Chapter 15.
tan san naturally couldn’t do the same thing as holding a sword against someone and still be able to keep casting spells.
However, just dodging sideways would not affect his ability to cast the Gungjin Finger spell.
Squeak ……
The Spirit Locust Bug King squeaked madly, and between a slight pause, it turned around once again and pounced towards tan san.
Those two knife-like front claws, under the sunlight, actually flashed with a cold aura.
Moreover, with his squeak, the surrounding suddenly seems to have spiritual insects heard the call, quickly be led, rushing to this side …….
The Insect King, by nature, was able to call on the swarm of insects.
tan san’s mind was calm, and while condensing the runic structure, he had been paying attention to the movements of that Spirit Locust Bug King.
Seeing this, he once again jerked sideways to dodge.
Then, the Gung Jin Finger, which had finally condensed, quickly rushed out under his control.
Gungjin Finger +3
Snort!
It landed directly on the neck of that Spirit Locust King, separating its head.
Even with its tenacious vitality, it still slashed its front claws forward with force the moment its head was separated, actually forming two tiny slashes that cut through the air and chopped through the weeds in the Spirit Fields, but were no longer a threat.
As for those Spirit Insects that were summoned by him, they dispersed once again at the moment of his death and re-hid themselves within the Spirit Field.
“Finally, I’ve solved it.
This Insect King, is indeed much more troublesome than ordinary Spirit Insects.”
tan san confirmed that it was dead before he threw it into the cloth bag.
Looking at its size, which was comparable to four or five ordinary Spirit Locusts combined, a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face.
However, when his gaze landed on top of the attribute panel, he was instantly surprised.
“The proficiency of the Gengjin Finger, it’s not right.”
After comparing before and after, he realized that the proficiency of this Gungjin Finger he had performed had increased by ‘3’ points.
‘3’ points wasn’t much.
However, it represented that his spell cultivation could be ‘quick’.
After all, one spell increased by three points, and two would be six points……. When the number was high, it could save him a lot of time and spiritual energy.
“Then what about the reason?”
tan san pondered and quickly realized.
Combat!
Because of battles!
Indeed, compared to the step-by-step spell casting before – even when removing insects, it was simple and straightforward to condense the spell and then aim it at the target. Casting spells in the middle of a battle like this, while considering the smooth condensation of the spells, it was indeed much more difficult to aim them at the target while in motion.
“It’s a bit difficult to form a standing example.”
tan san shook his head helplessly.
At this exact moment, Xu Zhong returned with his lunch in the distance.
tan san also obediently stopped continuing to remove the insects and returned to the ridge.
“Spirit rice, Black Horned Barbarian Beef Stir Fry with Red Spirit Flowers …… Fellow Daoist Xu this is a bit hearty.”
tan san looked at the lunch Xu Zhong had brought and said with a surprised face.
Spirit rice is not to mention, a piece of lower grade spirit stone ten a catty, one-horned barbarian cow is a demonic beast, although it is only the lowest level, and is being bred demonic beasts, but its flesh and blood is also extremely expensive, a piece of lower grade spirit stone can also buy a three or five catty. And the red spirit flower is also actually also considered one of the spirit materials, can be used as a medicinal meal, fifteen broken spirit a catty ……
In other words, this meal, worth forty to fifty broken spirits, was equivalent to half a spirit stone.
“Fellow Daoist Zhou has taken so much trouble to help me get rid of the insects, so naturally I can’t be stingy.”
Xu Zhong smiled and opened his mouth, and also obediently took tan san’s cloth bag and looked at the harvest inside, then fixing his eyes, he stood up in horror and exclaimed, “This this …… this is the Bug King? Or is it the Spirit Locust Bug King?” He was indeed shocked.
He had thought about tan san’s strong means of getting rid of insects, and the cleanliness of the other party’s strikes before, which he had witnessed with his own eyes, was so exhilarating in his heart that he thought that the danger of his Spirit Fields would inevitably be resolved.
It is for this reason that he will give the bottle of Yuan Qi Dan to tan san to restore the spiritual qi, to send the lunch, will also deliberately serve spiritual rice, and also carefully fried a black horn barbarian beef with red spiritual flowers.
However, he did not expect that tan san would bring him such a big surprise.
He had killed an Insect King.
This undoubtedly showed that tan san’s means of eliminating insects was even higher than he had imagined.
“This Spirit Locust Bug King is worth ten times more than an ordinary Spirit Bug. If you decapitate one, I’ll consider that you’ve decapitated ten.
Together with the other Spirit Locust Bugs, how about I give you two more Inferior Spirit Stones?”
Xu Zhong quickly calculated the price and then opened his mouth.
He had already anticipated that his five acres of spirit field would definitely have a reduced yield, but the good thing was that even if the yield was cut in half, the rest of the harvest would still be enough for him to pay back the loan from the Spirit Plant Hall, and thus his offer was somewhat generous.
“That’s not necessary.
One Spirit Locust King counts as five ordinary Spirit Insects will do.”
tan san waved his hand and said.
As the saying goes, taking a man’s hand is short, eating a man’s mouth, he had previously taken a bottle of Yuan Qi Dan from someone else, and now that he had eaten the other party’s Spirit Rice, of course he was too embarrassed to take advantage of it more than he should have.
“In that case, good.”
Xu Zhong also had no choice but to nod his head when he heard this.
As the Spiritual Rice with Black Horned Barbarian Beef went down, a trace of spiritual qi fluttered and wandered in his stomach, making his entire body warm and comfortable, only wanting to take a good rest and sleep lazily.
However, tan san didn’t want to waste this spiritual qi, he hurriedly sat on his knees and began to run the Five Elements Skill to absorb and refine the spiritual energy in his body.
One weekday, two weekdays, three weekdays ……
Five Elements Technique +3
Cultivation +1
When he broke open his eyes.
His spiritual energy was then once again restored to perfection, and even his cultivation, with it, received a certain boost.
And at this time, Old Xu also came back from lunch at his house, greeting and asking about the results of the de-worming from a long distance.
When he saw the Spirit Locust Worm King, he was even more round-eyed and exclaimed in astonishment.
In the afternoon, he spent his time removing insects and using Yuan Qi Dan to recover.
The results, too, were very pleasing!
He had harvested a bug king and forty-seven Spirit Locusts in Xu Zhong’s spirit field in a whole day.
And as promised, Xu Zhong handed over five lower grade spirit stones to him in turn.
Of course, in addition to Xu Zhong’s spiritual field, he naturally wouldn’t forget his own three acres of land, and routinely de-wormed it down to harvest six Spirit Locusts as well.
“It’s a full harvest after a whole day today.”
tan san touched the five Spirit Stones in his bosom, and then he set his eyes on the cloth bag filled with Spirit Insects.
That cloth bag, the material is actually not bad, is a certain snake type demonic beast’s molted skin cut and made, stretchability is good, but at this time also seems to be bulging, the weight is not light.
“If there are still no travelers to purchase from the spiritual land tomorrow, we will have to make another trip to the Scattered Cultivation Bazaar by ourselves.”
tan san carefully placed the cloth bag in the corner of the room before taking out a small wooden box.
Opening the box, three small thumb-sized black seeds were lying quietly in it.
These three black seeds were exactly what the Spiritual Planter Chen Yushu, who was acquainted with him, had gifted to him when he had purchased the Spiritual Rice early in the morning.
