Chapter 47 Hatching Black Ants (Please Collect, Recommend, and Read)

If it weren't for Sun Xunmu who was willing to suffer a heavy blow to intercept two ninth-level Qi training monks in a one-on-two battle, there would definitely be more casualties.

From the ring battle in Yuquan Mountain to the interception from the black-clothed monks, in all the battles, Sun Mingzeng and his three people's fighting experience seemed too immature.

Not to mention fighting with some old monks, even fighting with monks of the same generation, they are often at a disadvantage.

"After returning to the family this time, I will apply to join the beast hunting team as soon as possible," Sun Mingsheng secretly made up his mind.

The family beast hunting team is led by a ninth-level Qi training elder. He has been active in the depths of the Dongyan Mountains for many years and relies mainly on hunting first-level middle and upper-quality monsters.

In addition to training combat experience to improve combat effectiveness and make up for their own shortcomings, they can also get extremely rich spoils of war, so that their own cultivation is in a relatively fast state of improvement.

In the second half of the journey, there was no accident and they returned to the family base camp smoothly.

After experiencing the struggles and dangers of the outside world, Sun Mingzeng and his two companions finally understood the value of the family. Only here can they practice with peace of mind without worrying about interference from the outside world.

After returning to the family, Sun Mingsheng immediately returned to the small courtyard where he lived. In the practice room for daily practice, he used fifteen spiritual stones as the source of spiritual power to hatch thirty black-striped ants with a painful face.

For the control of black-striped ants, it is easy to control the entire black-striped ant colony by planting a prohibition for the ant king.

For the thirty black-striped ant eggs in front of them, under the same conditions, the first to hatch must be the strongest black-striped ant, which is also the first choice of the ant king.

"If everything goes well, these little guys will also be important partners on the road of practice for a long time in the future." Sun Mingsheng's heart is now full of expectations for the future.

Of course, it is impossible for all the thirty black-striped ant eggs to hatch successfully. The dead eggs that have not been successfully hatched are the first nutritious meal for cultivating the ant king.

Under the condition of ensuring sufficient spiritual power supply, all can be successfully hatched in a month.

Black-striped ants are omnivorous spirit animals that accept all kinds of food and are relatively easy to raise. This was also an important factor in his decision to trade.

After all, he was just an ordinary seventh-level Qi training cultivator. Even if he tried his best, he could only barely maintain his own cultivation needs.

If he cultivated a spirit animal with noble bloodline and special resources, wouldn’t it be really adding insult to injury?

As a talisman master, all kinds of discarded semi-finished products in the process of drawing spirit talismans will also be one of the foods that black-striped ants use to fill their stomachs in the future.

On the second day after returning to the family, because he successfully defeated the ambushed casual cultivators, Sun Mingsheng received a considerable reward based on his merits, including 28 spirit stones, a bottle of first-grade superior Qi Condensation Pill, and five first-grade medium-grade pine eggs.

"The family is planning to let me raise spirit animals full-time by rewarding five pine eggs?" Sun Mingsheng was also a little confused.

No matter where the specific use will be in the future, Sun Mingsheng will never refuse the spirit objects in his hands.

The five grouse eggs were of a lower grade and did not have a significant effect on his cultivation. He had no interest in raising grouse.

His Tao heart had always been quite firm. He hatched black-striped ants only to improve his combat effectiveness and assist in hunting monsters in the future.

"My nephew has met Uncle Wu. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?" Sun Mingsheng greeted him in the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.

Although his cultivation had surpassed Sun Xunzhao, who had been in charge of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall for many years, the blood inheritance of the family meant respect for the elders was indispensable.

"I heard that the Qiuli Fruit Festival performed well this time and brought honor to the family." For cultivators like Sun Xunzhao, who had poor qualifications and no hope for future cultivation, but placed all their passion on the family, the future of the family was everything they cared about the most.

"It was just a victory with a talisman. If it was a simple competition of combat effectiveness, my nephew would be far inferior." In front of the elders of the family, Sun Mingsheng had always been quite humble and never dared to be complacent.

"I'm not proud of my achievements. What's the matter with coming to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall today?" Sun Xunzhao asked with satisfaction.

"My nephew wants to apply to join the beast hunting team and hunt monsters to increase his practical experience," Sun Mingsheng responded loudly.

The Miscellaneous Affairs Hall is responsible for the first review of almost all family affairs. Only after successfully passing the review can they enter the review of the professional team.

"Do you know the risks of the beast hunting team?" Sun Xunzhao's expression became more and more serious.

The members of the beast hunting team are all cultivators above the seventh level of Qi training, and there is a ninth-level elder leading the team. They can be said to be the essence of the family.

But this does not mean safety. The members of the beast hunting team need to fight with monsters, and all the gains are based on snatching food from the mouths of beasts.

Every time they go to the depths of the Dongyan Mountains to hunt monsters, there will be casualties among the members of the beast hunting team for a period of three to five months or a year.

It can be said that the beast hunting team is one of the most important sources of income for the family, and it is also the team with the highest casualty rate among the clan members. It can be said that it is a typical pain and happiness.

In addition to hunting first-level monsters to earn cultivation resources, another responsibility of the hunting team is to find the traces of second-level monsters.

Once they find something, the four elders in the foundation-building period of the family will choose to hunt it personally.

"My nephew understands the risks of the hunting team, but it is far from enough to practice hard behind closed doors under the protection of the family. Isn't our practice to change our fate? Please help me, uncle," Sun Mingsheng pleaded sincerely.

"Since you have made up your mind, I will hand the list to the hunting team. Whether it will succeed or not will be determined by my third brother," Sun Xunzhao agreed after weighing it.

"Thank you, uncle,"

"Go back and wait for news. There are still many things to deal with in the miscellaneous affairs hall," Sun Xunzhao ordered him to leave.

Day and night alternate, time flies, and more than half a month has passed. Sun Mingsheng has not waited for the news that he is allowed to join the hunting team, but he has waited for the hatching of black-striped ants first.

In the early morning of that day, Sun Mingsheng was practicing. He heard a crisp sound. He looked back and found that an ant with a black body and a body length less than a quarter of the length of the little finger was eating the eggshell with great gusto. It was the first black-striped ant.

"The ant king finally appeared, command" Sun Mingsheng's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth and sprayed a mixture of blood and magic power, covering the head of the black-striped ant.

With his hands waving, a mysterious Bagua pattern appeared, and it decisively immersed in the body of the black-striped ant, planting the mark of the spirit beast.

The black-striped ant had just been born and had no ability to resist. As the mark of the spirit beast stabilized, Sun Mingsheng could clearly feel the emotions from the black-striped ant and a special and mysterious feeling. At this moment, the man and the beast seemed to be one and the same.

As time passed, other black-striped ant eggs also began to hatch one after another.
