Chapter 192 Purple Gold Ore, Purple Gold Ant
After not looking back at cave abode for more than two years, Luo Mu knew something would definitely go wrong. However, what Luo Mu didn't expect was that when he returned to cave abode where he had temporarily left White Jade Ant, cave abode would look like this.
This is still cave abode! This is completely a bottomless abyss!
Looking at the bottomless hole in front of him, the corners of Luo Mu's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Except for the door of his own cave abode, there was only a deep pit inside cave abode. The shadow of the previous cave abode could not be seen at all.
"Did the hungry White Jade Ant swallow the entire cave abode?" Luo Mu came back to his senses and murmured.
Except for White Jade Ant, Luo Mu could never think of any possibility to make his cave abode look like this!
"Is this what it means to sit back and eat the mountain? It really emptied the entire mountain." cave abode glanced at the empty ****, then looked at the deep pit on the ground, Luo Mu's face was full of emotion.
"Huh?" When he glanced at the deep pit, Luo Mu found that there was a faint purple light flashing at the bottom of the deep pit. He let out a light murmur, and Luo Mu moved towards the bottom of the deep pit like a flying roc.
As soon as Luo Mu's body hit the ground, two purple rays of light came towards Luo Mu. With his brows raised, Luo Mu reached out and grabbed his hand, and Luo Mu grasped the two purple-gold rays of light firmly in his palm.
Release your palm, and two purple-gold ants are beating excitedly in the palm of Luo Mu's palm!
"How did you become such a virtuous person!!!" Luo Mu looked at the two purple-gold ants in his hand with a surprised look on his face. Through induction, Luo Mu was certain that the two purple-gold ants in his hand were indeed the two White Jade Ant he left in cave abode.
Seeing his master again, the two White Jade Ant, no, now I should say two Purple Gold Ant, seemed particularly excited. They kept beating and rolling on the palm of Luo Mu, looking extremely affectionate.
And now Luo Mu, how could he care about these two little guys? After moving his eyes away from them, Luo Mu looked at the bottom of the abyss.
Pieces of stones shining with a faint purple light came into Luo Mu's sight. Some of these purple-gold stones were embedded in the ground and in the cracks of ordinary stones, and some were completely exposed outside.
Around these purple-gold stones, purple-gold insect eggs are densely scattered all around. Except for a small number of insect eggs that are white, most of the remaining eggs are purple-gold in color.
"This... are these all insect eggs laid by White Jade Ant?" Luo Mu said with some uncertainty.
Luo Mu recognizes those white insect eggs, and is very familiar with them. There is no doubt that they are White Jade Ant's eggs. As for the purple-gold insect eggs, apart from being different in color, The size and shape are exactly the same as White Jade Ant's eggs, which makes Luo Mu think that these purple-gold eggs were probably laid by White Jade Ant.
Seeing the mutated appearance of White Jade Ant, the purple-gold body was exactly the same color as the insect eggs. White Jade Ant was not the one who gave birth to it, and Luo Mu couldn't think of any other possibility.
Before the seclusion, Luo Mu gave a death order to the two White Jade Ant, and they were only allowed to stay within cave abode and then lay eggs. Two years later, White Jade Ant did still stay in "cave abode". However, White Jade Ant had changed, and even the eggs it laid were completely different from the original ones.
"Is it because of these stones?" The other hand stretched out, and a suction force erupted from Luo Mu's palm. A sound broke through the air. A purple-gold stone the size of a fist was firmly grasped in the palm of Luo Mu's hand.
"This is..." Looking carefully at the purple-gold stone in his hand, Luo Mu frowned, his face was deep in thought, and his brain was spinning rapidly.
After a few breaths of time, Luo Mu relaxed his frown, and with joy between his brows, he said in surprise, "This is Purple Gold Ore! Is there a Purple Gold Mineral Vein here?"
Looking at the purple stones all over the ground, as well as the stones inlaid in the ground and the cracks in the stones, if you say that this place is not a Purple Gold Mineral Vein, even Luo Mu would not believe it to death.
"It seems that the mutation of White Jade Ant is probably inseparable from these Purple Gold Ore." At this time, Luo Mu would be really stupid if he still didn't understand the reason for the mutation of White Jade Ant.
White Jade Ant became what it is today precisely because it swallowed the Purple Gold Ore here.
When Luo Mu left two years ago, the monster meat left behind was only enough for White Jade Ant to eat for a few meals. Even if it was for laying eggs, it didn't require much activity, and the monster meat was only enough to take care of it for a few days.
As for Luo Mu, it took more than two years for White Jade Ant, who was hungry and had to lay eggs according to Luo Mu's requirements. Without food, White Jade Ant had no choice but to use everything in cave abode as food.
Except for the gate guarded by formation restrictions, the entire cave abode of Luo Mu was devoured cleanly by the two White Jade Ant. After everything inside the cave abode was devoured, the two White Jade Ant cast their hungry gazes underground.
It is precisely because of this that a bottomless pit appeared in Luo Mu and cave abode.
White Jade Ant eats everything, including earth and rocks. However, swallowing these earth and rocks that do not contain any spiritual energy will not make White Jade Ant grow at all, but it can relieve the hunger in his body.
White Jade Ant, this is how they survived. Otherwise, in two years, the two little guys would have starved to death long ago.
And when White Jade Ant used the soil and rocks in the ground as food, he happened to stumble upon Purple Gold Mineral Vein hidden under the mountain peak. Of course, White Jade Ant didn't know what Purple Gold Ore was, so in order to fill his stomach, he just ate it all.
As a result, White Jade Ant swallowed a large amount of Purple Gold Ore, and finally mutated, and its whole body turned purple and gold! Even the eggs produced later were purple and gold in color.
"What a waste of natural resources! What a waste of natural resources!" White Jade Ant didn't know how many purple gold pieces Luo Mu had swallowed, and sighed loudly with a look of pity on his face.
But then I thought about it, White Jade Ant, which had already entered the mature stage, could not be upgraded in level, but because of this change, it successfully broke through to the fourth level.
After weighing the gains and losses secretly in his heart, Luo Mu finally felt relieved. Changes in monster beasts are rare. Being able to successfully mutate and advance is a great joy for the owner of the monster beast.
Although Luo Mu values Purple Gold Ore, compared with White Jade Ant, Luo Mu is more inclined to the latter.
Moreover, after the mutation, White Jade Ant not only successfully advanced to the fourth level, but may also have some powerful abilities. In comparison, the feeling of pain in Luo Mu's heart has been reduced by most of it unconsciously.
"I wonder how this change will make you different!" Looking at the two little guys in his hands, Luo Mu looked curious and said to himself, "However, it is no longer appropriate to call you White Jade Ant. From now on, I will call you Purple Gold Ant!"
After renaming White Jade Ant to Purple Gold Ant, Luo Mu released the two little ones to the ground and let them move freely, and then turned his attention to the insect eggs and Purple Gold Ore in that place.
"Let's try Purple Gold Ant's ability in the future. The top priority now is to get rid of them first!"
After making up his mind, Luo Mu started taking action without delay at all.
First, Luo Mu collected all the insect eggs scattered on the ground, and then Divine Sense swept them one by one. Luo Mu put aside the live eggs that still showed signs of life.
As for the dead eggs that had completely lost their breath of life, Luo Mu sighed in a low voice, and then put them all into Storage Bag and stored them away. Maybe they would be put to use someday.
After distinguishing between dead eggs and live eggs, Luo Mu distinguished two colors of eggs. One was the normal color, and the other was the purple-gold egg laid after White Jade Ant mutated into Purple Gold Ant.
After distinguishing the two, Luo Mu began to count the numbers of the two.
After counting, the two White Jade Ants have laid an accurate number of live eggs for Luo Mu over the past two years. There are seventy-nine normal White Jade Ant eggs. The mutated eggs are twice as many as ordinary eggs, one hundred and ninety-six!
This number can be said to be quite huge!
Looking at the insect eggs in front of him that were divided into two parts and spread densely all over the ground, Luo Mu showed a proud smile on his face. With so many insect eggs there, why worry about everything happening!
After about a quarter of an hour, the excitement in Luo Mu's heart slowly weakened. At this time, Luo Mu put away the smile on his face, and then looked solemn.
Gently closing his eyes, Luo Mu tried his best to calm down his heart. After an unknown amount of time, Luo Mu, who had been standing there motionless, like an old monk in meditation, slowly opened his eyes, and a brilliant light burst out from his eyes.
Stretching out the index finger of his right hand, Luo Mu activated his spiritual power, and Essence Blood emerged from Luo Mu's fingertip. Looking at the bloody index finger, Luo Mu used his finger as a pen to draw quickly on the ground.
Seeing the trajectory of Luo Mu's index finger, coupled with the pattern slowly forming on the ground, it turned out to be Luo Mu's Blood Pact Formation that had not been used for a long time!
