Rest overnight.
The next morning, Long Bai sent Bai Qian back to Heiguo Mountain. When he returned to the purple linden country again, Mo Lan also completed the search for the god-given seed.
No gain.
Go for a walk around the desolate plains.
Wandering southward...
Finally we came to the Shuanglang Rainforest.
“Wang Bai!”
Mo Lan greeted with her mental power.
Kashiwa's divine seed responds to a friendly mental thought.
After nearly a year and a half of growth, the tree's height is close to 20 meters, and its spiritual power covers a radius of more than 200 meters.
Wang Bai directed the ant colony to cut down all the grass and trees within 100 meters of him and replace them with chickweed, dragonweed and plantain that would not compete with him for soil nutrients.
In the area between 100 and 200 meters, all the fruit trees that were originally planted were cleared and turned into nurseries. Seeds No. 3001 of Zhibai and Yinbai were sown. At present, they have grown to several centimeters to more than ten centimeters. Unequal seedlings.
Wang Bai plans to try planting some of his own species first, and after getting familiar with the whole process of seed breeding, he will gradually expand to other types of plants.
"Long Bai, can we choose seedlings now?" Wang Bai asked.
Long Bai guided: "When the height exceeds 10 centimeters, you can start the first selection of seedlings and eliminate a batch of weak seedlings."
Wang Bai: "What if there is an area where all the seedlings are strong? What should I do?"
Long Bai: "Pluck them out randomly to make room for other seedlings to grow. What if there is a small area where all the seedlings are weak? You can eliminate all the seedlings without hesitation, you can leave them alone, or you can replant them at the right time. However, if all the seedlings grow in a large area, you need to pay attention to check whether there is a problem with the soil or light, or the plot. Improper arrangement caused water accumulation problem.”
“Oh——”
Wang Bai is smart and understands it immediately, and he doesn’t even need to explain it in detail.
Long Bai didn't talk nonsense, his tentacles connected, and his four-shot prosperity ability fell.
Mo Lan jumped to the ground and ran on the ground, running towards her god-given red-leaf rain tree.
Long Bai: "Wang Bai, you are busy on your own. This year, Mo Lan and I are going to work in Wanglan Continent next door."
Wang Bai: "Okay——"
Long Bai also controls the throne and flies to the tree planted by the Elephant Foot King Orchid.
Xianglan: "..."
Long Bai's tentacles connected, and the four prosperity abilities fell.
Xiang Lan said dissatisfied: "Long Bai, why did you bring that praying mantis here again?"
Long Bai: "We are passing by, stay for a few days and then leave."
Xianglan: "Go quickly. Take the mantis away."
Xianglan asked again: "Won't you send a Zuowang over? Black Birch?"
Long Bai: "Heihua is reclaiming wasteland on Xiangsi Island. In two years, I will come over when I finish my work."
Xiang Lan: "Hurry up and finish my work."
Long Bai controls the floating throne of the throne. Fly, stop at the ant road at the edge of the ground, jump to the ground, and walk into the 'Wanglan Forest' for inspection.
After the height of the mother plant of the God-given Elephant Foot King Orchid exceeded 40 meters, its growth slowed down significantly. It is currently about 42 meters tall and grows less than half a meter in a year.
Branches are similar.
The two ramets of the first batch are over 40 meters tall and have not grown very much.
The second batch of 6 branches are less than 30 meters.
Currently, there are only 9 branches of different heights from the mother plant.
The 18 underground stems of the third batch of branches have just begun to grow, and it may take winter to derive bulbs and seedlings.
The God-given Seed of Elephant Foot King Orchid is an herbaceous branch development model, but the tough lignified trunk is destined to not grow as fast as a real herbaceous plant.
It will take about seven or eight years for all the branches to be fully grown.
The red-leaf rain tree next door started to bear fruit the year before last, and will start to produce profits in the next two years.
"Xianglan. Do you want me to arrange 100 more specialized green ants for you?"
"Yes!"
"Okay. In winter, I will bring black ants. Birch, cypress, and watermelon came together."
"What are you bringing crabs for? You're not allowed to bring them!"
Xiang Lan reacted violently, rejecting all force life except ants.
Long Bai: "The water chestnut won't come to you. It goes to Wang Bai."
Xiang Lan: "Be careful, it will cut off your cypress tree with its pliers."
The gap in wisdom between Xiang Lan and Wang Bai is clear at a glance.
Long Bai: "...No."
...
Long Bai plans to station 8,000 various types of soldier ants on Xiangsi Island. In recent years, due to the seeds given by King Bai God, Due to various delays, only half of the ants have been cultivated so far, less than 4,000 ants.
There is also Shuangzhu Island, where 1,000 worker ants are planned to be stationed, but currently there are none.
However, fortunately, the delay in the reclamation work of Xiangsi Island has not been serious, and the reclamation of 40 acres of land has been completed.
It is winter in the southern hemisphere, and the temperature in the tropics is just right. Black Birch is busy transplanting the silver cypress sapling No. 3001.
Xiu was also busy cutting wood with his pair of pliers.
Cuibai stood at the sentry post on the top of the mountain, activating his sunburn ability from time to time, observing around and always being vigilant.
Long Bai and Mo Lan arrived, and after a brief greeting, they got to work immediately.
Wanglan is a plant with remarkable characteristics and specialties. It is considered a plant worth investing time and energy in cultivating.
Planning to plant...
During the season when the orchid fruits were ripe, the dragon cypress and the ink orchid searched various offshore islands in the mainland and collected the thousand-clawed king orchid, the bird's beak king orchid, the pale king orchid, and the extremely narrow king orchid. There are 9 native varieties: berry orchid, berry king orchid, phoenix tail king orchid, curved leaf king orchid, thread leaf king orchid, plus elephant foot king orchid.
In addition, the Thousand Reef Islands Forest Vespa Kingdom cultivates a very good cultivar that can be seen by looking at the leaves and plant height.
Mo Lan landed on the island invisibly, and returned with a batch of seeds, which she named "Split-leaf King Orchid".
10 varieties in total.
Longbai plans to open 10 square kilometers of land on Xiangsi Island and Shuangzhu Island each to cultivate Wanglan.
Logging, crushing, retting, soil improvement, land preparation, digging irrigation ditches, sowing, watering...
Longbai has a new addition to his daily work: every morning and evening, Follow the instructions of the Linnan Sacred Tree to exercise the 'Frost Descent' and 'Frost Thorn' abilities for a certain period of time.
Being busy until winter.
Work is suspended.
The orchid, green cypress, black birch, and water chestnut all moved to the palm tree rain forest to rest and chat with the king cypress.
Long Bai was worried that Wang Bai would suddenly need a large amount of force at a certain growth stage, so he began to travel back and forth between Fanglan Mountain and Julang Rainforest to transport rough stones.
60,000 coins per trip, 20 trips, and a sufficient amount of 1.2 million will be stocked up at one time.
During the round trip, the Dominion Throne continued to produce ant eggs, and Long Bai also took care of them, and then cultivated 100 specialized green ants for the God-given seeds of the Elephant Foot King Orchid.
There are 300 specialized green ants dedicated to taking care of the elephant orchid.
With the elephant orchids now available, Wang Bai must not be left behind and must add 100 more.
Seeing that both Xiang Lan and Wang Bai were being taken care of by 300 specialized green ants, Mo Lan was not happy and the God-given seeds of the red leaf rain tree had to be arranged.
I have been busy all winter in the Shuanglang Rainforest...
...
Yinbai Year 9, early spring.
Cui Bai, Hei Hua, and Xiangsi returned to Xiangsi Island to continue their land reclamation work.
Long Bai and Mo Lan stayed in the Shuanglang Rainforest until the spring business trip was about to begin, so they seized the time to return to Xianglan Mountain.
Long cypress, along with ink orchid, silver cypress, fragrant cedar and black locust tree, is waiting on the western half slope of the mountain range.
When the golden sun rose completely in the eastern sky, the Edelweiss Spider King walked quickly and arrived on time.
“Edelweiss Spider King!”
"Hello, King Edelweiss Spider!"
"The King Edelweiss Spider is here~"
Long Bai and his party greeted.
“Lord Mo Lan, it’s really rare that you are here this year.”
The Snow Spider King responded.
Mo Lan: "I want to see the divine clam fruit with my own eyes!"
All eyes turned to the back armor of the Edelweiss Spider King.
Edelweiss Spider King: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my destiny, and the divine cranberry fruit has arrived as promised!"
Edelweiss Spider King said, untying the spider silk rope binding the goods on his back, He took it off and handed it to Mo Lan.
Open the bag, and inside is a slender multicolored clay pot with exquisite spider silk on the inside and outside.
Open the lid and seal the royal jelly.
“Wow——”
Xiang Bai exclaimed.
Dragon cypress, silver cypress, fragrant cypress, and black locust tree all moved to surround Mo Lan.
Scanning with mental power, you can see the oblong hard-core nut, bright crimson, with regularly interlaced ridges like a date pit, and scarlet Force veins running along the ridges throughout the core.
Strange and strange fluctuations of original energy are looming.
The 'Queen Bee's Heart' ability given by the divine wormwood fruit does not belong to any of the conventional energy systems of power, life, soul and seven elements, and is classified as a supernatural system.
A rare and highly valuable artifact.
“Here——”
Mo Lan helped, bending his tentacles into the jar, pulling out the fruit, making a stinging sound, licking off the royal jelly, and held it close to his eyes for a while. He looked at it carefully and handed it to Long Bai.
Long Bai: "..."
Long Bai took it and directed five small blue ants to quickly lick the royal jelly stuck to the fruit shell and spit it back into the jar. Edelweiss Spider King: "???"
Long Bai: "Edelweiss Spider King, there are no particularly important transactions this year. Cedar and Black Sophora can handle it, so I won't go there. "
Edelweiss Spider King: "Okay——"
Edelweiss Spider King: "This royal jelly..."
Long Bai: "In recent years, the trading volume of force honey has increased dramatically, and the demand for royal honey has also increased year by year. The royal jelly used for storage is stretched thin, and even a little bit cannot be used. Waste."
Edelweiss Spider King: "..."
What a fussy ant and mantis~
Pay attention to food hygiene~
I can’t eat your queen honey anymore~
The Edelweiss Spider King thought silently and greeted: "In that case, cedar and black locust, come with me."
Send away The edelweiss spider king, Long Bai, turned around, ran quickly back to the ant nest royal palace, and jumped on the throne.
Mo Lan also followed in.
Under Mo Lan's gaze, Long Bai carefully controlled a ray of raw energy to condense on the tip of his toe, gently cut open the shell, dug out the kernel, and swallowed it in one gulp.
The unique force energy slowly melts in the abdomen and flows throughout the body along with the blood.
A little bit similar to black lotus seeds, most of the original energy is integrated into the brain to strengthen and transform the brain!
——Good stuff!
——Everything related to the head is a good thing!
Long Bai commented silently.
Now a 7th-year-old lord, a king-level soul can easily absorb and digest all the original energy in just one day.
Mo Lan, who was guarding the cave, stood up first.
"Long Bai, how are you?"
"Very good! However, there are no surprises. It takes a molt and evolution to realize the corresponding abilities."
"Oh— —”
Mo Lan: "We are in urgent need of a god-given seed!"
Long Bai tapped his tentacles and corrected: "Two!"
Mo Lan's divine product, neem seed, is about to arrive. , the divine fruit that gives soul-based abilities was delivered 8 years later. Mo Lan will use two innate talents at the 2nd age stage, and her evolution will be greatly improved.
Molan also needs to shed her shell and evolve.
Moreover, the divine Meranzi is about to mature and be harvested, so everyone has no shortage of resources needed for evolution.
In urgent need of God-given seeds.
......
One more thing...
Spade ate a divine black ink fruit...
Long Bai went to Molan After a trip to the mountain, I took Spades back to Xianglan Mountain. After simple preparations, I evolved into a 2nd age lord-level king.
Successfully comprehended the ability of the Red Crow Pattern.
Spade will stay in Fanglan Mountain first, and strengthen all the plants planted in Fanglan Mountain.
When there is time in the future, Long Bai will take it with him and go to various places of force in turn, using red black patterns to strengthen his and Mo Lan's life plants.
…
Spring deal ends.
Long Bai and Mo Lan quickly completed the work on Yunji Continent, entered Wanglan Continent, and continued the reclamation work on Xiangsi Island.
……
Silver cypress 10 years old.
The reclamation projects of Xiangsi Island and Shuangzhu Island have been completed.
The size of the ant colony that runs the island is still less than 2,000, and Long Bai stays on the island and is responsible for subsequent management.
Cui Bai, Black Sophora japonica, and Ligusticum japonica went to Shaking Leaf Island to conduct a relatively thorough pruning of the various fruit trees planted in the orchard.
At the same time,
in the northern hemisphere purple linden country, the iteratively updated saplings of Silver Cypress No. 1005 and Silver Cypress No. 1102 began to grow, and the first batch of flowers and fruits began to bloom.
The first batch of seeds can be collected this autumn, and can be sent to various places of force next spring to start a new generation of seedling selection and breeding.
…
Silver cypress 11 years old.
Cuibai, Black Sophora japonica, and Azuki returned to Yunji Continent for a year's vacation.
Longbai completed the cultivation of ant colonies on Xiangsi Island and Shuangzhu Island.
For the island territories controlled by the Southern Hemisphere, all work has been completed, and subsequent operations only require regular visits to take care of them.
…
Suddenly they had bad luck and couldn't find the God-given seeds. Both Long Bai and Mo Lan started to feel anxious.
…
Silver Cypress 12 years old.
Yinbai No. 2001 finally produced Yinbai No. 2002 with better seedlings.
Long Bai’s focus shifted to the Northern Hemisphere.
Bring along the black leaves, black birches, and black cypresses to start a comprehensive iterative update of the silver cypress trees in the seven places of origin: Hanlan Mountain, Jianlan Plain, Red Hinoki Mountain, Cicada Mountain, Hulan Mountain, Xuelan Mountain, and Panlan Mountain. Work.
The workflow is not complicated.
Eradicate the original old cypress trees and dig out the stems.
Crush all the branches and leaves into compost, mix with soil, backfill the forest land, and improve the soil.
Transplanting new saplings.
All the work was carried out simultaneously, and the workload was quite large. Each Force Land had a planting area of at least 15 square kilometers, and there were 7 Force Lands with a total area of 110 square kilometers.
It took three years and it was finally finished.
All the territories in the northern and southern hemispheres have been taken care of, and the rest is daily maintenance work. There is no particularly heavy work in a short period of time.
Prince Zuo’s task assignment has been simply adjusted.
Cuibai stayed at Xianglan Mountain and rested for two years.
Silver cypress, black birch, and water chestnut are permanently stationed on Yee Island in Wanglan Continent. You only need to go to Xiangsi Island once a year to prune the fruit trees.
…
Silver Cypress 15 years old.
The spring trade is over, Long Bai and Mo Lan pack up and set off to start this year's search for the God-given seeds.
There is nothing to be busy with, just stop and go along the way to collect animal and plant samples.
The ruling throne flew low and low against the mountains and forests, then entered the palm rainforest with a full load, heading straight to the location where the seed given by the god Kashiwa took root.
"Huh?"
"Oh——"
"Long cypress! Look! The top of the king cypress tree!"
Mo Lan has sharp eyes, looking across the room From four to five hundred meters away, you can see that at the top of the tree, little silver rays are reflected in the sunlight.
Long Bai also noticed something strange. He looked closely and saw that it was a round fruit about three centimeters in diameter.
——The seed given by King Kashiwa has blossomed? !
——Not only are they blooming, but the fruits are quite big.
——Isn’t that right? when?
——We were here last autumn, and it should be the flowers that bloomed last winter or this spring.
--Um! right! Wow!
“Okay!”
Mo Lan cheered, spread her wings and soared into the air, her body flashed, and she flew toward the seed given by the great king Bai Shen.
Long Bai also urged the throne to move forward at full speed.
"Cypress!"
As he got closer, Wang Bai took the initiative to greet him and introduced cheerfully: "Long Bai, look at the top of the tree! I have blossomed. There is a fruit hanging."
Long Bai: "...I saw it."
Long Bai: "A flower?"
Wang Bai: "Only one."
Molan circled three times around the god-given seed of King Bai. Landing on the top of the throne's backrest, he said: "Long Cypress, there is only one fruit."
Dragon Cypress: "I saw it——"
After 8 years of growth, the King Cypress God-given plant is nearly 100 meters tall.
Such a big tree, one fruit?
Long Bai's thoughts changed rapidly, and he understood instantly, and said in surprise: "Wang Bai is a divine seed similar to the Yizhao flower and the olive tree!"
Mo Lan's eyes As soon as it lit up, I shouted in surprise: "Yes!"
An idea flashed in Mo Lan's mind, and he added: "There is also Phytophthora spp., the Phytophthora lanternus seed given by the God of Flame Spider! The cave paintings show that it only produces one fruit at a time."
Long Bai clicked. The tentacles said heavily: "Yes!"
Long Bai calmly analyzed: "One fruit at a time, the flower and fruit cycle is still relatively long. Calculated evenly, the yield is not satisfactory. The divine grade Yi Zhao fruit is 6 Years, the magic flower fruit is 8 years."
Mo Lan: "Yes! Preliminary estimate, the flower fruit cycle of the magic king is 6 to 8 years. The level may be a little longer."
Mo Lan tilted her head, calculated, and said depressedly: "Long Bai, that's not right! The ability given may be very powerful, but how high can the unit price be? 5 million? 10 million? The Soul-type Divine Grade Six Daozi is only sold for 12 million. On average, the income is not high! If the ability given is not good, then the average annual income is less than one million. Da Lan..."
This account can be calculated like this...
But what if it is at the level of the divine Phytolacca fruit?
Everything is possible!
Long Bai's heart was still burning, and his consciousness shifted, and he praised Wang Bai: "Wang Bai, you did a good job!"
The throne of control stopped under the tree.
Long Bai connected his tentacles and fired eight consecutive rounds of prosperity power. He waved his claws and said grandly: "Wang Bai, the raw stones are stored in the ant nest treasure house. If necessary, you can direct the worker ants to take them. There is no need to save. While you are bearing fruits, you Don't delay your growth."
Wang Bai: "Longbai...the original stone...is gone..." (End of this chapter)
