"Finally, I've managed to gather all the resources from the last outing and convert them into tangible gains!"

Returning to his domain, Qi Ping felt elated. Although he had acquired these things seven or eight years ago, it was only now that he truly possessed them.

Now, it genuinely belonged to him.

"Next step is to use these resources to swiftly enhance my strength!"

Currently, Qi Ping was abundant in resources, ready for anything. The next step was to use these resources to quickly elevate his cultivation to the late-stage Foundation Establishment and fully nurture his animal companions. After that, he could control the tree-man avatar to head to Cyan Origin Sect to acquire cultivation knowledge and array knowledge, seeking opportunities to break through to the Golden Core.

He also needed to find ways to spend those five million plus Spirit Stones, obtaining some high-value resources.

"Next, we should first plant the spiritual medicine and spiritual seeds purchased this time, especially Ripple Exotic Wood and Nether Moon Soul Wood. Bond them and imprint suitable magic, and cultivate swiftly to accelerate the growth of Cloud Dream Immortal Tiger and animal companions."

The cultivation of spiritual medicine and spirit wood not only relates to animal companions' growth but is also crucial for Qi Ping to quickly boost his Druid experience.

Qi Ping sensed that the difficulty of upgrading Druid levels and acquiring experience increased as he progressed, but it seemed the deeper his cultivation, the more profound his control over True Meaning of the Law and spiritual power, the easier it would be to gain Druid experience.

Therefore, the faster he elevated his cultivation, the quicker he could expedite the acquisition of Druid experience.

"Then, during the cultivation of spirit wood and spiritual medicine, swiftly elevate Druid Level to level eight, then bond with the Profound Cyan Snake to obtain the Talent Profound Mirror Image. Using the unique ability and extraordinary comprehension brought by the Profound Mirror Image, after comprehending the relevant cultivation technique gained this time, I can start creating a cultivation method entirely my own."

"Once I break through to the late-stage Foundation Establishment, further enhance my understanding of Water and Fire Fusion, deepen my comprehension of both the Water Law and Fire Law, I should be able to assemble more water attribute arrays and fire attribute arrays into a Grand Array. If I can achieve the perfect fusion of the Six Paths Array, there might be a chance to take on an ordinary Golden Core with the array..."

Reaching this point, Qi Ping could step into Cyan Origin Sect without any concerns, no matter what happens then, he'd have enough confidence to handle it.

However, achieving this wasn't easy. Just trying to attain a high level of understanding of Water and Fire Fusion required a deep insight into the True Meaning of the Law of Fire and the True Meaning of the Law of Water, then combining this insight with array comprehension.

With Qi Ping's current comprehension, he wasn't confident he could accomplish this in the short term, so only by obtaining the comprehension talent from the Profound Cyan Snake and the Three-Colored Spirit comprehension talent from the Three-Colored Deer, could Qi Ping have the confidence to quickly achieve this goal.

This is the most crucial goal for Qi Ping, and it is fundamental to pursuing Immortal Dao for longevity and enhancing the security of his territory.

Besides, Qi Ping had two other goals to achieve.

One is to refine alchemy medicine liquid to transition the bees to the late Tier Two stage.

Once the bee swarm transitions to late Tier Two, the title of Bee Daoist will truly be justified, and the bee swarm battle array will then qualify as high-end combat power at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, for the bee swarm to achieve a real leap, it would require successfully devouring the Demon Insect King's bloodline, and at that time, the bee swarm might possess a bloodline superior to that of Qi Ping's current animal companions!

The bee swarm, combined with their terrifying numbers, would possess incredibly powerful combat strength!

The other goal is to let the tree-man avatar take the little Stone Spirit outside to devour all the newly acquired ores and weapons.

Preliminary estimates suggest that upon completing the consumption of this batch of resources, Qi Ping can be certain that the little Stone Spirit will possess Tier Two complete combat strength, and even reaching Tier Three might not be out of reach.

For the changes expected in the little Stone Spirit then, Qi Ping was very much looking forward to it.

After all, the little Immortal Tiger predicted this matter as exceedingly auspicious!

...

Thinking of this, Qi Ping immediately dug up the coal-like little Stone Spirit sleeping by the Spirit Vein.

"Ding ding... (Leader! I was just enjoying a sweet sleep! Why did you wake me up?)"

Rubbing its eyes, the little Stone Spirit looked at Qi Ping in confusion.

Suddenly, it noticed many Companion Ores and high-quality Ghost Iron appeared around it.

"Ding ding... (Eh? Why are there so many stones here? They look much tastier than before!)"

Having said that, it directly manipulated several pieces of Ghost Iron and Companion Ore into its mouth.

Soon after, the sound of crunching came from the little Stone Spirit's mouth, and in that moment, its eyes widened in astonishment!

"Ding ding... (Wow! So delicious, leader!)" the little Stone Spirit exclaimed!

Then, using the Golden Stone Body's ability to manipulate stones, it happily ran in front of Qi Ping with a pile of ores, excitedly saying:

"Ding ding... (Leader! You should join me, it's so tasty!)"

It had promised to share this with Qi Ping, and it hadn't forgotten.

Although Qi Ping faced the little Stone Spirit's enthusiastic and expectant eyes, and despite not wanting to refuse, he firmly shook his head in rejection.

Little Stone Spirit, your leader doesn't eat stones!

"Little Stone Spirit, I'm from the Human Race, and we don't eat stones..." Qi Ping said as gently as possible.

"Ding ding... (Oh? Alright then...)" the little Stone Spirit said somewhat disappointedly, its head slowly drooping.

However, it suddenly noticed the Three-Colored Deer and little Spirit Fox beside it, blinking in awe, and happily raised its head again.

Yet this time, before the little Stone Spirit spoke, the Three-Colored Deer and little Spirit Fox immediately began shaking their heads fiercely.

They don't eat stones either!

They didn't know if it tasted good or not, but they were sure their teeth would break!

Such a firm rejection yet again made the little Stone Spirit's brightening eyes darken once more, feeling as if no one liked what it shared...

Seeing the little Stone Spirit seemingly about to cry, Qi Ping hurriedly approached and patted its head to comfort it:

"Each race has its own food, and it's not that everyone is rejecting you, you know. We understand you love eating ores, and have prepared lots for you. I'll bring you there later..."

"Ding ding... (Really?)"

The little Stone Spirit's dimmed eyes slowly brightened again.

"Of course it's true! You enjoy these first, and I'll take you there later!" Qi Ping nodded affirmatively.

"Ding ding... (Alright!)"

Receiving Qi Ping's confident reply, the little Stone Spirit happily resumed eating without a care.

Its expression and demeanor fully displayed the little Stone Spirit's satisfaction and happiness.

Soon enough, a large pile of ores had been gobbled up by the fist-sized little Stone Spirit.

More astonishing was the fact that after stuffing so many ores into its body, its size remained unchanged.

However, when Qi Ping's tree-man avatar arrived, the little Stone Spirit's head was filled with a big question.

Oh? How come leader turned into two?
