Chapter 421: Chapter 413 Wounded Goodbye_1
“`
After he entered the mountain, he took a portion of the termites and put them into his insect bag.
For the past two months or so, apart from daily cultivation, he had never ceased the breeding of the termites.
In fact, by now, except for special ant breeds, there wasn’t much need for him, the master, to worry about.
He had already specially cultivated a batch of ‘Breeding Specialist Ants’.
As long as sufficient Ancient Banyan Tree Blood and ‘Thousand Eyes Tree Blood’ were provided, they could cultivate the young ants on their own.
The Ant Queen had now reached a Grade Six mother insect, and the offspring she produced were directly Grade Three larvae.
After being nurtured with Ancient Banyan Tree Blood, the larvae could at least advance another grade, reaching Grade Four. If it were a young ant of exceptional talent, a special breed, and consumes ‘Thousand Eyes Tree Blood’, it could completely advance two grades, becoming a Grade Five termite.
The ant colony could now increase by about a thousand each day.
There were a small number of termites that would perish during the cultivation process, which was inevitable.
Fortunately, as the Breeding Specialist Ants gained more and more experience, the number of perished termites decreased.
Qin Niu only left behind about a thousand termites to guard the Ant Nest, and put all the other termites into the insect bag.
Fourth was the worthy King Ant.
Even though the capabilities of the Gold Devouring Ant were also strong, it still couldn’t shake Fourth’s status as the King Ant.
As for the Demon Ants, ever since Fourth had rubbed them on the ground, no other Demon Ant dared to challenge its authority.
Moreover, Fourth was now a Grade Six War Demon Ant, its skills and talents already very powerful, not to mention termites, there were few other insects that could match it.
Given time, as long as Qin Niu was willing to continue nurturing it, helping it to advance to Grade Nine and above. At that time, not to say invincible, Fourth’s strength could at least climb another large step.
As for how powerful it would become, that’s hard to say.
Only actual combat would tell.
Based on his insect fighting experience, a Grade Seven insect could contend with human warriors in the Innate Realm. A Grade Eight insect could fight against human warriors in the Spirit Qi Realm, and at Level Nine, they were considered demi-demons, capable of barely holding their own against human Immortal Masters.
Elder Jiu Yin, relying on a Level Eight Taiyin Yaoyao king insect, had once directly tangled with Deputy Gang Leader Bai.
Just a single Taiyin Yaoyao king insect gave Deputy Gang Leader Bai a terrible headache.
Of course, ordinary Level Eight insects definitely weren’t that powerful, and it was only special insects like Taiyin Yaoyao that could be so formidable.
Qin Niu’s War Demon Ants were special insects, a rare breed between heaven and earth, so logically, if cultivated to Grade Eight, their strength would definitely not be weaker than the Taiyin Yaoyao king insect.
After collecting the termites, his gaze turned to the highest peak deep in the mountain range.
He called for the Fire Phoenix through the power of the soul contract.
Soon, a scarlet figure flew from the highest peak and came towards here. Under the sunlight, its feathers emitted a rainbow halo.
Before undergoing nirvana, the Fire Phoenix was merely a Huo Zhi.
Now, it was among the top-class rare birds between heaven and earth, as noble as dragons, a genuine Phoenix.
Although it was just a newly nirvanaed Fire Phoenix, still a ‘child’ among the Phoenixes, it was tremendously terrifying. Qin Niu wasn’t sure how powerful the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect was.
But with Fire Phoenix’s current strength, dealing with ordinary Immortal Masters should be like child’s play.
“Screech!”
Upon Qin Niu’s call, the Fire Phoenix transformed into a dazzling red streak, instantly appearing in the sky above Qin Niu’s head.
It swooped down sharply and landed steadily in front of Qin Niu.
The strong wind generated by its wing flaps caused the surrounding grass and trees to shake unceasingly, with some even toppling over.
“I need to leave for a while, and I entrust you with the protection of this mountain. This trip to the front lines is fraught with unknown dangers, and if I unfortunately fall in battle, I hope that for the kind bond we shared, you will protect Shuangfeng Village. If my wives or descendants face danger, protect them as much as you can.”
Qin Niu had assisted the avian in achieving its nirvana, which was a connection between him and the Fire Phoenix.
The contract he had with the Fire Phoenix was one of equality; he couldn’t simply order it to do anything.
“Is the place master is going far?”
