Astral Ant Tribe

Late autumn.

Pandan Mountain.

The azure god-given seeds are ripe, super-grade god-given seeds, lord-level quality, and a single fruit can be sold for 25 rough stones/piece.

However, the output of this batch was not large, and only 1,800 blue fruits were retained.

The tree planted by the azure god is over 80 meters tall and its growth momentum continues unabated. It is appropriate to prudently retain 3,000 fruits next year.

Wait until the growth momentum of the blue god-given seeds has passed before considering fruiting in large quantities.

…

Ghost Fan Mountain.

When the fruits of the Ghost Fan god were ripe, only 3,000 of them were kept. Longbai bought all of them, ate 1,000 for himself, 500 for Mo Lan, and distributed the remaining 1,500 to other insects in Yunji Continent.

…

Baifanshan.

The output of the seeds given by the God of White Rice has reached 1,500 seeds per year. All the insects in Yunji Continent have eaten their fill, and they are made into White Rice Queen Honey with a price of 3,000 raw stones/can, which will be sold to the caravans in the coming year.

…

Kiwi Mountain.

The green and red macaque species of Green Maple and Red Maple have earned 18,000 rough stones this year, and the total income from the territory has reached 23,000 rough stones, which is quite impressive.

…

After a year of growth and the investment of 30,000 raw stones, the red juniper god-given seed reached a height of 14 meters and initially grew into a big tree, far exceeding expectations.

Longbai brought the silver cypress from the Juelang rainforest to the Nanjuozao Mountain, where it takes care of it permanently.

…

Long Bai returns to Xianglan Mountain.

The 800 specialized blue soldiers planned for the Shandong Reservoir are all in place, and the Pandan Mountain Ant Nation's combat effectiveness is saturated.

Long Bai began to cultivate mountain master-level worker ants and blue ants, as well as a small number of large and medium-sized soldier ants.

It's winter time.

Winter passes and spring comes.

Hei Ye is still reclaiming wasteland in the Xuanlang Rainforest alone.

The green cypress replaces the silver cypress, and he always lives in the South Jujube Mountain, taking care of the red cypress seeds given by God.

Yinbai returned to Xianglan Mountain, and together with Juniper and Jubai, he trained specialized blue soldiers, practiced various battle formations, and also practiced battle command. During the attack on the termite kingdom, Yinbai must take on the important task of guarding the main nest of Pandan Mountain.

The reclamation work in Molan Mountain has entered the final stage, and Xiangbai has returned to Xianglan Mountain to take charge of territory management.

Longbai spent two days transporting the fruit seedlings cultivated by Xianglan Mountain and Heilian Lake Nursery to Molan Mountain. Longbai led the ant colony to plant them, leaving him behind to take care of the follow-up management work.

Spring is in full bloom.

After Long Bai completed the transaction with the Flame Spider Traveler, the Dominion Throne carried Black Ti and a large number of worker ants and blue ants to the north.

Desolate plain.

The severe cold in winter here has not yet receded, with gusty cold winds and puffs of gravel blowing in the wind.

cold. drought. barren.

Heiti was lying on the edge of the throne, looking down.

"Your Majesty, there isn't even a hill here."

Long Bai: "We haven't found any water source either. You can use ice and fire to make a kettle to replenish the ant colony. Then dig around and you should be able to dig out underground water."

Heiti: "...Okay."

Heiti: "Your Majesty, how do you dig an ant nest?"

Long Bai: "Go over there and have a look!"

The ruling throne tilted down and landed under a mound that stretched for two to three kilometers and rose to a height of about ten meters.

Long Bai put down the board.

Heiti led the ant colony towards the ground.

Long Bai flapped its wings and flew into the air, flying at low altitude, circling and observing.

"Heiti, this is the place."

Long Bai pointed with his tentacles and said: "Dig under the mound, make an ant tunnel with a diameter of about 1.2 meters, spiral downward, dig first, check the underground soil quality, and then determine the depth of the ant nest."

Long Bai: "There are three issues that need to be considered when building a nest here. The first is the insulation and ventilation of the nest in winter; the second is the humidity of the ant nest in the dry season; and the third issue is the capacity of the nest to store five thousand soldier ants in the future. And internal transportation is very troublesome.”

Long Bai: "Five thousand soldier ants need matching worker ants and blue ants. The actual number may reach 6,000."

Long Bai: "One ant nest is definitely not enough. If it is dug too big, it will collapse easily. It needs to be divided into multiple sub-nests and built separately. Just leave a channel between the sub-nests to transmit information and instructions."

Heiti: "I understand. Your Majesty."

Heiti directed the ant colony to dig.

Long Bai stayed and observed for a day. After confirming that it was correct, he left and returned to Xianglan Mountain in a straight line.

From the main nest in Xianglan Mountain, transport mountain master-level specialized worker ants, large worker ants, specialized blue ants, large blue ants, as well as large and medium soldier ants, medium, small and micro worker ants cultivated in the advanced warrior stage to the barren plains.

The quantity doesn’t have to be too much, just two trips is enough.

Long Bai stayed and, together with Heiti, commanded the worker ants and opened the ant nest. At the same time, he also used the control throne to lay ant eggs and cultivate more worker ants and blue ants.

A batch of ant eggs is produced in five days. During this period, Longbai has time to head east into the mountainous forest areas where rainfall is abundant and life is prosperous, and he hunts large animals and brings them back.

Blue soldiers and blue ants are vegetarians, but it is best to eat more meat during the larval development stage, as they will grow faster and the adult ants will be stronger.

…

It's summer time.

The construction of the first branch nest has been completed, which is more than 20 meters deep underground and can accommodate about 500 mountain master-level specialized ants.

According to preliminary plans, 12 similar ant nests need to be built, so there is no rush for the time being.

Heiti directed the ant colony to first dig and build a reservoir in the plain near the ant nest. The planned length was 100 meters, the width was 30 meters, and the depth was 4 to 5 meters.

Long Bai himself returned to Molan Mountain and moved the ant colony from Molan Mountain to Hanlan Mountain. Junbai was responsible for starting the reclamation of Hanlan Mountain.

Immediately afterwards, Long Bai went to Black Lotus Lake and White Lotus Lake successively, and cultivated 200 specialized blue ants in separate nests in each place of force, which were used to harvest ripe fruits in the orchard, refine and store ant honey.

…

Time flies.

It's autumn time,

Heiti led the worker ants to dig the reservoir.

This reservoir will be used in the future to train specialized blue soldiers, exercise their water-based abilities, and practice battle formations.

The special blue soldiers have not yet started to be cultivated, so there is no rush to store water.

Turn around and dig up the second soldier ant nest.

It's winter time.

Together, Long Bai and Mo Lan hurriedly completed the northern Citizen Mountain, Yinbai Mountain, and Heiguo Mountain traveling merchant trade.

According to the agreement, Baifan will evolve into the Mountain Lord this winter.

The throne of rulership transported 50 bags of god-given debris along the way, and wandered to Baifanshan.

…

After all, the seed given by the God of White Rice is not a seed of destiny. When the height of the tree reaches about 60 meters, its growth rate suddenly slows down. It needs to absorb the force bit by bit to accumulate and transform its life levels. This will take ten years. A long process that takes hundreds of years.

"Red Fox!"

"White rice. Black rice."

Long Bai and Mo Lan jumped to the ground.

Meet and greet.

The throne of dominance shrank sharply, and the bag full of spider silk fell down with a clatter.

Mo Lan said: "We brought a large number of god-given wreckage along the way. Red Fox, please use more."

"OK."

"Thanks."

Red fox, white rice, and black rice express thanks.

Long Bai didn't say much and asked directly: "Baifan, how are you preparing?"

Bai Fan: "There are signs of breakthrough, and you can sleep and evolve at any time."

Long Bai waved his front legs to greet him, and the ruling throne followed and hung in the air, "That's good! Let's go to your living cave."

Bai Fan: "Okay!"

The group arrived at the cave where Bai Fan lived.

Put the throne of control in.

After eating and drinking enough, he jumped on the throne, adjusted his state, consumed the force ant honey, and began to evolve.

Dragon cypress, molan, and black rice used bundles of thorny thorns to block the entrance of the hole.

The remains of the God's gift were brought in, scraped into wood chips, and used to plant plants for Bai Fan's life.

There is no god-given seed for rice, and there are no worries. Breakthroughs in evolution are actually easier.

Three days later,

Bai Fan fell into a deep sleep.

Nine days later,

Violent force fluctuations suddenly erupted in the cave, and the ruling throne frantically extracted the natural force, forming a force vacuum covering a radius of 500 meters.

It lasted for half a day and calmed down again.

Long Bai and Mo Lan were already very experienced in breaking through the evolutionary mountain master level. They waited patiently for a while, feeling the force fluctuations in the cave, and then opened the thorns blocking the entrance of the cave.

The white rice has shed its old shell, its body has expanded, and its carapace is rapidly hardening.

It's almost over.

Long Bai unfolded his mental power, swept it across, turned around, and said calmly: "Everything went well, the evolution was successful."

"Wow~oh!"

Over the past few days, Wufan, who was feeling anxious and expectant, jumped up, jumped and cheered.
