Chapter 381: Chapter 373: Cultivating the Weekly Cycle_1

The bees and termites sent out vanished without a trace, with no information coming back.

That night, Qin Niu had entered the mountain peak before him; he knew the peak’s top was the most dangerous place because demon birds were likely to nest near the summit.

The termites and bees had just set out, and it might take some time for them to reach above the middle of the mountain.

Suddenly, his heart quivered slightly—a Green Ring Bee had been sacrificed.

Soon after, several more Green Ring Bees perished.

The situation for the termites was also grim.

More and more termites were getting killed in succession.

The sound of bird calls rose from the mountain.

Birds flew out one after another from the dense foliage; sparrows, shrikes, woodpeckers, coots… These birds, as if suddenly disturbed, all made their appearance.

“Not good!”

Qin Niu hadn’t discovered these birds when he scouted the peak last night.

Choosing to scout the peak during daylight turned out to be a completely different situation from nighttime scouting. He hadn’t expected so many birds to inhabit this mountain.

“Termites, immediately burrow underground to hide; all bees, return!”

He made a quick decision.

Facing these birds, the termites and Green Ring Bees had no power to fight back, suggesting that these birds might not be ordinary but could have undergone evolution.

Just like the few thousand ducks he was raising, some had already shown signs of evolution.

They had stronger hunting abilities than regular ducks.

Living atop this mountain peak was a demon bird; it was completely normal for there to be some formidable birds.

It seems he would have to scout the peak again at night.

He had already resolved to let the termites scout inside the peak at night.

Termites had a great advantage: they could crawl on the ground. At night, most birds would not be able to see them, and they would be much safer.

He had no intention of personally scouting the peak.

At least with his current strength, he was no match for that demon bird. It was safer to be cautious.

Seeing that it was getting late, he headed straight back home.

Leaving behind approximately three hundred termites to explore the mountain on their own.

At home, the meal was ready, just waiting for his return.

Of the three female slaves, only Tang Zhilei, who was injured, still couldn’t work. The other two had already followed Xiao Qing in managing household affairs.

“Cai Xian, you finally came out!”

Qin Niu said with a smile.

“Don’t poke fun at me, Ah Niu. The Dragon Elephant Skill requires continuity during practice; I had to persist until I completed a full cycle.”

Tang Caixian appeared to have changed somewhat.

It was indescribable.

But she seemed to radiate an aura of increased sharpness.

“You can now practice a full cycle?”

Qin Niu had also pondered on the Dragon Elephant Skill, thereby understanding its various stages of cultivation.

To be able to cultivate a full cycle meant reaching the second layer of the Dragon Elephant Skill.

Considering Tang Caixian had only been practicing this Cultivation Technique for a few days, he hadn’t expected her talent to be so profound.

“Yes! For now, I’ve only managed a single cycle; since it’s my first time, I’m not very proficient yet, and it took almost two days and nights,” she said, somewhat bashfully.
