The thoughts of those two didn’t stop Su Mo’s actions next. He used the Qi energy to make a layer of protection around him and the girls. Although this level of attack was harmless to him, he still didn’t want to get spit on by others.
He clicked open the system store and spent 500 points. He brought the lowest level of storage ring with a storage space of 27 cubic ters. Then, 5 more points were spent on purchasing a few tal containers.
"Just wait for here. I’ll be right back."
Not waiting for them to respond, Su Mo had already flown away on his sword. Yang Qingxi and Zhang Xulin were left looking at each other.
"Miss, is it all right to let Su Mo take back such dangerous monsters to the villa?" Zhang Xulin asked with a nervous expression.
Before, when she heard their conversation, she was confused. Only after witnessing the force behind the water bursts just now did she understand how terrible those fish were. What made her especially strange was that Su Mo wanted them as pets! She was confident that she wouldn’t survive even a single attack from them.
"Don’t worry, it would be fine." Yang Qingxi shook her head with a sigh. "He should have sothing to ta them."
Zhang Xulin nodded, a little doubtful, but she didn’t question. Because, with Su Mo’s strength, having so strange ans is not strange at all.

While hovering over the river, Su Mo used the insight of his [Devil’s Eyes] to look for the best archerfish.
As he expected, they all looked very handso and full of strength.
"This one looks very ferocious... Hmm, energetic."
"This one’s fin is scarred..."
After a couple of minutes of observation, Su Mo chose the best six among all of them. Of course, in the anti, the archerfish never stopped attacking him. It’s just with the energy barrier in place, none of the attacks reach even close to Su Mo.
He used pure Qi Energy as telekinesis to lift those six chosen archerfish. By releasing a little spiritual shock, Su Mo made them faint and put them in the tal container before putting them inside the storage ring.
Then he flew back to the girls to pick them up, before further going deep inside the tomb. As for taming the archerfish, he was going to do it after returning to the villa.

The next part of the tomb was a maze. However, it wasn’t a problem for them as Su Mo’s sensing range was enough to cover the entire maze, and it took little effort to find the correct route.
There were so blood-sucking bats and so ter-sized crimson scorpions to harass them on their way. Taking his previous approach, Su Mo didn’t kill any of them and just avoided them.
When they were just about to reach the end of the maze, they found a golden rhino beetle about half a ter in size, blocking their way.
Su Mo was just about to scare it away when he rembered his other special technique that hadn’t been put to use since he got it. After a few seconds of contemplation, Su Mo made the golden rhino beetle faint using spiritual shock and put it inside the storage ring.
Upon seeing his actions, Zhang Xulin and Yang Qingxi looked at him with curiosity.
"Su Mo, are you planning to take this beetle as a pet too?" Zhang Xulin asked. She wasn’t averse to taking the golden rhino beetle as much as she was to the archerfish.
Su Mo nodded and explained. "One of the techniques I know is related to cultivating insects. So, I plan to try cultivating this beetle."
He didn’t bother to hide from them. Because, in the future, he might need them to find so materials when cultivating insects. This kind of thing can’t be hidden at all. It’s better to explain in advance at this ti.
"Oh?" Zhang Xulin exclaid in surprise. She seed to think of sothing, then suggested. "Then why don’t you take those crimson scorpions from before, as well?"
Right after she said those words. Zhang Xulin noticed both Su Mo and Yang Qingxi looking at her with strange eyes.
"Wh-what’s wrong?" Zhang Xulin stuttered nervously. "Did I say sothing wrong? Although they look scary, they are also powerful."
Well, the powerful, she said, was from her perspective. Because in front of Su Mo’s strength, this level of strength doesn’t make any difference.
Yang Qingxi noticed Su Mo hesitating to speak. She rolled her eyes and explained under Zhang Xulin’s confused expression.
"Sister Xulin, Scorpions are not insects?"
"Huh...?"
"They are arachnids."
Zhang Xulin looked at her with her eyes wide. Then turned to face Su Mo with a blank look.
"Don’t tell your technique about cultivating insects is so particular?"
Su Mo just shrugged and didn’t speak. The answer was obvious; it was indeed very particular about it.
To be honest, he was also helpless about it. Before, the range was only narrowed to insects for cultivating and now, after such requirents, the scope is narrowed even further.
That’s why he didn’t plan to spend much ti on this technique before, only after seeing the golden rhino beetle. He wanted to try cultivating it.

After passing the maze, they ca to a large area with a dozen-ter-long stone tower in the middle. However, what attracted their attention was a huge python with its body wrapped around the tower.
The huge python, eyes fixed aggressively on the intruders, was on the verge of attacking. However, Su Mo made the move first and didn’t give it a chance.
He launched a spiritual attack and knocked it unconscious.
After solving the huge python, Su Mo was just about to speak when he heard Yang Qingxi beside him sighing.
"I thought this python could bring so fighting experience for and Sister Xulin."
"You should have said it before."
Su Mo shrugged, expressing that it wasn’t his fault.
"I was about to. You just moved too fast." Yang Qingxi complained while rolling her eyes. "Forget it. We should be just about to reach the end of the tomb. For the next fight, leave it for and Sister Xulin to practice."
"That’s fine." Su Mo nodded without objection.
