In the valley.
Xue Ying, who was getting familiar with his body, opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Yun falling in the distance.
He jumped up very skillfully. It turned into a stream of blood in the air and gathered around Jiang Yun's neck, forming a bloody necklace. Now he has completely transformed his body and has officially been promoted to the late stage of Nascent Soul.
Jiang Yun, who returned to the underground cave again, had time to find the queen bee and learn more about it.
He used a small beam of light to illuminate the cave. When he found that the countless black eyes in the bee pupae were staring at him intently, he felt numb and turned off the light, chatting with the queen bee with the help of his soul.
"Master." The queen bee spoke again, her voice still soft and sweet, which was actually a bit seductive.
"What is your strength now?" he asked.
"My body is in the middle stage of Yuanying, and the strength of my soul should be in the late stage of Yuanying." The queen bee said truthfully, which was also consistent with what his soul had detected.
"Then why are most of the bees you produce top-notch golden elixirs, and only two or three in the early stage of Yuanying?" Jiang Yun curiously pointed to the bees in the distance, but none of them were in the middle stage of Yuanying. .
Why does it seem a little different from the rumors that the queen bee produces a large number of daughter bees of the same realm and looks at them with disdain?
"Go back to the master." The queen bee said aggrievedly, "Bees that produce eggs need to consume a lot of energy, especially those with high levels of production, which need to accumulate nutrients for a long time before they can produce one. By the time I reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, I was already over 20 years old. Years ago, we only managed to save two early-stage Nascent Soul queens."
"Twenty years?" Jiang Yun's expression changed slightly. He was only twenty years old, which meant that the Queen Bee was in the middle stage of Nascent Soul twenty years ago before she was born?
"Yes." The queen bee squirmed and explained, "As the realm gets higher, the consumption of producing low-level daughter bees will be smaller. Even these golden elixir stage daughter bees are all I have saved little by little over the years. from."
"Is there any way for you to quickly accumulate enough nutrients to produce a few mid-stage Nascent Soul bees?" He finally felt that a group of Jindanzi bees were somewhat inconsistent with his ideas, and wanted to see if he could help get something for the queen. Supplement.
"Eat elixirs, eat spiritual grass, and eat spiritual stones." The queen bee was very direct, "I can absorb their essence and use these essences to reproduce."
"Spiritual stones?" He still had less than 300 spiritual stones on his body, so he asked, "How many spiritual stones does a bee in the middle stage of Nascent Soul need?"
"With my current strength, the bees in the acquired realm can produce a lot with their own spiritual energy. In the golden elixir stage, the bees below the top golden elixir no longer have very strong combat power. Starting from the daughter bees of the top golden elixir, one You only need to eat ten spirit stones. In the early stage of Yuanying, you need about fifty spirit stones. In the middle stage of Yuanying, you need at least one hundred spirit stones." Zifeng looked at his master expectantly, hoping that the master would take out piles of spirit stones with a wave of his hand. Shi let him eat.
The corner of Jiang Yun's mouth twitched. His current worth only allowed him to produce two mid-stage Nascent Soul bees. Ten bees in the middle stage of Nascent Soul are equivalent to a thousand spirit stones. If you want to cover the whole world with bees in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, it would probably cost tens of thousands of spirit stones?
Oh My God!
I'm afraid I'll have to spend a lot of money on beekeeping next...
For a moment, he wanted to give this thing to Huo Xiaoyu, but he didn't want to keep it anymore.
"Master, in fact, the Shadowless Bees are still very useful to you." Until then, the formation spirit suddenly reminded, "To others, they may be just a group of thugs, but to you, they have another use."
"tell me the story."
"You can use the bees as formation flags and the bees as weapons to set up the formation. You only need to carve the formations on the bees, and then connect them with spiritual stones or your own aura, and they will become mobile and growable formation flags. "The formation spirit analyzed, "In the future, you won't need any formation spiritual weapons like your sword umbrella, so just spend the money saved on the Shadowless Bees."
"Can it still be like this?" His eyes lit up. If Zifeng could really have the function of a formation flag, it would indeed be extremely useful to him. It makes sense if you think about it carefully. Zi Feng's physical strength is not stronger than low-grade spiritual weapons? You can also think of ways to avoid attacks on your own, and you can also spread out to form a team.
He immediately waved his hand and took out a hundred spirit stones, "I don't have that much money at the moment. Let's get two more early Nascent Souls to make up five. I'll figure out a way to deal with the money."
"Yes, it will only take a few days for me to absorb these spiritual stones and produce brood bees." The Queen Bee happily looked at the hundred spiritual stones and put them away with a storage spiritual weapon. She had also hunted some passing by. They are demon cultivators or human cultivators, so they have their own storage spiritual weapons.
As for how many days it will take, Jiang Yun naturally understands that it takes time to absorb and produce bees. It is impossible to eat a spiritual stone one second and give birth to a bee the next second.
"I'll take you out of here next." He was in trouble again, "How can you become smaller with such a big body?"
The demon cultivator should be able to grow larger, smaller, and change shape, which is certainly not a problem in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
"Of course it's okay." I saw the queen bee gradually changing, her fat body began to become smaller, and her body even began to show some human characteristics. After a while, a palm-sized little bee girl appeared in front of her. Except for her wings, the little bee girl still had some fluff on her body and the poisonous needles on her butt. She was just a miniature human being.
"If you become like this, you can only practice and eat, but you can't give birth to bees." The queen bee landed on his shoulder cutely, as if it had not changed for too long and she was not familiar with this body.
"It's okay." After Jiang Yun said this, he was in trouble again. The queen bee is easy to deal with, but what should we do with these daughter bees? "Can't Zion transform?"
The Queen Bee shook her head when she heard the question, "They don't have the ability to transform. Master, if you want to take them away, you can only buy a beast bag spiritual weapon."
Jiang Yun knew that the beast bag was specially used for some human monks to store their demon cultivator companions. The price was usually the same as the storage spiritual weapon. He used the extra storage spiritual weapon on his body to exchange for a medium-grade spiritual weapon. The beast's bag must not have been replaced.
At this time, he curiously looked at the amber under the queen bee after she got up. He had noticed before that there seemed to be something in the amber under the queen bee, but it was covered by the queen bee's huge body and he could not see it. arrive.
Now if I look carefully, I see a strange-looking bee!
"What is this stuff?"
He found that there seemed to be a bee imprisoned in the amber, and the bee looked even more ferocious and terrifying in its light.
"Mighty Bee!" the formation spirit exclaimed, "This is a Mighty Bee, but it's either a mother bee or a daughter bee."
"Mighty Bee?" Jiang Yun was surprised. He asked the queen bee curiously, "Where did you find this thing?"
As if the queen bee had discovered a treasure, she hurriedly flew out and spread it on the amber again, fearing that Jiang Yun would snatch her beloved thing away. "I happened to find this under here, so I have been living here, and I have been looking for it." See if there are other Mighty Bees. I can feel the power of his bloodline. As long as I absorb a few more, my bloodline will be further improved."
"Bloodline improvement?" Jiang Yun suddenly realized that indeed, the level of the Mighty Bee was too high, including the Shadowless Bee, so the daughter bees of the Mighty Bee were still very attractive to the queen. No wonder the queen stays here, that's why.
"I see it's all shriveled up. I'm afraid you've finished eating it, right?" He looked at the withered corpse of the Bee Bee in silence as it was being put away lovingly by the Queen Bee. He always felt a little creepy.
Next, Jiang Yun quickly went to Fengzheng City and sold all the spiritual weapons on his body, including the blood sickle, and exchanged them for nearly 700 low-grade spiritual stones and a medium-grade spiritual weapon.
It’s not that I don’t know. In addition to the three daughter wasps in the early stage of Nascent Soul, including those who have not emerged from the bee pupae, the queen bee actually has a full 700 top golden elixir daughter bees. I haven’t seen any weaker ones. .
After returning to the mine, he finally got rid of trivial matters, explained Huo Xiaoyu's situation to the patrol supervisor, and then practiced with peace of mind.
Let the queen bee eat the spirit stones slowly by herself, while he took six top golden elixir bees and studied them. If this thing can replace the sword umbrella to set up the formation, it will be very useful for me. There is no need to update any spiritual weapons, just cultivate the queen bee and daughter bees.
When he thought that it had taken decades for the queen bee to improve her realm, he had a headache at first. To improve the queen bee's realm, she needed all kinds of natural and earthly treasures. Thinking about the huge cost of laying bees, it gave me another headache. How much would the spirit stones cost?
Fortunately, he gradually understood the Zifeng formation after trying it out.
"Before, I used the power of the soul to bind the sword umbrella, and the spiritual energy came out of me to set up the formation." He looked at the six bees that successfully formed the formation in front of him, "Now, I use the queen bee controlled by the slave seal to set up the formation. Controlling, the spiritual energy comes from the queen bee, after all, the connection between the child bees and the queen bee is innate."
"Fortunately, the slave seal is strong enough to allow me and the Queen Bee's soul control to be almost synchronized, without any lag in the command."
"In this case, I only need to give the queen bee enough spiritual energy in the future. It is equivalent to the queen bee being the core of the sword umbrella and the child bees being the formation tools. And the spiritual energy does not need to come from me. If the queen bee has no spiritual energy, I will give it to her. She makes up for it." The more Jiang Yun thought about it, the brighter his eyes became. The advantage of not using his own spiritual energy was that after finishing a set of formation combos, he was still in full condition.
Even if you don't use the Ziongs to set up a formation, you can still set up a battle formation for them so that they can coordinate the charge more tacitly.
"A bit perverted."
Three months later.
Huo Xiaoyu, who had completely recovered from his injuries, came to Jiang Yun.
The two did not go into the warehouse to chat, but found a private room in a teahouse on the block.
"Is your injury okay?" he asked.
"It's completely healed." Huo Xiaoyu looked at him gratefully, "Not only is the injury healed, but the drop of spiritual milk has a very strong healing effect on the soul's injuries, and combined with the soul-sealing ice, my soul has grown to a certain extent." Get up, but it’s a blessing in disguise.”
"That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay.
"Thank you very much this time. When I was chatting with Jiao Liguo, I learned that that thing cost you a thousand spirit stones." Huo Xiaoyu said gratefully, "For this reason, I made you, Senior Xu Tu and Senior Liu agree to other Require."
"It's nothing." Jiang Yun shook his head and told her not to take it to heart. It's not a big sacrifice in the first place. If the money is gone, you can make it again, and your time can be used for meditation. It's not like you have to sacrifice your life. .
"I may not have many spiritual stones on my body, but I will return the rest to you slowly." Huo Xiaoyu said, handing over two hundred spiritual stones to make up for it.
However, Jiang Yun refused to accept it, "If you do this, I will drive you away. This is what I say as a team. You and I, monks, just find ways to make money when the money is gone. Friendship is priceless. Besides, I was not prepared enough to let you down this time." It's only right that I pay for your injuries."
The two sides were in a stalemate, and finally Huo Xiaoyu pursed his lips and put away the spirit stone.
"I originally wanted to accompany them to the East China Sea on your behalf, but Senior Jiao Ning refused and said that the Formation Master is better." Huo Xiaoyu whispered, "Maybe they have other intentions. It is always dangerous outside, so be careful along the way. .”
"Don't worry, following Senior Jiao Ning, no matter how dangerous it is, it's still much less dangerous than wandering alone."
Jiang Yun saw her apology and comforted her, then changed the subject and said, "There is something I would like to ask your opinion on."
