Chapter 305: New Demon Beast: Wind Shadow Dragon Snake [Ask for Subscription]
The required bloodline optimization is actually to advance the strength of the demon insect.
Just like once a low-level demon beast evolves into a middle-level demon beast, its bloodline will naturally be optimized.
However, there are some differences between the Demon Worm Advancement and the Demon Beast Advancement.
Especially demon insects such as bee ants, because of the existence of queen bees and queen ants, the ordinary demon insects in their populations are incomplete.
In a bee colony and ant colony, there can never be other demon insects that are stronger than the queen bee and queen bee, and there can never be other demon insects that have a higher degree of evolution than the queen bee and queen ant.
Therefore, to optimize the bloodline of this kind of demon insect, you only need to improve the strength of the queen bee and queen ant in it, and let it advance.
In this regard, the queen bee and queen ant have advantages that ordinary monsters do not have.
Generally speaking, the evolutionary potential of queen bees and queen ants is much greater than that of demon beasts of the same level, and they can generally evolve again on top of the original level.
In some cases, after the expansion of the insect colony, it will feed back the existence of queen bees and queen ants, making them advanced again.
At this time, Zhou Chun used the second-generation queen bee he cultivated as an experiment, which was to use secret medicine to forcibly promote its growth and evolution, just like when he used spiritual objects to help the Golden Armor Rock Turtle evolve.
It's just that the queen bee's strength is not as good as that of demon beasts of the same level, and her weak body is even more difficult to withstand the medicinal power of secret medicine spiritual objects.
The risk of this kind of advancement is far greater than that of the same level demon beast.
Because of this, Zhou Chun will first use the queen bee he cultivated to do experiments.
It's a pity that the result of his first experiment ended in failure.
After taking the secret medicine and herbs he had prepared, the queen bee suddenly fell off her wings and her body cracked and died within seven days.
With the death of the queen bee, Zhou Chun's first experiment failed.
Next, he will continue to breed new queens, and then experiment with new queens.
It will take a long time, but Zhou Chun can afford to wait.
Anyway, apart from consuming some materials and time, this kind of experiment would not cause any harm to his own cultivation and the Zhou family.
And when doing this kind of experiment, Zhou Chun even had the spare energy to cultivate the three demon insects he contracted.
A few years have passed, and the three demon insects have been cultivated to the point where they can reproduce.
It should be noted here that there are four stages in the life of demon insects, which are larval stage, growth stage, adult stage, and maturity stage.
Only the demon insect in the adult stage will have the ability to reproduce, and the maturity period means that the demon insect itself has reached the peak of the race, and its ability has been developed to the extreme.
It is worth mentioning that this stage of maturity is not something that every demon insect can reach.
Because it is not a stage that can be reached with the growth of the demon insect's age, but a stage that can only be reached by the growth of the demon insect's strength.
The strength of a mature demon insect is often several times stronger than that of an adult demon insect, or even more than ten times.
The three demon insects of Zhou Chun's contract, even if they have all been carefully cultivated by him, because of time, they have only reached adulthood now.
It should be noted that after many demon insects reach adulthood, once they mate and lay eggs, they basically cannot enter the maturity period.
Because mating and laying eggs will cause great loss to the demon insects, many species of demon insects will even die after mating and laying eggs.
Among the three demon insects domesticated by Zhou Chun, the "Blue Moon Butterfly" is like this.
After mating, the male "Blue Moon Butterfly" will first die within three days, and the female "Blue Moon Butterfly" will also die within three days after laying eggs.
In order to expand the population of these demon insects, Zhou Chun let them mate and lay eggs when they became adults.
Nowadays, the eggs laid by the three demon insects are several times more than their population.
It's just that although the number of eggs laid by demon insects at one time is large, the real live eggs only account for six or seven percent of them.
In this part of the live eggs, there will be some congenitally stunted inferior eggs, and these inferior eggs also need to be eliminated.
Therefore, the number of demon insects that can really hatch in the end is actually not so exaggerated.
On this day, Zhou Chun had just finished his daily meditation and cultivation and returned to Zhongping Hall to deal with things, when he was suddenly summoned by Zhou Daoyi.
It wasn't until he met Zhou Daoyi that he realized that it was the Zhou family's first dragon-descended demon beast that he had cultivated!
Since Zhou Daoyi's spirit pet Qingqing evolved into a dragon, the Zhou family has always had extremely high expectations for him.
Because for an immortal cultivation family, the third-order Jiaolong is not only a powerful combat power, but also has a strong productivity.
The dragon aura of the third-order dragon is enough to impregnate and alienate ordinary spirit objects and low-level demon beasts, so that they can gradually alienate into dragon blood spirit objects and dragon descendant demon beasts.
It's just that this process will be a bit long, and it can't be achieved overnight in a short period of time.
However, after pinching his fingers and calculating carefully, it has been almost 20 years since Qingqing established the dragon's lair.
It's not a long time, but it's not a short time either.
It is not surprising that the first dragonborn demon beast that has been impregnated and alienated has appeared so far.
Of course, this is not surprising, but it is normal for this to happen.
But in fact, for the Zhou family, this is undoubtedly a great joy to be happy about.
Because there is one, there are two, since the first alienated dragon-descended demon beast appeared, then there may be a second and third type later!
According to the information collected from the Dragon Transformation Sect, as long as the third-order dragon is given enough time to infiltrate and alienate two or three dragon-descended demon beasts, it will not be a problem at all.
Therefore, Zhou Chun was overjoyed after learning the news, even if he asked Zhou Daoyi to take him to the dragon's lair to visit the alienated dragon-descended demon beast.
In the end, the dragon's lair was not built in that underground river, but in a deep mountain pool not far from Jiufeng Ridge.
That deep mountain pool is the birthplace of a river in Lanzhou, and it doesn't look big from the outside, only seven or eight acres of water.
However, the spring at the bottom of this pond is extremely watery, and it is also connected to an underground water vein, and the aura is quite strong.
After Zhou Daoyi discovered this place at that time, he decided to build a dragon lair here.
At this time, Zhou Chun followed Zhou Daoyi to this Jiaolong lair, and it was easy to enter the Jiaolong lair below under the leadership of the frog Jiao who came out to greet him.
I saw the two of them riding on the back of the dragon, and after diving more than 20 zhang, they passed through the spring at the bottom of the pool and entered an underground lake.
Compared to the seemingly small waterhole on the outside, this underground lake is several times larger.
However, according to Zhou Daoyi, at the beginning, the area of this underground lake was even half the size of the above-ground waters, and the area it has today is all excavated and expanded by Qingjiao Qingqing himself.
This can now also be regarded as the periphery of the dragon's lair.
The real dragon's lair is located in the depths of the underground lake.
When it comes to the dragon's lair, many people may think that it is a cave.
But that's not the case.
The dragon's lair is just a name, which means the place where the dragon dwells.
And not all dragons like to inhabit caves.
At least not the Qingjiao Qingqing.
Therefore, its dragon lair is very special, and the real body of the lair is actually a thick stone pillar cast from the Shen Yuan Stone.
This thick black stone pillar is thirty zhang high, so thick that it takes four people to hug it, and the frog Qingqing usually wraps around it to rest.
And around this black stone pillar, there are a large number of water-attribute spirit jade, spirit shells and ores, as well as many low-level demon beasts such as mussels and clams caught from Long Yuanze, and even some aquatic plants that exude spiritual energy are planted in some corners.
These things were deliberately placed here by the Zhou family, and the purpose was naturally to turn them into dragon blood spirit objects under the infiltration of the frog breath.
But if there is anything that stands out here, it is not the stone pillar where the frogs live, but the place behind the stone pillar that emits a white light.
It was a waterless area, and it was also the base for the Zhou family to cultivate dragon-descended demon beasts.
This waterless area is not large, and it is less than two acres in size.
Its existence is completely created by the formation.
At that time, when Zhou Chongshan was still alive, he used the water clearing spirit bead that the Zhou family obtained from Long Yuanze as a material to arrange such a water clearing formation.
Since the arrangement of this water-repelling formation, the Zhou family has sent several kinds of demon beasts such as the octagonal deer and the emerald crowned flying snake here to raise, hoping that over time, they can be transformed into dragon-descended demon beasts.
Now, after many years, there is finally a harvest.
At this time, when he came to the outside of the water-clearing formation, Zhou Chunding looked at it and easily saw the dragon-descended demon beast that had been successfully alienated.
I saw that in the water-clearing formation, a verdant-colored one-horned flying snake was swallowing snakes, and its eyes were in awe and bowed to the ground behind them, hissing incessantly.
That's right, this verdant-colored one-horned flying snake is a dragonborn demon beast alienated from the emerald crowned flying snake.
Originally, the demon beast of the Emerald Flying Snake was emerald green all over, with a cockscomb-like sarcoma on its head.
Now that it has been alienated by the blood of the frog, its color has changed to green, and the original sarcoma has also been alienated into a meat horn.
Zhou Chun stared at the one-horned flying snake at this time, and then asked Zhou Daoyi, "I wonder how this alienated demon beast has changed in terms of ability compared to the emerald crown flying snake?" ”
Zhou Daoyi had obviously been here first, and at this time, after listening to Zhou Chun's inquiry, he replied: "The alienated demon beast, compared to the original Emerald Crowned Flying Snake, has more wind attributes, its flight speed is faster, it can spit out a unique poisonous wind arrow spell, and it also has the wind blade spell. ”
"These are only known abilities at present, and it remains to be seen whether they will be able to awaken and master more abilities as they grow and evolve in the future."
The original Emerald Crowned Flying Snake basically had only two attack methods, close quarters bites and spit venom water arrows.
If it weren't for the fact that the venom water arrow it spits out was a spell, it wouldn't even be worthy of the title of a demon beast.
Therefore, although there are many people who contract to domesticate this kind of demon beast in the Zhou family, no one will regard it as the main war pet, just as a means of surprise soldiers.
But if, as Zhou Daoyi said, the alienated one-horned flying snake can awaken and master other popular spells, then it will have the qualifications to become the main battle pet of the Qi refining period cultivators.
"Have you ever tried the venom power of this alienated unicorn flying snake? Is the venom more toxic than the normal Emerald Crowned Flying Snake? ”
Zhou Chun's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly asked Zhou Daoyi another question.
Hearing his question, Zhou Daoyi was also stunned, and then nodded thoughtfully: "I haven't tried this yet, maybe you can try it now!" ”
Just try it!
Zhou Daoyi even grabbed an ordinary emerald crown flying snake and the one-horned flying snake out, and let them each bite on their fingers.
This kind of thing of testing poison with his body is only he, a monk of the Purple Mansion Period, dares to do.
After all, a mere first-order demon snake, no matter how poisonous it was, could not pose a mortal threat to him, a Purple Mansion Stage cultivator.
After experimenting with it himself, Zhou Daoyi quickly nodded and said, "That's right, the toxicity of the venom has also increased, and the venom of this one-horned flying snake is obviously much stronger." ”
When Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately said happily: "That's good, the toxicity of the original Emerald Crown Flying Snake is enough to pose a fatal threat to the Qi Refining Stage cultivators, and this time the toxicity is improved, many first-order demon beasts should not be able to bear it." ”
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Daoyi and asked, "Then have you thought about what to name this new alienated demon beast?" ”
As the owner of Qingqing Qingqing, Zhou Daoyi was naturally the first choice to choose a name for this new dragon-descended demon beast.
Therefore, after listening to Zhou Chun's words, he looked at the one-horned flying snake and thought seriously.
After a moment of this, he whispered, "How about the Wind Shadow Dragon Snake?" ”
After speaking, he said to himself: "The attribute is wind, fast as no shadow, dragons and snakes coexist, yes, let's call it wind shadow dragon snake!" ”
As he spoke, he directly determined the name of the one-horned flying snake.
"What a Wind Shadow Dragon Snake, it is indeed a good name!"
Zhou Chun couldn't help but applaud, and was also very satisfied with the name Zhou Daoyi had chosen.
Then he looked at the Wind Shadow Dragon Snake and said: "Then this Wind Shadow Dragon Snake will be brought back to be a seed snake, and in the future, the snake eggs it lays will be sent to the dragon's lair to hatch, so it won't take ten years or eight years, presumably the population of the Wind Shadow Dragon Snake will be able to expand to dozens." ”
The naturally alienated dragon-descended demon beast has a relatively stable bloodline and can be passed on.
Therefore, even if the Wind Shadow Dragon Snake crosses with the Emerald Crowned Flying Snake to lay snake eggs, the hatchlings of the snake eggs will have a chance to be the Wind Shadow Dragon Snake.
And if the snake eggs are impregnated with the same dragon breath after being laid, then the chance of becoming a wind shadow dragon snake after hatching will be increased many times.
Compared with this efficient population expansion method, the population expansion efficiency of the Red Flame Vajra Monkey, another artificially bred hybrid demon beast of the Zhou family, is much worse.
That's the benefit of having a dragon.
