A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 554 - 439: Forbidden Demon Insect (Part 2)

In this situation, she only wanted to live the rest of her life quietly and steadily. This difficult life in the Immortal Cultivation Realm might not be something she’d return to in the next life, nor did she want any descendants to suffer in this world.

This was also why Qi Ping noticed a change in Sister Nan’s temperament when he arrived at her peak; she became simple and natural, much like Old Man Zhou.

However, just when Sister Nan was about to completely give up, Qi Ping surprised her further, bringing higher-grade resources and displaying extraordinary means, such as high-level arrays that could conceal cultivators from detection.

Little Qi actually became a high-level Array Master! The spirit insects he cultivated also seemed to grow stronger!

It was then that Sister Nan became more convinced that Qi Ping was truly about to soar! Perhaps she would witness the rise of a legend.

But at that time, no matter how imaginative she was, she never would have thought this legend would unify the Qingtian Realm, or later sweep across the entire Star Sea Continent!

Because in her eyes then, even the Foundation Establishment Stage was an unattainable existence.

However, due to Qi Ping’s performance, the flame of revenge within her heart began to rekindle as Qi Ping grew stronger and brought her better resources.

After seeing hope for revenge, the fire in her heart ignited again.

Afterward, it was Qi Ping’s gradual rise that slowly aligned the legendary cultivator Bee Daoist’s image with the Little Qi she knew.

Her own strength also grew during this process until she slowly gained the ability to exact revenge.

The day she broke through, a family in the Qingtian Realm vanished... wiped out by a ruthless cultivator, leaving not even earthworms in the fields.

That day, the shadows lingering in Sister Nan’s heart for countless years and the nightmares that haunted her dreams were finally removed...

And what reassured her was that she could feel as she slaughtered the enemy family, there was a pair of familiar eyes watching from an unknown corner, and she knew with that person there, nothing unexpected would happen.

After completing her revenge, Sister Nan finally dispelled the gloom and restored her true nature.

Unfortunately, after all the hardships, she discovered that the innocent and carefree little girl of the past had disappeared, perhaps perishing on the day she witnessed her parents’ death.

Now, she was nothing but a person worn down by the world.....

But on the day she truly dispelled the darkness, she found a figure slowly entering her heart...

However, because of her hatred, she never faced or considered this matter, so she never realized it.

Indeed, witnessing an adorable and naive young boy growing into a legend known worldwide with countless ties to her... how could such a person not walk into her heart?

But when she truly realized this, Sister Nan still chose to ignore the figure in her heart.

Because that person was too dazzling, dazzling to the point of being impossible to look directly at... like a firefly to the bright moon!

Although Qi Ping still let her call him Little Qi, although Qi Ping still treated her the same as before, she couldn’t ignore the huge gap in identity and strength.

Every time she thought about it, Sister Nan felt as if there were mountains and rivers separating them.

Two people with such a large gap could never be, even if Qi Ping didn’t mind, she knew she would someday be stuck at a certain realm, would age, would exhaust her lifespan and die...

Until she awakened the Great Spirit Insect King Body, until she gained the Beast God Sect’s inheritance and contracted the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal Rebirth Body, she saw a glimmer of hope.

Thus, from that moment, she dedicated all her efforts and willpower to cultivation and the nurturing of spirit insects.

Perhaps it wasn’t just for the goal; walking this path, every breakthrough in realm, every transformation of a spirit insect brought her comfort and peace, and she truly enjoyed the feeling of cultivating and growing stronger.

Now, with the help of the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal Rebirth Body, her strength had reached the Nascent Soul Perfection stage, and the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal Rebirth Body had successfully broken through to the initial stage of Tier Five, that is, the initial stage of Divinity Transformation!

And a Divinity Transformation level time system spirit insect, being a rebirth body of the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal, its strength was undeniably powerful.

Of course, her cultivation breakthrough speed being so frightening was due partly to the Great Spirit Insect King Body and the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal, and it was also related to the resources and positional convenience provided by Qi Ping.

But for her, this was still not enough; this upcoming Realm Battlefield was an opportunity to change fate against the heavens that she absolutely couldn’t miss. Only by seizing this opportunity would she have hope of truly standing by Qi Ping’s side.

Moreover, in preparation for this Realm Battlefield, she used the source blood of the Great Spirit Insect King Body and various rare demon insect bloodlines, one of which Qi Ping captured deep within the Star Sea Continent, a terrifyingly formidable Nascent Soul level Demon Insect King larva bloodline, to cultivate a forbidden demon insect that she wasn’t entirely sure she could control. This demon insect, in testing, could devour almost anything with energy.

This forbidden demon insect, even in larval form, exhibited more terrifying strength than the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal, and remember, the Eight-Winged Pi Immortal Rebirth Body is a time system spirit insect!

However, this forbidden demon insect hadn’t been fully cultivated, and she needed more demon race corpses as food for cultivating and evolving the forbidden demon insect.

In the past, she primarily fed various spirit insects basic spiritual medicine, but this ferocious forbidden demon insect was a first.

But no matter what, Sister Nan was confident that these forbidden demon insects would bring terrifying destruction to the demon race, and this was her confidence as the Great Spirit Insect King Body.

"Little Qi, this time, regardless of life or death, I will slaughter a vast number of demons for you!"

"If I am fortunate to still survive and gain creation, I will use these forbidden demon insects to protect the home you have spent countless efforts on..."

Sister Nan looked deeply at Qi Ping and said these two sentences silently in her heart; at this moment, she only had unwavering determination.

Afterward, she had a brief conversation with Qi Ping before returning to the City of Fallen Immortals.

Qi Ping naturally also noticed the peculiarity in Sister Nan’s eyes but said nothing more; he simply exhausted energy to secretly place a few life-saving methods on her.

Since Sister Nan had made her decision, he would just support it.

...

When Sister Nan returned to the City of Fallen Immortals, several respectful voices rang out:

"Hall Master!"

"Disciple greets the Insect Immortal Hall Master!"

The speakers were the gifted disciples from the main campus of Star Sea Academy, and Sister Nan’s identity at this time was the Hall Master of the Insect Hall there.

For on the Star Sea Continent, aside from Qi Ping, who excelled in controlling bees, the strongest in spirit insect cultivation was undoubtedly Sister Nan!

Perhaps due to the reason Sister Nan had just spoken directly with Qi Ping, many eyes within Immortal Fall City were on her, as few were qualified to speak directly to Qi Ping, let alone take the initiative to approach him.

Nowadays, Sister Nan was also a figure of renown at Star Sea Academy. Not to mention possessing Nascent Soul Perfection strength, she also held a terrifying Divinity Transformation level time system spirit insect, making her a formidable adversary even for ordinary Divinity Transformation cultivators.

Needless to say, Sister Nan had more than one spirit insect; she commanded at least ten kinds of demon insects with powerful and bizarre abilities. This configuration made her single-combat and mass slaughter capabilities extremely formidable.

In addition, Sister Nan’s talent allowed her own strength to receive augmentation from the insect swarm. As long as the swarm was large enough, she could unleash strength surpassing her own realm, one of the terrifying aspects of the Great Spirit Insect King Body.

Confronting this highly anticipated scene, Sister Nan’s heart was unperturbed, not worried this communication would trouble Qi Ping, as there were no intimate actions between them.

More importantly, after returning from the Realm Battlefield this time, she would either perish or return with her matured forbidden demon insects to sweep everything. As long as the demon insects thrived, she would not die!
