Chapter 213: Chapter 207: Life-Saving Benefactor Bee_2

So they would definitely take turns to go out to collect honey, and take turns to cultivate at home.

By then, if the worker bees in this area stay at home to cultivate for three to five months, he would be stuck inside.

How can that compare to the current situation?

He can steal 60 vitality points in an hour, and steal up to 1,440 points in a day, equivalent to 1.5 Ninth-Grade Ginseng Vitality Pills.

It’s so enticing, truly delicious!

However, the only thing to consider is that there must be a Great Demon in this bee colony, possibly at the peak of Grade Two, or there might even be a small chance of encountering a First-Grade Thousand-Year Bee King.

But for this kind of thing, it’s best to try first.

For this reason, Wang Wu even took out the Hundred-Change Ruyi Demon Leaf that he hasn’t used for a long time. According to the precise description of the attribute bar after advancement, it could roughly increase his Passive Concealment by 0.5 levels.

So, even without activating the Concealing Demon Pill, he can achieve a Passive Concealment of 17+2.2+0.5=19.7.

It’s worth the risk to give it a try.

Next, Wang Wu silently operated the Ice and Fire Dual Spirit Roots while using the Inner Breathing Technique, converting all the absorbed vitality into Qi and blood as much as possible, then running Qi and Blood Circulation to refine and purify it onto the Demon Pill. This is also part of the Demon Pill’s cultivation and upgrade system.

In the blink of an eye, he had safely nestled inside this super beehive for three days, and only then did a few worker bees start returning to the worker bee living area next to him. Obviously, Wang Wu’s judgment was accurate. It might take them several days or even a month to collect honey outside.

Upon returning, they first have to enter the central beeswax tower, unload the pollen collected, and then convert it into nectar. During this process, a certain amount of nectar’s spiritual Qi would dissipate, which might be the reason Wang Wu can gain vitality points through respiration.

At this moment, Wang Wu was closely observing these future neighbors of his. He noticed that the returning worker bees would also carry a small amount of food, a solid being about the size of a palm, entirely golden yellow, resembling a cake, with some variation in quantity and size.

The worker bees that brought back the most food were the largest and lived closest to the outskirts, each being as long as three meters or three and a half meters.

After returning, they would eat some food, then enter a certain sleep-like cultivation state. During this process, a bright source of light would emerge in their abdomen, traveling throughout their body, and occasionally be expelled to repair bodily damage.

This light source is the Demon Pill.

The largest Demon Pill among them is egg-sized, the smallest walnut-sized.

Apart from number, their size exceeds Wang Wu’s Demon Pill.

It is worth noting that his three Demon Pills were initially only the size of a fingernail; later, after advancement, they became walnut-sized.

This means that the strongest among these worker bees might even be Five-Grade, with most others averaging Sixth Grade, and even the weakest being Seventh Grade.

The good news is, regardless of worker bees or soldier bees, they have been unable to detect Wang Wu during his days in hiding.

Moreover, he hasn’t seen a Second-Grade or First-Grade Great Demon. Perhaps the Bee King or Queen Bee are at the topmost or bottommost areas.

Once he confirmed safety, Wang Wu became reassured and boldly concealed himself. He needed to activate Qi and Blood Circulation first to heal hidden injuries within his body. That previous wave of Evil Wind Bone Plague really hurt him.

After about three months of such adjustments, his status finally returned to how it was before.

Then, he began formal cultivation, relying on the daily gain of over a thousand vitality points, based on previous foundations laid down, using the Inner Breathing Technique, Qi and Blood Circulation, and three Demon Pills. No matter how much vitality he gained daily, he could easily refine it all.

In the blink of an eye, another three months passed, and Wang Wu’s sixteenth year in the Cultivation Realm came to an end, with the attribute bar now displaying his age as 17 and his life at the third stage of the Youth Body, showing 14 years.

He is growing day by day, meaning in the literal sense.

Even though all the vitality points were refined by the Demon Pill, practically one-third still went to the strengthening of his entire body’s flesh, bones, and muscles.

Equivalent to growing one centimeter taller and gaining ten kilograms daily.

Over the past three months, he had already adjusted the space three times just for spatial adjustments.

“Continuing to grow at this pace isn’t sustainable. Although it’s a good phenomenon, it’s not amusing if one day this large pit collapses.”

“It would be great if I could establish another Central Hub.”

Wang Wu contemplated this, but this was just a thought. The three Demon Pills had already, through countless Qi and Blood Circulation operations, proven to be the best model.

Very soon, he would welcome one of the Demon Pill’s advancement, progressing from Eighth Grade to Seventh Grade. It was the one engraved with Danger Perception, and now it’s different from the two Demon Pills engraved with Passive Concealment, just like triplets who, after growing up, have different lives, encounters, and families, no longer seeking full synchronization.

Nevertheless, Wang Wu discovered an opportunity because of this.

He forcibly restrained the advancement pace of this Demon Pill by regulating Qi and Blood Circulation.

His reasoning is that although the three Demon Pills can be likened to triplets, they are not genuine triplets. Wang Wu may need them to each have their development, but there has to be an overarching, unified system that can share experiences during the regular exchanges, instantly respond, share damage, maintain a deep reservoir, and take on greater risks.

For instance, the last time he got backstabbed by the Evil Wind, infected with the Evil Wind Bone Plague, and there was no life value left, the three Demon Pills couldn’t help directly. That painful lesson deeply impressed Wang Wu.

Therefore, a fourth Demon Pill must be established as coordination and backup, much like how the East Sea Dragon King acts as the big brother, aiding the other three Demon Pills’ growth, offering shelter, cushioning, and emotional support.

In fact, Wang Wu has a similar cultivation structure, that is, the Central Heart, tied with the Heart of the Earth main talent, serving as the ultra-core hub.

It can even be used as the fourth Demon Pill or even refined directly into a Demon Pill.

It’s a matter of one thought.

But Wang Wu believes the Heart of the Earth concerns matters as significant as lifespan and national treasures and shouldn’t be easily moved.

He is still young, with plenty of time to figure things out and doesn’t feel the pressure from lifespan for now, but what about in the future?

He cannot blindly build based on his current power demands.

Superb planning is the essence.

Therefore, although the Heart, being the ultra-core hub, sees the most Qi and Blood vitality flow daily, it absolutely does not undertake subordinate tasks.

It maintains its ultra-core position, leaving enough room, enough authority, to provide maximum support for future lifespan needs.

Thus, forming the fourth Demon Pill has a proper justification. Well, to be honest, it boils down to having too much vitality to be capricious.

Also, Wang Wu’s foundation is overly robust.

He even contemplated linking the fourth Demon Pill with the Ice and Fire Spirit Root, enabling the interchange of spiritual Qi and vitality points.

However, after carefully considering, he decisively gave up because it’s overstepping bounds! This is overestimating oneself! This is pursuing blind expansion that goes against the objective developmental laws of things.

The only thing capable of linking the Ice and Fire Spirit Root in the future is the ultra-core main Heart.

But this requires continued growth of the Ice and Fire Spirit Root. Only when it can cultivate into a system similar to the Ice and Fire Spirit Pill can it connect.

Now, such actions would shuffle these two systems of Innate and Acquired, leading to self-destruction.

Indeed, Wang Wu’s body currently operates with two major systems, one being the Innate Cultivation System, mainly rooted in the bloodline, and the other, the Acquired Cultivation System, primarily based on the Spirit Root.

They do not interfere with each other; the interaction is indirect, using the physical body as the bridge to communicate.

After establishing the preliminary theory, he performs fine adjustments and research to accumulate enough data before it’s possible to complete the cohesion of a fourth Demon Pill.

Not simply assuming it will work because it’s a matter of using the Inner Breathing Technique and deploying Qi and Blood Circulation, but instead ensuring viable implementation without damaging the main heart or disrupting the two cultivation systems through step-by-step empirical refinement.

Certainly, it will also require a massive data volume accumulation…
