Astral Ant Tribe

Long Bai activated his water escape ability and lurked in the river ditch at the foot of the mountain. He used the water flow to cover his aura and remained motionless for eight consecutive days, bored out of his mind, secretly observing the movements of the bee swarm on the island.

The king-level specialized worker bees of the wasp kingdom have relatively high intelligence. They will lead the bee swarm to patrol the orchard, hunt insects, beasts and birds, pick ripe fruits in time, bag them and transport them back to their separate nests.

When there is excess food in the branch nests, they will organize a team and send them back to the main nest in the kingdom.

However, their wisdom only goes so far. Without the command of King Zuo, they will not take the initiative to collect inedible poisonous fruits such as orchids. They will not go to the garden where the split-leaf king orchids are planted, and will allow the ripe fruits to fall to the ground. fall.

After many days of good weather, the color of the God-given fruit of the split-leaf king orchid, exuding the aura of the Force, gradually changed from green to green with a hint of orange-red.

Maturity is imminent.

Just when Long Bai thought everything was safe, his heart skipped a beat in the middle of the morning.

Activate the soul-fixing ability induction to reversely anchor Mo Lan's position.

"The second king?"

"Your Majesty, it's not good! I saw a large swarm heading towards the island! At least five thousand of them! Coming from the direction of the Wasp Kingdom on the main continent."

"receive--"

Long Bai's soul-fixing ability continued to activate, and his consciousness deflected the induction. Sure enough, a highly dense swarm of bees flew onto the island.

All are at the lord level.

The lord-level queen bee brings two assistant kings, one is lord-level and the other is mountain lord-level.

After landing on the island, the queen bee landed motionless.

The bee swarm was divided into two, commanded by two Zuwang respectively, and acted separately.

The intention couldn't be more obvious,

This is the young queen bee of the Mori Wasp Kingdom personally leading the bee swarm to the island to collect seeds and search for the seeds given by the gods.

They are a sweeping search. The bee swarm plucks all the ripe fruits and seeds along the way, gathers them in one place, and is inspected and screened by the queen bee and the queen bee.

In this collection mode, all plants on the island are doomed.

Mo Lan: "Your Majesty, have you seen it?"

Long Bai: "I sensed it."

Mo Lan: "What should I do? Will you be discovered?"

Long Bai: "I won't be discovered, but with their size and mottled environment, it's hard to use their abilities..."

Mo Lan: "Then..."

Long Bai stood up, and the clear water condensed into a layer of light blue white frost on his body. He held his breath and tried his best to avoid leaving any smell. He quickly ran to the hillside orchard. With a swing of his tentacles, he knocked off the split-leaf king orchid god-given fruit on the tree and hid it with his mouth open. Mouth, turn around and run.

The soul-fixing ability senses the direction of the swarm, avoids it from a distance, runs to the coast in one breath, submerges into the sea, and sneaks away from the island.

Mo Lan continued to activate his soul-fixing ability, sensing Long Bai's movements at all times, following the movements, walking across the sea, and came closer with a flash of his body.

Long Bai released the throne of control, zoomed in, took Mo Lan and dived a hundred meters under the sea, quickly moving away.

"Longcypress? God-given seeds...picked?"

"Pick it off. The Control Throne can assist in repairing it, so it should be fine."

Long Bai buried his head and spit out the half-green and half-yellow fruit.

Mo Lan picked it up with the tip of her toe, cut it carefully, and peeled out the seeds inside.

The seed shell is brownish-red, and its surface is covered with faint white Force veins.

It is estimated that it will take about 10 days to fully mature.

——Is it possible?

Mo Lan was secretly worried.

Long Bai concentrated on controlling the throne and sneaked, forty or fifty kilometers away from the island, and surfaced.

Mo Lan placed the seeds in the center of the throne and jumped off the throne with Long Bai.

After waiting for about ten seconds, Long Bai's tentacles flickered.

A prompt message came from the throne of domination: [Natural force plant seeds were found and are in an endangered state. Do you want to treat them? 】

Endangered?

More serious than expected.

Long Bai decisively chose [Yes]

The Throne of Control releases the original energy of the blue water system, wrapping the seeds to form a blue cocoon of light, and the original energy continues to be injected...

After a long time, the original light slowly dimmed and the light cocoon disappeared.

On the surface of the brown-red seed shell, there is a layer of bright white Force veins.

call--

Long Bai and Mo Lan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Mo Lan happily praised: "The throne of control is so powerful!"

Long Bai clicked his tentacles in agreement.

Mo Lan: "This god-given seed...does the king invite you first?"

"I will evolve to the 8th and 9th ages as soon as possible, and prepare to break through to the king level as soon as possible."

Long Bai did his duty, jumped onto the throne, buried his head in a scroll and put it into his life bag.

Long Bai: "I may have accidentally left a breath on the island, let's leave quickly!"

…

Long Bai and Mo Lan ran back to Yaoye Island in one go and stayed on the island for five days to make sure everything was fine.

After wandering to Xiangsi Island and staying there for a month, Long Bai personally directed the ant colony and took care of the orchards on Xiangsi Island.

Return to Yunji Continent,

Xuanlang Rainforest inspected the situation and found that fortunately, the seeds given by King Kashiwa were in good order, using 45,000 rough stones every month, and the growth rate was maintained at a normal level.

Long Bai and Mo Lan rushed to Mo Lan Mountain again.

Before the throne of rulership even landed, the spiritual power of the gods-given seeds from King Mo Lan, Leigang Quercus, and Beikuiyu came forward.

Erlan asked: "Where did you two go? Dalan's fruit will be ripe soon."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai calmly explained: "There are many things going on in the southern hemisphere this year, let's deal with them."

Erlan: "What is more important than harvesting the divine fruits when they are ripe?"

Long Bai: "I picked up a god-given seed. I will soon be able to evolve into an 8-year-old lord, which is a big step closer to the king level."

Erlan: "Oh——"

Erlan: "What kind of god-given seeds?"

You talk more nonsense than Nanqian and Heihuang combined~

Long Bai: "Split-leaf King Orchid."

The ruling throne rested on the edge of where the branch of King Molan's divinely-given seed took root.

"The Great King! The Second Great King!"

Spades came forward and took the initiative to report: "Everything is normal!"

Mo Lan also said: "I just communicated with Dalan. It said that the reserves of Shuojin are sufficient and there is no need to replenish the force."

Spade raised his paw and pointed at the gloomy sky and said: "My lord, my lord, it has been raining for four or five days in a row and it still hasn't cleared up. The rainy weather will definitely delay the ripening time of the fruit."

Mo Lan: "Yeah. Yes. Long Bai, Da Lan said the weather has been bad these days."

"Easy! Just in time, I can also practice my water ability!"

With a thought, Long Bai carried Mo Lan vertically into the sky on the control throne, flying above the sea of ​​clouds, and together they activated their water-based abilities, causing insects to rain.

After two or three days of busy work, everything was done.

We gathered together under the Leigan oak tree, chatting and waiting. Long Bai tells everyone about the various anomalies and speculations about the God-given seeds of King Bai, the development status and latest situation in Wanglan Continent, and the latest harvest of the split-leaf King Orchid God-given seeds...

At the end of summer, after a heavy rain, the scorching heat subsides.

On a sunny morning after the rain,

Dalan's mental power came over, and a joyful and urging mental power idea was transmitted to Long Bai and Spades.

Mo Lan jumped first, hovered in the air, looked around, and cheered: "The divine Mo Lanzi will be mature soon!"

In the second batch of harvest, the cypress and spades no longer had the freshness and expectation of the first time.

Long Bai asked perfunctorily: "Mo Lan, do you need raw stones to replenish your original power?"

Mo Lan contacted Da Lan and replied seriously: "No need!"

The ruling throne was lifted off the ground, flying at low altitude, close to the mother orchid plant, to check the situation up close.

The fruits at the top of the 12 branches are rapidly undergoing the final qualitative transformation of their original energy. The majestic force is flowing out from the mother plant, passing through the underground stems, and flowing into the 12 branches.

The speed at which other surrounding ramets absorb the Force has increased. Likewise, the endless stream of Force is transmitted layer by layer through the underground stems, and finally flows into the 12 ramets bearing fruit.

Under the morning light,

The dark green fruit pods have yellow spots that gradually spread.

Lasts until noon,

The qualitative transformation of the original energy is over, and all the fruit pods are earthy yellow in color. Under the scorching sun, a gap naturally cracks, revealing the orchid seeds inside.

Totally mature!

The dragon cypress shook its tentacles and issued an order: Harvest!

The 12 worker ants who had been waiting for a long time climbed up the branches, cut their jaws and picked the fruits.

Spades led a group of small and medium-sized blue ants in preparation, with 12 metal cans lined up in front of them.

The divine molanzi was delivered and stuffed into jars respectively.

The blue ants climbed up the metal can and vomited out the royal ant jelly from their abdomens, layer by layer, until they were completely covered, completing the encapsulation.

Long Bai personally activated his metal ability and tightened the can lid.

Mo Lan used two large spider silk bags and packed them up at once.

——It’s done!

Long Bai: "Mo Lan, ask Da Lan if there is any original energy left in Shuo Jin?"

Mo Lan immediately communicated with Da Lan and asked, turning around and replied: "Da Lan said there are still some."

Mo Lan asked: "Didn't you say that the seed bestowed by King Bo doesn't need shining gold?"

Long Bai: "I know. What I mean is, do you need to replenish the original energy to ensure that it blooms and bears fruits on time next spring?"

Mo Lan communicated with Da Lan again and replied: "No need!"

King Molan's god-given seed is really good. It yields a lot of fruits, has a high price, and requires very little operating investment.

"That's good! Shuo Jin will be left to Da Lan."

Long Bai turned around and briefly explained to Spades and Leigang Oak, then set off on the throne of control.

The god-given Mo Lanzi was first sent to the Citizen Treasure House for preservation.

…

Nothing happens in early autumn.

Currently, there is nothing urgent happening in the entire territory.

Long Bai and Mo Lan had nothing to do, wandering around various places of the Force, and also caring about the growth and evolution of other insects and the development of their territories.

Unknowingly, Long Bai and Mo Lan's original intentions have completely changed.

At first,

Long Bai and Mo Lan thought about discovering and helping more Zerg warriors grow in Yunji Continent. They each chose different types of plants as life seeds. If one day the starship channel connecting the Continent of All Nations disappears, everyone can also evolve to the king level by exchanging force food with each other.

Nowadays, a second passage to the southern hemisphere has been successfully opened, and everyone's level of evolution has improved. This worry no longer exists.

At first,

Long Bai and Mo Lan also relied on the traveling merchant transactions within Yunji Continent to earn income. The most profitable ghost fan, the God-given ghost fan, had a profit of nearly 40%, which was even more ruthless than the spider.

Later, as everyone became familiar with each other, the rates gradually dropped to 20%, 10%, and 5%, basically just a hard-earned fee.

Now, the hard work fee is waived.

The annual income of the Xianglan Mountain Kingdom exceeds tens of millions of raw stones. The evolution of Longbai and Molan no longer lacks resources, and the kings can also maintain a relatively fast evolution rate, no longer needing the little profit from the transaction.

In the future, when Long Bai and Mo Lan evolve to the king level, there will inevitably be surplus resources, so it doesn't hurt to give everyone some support.

It is best for old friends who have known each other for more than a hundred years to leave the Star Realm of the Force together.

…

Time has come again in the middle of winter.

In the Julang Rainforest, the reserve of rough stones has bottomed out.

It is speculated that this spring, the divine cypress fruits planted by the gods will expand for the second time.

Long Bai was so cruel that he ran for two months and shipped another 1.2 million.

…

Yinbai 17 years old,

spring.

Mo Lan, Cui Bai, Black Birch, and Water Lily stayed together in the Juanglang Rain Forest, watching to see clearly what was going on when Wang Bai's fruit expanded.

There are several big deals coming this spring. Long Bai returned to Xianglan Mountain half a month in advance and waited at the peak on the west side of the mountain.

As early as the first meeting, Long Bai had carefully observed the Edelweiss Spider King and made a comprehensive analysis.

The Edelweiss Spider King has a bold personality, but his temper tends to be impatient.

This year is the delivery period for the divine product Melanzi, and at the same time, the divine fruit that imparts soul-type talents has arrived.

Long Bai predicted that it would be impatient and came in advance, so he waited in advance.

However……

I waited left and right, but there was no sign of the Edelweiss Spider King.

Until the annual trading day…

Miscalculated...

Dragon cypress brought juniper, silver cypress, fragrant cedar, and black locust, and they waited together on the mountain early.

Juniper and silver cypress activate their sunburn ability from time to time and look into the distance.

early morning,

A colorful figure appeared under the divine barrier and moved quickly along the ant path.

"coming!"

Juniper shouted excitedly, jumped and roared down the mountain peak, and ran forward to greet them.

The Edelweiss Spider King arrived at Fanglan Mountain just as it did in previous years when the sun appeared in the eastern sky.

"Edelweiss Spider King!"

"Hello, King Edelweiss Spider!"

"The Edelweiss Spider King is so on time!"

Dragon cypress, silver cypress, and fragrant cypress also rushed forward to greet him.

Edelweiss Spider King: "...Okay!"

The edelweiss spider king looked at the juniper and asked: "Longbai ant king, do you plan to give the second clam fruit to this king?"

Long Bai: "There is no way. Juniper, giant cypress, green cypress, and silver cypress are the four dedicated kings who fight, but there are only 3 divine cranium berries left, so we can only distribute them in order according to the order of their birth."

Long Bai: "Perhaps, when you enter the outer world in the future, you can still find a fruit queen bee, and then think of a way to exchange one for Yin Bai. For the time being, I can only watch and arrange another better divine product for it. It’s fruitful.”

Edelweiss Spider King: "Also——"

Edelweiss Spider King: "I hope everyone can still meet the Yiguo Queen Bee in the outer world."

The Snow Velvet Spider King untied the spider silk rope binding the goods on his back and handed a spider silk bag to Long Bai.

The second divine cranberry fruit!

"Thank you, Edelweiss Spider King!"

The juniper thanked them happily, turned around, squeezed away the cedar and silver cedar, and pressed closely against the dragon cypress.

Long Bai quickly opened it, checked it briefly, raised his paw and handed it to Juniper. At the same time, he swung his tentacles and whipped Juniper on the head.

"No hurries?"

"No rush." ​​Juniper cheered: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is wise and mighty! Your Majesty is generous..."

Juniper carried the bag of spider silk, turned around and rushed towards the ant nest...

The Edelweiss Spider King choked for a long time and couldn't help but said: "Longbai Ant King, your assistant king was trained very early, right?"

Long Bai: "Yes——"

The Edelweiss Spider King euphemistically said: "In Wanglan Continent, the ant queens and bee queens are usually at the mountain master level before they consider cultivating their assistant kings. In this way, they can better pass on the power of their own bloodline and developed minds."

Long Bai: "I was careless at the time. But I have already cultivated it, and it is too late to regret."

Edelweiss Spider King: "Of course, it's not a big problem for you. According to my observation, silver cypress and juniper have their own personalities, which is quite interesting."

Yinbai: "???"

How did you get involved with me?

Yinbai didn't dare to refute.

Black Sophora hurried over a little later, carrying a bag of spider silk.

"I've seen the Edelweiss Spider King!"

"Your Majesty!"

Black Sophora japonica behaved well and handed the spider silk bag to Long Bai.

Long Bai waved his tentacles to signal.

Black Locust then respectfully handed the spider silk bag to the Edelweiss Spider King, "Edelweiss Spider King, according to the agreement, we will deliver 2 pieces of the magic orchid seeds harvested last year. Please check and confirm."

Heihuai and Spades, who were born late, have no major faults except lack of diligence.

"--good!"

The Edelweiss Spider King took it, opened it and checked it. His mental power swept through it, and he was slightly happy and said: "These two divine grade Melanzi will be sent to Boshu Bay. I have to wait for the next batch to be produced. It’s good to eat.”

The Edelweiss Spider King asked again: "Where is Mo Lan? Where are you busy again?"

Long Bai: "Molan Mountain, take care of the seed given by King Molan. The big orchid needs to rest and recover. It will bloom and bear fruits on time in the coming spring."

"Oh! Yes!"

The Edelweiss Spider King suddenly understood, quickly packed up the goods, and asked: "Longbai Ant King, are the trading army ready? Let's set off, there will be some great things delivered this year."

"Cedar, black locust, let's go!"

Long Bai gave the order.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Black Locust turned around, shook his tentacles and gave orders. The instructions were passed from level to level, and the trading ant army marched out of the mountain branch nest.

Long Bai and the Edelweiss Spider King walked side by side at the front of the team, chatting.

Long Bai asked: "King Edelweiss Spider, has a new round of war between Boshu Bay and Blue Island begun?"

The Edelweiss Spider King: "The war started last year. It has turned into a regular war in the past. The United Kingdom of Hashu Bay stationed heavy troops on Hacai Island for defense, and the Ishikari blue ant army attacked. The main battlefield was at Hacai Island, but at the same time, The Ishikari Blue Ants will also send many branch teams to land secretly and raid other coastal kingdoms..."

Edelweiss Spider King: "This war is different. The Holy Butterfly Kingdom has confirmed that it has officially joined the Bo Shuwan Kingdom Alliance and will participate in the war between Bo Shuwan and Blue Island for a long time. This time, the Holy Butterfly Tribe sent 50 butterfly kings. Divide into 5 teams and ambush in the coastal kingdom..."

The Edelweiss Spider King told Long Bai the battle situation in detail.

Nothing major happened here in Yunji Continent. The Edelweiss Spider King was talking along the way.

When finished speaking.

The team also arrived at the Hongnan Mountain branch nest.
