Chapter 448: Strange Insect List No.

So he said directly to Song Yuran who was leading the way, "Stop being so slow, speed up, I don't have time to waste here!"

Song Yuran hurriedly turned around and agreed, then sped up.

Lin Changqing, on the other hand, took advantage of Chuyi's warning. As long as they found monsters ahead, if there were only a few of them, they would just rush over and kill them with one round of attack.

Then quickly collect the monster corpses and leave. If you encounter a large number of monsters, then take a little time to take a detour.

Song Yuran didn't dare to stop on the way. He kept on walking while taking pills to restore his mana.

After traveling for several hours, they finally didn't waste too much time and arrived safely at the place where Song Yuran found the cicada before dark.

It was a large purple bamboo forest. Lin Changqing recognized these spiritual bamboos. This was a first-level purple bamboo, but it would not grow too tall. At its highest, it would be only about fifteen feet tall.

But it is not absolute. If the place where it grows has sufficient spiritual energy and it grows for enough years, the first-level purple bamboo may turn into purple jade bamboo, which is a second-level spiritual material.

I guess Song Yuran discovered this purple bamboo forest yesterday and wanted to go in to look for the second-level purple jade bamboo, which is why he encountered those terrifying cicadas!

However, when they were four or five hundred feet away from the purple bamboo forest, Song Yuran did not dare to get any closer, and Lin Changqing did not make things difficult for her and asked her to wait there.

He approached the purple bamboo forest. When he was about two hundred feet away, the sound of cicadas chirping was heard from the forest. Lin Changqing was just in a trance for a moment and felt nothing.

However, it also confirmed for him that Song Yuran did not lie to him. There were indeed cicadas here, and there seemed to be quite a lot of them, estimated to be at least one or two hundred.

Lin Changqing suppressed his excitement and returned to Song Yuran. He took a look at her and then said seriously, "Those in the purple bamboo forest are indeed the God-shaking Cicadas!

In this way, even if our transaction is successfully completed, I want you to swear a great oath that you will not reveal my information to anyone in any form or by any method.

Including the fact that I know thunder magic, these terrifying cicadas, and everything you have seen about me, you must not mention them to anyone else.

And even if we meet again in the future, we must pretend that we don’t know each other. Can you do what I said?”

Song Yuran felt a little creepy when he looked at her. She knew that this great oath was related to her life and death, so she did not dare to hesitate at all.

He was very straightforward and made a great vow according to Lin Changqing's request.

Seeing how sensible she was, Lin Changqing didn't want to do anything to destroy her bridges after crossing them. He still had his own moral bottom line.

He has also never forgotten how he got his innate moral eye, so he is very particular about what he does.

So he took out his storage bag and shook it, and out fell the corpses of four second-stage early-stage monsters.

Then he said: "The corpses of these monsters on the ground are the ones we encountered just now, and the monster pills in their bodies have not been taken out yet.

This is your reward. After you take it, leave here immediately before it gets dark."

Song Yuran hesitated to speak. She actually wanted to continue to follow Lin Changqing. The core disciples were strong and their safety was guaranteed. If the two of them could cooperate in hunting, she would ask Lin Changqing to give her some demon pills.

It's better than her wandering around alone, which is not only too dangerous but also not necessarily yielding much.

However, seeing Lin Changqing's cold and ruthless look, she knew that he would not agree to be with her, so she could only nod, pick up the monster corpse on the ground, and turn around and leave.

Lin Changqing looked at her. After she was out of his sight, he flew around the purple bamboo forest. He wanted to find a suitable place nearby.

We are going to set up camp here tonight. As usual, after finding a suitable place, we will set up the maze formation.

Then all the first- and second-level purple crystal scorpions were released. They automatically formed a three-layer three-dimensional defense circle and then disappeared.

After summoning Chuyi back, he entered the magic circle and found the list of strange insects that came with the insect cultivation inheritance in his storage bag.

I read it carefully and finally found a detailed introduction to the Jingshen Cicada at a relatively later point.

Ranked ninety-eighth on the list of strange insects, it is a social spiritual insect that feeds on the juice of spiritual trees, spiritual bamboos, or spiritual liquids rich in spiritual energy. Its innate magic is the art of shock.

At the first stage, their abilities weren't that strong, so they were called "Shock Cicadas!"

After successfully molting three times, they are promoted to the second stage, and only then can they be officially called "God-shaking Cicadas!"

If it can shed its shell three more times, it will become a third-level spirit insect, and at this time it can be called a "Fallen God Cicada!" You don't need too many of them, just a dozen or so.

If they work together well, they can release continuous third-order soul-shocking techniques. With the added bonus of their special talents, even Jindan cultivators would not dare to provoke them.

If you are surrounded by them, there is a very high possibility that you will die directly, and your soul will be destroyed.

However, they also have weaknesses. The first one is that their bodies are not strong and are relatively fragile. If their bodies are hurt, they can easily die.

The second is that they are extremely harmful to spiritual trees and bamboos. After all, they are pests to all spiritual plants.

The God-Shocking Cicada specializes in lying on spiritual plants and sucking their sap to survive, which is quite costly for the spiritual plants!
The third shortcoming is that it is not so easy to shed the shell and advance. Every time you shed the shell, you are going through a life and death crisis. There is a very high possibility of failure and you will not be able to break out of the shell successfully.

Especially when it comes to advancing to a higher level, the difficulty is even greater. There is only about a 30% success rate in advancing from the first level to the second level.

When entering the third stage from the second stage, it is exaggerated, only three out of a hundred survive. That is to say, out of a hundred advanced cicadas, only about three can successfully advance.

There is no mention of the third stage entering the fourth stage, but even if it is not mentioned above, Lin Changqing can guess that the success rate is
It must be so low that it would be outrageous to modern people, but it is still quite far away from him now, and he does not want to waste his energy to explore it at this time.

He was just thinking about how he would feed these cicadas if he really caught them.

Although there are indeed many spiritual plants in the inner space, they all play a very important role to him and it is impossible for him to let the cicadas eat them up.
