As ti passed by the second, a Red Fla Golden Beetle was the first to break through the cocoon that confined it.
Its body was more than a foot long, completely covered in a layer of fiery red armor, which shimred with a tallic sheen, resembling burning flas.
Six sturdy legs extended from either side of its body, each leg covered in sharp barbs, making it look extrely aggressive.
Soon after, several other Red Fla Golden Beetles also broke free from their cocoons.
They had all remarkably reached the third rank level, compared to before, everything had undergone earth-shattering changes.
The presence radiating from these Red Fla Golden Beetles was so powerful and fierce that an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator might be terrified out of their wits.
"At last, the years of effort weren’t in vain!"
Witnessing this exhilarating scene, Xu Ping’s lips involuntarily curled upwards.
Although the actual capabilities of these four Red Fla Golden Beetles have yet to be tested, just judging from the aura they emitted, their strength probably won’t be inferior to third-rank upper-grade Demon Beasts.
Yet, Xu Ping was a bit curious whether their strength had reached the quasi-fourth rank level.
"Hiss hiss!"
The four Red Fla Golden Beetles, which had just completed their evolution, keenly sensed Xu Ping’s presence and excitedly let out hissing sounds.
They all flew toward Xu Ping, exuding a strong sense of hunger.
"Hungry?"
Xu Ping wasn’t surprised by this, after all, they had just gone through a decade-long evolution process, so feeling hungry now was perfectly normal.
Imdiately, Xu Ping took out a large piece of third-rank Demon Beast Flesh from the Storage Ring and tossed it to the four Red Fla Golden Beetles.
"Hiss hiss!"
After letting out a hiss, the four Red Fla Golden Beetles began to devour it ravenously.
They ate up three large pieces of third-rank Demon Beast Flesh from Xu Ping before they were full.
"Now that you’re full, co with ."
"Let see your strength after evolution."
After instructing them, Xu Ping walked out of the insect chamber.
"Hiss hiss!"
The four Red Fla Golden Beetles let out a hiss in response and followed Xu Ping.
Even though these four Red Fla Golden Beetles evolved to the third rank level, they still couldn’t speak.
However, their intelligence had increased considerably; at least they could now understand what Xu Ping was saying.
...
An hour later.
"Not bad, not bad, these four third-rank Red Fla Golden Beetles didn’t disappoint at all."
Seeing the four Red Fla Golden Beetles express affection towards him, Xu Ping couldn’t help but smile.
After an hour of testing, he now had an extrely clear and in-depth understanding of the capabilities of these Red Fla Golden Beetles.
Take their defensive power, for example; even when facing a full-force attack from a Nascent Soul Cultivator, thoroughly destroying these Red Fla Golden Beetles would be no easy task.
If all four Red Fla Golden Beetles attacked together and worked as one to entangle a Nascent Soul Cultivator for a while, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
Undoubtedly, these four Red Fla Golden Beetles could play a more significant role than his Sword Array and Puppets now.
"Maybe I can try using these Red Fla Golden Beetles to cultivate ’Armor Refining Skill’."
Xu Ping stroked his chin and muttered thoughtfully to himself.
The Armor Refining Skill was a special Secret Technique recorded in the Demon Beast heritage previously provided by Zhou Tianle.
This Secret Technique could refine wild insects and Demon Beasts, turning them into a special kind of armor.
This armor was extraordinarily strong, significantly enhancing one’s defensive power and strength.
Moreover, this Secret Technique was unique; it would not harm the lives of the wild insects and Demon Beasts, making it evidently suitable for his current situation.
The Red Fla Golden Beetles were already known for their formidable defensive power, so if they were refined into armor, it should be no problem to withstand attacks from a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Should his Body Refining level break through to third-rank upper-grade, along with this set of special puppet armor, he might very well have the power to face a Nascent Soul Cultivator head-on.
"Though I’m not sure if these four Red Fla Golden Beetles are enough to forge a full-body armor."
Xu Ping suppressed his excitent, contemplated for a mont, then shook his head.
"Probably not. Judging by the size of these four Red Fla Golden Beetles, the materials are far from sufficient, at most, they can only forge an inner armor."
"To forge a complete full-body armor, I would need at least a dozen, maybe even twenty."
However, even if only an inner armor could be made, it wouldn’t impact Xu Ping’s plans for the future.
After all, even just an inner armor would significantly enhance his strength.
"Once my cultivation is fully realized, perhaps I can return to that lava world in Yue Country to find more Red Fla Golden Beetles for nurturing," Xu Ping thought to himself.
After all, even at the third-rank level, the Red Fla Golden Beetles have great utility even when he breaks through to the Nascent Soul Realm, not to ntion their potential for further evolution.
"Rushing this won’t work, it needs to be done gradually. The urgent matter now is to successfully cultivate the ’Armor Refining Skill’."
After pacifying the Red Fla Golden Beetles, Xu Ping turned back to the secret chamber, ready to devote himself wholeheartedly to the research on the ’Armor Refining Skill’.
...
...
A year later.
The atmosphere in the secret chamber was oppressive and tense.
Xu Ping’s expression was solemn as he chanted the Magic Technique with his hands.
Strands of azure Mana shot out from his fingertips like agile snakes, wrapping precisely around the four Red Fla Golden Beetles lying on the ground.
"Hiss hiss!"
At this mont, they felt the embrace of Mana and let out a series of "hiss hiss" cries.
With the continuous infusion of Mana, the bodies of the Red Fla Golden Beetles gradually emanated a strange radiance, and then transford into a stream of light that rapidly intertwined around Xu Ping’s upper body.
