Chapter 84 - 79: The First Level 3 Termite i



The night was already deep.

After bathing and changing his clothes, Qin Niu came to the backyard to maintain his treasured sword and cultivate.

This had essentially become his daily routine.

Unfortunately, All Niu was still evolving and it was still uncertain when he would complete his evolution. Otherwise, with him as a guide freely entering and leaving the domain of the Ancient Banyan Tree, that would be truly exhilarating.

The twentyfold cultivation speed was simply too enchanting.

Time flew by swiftly.

A night of cultivation passed in the blink of an eye.

His cultivation level increased by about 4 points, now cultivating for an hour roughly increased it by 1 point.

If it were under the Ancient Banyan Tree, that would be a bit terrifying, with an increase of 20 points in cultivation level per hour.

He stood up and took out his treasured sword to inspect it.

The green lines within the sword blade had become clearer and more stable. He tried swinging the sword through the air, and a thread of blade qi was exceptionally dazzling in the faint morning light.

“The blade qi has grown a bit stronger,” he remarked.

But its consumption of Banyan Tree Blood was way too fast, the blood in the stone trough had already turned transparent, like clear water.

He hoped All Niu would complete his evolution soon, otherwise, the Banyan Tree Blood could support at most three or four more days before running out completely.

He looked at the two Jin Chan he had caught yesterday, immediately went back to the room to fetch the cage, and checked it.

He saw that the number of Jin Chan inside the cage had doubled from two to four.

Two of them were empty shells.

Both Jin Chan had successfully molted last night and completed their metamorphosis.

Now, if he opened the cage, they would definitely take flight flapping their wings.

Qin Niu carefully observed the male Jin Chan, reassessing it.

At the moment, it was searching for an exit in the cage, looking to escape.

To make it emit its chirp, Qin Niu brought over a small wooden stick and deliberately teased it.

“Chee…”

A husky, cracked sound emerged, not at all loud and clear.

However, Qin Niu’s eyes lit up slightly.

The chirp just issued by the male Jin Chan was piercing to the ear and uncomfortable to listen to.

He tried to tease it again with the stick.

“Chee chee…”

Its chirp was still hoarse; to the ears, it was nothing but irritating, making one wish to slap it dead.

[Male Jin Chan, health status excellent, lifespan around 7 days, special ability (emit a piercing chirp, significantly increasing the probability of being discovered by predators.)]

Insect Identification +0.1.

Qin Niu had successfully identified this Jin Chan.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that identifying a special insect increased the skill proficiency tenfold.

Identifying a common insect, Insect Identification skill proficiency +0.01, but this time it increased by 0.1.

Only the special ability of this male Jin Chan really broadened his horizons.

It was more like a self-sabotage skill.

Almost all wild animals go to great lengths to reduce the probability of being discovered by predators, but this male Jin Chan took the path less traveled, doing the exact opposite.

Was it complaining that its life was not short enough?

Capturing an insect with a special ability was truly too difficult.

After so much pain and effort, digging at least two hundred cicada pupae, he finally managed to catch two Jin Chan that were different from the rest.

And the result? Its special skill turned out to be self-sabotaging.

Short-lived, with a lousy special skill, how much could it sell for?

He had been hoping to sell it for one or two Silver Money to buy a Low-grade Contract Charm.

As for buying other cultivation resources, he dared not even think about it now.

He looked at the female Jin Chan.

One could see that its abdomen had one more stripe than the male Jin Chan, vastly similar.

The female Jin Chan doesn’t chirp; it only lays eggs.

The special ability of these two Jin Chan should be the same.

The probability of the female Jin Chan laying offspring with a self-sabotaging skill is not small.

Its lifespan is around 10 days.

Its health status is very good.

Insect Identification +0.1.

He was thoroughly lost for words. The two Jin Chan he had high hopes for were just this sort of thing; forget about selling them for one or two Silver Money, even ten Wen Money each might not fetch a buyer.

Seeing their anxious manner, he simply put the two Jin Chan together in a cage.

The male Jin Chan, upon seeing the female, immediately vibrated its wings emitting a shrill, ear-piercing chirp.

Qin Niu picked two fresh tender leaves to feed them.

Jin Chan most enjoy sucking the juice from plant tender leaves.

Listening to the male Jin Chan incessantly screeching, Qin Niu felt even more disgusted. After finishing the last meal of bear meat and feeding a bit to the little turtle, he put on his basket, took Xiao Niu, and headed directly into the mountains.

More than two days had passed, and the newly cultivated White Termites had basically completed their evolution.

Let’s go take a look.

“All Niu!

Passing by Wang Furen’s house, Wang Wanyan’s call came from the attic.

He looked up, and her eyes were a bit red and swollen.

She must have cried very sadly yesterday.

Seeing her woeful and pitiful appearance, Qin Niu couldn’t help but feel pity.

“Is there something you need?” he asked.

He knew that Wang Wanyan may have been aware that he would be leaving in the morning, so she had opened her window early, waiting.

If she was looking for him, it definitely was important.

Wang Wanyan looked around, and, seeing no one else, she threw a paper ball to Qin Niu.

“Right now, you’re the only one who can help me. If you agree, just nod your head. If not, pretend 1 never asked,” she said softly.

Qin Niu unfolded the paper ball, quickly reading the words it contained.

After reading, he nodded at Wang Wanyan.

In an instant, a hint of a smile emerged on her delicate and sorrowful face.

“Thank you!”

She thanked Qin Niu.

“This is getting awkward!”

Qin Niu, with Xiao Nui, quickly left.

Shortly after his departure, Wang Furen emerged from the house, staring at Qin Niu’s retreating figure in confusion.

“What kind of riddle are these two playing at?”

Clearly, Wang Furen had been keeping an eye on his daughter’s conversation with Qin Niu.

But he had no idea what agreement they had reached.

After heading up the mountain, Qin Niu made straight for the Ant Nest.

“Come on out, everyone!”

Each time he visited, he would inspect the ‘forces,’ finding solace in the ever-growing and strengthening ant colony.

It was just a pity that the Ant Queen would only lay 100 eggs a day for a few more days; from laying to hatching, then the larva transforming into an adult, it took over twenty days. He still needed to patiently wait.

For now, the number of ants added to the colony each day was still around ten.

The two Ghost Soldier Ants standing guard at the entrance to the nest automatically made way for him.

Strangely enough, half the day passed without a single Termite emerging.

Qin Niu had checked the attributes of the ant colony before heading up the mountain and confirmed that there were no problems.

Just as he was about to investigate, he saw a Termite covered in strange dark green patterns slowly crawl out.

It had only one antenna.

Its size seemed to be even larger than a Grade Two Tiger-striped Ironclad Ant, even surpassing the size of the Black Poisonous Ants.

The patterns on its body were very different from the Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier and Ironclad Ants.

They were significantly more complex and much darker in color.

Especially the dark green patterns on its head, which looked like a simple and rustic Talisman.

The entire body even shimmered with a metallic luster.

The two Ghost Soldier Ants seemed to hold it in great awe, prostrating themselves on the ground, daring not to move.

“Fourth! Have you finally completed your evolution?”

Qin Niu recognized at a glance that it was Fourth.

“Master!”

Communicating with him seemed a bit strenuous for Fourth.

“I understand, you just finished evolving and still need a bit of time to stabilize your newfound realm. Don’t worry, just stay here and don’t move.”

Fourth was now clearly the king of all ants in the colony.

No wonder the ant colony hadn’t come out.

Having just completed his evolution, Fourth moved slowly. With him not coming out, which Termite would dare to step out in front of him?

Following Fourth were the Grade Two Tiger-striped Ironclad Ant and a new type of Soldier Ant that was shiny black all over.

Although Termites could also be black, Qin Niu’s brood was white.

Now, the appearance of an all-over shiny black Soldier Ant was unexpected. At first glance, one might even think an enemy spy had infiltrated.

Its abdomen was much longer than that of an ordinary Soldier Ant.

If I’m not mistaken, this is currently the only poisonous ant in the ant colony.

Currently, there are only two termites in the entire colony that have venomous capabilities, namely Fourth and the Poison Soldier Ant.

Qin Niu promptly checked the ant colony’s attributes again.

Qin Niu looked at the two newly evolved termite species and felt nothing but admiration.

Fourth gave him an enormous surprise by evolving directly from a Grade One termite into a Grade Three.

Moreover, it belonged to an extremely rare species.

He already knew it was extraordinary, but he never expected that after undergoing a life and death transformation, it would become so powerful.

Before its evolution, the strongest in the entire colony was the Grade Two Tiger-striped Ironclad Ant, but now, in terms of special abilities, the Grade Two Dark Poison Ant and the Grade Two Tiger-striped Ironclad Ant were comparable.

Fourth became the absolute king of all ants, and all these special termites added together might not even be a match for it.

It was incredibly powerful.

The skills that enhanced the combat power of the Grade Two Tiger-striped Ironclad Ant and the Grade Two Tiger-striped Ants were Frenzy.

Fourth, on the other hand, went straight to Demonization.

Furthermore, its venom evolution was also fascinating; it had transformed into Soul Eroding Poison.

It seemed that it didn’t have a poison sac or sting, but instead, it administered its venom to enemies through biting.

I wonder just how potent this Soul Eroding Poison really is?

Qin Niu spends all his days nestled in the mountains and valleys without competing with other Insect Masters. However, given the chance, he might find a large centipede or a big spider to test it out.

Another interesting change was the plus sign after its Medium Intelligence.

It probably meant that its intelligence had improved.

Perhaps one day, it could possess high intelligence like that of humans.

I’ve heard that when monsters and spirits reach a certain level of cultivation, their intelligence is not inferior to that of humans.
