Chapter 431: Ant Colony Improvement

This is the simplest earth spirit house, with 10 rooms for 10 people to live in. Each room is very small and can only fit a small bed.

Each of the 7 people occupies a room, and the remaining three rooms are used to store monster materials, etc. Living in it is still quite crowded and can only barely survive.

However, the interior is very clean, and there are also many cultivation resources, which should be purchased after they hunt monsters and exchange spiritual stones for tasks.

In this valley with dangerous terrain, there are many traces of their lives, but it is rocky here and it is impossible to grow spiritual plants.

Zhou Daocheng sighed inexplicably. As a descendant of a family power, he can calm down and return to the most simple cultivation life. He is indeed worthy of praise for obtaining cultivation resources through hard work.

Zhou Daocheng did not say much, but just told them a few words, and then took out some spiritual honey as a gift from the elders to the children.

Originally, they did not want to accept it, so Zhou Daocheng sold them 3 bottles of first-grade medium-quality spiritual honey at the price of 10 spiritual stones per bottle.

This is much lower than the market price, and it can be regarded as Zhou Daocheng's intention, but he did not offer any other benefits.

The seven of them are no longer children, with an average age of fifteen or sixteen. Whether they are confused or determined, they will all walk out a path that belongs to them.

What will the future be like? He Zhou Daocheng did not know, and no one knew, but as a brother, he could only try his best to believe in them and provide protection to the best of his ability.

After leaving, Zhou Daocheng secretly went to the nest of the purple-armored swallowing spirit ants and asked the queen ant to arrange several teams of purple-armored swallowing spirit ants to take care of Zhou Daoxiu and others.

On weekdays, there is no need to take action, but if they encounter a life-and-death crisis, they can still let the purple-armored swallowing spirit ants save their lives.

By the way, Zhou Daocheng also checked the situation of the purple-armored swallowing spirit ant colony.

The purple-armored swallowing spirit ant colony has been developing for several years. The ant colony of the Spirit Snake Sect has grown to a large enough size, and there are even dozens of second-level swallowing spirit ants. The strength of the entire ant colony has almost reached the second to third levels of foundation building.

Compared with the number, the number of purple-armored soul-swallowing ants is relatively small, but it has also developed well.

As soon as Zhou Daocheng walked into the ant nest, he saw two huge purple-armored soul-swallowing ants surrounding the queen ant, releasing a powerful aura that was much stronger than other purple-armored soul-swallowing ants.

Zhou Daocheng was immediately pleased and couldn't help but say: "Second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants?!"

It can be confirmed that such a huge purple-armored soul-swallowing ant is definitely not a first-level monster. Just by relying on the slight aura it emits, one can feel that its strength is extremely powerful.

Zhou Daocheng also got a definite answer from the queen ant next to him - the current ant colony can really breed second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants!

The queen ant spent almost all the spiritual honey accumulated over the past few years to successfully breed two purple-armored soul-swallowing ants and cultivate them to the second level.

And the strength is much stronger than that of ordinary second-level soul-swallowing ants, almost not weaker than ordinary second-level monsters, which greatly improves the strength of the entire ant colony.

At the same time, in addition to these two purple-armored soul-swallowing ants that have reached the second level, there is another purple-armored soul-swallowing ant that also has the qualifications to break through the second level. It has just been hatched for a few months and has not yet been cultivated to the second level.

In this way, the current ant colony, plus the queen ant, can have a total of four second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants.

Zhou Daocheng also used his spiritual sense to ask: "How many second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants can the current ant colony cultivate? Can the number of first-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants be reduced to increase the number of second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants?"

The queen ant directly and firmly denied Zhou Daocheng's idea.

The most important reason why the entire ant colony can support four second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants is that it has a large enough number of first-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants. They continuously collect spiritual honey, which allows the entire ant colony to operate.

Once the number of first-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants is reduced, the entire ant colony will collapse.

Moreover, why did the queen ant only hatch three second-level soul-swallowing ants? That's because the current ant colony can only support three. If you want to continue breeding, you must further expand the scale of the ant colony.

Zhou Daocheng also nodded thoughtfully. It seems that the purple-armored soul-swallowing ant is still not a monster beast that relies mainly on individual strength. Its essence is still based on quantity!

Although the innate purple qi has improved the blood of the soul-swallowing ant, allowing each individual to have stronger strength, it is not actually stronger than imagined.

Today's second-level purple-armored soul-swallowing ants can barely fight against ordinary monsters. Their overall strength is not very strong, but they are many times stronger than the soul-swallowing ants themselves.

If they face powerful monsters with strong innate blood and unique spells, the purple-armored soul-swallowing ants still have no advantage in single-on-single battles.

However, if they lead a large group of purple-armored soul-swallowing ants to fight and crush the enemy with a terrifying number advantage, even a powerful monster beast in the middle stage of foundation building will not be able to resist.

This is their advantage and the talent they rely on for survival.

After understanding this, Zhou Daocheng paid more attention to the overall scale of the purple-armored soul-swallowing ants.

I learned from the queen that the number of the entire ant colony has exceeded 400,000, of which more than 300,000 are first-level low-grade purple-armored spirit-swallowing ants, which are mainly responsible for collecting spiritual honey and providing for the ant colony.

There are about 70,000 to 80,000 first-level medium-grade spirit-swallowing ants, which are usually mixed in the first-level low-grade ant colony to enhance the strength of the entire ant colony and at the same time alert to some dangers.

The number of first-grade purple-armored soul-swallowing ants has reached more than 10,000. Although they are generally equivalent to the strength of the seventh level of Qi Refining, they are still not to be underestimated.

Moreover, there are dozens of purple-armored soul-swallowing ants with the strength of the first-grade peak.

Today, the entire ant colony is spread underground in the Wugu Mountains, mainly spreading to the north, south and east, hunting the monsters in it and protecting the Wugu Mountains.

Most of the first-grade peak purple-armored soul-swallowing ants are stationed in various important areas as the main combat force, leading other first-grade late soul-swallowing ants to hunt monsters.

A full 400,000 purple-armored soul-swallowing ant colony! The strength is much stronger than 400,000 soul-swallowing ants. If they go all out, even Fu Qingya, who is at the fourth level of foundation building, can't resist it at all, and it is even enough to fight against the fifth and sixth level of foundation building.

At this moment, this terrifying ant colony truly shows its potential and threat beyond imagination.

At least for now, the safety of the entire Wugufang City is greatly guaranteed, and it has completely established a foothold in this area.

In order to make the ant colony develop better, Zhou Daocheng took the initiative to make some adjustments, such as the arrangement of the purple-armored spirit-devouring ants and the direction of future development.

The west side of the entire Wugu Mountain Range is the entrance. Generally speaking, the ant colony will not develop in this direction, which is also to avoid being discovered.
