When the Blood Yuan True Monarch acted, Jiang Yan, who was far away on the periphery of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range, got the information.

Before he left Tianyun City, he had scattered a large number of red jade blood bees in all corners of the city, from ordinary streets and alleys to the interiors of the mansions of major families, especially in the mansions of those families, each of which was secretly dormant with a dozen to dozens of red jade blood bees, such as the Luo family, the Gu family, the Luo family, the Tianyun Martial Academy, and the City Lord's Mansion, and the number of surveillance arrangements exceeded hundred.

If you calculate the total amount, Jiang Yan left a total of two or three thousand red jade blood bees in Tianyun City, and he will receive and quickly analyze the memories transmitted by these monitors every once in a while, and basically know anything big at the first time.

The total number of red jade blood bees on Jiang Yan's hand was originally about 100,000, and after leaving a batch in Tianyun City, the rest were brought out by him, and then during the battle with the Blood Yuan True Monarch, in order to delay the time to escape, almost all of them were sent to death, and there were less than a thousand of them left, and more than half of these thousand were dormant larvae with no combat effectiveness.

Fortunately, the most important queen bee is still in his hands, although the bee colony has suffered heavy losses, but as long as the queen bee works hard, with its reproductive efficiency of producing thousands of offspring per day, it can restore the original size of the bee colony after two months.

But Jiang Yan couldn't wait that long, whether it was his own and Luo Li's cultivation needs, or the combat assistance when hunting strange beasts, he urgently needed the help of the Red Jade Blood Bee Swarm.

So Jiang Yan simply gave an order to the bee colony, breaking the convention of the bee colony, and ordering the larvae to develop nineteen more queen bees!

Originally, this was completely contrary to the habits of bee colonies, after all, according to convention, there can only be one queen bee in a bee colony, whether it is a foreign bee insect or an ordinary bee insect. But Jiang Yan doesn't care about this kind of thing, anyway, he controls all the bee colonies at the top, and the queen bees below are all subject to his rule, so he is naturally not afraid of them fighting among themselves.

If the larvae of the red jade blood bee want to develop into a queen bee, there is one condition that is necessary, that is, there must be sufficient blood crystals to feed it during its development, but fortunately, although Jiang Yan's inventory is not full in this regard, it is still enough to cultivate nineteen more queen bees.

Half a day later, with the unlimited supply of blood crystals, nineteen newborn queen bees were successfully born in the hive. Then Jiang Yan ordered them to start reproducing offspring with all their might, just like the original queen bee, to grow the colony.

A queen bee can produce thousands of offspring per day, and this efficiency can be increased several times in the case of sufficient energy reserves, reaching a scale of four or five thousand per day, and if twenty queen bees work together at full strength, it only takes one day to expand the bee colony to 100,000.

It took several hours for the larvae to develop into queen bees, and by the time the twenty queen bees were formed, the sky had already turned into night, and Jiang Yan also received the news of the change in the Naro family in Tianyun City at this time, which gave him a lot of urgency.

After the order to expand the bee colony with all his might, Jiang Yan waited for another half an hour. The number of ruby blood bees around him has recovered from hundreds to more than three thousand, which is enough to form a battle group and go out hunting strange beasts.

Unlike the queen bee, which takes half a day to develop, ordinary ruby blood bees, worker bees only need five minutes to develop from larvae, and it only takes ten minutes to develop into soldier bees, so Jiang Yan doesn't need to spend too much time waiting.

Coincidentally, at this time, Jiang Yan encountered another problem, that is, the inventory of red jade blood crystals began to run out. First of all, he used up a part of it when cultivating the queen bee, and then when the twenty queen bees were trying their best to reproduce their offspring, they needed to eat a large amount of blood crystals to replenish their energy consumption, Jiang Yan estimated that with the inventory in his hand, if he insisted on it for another three or four hours at most, there would be no blood crystals available, and then the expansion speed of the bee colony and his own cultivation needs would be affected.

'You have to go out hunting.' Looking at the dim sky outside, Jiang Yan made a decision, although it was not appropriate to go out at night, but now that the time was pressing, he couldn't care so much.

Jiang Yan picked up the main nest of the red jade blood bee and stuffed it into the hanging bag around his waist, this waist bag is sewn with very tough high-grade alien animal skin, although it looks small, but the waist bag is full of things, it can be said that Jiang Yan is the most satisfying work when studying rune refining tools these days. Because it has a certain storage effect of the mustard seed Na Sumeru principle, it is called the Sumeru bag in the circle of Taoist magicians.

Of course, the storage function of this Sumeru bag is very limited. First of all, it expands the storage capacity by using the dense rune network carved on the inner wall to expand the space in the upper part of the net, with the ability of Jiang Yan Daoist, even if the research on the way of runes is not worse than many Taoist masters, he can only expand the space inside the Sumeru bag to the original thousand-fold size is the limit, that is to say, this small bag with a capacity of only one liter on the outside is enough to hold a cubic meter of materials inside.

But compared to the real storage device, it can only be said that this can only be regarded as inadequate, the capacity of an inconspicuous lowest-level space ring far exceeds this value, the gap will be so big, the main reason is that the material is insufficient, Jiang Yan does not have the space attribute refining material on hand, so what he can do is very limited.

And the key thing is that it also has a flaw, the Rune Sumeru Bag only has the effect of increasing the capacity, but it will not reduce the weight, the number of materials you put in, the weight of the bag will be! This is also the reason why it is not as good as the storage props made of materials with space attributes that are used. Because of this characteristic, in order to withstand those weights, the Sumeru bag can only be made of the skin of a very tough beast that looks like a high-level alien beast, otherwise it would be funny if the bag was torn by the weight of the material inside.

When he wanted to make the Sumeru bag, just for this high-grade animal skin, Jiang Yan spent two thousand gold coins, but fortunately, its effect was quite satisfactory to Jiang Yan, as for the weight of the Sumeru bag, it was nothing at all with his body cultivation.

Moreover, in order to maintain the stability of the rune array of the expansion space carved inside, other types of runes cannot be engraved on the bag, such as runes that reduce weight, otherwise it is easy to cause the instability of the expansion space in the bag.

After packing up his things, Jiang Yan got up and came to the center of the cave hall, took out a dagger and carved a conspicuous message on the floor for Luo Li to explain his whereabouts, and then beckoned the black iron eagle who was in the hall to close his eyes and recuperate, pushed open the stone door at the door and jumped out, landing on a pine branch rooted in the cliff wall outside.

After building the interior layout of the cave inside the cliff, Jiang Yan took action to transform the outside of the cave, he cut a few branches and seedlings from a few pine trees growing in other parts of the cliff, and used the wood path technique in the Five Elements Rune Dao Technique to plant them on this cliff, so as to facilitate him and Luo Li who lived on the cliff to climb in and out, and at the same time played a role in covering the cave.

After the Black Iron Eagle also came out, Jiang Yan closed the stone door, different from the smoothness of the inside of the cave, the outer side of this gate was the appearance of an irregular stone wall that Jiang Yan had used Tuxing Shaping to transform into a tight fit with the surrounding cliffs, and it was difficult to find that there was a hidden cave here from the outside.

Coupled with the cover of a dozen pine trees that seem to grow naturally here, the secrecy is basically no problem.

"Hurry up, it's best to be back before dawn. ”
