Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points

Qin Niu swung his Ink Blade, executing the Sweeping Martial Technique.

However, these Corpse Bees had incredibly strong evasion capabilities and swiftly dodged with a swoosh.

Only the Corpse Bee being controlled by Fourth and the ant swarm foolishly stayed in place and was bisected by his strike.

The Red-eyed Golden Toad in Qin Niu’s basket flicked its tongue out and also successfully captured a Corpse Bee.

It directly swallowed it into its stomach.

Being immune to all poison, it wasn’t afraid of the Corpse Bee’s Poison Stinger at all.

After eating one, the Red-eyed Golden Toad, having tasted sweetness, immediately waited for another attack from the swarm of Corpse Bees.

There were about a hundred of them.

A single charge would result in a loss of about two bees.

Adding on to the seven or eight Qin Niu had killed before, nearly ten Corpse Bees had been lost.

Elder Jiu Yin, while battling Deputy City Lord Bai, was also observing the battle outside the ring.

Discovering that his Corpse Bees failed to bring down that young Insect Master, he too was secretly surprised.

“I didn’t expect your Black Tiger Gang to have some outstanding young Insect Masters! But even if he is powerful, he will become nothing but bones in front of my Fire Ants,” he thought.

Elder Jiu Yin had absolute confidence in his insects.

All his insect swarms put together could challenge an entire army.

No matter how strong that young Insect Master of the Black Tiger Gang was, he couldn’t resist the attack of millions, tens of millions of Fire Ants.

Master He Shan’s Golden Armored Centipede was undeniably powerful, but after battling Elder Jiu Yin’s Fire Ant Army, it had suffered heavy losses.

Even the Hundred-Eyed Golden Centipede was no match for the Fire Ant Army.

In a one-on-one fight, the Hundred-Eyed Golden Centipede could easily eliminate any Fire Ant. But even a brave man cannot withstand a multitude of wolves, capable of killing one ant but not a hundred, not a thousand.

As they surged forward, had Master He Shan not acted quickly and promptly retracted the Hundred-Eyed Golden Centipede, it might have actually been in danger.

In the hands of a formidable Insect Master, seemingly weak insects can perform miracles.

Who could have thought that a swarm of Grade Three and Four Fire Ants could easily annihilate a fearsome Hundred-Eyed Golden Centipede?

Qin Niu’s Termite Army had already engaged with the Fire Ants.

The ferocity of the Termites was enough to make the majority of fierce ants submit.

At this moment, they fought fiercely with the Fire Ant Army like wolves and tigers, tearing into each other with fervor.

Trained and well-coordinated, the Termites worked together seamlessly.

Qin Niu had yet to release his Puppet Ants and Ghost Ants into the battle.

Because he wanted to kill a few more Corpse Bees.

These were valuable creatures.

Although the Fire Ant Army was numerous and strong, from the battle so far, it seemed highly unlikely that they could annihilate the Termite Army an endeavor harder than reaching the heavens.

At least their numerical advantage had yet to be displayed.

“Puppet Ants, capture the Corpse Bees. Ghost Ants, focus fire and bring down the Corpse Bees. Eliminate them as quickly as possible,” Qin Niu ordered his battle deployment.

The swarm attacked once more, and this time two Corpse Bees suddenly struggled painfully and fell from the sky, while another flew in front of Qin Niu and stopped moving.

Qin Niu didn’t hesitate to be hospitable.

He swung his blade repeatedly, dealing with all three Corpse Bees.

The gluttonous Red-eyed Golden Toad seized the opportunity to catch one as well.

In one round, four Corpse Bees were taken down.

Qin Niu couldn’t help but smile at this efficient outcome, while Elder Jiu Yin, engaged in battle with Deputy City Lord Bai, shivered inwardly.

The cultivation of Corpse Bees was extremely difficult; losing four in one go, what kind of monster had they encountered?

That Qin Niu’s Ghost Ants could actually bring down two Corpse Bees at once was truly impressive.

This also indicated one thing.

Controlling a single Corpse Bee was more difficult.

If it was just a pure Mental Attack to bring them down, that would be much easier.

In just a moment, a total of sixteen Corpse Bees were dismembered. Except for those eaten by the Red-eyed Golden Toad, the rest were all collected by Qin Niu into his bag.

It was now half full.

Hefting it in hand felt substantial, as a single Corpse Bee was large and not light in weight.

“Hehe, this rate of harvest is quite nice,” he chuckled.

In the past, catching one of Old Master Huang’s Corpse Bee generals would have made his day.

Now, these bee generals seem to have lost their value.

He could harvest four at a time.

He estimated that within a few encounters, all of the hundred-plus Corpse Bees would be taken down by him.

“Go, bite him to death!”

Elder Jiu Yin, refusing to believe in curses, drove the remaining Corpse Bees, ready to sacrifice them all in one final gambit.

Just to kill Qin Niu.

Because his Fire Ants were blocked by the Termite Army, they currently couldn’t threaten Qin Niu’s safety.

A swarm of Corpse Bees fearlessly lunged toward Qin Niu.

They each fiercely crashed against his protective Qi shield.

But Qin Niu had long since steadied his cultivation at the Innate Realm and easily activated his King Pig Leather Armor without expending much effort. Although the attacks of these Corpse Bees were fierce, they couldn’t harm him in the least.

On the contrary, because they were close, it was convenient for the Termites and the Red-eyed Golden Toads to attack.

Up until now, Xiao Niu still seemed very calm.

And no Corpse Bee dared to attack him.

All beings between heaven and earth have their sense of spirit.

These Corpse Bees should sense that Xiao Nui’s strength is formidable. After all, even the Grade Seven Red-eyed Golden Toad is somewhat fearful of Green Ox.

In just a moment, the large group of Corpse Bees was decimated, with less than half remaining.

“Don’t run, come back for more!”

Qin Niu was having a great time killing, when those Corpse Bees suddenly retreated and fled.

They must have been recalled by Elder Jiu Yin.

Elder Jiu Yin wasn’t a fool, seeing that the situation was hopeless, naturally he wouldn’t let the Corpse Bees continue to die in vain.

“Bai Xuezhu probably won’t be able to hold on much longer. Let’s focus our forces to take down Bai Xuezhu first, and then deal with that brat afterward.” With more than half of Elder Jiu Yin’s Corpse Bees dead, he felt a deep pain in his heart.

Seeing that his two insect groups couldn’t take down Qin Niu, he simply stopped concerning himself with Qin Niu for the time being, instead concentrating his efforts on dealing with Deputy City Lord Bai.

Boom, boom!

Energy blasted in all directions, the fog was swept away like by a fierce wind, revealing the battle inside.

Three high-ranking members of the Nine Insect Gang were seen besieging Deputy City Lord Bai.

The old man in the center, with long white eyebrows and a vicious gaze, had a sinister expression. He was clearly no kind soul.

The two guards beside him, both wearing Treasure Armor and wielding longswords, one male and one female, looked quite young. On their sword tips, there was nearly half a foot of Sword Qi bursting out.

Qin Niu watched in secret awe.

Such might was already comparable to him exerting his full strength with the Ink Blade.

It seems that cultivation is the key.

No matter how formidable the weapon, without sufficient cultivation, one simply cannot unleash its proper power.

He was certain that his Ink Blade was definitely stronger than the swords of these two people.

But his cultivation was much weaker than the two, so the Blade Qi he could evoke from the Ink Blade was of equal intensity to their Sword Qi.

Moreover, these two people’s swords must not be ordinary weapons; they likely were on par with the Ink Blade when it had just begun to manifest a hint of Sword Qi.

They too belonged to nurtured spiritual weapons with achievements.

On the ground, Qin Niu’s Termites were fiercely fighting the Fire Ants.

A few Termites were injured or killed.

But there were more Fire Ant corpses on the ground.

What shocked Qin Niu the most were those hundred-plus Zombie Ants.

They too had entered the fray amongst the Fire Ant Army.

Not a single one had died; instead, around them were hordes of Fire Ants, which seemed to have been bitten by them and had undergone assimilation.

They fought alongside the hundred-plus Zombie Ants like puppets.

The Fire Ants that had been bitten by them also saw some being assimilated.

However, their assimilative abilities were obviously not as powerful as the Zombie Ants’.

Too strong!
