Chapter 442: Chapter 434: Exterminating Fleas, Mysterious Swarm of Bees_1

Theoretically, the lower the grade of the insects, the weaker their spiritual power.

The smaller they are, the weaker the spiritual power.

The individual mosquitoes are small, low-grade, which inevitably means their spiritual power is very weak. Their advantages are mainly their flexible flight and numerous quantity.

In contrast, Qin Niu’s termites, since the Ant Queen is currently Grade Six, give birth to offspring that are Grade Three from birth.

After Qin Niu’s cultivation, they could reach Grade Four or even Grade Five.

Compared to these mosquitoes, that is considerably powerful.

So, when the mosquitoes were hit by a mental attack, their slight consciousness was almost instantly shattered. It was as if their souls had been directly destroyed.

All that was left was their bodies.

Their painful struggling on the ground was merely a bodily instinct, and soon they stopped moving altogether, completely dead.

Wu Shanle watched as his foundations were rapidly destroyed by Qin Niu. His face twitched uncontrollably, flames of anger shot from his eyes, and his heart bled.

“Damn it, just who is this kid?”

Wu Shanle’s gaze was cold and murderous.

“He Shan, old fool, you’ve got good fortune to have taken on such a formidable disciple. But… if this is all he’s got, then he should be on his way to meet King Yama!”

As he spoke, several tiny fleas suddenly leaped out from under Qin Niu’s feet.

They were so small that they were half the size of a sesame seed, making it very hard for the naked eye to capture their presence. Moreover, their jumping ability was extremely terrifying; they could easily leap onto Qin Niu’s head or neck.

Don’t be fooled by their size; their grade is not low.

Fourth had already taken control of one, and Qin Niu opened his palm, letting it stay in the center.

You could see complex patterns etched along the flea’s body, forming a special rune. The color of their carapace was dark, not ink-black, but a dark grey.

Glowing with a metallic luster.

This also meant that they had evolved advanced carapaces.

Qin Niu pinched it between two fingers and tried to crush it with force, only to find that the flea didn’t get crushed.

It was hard to imagine, as Qin Niu was in the Dual Innate Realm, even though the cultivation technique he practiced was not suited for combat, it wasn’t weak. Not to mention a flea, he could easily crush a stone.

“Master, please bestow it upon me!”

The Black Spider Gu seemed particularly interested in this flea.

“No problem, eat it to your heart’s content.”

Qin Niu found that these fleas were quite formidable; ordinary termites had to swarm together in large numbers to control just one. Only Fourth had the strength to control one by itself.

That Gold Devouring Ant hadn’t been fed Bodhi Tree Blood temporarily, so it hadn’t evolved the ability for mental control.

Essentially, Gold Devouring Ants should belong to the Worker Ant category.

Despite the ant colony appearing to have a variety of ant species, there were strictly only three categories: Worker Ants, Soldier Ants, and Breeder Ants.

Worker Ants had the most outstanding growth potential.

Although the growth potential of Breeder Ants is also very outstanding, even surpassing that of Worker Ants, they inherently lack combat capability. Their main role is to breed offspring.

So, the ones with the most growth potential are actually the Worker Ants.

Given the same level, a Worker Ant and a Soldier Ant, with the equal cultivation efforts, the Worker Ant will undoubtedly become stronger.

At least this is the conclusion Qin Niu reached based on his experience in cultivating termites.

There were several excellent breeds among the Worker Ants, like War Demon Ant, Demon Ant, and Gold Devouring Ant. Relatively speaking, although many special ant species also emerged among Soldier Ants, they simply couldn’t compare to War Demon Ant and Demon Ant.

Qin Niu had been on high alert for Elder Wu Shanle to resort to dirty tricks, but now that he found the opponent had surreptitiously released tiny fleas to sneak attack, he breathed a sigh of relief.

There were a total of six fleas, all caught in the termites’ net.

The Black Spider Gu loved to collect various strange poisons for evolution.

These six fleas were probably around Grade Six, and Qin Niu was not sure about the quality of their venom, but it must not be poor.

Otherwise, Wu Shanle wouldn’t have put his hopes on them to assassinate him with a sneak attack.

“If all six fleas are of the same grade and their strength is similar, could there also be a King Flea?”

After checking the six fleas, Qin Niu once again started to be on guard.
