Chapter 29 Big Sun Amethyst Scorpion

It’s the New Year, and Zushan is bustling again, with a little more fireworks than usual. This year, I led my sister to pay New Year’s greetings to the elders at home and receive some red envelopes.

Lin Changqing is already 13 years old this year. His height has reached his father's nose bridge. In two years, he will be almost as tall as his father. He is getting better and better, and has the appearance of a handsome young man.

His mother even joked, "With this look, I wonder how many fairies you will charm in the future!" Lin Changqing felt embarrassed by his mother's words.

To be honest, he himself had never cared about his appearance. Ever since he knew that this was a world of cultivating immortals, he was more focused on pursuing strength.

Chuwu had already taken the Hundred-Year-Old Vermilion Fruit before the New Year, and is now a first-rank lower-grade spirit beast. This way it will be safer for his father to participate in the monster hunt.

There are also three new members in the space, two red fruit trees that are about ten to twenty centimeters tall. They were planted three days ago and have already spawned twice.

Another one is that the roots of the Qingyu Tea Tree have finally sprouted, just 2 cm above the ground. This growth rate is a bit slow! But it may be because it is different from the Lingguo Tree, which will not mature until the year.

But as long as the tea trees grow similarly, some tea leaves can be collected every once in a while. Soon, Lin Changqing will be able to drink the green jade tea produced by himself.

Through the cultivation of the green jade tea tree roots, it is proved that as long as there are some roots, they can be revived through space. In the future, the source of high-level spiritual plants will be more extensive, which is very good news.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and today it was time to renew the blood contract. After Lin Changqing completed today's training, he went straight to his grandfather's house. After saying goodbye to his grandfather, he entered the same training room as last time.

After putting the spirit insect eggs away and observing them carefully for a while, I found that the purple color on the eggshell was a little richer than before. And it felt that the vitality of the insect eggs was stronger. It should be one step closer to hatching.

He began to perform the spell of the blood contract. After performing the spell with ease and after the spell was immersed in the magic circle, Lin Changqing dripped two drops of blood essence on the magic circle.

The contract formation then began to spread with blood mist, which was successfully absorbed by the insect eggs. This marked the success of the second blood contract.

He took out the spiritual medicine for replenishing qi and blood and started eating it, then circulated the Qi in his body to refine it. Finally, he felt better. After all, losing four points of essence and blood in ten days was indeed a bit too much. Lin Changqing decided to just contract three times. If he did more, it would affect his foundation.

After this contract, the connection between the two sides became stronger, and the baby will be born soon.

Should we consider preparing food for the little ones? We should also say hello to Chuyi and the others and not eat these little cuties. You know, Garudas love to eat insects the most!

A month passed in a flash. After completing the third blood contract twenty days ago, Lin Changqing left the spirit insect eggs in the magic circle and did not take them away. He would come to check on them every other day.

I had just finished my training today and I felt something strange in my heart. Lin Changqing had the experience of watching a golden-winged bird hatching, so he immediately guessed that the little ones might be about to be born.

Now it is guarding next to the magic circle. All the purple insect eggs inside are already covered with cracks. Finally, one of them breaks through the shell first. A lavender crystal-like pincer knocks out the shell, and soon one crystal-like small scorpion after another breaks out of the shell.

In about an hour, all 124 scorpions had hatched, and a group of lavender crystal scorpions all crawled towards Lin Changqing. Fortunately, he didn't have claustrophobia, otherwise he would have been covered with goose bumps.

Lin Changqing carefully observed these little guys. Each one was about three centimeters long. Even if the tail was straightened, it was less than six centimeters. They had a slender body and strong limbs.

It is certain that these are definitely not purple cloud scorpions. To find out what they are, we need to compare them with the Spirit Insect Chart or the List of Strange Insects. The most urgent task now is to feed them first.

When the prepared white and tender insect meat was taken out, the little guys rushed over and started to eat the food frantically.

While they were eating, Lin Changqing took out the Spirit Insect Catalog and turned to the scorpion section and compared them one by one, but found that none of them matched.

He then took out the list of strange insects in the appendix of the insect cultivation inheritance, and finally found a similar one at the 36th place on the list, named the Great Sun Amethyst Scorpion.

The Big Sun Amethyst Scorpion is not a spiritual insect with the five elements attributes, but a rare social creature with soul and light attributes. It is small in size and moves fast.

It is an omnivorous spiritual insect that will eat any meat, spiritual medicine, spiritual fruit, or spiritual plant as long as it has spiritual energy. It especially likes to gnaw on spiritual stones and spiritual crystals.

They like to chew on spiritual crystals, amethysts, ice crystals, various five elements crystals, etc.

At the first level, the main means of attack is the big sun purple light needle at the tail, which is very fierce and effective in breaking shields and covers.

And once the prey is stabbed in the body, it will feel severe pain, as if its soul is being torn apart. If it is stabbed by multiple scorpions, it may die in pain.

The means of defense is the crystal shell on the body. As age and cultivation increase, the defense of the crystal shell will become stronger and stronger. The color will also become darker and darker. It is still light purple now. It will become dark purple in the future. And because it is a light spirit insect, it can also perform low-level invisibility, and the effect is very good.

At the second level, you will comprehend your innate spell, the Purple Ray, which has the same effect as the Purple Needle, except that one is for close attack and the other is for long-range attack.

It will also grow its first pair of amethyst wings, and the color of its shell will become darker. Its invisibility will also become more sophisticated.

When it reaches the third level, it will automatically comprehend the advanced invisibility technique, and the purple light ray will be upgraded to the soul-crushing ray. And it will grow a second purple crystal wing.

There are no records of fourth-order cultivators, but there are records of many Jindan-stage cultivators dying at the hands of third-order Great Sun Amethyst Scorpions.

Lin Changqing looked at the record on the list of strange insects in his hand and couldn't help but smile. He was very satisfied with the Great Sun Amethyst Scorpion.

There are no other things, but are there no spiritual fruits and high-level spiritual stones? Especially spiritual fruits, just plant a few more.

These little guys were fine at the first stage, but they were amazing at the second stage. They could be invisible, fly, attack from a distance, and attack with their souls. They were natural hunters. No wonder they were ranked 36th on the list of strange insects!
Do we need to focus on training them well? Let them advance earlier, and give them more spiritual fruits in the future.

Now Lin Changqing can be sure of one thing, that is, the purple halo must be related to the soul. For example, the Earth Soul Fruit Tree and the Big Sun Amethyst Scorpion both have purple halos. One increases soul power and the other can attack souls, so they are also related to the soul.

Not bad, not bad. I have a better understanding of my abilities now. It will become clearer and clearer in the future.

Lin Changqing considered another question: whether or not to let his family know about the Amethyst Scorpion.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell them. Lin Changqing didn't want to hide everything from his family. Happiness should be shared. Lin Changqing believed that they would not betray him.

Besides, if they know that they have such powerful self-defense methods, they will feel more at ease when they go out on their own in the future, right?

At this time, the amethyst scorpions had finally finished their meal and all crawled onto Lin Changqing's chest and stomach, obviously treating Lin Changqing as their mother.

I still need to find a spirit beast bag or a spirit insect bag, otherwise if I go out like this, my sister will be scared to death when she sees me.

After packing up, I left the training room, met my grandfather, and told him about the amethyst scorpion.

Grandpa was amazed and told Lin Changqing to train them well and never let them die easily.

He would go to the General Affairs Hall to see if there was a spirit beast bag. If not, he would go to Pingyang Market to buy one for Lin Changqing later.

Tell Lin Changqing not to go out yet and wait here for a while. He will go to the General Affairs Hall to see if he can exchange it.

After saying that, he went to the direction of the General Affairs Hall. After a while, he came back with a small bag in his hand. I guess it should be.

"The General Affairs Hall doesn't have a spirit insect bag. This is a spirit beast bag. Use it first and exchange it for a better one later!"

"Thank you, Grandpa." Lin Changqing quickly thanked his grandfather.

I also told my grandfather that I wanted to let my family know about the Amethyst Scorpion, and he agreed after thinking about it.

Lin Changqing refined the spirit beast bag again, then put the amethyst scorpion in it and hung it around his waist. This time he didn't have to worry about scaring others.

In the evening, after dinner, when everyone gathered together, he told everyone about the Amethyst Scorpion. Everyone clamored to see it, so Lin Changqing had no choice but to summon it out for everyone to get to know it.

My mother and aunt all exclaimed that the amethyst scorpion was beautiful, like amethyst. If it could not move, no one would think it was a living creature.

This gave Lin Changqing an idea. If he made a beautiful amethyst hairpin, he could let the amethyst scorpion cling to it and wait for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow. This was a powerful weapon to harm people!

Good idea, I'll write it down first. Unfortunately, it's only suitable for women. I'll wait until the Amethyst Scorpion becomes stronger. If necessary, I can give one each to my mother, aunt, and sister.
