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

Chapter 262: Chapter 255: The Indestructible Cockroach i

Master He Shan had only just realized that Qin Niu’s basket was hiding a Golden Toad.

He couldn’t help staring at it for a moment, and his appreciation and regard for the young man increased significantly.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that the level of the Golden Toad was very high.

Normally, unless the creatures are one’s own pets, one can only roughly infer the level of insects or beast pets based on factors like size, breed, and aura.

Unless one is an Appraiser, it’s difficult to accurately determine the level of this Golden Toad at a glance.

One can only roughly estimate.

“Insect Master Qin’s methods are numerous, truly keeping a low profile. These Bloodsucking Leeches are one of Elder Jiu Yin’s insects. Only Elder Jiu Yin and his chief disciples have bred this type of insect in large numbers.

If I’m not mistaken, Elder Jiu Yin is likely nearby, and you should be careful.

Many of his insects possess the ability to kill with a single strike.”

Master He Shan dealt with the Bloodsucking Locusts with ease.

He didn’t even seem to use any particular method, as the locusts lunging at him fell to the ground one by one, motionless.

They were not dead.

Instead, they curled up, maintaining a posture similar to hibernation.

The more powerful the Insect Master, the more effortless and casual they are in dealing with their enemies.

As someone capable of becoming the leader of the Insect Master’s camp, he naturally possessed formidable strength.

“All… save me, save me…”

A sudden and heart-wrenching scream came from behind.

One of Master He Shan’s soldiers, clutching his face, fell off his horse to the ground and rolled around in agony.

A Bloodsucking Leech had burrowed into his nostril, and he was clutching the end of the leech’s body tightly with his hand.

The leech was ferocious as it desperately tried to burrow deeper into the soldier’s nostril.

Despite the soldier’s considerable strength while pulling on it, the leech’s suction cup seemed terrifying, as if embedded into the soldier’s flesh, impossible to extract.

If he insisted on pulling it out forcibly, it was highly likely that a large chunk of flesh would come out with it.

“Everyone, protect your orifices and don’t let these Bloodsucking Leeches crawl inside.”

Master He Shan leaped down from a lion’s back, and within two moves, reached the soldier, only to lightly stroke the body of the leech.

The Bloodsucking Leech, which could not be removed no matter how much force was used, obediently loosened its grip and was then extracted from the soldier’s nostril by him.

It curled up its body, appearing to be in a hibernated state.

It was unclear what method Master He Shan used.

Moreover, the mobility and cultivation level Master He Shan had just displayed were extremely powerful.

Qin Niu inwardly surmised that Master He Shan’s cultivation level must be at the peak of the Innate Realm, and he had not yet reached the Spirit Qi Realm.

The biggest advantage of serving in the military was that high-level cultivation techniques, martial arts, and elixirs were all within reach.

As long as one had sufficient military achievements, almost anything could be exchanged.

In fact, the Black Tiger Gang was not solely owned by the Black Tiger Gang Leader. It was collectively owned by everyone.

Various cultivation resources and even major decisions within the gang were not solely in the hands of the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

Many issues required collective discussion.

“Hmm… hehe…”

Another soldier fell silently to the ground, desperately clutching at his throat, his expression one of pain and terror.

Who would have thought that just some Bloodsucking Locusts could be so terrifying?

With Qin Niu’s insect identification skills, he could tell that the weakest of these Bloodsucking Locusts were Grade Three, and the more powerful ones could reach around Grade Four.

No Grade Five Bloodsucking Locusts had been found yet.

But they killed as if it were a game.

Even the insect experts among the Insect Masters could hardly fend off their attacks.

If these were regular soldiers, they would probably be even less capable of opposing them.

Qin Niu gained a deeper understanding of what Zhang Banzui said: when Insect Masters rise, the world falls into chaos.

A single powerful Insect Master could completely equal a force of thousands of troops.

Master He Shan was about to go and rescue the bodyguard who had fallen to the ground, as he had already been singled out for special attention by the enemy.

Several black shadows dashed rapidly across the ground, aiming straight for Master He Shan.

Since it was already the wee hours of the morning with only a dim light, it was impossible to see clearly.

Only Qin Niu, with his cultivation at the Innate Realm and his superior vision, could barely make out seven or eight black shadows.

The size of these creatures was about that of a cup, their bodies not particularly long, probably just fourteen or fifteen centimeters.

All that could be seen was their rapid crawling on the ground.

“Lord He, be careful!”

“Protect Lord He!”

Among the bodyguards, there were some with powerful cultivation who immediately sprang into action to protect Master He Shan after detecting the dangerous insects attacking.

They all went all out to guard Master He Shan.

One of the bodyguards, who also had cultivation in the Innate Realm, swung his sword at two of the shadows.

A very faint Sword Qi could be seen.

For warriors at the Innate Realm, even ordinary weapons could exhibit Sword Qi or Blade Qi.

After all, their cultivation was there.

However, using ordinary weapons obviously couldn’t compare with Qin Niu’s Ink Blade.

Qin Niu was now wielding the Ink Blade, which could produce Blade Qi five or six inches long. Moreover, as the Ink Blade continued to evolve and level up, other special abilities would certainly appear in the future, not just Blade Qi.

Bang!

One of the shadows was hit by the sword light, but after splitting in two, it seemed unharmed, flipped over, and immediately attacked the bodyguard.

Qin Niu finally got a clear look at these insects.

Cockroaches.

The so-called indestructible ‘little strong’, extremely tenacious in their vitality.

No wonder they could survive being split in half by the Sword Qi.

The cockroach that had been cut in two moved as if unaffected.

As they scurried forward, the two halves of their bodies came together.

“It… recovered just like that?”

Qin Niu almost dropped his eyeballs in shock.

Its regenerative ability had to be at least high-grade, if not stronger.

His Demon Ants possessed the ability to heal themselves, but they couldn’t compare to these cockroaches.

He had never seen an insect that could split in half and then rejoin itself, recovering instantly.

Cockroaches, known as the indestructible ‘little strong,’ already have a strong life force and regenerative capability.

These few cockroaches were pets carefully cultivated by Elder Jiu Yin; their regenerative ability was probably at a terrifying level.

“I’ve got to get two of these back home. When the Ant Queen lays offspring with this strong regenerative ability, the thought is just unimaginable.”

Qin Niu had no interest in those Bloodsucking Locusts.

On the other hand, the Golden Toad in the basket was very interested in them, constantly flicking out its tongue to pull locusts attacking Qin Niu into its mouth.

One by one, it ate joyfully.

“Fourth, can you handle those cockroaches?”

Qin Niu had already taken out a large Metal Bug Canister.

The cockroaches were huge, and each canister could hold at most one.

He had to figure out a way to bring several back with him.

Because one or two might not be enough to evolve the Ant Queen’s special abilities.

It would be best to catch all of these.

Qin Niu was, for the first time, feeling the inconvenience of the bug canister. Because of its small size, it couldn’t hold much.

Insect Bags were more popular for this reason.
