However, Lin Xiao only saw three.
But these three made Gui Guzi and the others excited.
"Just these three?" Looking at Gui Guzi, Lin Xiao asked in surprise.
Lin Xiao didn't really understand, because he knew that the more these insects there were, the more powerful they would be. If there were only three of them, they wouldn't have much combat strength.
"Master, these three are Mother Worms!"
Gui Guzi revealed a profound smile and said excitedly, "As long as they are given time, any one of them will be able to threaten a Peak of Major Golden Immortal Stage."
Gui Guzi had told this to Lin Xiao before, but Lin Xiao knew that this would require the Mother Worm to give birth. Then, those little bugs would devour each other and evolve, eventually forming a very powerful army. But at this time...
According to Lin Xiao's understanding, it would probably take tens of thousands of years. He couldn't wait for this time.
"How long will that take?"
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but ask. To him, this was the most important question.
He chuckled. Gui Guzi said mysteriously, "This will depend on you."
"Me?"
Lin Xiao looked at Gui Guzi curiously, not understanding what he meant.
"Master, I will not talk nonsense. When we first discovered these few Mother Worms, we had indeed thought of this problem. We knew that this cycle might be very long, but not too long ago... We fed these Mother Worms Spirit Pills and discovered that they could speed up the growth of these Mother Worms by tenfold. In the end, we tested it out with an Immortal Pill, and it could speed up the Mother Worm's growth by a hundred times! "
Gui Guzi looked at Lin Xiao with excitement in his eyes. He continued, "Therefore, as long as we provide them with enough Immortal Pills, a mature army of Striped Iron Ant will only need about ten years. Of course, we can also nurture a Peak Striped Iron Ant that is equivalent to a Great Luo Golden Immortal Level 8 or a Ninth Level Peak in advance."
This...
He had never thought that there would be such a method!
Furthermore, this wasn't a difficult task for him. He just needed an Immortal Pill. As for this Immortal Pill, Lin Xiao really didn't lack it.
Of course, Lin Xiao was also clear about the division of the Striped Iron Ant army and Peak Striped Iron Ant.
Actually, this was a choice for the direction of the Striped Iron Ant's development.
There were two choices under the premise that the late stage Striped Iron Ant had grown enough Striped Iron Ants.
s continue to devour and evolve until they finally evolved into a powerful combat strength equal to a Great Luo Golden Immortal Level 8 or level 9. However, it was relatively difficult, and it would take a very long time.
The other method was to give up on devouring. When a large number of Striped Iron Ants were at the Golden Immortal, they would form an army of Golden Immortal Striped Iron Ants. If that was the case, this army of Striped Iron Ants could devour Peak of Major Golden Immortal Stage warriors. However, it would also consume some of its energy because it would be killed. However, this method would only take a short period of time. Normally, it would only take a fifth of the time of the previous method.
One could work once and for all, and the other needed to be continuously replenished. Each had its own advantages, and this made Lin Xiao unable to make a decision for a moment.
But soon, he seemed to have thought of something and asked: "Oh, right. Didn't you say that there should be four Striped Iron Ant?"
"Indeed, we obtained four of these Striped Iron Ants back then. Three of them are still at the early stage, while the other one has already matured!"
Nodding his head lightly, Gui Guzi said with a smile: "I estimate that after the people in the Yuan Opening Horse Row obtained these four Striped Iron Ants, they did not have enough resources, so they focused on cultivating one. We did not waste any time, so we specially cultivated that Striped Iron Ant Mother Worm. Now, she has already laid three eggs."
"So that's how it is!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao revealed an excited expression.
He did not expect that the Natal Opening Horse Row would give him a generous gift to help him nurture a Mother Worm in advance.
Seeing Lin Xiao's excited expression, Gui Guzi also smiled and said with some embarrassment, "But Master, this Mother Worm is really too edible. In order to cultivate it, we have given him all the Immortal Pills and Spirit Pills that Master has given us to ensure its growth!"
"That's right, Your Majesty. We are so poor that we don't even have the pill to cultivate."
"That's right. We have given everything to the Mother Worm, but she still doesn't have enough to eat!"
"Seeing this bug eat and eat every day, we are really envious!"
...
Hearing Gui Guzi's words, the subordinates standing at the side also scrambled to speak.
Hearing these voices, Lin Xiao also smiled. "Don't worry, everyone. I, Lin Xiao, am not a stingy person. I will make up for all your sacrifices by three times, alright?"
If these Mother Worms could grow quickly, this was naturally what Lin Xiao wanted.
For example, if he wanted to cultivate a Striped Iron Ant that had the Major Golden Immortals of the Ninth Level cultivation base, then he would need around ten years' time, even if he had to constantly supply the Striped Iron Ant with Immortal Pills.
And now, comparatively speaking, if he only cultivated a Striped Iron Ant army, then the time he would need would be much less. It would only take about two years.
And having a Striped Iron Ant army was equivalent to having a Peak of Major Golden Immortal Stage expert overseeing it. This was already comparable to those top powers in Central Prefecture.
Therefore, as long as they had this army, no matter if it was from a psychological or other perspective, they would feel much more at ease.
It was precisely because of this that Gui Guzi and the others didn't wait for Lin Xiao to take out all of their precious pills and immortal pills.
Although it might only be about a month earlier, it was still a month after all. Now that they had arrived in Central Region, the crisis could be said to be everywhere. Therefore, this month's time was very precious.
"Not bad!"
After praising everyone, Lin Xiao smiled again and said: "Let's go, bring me to see that Mother Worm!"
"Alright."
Gui Guzi readily agreed.
Very quickly, under Gui Guzi's lead, Lin Xiao saw the developed Mother Worm. She had given birth to more than ten thousand children, but they were all very weak. It would take some time for them to grow.
...
At the same time, senior martial brother Zhang and the other eight people finally arrived at the north of Bing State.
Although there were only eight of them, with their Contract Beast, their strength and combat strength could be doubled in an instant. Therefore, the eight of them weren't really afraid, but they were still relatively cautious.
"How's the situation in the north?" senior martial brother Zhang looked at a disciple of the Beast Hunting Sect who was helping him and asked.
After the incident at the Yuan Opening Horse Row, Ouyang Yu had sent someone to investigate the situation of the Yuan Opening Horse Row in the north. After all, they were preparing to unify the Bing State, so they could not afford to lose it.
