Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Chapter 113 A first test of the power of ghost ants

"Little bees, come here!"

Qin Niu gave them orders again.

After a while, a small pink bee slowly crawled out of the hive.Its wings have not yet fully fledged, there are still some wrinkles, and they are slightly wet.

Its wings kept trembling.

"It seems we have to wait a while."

He finally understood why a few worker bees that had broken pupae did not come over after giving the order.

They have just emerged from pupae, and their bodies have not yet completely hardened. Not to mention flying, even crawling is a little difficult.

"Okay, let's go in first! I'll see you later!"

Qin Niu took Lao Si directly into the area of ​​the ancient banyan tree.

In addition to the fourth child, he also brought two other termites, namely the third-level tiger-striped iron-clad ghost ant, and a newly cultivated second-level green-scaled giant ant.

He wanted to see if these two termites could lead him out of the maze of the ancient banyan tree.

Not to mention sitting under the ancient banyan tree while practicing and drinking banyan tree blood.

There is no way, his sword only loves the blood of banyan trees.

It has to be fed with a lot of banyan tree blood every day.

As he practices hard, his cultivation level is also constantly improving.

Unknowingly, he has reached the fifth level of mortal cultivation, and at the current rate of improvement, there is no bottleneck at all.

He also studied the King of Medicine Sutra, which contains one realm and one hurdle, when he had free time in the past two days.

It's just that due to my limited level, I can't see where the problem is at all.

"Although I can't bite off more than I can chew, I'll give it a try with practice."

Qin Niu subconsciously took out the Medicine King Sutra from his arms, and then practiced according to the above cultivation methods.

After practicing this technique, you will have a special ability to sense the amount of energy and medicinal properties in the medicinal herbs.This is a very useful ability.

Walking in the mountains, with this special ability, he can easily discover those potentially valuable herbs.

The first time I practiced the Medicine King Sutra, it didn’t go well.

Many attempts failed.

He decided to go home and ask Xiaoqing for advice before practicing next time.

……

He practiced until dusk in the afternoon, so he ended his practice early and rushed outside with the banyan tree blood he had obtained.

Trying to let the second-level green-scale giant worker ant lead the way, it stops and goes and can't get out at all.

I also tried to let the level [-] tiger-striped armored ghost ant lead the way. The situation was slightly better, but I was still lost in the maze of this ancient banyan tree.

Even though Qin Niu now has the fifth level of mortal cultivation, he still feels as small as a grain of corn when facing this ancient banyan tree.It is always so unfathomable.

After taking the banyan tree blood from it so many times, it didn't seem to cause any real harm to it.

Its leaves are always green and lush.

In the end, Lao Si led him to successfully break out of the maze of ancient banyan trees.

Lao Si himself is already a third-level termite. After drinking the blood of the 'Thousand-Eyed Tree', his evolution seems to be somewhat different from other termites.

Other termites will have their heads enlarged and their two tentacles twisted together like twists to form one branch.

The fourth child didn't know if it was because one of his tentacles was broken, or if it was because he was special.

The bases of its two tentacles are enlarged and thickened, equivalent to the appearance of two bases.

The tentacles became slightly thicker, but there were no other changes.

And its head has also grown a little bit bigger.

After Qin Niu broke out, he looked up at the sky.

You can still see a little shadow of the sun, which has not completely sunk into the bottom of the mountain.

Deliberately set aside some time to nurture those few bees that successfully emerge from pupae.

These days, he keeps an eye on the hive, worried about wasps coming.

In fact, it is impossible to prevent it in the wild.

Yesterday he spotted a bumblebee flying overhead like a bomber.

It may not have discovered the hive in the pine tree.

No signs of enemy invasion have been found in the hive yet.

"Ok?"

Qin Niu was about to call out the queen ant together with several worker ants that fed her and soldiers that protected her.

As a result, a jumping spider was found lying not far from the ant nest.

Its size is about the thickness of an adult's little finger.

The eight legs are long and thin, and the fangs are terrifying to look at.

Judging from its strong and long body, it must be extremely agile.

I don’t know if it discovered this termite nest, or if it happened to pass by and take a rest under the pine tree.

Termites have many natural enemies.

For example, the hot-tempered red ants will immediately lead troops to attack a termite nest once they discover it.

There are also carabid beetles, various omnivorous bugs, frogs, etc., which are all natural enemies of termites.

Precisely because there are so many natural enemies, termites usually seal their nests.

Either they hide inside big trees and eat trees, or they hide deep underground and eat various tree roots and grass roots.

When they are short of food, they will also eat their own kind.

Including ant eggs.

Qin Niu couldn't help but show a hint of joy when he saw the jumping spider, taking the opportunity to test the combat power of the special termite.

Two tiger-striped ghost ants were called out by him.

"Kill that jumping spider!"

Qin Niu gave them orders.

Perhaps the blood level of jumping spiders is higher than theirs. Their tentacles detected the smell of jumping spiders, and they were obviously a little uneasy.

Just like cats and mice, they naturally form bloodline level suppression.

Under normal circumstances, termites are just food for jumping spiders.In terms of its ability to kill ants or termites, jumping spiders can only be considered average.There is a close relative of the scorpion called the sunset spider, and that one is really strong.

One ant can destroy a whole nest of ants.

Its fighting power is insane.

Under Qin Niu's order, the two tiger-striped ghost ants pointed the tips of their tentacles at the jumping spider not far away.

The jumping spider was equally excited after spotting its prey.

Like a cat, it is quietly approaching two termites.

Qin Niu stared unblinkingly.

If these two tiger-striped ghost ants cannot be defeated or even killed, the loss will still be within his tolerance.

Suddenly, the jumping spider flew towards one of the tiger-striped ghost ants, as fast as lightning.

The tiger-striped ghost ant also knew how powerful its opponent was and went into a violent state.

It struggled to raise its forelimbs and head to fight the oncoming enemy.

Just when Qin Niu was expecting a big battle, he saw the jumping spider suddenly falling to the ground in pain, and then rolling around like it was drunk.

Two tiger-striped ghost ants took the opportunity to pounce and bite and tear.

Tear alive a jumping spider several times their size.This scene was extremely bloody, but Qin Niu knew in his heart that the killing between the two sides just now was full of inequality.

The jumping spider was probably attacked by mental waves, and it suddenly rolled around in pain. It was almost reduced to fish on the chopping board, and was slaughtered by two termites.

"The long-range attack ability is really abnormal! It actually allows them to easily have the ability to leapfrog and kill enemies."

While Qin Niu sighed, he also had some worries.

Mental wave attacks are not always effective and may fail when encountering a powerful opponent.

The biggest advantage of termites is definitely not fighting alone, but fighting in groups.

The most terrifying ability of the Queen Ant is the explosion of troops.

The average termite queen can lay [-] million eggs in her lifetime.

Although the one raised by Qin Niu is naturally weak, it can become stronger and stronger through artificial cultivation.

Its ability to explode troops should also become more and more terrifying.

Theoretically speaking, cultivating these worker ants and soldier ants now is to accumulate experience for cultivating queen ants in the future.

Because there is only one queen ant, she is the core existence of the entire ant colony.

It's simply impossible to experiment with it in the first place.

The current ant colony can be reproduced by all other ant species except Lao Si.

The body of this jumping spider cannot be wasted.

Qin Niu released Laosi, called out the worker ants in the temporary nest, let them eat and then fed the queen.

It currently has a 2% chance of producing offspring with powerful attributes, and a 5% chance of producing offspring with venom attributes. Although it was fed a lot of bear meat and poisonous insects later, the queen's two abilities seemed to be at their peak and she remained motionless.

Ultimately, Qin Niu still has too little knowledge and experience in cultivating termites.

Not many people keep termites as pets.

Because termites are too weak.

Raising it is far less cost-effective than raising a bumblebee, centipede, or spider.

Raising a poisonous insect can easily convert it into combat power and create benefits for the owner.

But what can you do by raising termites?

Gnawing trees?
Qin Niu's original idea of ​​raising them was simple, because he took a fancy to their ability to chew trees.

I want them to help clean up the weeds in the ground.

Because in his poor farmland, only weeds grew wildly, and crops barely grew.

He was almost bored to death from weeding every day.

Later, by mistake, he accidentally broke into the maze of ancient banyan trees and accidentally discovered the many uses of banyan tree blood.This made him prosper quickly, and his strength increased day by day.

The rise of every strong man has various adventures and opportunities.

This is the law of nature.

People who don't get adventure are destined to be mediocre.

Or with the support of a strong family, you can rise up and become a strong person.

For example, the noble young master Qin Niu met when he first went to the Supreme Sea to buy exercises. Even though he was only about ten years old, he already had super terrifying strength at such a young age because of his powerful family.

If I must say it, being born into a strong family and having good parents is also a kind of adventure or opportunity.

He looked up at the hive above his head.

"Little bee, come here!"

Qin Niu called them in bee language.

None of the old bees in the swarm paid any attention to him.

But the first batch of larvae born by the queen bee all flew over.

I counted them, and there were ten in total.

Each one is a tender new bee.

They were unable to fly for a long time. After circling Qin Niu's head for a few times, they all landed on his body to rest affectionately.

"I have to get some honey."

He climbed up a tree to get some honey, and then mixed it with a little freshly extracted banyan tree blood.Start experimenting with the first worker bee.

"Eat it!"

Because it was the first time to cultivate bees with banyan tree blood, he had no confidence at all.

Logically speaking, the blood of the ancient banyan tree is a universal treasure, and almost all creatures can evolve after eating it.

Even if he was willing to take the risk, he could try some himself.

But he didn't have this idea.

It's tempting to become stronger, but it would be terrible if you turned into a monster after eating it.

It would be safer to use banyan tree blood to cultivate pets.

The first worker bee had no idea that the owner had added ingredients to the honey it ate, so it ate it all with relish.
