Chapter 55: The Woman in Blue
"Where did the Demon Insect Breeding Manual come from?"

Qi Ping was surprised when he heard Sister Nan's words.

He didn't expect that just as he was about to ask this question, Sister Nan would answer it herself.

"Yes, that's the source of the demon insect breeding manual." Sister Nan nodded in affirmation.

Facing Sister Nan's question, Qi Ping did not beat around the bush, but said frankly:
"Of course I did. If Sister Nan didn't mention it, I would have asked you about it. This is really important to me..."

"You guys are honest when you speak."

Sister Nan looked at Qi Ping meaningfully, and then continued:
"This manual on cultivating demon insects comes from Peak No. 7 in Area A. There is an extremely secret cave there. I discovered it by accident ten years ago when I was still a child."

"Number 7, Area A, Yunwu Mountain Range?"

Qi Ping was a little surprised. The first ten peaks in Area A are the places with the richest spiritual energy in the entire Yunwu Mountains. Those who can rent there are either cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage or people with backgrounds in the three major families or the Qingyuan Sect. Sister Nan actually lived there when she was a child?

This made Qi Ping even more suspicious about Sister Nan's identity, but he didn't ask too much. He wouldn't ask unless Sister Nan said it herself.

"Yes, it is there. My strength at that time could only obtain a small part of the inheritance."

"I was not strong enough to open the inheritance at that time. When you are stronger and more confident, you can find a way to rent the place and explore. Although I did not encounter any danger at that time, it is better to act cautiously."

"And this is the specific location map of the cave, and the token to open it."

Sister Nan said as she handed a map and an ancient jade shaped like a silkworm to Qi Ping.

Qi Ping didn't act pretentiously, but took it solemnly.

[Spiritual Beast Cultivation: Demonic Insects] already has such an effect. If the complete inheritance is obtained, it may not be impossible for the Golden Marrow Bee to break through the Golden Core or even a higher level.

Maybe we can also obtain methods for breeding other types of spiritual beasts.

But this gift is really valuable, and Qi Ping feels that it may not be easy to repay this friendship.

"Thank you very much, Sister Nan, for your gift this time. If Sister Nan needs anything in the future, I will definitely not refuse to help her to the best of my ability!" Qi Ping promised solemnly.

"When you have the combat power of the Golden Core Stage, Sister Nan might be willing to ask you to do something within your ability. Before that, let's just live well in this hellish world... I always feel that in the coming chaos, even if I build my foundation, I may not be able to save my life."

……

After discussing the matter about the demon insect breeding manual, Sister Nan spent another night on Peak No. 7 at Qi Ping's request, and was allowed to go back only after confirming that there was no danger.

Before Sister Nan left, Qi Ping gave her a portion of golden marrow honey.

Sister Nan glanced at Qi Ping and did not refuse, but nodded to accept it. At this time, she already had full trust in Qi Ping, so there was no need for her to say some polite words.

After watching Sister Nan leave, Qi Ping didn't think too much, but returned to his previous regular life of farming and beekeeping.

Cultivate blood ginseng, blast out high-speed ring-cutting bees + black-armored bees + poisonous bees, and prepare to break through the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Qi Ping was about to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining. He planned to wait until he broke through the fourth level and the number of High-Speed Ring-Cutting Bees reached about 700. Then he would go to Qingshi Market to buy spirit beasts and fire spirit grass. If possible, Qi Ping also wanted to see if he had a chance to get a spirit beast bag.

After this crisis with the black-robed monk, Qi Ping's worried mood gradually calmed down.

Now that he has the Wilderness Transformation as his greatest life-saving reliance, he is no longer so afraid of the calamity cultivators, the demon insects, or the undercurrents in the Qingtian Realm.

Anyway, I have the confidence to save my life, and I can just develop the farming slowly.
Three days later. "The body of the black-robed monk and the blood-stained soil have all been removed, and the burial ground has been planted with flowers."

"We have also transformed into bees to explore the terrain near the Yunwu Mountains. Many places have chaotic terrain and abundant vegetation. Once hundreds of high-speed ring-cutting bees completely disperse, even the Foundation Establishment cultivators will probably not be able to track them."

"In this way, as long as I don't commit suicide on my own initiative, I don't have to worry too much about my own safety."

"The next goal is to use the contracted animal partner to obtain a talent similar to the Red Flame Tiger's [Red Flame], or a talent similar to the Blue Lotus Spirit's [Lotus Body]."

"At least you have to reach the advanced level of the first stage, preferably the lower level of the second stage or above. With such a talent, the difficulty of breaking through the foundation will be much lower, and the foundation can be laid more solidly."

Because his own talent is too low, Qi Ping can only consider using this method to improve his talent.

For example, the Red Flame Tiger's talent [Red Flame] is the most powerful talent of the Red Flame Demon Tiger. If Qi Ping can obtain such a talent, practicing the "Wood Flame Art" will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort, and it can also make the foundation more solid and stable.

At least during the Qi Refining Stage, the [Red Flame] talent is enough to ensure that Qi Ping can walk on flat ground, and it can even play a certain role in breaking through the Foundation Establishment Stage or after the foundation is established.

In addition, Qi Ping gradually discovered that plant energy is not equal to wood-attributed spiritual energy, because plants are also divided into five elements, some spiritual plants belong to wood, some spiritual plants belong to fire, and some belong to water.
So on this basis, as long as they are in the forest, the druid's control over plant energy can, to a certain extent, enhance the ability of the spiritual roots to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but the spiritual roots still need to be used as a foundation.

Therefore, both the wood and fire elements can serve as the foundation for Qi Ping's practice.

……

However, just as Qi Ping switched from bee form back to human form, put on his clothes and prepared to continue cultivating blood ginseng, a high-speed ring-cutting bee appeared hurriedly beside Qi Ping's ear.

It was said that a woman with a very powerful aura appeared at the foot of the mountain and was heading up the mountain.

Based on the description of the high-speed ring-cutting bee, Qi Ping quickly captured the specific information.

The ninth level of Qi Refining, a woman in green, and a disciple of Qingyuan Sect
Inner disciple of Qingyuan Sect!
This information made Qi Ping's expression change.

So, he hurriedly collected all the elixirs in the blood ginseng cultivation ground into the storage bag, and then asked the high-speed ring-cutting bees to immediately transport them to deep underground in the deep forest and hide them.

Qi Ping had rehearsed this process many times, so he completed it within a few breaths.

Then Qi Ping immediately transformed into a high-speed ring-cutting bee and left.

Qi Ping had no intention of contacting the inner disciples of Qingyuan Sect.

Who knows whether contact will bring disaster or misfortune?

So Qi Ping planned to wait until the woman left before changing back.

But what the woman in green did next completely confused Qi Ping.

For almost the entire day, the green-clothed woman from the Qingyuan Sect was pacing around Peak No. 7 with a black compass in her hand, refusing to leave.

Qi Ping could only maintain the state of a high-speed ring-cutting bee and be ready to escape or fight at any time.

Fortunately, he had already made preparations to hide the Golden Marrow Bees. Now, except for the High-Speed Ring-Cut Bees, all the Golden Marrow Bees are hiding in extremely deep underground caves, and they have dug long underground passages so that they can escape at any time.

In addition, the high-speed ring-cutting bees are also ready to fight at any time...
