Chapter 262: Stop! Don't fight anymore!
"This is a bug whistle, used for insect control," said Zhong Jingshan concisely.
The bug whistle resembled a suona, slender at the top and thicker at the bottom, with light runes inscribed on its dark green shell. Its sound was a curious blend of insect and bird, crisp and mysterious.
From the talisman handed to him by the black-robed youth, Lu Xuan learned that the bug whistle was a type of insect-controlling artifact, capable of simulating the chirping of various insects to help cultivators better control all sorts of strange bugs.
On the bug whistle Zhong Jingshan handed him, there lingered his spiritual aura, exerting a strong deterrent effect on the strange bugs he raised in Bug Valley.
"I leave this place to you," nodded the black-robed youth at Lu Xuan, tossing him a storage pouch. Then, with a flick of his robe, countless thin black lines on his robe emitted a sharp chirping sound, turning into a black light and disappearing into the sky.
"Junior Brother Lu, Junior Brother Zhong has always been taciturn. It's already good that he said this much to you."
"He has left Bug Valley; he'll probably go out for a trip in these two days. All the strange bugs here will be under your responsibility."
"This is my communication talisman. If you encounter any difficult problems, you can come find me."
After a few instructions from Ge Pu, a black and white Tai Chi pattern appeared out of thin air behind his head. His eyes flickered, and he instantly merged into the black and white light.
"Is he leaving just like that?"
The efficiency of the two men left Lu Xuan unable to adapt immediately. He paused for a moment before carefully observing the stone room and its surroundings.
The stone room was probably just Zhong Jingshan's residence in Bug Valley, furnished extremely simply with only a few tables and chairs, and a jade cushion, with nothing else.
The storage pouch contained a large amount of demon beast meat stored in various ways to ensure its freshness.
In addition, there were some strange flowers and fruits used to feed the various bugs in Bug Valley.
He entered a bug chamber.
The exterior of the bug chamber was arranged with formations to prevent the strange bugs inside from escaping.
From the outside, the bug chamber was pitch black, as if there were no signs of life at all.
However, Lu Xuan knew that it wasn't that simple inside. As his spiritual sense penetrated inside and carefully sensed, he finally detected a faint breathing sound like a thread of air in the corner of the bug chamber.
He cast an exorcism spell towards the roof. Under the pure white spiritual light, the giant mantis lurking in the darkness in the corner came into view.
A completely black giant mantis.
The mantis was half a zhang long, entirely pitch black, blending well into the dark environment.
Lu Xuan opened the formation, and amidst the dense darkness, a streak of flowing light flashed by, and the Black Blade Mantis rushed to a distance in an instant.
He activated the Floating Technique, closely following behind the Black Blade Mantis.
"It's the first time I've heard of walking a mantis, though I've heard of walking dogs and cats," he sighed inwardly, always paying attention to the movements of the nearby Black Blade Mantis, fearing that it might suddenly become aggressive and kill all the low-grade exotic insects in Bug Valley.
Half an hour later, he blew the bug whistle, and the Black Blade Mantis appeared in front of him in an instant, looked at Lu Xuan, and then went straight back into the bug chamber.
Although it was a fourth-grade demonic insect, it already had a master-servant contract with Zhong Jingshan, and its wildness had been tamed to some extent.
Moreover, with the bug whistle left by Zhong Jingshan in Lu Xuan's hand, he wasn't worried that the Black Blade Mantis would suddenly attack him.
Of course, even if such a situation arose, Lu Xuan didn't feel the slightest bit frightened. With his current strength, he could easily deal with this Black Blade Mantis.
Inside the bug chamber, Lu Xuan sensed that the anxious mood of the Black Blade Mantis had eased significantly, probably because its strong desire for slaughter had been released.
However, it still maintained its indifferent attitude towards Lu Xuan, except for when they first met, it glanced a few times, but otherwise completely ignored him.
Lu Xuan didn't mind this. He had seen this situation many times before, whether it was the flood dragons and serpents in Thousand Dragon Lake or the initial encounter with the spirit crane tribe; initially, they were less enthusiastic than this Black Blade Mantis, but in the end, they all obediently submitted to his robe.
He reactivated the formation in the bug chamber and then proceeded to the next chamber.
As soon as he entered, he saw over ten plate-sized pure white spiders battling each other in a frenzy.
Each of them wielded eight blade-like legs, causing a gust of whistling wind as they flew about.
"Stop!"
"Don't fight anymore!"
Lu Xuan exclaimed.
The dozen or so spiders in the bug chamber paid no attention to him and continued their frenzied battle.
Lu Xuan took out the bug whistle and infused his spiritual energy into one of the holes. Immediately, a buzzing chirping sound rang out.
Under the chirping sound with special commands triggered by him, the dozen or so White Jade Spiders finally stopped and crawled around on the ground, looking like they wanted to fight but were afraid that Lu Xuan would blow the bug whistle again to stop them.
