Chapter 210: Chapter 205: Xiao Qing’s Talent_i

This is because of the effect of the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze, which can isolate the outside world and form a small world within.
Standing outside, one naturally cannot sense its vast energy.
“Take three steps forward.”
Qin Niu signaled to her.
Faithfully, Xiao Qing took three steps forward, but when she turned back, she immediately panicked.
She could no longer see her master’s figure.
In her haste to return, she quickly realized with horror that she kept circling the same spot, trapped.
Just as she was in turmoil, Qin Niu also walked into the maze from the outside.
“Master, I seem to be trapped and can’t find my way out. I couldn’t find you just now.”
“This is a maze, once you’re in, there’s no getting out. Feel the medicinal qi here.”
Qin Niu pointed to the Ancient Banyan Tree.
She closed her eyes and focused intently.
“Oh my goodness, its medicinal qi is terrifying!”
“From now on, when I come here to cultivate, you will join me. But there’s one thing you must remember, never reveal anything about this place to anyone else, or it will surely bring us lethal trouble.”
Qin Niu gave her a stern warning.
“Sure, I get it!”
She couldn’t wait to sit down cross-legged and began to try cultivating the Medicine King Sutra with her eyes closed.
Qin Niu quietly left the maze and went to cultivate his termites.
Upon arriving at the ant nest, he was pleasantly surprised to find another Demon Ant had emerged, bringing the total to three ordinary Demon Ants.
With just a bit of cultivation, these could be three great generals.
Fourth’s position as Marshal was for the time being still unchallenged by any other termite.
“Eh, the first batch of Grade Two strong Worker Ants and strong Soldier Ants has also completed their evolution.”
Dozens of strikingly impressive Grade Three ants appeared before him.
After evolving, the Grade Two strong Worker Ants’ bodies surprisingly developed dense green scales, each shining with a metallic luster.
This was no ordinary green scale armor but an exoskeleton made of green scales.
Their scale armor was even stronger than that of the Grade Three green-scale Giant Puppet Worker Ants.
Moreover, they were also noticeably larger in size.
Qin Niu looked at the new species with delight.
He turned his gaze to another new breed.
They were evolved from Grade Two strong Soldier Ants. Their entire bodies were like cast steel, shining with a metallic glow. Moreover, they were extremely agile, and their terrifying mandibles looked chilling to the observer.
If they clamped down on you, a chunk of flesh would be gone instantly.
Watching them nonstop flexing their ‘weapons’, even if a beetle from the Coleoptera order came by, it would instantly have its shell torn apart and killed on the spot.
Qin Niu couldn’t wait to check their attributes.
27 Grade Three Green Armor Giant Worker Ants, lifespan of 33 years, special abilities (Swiftness, Super Endurance, Immense Strength, Armor Piercing, and their formic acid can assist in the healing of plant wounds. Intermediate Green Scales.)
11 Grade Three Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ants, lifespan of 30.5 years, special abilities (Swiftness, Armor Piercing, possessing Intermediate Carapace, Frenzy, with speed increased by three times in a frenzied state, attack power increased by ten times, and defense increased by one time.)
After evolution, compared to the veteran Grade Two green-scale Giant Worker Ants and Grade Two Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ants, their lifespan had significantly increased.
And their abilities also improved qualitatively.
Take the veteran Grade Two Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ant for instance, it did not have the special ability of Swiftness and its relatively slow movement was a critical vulnerability.
Although its speed could greatly increase in a frenzied state, its sluggishness in a normal state was a substantial flaw.
The new Grade Three Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ants had already remedied this shortcoming.
I believe their performance on the battlefield will be even more outstanding.
Their combat strength is so formidable that they can almost match Fourth.
Of course, if Fourth entered a state of demonization, they would instantly have to bow down in submission.
And Fourth’s overall combat strength is tremendously strong.
Venom Attack, Spirit Control, Intermediate Carapace, plus possessing Medium Intelligence*, they simply cannot compare.

As the cultivation of insects progresses, the difference in abilities shrinks.
Sometimes, even a slight special ability advantage over an opponent is enough to secure victory.
Therefore, up to this point, Fourth remains an unbeatable presence in the ant group.
Qin Niu was curious whether the defense of the Grade Three Green Armor Giant Worker Ants was comparable to the Grade Three Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ants?
Intermediate Green Scales and Intermediate Carapace both seemed to provide medium-level defensive capabilities.
The specifics, however, would only be known after they entered the battlefield.
The green-scale armor, being composed of scales, provided more flexibility. The Intermediate Carapace was like a turtle shell, a singular piece without any weak points, but rather inflexible in comparison.
Their paths of evolution were also different.
Worker Ants primarily engaged in labor, while Soldier Ants were mainly responsible for defense and combat.
“Feeding all thirty-eight Grade Three ants with Thousand Eyes Tree Blood should be able to promote them to Grade Four.”
Qin Niu had this kind of cultivation experience.
Because Grade Two Tiger Stripe Iron Armor Ants could be promoted to Grade Three after consuming Thousand Eyes Tree Blood.
“Line up, I’ll be promoting you to Grade Four right away.”
He dug out a small jar of Thousand Eyes Tree Blood hidden under the tree and fed it to them.
Soldier Ants didn’t have the ability to progress on their own and had to be fed by the Grade Three Green Armor Giant Worker Ants.
“These gluttons, not even forty strong, actually consumed half a jar of Thousand Eyes Tree Blood. They eat too much,” Qin Niu lamented as he watched the rapidly depleting Thousand Eyes Tree Blood, a frown forming on his face.
It was the secret formula for cultivating termites with Spirit Control or Mental Attack.
It took him a long time to accumulate this small jar of Thousand Eyes Tree Blood.
Based on their current consumption rate, a small jar could at most cultivate a hundred termites.
His dream was to form a massive army of termites, at least one hundred thousand strong.
He would have to think of a solution.
Apart from striving to cultivate the “Thousand Eyes Tree” to increase blood collection, perhaps he could consider the breeding process of ordinary termites.
The blood of the Ancient Banyan Tree was almost inexhaustible, while the output of the “Thousand Eyes Tree” blood was very limited.
Previously, in order to reduce the mortality rate of cultivating termites, he first let them ingest Ancient Banyan Tree blood to complete evolution, then feed them “Thousand Eyes Tree” blood.
Now that thousands of termites were produced daily, even if there was some mortality in the cultivation process, it was acceptable.
Moreover, his experience in cultivating termites was now extremely rich; the survival rate of the termites he cultivated was above 99%.
With these two conditions, he had already begun to consider feeding the termites “Thousand Eyes Tree” blood first.
Only afterward would he feed them Ancient Banyan Tree blood.
Only in this way could he ensure that a vast ant army would be assembled in a short period of time.
Currently, among the first batch of cultivated termites, only Breeder Ants, Poisonous Ants, and Demon Ants were still evolving.
Based on the timeline, Breeder Ants and Poisonous Ants should complete their evolution in the next two days.
The Demon Ants, however, would probably take a little longer.
Qin Niu’s cultivation of termites and his retreat into the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze for personal cultivation goes without saying.
Having just advanced to the Innate Realm, he needed to consolidate his realm and had to put in a great deal of hard work. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Master and servant practiced inside the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze until evening before emerging.
After a day of arduous cultivation, Qin Niu had not only made significant progress in the power of Medicine King Sutra but had also consolidated his level in the Everlasting Spring Technique to a certain extent. He was very satisfied with the results of his practice.
The dozen or so “Thousand Eyes Trees” transplanted yesterday were showing a pleasing growth trend under the nourishment of Everlasting Spring Technique.
At least ten times faster than the normal growth rate.
If nothing unexpected happens, the supply of “Thousand Eyes Tree” blood should not be so tight after a while.
“Master, cultivating in here is truly wonderful! Did you know? I have now broken through to the Human Fourfold!”
Xiao Qing’s face was filled with joy.
Anyone experiencing the taste of rapid advancement in cultivation would feel extremely delighted.
Growing stronger is the most instinctual pursuit of every creature.
“Not bad at all, breaking through a small realm after just one day of cultivation,”
Qin Niu praised her with a smile.
After returning home, Qin Niu first checked on the Diamond Ink Turtle.
After consuming that elixir, it had been motionless at the bottom of the water.
It was probably digesting and absorbing the energy of the elixir.
Pets, unlike humans, cannot learn to cultivate techniques and, in the early stages, can only comprehend and explore on their own. Once they have opened their spiritual intelligence and achieved a certain level of cultivation, it may be possible to understand some more profound techniques with the guidance of their masters.
Back in the days of the ‘Teaching without Distinction’ school, many little demons went to listen to the lectures of the Supreme Master of Tongtian.
Even if they only gained a hint of insight, they later became powerful great demons.
This little turtle could only explore on its own now; no one could help it.
In his cultivation journey, Qin Niu was also feeling his way across the river by feeling the stones.
Concerning the cultivation method for Everlasting Spring Technique, he had only grasped a hint, far from being profound.
After checking on the little turtle, he went to look at the calf.
It was still the same as usual.
However, its horns seemed to have grown much longer.
Unlike those of ordinary water buffalo, its horns are clearly different. The horns of other buffaloes grow outward in the shape of a crescent moon.
Its horns, on the other hand, grow upward.
There is no sign of bending as of yet.
Its name is Board-Horned Male Water Buffalo. Naturally, its horns are somewhat different.
“It has already been sleeping for far more than a month, I wonder if it is alright?”
Qin Niu could not do much for it.
He could only provide it with a safe environment shielded from wind and rain.
The next day, he took Xiao Qing with him into the mountains to cultivate. When they finished their cultivation, Xiao Qing actually told him that she had advanced another small realm.
Her cultivation had progressed from Human Fourfold to Human Fivefold.
This astonishing pace of cultivation immediately caught Qin Niu’s attention.
You should know that he, too, was cultivating Medicine King Sutra under the Ancient Banyan Tree and needed three days to advance a small realm.
When Xiao Qing progressed from Threefold to Human Fourfold yesterday, he thought it was because of some prior accumulation on her part.
Today’s breakthrough into another small realm immediately made him realize that Xiao Qing’s talent for cultivating Medicine King Sutra was far superior to his own.
Considering that the Medicine King Sutra was found together with her, it is very likely that her parents also practiced Medicine King Sutra.
Now that she is displaying such astonishing talent, her origins may not be simple.
Based on the abilities of Medicine King Sutra, it does not belong to Life- Nurturing Techniques, but may instead be a technique created specifically for harvesting herbs.
There may also be other abilities, for example, it could be used for compounding medicines or making elixirs.
Only when Qin Niu becomes more powerful in the future and comes into contact with more cultivation knowledge will he be able to understand more.
When the two of them returned to the village, they found Steward Yan Qi’s carriage outside.
“Master Qin!”
Yan Qi greeted with a heavy expression on his face.
Normally, when Yan Qi came and Qin Niu wasn’t home, he would go sit at Wang Furen’s house.
Today, however, he was waiting inside his carriage, which likely meant something had happened.
