The combination of the tree-man avatar and the bees is perfect as a stand-in for Bee Daoist.
Additionally, the little spirit fox and the three-colored deer have been nurtured to Tier One perfection and are accumulating for a breakthrough to Tier Two.
As for the little stone spirit, it has slept until now.
Because it slept beside the Dark Iron Tree and Spirit Vein, it experienced significant growth even in its slumber.
The one with the greatest increase in strength is the little flower demon. With Qi Ping’s plant growth and support from the Spirit Vein, it is nearly breaking through to Mid Stage Tier Two, the fastest among all of Qi Ping’s animal companions!
With the increasingly skillful use of the Hundred Eyes Demon Realm talent, it has gradually beco a trump card in Qi Ping’s hand.
"For the tree-man avatar, taking the Earth Armor Bee and Scout Bee should be enough..."
Although Yaya and the little flower demon are powerful, they absolutely cannot venture out lightly. They can only be taken by the main body, using natural perception and deduction to engage in battles with full confidence.
"As for the array, using an array plate inscribed with ordinary spiritual objects will do..."
The Nether Stone Scale Armor is one of the lifebound spiritual artifacts Qi Ping intends to nurture, having been nurtured within the Dark Iron Tree for many years, and must not be lost.
More importantly, using spiritual objects not native to the territory makes it less likely to expose the existence of the Nether Stone Scale Armor.
....
After spending a week crafting two sets of array plates, Qi Ping controlled the tree-man avatar, taking the Earth Armor Bee and Scout Bee and left the territory.
His main body remained within the territory, focusing on cultivating the Blood Fla Clothing, to quickly push its efficacy to the limits of plant growth.
Controlling two bodies simultaneously is not difficult for Qi Ping and is, in fact, quite a routine task.
As long as neither requires tasks that demand intense focus or divine soul attention, it works well.
For example, attempting to comprehend the true aning of the law while studying magic will only reduce efficiency.
However, when one is out on a mission or in battle, and the main body is cultivating spiritual dicine, it generally has no impact.
"Using the tree-man avatar feels really great!"
At this mont, Qi Ping, wearing a blood-red magic robe, exudes an intense murderous aura. His sowhat attractive face displays a relaxed smile.
This blood-red magic robe was made by mining so ores at a random place and refining them with the Beast King’s Fla. Besides being stylish, it has no special effect and rely complents the appearance style of the Thousand Transformations Technique.
Since this identity is ant to disguise the main body, the greater the difference in style, the better.
After leaving Qingshi County and obtaining the token from the Mysterious rchant Association, Qi Ping started looking for suitable tasks.
Refresh! Refresh! Refresh!
To choose the most appropriate task, Qi Ping refreshed ten tis in succession.
His Spirit Stones on the black market decreased from 5800 to 3800.
[Black Market Spirit Stones: 3800]
[Black Market Points: 3100]
Currently, there are a total of fifteen tasks displayed on Qi Ping’s token.
Originally, there should have been seventeen tasks, but because he refreshed it seven tis five years ago, so tasks were completed by others.
The completion of a assassination task and a task to annihilate a force has reduced the number by two, which isn’t too low a completion rate for seven attempts over five years.
"Soone finished two tasks? It seems soone else is recently executing tasks from the Mysterious Black Market..."
This slightly surprised Qi Ping because knowing the strength of this organization requires considerable courage and capability to oppose them.
Yet Qi Ping was not overly concerned because the allure of the Mysterious Black Market is indeed substantial!
Next, Qi Ping ticulously reviewed the seventeen tasks on the token, deciding to start with the simplest ones. Given the premise that the avatar is destined to self-destruct, starting with simpler tasks ans more can be completed.
Moreover, from the mont he took the tree-man avatar out, Qi Ping never intended to bring it back. Concluding with True Understanding Self-Destruction could better conceal the existence of the tree-man avatar.
Opting for the avatar’s death as the conclusion is the best way to make the enemies believe they have exacted revenge, allowing Qi Ping to secretly use the earned black market points to enhance his strength.
Self-destruction is the fate Qi Ping assigned to the tree-man avatar.
"Let’s start with this one!"
"The Qi Family in Lishui County... There are two early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivators among them..."
"Every year, after the Cyan Origin Sect recruits disciples, they search for infants and toddlers suitable for producing Blood Ginseng in Lishui County and the nearby mortal world through Immortal Master recruitnt and covert investigation channels...
"Originally, Lishui County had four major families. After the war, two perished, one fell to a Qi Refining clan, while only the Qi family remained almost intact..."
"That’s rather interesting!"
The fierce battle previously fought by the Cyan Origin Sect made Lishui County a fierce battleground, with two of the four major families annihilated, yet the trailing Qi family remained nearly unhard, raising Qi Ping’s suspicion of any conspiracy.
"In that case, it’s likely that the Cyan Origin Sect and other sects understand what the Qi family represents, thus refraining from taking action."
"But are they turning a blind eye, or are they complicit?"
Upon discovering this issue, Qi Ping grew curious about the relationships between these regional powers and these mysterious organizations.
...
After deciding to take action, Qi Ping imdiately set off for the Qi Family in Lishui County.
Given the long distance, it took Qi Ping over three days to arrive even with the pace of a Foundation Establishnt cultivator.
Upon reaching the Qi Family, Qi Ping wasted no ti, dispatching the Scout Bee skilled in stealth and reconnaissance to survey the situation.
However, soon after the Scout Bee was dispatched, it reported back that the Qi Family was protected by an array, which would alert the people inside if intruded upon.
But this did not pose a problem for Qi Ping. The rather ordinary Tier Two low-level array in the Qi Family was discreetly breached by Qi Ping after spending a little ti, allowing the Scout Bee to enter.
Thereafter, Qi Ping lay in wait outside.
He needed to confirm whether the Qi Family was truly manufacturing blood food; the claims from the Mysterious Black Market could not be trusted without verification.
But it wasn’t long before Qi Ping’s face grew dark with fury.
"Buzz... (Boss, I found over three thousand blood foods made from human infant corpses!)"
"What? Over three thousand?" Qi Ping was incredulous, wondering if he’d misheard.
Over three thousand, not just ordinary infants, almost all of whom were selected for cultivation aptitude or special constitutions!
In a way, they might represent a substantial portion of the potential immortality cultivation geniuses born in this area. During warti, they embody the hope of the Human Race’s future, yet they’ve all beco soone’s blood food now?
"Buzz... (Yes, Boss, there are over three thousand, plus another twenty or more children are currently being cleaned, skinned, and prepared...)"
