After Qi Ping gained the [Brewing Artisan] Talent, he could clearly feel that the effects of blood ginseng in strengthening the body and enhancing spiritual power were purified and strengthened in the golden marrow honey.
The reason Gold Marrow Bees can do this, besides removing the mixed elements in the blood ginseng, is also because they have incorporated spiritual materials with special effects such as century-old pine oil and early sun spiritual dew.
Essentially, Gold Marrow Bees, with the [Brewing Artisan] Talent, draw upon the strengths of various spiritual medicines and materials, avoid their weaknesses, and through clever Fusion, create golden marrow honey with the best possible effects.
"According to this principle, it should also be fine to use other spiritual medicines besides blood ginseng as the main material."
"Gold Marrow Bees are simply miniature Alchemists!"
After gaining a deep understanding of the Gold Marrow Bees' brewing ability, Qi Ping looked at these Bees with dazzling golden color and praised them from the bottom of his heart.
Perhaps there is still a considerable gap compared to true Alchemists, and their upper limit is estimated to be within the Qi Refining Stage, but for Qi Ping, this is already very good.
Those precious elixirs, especially those that improve physical constitution and cultivation, are all ridiculously expensive.
Even if Qi Ping sold the batch of blood ginseng he found, he probably wouldn't be able to buy much.
Therefore, the importance and value of Gold Marrow Bees, which can continuously brew honey like little Alchemists, are self-evident to Qi Ping.
"However, Gold Marrow Bees also have limitations. They can only instinctively brew honey that is most effective for their own kind. If there are other spiritual medicines or spiritual flowers nearby, the effect of the honey they brew will also change accordingly."
"So, if I want to brew honey with other special effects, I must first study them with them."
At this point, the use of Qi Ping's [Brewing Artisan] Talent is reflected. With this Talent, Qi Ping can fully understand the principle and steps of Gold Marrow Bees brewing honey, because this Talent was originally shared from the Gold Marrow Bees themselves.
Therefore, as long as he takes the lead in researching and experimenting with the Gold Marrow Bees, he can actively produce honey with various special effects.
He can also try to research how to maximize and enhance the effect of a certain spiritual medicine.
"Perhaps, based on the abilities of the Gold Marrow Bees and my Brewing Artisan Talent, and with the help of some alchemical knowledge, I can try to develop various kinds of honey with special effects. As long as the development is successful, the Gold Marrow Bees can slowly become my exclusive Alchemists."
The only trouble is that the inheritance of alchemical knowledge is too precious. This top-tier skill in the Cultivation World is not something Qi Ping can access at the moment.
What Qi Ping can do now is to get some ordinary knowledge about elixirs and spiritual medicines.
In addition to alchemical knowledge, there might be another problem in the future, which is the First Order Intermediate Bloodline limitation of the Gold Marrow Bees.
This First Order Intermediate Bloodline is strong for the current Qi Ping, but it is foreseeable that it will definitely become a bottleneck for the Gold Marrow Bees to break through in the future.
With sufficient resources and the skill [Beast King's Grace], it is not difficult for Gold Marrow Bees to reach First Order Late, but breaking through to Second-Order is relatively difficult.
If the Gold Marrow Bees cannot break through to Second-Order in the future, the effect of brewing honey will remain at the Qi Refining Stage. In that case, their role will be very small during the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Although at that time, he could completely use the Gold Marrow Bees' honey brewing ability to earn spiritual stones without worrying about being coveted.
However, Qi Ping is extremely optimistic about the future development potential of this ability of the Gold Marrow Bees, so he still wants them to continue to grow.
The Gold Marrow Bees are also Qi Ping's first Animal Companion, and Qi Ping naturally wants them to go further with him.
"I'll think of a way later to see if I can improve the Bloodline level of the Gold Marrow Bee Swarm!"
"Buzz buzz... (Boss, why are you looking at us like that?)"
"Buzz buzz... (Is the honey not good?)"
"Buzz buzz... (No way, Boss's aura has clearly gotten stronger!)"
The Gold Marrow Bees looked at Qi Ping looking at them so strangely, and their little brains started to get confused.
"No, the honey is very good, I was thinking about how amazing you all are!"
Qi Ping saw these lively little guys and praised them sincerely.
"Buzz buzz... (Oh, Boss, you praise us so much, we'll be shy!)"
"Buzz buzz... (As long as Boss likes it!)"
Hearing Qi Ping's praise, some Gold Marrow Bees happily spun in circles in the air.
After this interlude, Qi Ping slowly entered a new cultivation life.
Raising Bees, planting flowers, cultivating, cultivating blood ginseng daily...
The rhythm of life and cultivation was similar to before.
The bigger change was that previously raising one box of Black Little Bees was enough, but now the more Advanced Gold Marrow Bees have been added.
Qi Ping also needs to plant more flowers for this reason.
He also needs to spend time and energy cultivating blood ginseng, which consumes a lot of Qi Ping's mental and spiritual power.
However, every time he sees messages like [Druid Level Experience +1], [Plant Growth Skill Experience +1], Qi Ping feels that the effort is worthwhile.
Not only are there gains from blood ginseng, but Druid Level and skill experience are also steadily increasing.
The correct version is read at 6Ⅹ9ⅩbookⅩbar! The first novel is published at 6Ⅹ9 book bar. Read at 69 book bar.
This feeling of gaining something from effort is very satisfying for Qi Ping, much better than the situation where he put in effort before but didn't gain much.
In addition to the increase in Druid Level experience and Plant Growth skill experience, [Beast King's Grace Experience +1] would occasionally appear.
The increase in Beast King's Grace experience is because after Qi Ping cultivated relatively sufficient blood ginseng, the effect of the golden marrow honey has been continuously enhanced, and with sufficient high-level spiritual medicine, the overall strength of the Gold Marrow Bee Swarm is also gradually increasing.
This applies to both individual strength and the number of Bees. The Gold Marrow Bees are extremely worshipful of Qi Ping, their Boss, for this!
The enhancement of the Bee Swarm's overall strength is their greatest wish, and now this wish is being continuously fulfilled with the help of Qi Ping, their Boss!
"Buzz buzz... (Boss, your Talent is too amazing!)"
This is what the Gold Marrow Bees have said the most times.
However, even though the Bee Swarm's overall strength is continuously increasing, the rate of increase of Beast King's Grace is too slow compared to the rate of gaining level experience, more than ten times slower.
...
Compared to blood ginseng, cultivating ordinary flowers is much simpler.
Because it is spring, the humidity, soil, and spiritual energy in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range are quite good, providing an excellent living environment for ordinary flowers. Basically, sowing the seeds is enough for them to grow, and there is no need to use the Plant Growth skill.
The only thing to worry about is occasionally dealing with insect pests. Some insects, such as flower-eating insects and compound-eyed moths, can cause significant damage to flowers.
For these ordinary pests, all that is needed is to control spiritual energy to kill them when they are discovered. Qi Ping is already very familiar with this.
Unless there is a large-scale insect infestation that ruins these flowers before Qi Ping has time to discover it.
Such large-scale insect infestations are not common. Qi Ping has only seen it once in the more than five years he has been here. When he discovered this situation, more than half of the flowers on the mountain had been eaten, and Old Zhou spent a lot of effort to save a little.
That loss was quite significant.
However, now that Qi Ping has the ability to communicate with the Honeybees, he has already told them that if an insect infestation occurs, they must find him immediately and notify other Gold Marrow Bees to jointly eliminate the pests.
But compared to ordinary flowers, the difficulty of cultivating spiritual flowers is much higher...
