"What does Zhulong need to refine runestones?" After feeding all the insect eggs, Jiang Lin looked at the insect trough and walked out of the insect room. "Generally, a carrier is needed, and spiritual stones are the best. However, it is also the same to use other materials containing spiritual energy as carriers, such as the trunks of trees that have been around for more than a hundred years. Then you put the essence and blood of monsters, and other materials Just refining it into the selected carrier and constructing a complete rune inside it." "Is it difficult to refine it?" "Isn't it very difficult to fuse the materials with the weapon refiner. The fusion materials are almost the same. It's just that it's a little difficult to carve the runes in the end, but it's not difficult for you after all, you have the forbidden thread now. You just need to make sure that the hard rune stones you refine are not too hard, so that the golden beetle can do it. Just be able to bite it." "Isn't the stiff rune too hard? This needs to be thought about carefully." Jiang Lin frowned and walked towards the entrance of the cave. The entrance to the cave that had been merged with the mountain was not opened. The power of the earth shook Jiang Lin's body, and he penetrated directly from the stone wall at the entrance of the cave. The cold wind outside made Jiang Lin couldn't help but shiver. He took out a bear demon's fur from his storage bag and refined it with elixir fire. A cloak appeared in Jiang Lin's hands, and he made it in an instant. A bearskin hat. Wrapping himself in bear skin, Jiang Lin let go of his consciousness and walked toward the distance through the snow on the mountain. At this time, the mountains were already covered in silver, and there were still few goose-feather-like universities in the sky. The whole sky was gray, and the earth seemed to have fallen into silence. There were no traces of monster activity around, and it was obvious that the monsters were hiding in such a cold weather. With the jade pendant, Jiang Lin can easily find elixirs and spiritual trees no matter how thickly they are covered up by the university. As for the higher-end rare treasures, they are still guarded by monsters even in the cold winter months, so Jiang Lin no longer has to aimlessly search for monsters. As long as he can find rare treasures, he can almost find monsters. Having been wandering in the mountains for three days, Jiang Lin, who was addicted to collecting rare treasures, would have wanted to collect more rare treasures in the mountains if Zhulong hadn't reminded him to inject spiritual power into the insect eggs again. After returning to the cave, Jiang Lin injected spiritual power into the insect tank again. However, Jiang Lin did not immediately refine the runes after injecting spiritual power, because Jiang Lin did not know what the teeth of the golden beetle looked like and could not grasp the hardness of the runes. Jiang Lin opened up another space in the cave, and the power of the earth poured into the ground, turning the hard stone walls into loose earth, and it contained rich power of the earth. Another channel of spiritual energy from the spiritual spring was drawn into the flattened land. Jiang Lin took out a lot of rare treasures from his storage bag and planted them on it. Zhulong told Jiang Lin that the spiritual power transformed from Jiang Lin¡¯s ancestral magic can not only speed up the hatching of spiritual insects, but also speed up the growth of elixirs. So this time Jiang Lin dug up a lot of elixirs that were not yet mature, and at the same time planted a lot of seeds of the elixirs in the soil. The entire cave was wrapped in restrictions by Jiang Lin. Although the cold was raging outside, the cave was as warm as spring. After pouring some spring water into the land, Jiang Lin injected spiritual power into the land. Seeing that the elixir, which had become a little sluggish after leaving the place where it grew up, immediately became energetic and grew more vigorously, Jiang Lin had a smile on his face. After planting the elixir, Jiang Lin went to the insect room to take another look, then returned to sit on the stone bed he had just made when leveling the land. Jiang Lin even built a stone table and several stone benches in the center of the cave, which made the cave look much more comfortable. The vigorously growing elixir exudes a fragrant aura, making the air in the entire cave clearer. The sight of the lush greenery makes people feel very happy. It's just that it's a little dark in the cave, but it doesn't affect Jiang Lin's vision, so it's not a hindrance. Jiang Lin sat cross-legged on the stone bed, and the forbidden threads in his eyes lit up. Jiang Lin began to use this forbidden thread as the basis, but then he understood the other restrictions in the formation runes. Slowly, the light that consumed the runes began to float in front of Jiang Lin. The rune of loss is also one of the basic runes of sealing. Its function is to consume the power of the sealed person to attack the seal. At the same time, it continuously consumes the sealed person's own power, making the sealed person weaker and weaker. , making the seal more stable. Because he has a forbidden thread of his own, Jiang Lin doesn't have to devote all his energy to outlining the consumption runes and then combine them like he did the first time. The forbidden threads in Jiang Lin's eyes flickered, and countless consumption runes appeared around Jiang Lin, as well as countless hard runes. What Jiang Lin has to do now is to combine consumption runes and hardThe runes merge with each other, and the new runes obtained after the fusion are used to build strong runes. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but Jiang Lin, who has a good opening and has gathered his own forbidden threads, has successfully pushed the door of the forbidden runes, and the only thing left is to make strides forward. Therefore, consuming runes and hard runes did not cause Jiang Lin much difficulty. The forbidden threads in Jiang Lin's eyes kept flashing, as Jiang Lin continued to combine different runes with each other, and deduced the endless evolution of these different rune combinations. The restricted threads in Jiang Lin's eyes became clearer and clearer, and his aura became stronger and stronger. A month passed in a blink of an eye. Apart from injecting spiritual power into the insect tank and elixir every few days, Jiang Lin sat cross-legged on the stone bed and continued to deduce his own runes. Because the deduction required a large amount of spiritual energy and soul power, Jiang Lin's cultivation progressed slowly. However, Jiang Lin didn't care about this. Instead, he continued to refine the essence from the tombstones to replenish his body's consumption, and continued to feed the dark parts of the essence to the evil spirits. The remaining parts that he could use were all used to deduce the runes. Gradually, Jiang Lin's first forbidden thread was about to be completed. The next day, the forbidden thread showed signs of condensation. "Would it be a problem for the ghost beetles to eat these things?" Standing in front of the insect trough, looking at the dense crowd of people scrambling to get rid of a palm-sized rune stone, the ghost beetles chewed up every last bit of it in the insect trough, still unsatisfied. Jiang Lin asked worriedly as he crawled around. The ghost beetles were all hatched in less than five days under the injection of spiritual power transformed from Jiang Lin's family inheritance. However, Jiang Lin was immersed in the deduction of runes at that time, so he ignored them and just threw some stems and leaves of spiritual grass in to feed them. But when Jiang Lin felt that the first forbidden thread had been completed and the second forbidden thread was about to condense. Jiang Lin stopped the deduction and started refining rune stones according to Zhulong's reminder. Because the golden beetles that took ten years to hatch hatched in less than two months, Jiang Lin had to prepare them. The food was gone. However, Jiang Lin has mastered a lot of runes in more than a month, so when refining the runes, he is not only refining the runes that the golden beetles can eat. He also used the blood demon's essence that emerged from the Shennong Monument to refine some of the dark aura inside to refine ghostly runes for the ghost beetles to eat. The ghost beetle is a black bug as big as a fingernail. It is shrouded in a ghostly aura and has two ghost horns like tentacles. Its six legs and pliers-like teeth are all zigzag-shaped, making it look a bit ferocious. The body is a bit illusory, as if it is half solid, half illusory, and looks a bit weird. "What's the problem? The ghost beetle was originally a food ration for ghosts. The stronger the dark aura on it, the more beneficial it is to the ghosts. Don't worry, there will be no problem. It only takes three months to feed this rune stone. , these ghost beetles will be adults. Select the strongest males and females and let them lay eggs, and the others can be fed to the evil ghosts. " "Ice runes are advanced runes, now. I don't have the ability to deduce it yet, otherwise if I get ice runes to feed these snow silkworms, they will probably grow faster, right?" Jiang Lin said with some pity. Although the spiritual power transformed by family magic is used to cultivate a whole piece of very fast treasure to feed these spiritual insects. The growth rate of spiritual insects is much faster than that of ordinary rare treasures. After all, these rare treasures contain the aura of transforming spiritual power from the Jiang Lin family's magic. But compared to ghost beetles and golden beetles that can eat rune stones, the growth rate of snow silkworms is still too slow. The runes in the suppression runes are not just about suppressing the enemy directly. They include ice prison, fire domain, meteorite, and other runes that can not only imprison but also attack. The combination of seals and endless attacks is called suppression. However, those runes are too advanced and cannot be deduced by Jiang Lin now. "You can't rush these things, just take your time. By the way, when choosing male and female worms to mate, inject them with an appropriate amount of blood ginseng essence, so that the blood demon's essence without negative aura can be injected into them. Inject some into them and see if there is any effect? ??""What effect?" Jiang Lin asked curiously. The longer Jiang Lin spent with Zhulong, the more he felt that Zhulong was not simple. Especially when the suppressed Blood Demon was being eaten away by Jiang Lin bit by bit, Zhulong, who had been sealed in the Shennong Monument for who knows how many years, was still alive and well. This made Jiang Lin even more curious about the power of Zhulong. stand up. However, although Jiang Lin was curious, he did not ask why Zhulong was sealed. After all, the Shennong Monument was an inheritance from the Jiang family's era, and Zhulong was sealed in the Shennong Monument. Then there should be any grudges between him and the Jiang family, but those grudges should be from a long, long time ago. Now Jiang Lin and Zhulong get along well, so they didn't ask, and Zhulong didn't tell them either. The two maintained a tacit understanding on this matter.
