Chapter 97 The White Jade Queen Bee Enters
After sending away his seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan, Zhang Zhixuan continued to practice every day. With the help of the Water Spirit Pot, he did not lack training resources for the time being, and his mana also increased rapidly.
Starting from this year, the family system began to change. Every year, monks who complete family tasks will receive a certain amount of family good deeds, and then use their good deeds to exchange for spiritual resources within the family.
Taicheng County has been peaceful since returning from Southern Wasteland.
Time flies so fast, and another five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In recent years, Zhang Zhixuan has been traveling abroad, and now he has finally settled down for a while.
In these rare and stable years, Zhang Zhixuan’s cultivation level took another step forward two years ago, becoming a second-level foundation-building monk.
Three years ago, the yellow bud grass matured again, and Zhang Zhixuan refined the golden bud pill again. Because his cultivation level had greatly increased, his magic power was far beyond what he had been before, and his alchemy skills had also been upgraded to the second level. This time he had a very high success rate in refining the elixir, almost exceeding the seventh level and refining more than 700 Golden Bud Pills.
This batch of Golden Bud Pills entered the market, which immediately eased the family’s tight finances.
In the next two years, the Xuanyou grass also matured one after another. Zhang Zhixuan left five Xuanyou grasses as seeds, and the remaining eight Xuanyou grasses were all refined into the Youhuan Dan.
Refining this second-level high-grade elixir, Zhang Zhixuan’s elixir success rate also exceeded the fourth level, and he successfully refined four bottles of Youhuan Dan.
As Zhang Zhixuan brought Youhuan Dan to Taicheng County, this elixir also opened up a market in Xihefang. In recent years, this kind of elixir has become a common elixir in Taicheng County.
The large influx of Youhuan Dan has led to oversupply, and the price of this type of elixir has also been reduced, from one fifteen spirit stone to twelve spirit stones, which is only slightly more expensive than Heishanfang City.
In recent years, two large-scale elixirs have been refined, and the family’s income has been very considerable. These two batches of elixirs are worth more than 2,500 spirit stones, which has greatly alleviated the imbalance of the family’s income and expenditure.
Last year, clan leader Zhang Leqian stepped up his game and went to the Southern Wilderness to transport spiritual rice, earning a profit of five hundred spiritual stones.
Based on the previous experience, this time the journey was very safe and the mission was completed without any setbacks.
In the past five years, Qingchan has finally encountered a bottleneck in foundation building, and his mana has stopped growing since three years ago.
Aunt Hanyan also left the family three years ago and returned to Qingxuan Sect.
When she left, her mother was very sad. Her mother was nearly seventy years old. As a mortal, she did not have much life left. After this separation, Han Yan would have to wait another five years if she wanted to come back.
This separation may be the last time the mother and daughter see each other.
After Zhang Hanyan returned to Qingxuan Sect, letters came from time to time. While completing her tasks, she began to inquire about monks who were good at treating soul injuries.
As soon as there was news, Zhang Zhixuan was going to take Qing Chan to visit Qingxuan Sect.
During the past five years, the seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan took a Youhuan Dan and successfully broke through the realm and became a ninth-level qi-training monk.
According to the family’s regulations, if you become a ninth-level qi-training monk, you will serve as the elder of the family and be responsible for all aspects of the family.
Although the seventh uncle was already over eighty years old and had no potential, the family still decided to abide by the system and made him an elder, responsible for managing the monks who planted the spiritual fields.
But at the annual family elders meeting, Zhang Zhixuan and the patriarch also changed the rules. From this day on, monks who break through the ninth level of Qi training after the age of sixty will no longer be able to serve as family elders, nor will they have an annual salary of sixty spiritual stones.
The reason why the family allows monks at the ninth level of Qi training to serve as elders is, firstly, because they have high cultivation and are the backbone of the family. Secondly, because they are preparing to build the foundation and are extremely short of cultivation resources, so they are allowed to serve as elders. , just to subsidize them.
However, even if a monk like Qi Bo reaches the ninth level of Qi training, he can no longer help the family. Instead, he can only suck blood from the family.
However, after this incident, the seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan’s face became a little ugly.
Among the elders in the family, he has the lowest prestige and is often secretly pointed out by the monks in the family.
Therefore, in recent years, he has been in Lingtian almost all year round, even the family’s elders’ meeting, and often finds excuses to take leave. After he became a ninth-level Qi training monk, he rarely returned to Lushan.
In the past five years, Zhang Zhixuan has been introduced to the Heavenly Fire Golden Sword Technique, and has perfected the second level of this technique, completely achieving attribute exchange.
The Samadhi True Fire he has cultivated now has extraordinary power once it is unleashed.
Even the magical power of Purple Qi Divine Light has made some progress.
After several years of practice, Zhang Zhixuan has continuously opened up the four spiritual orifices of Tanzhong, Yutang, Zigong, and Huagai. The progress of this practice is faster than he previously expected. Maybe it won’t take thirty years for Zhang Zhixuan to be able to I have mastered this spell.
One day, Zhang Zhixuan had just refined the purple energy, and a spiritual talisman flew into the cave.
Zhang Zhixuan took the spiritual talisman and saw that it was the seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan who sent the spiritual talisman. Another good news came from the spiritual field. The White Jade Bee finally advanced today and became a second-level low-grade spiritual insect.
When the queen bee becomes a secondary queen, the amount of royal jelly produced will almost triple, more eggs will be laid every year, and the number of hives will expand.
After hearing the good news, Zhang Zhixuan hurriedly collected his achievements and immediately went to Lingtian.
Although Qi Bo is eighty-six years old, he is still in good spirits. He is busy in the spiritual field every day and looks relatively capable.
Seeing Zhang Zhixuan arriving, he hurriedly led Zhang Zhixuan to the hive.
After more than ten years of cultivation, the White Jade Beehive has doubled in size, and the earliest White Jade Beehive has also expired in recent years.
The bee swarms today are no longer the ones Zhang Zhixuan saw back then.
These newly born white jade bees are far more ferocious and larger than the first generation of mutated wild bees.
In recent years, the monks who take care of the White Jade Bee have been stung frequently, and their noses and faces are swollen every day. Very few people are willing to do this job.
Zhang Zhixuan took a closer look and found that the queen bee had grown three times in size, almost as big as an adult fist.
The evolved queen bee has become very fierce in temperament. As long as someone approaches the hive, she will command swarms of bees to chase them.
Even Seventh Uncle Zhang Mengyuan was stung several times by white jade bees when he was observing the hive today, and the swelling on his hands has not dissipated even now.
Zhang Zhixuan shook his head with a wry smile. Although the advancement of the White Jade Queen Bee is a good thing, from today onwards, the monks can no longer approach the hive.
If a monk has insufficient cultivation and approaches the beehive, his life will be in danger if he is besieged by the queen bee.
Zhang Zhixuan looked at everyone and said: “From today on, no one should come within ten feet of the hive to avoid being stung by the queen bee. The queen bee is already a second-level monster, and the toxicity on the tail needle has increased greatly. Once stung, , it is very difficult to recover.
You guys wait a moment and let us think of a solution. After this hidden danger is solved, we can go collect honey again. “
