A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 458 Deal

Lu Luan's eyes lit up and he asked, "So, Brother Hu should have brought a lot of underworld insect beast souls with him on this trip."

"What does Brother Lu want to do with this beast soul?" Hu Ting asked.

Lu Luan replied, "To be honest, for the purpose of refining weapons, everyone knows that the souls of Netherworm beasts are more suitable for weapon spirits than ordinary monsters. Recently, I was training in the Blood Swamp and heard that your family has an elder returning from Yongquanzhou. I thought of the family's needs, so I came to ask."

"Your family?"

"Fellow Daoist Hu, you don't know that my Lu family is an aristocratic family in Yunjing Prefecture. We don't have any other skills, but we are good at refining equipment. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Hu has heard of it?" Lu Luan said with a smile. Purchasing souls certainly cannot be said to be used to feed the demon seedlings.

Yunjingzhou is a state surrounding Bailuzhou.

Hu Ting shook his head and said, "That's not the case. I've lived to such an old age, and apart from Bailuzhou, I've only been to Yongquanzhou. Judging from your cultivation, I'm sure your family background is also very strong."

Lu Luan is already at the peak of the late foundation building stage at this age, and it really takes a family with strong heritage to cultivate him.

"Compared with the Yiqi Sect, it is still a bit inferior. Your sect is so magnificent and it is really eye-opening," Lu Luan replied modestly.

"Where."

"Fellow Daoist Hu, how do you negotiate the price of the Netherworm Soul?"

Hu Ting shook his head slightly, stroked his beard, and sighed, "Fellow Daoist Lu is late. We did harvest some souls of the Dark Insects when we came back before, but half a month ago, several races in the Wuding River got the information from somewhere and rushed here first, and they bought them."

“Has it been bought?”

Lu Luan frowned.

"Well, since we have a good relationship with the Yiqi Sect, I sold it to them. However, we still have some lower-quality souls of underworld insects in our sect. Would you like to take a look?"

Hu Ting looked at him apologetically and asked.

Lu Luan was disappointed at first because he was a step late, but when he heard that there was more, he immediately said, "Hu Daoyou, please take it out quickly."

Hu Ting just waved his hand, and a ball of green light floated out from his sleeves. The light disappeared, and a two-meter-long insect-like shadow appeared around him.

Its appearance was similar to the one he had seen at the bottom of the cave before.

After coming out, although his body was already in a soul state, the hostility in his eyes was still very shocking. When he saw them, he immediately became aggressive.

"Friend Hu, this beast soul doesn't seem to be very intelligent?"

After looking at him, Lu Luan frowned and asked.

He discovered that not only did this soul have low spiritual power, but even its eyes were gray. He could not tell any difference between it and an ordinary beast soul.

Hu Ting explained: "This is a bug soldier. Its strength is at the initial stage of foundation building and its intelligence is not yet developed."

Lu Luan also understood that it was most likely that the people who came first didn’t like it, otherwise they would have bought it all.

"It seems like he died not long ago." He suddenly noticed that the soul was still extremely solid, as if he had just died.

After looking at it for a while, he said, "Friend Hu, can you let me feel it carefully first?"

Although it is a bit regrettable, the specific situation depends on the reaction of the demon seedling.

"no problem."

Lu Luan opened his hand and sucked, and the soul of the dark insect gathered in the palm of his hand. He seemed to be observing it, but he actually cast his spirit into the storage ring.

It was seen that the demon seedling inside, which had been motionless for who knows how many years, seemed to sense something. A greedy spiritual thought spread out from the branches and leaves. At the same time, the roots spread everywhere in the storage ring frantically, as if searching for something.

"It seems that this dark insect soul also has a strong attraction to it."

Through this reaction, Lu Luan could roughly infer that the effect of the Netherworm soul was superior to that of other ordinary beast souls.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, how is it?" Hu Ting couldn't help asking when he saw that he was slow to speak.

Lu Luan returned the soul and said regretfully: "It's actually not bad, but the soul power is too low. It can only be used to refine into a low-level spiritual weapon."

"So what does Fellow Daoist Lu mean?"

Judging from Hu Ting's expression, he was obviously thinking of selling this beast soul at a good price. After all, it had no intelligence, and this unconscious soul would slowly dissipate after a long time even if it was sealed.

Lu Luan thought for a moment and asked, "How many?"

"There are still quite a few, more than 200."

"Are they all insect soldiers?"

Insect soldiers are not the ones with low intelligence. They are the largest in number and the weakest in strength.

"Yes, they are all insect soldiers."

"That's almost enough," Lu Luan thought for a while, then asked inexplicably, "Fellow Daoist Hu, are there any living Hellworms in your sect?"

He did not comment immediately.

Hu Ting nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, we brought back several hundred living insect soldiers this time. The purpose is to let the disciples in the sect gain experience and become familiar with the attack methods of the Dark Insect Tribe. We have reached an agreement with the elders of Pengling Sect on this trip. They agree that our sect can send disciples to Yongquanzhou to hone their skills with the disciples of Pengling Sect, and they are willing to provide corresponding resources."

"It seems that your clan's future development is limitless!"

After hearing this, Lu Luan immediately bowed and congratulated. Although independent cultivators could also help kill foreigners, except for exchanging corpses for rewards, Pengling Sect would not have any other resources to supply.

"No, it's all for the purpose of better resisting foreign invaders and safeguarding the immortal path." Hu Ting replied with a smile.

Lu Luan nodded, and then said seriously: "Friend Hu, I can take this beast soul, but I have a condition."

"Fellow Taoist, please tell me."

"Since you will send people to train continuously in the future, if you get the souls of highly intelligent Netherworms, you must leave a few for me." Lu Luan said.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist, there will be no problem." Hu Ting affirmed.

"Okay, Brother Hu, please show me the goods, and then we can slowly discuss the price."

"Friend Lu, please look."

Hu Ting took out a green bottle as thick as his arm from his storage ring.

Maybe there are too many souls in it, and the surging soul power can be felt even through the seal.

Lu Luan took it and scanned the interior with his soul, and found that it was full of green rays of different sizes.

"That's enough. The souls in this bottle alone are enough for the magic seedlings to produce three magic fruits."

After a slight sense, he was still shocked by the soul power in it. There was even a part of the soul of a Netherworm whose strength was in the middle stage of foundation building.

"It seems that Hu Ting has made an amazing harvest this time." Lu Luan sighed in his heart. There are only so many souls, and the reward for the body of the Nether Worm is difficult to estimate, not to mention that there will definitely be stronger Nether Worms killed.

After carefully weighing the items, Lu Luan put the bottle down and asked, "Fellow Daoist Hu, I won't be selective. I'll take all of them. Including this bottle, how about 1,500 intermediate spirit stones?"

"One thousand seven hundred spirit stones."

Lu Luan was a little speechless. It was really an exorbitant request.

"One thousand six hundred, the most." He wanted to reach a deal quickly, so he gave in a hundred.

"make a deal."

Hu Ting smiled and agreed. One thousand six hundred intermediate spirit stones was a considerable fortune for him.

After paying the spirit stones, Lu Luan asked again:

"Fellow Daoist Hu, I want to ask you something. I plan to go to Yongquanzhou for training in the future. Can you tell me what I need to pay special attention to when fighting against the Dark Insect Tribe?"

"Going to Yongquanzhou?"

Hu Ting frowned, his expression became serious, and he said, "I don't recommend you go. If you really want to go, it's best to find a way to go with the people of Pengling Sect, and avoid acting alone. This way you have a chance to live longer."

"Why?"

"Because the Dark Insects have a strong sense of cultivators, and they are always connected to each other, like a spider web. If you show up and are discovered or kill an opponent, you will be besieged by insect soldiers from all directions. Most independent cultivators cannot tell the difference and die because of this. Even some Jindan-strength insects will specifically lurk and hunt down lone cultivators."
