Chapter 119: Chapter 114 Cultivating Bees_i

Translator: 549690339 |

Qin Niu watched as the bee finished eating and waited patiently.

Lacking experience, he cherished the life of every pet.

Even though he knew that after the first batch of worker bees emerged from their pupae, there would be ten new bees becoming his pets every day.

He still cherished each pet immensely.

After the bee finished eating, there was no reaction at first, but then it started

to falter.

Its body began to swell and faint green veins appeared, looking somewhat like cracks, yet somewhat like green Banyan Tree Blood merging into its blood, spreading along its veins.

His experience with breeding the hornet last time added a little bit to his knowledge.

But it was incomparable to this time.

Because breeding that hornet was purely for making Silver Money, and he cultivated it to be as weak as possible.

Very little potion was used.

That hornet, like the Swift Ant, was an incomplete evolution, a semi-finished product.

But this time he was breeding bee species for himself and he definitely pursued perfection.

He wanted it to evolve to its strongest potential.

The dosage of Banyan Blood Potion he fed was calculated based on the safety amount for breeding termites and from his experience with the last hornet.

Mastering this dosage was very difficult.

Too little and it wouldn’t fully evolve, resulting in a semi-finished product.

Which could also be seen as a defective product.

Too much and it would explode and die.

Bang!

This poor worker bee couldn’t survive the process of becoming stronger and exploded on the spot.

Qin Niu watched with a heavy heart.

But the experiment had to continue.

The path of Insect Master growth was full of hardships.

Compared to other Insect Masters, he had a great advantage.

Other Insect Masters might have captured just an individual insect, rather than an Ant Queen or a Queen Bee. To cultivate them would be even more arduous, requiring extreme caution at every step.

Granted, they could experiment with other insects of the same species, but many special insects were irreplicable and unique.

For instance, his Ant Queen and Fourth were just such beings.

Furthermore, every material that could evolve and strengthen an insect was extremely precious and rare.

Which Insect Master would be willing to feed them to ordinary insects?

Qin Niu’s termites and bees could be mass-produced, and Banyan Tree Blood and ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ Blood were inexhaustible, so there was no need to worry about raw materials.

It was with these advantages that he was able to breed so many special termites in a very short period of time.

Now, it would be the same with breeding bees.

He believed he could quickly breed a large batch of special bees.

“You, come here!”

This time, Qin Niu chose to reduce the amount of Banyan Tree Blood and mixed it with the honey before feeding it to the worker bee.

Then came another long wait.

In anxious anticipation, this worker bee miraculously made it through.

Qin Niu couldn’t hide his smile of success.

With only two bees used for the experiment, he had already found a preliminary safe dosage, which showed that the valuable experience he gained from breeding termites and the various beekeeping knowledge he learned were all highly effective.

“Not bad, not bad, all eight of you will be dealt with together.”

Qin Niu looked up at the sky, which had started to darken.

However, with his now considerable strength, he was not very afraid.

Xiao Nui, having eaten until its belly was round, lay comfortably under the pine tree, squinting its eyes as it watched him.

With Xiao Nui’s company, Qin Niu felt less lonely in the deep mountains.

For now, he had no intention of practicing cultivation with Xiao Qing.

After all, they hadn’t been in contact for long.

Even though she was just a child and not harboring bad intentions, one couldn’t see through a person’s character in just a day or two.

The journey reveals the strength of the horses, time reveals the heart of the people.

He brought Xiao Qing back with him purely because she was an orphan. Plus, with her grandfather’s dying request, he provided her with a place to stay.

Following Qin Niu was much better than being captured and sold to a wealthy family as a maid or worse, sold into a brothel.

Qin Niu didn’t see himself as a good person, with a ruthless heart, but he was certainly not a bad person either.
