Alien Science Cultivation

As for Hei Jin calling Zhang Qiang "Brother Qiang", it was also Zhang Qiang's idea. After all, Zhang Qiang was an Earthling, and he couldn't accept being called "Master, Master" every day.

"Alright... I get it... You did the right thing... But if you guys advance one by one, I'll have to watch you guys go through tribulations every day..."

"Haha... Zhang Qiang, your train of thought is quite amazing. They are not strange beasts, to be precise, they are insects, and they generally do not undergo tribulation, because they devour each other, which is the so-called tribulation. Also, after they transform, they will be sensed by the heaven and earth, so they need to pass the tribulation to advance... For example, the current Black Gold, the tribulation is a hardship but also an opportunity..." After Chen Ying smiled, she explained to Zhang Qiang seriously.

"Actually... it's normal that you don't know. I'm afraid even Hei Jin might not know. All creatures in the Side Path generally have stronger perception abilities than humans, and the most terrifying thing is that they also have a powerful sixth sense. However, this knowledge is the conclusion drawn by our seventh-level civilization through long-term experiments..."

"There is such a thing... I've also heard of the sixth sense, but I've always thought it was just a legend. Could it really exist?" Zhang Qiang said with doubt in his heart.

"They really exist, especially in the animal realm. They are not only the most sensitive to changes in the world, but also to certain information in space and time. So before major world events happen, they often have some strange sensations. Anyway, it's hard to explain clearly, and it's hard to understand thoroughly..." Chen Ying explained seriously, with a solemn expression.

Listening to Chen Ying's words, Zhang Qiang couldn't help but fall into deep thought. "It seems to be true. Earthquakes, seasonal changes, and other phenomena seem to be first discovered by animals like snakes and rats. That can only mean that their hearing and senses are so strong..." Thinking of this, Zhang Qiang couldn't help but cast his gaze on Hei Jin. After all, he belonged to the realm of the living beings.

Heijin naturally understood what Zhang Qiang meant, "What Miss Chen said seems to be right. I'm not sure what the sixth sense Miss Chen mentioned is, but the higher the cultivation level in the Beast Tribe, the more able they are to sense the abnormalities in the world. For example, the two most talked about things recently are that the Beast Tribe's powerful beings sensed the approach of war, and the other is the rebirth of the Beast Master. Not long ago, I also vaguely felt a message similar to the pressure of blood, which made me have an urge to kneel down. It's just that my cultivation level is low, and I really don't understand what it means, and I have only heard about it. I heard about the rebirth of the Beast Master from the Mosquito King who was sacrificed, but it was just hearsay, and I don't know whether it is true or not. I don't know if this is the sixth sense that Miss Chen mentioned..." Heijin did not hide anything. She didn't dare, and there was no need to hide it.

"What is the Lord of the Animal World? Is he the supreme power? Could it be that the change in the thunder tribulation is related to..." Chen Ying was puzzled, and seemed to remember something terrible, and couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

"You mean, the birth of the Companion Dao Master caused a change in the thunder tribulation..." Zhang Qiang asked. Chen Ying nodded confidently.

"...When we grow up, we will go and meet this so-called Animal Taoist Master, bastard...How many cultivators will be harmed by him..." Zhang Qiang couldn't help but curse.

"Go and capture that Black Fire Ant... Don't try to be so clever next time. They're your mortal enemies, but you're also theirs. To avoid being devoured by your own kind, you have no choice but to fight them and devour each other. Otherwise, what's the point of running after your natural enemy? With your current command of space, dodging the Black Fire Ant's spiritual sense is a piece of cake. You're deliberately exposing your flaws to lure the Mosquito King into surrender... You can practice the Soul Technique together. War is imminent, and I hope my teammates are trustworthy, otherwise they might be even more formidable than the enemy. The world is changing, and cultivation will become increasingly difficult, making attaining immortal status even more unlikely. You should be aware of the brutality of this war for resources... Only one out of ten can survive—a sign of divine intervention..." Zhang Qiang's voice was icy. He had originally planned to wait for Hei Jin to return and give him a heads-up before calling it quits. After all, a brief remark was much gentler than a direct outburst. But thinking of the war ahead, Zhang Qiang felt compelled to make Hei Jin realize his mistake.

"Master... Xiao Jin was wrong... Master, please punish me..." Hei Jin was shocked after hearing Zhang Qiang's words and immediately fell to his knees. It seemed that Zhang Qiang had not grasped every one of his intentions, and he couldn't understand why Zhang Qiang knew so much about his space-travelling ability.

"Xiao Jin... don't underestimate your brother Qiang's strength... you'll learn later... you can have secrets, but there are certain things you can't harbor. Even if you have an idea, tell it directly to your brother Qiang! Remember, this won't happen again..." Chen Ying took over Hei Jin's words and spoke softly. It wasn't so much Chen Ying speaking for Zhang Qiang as it was exonerating Hei Jin. Hei Jin understood, "Xiao Jin, remember... what the Master and Miss Chen said. Hei Jin swears it won't happen again..."

"Okay... go ask the Ant King if he is willing to follow your brother Qiang... Don't force or tempt him. What we want is a partner, a partner we can trust in troubled times... Go..." Chen Ying continued. Heijin did not respond, but silently lowered his head and looked at Zhang Qiang, "Go..."

"Yes...Master...Brother Qiang."

After Xiao Jin left, Chen Ying spoke again: "Is this war really as cruel as you say? Isn't it a bit…"

"To have a glimmer of hope in surviving the thunder tribulation, and to prevent their own people from slaughtering each other, war will be unleashed, drawing in both the strong and the weak... No one will sit idly by and wait for death... We must hurry... It's better to be prepared..." Zhang Qiang said softly, then sat down. His second dantian was almost ready. Zhang Qiang had survived the tribulations repeatedly the previous time, so Chen Xin naturally guessed that Zhang Qiang had two dantians, but simply ignored one without asking. In the evening, Zhang Qiang finally faced the Golden Core Tribulation of his second dantian. The first seven tribulations were largely the same as the previous one, but the Asura phantom from the eighth Asura Tribulation was not so lucky this time, being shattered in mid-air by Zhang Qiang. This scene was witnessed by Black Gold and the tens of thousands of Black Fire Flying Ants that had accompanied him! The insects were shocked. Fighting Asura with bare hands, even the Asura phantom was terrifying enough, and Zhang Qiang completely shattered it.

"Brother Qiang... they brought it... but they don't believe in your Jindan cultivation level, they..." Hei Jin was interrupted by Zhang Qiang before he could finish his words.

"Isn't it worthy for them to follow...?"

Heijin nodded, then glanced at Zhang Qiang and stepped aside. Zhang Qiang took a leisurely look at the black fire ants in front of him. They were 7% similar to the gold-eating mosquitoes, except that they had a pair of incisors at the corners of their mouths, while the gold-eating mosquitoes had a single horn and a mouth full of steel teeth. They all had transparent wings, and their colors ranged from gray to black. The larger the ants, the darker they were. There were traces of flames covering their bodies. There were about of them in this group. It can be guessed that they were all out in the nest. It is estimated that their king still trusts Heijin! At least this pair of enemies still have a basic trust in each other! Just as Zhang Qiang was thinking, the leading black fire ant slowly transformed into a white-bearded old man with a slightly hunched back and a snake staff in his hand. He walked towards Zhang Qiang. It can be seen that the black fire ant's transformation level is higher than Heijin's, and his cultivation level is also enough to reach the late stage of Nirvana.

"Young friend Zhang Qiang... My dear little brother, I'm an elder of the Black Fire Ant Clan. Your body is incredibly strong, and I truly admire you... However, my clan, along with the Gold-Eating Mosquito Clan, can only rely on cultivators with powerful spiritual awareness to further unleash our talents. Young friend, your golden elixir..."

"Your worries are understandable. You can be frank... Naturally, I won't hide my shortcomings..." Before the old man finished speaking, Zhang Qiang interrupted the old man's explanation, and stretched out his right hand towards the ant colony, and grabbed the air with his five fingers in a hook shape... The old man's eyes followed the direction of Zhang Qiang's finger, and a strange scene appeared. Nearly 80,000 ants in the air were imprisoned in an instant. The old man showed an incredible look in his eyes. What terrified the old man was that the expressions and eyes of the tribesmen were exactly the same as before they were imprisoned. In other words, they were imprisoned in an instant without knowing it... They didn't even have time to react consciously... And there were more than 80,000 of them, and there were more than 2,000 people in the Nirvana Realm. The old man seemed to have a feeling that as long as Zhang Qiang was willing, the moment his five fingers closed, these more than 80,000 tribesmen would instantly turn into nothingness.
