A small casual cultivator!

Lu Luan said, "Brother Du, the reason I came here this time is actually to see if your auction house has any Xuanming insects for sale. I want to raise one recently."

"Xuan Ming insect."

Du Yu frowned slightly after hearing this. He naturally knew about this kind of spiritual insect. After a while, he said apologetically: "Brother Lu, Xuanming insects are still quite rare. Our auction house only auctioned them three months ago."

"Can we find it now? Brother Du, I need it urgently. Either larvae or half-grown ones will do." Lu Luan's tone was a little urgent.

Du Yu thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, Brother Lu. I'll talk to my parents when they come back. Some of the true disciples also have pets. We should be able to ask them. Maybe they want to sell them."

"Thank you very much, Brother Du."

Lu Luan thanked him immediately.

"It's just a small favor. Brother Lu, why don't you stay here for a few days? I should have news soon. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to contact you after you return to the sect." Du Yu said again.

"Well, I'm done."

Lu Luan nodded and agreed. Du Yu's auction house obviously had small houses for guests to stay in, so he just waited here for a few days.

……

Inside Zhengyang Gate.

"Master, we have discovered many dens of demonic cultivators near the sect. It seems that the Demon Sect is indeed planning to attack our Zhengyang Sect first this time."

In the main hall, a middle-aged man was reporting to the headmaster Huang Shigong.

"It seems that the battle will be outside Zhengyang Gate this time," Huang Shigong frowned, and then asked, "What are the reactions of the other three sects?"

The man said: "The Taixu Sect and Haoqi Sword Sect have already stated that if the lips and teeth are separated, they will send their masters to attack our Zhengyang Sect on a large scale. However, Changge Valley..."

"What happened to Changge Valley?"

Huang Shigong asked in a serious tone.

"For some reason, the Changge Valley's protective formation has been activated. The surrounding area is filled with poisonous miasma, and the several messengers I sent cannot get in." The man replied.

"I sent a message to their headmaster but he didn't get any response. Could it be that he has already shut himself up?"

Huang Shigong frowned and talked to himself.

“Master, although Changge Valley does not intend to participate, with the help of the two major mountain sects, Taixu and Haoqi Sword Sect, even if the Blood Spirit Sect makes a comeback, it will be difficult to turn the tables.”

"Well, but the storm is coming, so we have to prepare early. Invite fifty foundation-building elders from the cave to go out with the true disciples to fight the demons. Try to keep the demon stronghold away from the mountain gate. Otherwise, if they destroy the foundation of the sect protection formation, it will be disadvantageous to us."

"As commanded,"

After hesitating for a while, Huang Shigong said again: "Also, prepare to open the Soul Tower."

"What? The Soul-Opening Tower!"

The man looked at him in astonishment and frowned, saying, "Master, this may cause resistance from the elders and disciples in the sect."

"Resist? Haha, it's time to fight the disaster together. No one can stay out of it and get away with it unscathed!" A cold look flashed in Huang Shigong's eyes.

"Yes."

"You can leave now. Send someone to Changge Valley and report back immediately if there is any news."

"As ordered."

The man bowed and then left.

Next, Huang Shigong stared at the screen behind him silently, and murmured solemnly: "The storm is coming, and the building is full of wind. Will it be destroyed and then reborn from the ashes, or will it be burned down and destroyed by the wind?"

……

Two days later.

"Dong dong dong."

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, I got it, I got it."

Lu Luan, who was meditating on the art of formation, heard a knock on the door, so he slowly opened his eyes. After hearing Du Yu's voice, his face lit up with joy and he immediately got up and opened the door.

"Brother Du, how is it?"

Seeing Du Yu, Lu Luan asked hurriedly.

Du Yu smiled and said, "It's as expected. A friend of my parents happens to have an adult Xuanming worm that lays 200 eggs. If Brother Lu wants them, these eggs can just hatch into larvae."

"Eggs?"

Lu Luan frowned, because if the Xuanming worm did not devour its own kind, its development would be extremely slow. The little fellow in his hand had been raised by his master for decades and was only half grown.

If it were easy to raise, every disciple of the Immortal Sect would have one long ago.

"Brother Lu, how about you think about it? If you are slow, he might sell it to someone else." Du Yu urged.

"These eggs should be a great tonic for the little guy," Lu Luan thought for a while and asked, "Brother Du, how much do you sell the eggs for?"

"Three spirit stones for each, many people buy them to feed their own Xuanming insects to improve their abilities."

"Three spiritual stones?" Lu Luan frowned and said, "Brother Du, please tell my uncle and aunt, I want forty."

He now has more than a hundred spirit stones on him.

"Forty pills!" Du Yu looked at him in disbelief.

Lu Luan nodded and said, "Yes, I just want to wait until they are all hatched so that they can devour each other and grow quickly."

In fact, this is what many people do. Otherwise, if it is just a single method, it will take a long time to develop it to take effect.

Forty eggs are roughly equivalent to a half-grown worm.

"So that's how it is. Brother Lu, wait a moment. I'll go tell my parents right away."

After finishing speaking, Du Yu left quickly.

"Little guy, don't let me down." Lu Luan said silently, looking at the palm of his hand. After all, it was more than a hundred spirit stones. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel sorry for it.

And so, we waited for another half an hour.

……

"Brother Lu."

Half an hour later, Lu Luan was thinking about something in the house when he heard Du Yu's voice.

"coming."

Lu Luan hurried out.

After opening the door, he saw a beautiful woman standing next to Du Yu, so he immediately bowed and said, "Hello, aunt."

This person is Du Yu's mother, a true disciple of the sect, and has reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi Refining. Although he has seen her many times in the past few days, he did not dare to offend her in the slightest.

"No need to be so polite. I brought you the eggs you requested."

The woman smiled at Lu Luan and handed him four brocade boxes, which must have contained insect eggs.

As soon as the box appeared, the little guy in his hand couldn't hold back anymore, but fortunately he held it tightly.

"Excuse me, auntie."

Lu Luan was a little excited. After taking it, he immediately said.

"What trouble are you talking about? You are my Xiaoyu's friend. It's just a piece of cake."

The woman said that it was fortunate that he had potential value, otherwise she would not have gone to so much trouble for more than a hundred spirit stones.

"By the way, there will be an auction in a few days. Xiao Luan, why don't you stay here a little longer and see if you can find something you like at the auction." The woman continued.

Lu Luan shook his head and replied, "I have been bothering my aunt for so long. I am really sorry. I'd better go back to Qianzhu Peak to avoid worrying my master."

He made up an excuse. After all, the little guy was allowed to swallow insect eggs. If someone discovered the little guy's secret, although others might not covet it, they would have to be on guard.

Besides, there were not many spirit stones in his storage bag.

"That's right. If you need any help in the future, you can come to us."

Seeing that he was determined, the woman did not try to keep him.

"Thank you for your kindness, Auntie."

After Lu Luan bowed and said goodbye, he left.

Then it flew into the air.

"Forty grains, not bad!" As soon as he left, he couldn't wait to open the brocade box. Looking at the insect eggs in it that looked like crystal clear jade, he was very satisfied.

"puff……"

"puff……"

"Ok?"

Suddenly, not long after leaving Mucheng, Lu Luan saw dozens of figures flying from the horizon, passing over his head at an extremely fast speed, and landed in the city in the blink of an eye.

"what happened?"

Lu Luan couldn't help but stop and looked at Mu Cheng in astonishment, because from the aura emitted by those people, he could tell that they were all true disciples, and those with extremely deep cultivation!

"Did something happen?"

Lu Luan guessed that since so many powerful people were alarmed, something big must have happened. He did not dare to stay and immediately flew towards the horizon to avoid getting into trouble.

"boom!"

Suddenly, he felt a huge wave erupting from the city, and then he saw a huge formation rising up.

Lu Luan looked back at the huge magic circle and said with a look of fear: "Something really happened in the city. I'm afraid it was a demon cultivator. Fortunately, he got out. Otherwise, I don't know how long I would be trapped in it."

He guessed that there must be a demon hiding in the city, who was discovered by the sect and sent disciples to subdue the demon.

Without hesitation, he immediately increased the speed.

After a while, he arrived at Zhengyang Gate.

"Where's Xiaohe?"

Lu Luan landed back on Qianzhu Peak and found that Xiaohe was gone.

"This guy must have gone out to play again."

After shaking his head helplessly, he walked into his own hut. Xiao He was a very playful guy, and at this moment, no one knew where he was going to have fun.

"Ah."

When he pushed open the door, he found a note on the table. Lu Luan frowned slightly, picked it up and opened it.

The content roughly means: the sect has other arrangements for these fairy beast disciples, and all of them were called to the cave to train.

"Strange, why do I feel like something is a bit unusual in the sect recently?"

After reading it, Lu Luan put the paper down and muttered to himself.

There are some things that he, an ordinary inner disciple, is not qualified to know yet.

Although Xiao He has no hands, he can still write by controlling the pen with magic.

Although he was confused, he didn't care. No matter what happened, there would be tall people to support him.

"That's good. It saves me from having it yelling in my ear all day long."

Lu Luan shook his head and joked, then lit a fire and burned the paper.

"let's start."

After muttering something, he took out the brocade box containing the insect eggs.

In an instant, his palm began to move strangely.

"Little guy, you must be holding it in."

Lu Luan released the medicine insect.

I saw the little pupa rolling on the table, and finally it opened at the head, and the little guy crawled out from it again.

Lu Luan smiled and placed forty insect eggs in front of it.

The little guy was very hungry and started to chew on the food.

Looking at this scene, thinking that they were of the same species, Lu Luan couldn't help but be moved by the scene, and sighed in his heart: "It's really cruel. You have to swallow the eggs of the same species to improve."

In fact, what is not cruel in this world? Ghosts scaring ghosts, people eating people, it's everywhere.

"I wonder what it will look like after the transformation. Will it grow a pair of wings?"

Lu Luan looked at it expectantly, guessing that it would be able to emerge as a butterfly just like a caterpillar.
