Chapter 129 - Chapter 129: Chapter 124 Getting Stronger Bit by Bit_i (2/2)

The remaining five Grade Two Worker Bees were responsible for vigilance, ready to exterminate any Scout Wasps from the bumblebees that came into view.

Once everything was sorted out, he confidently went with Fourth under the Ancient Banyan Tree.

It was already approaching noon.

To nurture this Queen Bee, he had spent the entire morning.

But it was all worth it.

The Queen Bee had successfully passed the most dangerous period, and Qin Niu had accumulated a lot of valuable experience in cultivating the Ant Queen.

Next was the patient wait of several days to see what the Queen Bee would evolve into.

He was sitting cross-legged underneath the Ancient Banyan Tree, cultivating the Medicine King Sutra.

Absorbing the medicinal energy from this Ancient Banyan Tree to cultivate the Medicine King Sutra was just too exhilarating.

It was even more terrifying than cheating.

As he continued to absorb the medicinal energy and transform it into his cultivation power, his cultivation level was constantly improving.

About an hour or so later, his body trembled slightly.

The power of the Medicine King Sutra had smoothly broken through to Twofold of the common folk.

It was much easier than he had imagined.

“The ability to perceive medicinal herbs seems to have more than doubled!”

Qin Niu excitedly discovered now that when he perceived the Ancient Banyan

Tree, he could vaguely sense the terrifying energy contained within, rather than only being able to feel its formidable medicinal aura.

Moreover, he noticed that some of the small trees and grasses around him also contained a certain amount of energy within them.

As for the medicinal properties of the energy, he was still unable to discern them.

These small trees and grasses were not emitting any medicinal aura.

They were more like puppets or attachments of the great banyan tree.

They had no independent abilities.

It was also possible that they were actually part of the great banyan tree itself.

To understand their relationship with the great banyan tree, Qin Niu would probably have to wait until his Medicine King Sutra reached a higher level.

He also specifically checked his lifespan, which he cared about most.

Now, with each small advancement in the Everlasting Spring Technique, his lifespan could increase by five years.

The Medicine King Sutra had now broken through to Twofold of the common folk.

As a result, he found his lifespan had increased from 76 years to 77 years.

Not bad, an increase of one year in his lifespan.

It seemed all cultivation techniques had the ability to extend life to some extent, although they varied in strength.

Life-Nurturing Techniques were probably the type that could add the most to one’s life span.

After cultivating for some time, he let Fourth lead the way.

Because he had not brought the Ant Queen with him today, he wasn’t sure if Fourth would be able to lead him out.

After some twists and turns, Fourth finally successfully led him through the maze of the Ancient Banyan Tree.

“Fourth, well done! Next time we come here, there’s no need to move the Ant Queen with us.”

Qin Niu felt particularly happy.

Previously, he had to bring the Ant Queen with him every time he came here, which was very inconvenient and could easily put the Ant Queen in danger.

Now it was good, the Ant Queen didn’t need to leave the nest, and Fourth was still able to lead him successfully through the maze.

This also indicated that the stronger Fourth became, the greater the distance of extreme perception from the Ant Queen would be.

After leaving, the first thing Qin Niu did was check on the Queen Bee’s condition.

Not bad, the entire beehive was calm.

Five Grade Two Worker Bees were patrolling outside the hive, strictly following Qin Niu’s orders without going out to collect pollen.

For the task of gathering nectar, it was left to the ordinary worker bees to handle.

The main task of these Grade Two Worker Bees was to guard the Queen Bee.

To ensure that the Queen Bee was absolutely safe.

The five bees sensed Qin Niu’s presence and flew out from the hive, circling 111 front of him.

“Eh, could it be that the five Grade Two Rapid-Growth Worker Bees that are patrolling can split themselves?”

Qin Niu was somewhat surprised.

The five Grade Two Worker Bees were still patrolling near the hive.

So who were these individuals that were larger than the ordinary worker bees, with light green wings?

The only thing he could think of was the Rapid-Growth Worker Bees he had cultivated the day before.

They were somewhat similar to the Swift Ants.

They were like ‘half-finished products’ of incomplete evolution.

Their flying speed was clearly much faster than that of ordinary worker bees.
