Chapter 48 Summoned by Sun Shengmei (please collect, recommend, and read)
At the beginning, Sun Mingsheng exchanged six first-level medium-grade Firebird Talismans for thirty black-striped ant eggs. He spent three days and successfully hatched twenty-two black-striped ants. The remaining eight eggs had lost their life breath. .
The black-striped ants themselves are only first-order low-grade, and the eggs they produce are just relatively ordinary embryos of life. Being able to hatch most of them is already a good achievement.
These newly hatched larvae of black striped ants themselves are in a relatively weak state. Only after devouring enough food can they be promoted to the first-level low-grade and possess a certain degree of combat effectiveness.
The eight unhatched eggs are naturally useful and become the first delicious meal for the first black-striped ant king to be born.
After devouring the eggs full of nutrients, the king black-striped ant also grew at a speed visible to the naked eye and became stronger.
Perhaps it was the innate recognition engraved in the blood, but the remaining twenty-one black-striped ants quickly surrounded the ant king.
Because there is currently no spirit beast bag to store, under his control, the black-striped ants began to build an ant nest in an inconspicuous corner of the training room.
Of course, the construction of an ant nest is a long-term process. As the black-striped ant population expands, the area and scale of the ant nest will also increase.
At present, the black-striped ants are still in the fragile larval stage. Sun Mingsheng specially exchanges some first-order low-grade spiritual beasts' flesh and blood from his family to raise them.
"You little guys are really big eaters. Although your body is only one-third of the size of your little finger, you eat three to five kilograms of blood food in each meal." Looking at the black-striped ants feasting on the food, Sun Mingsheng revealed a trace of flesh. The look of pain.
Monster flesh and blood has a wide range of uses, and the exchange price is not cheap even among families. A first-level mid-grade Firebird Talisman can only be exchanged for one pound of first-grade low-grade spirit beast flesh and blood.
Fortunately, the black-striped ant is not picky about food, so what he buys are scraps of low value.
No wonder there aren't many monks cultivating spiritual beasts in their families. It's not that they are unwilling or unaware of the benefits of spiritual beasts, it's just that they simply can't support it.
In this process of cultivating black-striped ants while practicing cultivation, three months passed in a blink of an eye.
Not only has the application to join the Beast Hunting Team never been approved, but the quota for the second core seed member of the Ming Dynasty that should be given after returning from the Qiuli Guo Club is also far away, which makes people anxious.
"Twelve brothers, are you practicing?" A very familiar voice appeared in my ears that day.
"Second sister, aren't you serving my great-aunt? How come you have time to come to my little brother today?" Sun Mingsheng showed a curious expression.
Sun Mingxiu, ranked second in the Ming Dynasty, is also a three-spirited monk, with a sixth-level Qi cultivation, and has been following Sun Shengmei, the only female cultivator in the family's foundation-building period.
"I came here today to convey my ancestor's order. Follow me to the cave to pay homage to her." Sun Mingxiu showed sincere respect for this elder in the foundation building stage.
Sun Shengmei has a third-level cultivation base, and her experience is quite legendary.
There are more men than women in the world of cultivation, especially among high-level monks. Most female monks will choose a suitable husband to marry under the family's selection to enhance the family's influence.
However, this great-aunt never married. She had a firm Taoist heart and was decisive in killing. She put all her energy into practice.
The spiritual objects used to build the foundation were not foundation building pills. He almost endured tremendous pain, risked his life, and wandered on the edge of life and death several times before he was lucky enough to be promoted to the foundation building stage.
Later, he served as an elder in the foundation-building period for a long time, handling family affairs of all sizes. He was selfless and had a great reputation among the entire family.
"Why did my great-aunt summon me? Please tell my second sister." Sun Mingsheng had some secret guesses.
"It's a good thing for her to come forward in person, just follow me," Sun Mingxiu urged from the side.
Soon the two of them left the cave and each used their spells to quickly move towards the location of the monks' cave during the foundation building period on the top of the mountain.
This is the area with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire Divine Dog Mountain, and it is also the most elite area that has been inherited by the Sun family to this day.
The only second-level elixir garden in the family is also here. Thanks to the efforts of the family's ancestors, a second-level elixir will mature every few years.
These second-level elixirs can be traded externally to exchange for some spiritual objects that the family desperately needs, or they can be found by skilled alchemists to refine them into second-level elixirs to support the cultivation needs of the four elders in the foundation-building period.
In addition, the autumn pear seedlings they brought back from Yuquan Mountain were also planted on the top of Shendog Mountain under the careful care of Sun Shenghong, the only first-level spiritual planter.
"My grandson Mingsheng, I came here to see my great-aunt." Outside the cave, Sun Mingsheng was feeling quite nervous.
In so many years, except under some specific circumstances, this is the first time that I have faced the summons and questioning of the elders in the family's foundation-building period alone.
"No need to be polite here, come in." An old and solemn but soft voice appeared in my ears.
Under the leadership of Sun Mingxiu, the two stepped into the cave. Soon an old woman about seventy years old was sitting on a wooden chair holding a snake-head staff.
"Great-aunt, this is Mingsheng." Sun Mingxiu was very familiar with this place and ran to the old woman and said in her ear.
"Xunmu has already said it in detail. On behalf of the family, I officially recommend you as the second core seed member of the Ming Dynasty. This is a major matter involving family inheritance. You must be careful. Do you understand?" Sun Shengmei asked with a serious face.
"My grandson understands, please let me know from my great-aunt." Sun Mingsheng could only express gratitude to his family, and he never dared to feel any resentment.
"There are only two core seed members in each generation. In addition to the requirements for cultivation, qualifications, and combat effectiveness, moral character and character are also top priorities."
"The family's strength is limited. If we cause trouble outside at will, it may bring disaster to the entire family."
Sun Shengmei took the trouble to give careful instructions, and she also kept secretly observing during the process. It was also a small test of character.
If a core seed member who is ready to be selected lacks the patience to continue to be lectured by his elders, he is likely to bring more disasters to the family in the future.
Naturally, Sun Mingsheng would not have such a situation. He maintained a respectful, serious and impeccable attitude from the beginning to the end.
"I heard that you are planning to apply to join the hunting team?" As soon as the words changed, Sun Shengmei had already asked another question.
"I would like to inform my great-aunt, I only realized my lack of combat experience when I went to Yuquan Mountain this time. If you want to serve your family in the future, it will not be enough to just practice hard and draw talismans. Only by growing up in the sea of blood can you grow up. He is considered a true monk." When he said this, he was quite firm and decisive.
"At your age, it's good to have these understandings. If you want to, go and experience it. Go on."
