Chapter 325 Master of Spiritual Fertilizer: Bixia Earth Dragon, Earth Core Stone Turtle
According to the exploration of the earth vein ants, there are currently three races facing ecological difficulties, and they are all spiritual beasts with extraordinary bloodlines.

The reason why the ground vein ants can detect such things is because the ground vein ants themselves are beneficial insects underground in the world of immortal cultivation. Although they are powerful, they will basically never actively harm any living creature unless they encounter creatures that destroy the ground veins.

Therefore, most underground creatures have a very good impression of the ground vein ants. Based on the instinct in their blood, they are very welcoming of the ground vein ants appearing in the living environment near them.

It is also because of this that the subterranean ants can communicate and rejoice with other underground races so smoothly.

This discovery also made Qi Ping quite happy. It turned out that he was right to choose the ground vein ants. The state of the ground vein ants was also very suitable for Qi Ping to find spiritual beasts that needed help and to solve ecological problems. Otherwise, if Qi Ping looked for them by himself, it would probably take him a long time to find them, and he didn't know how much time would be wasted.

In addition, in the past few decades, with the help of the third-level spirit vein, the number of ground vein ants has exceeded 100,000! In addition, the ground vein ants run very fast underground, which is very suitable for underground exploration.

Although most of them are only the second-level bloodlines with the lowest bloodline concentration, they are completely sufficient as an exploration legion and for combing ordinary ground veins. With so many ground vein ants, Qi Ping's speed in exploring the underground world has greatly increased.

At the same time, Qi Ping also gained a lot of opportunities and spiritual objects, some of which he planned to give to some friends and people with whom he had a good relationship, such as Old Man Zhou, Han Li, Zhang Daniu, Wang He, and Sister Nan.
These people had helped Qi Ping a lot in the past, and these resources were what Qi Ping could now easily explore and obtain. Moreover, when the number of earth vein ants reached millions or tens of millions, the entire underground world of the immortal cultivation world would be the object of his exploration. By then, Qi Ping would have no shortage of resources.

For Qi Ping now, ordinary resources are no longer a problem. What really poses a challenge to Qi Ping are the top-level spiritual plants and skills that are firmly controlled by the upper echelons, as well as those mysterious existences like those that destroyed the Bichuan Domain. These are the real threats to Qi Ping.

In the memory of the Spirit of Mountains and Rivers, among the two waves of people who harvested the Bichuan Domain and turned it into the Barbarian Domain, Qi Ping was more familiar with the aura of one group of people, that was the Immortal Alliance!

Qi Ping’s worry now is that if Qingtian Domain is developed well, will this group of people reap the Qingtian Domain just like they reap the Bichuan Domain?

After considering this problem, Qi Ping decided to shift his focus to the underground world!
Starting from the Qingtian Realm, it spreads, makes a fortune quietly, cultivates a race that can provide itself with power enhancement and life force, and at the same time makes the Qingtian Realm grow stronger!
In this way, even if a major war breaks out one day, Qi Ping can transfer all the important people to the underground fortress and turn the war into an underground battle that he is most familiar with and has an advantage in!

According to the information provided by the earth vein ants, Qi Ping soon arrived at the residence of a clan of spirit insects.

A group of Bixia earth dragons that looked like earthworms, the size of arms, and had thin and dry bodies appeared in front of Qi Ping.

The Bixia Earth Dragon is a second-level scavenger spirit beast in the world of immortal cultivation. It is surrounded by a colorful glow and feeds on dead leaves, tree roots, rotten leaves, corpses, and feces.

However, although they are second-level spirit insects, their combat effectiveness is very poor. They are slow, weak in intelligence, and have low physical defense.
The reason why they are called second-level spirit insects is that they have stronger bite force and digestion ability than the same level. They have a keen sense of smell and can detect nearby food. Even hard and worthless dry bones can be slowly corroded and digested.

The reason why a weakling like the Bixia Earth Dragon can still survive is mainly because its body is filled with extremely complex poisons and contains very little spiritual power.

What is ultimately important is that in the process of digesting food, it excretes a kind of [wood spirit vitality]. This wood spirit vitality can accelerate the growth of spiritual plants and is a very beneficial insect in the world of immortal cultivation.

In ancient times, there were quite a lot of Bixia earth dragons. Because of the presence of spiritual beasts like Bixia earth dragons, there were many spiritual plants in the world of cultivation, and it was extremely prosperous.
It's a pity that now, with the withering of heaven and earth, all things with spiritual energy have been utilized, and the Bixia Earth Dragons are left with no leftovers, and have slowly disappeared in history. Only some large sects still keep some in captivity, but Bixia Earth Dragons are easily frightened and difficult to keep in captivity. Even the Qingyuan Sect does not keep any in captivity.

Now, the group of skinny and dry Bixia earth dragons in front of them can only survive on a little bit of leftovers. If they hadn’t met Qi Ping today, they would have completely disappeared in thousands of years.

If we encounter some hungry spirit beasts that will eat anything, it will probably be faster.

At this moment, Qi Ping was looking at this group of beneficial insects that transformed the discarded items and things that were difficult to decompose by themselves from the world of immortal cultivation into a beneficial force to nourish the world of immortal cultivation, and he felt admiration in his heart.

Such a great guy can't just disappear like this!
"Come with me, little ones!"

Qi Ping looked at the startled Bixia earth dragons in front of him. When they realized that a powerful creature had appeared, they immediately ran around in panic.

In response to this, Qi Ping had no choice but to cover them with the aura of a druid.

The druid's effect was immediate, and he quickly pacified these low-intelligence and friendly-natured insects.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take you to a lot of delicious places."

"Delicious? Okay. I'm hungry, so I want to eat something delicious." After accepting Qi Ping's words, Bixia Earth Dragon responded stumblingly.

Without the effect of the Druid Animal Companion Contract, the communication sensitivity of these spirit insects is indeed not high.

After obtaining the consent of the Bixia Earth Dragon, Qi Ping brought them back to his territory.

Within the territory, Qi Ping generally deals with various fallen leaves, dead branches, medicinal herb branches, residues from animal companions, etc., which are produced in the past. He burns them directly into ashes with flames, and then continues to use them as plant ash.

But now it is much easier to deal with with the Bixia Earth Dragon.

"The most important thing is to excrete a kind of [Wood Spiritual Energy] to accelerate the growth of spiritual plants. Although the effect is much worse than the Druid's [Plant Growth], the advantage of Bixia Earth Dragon is that there are more of them!"

"If I had met this group of Bixia Earth Dragons when I was just starting to practice, I would have been so happy that I would have died."

"But it's not bad now. With their help, the spiritual plants in my territory will grow much faster in the future."

When the base of spiritual medicine is not large, more plants can be cultivated. However, if the number of Bixia earth dragons is cultivated to tens of thousands, the effect produced in that case will not be something that plant growth can catch up with.

"That seems to be a good idea. We won't have to worry about the resources for breeding animal companions and producing troops in the future. If these Bixia Earth Dragons can make further progress in the future, they can play an even greater role."

"Also, let's wait until there are more Bixia Earth Dragons. There are still some places in the underground world that are suitable for Bixia Earth Dragons to survive. When the time comes, let some of them go there, and we can also produce more [Wood Spiritual Energy]!"

As his thoughts wandered, Qi Ping discovered that as the scale of the Bixia Earth Dragon grew, the profits it could bring seemed a bit outrageous.

When Qi Ping becomes the true master of Qingtian Domain in the future, there will be many places where the Bixia Earth Dragon can be used. For example, the second- and third-level spiritual veins currently existing in Qingtian Domain are very suitable for the survival of Bixia Earth Dragon, and some first-level spiritual veins also have great development value.

Thinking of this, Qi Ping gradually realized a problem, that is, the development of the world of immortal cultivation is also in the hands of man, and appropriate large-scale cultivation and production, such as the cultivation of Bixia earth dragons, is something that can not only increase the output of spiritual medicines, but also bring huge benefits to the world of immortal cultivation.

"Eat, eat, these are all yours!"

Qi Ping placed a bunch of branches and leaves of high-level spiritual plants in front of the Bixia Earth Dragons.

When the Bixia earth dragons saw the food Qi Ping gave them, they all started trembling with excitement.

Oh my god! What kind of divine food is this!

Even the most marginal things among these foods are the best foods they have ever tasted!
"Thank you!"

"Thank you so much!" The excitement in the hearts of the Bixia Earth Dragons at this moment was simply beyond words.

Qi Ping was also extremely happy about this. Now that he had gained such a group of powerful guys, he would be able to earn more spirit stones from his future farming career. By then, Qi Ping would also need a lot of spirit stones to trade things with other domains.

Another emotion is the joy of saving the Bixia Earth Dragon itself.

This kind of thing that can allow the world of immortal cultivation to develop harmoniously is something that should make people happy. What’s important in the end is that this is his territory!

After Qi Ping completed the protection of the Bixia Earth Dragon, he found that he had once again gained the life force from the Bixia Earth Dragon, and for some reason, the quality of this life force was extremely high.

"Maybe it's because the Bixia Earth Dragon is a special creature that is beneficial to the world of immortal cultivation?" Qi Ping guessed in his heart.

This also further strengthened Qi Ping's determination to develop and expand the Bixia earth dragon clan.

If the number of Bixia Earth Dragons could grow to one hundred thousand or one million, wouldn't the life force he obtained explode?

"In addition to the power of living beings, the Lord of Mountains and Rivers can control a little more power, but the increase is not large."

Qi Ping estimated that the Bixia Earth Dragon had not yet begun to bring real value to the Qingtian Domain. Perhaps when the Bixia Earth Dragon began to have a huge impact on the Qingtian Domain, that would be the time when his power of control would increase dramatically.

"Not bad, not bad, let's move on to the next one!"

With the encouragement brought by the Bixia Earth Dragon, Qi Ping couldn't help but look forward to these things even more.

After pacifying the Bixia Earth Dragons and helping them adapt to the environment of the territory, Qi Ping also gave them the [Favor of Mountains and Rivers] and then left without stopping, heading for the next troubled tribe.

After traveling for more than two days in the underground world, Qi Ping arrived at the location of the second race.

Deep in a crustal layer, Qi Ping discovered a group of stone turtles with signs of decay all over their bodies.

"Carrion disease?"

With just one glance, Qi Ping recognized the disease that plagued the Earth's Core Stone Turtle.

Qi Ping also specialized in studying books on diseases in the world of immortal cultivation.

Because when Qi Ping first learned that a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Stage had died of illness, Qi Ping felt that his worldview was shaken.

They are all cultivating immortals, but can cultivators in the Void Refining Stage still get sick and die? Isn't this funny? Qi Ping originally thought that only cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage would be troubled by diseases and plagues.

But after truly understanding them, Qi Ping realized that there are quite a few diseases in the world of immortal cultivation that can threaten the Spirit Transformation Stage and the Void Refining Stage, they are just extremely rare. The horror and difficulty of these diseases are not comparable to those in the mortal world.

Some of them can even be described as weird and more terrifying than many curses.

The only thing to be thankful for is that this level of disease is extremely rare, and usually one can only be infected by visiting some horrible forbidden areas.

Fortunately, the rotten flesh disease of this group of earth core stone turtles was not particularly troublesome for Qi Ping. Others might find it tricky, but for Qi Ping it was an easy task.

After completing the communication with the stone turtles in the center of the earth, Qi Ping began the treatment.

The process was also very simple and crude. Qi Ping directly used illusion to control the stone turtles at the center of the earth to reduce their pain.

Then he directly used the extremely yang spiritual power and the fire of the beast king to burn away all the rotten flesh and roots of disease.

Finally, perform a healing spell to completely complete the treatment. The Sun's True Fire is the nemesis of almost all diseases.

Under Qi Ping's operation, the first geocentric stone turtle completed treatment quickly.

The other stone turtles were also extremely excited and happy to see this scene. The rotten flesh disease that had troubled them for so long was finally cured!
The way they looked at Qi Ping became more and more respectful and admiring!

After spending some time, Qi Ping quickly completed the treatment of more than 30 earth core stone turtles.

"Thank you, our most respected friend!"

After the treatment was completed, all the stone turtles expressed their most sincere gratitude to Qi Ping.

Qi Ping also gained a lot of life force because more than half of these long-lived earth-core stone turtles were at the second level!
There are even two who have reached the second level of perfection. If they were not troubled by rotten flesh disease, they could probably try to break through to the golden elixir stage.

However, Qi Ping warned them that it would be better for them to hide for the next two hundred years and not to think about breaking through to the Golden Elixir stage for the time being, otherwise the Stone Turtles at the Center of the Earth would probably end up being eaten.

The stone turtles at the center of the earth also followed Qi Ping's advice and decided to settle down for two hundred years first. This lifespan was completely affordable for the stone turtles at the center of the earth.

Qi Ping was also quite happy about this. After all, he was now the lord of mountains and rivers, and the power of the stone turtles in the earth's core was equivalent to his power to a certain extent, so naturally the stronger these stone turtles were, the better.

Before leaving, Qi Ping threw another [Mountains and Rivers Favor] at them.

This group of earth core stone turtles is good and worth training. It also fits his strategy of building an underground fortress.

After leaving the Stone Turtle at the Center of the Earth, Qi Ping headed to the location of the last race.

Originally Qi Ping guessed that this should be a problem that could be easily solved, but after seeing the blood-colored vines growing in their flesh and blood, Qi Ping frowned tightly.

"Is this... a parasitic blood species?"

"Also... this is the aura of the Grand Elder!"

Qi Ping's face suddenly darkened.
