The Fruit Blossom Bee Queen's Cultivation
Under normal circumstances, an adult spirit rooster can lay one spirit egg every month, and one spirit egg is worth five Spirit Stone on the market.
Such a long-term return and investment of so many Spirit Stone is not a good business opportunity for the Ling Clan, which is currently short of manpower and cannot even manage the Spirit Field they have developed on various Spirit Vein.
"Fifteenth Great Grandfather, you didn't have to do this," Ling Pengyun said.
"Are you complaining that the number of Songhua Spirit Chicken Flock I raised for you is too small? Or have you become indifferent to the profits from the chickens now that you've entered the Foundation Establishment Realm?" Ling Rushui said with a sneer.
"That's not the case, Fifteenth Great Grandfather. My original intention in bringing you back to the clan to live out your days was to ensure you had no worries and could peacefully pass through the last years of your life. However, you are now raising these chickens, which takes up a lot of your energy every day, which conflicts with my original intention," Ling Pengyun quickly explained.
"This is how I've done my whole life. If I have nothing to do, I feel bored. I only feel comfortable when I'm busy. So please don't stop me from raising the Songhua Spirit Chicken Flock."
Ling Rushui understood Ling Pengyun's good intentions, but he wanted to leave Ling Pengyun with something useful, he said firmly.
"Alright, but since you intend to leave this Fifteenth Great Grandfather of chickens to me in the future, I should also provide the spiritual grains that this flock needs to eat every day." Seeing that Ling Rushui's attitude was firm, Ling Pengyun had no choice but to agree.
"No need. I've saved up quite a few Spirit Stone over the years. In a few years, when my lifespan ends and I pass away, I will give you all those Spirit Stone. Using those Spirit Stone to raise these chickens now is the same thing," Ling Rudao.
Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun was not happy that Ling Rushui would bequeath his inheritance to him. Instead, he felt somewhat heavy-hearted because of Ling Rushui's lifespan.
Just as Ling Pengyun was lost in thought, Ling Rushui spoke again.
"By the way, those three Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm that you entrusted to me to take care of back then have grown quite a bit in the past three years."
"Come on, I'll take you to the quiet room where two of the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm are located."
After saying that, Ling Rushui, with a smile on her face, led Ling Pengyun into a quiet room in the courtyard.
In the corner of the quiet room, two Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm lay prostrate on the ground, fast asleep.
"These two smaller Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm both broken through a small level of cultivation and entered the Qi Training Second Layer Refining after three years of eating spiritual fruits every day to improve their cultivation."
"As for the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which reached the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer three years ago, last year it strengthened its physique to a level similar to that of Demon Beast of the same level through the method of tempering its body with spiritual power. As a result, it was able to withstand the predicament of the huge spiritual power impacting its body during the process of breaking through to the Qi Training Late Stage and successfully broke through to the Qi Training Late Stage."
"This spirit earthworm has reached the Qi Training Late Stage. As you instructed in the letter that Yun Hong gave me back then, I lent that Qi Training Late Stage Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm to the Lineage to cultivate those few acres of Spirit Soil in the mountaintop Spirit Field Spirit Field that had not yet reached Grade A quality," Ling Rushui said, pointing to the two Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm.
"Fifteenth Great Grandfather, thank you for your help these past three years." Ling Pengyun was delighted to hear that the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which had been stuck at the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer, had entered the Qi Training Late Stage a year ago, and expressed his gratitude.
"We're family, no need for formalities, you don't need to thank me," Ling Rushui said with a smile.
"Yes." Ling Pengyun's smile widened as he agreed.
Afterwards, Ling Pengyun and Ling Rushui left the quiet room and sat together in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting.
After having lunch together, Ling Pengyun left the courtyard and headed towards the mountaintop.
On his way to the mountaintop, he used the Supreme Elder Token given to him by his Lineage, along with the corresponding Secret Method, to break through the Transformed Defense Light Screen on the mountaintop, the large area of mist obscuring his Divine Sense, and the array that separately protected the Spirit Field area on the mountaintop, and entered the Spirit Field area on the mountaintop.
Previously, only two people could use their own tokens to break through the protective array that guarded this area of Spirit Field Spirit Field on the mountaintop and enter it.
These two individuals are the previous generation's Great Elder Ling Ruxian and Clan Head Ling Yunhong.
Now there are four people: Ling Ruxian, Ling Yunhong, Acting Great Elder Ling Pengliang, and Supreme Elder Ling Pengyun.
The reason why Ling Pengliang and Ling Pengyun were added is because both of them are high-ranking members of the Lineage and are also Spirit Planter.
After entering the Spirit Field Spirit Field, Ling Pengyun first walked to the few acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Field in this area. He scanned these few acres of First-Tier Superior-Grade spirit Spirit Field with his Divine Sense and summoned his Qi Training Late Stage Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm out of the Spirit Soil.
As soon as the Qi Training Late Stage Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm emerged from the Spirit Soil, it crawled to Ling Pengyun's feet and rubbed against him.
Seeing this, Ling Pengyun was quite satisfied with the behavior of the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm.
Then, he began to observe the changes in the spirit earthworm as it entered the Qi Training Late Stage.
This Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm is now as thick as a calf, and its physique has reached the Qi Training Eighth Layer.
Upon observing this situation, Ling Pengyun was startled.
"The physique of the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm clan has always been fragile. The fact that this Earth -Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm, which is at the Qi Training Seventh Layer, has reached such a level must be due to its own cultivation."
"In the past, this spirit earthworm would only temper its body when it was unable to break through its cultivation level due to its physical condition."
"It is strange that he has tempered his body ahead of schedule."
"Nine out of ten of these earthworms are exceptionally intelligent."
"Among Qi Training Demon Beast, those with extraordinary intelligence generally have good aptitude."
"This does have some connection to this Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm."
"In just over ten years, this spirit earthworm has progressed from the Innate Perfection to the late Qi Training Late Stage. Even if I infused this spirit earthworm with a mouthful of Yin Yang Primordial Power in its early years, its original aptitude must have been quite strong. Now, with that mouthful of Yin Yang Primordial Power, its comprehension, aptitude, and so on have changed, it is understandable that it has extraordinary intelligence."
"This Qi Training Late Stage is definitely not its final realm."
"I'm afraid this spirit earthworm, like Wind Shadow Peng, will have some chance to Foundation Establishment in the future; it's just a matter of time."
"We also need to prepare for the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, as well as the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm and the Wind Shadow Peng."
For Spirit Plant Master, the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm is of great significance. This spirit earthworm can enhance the quality of the Spirit Soil in the Spirit Field. The highest quality Grade A Spirit Soil can accelerate the growth rate of Spirit Plant of the same grade as the Spirit Field by 30%.
This kind of enhancement is nothing short of an alternative Spirit Plant Secret Method.
If Wind Shadow Peng were to enter the Foundation Establishment, the effect would be even more obvious: Foundation Establishment Realm combat Spirit Beast.
Ling Pengyun thought about it carefully for a while and then came to his senses.
He waved his hand to dismiss the Earth-Turning Spirit Earthworm the ground at his feet, and then walked into the Spirit Field area, under the Stone Spirit Walnut Tree.
After arriving at the tree, he raised his head and looked at the huge beehive hanging on a thick branch of the Stone Spirit Walnut Tree. He then released his Divine Sense Divine Sense used it to touch the Fruit Flower Bee King inside the beehive.
Inside the hive, the Fruit Flower Bee King sensed the touch of her Master's Divine Sense and immediately flew out of the hive to Ling Pengyun's side.
Because Ling Pengyun had already entered the Foundation Establishment and possessed a powerful aura, the queen bee dared not look directly at Ling Pengyun and kept her head down.
Seeing the queen bee's current behavior, Ling Pengyun couldn't help but recall the scene when he first met her.
At that time, the queen bee was extremely arrogant and completely disobeyed his orders.
Ling Pengyun smiled, then noticed that the Queen Bee's cultivation had broken through to the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer, and was shocked.
"Peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer."
"I hadn't expected that."
"However, it's a good thing that this bee's cultivation has changed so much in the three years since I left the Clan Mountain."
"As long as this queen bee can reach the Qi Training Late Stage, the bee colony can become even stronger."
After a moment of silence, Ling Pengyun gave instructions to the queen bee.
"Summon the entire swarm of bees."
It's only been a short time since spring began, a time when everything is reviving and most fruit trees are in bloom.
More than 99% of the worker bees in the colony had gone out to collect pollen, which resulted in very few worker bees remaining in the hive hanging on the Stone Spirit Walnut Tree.
The Fruit Flower Bee King, who had not seen her Master for three years, sensed the powerful aura emanating from Master and dared not delay any longer. Upon hearing the order, she immediately used her Bee Queen Secret Method to summon the swarm back.
Before a cup of tea had been brewed, a dense swarm of over a thousand bees returned to the Spirit Field area from all directions.
The array protecting the Spirit Field area was restricted by the Fifth Elder, Ling Yunxi. The Transformed Defense Light Screen by the array could be easily penetrated by the Fruit Bee, as could the clouds and mist on the mountaintop that concealed Divine Sense and the light barrier created by the array protecting the mountaintop.
Once the swarm had assembled, Ling Pengyun used his Divine Sense to scan the massive swarm in front of him, calculating the number of ordinary Fruit Bee and the number of Qi Training Stage Fruit Flower Bee worker bees.
The bee colony has a total of 1,868 bees, including 1,808 ordinary Fruit Bee and 60 Qi -Qi Refining Fruit Flower Bee.
Of these sixty Fruit Flower Worker Bee Fruit Flower Worker Bee bees in the Qi Training Stage, forty-eight are in the Early-Stage Qi Training and twelve are in the middle stage of Fruit Flower Worker Bee Qi Training Middle Stage.
Ling Pengyun frowned when he saw that the number and cultivation level of this Qi Training Stage bee swarm were not much different from three years ago.
He could easily guess that this was because the queen bee had unilaterally decided on the production of graded fruit Fruit Flower Honey by the sixty Qi Training Stage Refining stage Fruit Flower Worker Bee.
"Now that you have reached the peak of the Qi Training Sixth Layer, I will give you three years. If you rely on the Grade Fruit Flower Honey produced by the entire hive and your cultivation has not yet broken through to the Qi Training Late Stage, you must stop consuming Grade A Fruit Flower Honey."
"Instead, the Fruit Flower Honey produced by the bee colony was used to enhance the cultivation of the sixty Qi Training Stage worker bees."
Ling Pengyun gave instructions to the queen bee.
The queen bee, having received the signal, immediately nodded in response.
Although it harbored some resentment, it dared not show it, lest it incur Ling Pengyun's displeasure.
After the matter was settled, Ling Pengyun left the place and returned to his own courtyard. He chatted with Ling Rushui for a while before entering the quiet room in the courtyard.
Sitting cross-legged on a Meditation Mat, Ling Pengyun, considering the impending Centennial Demon Beast Calamity, decided to put aside his studies on Spirit Plant, the Secret Method of weapon crafting, and the forging of magical Law Artifact for the time being.
Focus on cultivating, comprehending the Azure Sea Sky Sword, and Law Technique.
