Couple cultivating immortality: My Taoist partner and I grew up through planting

The nine people set up their formations on the big rock separately. Han Xin and Shi Yan shared one formation, Qin Yueming and Fan Qingqing one, Song Yue and Ding Chunhong one, and the remaining three male cultivators shared one.

"Everyone, please be careful at night." Shi Yan said to everyone.

This forest was so strange. Apart from the dozen or so ferocious beasts they encountered during the day, they didn't encounter any other ferocious beasts. They didn't even encounter a bug. This was too abnormal.

Besides, this place is too empty and lonely, which always makes him feel bad.

As expected, nothing happened in the first half of the night, but in the second half, rustling sounds were heard from all around outside the formation.

Everyone opened their eyes from meditation and looked outside the formation.

Dense swarms of insects were crawling out from the ground, and everyone was shocked by the scene they saw.

How could this be a bug? They had never seen a bug as big as a ten-year-old child. This was too scary.

Because of the formation, the insects did not notice the nine people, but crawled in their predetermined direction.

"Should we go see where these bugs are going?" Mason asked.

I don’t know if there is something attracting them in that direction.

"If you want to go, I don't dare to go."

Fan Qingqing has always been used to having smooth sailing and is rather timid.

The only disaster in her life was that she was drugged and lost her reputation.

Mason didn't care about Fan Qingqing's attitude just now. He could understand how afraid the female cultivator was of those insects. In addition, Qin Yueming's attitude when he apologized was sincere, so he cared even less.

Didn't he want to go and take a look? But he didn't dare to act on his own without the master's order.

"We are not familiar with the situation here. As long as they don't come to provoke us, we'd better not act rashly."

Shi Yan received the fiery gazes from his subordinates, but remained indifferent. He didn't know whether those insects would attack human cultivators, and Shi Yan would not take risks with his subordinates.

Even though the strength conveyed by those insects is not that great, as the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant", the insects still pose some threat to them.

The main thing is that we don’t know whether these insects are poisonous or not. If the poison is hard to detoxify, you’ll be dead if you get bitten.

The ninth-grade detoxification pill refined by Han Xin is not omnipotent.

Mason was disappointed that he couldn't go over to see what was going on. In his opinion, there must be something good that could attract so many bugs.

Merlin saw that he showed a disappointed expression in front of his master, and was worried that his master would be dissatisfied with Mason. He glared at him and said in a voice transmission: "What's that expression on your face? Don't make such an expression in front of your master."

Ever since they recognized their master, the master has always been kind to them. He has not assigned them any tasks, nor required them to do anything. He also gave them resources for cultivation. With such a good master, they cannot become arrogant because of his favor.

And even though the master and his wife usually treat everyone well and seem very peaceful, are they really as they appear to be?
Merlin doesn't think so. It's just that they haven't touched the bottom line of their two masters. All they have to do now is to obey.

Mason was not the type to ignore advice, and he immediately adjusted his attitude. He was not dissatisfied with his master, he was just disappointed because he did not achieve his goal. From beginning to end, he did not have any negative emotions because of his master's rejection.

Everyone thought that the night would pass like this, but not long after, they noticed a slight tremor in the boulder under their feet, and their spiritual senses quickly probed into the interior of the boulder.

Then everyone took a deep breath at the same time, and their bodies left the stone and floated in the air.

Black bugs were hiding in the stones, but how could there be bugs in the stones?

Upon closer inspection, they found that there were no bugs in the stones, but that the black bugs had drilled into the stones and were gnawing at them, and were actually gnawing towards where they were standing.

Could it be that the stones couldn't block their aura? Or were these black bugs special and able to ignore the obstruction of the stones?

Han Xin quickly threw a Vajra Talisman onto the stone. She didn't know if the Vajra Talisman could stop the black bugs from coming out, but it was better than doing nothing. At least it could stop them for a while.

The people in the other formations did the same thing as her, except that the defensive talismans they threw out were different.

After throwing out the talismans for defense, the people in different formations looked at each other.

After those bugs appeared outside the formation, everyone removed the formation that blocked the line of sight in each formation, so now their communication would not be affected.

After a while, Fan Qingqing asked in a trembling voice: "Big Brother, those bugs shouldn't be able to get through the defense, right?"

In fact, Fan Qingqing was not that afraid of insects, but that was when there were not many of them. Now this densely packed scene aroused fear in her heart. There was no way, she had trypophobia, especially for those soft, crawling insects.

Qin Yueming patted her back and comforted her, "It's okay, they are just a few bugs, they don't have much power, we can get rid of them in a few strokes."

Fan Qingqing's body trembled, and she asked, "Can they really break through the defense?"

"I don't know about that either, but don't worry, Junior Sister. With Senior Brother by your side, you don't have to be afraid of any danger."

I brought up my junior sister by myself. She is a little pampered and timid, but when the crisis comes, she will not be so scared that she runs away.

As expected, these black bugs can't stop anything. The defensive talismans are just a little harder to chew, but they will eventually be chewed off.

After applying two more defensive talismans, Han Xin and the others didn't want to be passive anymore. Don't talismans require spirit stones?
So everyone stopped using defensive talismans and waited for the black bugs to emerge from the ground, and then they would slap them to death.

Once there is a hole, there will be a steady stream of insects crawling out of the hole. At first, they are the black insects that will chew on stones. Later, perhaps smelling their scent, other insects also crawled out of the holes and into the formation. More and more insect corpses occupied the position of the formation.

Just when they were about to get rid of the insect corpses that were occupying the formation's memory, something happened that made them want to vomit.

Those insects that crawled out later and that they had not had time to kill actually started eating the corpses. This was not the most disgusting thing for them. What they could not stand the most was the harsh chewing sounds of those insects when they ate their meals.

They seemed to be having a carnival and were particularly happy.
