A Druid Also Can Cultivate-Chapter 342 - 325: Master Lingfei: Bixia Earth Dragon, Earth Core Stone Turtle (Part 2)
"Don’t be afraid, I’ll take you to a place with lots of delicious food..."
"De...licious? Okay...Hungry, want delicious food..." Qi Ping stumbled as he responded after accepting Bixia Earth Dragon.
Without the effects of the Druid’s Animal Companion contract, communication sensitivity with these Spirit Insects is indeed not high.
After getting Bixia Earth Dragon’s consent, Qi Ping took them back to his territory.
...
Within the territory, various fallen leaves, withered branches, Spiritual Medicine stems, residues from animal companions...and so on, Qi Ping’s usual method of handling is directly burning them into ashes with flames, and then using them as Grass and Wood Spirit Ash.
But now with Bixia Earth Dragon, it’s much easier to handle.
"The key is to excrete a kind of [Wood Spirit Qi] to accelerate the growth of Spirit Plant, although the effect is far less than the Druid’s [Plant Growth], Bixia Earth Dragon’s advantage lies in its large quantity!"
"If I had met this group of Bixia Earth Dragon when I first started cultivation, I would have been overjoyed..."
"But now it’s not bad either. With their help, the future growth speed of Spirit Plant in my territory will be much quicker..."
With a weak foundation in Spiritual Medicine, Plant Growth can cultivate more quantities, but if Bixia Earth Dragon is cultivated to tens of thousands, the effect produced in such a scenario would be beyond what Plant Growth can catch up with.
"So it seems this is quite nice, in the future, cultivating animal companions and resources for Blast Soldier won’t be a worry. If these Bixia Earth Dragon can advance further, their role can be even greater..."
"Also, let’s wait for the number of Bixia Earth Dragon to increase a bit more. There are still some places in the Underworld suitable for Bixia Earth Dragon’s survival, then have some go over, to produce more [Wood Spirit Qi]!"
As his thoughts wandered, Qi Ping realized that once the Bixia Earth Dragon scaled up, the profit it could bring seemed somewhat ridiculous.
Once in the future Qi Ping becomes the true ruler of Qingtian Realm, there will be many places to use Bixia Earth Dragon, such as the current Tier Two and Tier Three Spirit Veins in Qingtian Realm, which are very suitable for Bixia Earth Dragon’s survival, with some Tier One Spirit Veins also having great development value.
At this point, Qi Ping gradually realized a problem, which is the development of the Immortal Cultivation Realm is also dependent on human action. Appropriate scale breeding and production, like the cultivation of Bixia Earth Dragon, is a thing that can both increase the yield of Spiritual Medicine and bring great benefits to the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
"Eat, eat, these are all yours!"
Qi Ping placed a pile of high-level Spirit Plant leaves and branches in front of the Bixia Earth Dragons.
And the Bixia Earth Dragons, upon seeing the food Qi Ping gave them, all began trembling with excitement.
Heavens! What kind of divine food is this!
Even the smallest scraps among these foods are something they have never had before, such celestial food!
"Thank...you!"
"Too...grateful...to you!"
The excitement in Bixia Earth Dragons’ hearts at this moment was simply indescribable.
Qi Ping was extremely happy about this too, having gained such a group of powerful creatures, his future farming endeavors could earn more Spirit Stones, at that time Qi Ping would also need many Spirit Stones and other Great Realms for trade.
Additionally, there was a sense of joy in saving Bixia Earth Dragon itself.
Such things that allow harmonious development in the Immortal Cultivation Realm are inherently worth being happy about, and ultimately, this is his territory!
After completing the protection of Bixia Earth Dragon, Qi Ping found he’d once again received the Power of the Living from Bixia Earth Dragon, and for some reason, the quality of this Power of the Living was extremely high.
"Perhaps it’s because Bixia Earth Dragon is a special creature beneficial to the Immortal Cultivation Realm?" Qi Ping speculated in his heart.
This further strengthened Qi Ping’s determination to expand and develop the Bixia Earth Dragon group.
If Bixia Earth Dragon could develop to tens or hundreds of thousands, wouldn’t the Power of the Living he gains explode?
"Besides the Power of the Living, [Mountain and River’s Favor] managed to gain more power, though the boost wasn’t much..."
Qi Ping estimated this was because Bixia Earth Dragon hadn’t started bringing significant value to Qingtian Realm yet, maybe when Bixia Earth Dragon begins to have a huge impact on Qingtian Realm, that would be when his power spikes.
"Great, great, move on to the next one!"
Motivated by what Bixia Earth Dragon offered, Qi Ping couldn’t help but feel more excited about these matters.
After settling Bixia Earth Dragon to adapt to the environment in his territory, Qi Ping applied [Mountain and River’s Favor] to them, and then hurriedly left, heading to the next troubled group.
...
After spending over two days traveling underground, Qi Ping arrived at the second race’s location.
In a layer deep within the earth’s crust, Qi Ping discovered a group of Earth Core Stone Turtles covered with rotting marks.
"Rot-meat disease?"
Just at first glance, Qi Ping recognized the disease that was troubling the Earth Core Stone Turtles.
Qi Ping had specifically studied books on diseases in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Because when Qi Ping first learned that a Void Refining Stage cultivator could actually die from illness, Qi Ping’s worldview was shaken.
Having cultivated in the Immortal Cultivation, could a Void Refining Stage cultivator still die from illness? Isn’t that a joke? Originally, Qi Ping thought only Qi Refining Stage cultivators would be plagued by diseases and epidemics.
But after truly understanding, Qi Ping realized there are quite a few diseases in the Immortal Cultivation Realm capable of threatening Divinity Transformation Stage and Void Refining Stage, they’re just particularly rare, but terrifying and troublesome beyond comparison to mortal diseases.
Some can even be described as bizarre, more horrifying than many curses.
The only saving grace is that diseases of this level are extremely rare, typically only contracted from some terrifying forbidden grounds.
Fortunately, the rot-meat disease troubling the Earth Core Stone Turtles isn’t considered particularly troublesome for Qi Ping, while others might find it thorny, for Qi Ping it’s a simple task.
After communicating with the Earth Core Stone Turtles, Qi Ping began the healing process.
This process was straightforward and rough, Qi Ping directly used Illusion Technique to control the Earth Core Stone Turtles, reducing their pain.
Then directly using Extreme Yang Spiritual Power and Beast King’s Fire to burn away all rot and disease roots.
Finally, using Healing Technique effectively completed their treatment, techniques like Solar True Fire are almost the nemesis of all diseases.
Under Qi Ping’s operation, the first Earth Core Stone Turtle quickly completed treatment.
The other Earth Core Stone Turtles were also incredibly excited and happy upon seeing this scene; their long-standing rot-meat disease was finally cured!
Their gazes towards Qi Ping became increasingly respectful and worshipful!
After spending some time, Qi Ping quickly completed treatment on more than thirty Earth Core Stone Turtles.
"Thank you, our most reverent friend!"
Upon completion of treatment, all Earth Core Stone Turtles expressed their most sincere gratitude to Qi Ping.
And because of this, Qi Ping gained considerable Power of the Living, over half of this long-lived group of Earth Core Stone Turtles were Tier Two!
Even two Tier Two Perfection were present, if not for being troubled by rot-meat disease, they might have attempted to break through Golden Core.
But Qi Ping advised them to best hide well for the next two hundred years, temporarily not aiming to break through Golden Core, otherwise the probable end awaiting Earth Core Stone Turtles might be being eaten.
The Earth Core Stone Turtles also followed Qi Ping’s advice, opting to settle for two hundred years before considering, this amount of lifespan is entirely bearable for Earth Core Stone Turtles.
Qi Ping was happy about this, after all, being the Mountain and River’s Favor, the power of Earth Core Stone Turtles to some extent is also his power, naturally the stronger these Earth Core Stone Turtles are the better.
Before leaving, Qi Ping threw a [Mountain and River’s Favor] onto them.
This group of Earth Core Stone Turtles is good, worth cultivating properly, fits well into constructing the Underworld fortress strategy.
...
After leaving Earth Core Stone Turtles, Qi Ping proceeded to the location of the last race.
Originally, Qi Ping guessed this should be a simple matter to resolve, but upon seeing the blood-red vines growing in their flesh, Qi Ping’s brow furrowed tightly.
"Is this... Parasitic Blood Species?"
"And...this is the aura of the Supreme Elder!"
Qi Ping’s expression immediately darkened.
