Chapter 80: From Cobweb to Butterfly

Su Qingwu recalled his experience in Jinyuan Pavilion and pondered:

"If I had agreed to leave Gu Luo City through the secret passage to avoid danger, I would have owed them a huge favor. If they come to me for something in the future, I would not be able to refuse them."

Su Wen nodded, "Yes, fortunately you didn't agree at that time, otherwise I'm afraid I would have gotten into a big trouble."

Su Qingwu looked at the gilded precious leaf in his hand with a complicated expression.

"Opportunity and disaster are often just a thought away."

"Nothing will fall from the sky for no reason. Everything has a cause and effect relationship."

"Fortunately, it has now been confirmed that there is no problem with the gilded precious leaf. Otherwise, even if it is a top-grade spiritual weapon, I will never carry it with me."

As Su Qingwu said this, a gurgling sound came into her ear.

From the time when he began to sacrifice the spirit vessel till now, two whole days have passed without him drinking a drop of water or eating a grain of rice.

I was concentrating on thinking about important matters just now and didn't feel anything. Now that my mind has relaxed, I suddenly feel hungry.

She quickly went out and started to prepare spiritual food...

......

After about an incense stick of time had passed, Su Qingwu filled his stomach, stood up and walked towards the spiritual field, performing the Small Spiritual Rain Technique and the Spring Breeze Rain Technique to water the numerous spiritual plants.

After nearly two hours, she stopped casting the spell, and most of the soul-returning talismans in her storage bag were used up.

Move to other areas, feed white-feathered chickens and spirit fish, and then walk to the place where the seven-legged insect is placed. Find that the seven-colored insect is gone from the nest, and only a white cocoon is left.

Su Qingwu was surprised at first, but then he reacted.

The seven-legged insect has tied a cocoon. If successful, it can transform into a questing butterfly.

If you encounter an enemy in the future, with the Seeking Butterfly around, as long as it senses the corresponding scent, you can easily find the enemy even if he escapes.

In addition, this butterfly can also create illusions to trap enemies.

All in all, as long as the seven-legged worm can successfully break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, it will become a great help to her in the future.

However, for insect beasts, this process is very dangerous, and they cannot get any outside help and can only rely on themselves.

Su Qingwu observed for a while, then left quietly and went to the outside world with Su Wen.

Now in Guluo City, she still has one thing to accomplish, which is to sell the large number of spiritual plants she has harvested.

Without special storage containers, the medicinal properties of spiritual plants will begin to slowly disappear after being stored for a maximum of one year after being harvested.

By then, the value will gradually decrease.

In Guluo City, there are seven businesses that purchase spiritual plants.

Su Qingwu planned to sell it in small batches, visiting one store every day to avoid being targeted again.

Today we went to Baizhi Church.

Due to its relatively remote location, not many monks come and go here. In the hall there is a female monk of the seventh level of Qi training who is dressed simply and a girl who is ten years old.

The former kept calculating the bills with his abacus, while the latter explained the uses of some spiritual plants to the guests from time to time. Although he was young, he was very sensible.

Su Qingwu asked herself, when she was ten years old, she could not do it like the little girl, at that time, she was very playful.

After entering this place, she waited for a while, and the little girl took the time to run towards her quickly.

"Sister, what spiritual plants do you want to buy?"

Su Qingwu bent down slightly and said with a smile, "I have some spiritual plants for sale, not for purchase."

"Then please take out the spiritual plant so I can identify it."

Su Qingwu took off a storage bag hanging on her waist, handed it over, and then explained:

"It's all in there, and there's a lot of it, so it's not very convenient to just take it out."

The little girl has already started practicing and can use her spiritual sense to check the situation in the bag.

She took a quick look and then bowed to Su Qingwu.

"Please wait, this will take some time."

On the other side, the female cultivator who was counting with an abacus heard this, paused what she was doing, stood up and walked to the side of the little girl.

After taking the storage bag and checking it, he immediately invited Su Qingwu to an elegant room.

"The spiritual plants you are selling are fifteen in total. According to the unspoken rule of Gu Luo City, the market price of spiritual plants is half a percent lower than the price of selling them to the outside world. Can you accept this?"

"Can."

This is perfectly normal. If the two prices were exactly the same, there would be no profit in this regard, and no industry would do this.

In the end, the batch of spiritual plants that Su Qingwu took out was sold for a total of 30,000 spiritual stones.

After the transaction was completed, she left Hundred Plants Church soon.

Walking on the street again, I came to the free trade area of ​​the city, and I could hear shouting from time to time.

"Fresh Xuanming crabs and water trout shrimps, just caught not long ago, ten spirit stones can buy a big bag, don't miss it if you pass by!"

"The green dates, frost persimmons, and red pears that I picked this morning are available by the basket. One basket only costs three spirit stones. First come first served!"

"Do you want a first-level monster skin? Selling at a super low price!"

......

In the space, the spirit fish had not yet fully grown, so Su Qingwu bought some aquatic creatures to make spirit meals. In addition, he also bought some fresh monster meat.

After returning to the rented courtyard, they quickly cleaned the meat of aquatic creatures and monsters, cut them into small pieces, then took out the grill, skewered them one by one with the prepared bamboo sticks, and sprinkled seasonings on them while grilling.

As time goes by, the rich fragrance gradually dissipates...

......

Two incense sticks later, Su Qingwu finished his meal and returned to the Yuqing Mirror space.

After a night of practice, the next morning, he continued to go to the city to purchase spiritual plants...

......

From morning till night, seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Except for the grains used to feed the spiritual pets, the remaining spiritual plants that were not used were sold by Su Qingwu, who obtained 220,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

Including what he already had, he now had a total of 810,000 spirit stones.

One day, after Su Qingwu returned to the space, he found that the seven-legged insect in the cocoon had moved.

The white cobweb has a crack starting from the head.

Then there was a series of slight cracking sounds, and the cracks became larger and larger, and began to spread in all directions.

After about fifty-five breaths, the outer layer of the white silk was covered with dense cracks, and a large amount of fragments fell downwards.

From the gap left, a pair of colorful wings slowly stretched out and slowly opened.

Now has come the most critical moment of breaking the cocoon. If you can completely break free from the cocoon and fly out smoothly, it will be considered a success, otherwise it will be declared a failure.

Su Qingwu watched from the side without blinking, and through the contract, he sensed that the condition of the seven-legged insect was not very good.

In other words, the probability of failure is greater...

The seven-legged insect struggled for a long time but was unable to escape from the white cocoon. The speed at which its colorful wings flapped slowed down visibly.

Seeing this, Su Qingwu began to try to contact them through contracts and continued to encourage them.

Over time, this move has had its effect.

The wings that were about to stop flapped again, and the seven-legged insect used up the last bit of its strength and made a final effort to completely break free from the white cocoon.

A colorful butterfly the size of a palm suddenly flew up, came to Su Qingwu's side, and circled around her...
