Chapter 15 First Battle

Zhou Changwang naturally couldn't hold a knife and chop people while continuing to cast spells.

But just dodging sideways would not affect his casting of the Gengjin Finger spell.

Squeak, squeak, squeak...

The Spirit Locust King squeaked wildly, and after a slight pause, he turned around again and pounced on Zhou Changwang.

The two knife-like front claws flashed a cold light under the sunlight.

Moreover, as he squeaked, the surrounding spirit insects suddenly seemed to have heard the call, and were quickly attracted and rushed towards this side...

The insect king can call on a group of insects.

Zhou Changwang was calm, and while condensing the rune structure, he kept paying attention to the movements of the Spirit Locust King.

Seeing this, he suddenly evaded sideways again.

Then, the Gengjin Finger that was finally condensed rushed out quickly under his control.

Gengjin Finger +3

Swish!

It fell directly on the neck of the Spirit Locust King and separated its head.

Even with its tenacious vitality, it still used its front paws to slash forward at the moment of its head separation, forming two tiny blades that cut through the air and cut off the weeds in the spiritual field, but it was no longer a threat.

As for the spiritual insects he summoned, they scattered again at the moment of his death and hid in the spiritual field again.

"Finally solved it.

This insect king is indeed more troublesome than ordinary spiritual insects."

Zhou Changwang confirmed that it was dead, and then threw it into the cloth bag.

Looking at its size comparable to four or five ordinary spiritual locusts combined, a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.

However, when his eyes fell on the attribute panel, he was suddenly surprised.

"The proficiency of Gengjin Finger is not right."

After comparing before and after, he found that the proficiency of the Gengjin Finger he cast increased by '3' points.

'3' points is not much.

But this means that his spell training can be 'quickly completed'.

After all, one spell adds three points, two spells add six points... Once the number increases, it can save him a lot of time and spiritual power.

"What's the reason?"

Zhou Changwang thought about it and soon understood it.

Fighting!

Because of fighting!

Indeed, compared with the previous step-by-step casting - even when killing insects, it is to condense the spell and then aim at the target, which is simple and direct. Casting in battle like this, while considering the smooth condensation of the spell, you have to aim at the target while moving, which is indeed much more difficult.

"This is a bit difficult to form a routine."

Zhou Changwang shook his head helplessly.

Just at this time, Xu Zhong came back with lunch in the distance.

Zhou Changwang also stopped killing insects and returned to the ridge.

"Spirit rice, black-horned barbarian beef fried with red spirit flowers... Fellow Daoist Xu, this is a bit rich."

Zhou Changwang looked at the lunch brought by Xu Zhong and said with a surprised face.

Not to mention the spiritual rice, one low-grade spiritual stone is worth 11 jin. The unicorn is a demon beast. Although it is only the lowest level and is raised by humans, its flesh and blood are also very expensive. One low-grade spiritual stone can only buy three to five jin. And the red spiritual flower is actually one of the spiritual materials, which can be used as a medicinal meal. Fifteen broken spirits are worth one jin...

In other words, this meal is worth forty or fifty broken spirits, which is equivalent to half a spiritual stone.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou has taken so much trouble to help me get rid of insects, so I naturally can't be stingy."

Xu Zhong smiled and took Zhou Changwang's cloth bag, looked at the harvest inside, and then took a closer look. He stood up in shock and exclaimed: "This, this, this... Is this the insect king? Or the spiritual locust insect king?"

He was really shocked.

He thought that Zhou Changwang's insect removal method was very strong. He also witnessed the other party's clean and neat attack before. He was very excited and thought that the danger of his spiritual field would definitely be solved.

That is why he gave Zhou Changwang the bottle of Yuanqi Pill to restore his spiritual energy, and why he deliberately served spiritual rice for lunch, and also carefully fried black-horned barbarian beef with red spiritual flowers.

But he did not expect that Zhou Changwang would bring him such a big surprise.

Killed a worm king.

This undoubtedly shows that Zhou Changwang's insect control method is higher than he imagined.

"This spiritual locust worm king is worth ten times more than ordinary spiritual insects. Kill one, and I will count it as you killed ten.

In addition to the other spiritual insects, how about I give you two low-grade spiritual stones?"

Xu Zhong quickly calculated the price and then spoke.

He had expected that his five acres of spiritual fields would definitely reduce production, but fortunately, even if the production was halved, the remaining harvest would be enough for him to pay off the loan from the Spiritual Planting Hall, so his move seemed a bit generous.

"That's not necessary.

One spiritual locust king can be counted as five ordinary spiritual insects."

Zhou Changwang waved his hand and said.

As the saying goes, you should be grateful to someone who has given you something. He had previously taken a bottle of Yuanqi Dan from someone else, and now he was eating his spiritual rice. Of course, he felt embarrassed to take advantage of him.

"That's fine."

Xu Zhong had no choice but to nod his head.

After eating the spiritual rice and the black-horned barbarian beef, a trace of spiritual energy floated in his stomach, making him feel warm and comfortable. He just wanted to take a good rest and sleep lazily.

However, Zhou Changwang was reluctant to waste the spiritual energy, so he sat cross-legged and began to practice the Five Elements Sutra to absorb and refine the spiritual energy in his body.

One Zhoutian, two Zhoutian, three Zhoutian...

Five Elements Sutra +3

Cultivation +1

When he opened his eyes.

His spiritual power was restored to perfection again, and even his cultivation was improved to a certain extent.

At this time, Lao Xu also came back from lunch at home, and he greeted him from a distance to ask about the results of the pest control.

When he saw the spiritual locust king, his eyes widened and he exclaimed repeatedly.

...

In the afternoon, he spent the time of pest control and recovery using Yuanqi Pills.

The effect was also very gratifying!

He harvested a king insect and 47 spiritual locusts in Xu Zhong's spiritual field all day long.

And Xu Zhong handed him five low-grade spiritual stones one by one as promised.

Of course, in addition to Xu Zhong's spiritual field, he naturally would not forget his three acres of land. After routine pest control, he also harvested six spiritual insects.

"Today's whole day is a great harvest."

Zhou Changwang touched the five spiritual stones in his arms, and then set his eyes on the cloth bag full of spiritual insects.

The cloth bag was made of good material. It was made of the shed skin of a snake monster. It had good elasticity, but it looked bulging and heavy at this time.

"If there are still no merchants coming to the spiritual field to purchase tomorrow, I can only go to the casual cultivator market again."

Zhou Changwang carefully placed the cloth bag in the corner of the room, and then took out a small wooden box.

Opening the box, three black seeds the size of a little finger lay quietly in it.

These three black seeds were given to him by the spiritual plant master Chen Yushu, whom he met when he got up early to buy spiritual rice.
