A Druid Also Can Cultivate-Chapter 309 - 307: Demon Insect Cultivation Manual Finale: Third Transformation - Transcendence

Chapter 309: Chapter 307: Demon Insect Cultivation Manual Finale: Third Transformation - Transcendence

After leaving the Cyan Origin Sect, Qi Ping had the bees transport the Celestial Brilliance Moth’s corpse and the dragon vein remains back to the territory.

As for himself, he controlled the tree-man avatar to return to the Cyan Origin Sect.

Since the preparations for the bees’ breakthrough could be handled by his main body, these tasks didn’t require much effort.

However, Qi Ping had more important things to do within the Cyan Origin Sect, namely preparing for the breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage.

First, he needed to consult Wang He about his experiences in breaking through the Golden Core Stage and understanding the Dao Heart.

Secondly, Qi Ping was only a step away from completing the cultivation technique for the Golden Core breakthrough, so during this period, he needed to stay in the Cultivation Technique Pavilion to exchange and research various cultivation knowledge and materials.

Qi Ping projected that within five years, he would begin his breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage. After preparing for so many years, with his Yin Yang Foundation already extremely stable, it was time to break through to the Golden Core and take the first step to becoming a powerful cultivator!

After returning to the Cyan Origin Sect, Qi Ping immediately went to visit Wang He...

...

On the other side, in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, within the Natural Sanctuary.

Qi Ping first handed the dragon vein remains, rich with earth vein essence, to the Earth Vein Ant King.

The Earth Vein Ant King’s eyes immediately filled with immense excitement upon seeing the dragon vein remains Qi Ping took out, before transforming into a flash and shooting onto the dragon vein remains.

"Zhi zhi... (Boss, where did you get such a marvelous thing!)" the Earth Vein Ant King exclaimed excitedly.

"Exchanged from within the Sect, it cost quite a few spirit stones. Can you nurture and cultivate this Dragon Spirit Earth Vein?"

This question also left Qi Ping anticipating.

The spirit vein beneath the territory had been stuck at Tier Two Perfection for nearly twenty or thirty years.

During this time, Qi Ping had fed it countless amounts of Spirit Tree Essence and Star Essence, but it had never been able to achieve a Tier Three transformation. The Spiritual Qi output only slightly increased, barely meeting the needs of Qi Ping and his animal companions.

This was a key reason why Qi Ping was so happy to encounter the Earth Vein Ant.

Qi Ping suspected the issue lay with the inadequate earth veins under the territory, as the strong spirit veins in the Immortal Cultivation Realm generally required earth veins to grow and strengthen.

Judging by the earth vein conditions, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range was still quite lacking!

However, Qi Ping had no solution for this. Clearing and grooming earth veins was beyond his capabilities or that of the Cyan Origin Sect.

"Zhi zhi... (It’s a bit difficult, boss... but it’s not impossible to try...)"

"Zhi zhi... (The spirit vein below has excellent qualities and exceptionally strong spirituality. It’s my first time encountering such a spiritual vein, so I feel there’s still a chance! And the quality of this dragon vein remains is very good. Combined, we can give it a try!)"

The Earth Vein Ant King was unaware of how many resources Qi Ping had fed that spirit vein. Qi Ping would feed even a small amount of Star Essence if he had any. The greatest resource consumption in the territory wasn’t from Qi Ping or any of his animal companions, but from that spirit vein!

"Zhi zhi... (However, this requires a relatively large underground space. Boss, you want to keep the presence of the earth vein a secret, right?)" the Earth Vein Ant King looked earnestly at Qi Ping as it said this.

"Yes, indeed!" Qi Ping nodded solemnly and continued:

"I hope this place is undiscoverable by anyone. Can you avoid the Cloud Mist Mountain Range’s earth veins and open a new earth vein deep underground?"

"Zhi zhi... (Open a new earth vein? Let me think...)"

Hearing Qi Ping’s words, the Earth Vein Ant King fell into deep thought.

The Earth Vein Ant Race’s previous experiences were all based on continuously grooming earth veins according to the past conditions in the Qingtian Realm, essentially grooming wherever they traveled, roaming around based on their bloodline instincts.

However, the speed of weakening and destruction of the earth veins always surpassed their grooming speed.

Yet, Qi Ping’s words suddenly opened the ant king’s mind. Why groom earth veins everywhere?

Why not focus on grooming the earth veins in one place, elevating their quality to a high level?

Yes, starting here, arranging for the earth vein ant colony to gather resources from everywhere and focusing on improving a single ground vein would be more beneficial for the race’s proliferation and the strengthening of their bloodline!

Though it never thought about this before...

But now, with its thoughts clarified, the Earth Vein Ant King became excited:

"Zhi zhi... (We can try it, boss! I can start here by gradually perfecting the earth vein, then expand it continually! But the array has to keep up, or else the grooming will cause noticeable movements that might impact other areas; it must be isolated with an array...)"

"Don’t worry about the array, leave it to me. You just focus on grooming the earth veins!"

...

With the Earth Vein Ant’s response, anticipation also rose in Qi Ping’s heart.

Earth veins, the foundation of spirit veins. Now, with the Earth Vein Ant grooming the earth veins, the spirit vein he cultivated finally had a chance to be further enhanced!

After settling this matter, Qi Ping turned his attention to the bees’ upcoming transformation.

In some sense, all previous transformations of the bees had been minor preparations. After many decades of whetting the sword, this time it would finally be drawn!

This metamorphosis potion was also the final potion in the [Spirit Beast Cultivation: Demon Insect Chapter]: Third Transformation: Transcendence!

[Third Transformation Elixir: Assisted by spiritual medicine, after three bloodline tribulations, success would rid them entirely of their mortal insect form, ascending in one leap, failure would result in death with no corpse!]

The Third Transformation Elixir as the final Chapter of [Spirit Beast Cultivation: Demon Insect Chapter] held the most domineering effects, with the highest mortality rate, but also those who ascend the Dragon Gate ascend the highest.

Whether one could achieve the Third Transformation depended partly on luck, and the results of previous transformations; only those bloodlines having undergone many transformations might withstand the terrifying pressure of the Third Transformation!

[Insect swarms that have not been tempered through transformation are unqualified for the Third Transformation!]

This is considered the highest meaning of the [Spirit Beast Cultivation: Demon Insect Chapter], that only by beginning transformation from the Tier One bloodline can one cultivate insect swarm bloodlines capable of enduring countless transformations!

Those who attempted the Third Transformation using demon insects with originally Tier Two bloodlines invariably died!

All previous preparations led to this final leap through the Dragon Gate!

However, Qi Ping judged from the content of this Demon Insect Cultivation Manual that there should still be new Chapters.

Qi Ping speculated that it might be in the cave residence to which Sister Nan had hinted, and after the bees completed this Third Transformation’s leap through the Dragon Gate, it might be the perfect time to visit there.

But for now, the most important task was to complete this final leap, especially since the bloodlines chosen by Qi Ping for the Third Transformation were quite formidable.

Thus, Qi Ping dared not be careless and immediately prepared with full effort...
