Poison Qi doesn't completely repel predators. It just makes them less likely to attack

I imagine it has a benefit, otherwise why even offer it instead of just giving an exploring action to go and find points of interest and predators.
Also I don't see anything indicating it has a higher progress requirement? Both the near and far options are double digits and there's no note about it being more difficult.
This warrants experimentation!

Keep in mind that cultivating the Poison Qi COSTS 10 Cultivation XP. Spend enougj Cultivation XP and your cultivation realm will go down.
You only have 20 cultivation XP to spend before your Realm goes down

Good to know!
In terms of the broader point, I think this is still a negative as far as we're concerned, and makes putting the gunk further away less attractive.
But it does mean we could maybe just focus on getting the next farm going, and continue cultivating outside for now?
Yea I did notice that dw. Thanks for the heads up anyway.
Not reeeaaally? There's regularly been options offered in the vote which would kill us if we took them. Making suboptimal decisions is on us.
RE: The progress required, I asked Tam Lin at the time. It's a bit higher, presumably due to the distance.
Alright, fair enough. I'm convinced.

[] Plan: Second Farm Time
-[] Day 35: Try to expand your meager shelter (9/30)
-[] Day 36: Try to expand your meager shelter (9/30)
-[] Day 37: Work towards expanding your fungus farm.
If we don't reach the progress needed for expanding our farm by day 37, then we'll stop on that day and can make a new plan.
We've wanted to do this forever, let's seize the moment!

Doesn't this boot you back to Initial 1st realm?
As of the last action, you didn't cultivate for 1 day.
35 makes it the 2nd day
36 is the third day
You have to cultivate on day 37
Yeah, but it could have really cool effects.
Like imagine a (QiBlood) that means we are much less affected by the poison qi (less harm to us and easier to hide) and lets our attacks transfer some poison qi to our opponent, who then suffers debuffs and maybe damage each turn until they get rid of it.

[X] Plan: Using our stored food to buy time to make friends
Making our home bigger is decently understood right now, it let's us put in more farms. We know nothing of the costs/benefits of joining a new colony so we should find out so we know how useful it will be in future lives.
Multiple people have promised that once we get a few days of food stockpiled we can test integrating with a colony.

Why not use beetle charge on expending the shelter? We have the food so it doesn't really matter.

Wait, doesn't the gunk attract things that want to eat it or something? Or empower things?
If so, it would be to our advantage to have it a long way from our home.
Or am I confused?
Come to think of it, I'm one of them.

It depends whether you're thinking of predators as threats because they will try to eat us, or opportunities because we can eat them.
Oh snap, I miscalculated.
I don't want to join a new colony and bend the knee to some other ant. If we enter a new colony, it should be as a conqueror!
If you make that plan I'll vote for it. Am on phone so can't right now - we need to cultivate outside on the last day.

Dumb non-cultivating predators are opportunities we can eat. Cultivating predators who have been strengthened by eating stuff that empowers them might be an actual threat.
sure.

It might do either, depending on how Tam Lin is feeling on a negative event roll.
However, neither is actually bad from our perspective - ?? cultivating predators are a useful resource. The most you can say is it reduces the chance if potential complications like the Ladybug scent.
