Demon's Diary Chapter 1240: Male and Female Mind Imitation Insects

Chapter 1240: Male and Female Mind Imitation Insects

“If Mr. Gu Gu doesn’t need the spirit stones, I still have some rare materials…” Liu Ming pondered for a while and asked tentatively.

As a result, before he could speak, Elder Gu interrupted impatiently,

“In the case of the skeleton silkworm, I advise you not to forget about it. You 2 can go back now !”

After being rejected directly, Liu Ming felt a little sullen in his mind. At the same time, his thoughts kept spinning.

Lan Si obviously did not expect the other party to react like this, so she could only show a look of helplessness…

At this moment, on the other side of the cave house, there was a wave of spatial fluctuation.

In a flash of green light, an old man with a kind face and green eyebrows showed himself.

The long beard several feet below his chin was waving without wind. He faintly exuded a terrifying coercion belonging to the Celestial State powerhouse.

When Elder Gu saw this person, he immediately bowed respectfully,

“Greetings to patriarch.”

The old man with green eyebrows waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be too polite, then he looked at Liu Ming.

Liu Ming and Lan Si were also surprised when they heard Elder Gu calling the other party as patriarch. Just when they were about to bow, a few crisp insect chirps sounded from the old man with green eyebrows.

Before everyone could react, there was another chirps as if they were communicating, but the chirps had slightly lower tone. The chirps surprisingly came from Liu Ming.

This scene made Lan Si and Elder Gu look surprised.

Liu Ming frowned slightly.

The second chirp was actually made by the mind imitation insect on his body.

Seeing this, the old man with green eyebrows laughed boldly a few times. Immediately, he stepped toward Liu Ming, but before he came close, his joyful voices sonded,

“Sorry that I didn’t receive you 2 just now. I’m Gu Xian. Did you just want to trade own skeleton silkworm?”

“Patriarch Gu Xian is right. I want to trade the skeleton silkworm.” Liu Ming replied calmly while suppressing the doubts in his mind.

“Skeleton silkworm is one of the most precious spirit insects of our clan. It is of great significance to our clan, so this insect has never been traded.” When the old man with green eyebrows said this, he paused slightly.

Liu Ming’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t say anything.

“However, if you are willing to trade your mind imitation insect with it, I can fulfill the trade.” The old man with green eyebrows narrowed his eyes and said.

There was no surprise on Liu Ming’s face. When his mind imitation insect chirped, he vaguely guessed it. He just shook his head and said,

“Sorry, this mind imitation insect is very important to me. I’m afraid I can’t trade it to you.”

He wanted the skeleton silkworm and the mind imitation insect to refine the Soul Absorb Voodoo, so he of course couldn’t agree to it.

The patriarch’s face turned gloomy upon hearing that. He waved his arm slightly, and the chirps stopped immediately.

Almost at the same time, the mind imitation insect on Liu Ming also stopped chirping abruptly.

“Hmph, since Mr. Liu is not willing, then please leave.” Elder Gu glanced at the patriarch and snorted, asking them to leave once again.

Liu Ming narrowed his eyes, but his feet did not move.

He was determined to get the skeleton silkworm, so he of course wouldn’t leave like this.

“Is it really impossible to discuss this matter?” He was silent for a moment, then he said slowly.

Elder Gu sneered. It seemed that he was too lazy to answer Liu Ming’s question.

Liu Ming glanced at Elder Gu Xian who was also silent.

“Master, why bother being polite with these people? The power of this Qing Ling Race is quite ordinary. If it doesn’t work, we can just use combat power to force them to hand over a skeleton silkworm.” Xie’er’s indignant voice suddenly sounded in Liu Ming’s mind.

Liu Ming’s mind moved. In the past 40 years, Bone Scorpion’s cultivation had progressed extremely fast. She had reached the realm of Real Pellet State perfect stage now.

As her cultivation progressed, her temperament also became a little ferocious for some reason. She often had the thought of ​​killing.

This made Liu Ming a little worried.

“Xie’er, don’t be impatient. This Qing Ling Race is related to many Savage Wild Continent clans, and Lan Si is still here, it is better not to act recklessly unless it is absolutely necessary.” He comforted Xie’er with a voice transmission.

“Mr. Liu, since you are determined to get the skeleton silkworm, why don’t you trade it with a crimson flame pill? This elixir is said to be able to stimulate the bloodline power of the Qing Ling Race. Its effect on them is far greater than ours. I believe it will be difficult for them to refuse.” At this moment, Lan Si’s voice suddenly sounded in Liu Ming’s ear.

Liu Ming was startled, and he looked at Lan Si who nodded slightly.

“Don’t be so resolute. Why don’t you look at this before deciding!!” Liu Ming said with a slight smile after breathing out.

Then he took out a red box and opened the lid. There was an elixir flashing with red light inside, which was the crimson flame pill.

“Crimson flame pill!” Elder Gu blurted out in shock as soon as he saw the crimson flame pill.

On the other side, Gu Xian’s calm expression also changed slightly.

Seeing this, Liu Ming’s eyes flashed with joy. He said slowly,

“How about I trade this crimson flame pill and these materials for a skeleton silkworm?”

Then he flicked with one hand. There were 8 items that were full of spirits on the table. They were spirit gra.s.s, ore and upper grade beastkin materials. Each of these was collected when he was on the way to Luo City.

Elder Gu just glanced swiftly at the spiritual materials. His gaze still focused on the crimson flame pill in the end.

After a while, he realized that he had lost his composure, and he hurriedly calmed down. This crimson flame pill had a great effect on him. His cultivation had reached the Real Pellet State later stage now. If he could really get this crimson flame pill, he would have a great hope to advance to the Celestial State.

Thinking of this, he felt a little more excited, and he couldn’t help looking at the patriarch.

After the patriarch saw the crimson flame pill, he was also a little moved. He said after a while,

“Although what Mr. Liu offers are precious, the skeleton silkworm is the holy insect of our own clan. It can’t be measured with spiritual materials. Sir should put these things away.”

Liu Ming’s face darkened. Elder Gu at the side also showed a bit of disappointment. His lips moved slightly, but he didn’t say anything in the end.

“However, since you offer the crimson flame pill, it is enough to show your sincerity. If you can lend me your mind imitation insect, I can give you a skeleton silkworm.” The patriarch suddenly changed the thread of the conversation.

Liu Ming was taken aback by that. He looked at the patriarch in disbelief.

“Can patriarch tell me what are you going to do with my mind imitation insect?”

After a while. Liu Ming asked solemnly. Simultaneously, he kept the spiritual materials back into Sumeru Ring.

At this moment, the patriarch glanced at Lan Si indifferently.

Seeing this, Lan Si smiled sweetly.

“Since patriarch and Mr. Liu still have something to discuss, I will retreat for now.”

“Miss Lan, this way please. I’ll take you to pick the swift beetles.” Elder Gu took the lead to walk outside.

Lan Si gave Liu Ming a meaningful look and followed Elder Gu.

They quickly left the cave house, leaving only Liu Ming and the patriarch in the hall.

“Patriarch can speak now.” Liu Ming stared at the patriarch and said calmly.

“Okay, but before that, I wonder if Mr. Liu can show me your mind imitation insect?” The patriarch said so.

Liu Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this. With a wave of his hand, a golden insect appeared in his palm.

This insect was only 2 fingers long. Its body was covered with a layer of soft fiant golden carapace. There were several golden ring patterns on it. A single horn grew on its head.

The patriarch fixed his gaze on the mind imitation insect in Liu Ming’s hand. Although his expression was calm, Liu Ming still noticed a hint of excitement flashing deep in his eyes.

“Sure enough, it’s a male…” The patriarch withdrew his gaze after a while, and he murmured to himself.

Then he raised his hand. A silver light flashed in his palm. There was an insect that looked very similar to the mind imitation insect in Liu Ming’s hand.

But this one was a bit bloated in appearance. It was silvery white and had no horn on its head.

“Sir, your mind imitation insect is a male while mine is a female.”

Liu Ming glanced at the silver bug in the patriarch’s hand and nodded.

“The reason I want to borrow your mind imitation insect is very simple. I want to use my Qing Ling Race’s mystic arts to let these 2 mind imitation insects mate. As long as sir is willing to give me the insect eggs, I’m willing to give you a skeleton silkworm.” The patriarch said slowly.

“That’s all?” There was a hint of surprise in Liu Ming’s eyes.

“Yes, since sir has this mind imitation insect, you should also know that this insect is an ancient insect. There are very few surviving in this world. This female insect of mine was also obtained by a coincidence. If it can’t find a male to mate, it will die after more than a hundred years. The mind imitation insect may really be extinct from the world by then. Our clan will forever miss the opportunity to cultivate the mind imitation insect. If not for this, no matter how many treasures sir offers, I will never give you the skeleton silkworm.” The patriarch said firmly.

“Will the mating of 2 mind imitation insects cause any harm to my male insect? Also, the same is true for the mystic arts you just mentioned. Will it cause adverse effects to my mind imitation insect?” Liu Ming was silent for a moment, then he asked slowly.

Although Liu Ming didn’t know much about insect breeding, he also knew that many insects would be harmed after mating and laying eggs. Some female insects would even die directly after laying eggs.

“Don’t worry. Mind imitation insects can lay eggs many times in a lifetime. Each mating will only consume some vitality. Our mystic arts will only consume some mental power of the mind imitation insect. There will be no adverse effects. If sir doesn’t believe it, I can swear to my mind demon to a.s.sure you of that. What’s more, I will give you some elixirs for nurturing insect afterward, which is enough to restore its vitality.” The patriarch swore with hesitation upon hearing Liu Ming’s question.

TL: Will Liu Ming request for an egg also? One more mind imitation insect is a great boost for mental power though…
