Additionally, Fourth’s life span had skyrocketed from 6 months directly to 30.5 years, which was already longer than the life spans of many Ant Queens.
Finally, he no longer had to worry that it would die due to insufficient longevity.
It was as if he had resolved a significant problem.
With a Grade Three Termite in hand, he could finally apply for Insect Master certification.
By then, his status would become more than a hundred times more honorable than it currently was.
Having taught Wang Haikun a lesson yesterday meant a complete fallout.
Wang Haikun didn’t leave his house at all yesterday, which was not a good sign.
After being chastised, if Wang Haikun returned to the village to bluster, or even went to Qin Niu’s house to curse, it would indicate nothing serious.
Given Wang Haikun’s violent temper, eating such a big loss, yet willing to shrink at home all day without going out,
Qin Niu didn’t believe he was at home fussing with his wife.
It was very possible that, holding back his anger, he was thinking of ways to strike back.
In fact, the village bully didn’t have many methods to retaliate.
He definitely couldn’t win in a fight against Qin Niu, so his only option would be to seek support from his elder brother.
Qin Niu planned to rush to the city tomorrow to snatch up the Insect Master certification early, so that afterward, he could confront any situation without fear.
If he had more time, he would wait to cultivate other Grade Three Termites or bees before seeking the certification.
Because of Fourth’s strong abilities, he intended to keep it as a hidden trump card.
If it could remain undetected, that would be for the best.
The Ant Queen’s experience in upgrading was continually increasing, but the idea of letting it advance to a Grade Three Termite naturally was virtually unthinkable.
Even if successful, it would certainly be a perilous trial, one with a slim chance of survival.
The difficulty was even higher than Fourth successfully navigating through life-and-death thresholds.
“Should the Ant Queen also consume some Banyan Tree Blood?”
This idea was tempting, but the risk was too great for Qin Niu to bear.
If the Ant Queen died, the entire ant colony would be wiped out.
In terms of importance, the Ant Queen was even more crucial than Fourth.
The five strong Worker Ants should now be ready to enter the experimental phase.
Having successfully cultivated Poison Soldier Ants and strong Soldier Ants, he believed the strong Worker Ants would be equally successful.
Out of the five strong Soldier Ants, surely one or two would succeed, right?
Qin Niu, watching the Termite Army gradually take shape, began to conduct more experiments and explorations.
Eleven Ghost Soldier Ants and a long-range attack force consisting of 51 Puppet Worker Ants looked quite impressive.
A total of 46 Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants and 30 Swift Worker Ants were excellent at nest building and foraging. If necessary, they could also fight on the battlefield.
However, with 19 Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier Ants, 1 Grade Two Tiger-striped Armored Ant, and 1 Grade Two Dark Poison Ant present, sending out Worker Ants to battle would be an insult to the Soldier Ants.
Unless faced with an especially formidable enemy, the Worker Ants would primarily engage in logistical work in the future.
Having made up his mind, Qin Niu commenced the experiment with the five strong Worker Ants on the spot.
This time he fed them Banyan Tree Blood, but he made some flexible adjustments.
Because his Insect Identification skill had reached a certain level of proficiency, he could distinctly sense the strength of an insect, allowing him to make relatively accurate judgments.
For the strong-bodied Soldier Ants, he kept the dose safe and unchanged.
For those with weaker constitutions, he reduced it accordingly.
After feeding the five strong Soldier Ants, Qin Niu had no intention of experimenting with the 20 new Worker Ants.
When it came time to apply for Insect Master certification, he would surely need to bring the Ant Queen and others with him.
Apart from Fourth, the special Worker Ant, he would take all other ordinary Termites.
The lower the profile, the better.
If people knew he had cultivated so many special Termites, they would likely go crazy.
For ordinary Insect Masters, obtaining an insect with a special ability was more difficult than ascending to heaven.
Yet he was producing them in batches.
Would those powerful Insect Masters rest until they had completely exposed him?
Being envious of others could be a crime, he understood.
His gaze turned to the two Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants and the two Swift Worker Ants.
“You four, come here and have some good stuff.”
These four Worker Ants had all consumed Banyan Tree Blood and had successfully evolved.
Now, he was feeding them Thousand Eyes Tree Blood.
He felt that Thousand Eyes Tree Blood must be different from Banyan Tree Blood. So he wanted to try if this kind of secondary cultivation could be successful.
Huh, they’re consuming much more of the ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood than regular termites!”
Qin Niu found that all four had hearty appetites, especially the two Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants, which consumed three to four times the dose of ordinary termites.
Once they were nearly full, they automatically stopped.
The two Swift Worker Ants, as if bewitched, started spinning in place.
Twisting their heads and bending their bodies, it seemed like they were trying to bite their own behinds.
But they never managed to reach, so they just kept spinning in place.
After consuming their share, the two Grade Two Lightning Worker Ants appeared much calmer. They simply circled around where they were.
As if taking a walk.
Bang!
One of the strong Worker Ants fed with Banyan Tree Blood unfortunately exploded and died.
It gave him quite a scare.
Qin Niu felt a pang of regret.
This particular type of termite was very precious; it was a real pity that it died.
Based on experience, it was good if two out of five strong Soldier Ants survived.
On the other hand, none of the four Swift Ants and Lightning Ants fed with ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood died.
It felt like Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood was relatively safer.
He had already used it to cultivate so many termites without encountering a single death.
The abilities evolved after being fed with ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood were also quite interesting, all being long-range attack abilities.
Time slowly passed, and miraculously, the remaining four strong Worker Ants survived without any more exploding incidents.
Qin Niu was secretly pleased.
It seemed that by using his Insect Identification skill to determine the strength and constitution of termites and then adjusting the feeding dosage flexibly, the occurrences of explosions could be effectively reduced.
The termites that died were ail burst from the violent energy.
In theory, each one should be able to be successfully cultivated.
Of course, to reach that level, his Insect Identification skill would probably need to be of a higher grade. He would also need to accumulate more cultivation experience before it could be possible.
With two batches of successful termite experiments, he turned his attention to the Ghost Soldier Ants and Puppet Worker Ants.
“Come out, four!”
He called out two of each kind and, after individually identifying them, fed them a certain dose of Banyan Tree Blood.
With the successful experience of cultivating the strong Worker Ants, he became even bolder this time.
While feeding them Banyan Tree Blood, he even increased the dosage a bit over the safe amounts.
After feeding, he watched them closely.
Neither the two Ghost Soldier Ants nor the two Puppet Worker Ants died.
Their body swelling was not as severe as imagined.
Although they swelled somewhat, it was nowhere near the point where their abdominal skin stretched to transparency.
“Could it be that after consuming ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood, their bodies have become much stronger, so the safe dosage for regular termites no longer applies to them?”
Such a question flashed through Qin Niu’s mind.
It was a good sign that none of the four died.
He would see the results once their evolution was complete.
Then, he would make flexible adjustments based on the outcomes.
After cultivating these four, Qin Niu’s gaze shifted to the one and only Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier Ant he had.
“Come here!
After being called over, Qin Niu had a Worker Ant feed it ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood.
There was no choice; all Soldier Ants lacked the ability to feed themselves.
Like babies, they had to be fed by Worker Ants.
The Worker Ant feeding it started to spin in place like it was drunk halfway through feeding the Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier Ant, which had no issues.
It seemed indeed as Qin Niu had guessed, after termites had drunk Banyan Tree Blood or ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ Blood and evolved, their bodies grew many times stronger. Hence, the dosage of tree blood they needed to be fed also increased.
He had noticed this while feeding ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood to those four Swift Ants and Lightning Ants.
Qin Niu decided to have a Puppet Worker Ant feed the Grade Two Tiger-striped Soldier Ant.
“Hmm? It seems that there’s another new discovery.”
The Puppet Worker Ant, having evolved from eating ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood previously, showed no changes when consuming ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood this time.
It was as if it was drinking water.
It looked like a second feeding with ‘Thousand Eyes Tree’ blood post-evolution would be ineffective..
