Chapter 101 Sun Mingzeng's Retreat (Please Subscribe, Please Bookmark)
"Open" The token in Sun Mingsheng's hand spurted out a fiery red light, and an invisible light shield outside the cave house melted little by little like snow encountering the sun.
Sun Mingsheng strode into it. The layout of the entire cave house was relatively reasonable. There was a large hall at the entrance, and there were small special rooms on both sides at intervals, namely: spirit beast room, training room, living room, and utility room.
The spirit beast room was specially made by special means, and it happened to be used as a temporary nest for black-striped ants.
The black-striped ants that were exchanged from Yuquan Mountain at the beginning, after years of cultivation, the queen ant has successfully promoted to the first-class upper grade, and the scale of the entire ant colony has exceeded 10,000, and it looks like a black mass at first glance.
The grade of the black-striped ant queen is of course extremely important, but the number is also an indispensable factor. They are a special group that relies on numbers to win.
Thanks to the fact that Sun Mingsheng invested a lot of monster blood and flesh and semi-finished talismans in the process of drawing talismans in the past period of time, some newly hatched black-striped ants have already shown traces of blood-red lines on their bodies, which have produced a little bit of mutation, and there is a certain difference from other black-striped ants.
Whether this mutation is good or bad, it needs to be explored one by one in the future. There is no doubt that this group of black-striped ants can provide it with some help.
"If the queen ant has the opportunity to be promoted to the second level in the future, the number of the entire black-striped ant group will exceed 100,000, which can be called a killer." Sun Mingsheng has always had great expectations for the black-striped ants that have reached a limit in number.
As the number of black-striped ants increases, the various spiritual objects he needs to provide have not increased. Under the command of the queen ant, these little guys appear in groups at different locations in Shenquan Mountain to hunt and kill various first-level demon insects for food.
As the base camp of the family, Shenquan Mountain has a large number of spiritual fields and spiritual medicine gardens, and planted various spiritual rice and spiritual medicines of different grades.
In this process, there are naturally some low-level monster insects that feed on it. These monster insects are extremely small and reproduce quickly. Once a large-scale outbreak occurs, it will be a big threat to the spiritual rice and spiritual medicine gardens.
These monster insects are just barely promoted to the first-grade lower grade, and they lack combat power. However, they are excellent blood food for black-striped ants.
The queen ant and some black-striped ants that have been promoted to the first-grade upper grade are naturally provided by him with some high-quality blood food to improve their combat power as much as possible.
Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a moment, the same principle applies to raising black-striped ants. Once in danger, except for the queen ant, the remaining ant colonies can be sacrificed.
After placing the black-striped ants, Sun Mingsheng did not delay any longer. He sat cross-legged in the practice room and circulated the Great Zhoutian according to the requirements of the "Fiery Soul Control Jue" to refine the surrounding spiritual power for his own use.
On the one hand, he supplemented the lack of mana in the dantian, and on the other hand, he took the opportunity to adjust his breath. When his own energy and spirit were all at their peak, he began to truly refine the Fiery Blade.
Meeting Hall
"Great-grandfather, you have been away for nearly eight years this time. Have you obtained any spiritual objects to assist in foundation building?" Sun Xunmu's face was full of expectation.
He has successfully advanced to the foundation building stage, but there are still a large number of ninth-level Qi training cultivators in the family who are still waiting for the appearance of spiritual objects to assist in foundation building.
Like Sun Mingsheng, there are always a few who rely on their own strength to exchange for a foundation building spiritual object and successfully advance to the foundation building stage. Both strength and opportunity are indispensable.
"This time I left with a lot of gains, a foundation building pill, a bottle of evil water, three portions of Shutu Zhensha, a second-level top-grade three-headed snake egg, and a few old guys co-founded the Beast Control Mountain Range. I have gained a lot. I have sorted all these and stored them in the family treasury." Sun Changfeng looked older and older.
He only had about twenty years left to live. The running and fighting in the past ten years have consumed the little energy left in his body. He may not be able to continue to live for the remaining ten years.
Normally, when a cultivator is approaching the end of his life span, he will choose a place with abundant spiritual power to practice in seclusion, so as to ensure that he will be in a full state at the last moment.
If it were not for the fact that he had consumed too many resources in the family and could not break through the bottleneck and advance to the Golden Core Stage, Sun Changfeng would not have left at the last moment.
"Is your body safe? There is still a second-grade upper-grade elixir in the treasure house that can be used for breathing." Sun Xunmu couldn't help showing a trace of worry on his face.
"I am just a little tired. I can recover after breathing. There is no need to continue to waste the few elixirs in the family." Sun Changfeng refused decisively.
Seeing the oldest elder in the family working hard for the future development of the family in the last period of his life, Sun Xunmu also had a lot of feelings in his heart.
"Grandfather, the remaining life span of the old man can only support five years at most. This action is more dangerous than expected. All these spiritual medicines grow deep in the Beast Taming Mountains." After a simple arrangement, there are a full twenty second-grade upper-grade spiritual medicines.
These spiritual medicines alone are worth a considerable income, and can be easily exchanged in the market for a large number of second-level spiritual pills suitable for foundation-building cultivators to improve their cultivation.
"If the family has a second-level alchemist, the effect of these spiritual medicines will be at least doubled." Thinking of this, as the patriarch, he showed a distressed but helpless look.
Unfortunately, the five major sects of Song State strictly control the inheritance of alchemy and refining. Only some of the most shallow inheritances are circulated on the market. At most, some first-level middle and lower-grade alchemists can be cultivated, and it also requires a high price. This is also the fundamental reason why the family has never cultivated alchemists and refiners. The gains do not outweigh the losses.
Starting from the second day, Sun Xunmu began to arrange suitable cultivators to retreat and impact the foundation-building period according to the current situation of the family.
As for the selection, it is not too entangled. Everything is based on the interests of the family. The best qualifications have the right of priority.
The only dual-spiritual genius cultivator in the family, Sun Mingzeng, who is highly valued and cultivated, must be ranked in the first sequence. With the only foundation-building pill as an aid, he formally retreats to impact the foundation-building period.
The dual spirits have a natural bonus. Under the effect of the foundation-building pill, the success rate of advancing to the foundation-building stage is more than 80%.
If it weren't for the family elders' caution, even with the help of the Shutu Zhensha, there would be more than 60% chance of advancement.
A bottle of Huasha Water was used by Sun Xunkang, the second core seed player of the Xun generation, who was also a senior cultivator who had been immersed in the ninth level of Qi training for many years, to impact the foundation-building stage.
Sun Xunkang, a cultivator with three spiritual roots, has a chance of successfully advancing to the foundation-building stage of more than 40% as long as he can withstand the counterattack of the Huasha Water explosion.
As for the remaining three points of Shutu Zhensha, they are sealed in the family treasury for future generations to use.
"This time, I must advance to the foundation-building stage in seclusion. There is no retreat, and I can only succeed and not fail."
