Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points-Chapter 306 - 299: The Powerful Young Man from the Mountain Village_1
Chapter 306: Chapter 299: The Powerful Young Man from the Mountain Village_1

Feeding the Green Ox, Golden Toad, Green Demon Bee, and other pets directly was definitely not possible.
Because the terrible consequences of using it to cultivate bees in the past were still deeply imprinted on Qin Niu’s mind.
After consuming it, the bees died on the spot, without a single survivor.
Qin Niu continued reading the Rare Herbs and Plants Atlas, as the content of this book was extremely valuable. By memorizing it, he would not miss out on special plants when he encountered them in the future.
However, he had cultivated the Medicine King Sutra and could easily perceive the amount of energy and medicinal qi contained in a plant, and it was difficult for any slightly powerful plant to escape his detection.
But there were always exceptions.
For example, a Bodhi Tree – if it was still a sapling, its medicinal qi and energy would be weak, and the Medicine King Sutra would not be able to detect it at all under these circumstances.
Moreover, if he had the chance to raid some prominent families and snatch spoils of war, he could learn about the characteristics and effects of each precious herb and plant and act first to gain the upper hand.
The Medicine King Sutra could sense that a tree’s energy and medicinal qi were strong, but that didn’t necessarily mean the tree held significant value.
It was also possible that the tree was just about to become sentient.
So, the Medicine King Sutra was not infallible in identifying plants.
He still needed to learn more and accumulate knowledge.
…
In the blink of an eye, five days passed, and Qin Niu’s Zombie Ants had successfully evolved.
Their abilities had also become stronger.
One hundred and thirty-eight Grade Four Iron Stiff Ants, with a lifespan of 99 years, special abilities (Intermediate Carapace, Intermediate Self-healing, Super Strong Biting, Tremendous Strength, Corpse Poison Attack, Assimilation (the enemies bitten by them would be easily assimilated). Night Demon (this ant species, in darkness or an environment with heavy yin, would double its combat power, and its self-healing ability would become extremely strong)).
Their lifespan and overall abilities were much stronger than that of the Grade Three Zombie Ants.
The only regret was that no new special abilities emerged.
In theory, upon advancing a grade, it was entirely possible for them to evolve one or two new special abilities.
Perhaps they were already strong enough on their own.
So, evolving new special abilities had become even more difficult.
This was completely acceptable.
Special abilities were not necessarily better in greater numbers.
It was better to evolve one simple and practical special ability than to evolve a multitude of mediocre ones.
The evolution of pets involved their own choices and intelligence, and Qin Niu was full of confidence in them.
He would never harshly demand that they evolve a certain number of special abilities.
Everything followed its natural course.
His ant colony was still growing by a thousand ants every day, with the rare Demon Ant species sometimes increasing by one, sometimes by two or three.
As the accumulation continued, the number of special ant species was steadily increasing.
Healing Ants and Elephantic Ants were gradually forming a small scale too.
As for the Poisonous Ants, they had now become rampant.
Moreover, their venom was highly toxic.
Even beings like Elder Jiu Yin needed to take a Detoxification Pill immediately after being bitten, or they would be in mortal danger.
The combat ability of the Termite colony had also officially reached a new height.
Even when facing large beast pets like lions and elephants, they were no longer the weaker group.
They could completely rely on their venom to defeat their enemies.
Unconsciously, Qin Niu had already fed the Ant Queen seven corpses of the Taiyin Yaoyao.
Others, Grade Four and Grade Five insect corpses, had been fed in great amounts.
And that was on a daily basis.
Even the resources allocated to Fourth were significantly less.
The Ant Queen was always considered Qin Niu’s most core pet for nurturing.

But it had eaten so much and still hadn’t leveled up.
This made Qin Niu somewhat impatient.
There were a total of nine Taiyin Yaoyao corpses, and after feeding seven of them, only two remained.
After feeding today’s ordinary Taiyin Yaoyao, only the king insect’s body would be left.
If the Ant Queen still couldn’t evolve, then there would basically be no hope left.
The undying body of the Taiyin Yaoyao made Qin Niu extremely envious.
Truth be told, even if he knew Elder Jiu Yin’s cultivation method, it would be nearly impossible to replicate.
Because for the sake of cultivating the Taiyin Yaoyao, Elder Jiu Yin was utterly inhumane, even resorting to the most bloodthirsty of gu-raising techniques. He used living people, specifically virgin boys and girls, to cultivate the Taiyin Yaoyao.
In addition, he utilized a variety of high-level cultivation resources.
It could be said that if Qin Niu’s boundary-breaking elixir was considered a rare treasure, then Elder Jiu Yin had used resources for cultivating the Taiyin Yaoyao that were at least equivalent to no less than fifty boundary-breaking elixirs.
He had also sacrificed countless human lives.
To the members of the Nine Insect Gang, those demons, human life meant nothing at all. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
As long as they could cultivate powerful insects, they were even willing to use their own bodies as cauldrons.
This was not madness, but rather they had fallen into a demonic state.
His ant colony was constantly growing stronger, and cultivation was underway with utmost urgency; he had also been busy with many other things these past few days.
Since filling the backyard pond with water, he had transplanted the Ice Lotus into it.
This also made the temperature in the backyard exceptionally cold.
There was even a light mist enshrouding the lotus pond in the backyard.
The Ice Lotus indeed needed to be grown in water.
It had now fully recovered to normal and was becoming lively again. And under the nourishment of Qin Niu’s Everlasting Spring Technique, it was growing rapidly.
At this rate, in just a few years, it might be possible for it to almost step into the ranks of the mystical creatures.
It was already strong enough now, continually releasing cold energy that could even freeze the surface of the lotus pond.
However, it only froze at night; by day, the thin ice over the pond would melt away.
Such ability was far beyond that of ordinary mutant plants.
Therefore, Qin Niu was very confident that he could help it break through and cross into the threshold of mystical creatures in just a few years’ time.
There was another piece of good news: the Green Demon Bee, under the nourishment of War Bee, was eating Elder Jiu Yin’s fresh blood every day and growing rapidly.
The Corpse Bee ant egg had already begun to gradually merge with its body.
This fusion was exceedingly strange.
The Corpse Bee’s eggs had always failed to hatch, but with the merger with the Green Demon Bee’s body, it had successfully hatched.
However, the two young bees, one big and one small, were fused together like conjoined freaks, swallowing each other.
It was uncertain when the swallowing process would be completed.
Qin Niu had enough patience to wait.
After consuming the Ancient Banyan Tree Blood, the Red-eyed Golden Toad lay on its back in its nest, motionless.
Apart from Qin Niu peeking at it in the corner every day, no one else disturbed it.
It was as if the whole world had forgotten about it.
In these five days, Qin Niu also managed to subdue a Green-Head Summoning Bee.
When he had captured the two Green-Head Summoning Bees, he found their abilities to be very special. He thought he could domesticate them to cultivate a special type of bee or use them for other research.
Only after subduing them did he realize how special they truly were.
Their other abilities were quite common, but they had two particular abilities that were incredibly powerful.
One was their flying ability, possessing exceptionally strong flying skills.
This made them nearly invincible in aerial combat. Even if they couldn’t win, escape was always an option.
