Producing the Golden-Backed Saber Mantis

If Ling Zixing could not sense the changes in the surrounding environment while cultivating, she might be attacked by sudden mutated creatures. After all, there was no absolutely safe place for humans to cultivate.

Ling Zixing said happily, "Brother is back! Sister Ming, Yangyang, why do you look a little pale? Did something happen just now?"

Ling Yichen briefly explained the situation and said, "Yes, a mutated bird at Mortal Body Rank-1 just appeared. I've killed it. I've just convinced Sister Ming to move in too."

"Then Yangyang, sleep with me!" The two little girls were usually very good friends and lived beside each other. Occasionally, they would sleep together.

Gu Yangyang wanted to agree immediately, but when she thought of Ling Mengmeng's threat, she said, "In that case, we'll sleep with her!"

Ling Zixing was stunned, but she didn't mind. "Sure."

The rooms were allocated very easily. The three little girls slept together. They were all small and could all sleep together. As for Ming Xianwan, she stayed in the room of the siblings' deceased parents.

Then, Ming Xianwan and Gu Yangyang also started to swallow Origin Crystals, but she didn't tell Gu Yangyang in advance that these Origin Crystals came from zombies or mutated creatures. Otherwise, who knew if this little girl would obey.

What surprised Ling Yichen was that Ming Xianwan actually swallowed an Origin Crystal and successfully absorbed the meditation technique. He did not know if it was luck or her talent.

Gu Yangyang wasn't too bad either. After swallowing two Origin Crystals in a row, she successfully absorbed the meditation technique.

How should he put it? They had strong talents.

Few ordinary people would be able to absorb the meditation technique after absorbing 10 Origin Crystals, let alone these two girls.

Could it be that they had some special physique?

Ling Yichen couldn't tell for the time being. Perhaps when Ming Xianwan and Gu Yangyang became stronger in the future, they would be able to show some special characteristics.

After Ling Yichen told Gu Yangyang how these Origin Crystals were produced, Gu Yangyang's expression changed drastically. She kept retching, wanting to spit out the Origin Crystals she had swallowed.

After Ling Yichen explained that she had completely absorbed the Origin Crystals, Gu Yangyang gave up struggling and began to pound Ling Yichen as if she was taking revenge, but she didn't use any strength.

Ling Yichen smiled. He was already used to Gu Yangyang's actions. In fact, he felt a sense of sentimentality.

According to the original trajectory of history, everyone apart from him should have died in the apocalypse. Now that they could continue to play like this, Ling Yichen felt a long-lost warmth, as if his cruel experience in the apocalypse did not exist.

No matter how chaotic the outside world was, he had a warm home. He was naturally happy.

After cultivating for almost an hour, the Worker Bee Hive was successfully built.

This was a huge beehive that stood on the ground. Its overall height was more than ten meters. Calculating the radius from the center of the hive, the widest center area had a radius of about five meters.

Speaking of which, the space in the Insect Nest Demiplane had expanded again in the past few hours. The radius of the Insect Nest Demiplane had already expanded to a hundred meters, and its height was also fifty meters!

From the original radius of only three meters to the huge change now, most of the reason was that Ling Yichen was no longer an ordinary person, but had stepped into the Mortal Body realm.

To be precise, ordinary people could be considered to be at Mortal Body Rank-0. However, there was still a fundamental difference between the two. Only those at Mortal Body Rank-1 could be considered to have undergone a fundamental change because of the Origin Energy in their bodies.

However, what surprised Ling Yichen was that for some reason, when he broke through, the Insect Nest Demiplane was only expanding at a slightly accelerated speed. Later on, the speed was really fast.

As for the reason, Ling Yichen was not very clear. The information provided in the Beginner's Handbook did not include this.

Perhaps he could only wait until he activated the control center of the Mother Nest and ask for the reason.

Ling Yichen felt that he could empty the Nanda Supermarket with such a large-scale Insect Nest Demiplane.

Looking at the real soil of the Insect Nest Demiplane, Ling Yichen was also very curious about how all this came about. The expansion of the space would not create soil.

Since he could not figure it out, he did not think about it anymore. Ling Yichen thought for a moment and opened his attribute panel.

[Ruler]: Ling Yichen

[Level]: Mortal Body Rank-1

[Talent]: Immortal

[Genes]: None

[Organic Matter]: 432

[Military Unit]: Worker Bees x10

This was Ling Yichen's current situation. The amount of organic matter had skyrocketed during this period of time.

Ling Yichen did a simple calculation. Each Worker Bee could convert about 10 units of organic matter per hour. This was a relatively average amount.

In addition, with the expansion of the Insect Nest Demiplane, the speed at which the Insect Nest Demiplane converted organic matter had also increased greatly.

Ling Yichen thought for a moment. His plan could not keep up with the changes. In the current situation, he might be able to first produce the combat-type insects before considering the construction of the Organic Matter Conversion Pool. After all, his current conversion speed of organic matter had greatly increased.

Ling Yichen even felt that the number of zombie corpses he had accumulated could not satisfy the current conversion efficiency. Thus, the conversion would be cut off tonight.

Currently, as the Mother Nest was only at Level-1, the number of buildings that could be built was limited. This also meant that the number of insects that Ling Yichen could choose to produce was also very limited.

The first batch of combat-type insectoids Ling Yichen decided to produce was the [Golden-Backed Saber Mantis].

The Golden-Backed Saber Mantis was an insect that was good at close combat. It was very talented in saber techniques. Its saber techniques seemed to be innate. From the day it was born, it would be a natural saber artist.

There was currently a way to produce the Golden-Backed Saber Mantis, which was to quickly evolve the larvae.

[Military Unit]: Golden-Backed Saber Mantis

[Level]: Mortal Body Rank-1

[Attribute]: None

[Skills]: Saber Specialization, Dual Sword Style

[Characteristics]: Warrior

[Evaluation]: Not bad for a close combat insect. Their sturdy backs allow them to focus more on attacking the enemies in front of them.

[Consumption]: One larva requires 100 units of organic matter

This was much more expensive than Worker Bees, but it was still alright. He could afford this consumption.

Ling Yichen immediately began the process of hatching the larvae. After careful deliberation, he decided to build another Incubation Yard.

"Build an [Incubation Yard]."

As soon as the order was given, another Incubation Yard was about to be born next to the existing Incubation Yard in the Insect Nest Demiplane.

"[Incubation Yard] Remaining Construction Time: 9 minutes 59 seconds."

The Incubation Yard was built very quickly. After a short ten minutes, it was completed. Ling Yichen also instructed the Incubation Yard to immediately produce eggs and incubate larvae.

A larva had already hatched in the Incubation Yard at the side.

Ling Yichen immediately gave an order. "Consume 100 units of organic matter and begin evolving the larva into the Golden-Backed Saber Mantis."
