Ming took off the green gourd from his waist, examined it, and muttered to himself,

“This Yin Conversion Gourd is actually made of ghost king wood…”

He had also heard about the ghost king wood, which was known as one of the 3 ancient yin wood. For those who practice the yin attribute technique, it was of great value whether in terms of forging and training.

However, because the yin qi contained inside the ghost king wood was too pure, except for the rumored special spiritual physiques, if other cultivators directly use the ghost king wood to practice ghost techniques, although their cultivation would improve quite quickly, it would easily damage their vitality and even affect their temperament.

Liu Ming secretly guessed that Xie’er had been a little irritable recently could be due to this reason. He had to remind her more in the future.

For the following time, he stayed behind closed doors in the cave house, studying the process of refining the Soul Absorb Voodoo over and over again.

After half a month of recuperation, the mind imitation insect finally regained its vitality. Liu Ming immediately started to refine the Soul Absorb Voodoo.

Speaking of refining voodoo, the general process was not much different from that of refining elixir.

Liu Ming first set up a small enchantment in the entire room to isolate Divine Thought. When refining voodoo, he needed an absolutely quiet environment.

After everything was ready, Liu Ming meditated for half a day to adjust his state of mind to an extremely stable state.

With a wave of his hand, a golden urn-shaped vessel appeared in front of him.

This voodoo vessel was necessary to refine the voodoo. There were many mysterious runes engraved on it. Liu Ming found it in Iron Beastkin Zong Yan’s storage ring. The quality was quite extraordinary, definitely not inferior to his Liushen Cauldron.

Immediately after he waved his hand again, there were more than a dozen bottles and jars beside him. These were various materials to refine the Soul Absorb Voodoo.

After breathing out lightly, Liu Ming swiped his finger on his wrist, and a wisp of blood was slowly injected into the vessel.

Most voodoo needed to use the blood of the refiner as the medium. The same was true for Soul Absorb Voodoo.

After filling half the vessel, Liu Ming flicked his wrist to close the wound, then he clasped his hands in front, making strange gestures. At the same time, he chanted with weird syllables.

Suddenly, he flicked a black light into the vessel.

Boom, the blood in the vessel was ignited with a bloody flame.

Liu Ming became very focused. He waved and launched a black silkworm into the vessel that was burning with bloody flame. It was the skeleton silkworm.

The skeleton silkworm let out a hissing sound immediately. It seemed to be in extreme pain. It opened its mouth, wanting to spit out something.

Liu Ming’s eyes flashed. He wrapped the skeleton silkworm in a black light immediately.

The skeleton silkworm’s body froze as if its whole body was imprisoned by the black light. It was slowly being submerged in blood flames.

The speed of the weird syllables that Liu Ming was chanting suddenly accelerated a lot, and his hands kept moving, launching black lights into the vessel.

The original bloody flame gradually turned dark red.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ming secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The first step of refining the voodoo was finally completed.

He pointed at a bottle, and a ball of white liquid flew out and dropped into the vessel under his control.

Next was the corpse of a red spiritual insect…

Liu Ming kept adding various materials to the voodoo refining vessel, and the color of the blood in the vessel was also changing constantly. When the last piece of green grass was added into the vessel, the flames suddenly extinguished, and the blood in the vessel had also turned into a dark purple liquid. It looked very viscous.

TL: Liu Ming won’t try to advance yet right? He still needs other supplement that boost the success rate right?
