Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 884 650: Great Ink Orchid

Silver Cypress Year 158.

Expedition Year.

Dragon Cypress has gone through the experience for the third time, already a Wanglan Insect, such law power merely swept by.

Mountain Persimmon is about the same, having experienced it once, the law power won't linger.

Ink Orchid, Yellow Stem, Spruce, Ghost Fan, and Woodberry all insects experiencing this for the first time, trembling in a cave.

Cautiously lurking for three months, the law power didn't sweep back.

No accidents occurred, safely passed through.

A banquet was held to celebrate, Dragon Cypress began to busy itself.

Yellow Stem's God-Given Life Seed took root on Rainbow Island, with Spruce helping manage things, Yellow Stem returned to Purple Tung Insect Nation permanently. It needed to protect Common Shield Katydid and work hard to cultivate more Shield Katydid Little Warriors.

The same for Wuye, the God-Given Life Seed took root on Rainbow Island, and the insect returned to Purple Tung Insect Nation.

According to plan, Blue Catalpa and Snakebark Maple returned to Kiwifruit Mountain to take root, Black Rice returned to White Rice Mountain to accompany Red Fox...

Ink Orchid wasn't idle either, traveling alone to Fragrant Silk Island, Swinging Leaf Island, and Thous Reef Archipelago to search for Blessed Seed.

Dragon Cypress was busy going back and forth, handling all sorts of matters, yet Ink Orchid was still nowhere to be seen.

Dragon Cypress wasn't worried about Ink Orchid's safety, not mentioning its combat power, activating Ink Orchid form to run away, with lightning speed, no insect could catch up.

Waited peacefully for five to six days, still no sign of the insect returning.

Dragon Cypress had a guess in mind, most likely discovered the Blessed Seed, unable to move away.

Certainly not on Fragrant Silk Island.

Fragrant Silk Island is close to Rainbow Island, surely it could have run faster to inform everyone.

Dragon Cypress packed up and set off directly for Swinging Leaf Island.

...

At a distance of forty to fifty kilometers, Dragon Cypress sensed a sweep by the Soul-Setting Ability, simultaneously activating Soul-Setting Ability to lock on in reverse.

"Great King! Blessed Seed!"

"I know."

"If you knew, why did you come so late?"

"Stop nagging. I was busy as the Great King."

Dragon Cypress continuously activated Wind Wings Ability, simultaneously used Flash Strike Ability, flashing accelerated speed to the island.

Swinging Leaf Island is not small either; discovered two hundred years ago, this is the first Blessed Seed born on the island.

In the dense rainforest, Ink Orchid guarded below a Sea Tong Tree two to three meters high.

On the tree, a half-grown deformed Green Fruit, emitting weak Origin Force Fluctuation.

——A certain Sea Tong Tree Blessed Seed!

The Sea Tong Tree is considered a large family in the plant world, recorded in Inherited Memory with over 300 species, cold-resistant and heat-loving, with strong environmental adaptability, spread across the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, especially common in tropical islands.

Ninety percent of the Sea Tong Tree family are Water System, a minority are Life System, and a very few are other mutated Elemental System.

This one...

Dragon Cypress carefully examined.

Ink Orchid: "Six-Seed Sea Tong!"

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Typically, Sea Tong Tree seeds per fruit number five, with exceptions, having four named 'Four-Seed Sea Tong', and six, which is the 'Six-Seed Sea Tong' before us.

The enhancement effect is for Water System, specifically enhancing abilities like large-scale water control such as waves, tsunamis, and the four corners of the realm.

Similar to Blue Ice Cypress, it strengthens a specific type of ability, has a relatively high unit price, but due to poor yield and quality, income won't be high, King-Level, approximate 400 thousand per year.

"Pretty good!"

"Second King is impressive!"

Dragon Cypress gave a perfunctory compliment.

Ink Orchid, dissatisfied, snorted and sincerely said: "Can we repay the Blessed Seed we owe to Mulberry now?"

Dragon Cypress: "Barring any surprises, it's possible. This Six-Seed Sea Tong Blessed Seed is neither too high nor too low, just right."

Ink Orchid reminded: "Dragon Cypress, didn't you forget? We consumed Divine-Grade Sea Spring Fruit, the Sea Spring Ability, and need the Sea Tong Tree Seed as a carrier material for ability execution. Can the Six-Seed Sea Tong suffice?"

"It should work?"

Dragon Cypress wasn't sure either.

This ability was tested only when it was first comprehended, and has not been used since.

Dragon Cypress added: "Whether it works or not, it doesn't make much difference."

"True..."

Ink Orchid gleefully said: "Then let's give it to Mulberry. So, now we're only owing... still owe three Blessed Seeds?"

Dragon Cypress: "Yes! Second King, keep it up!"

Ink Orchid: "Will you stay here to guard? I'll quickly check over Thous Reef Archipelago."

Dragon Cypress: "Okay—"

Ink Orchid left.

Dragon Cypress surveyed around, expanded spiritual power to sweep through once, released Insect King's pressure in full to scare off potential threats to the fruit on the tree from insects, rodents, and birds, took flight, and examined the Swinging Leaf Iron Core Tree Blessed Seed.

Every year, Ink Orchid searched twice in Wanglan Continent, and came to Swinging Leaf Island twice.

Swinging Leaf Iron Core Tree has always been in a rest-flower rest-fruit state, arranged with 100 King-Level Specialized Green Ants dedicated to taking care of it, remained in a state of flourishing tree vigor for nearly seventy years.

However, limited by evolution degree, the growth of the tree itself is inevitably slow, with height exceeding 200 meters, and increasing only 10 to 20 centimeters annually afterward.

Growth of wild God-Given Seed evolves too slowly, too arduous, currently showing no signs of breaking through evolution to King-Level.

"In the future, when world peace arrives, arrange for Black Peach to guard the island for a hundred eighty years or so, eventually close enough..."

Dragon Cypress ruminated, tapped antennae several times, issued ten Flourish Abilities continuously, followed by three Red Crow Pattern Abilities descending, enveloped by rising green mist.

No need for much management, returning under Six-Seed Sea Tong Tree to guard steadily.

Four days later,

Ink Orchid completed searching the Thous Reef Archipelago and returned, coming back empty-handed.

Ink Orchid alone stayed to guard Swinging Leaf Island.

Dragon Cypress returned to Rainbow Island.

…

...

For the past two years, under the threat of Kirin Beast Ant King, Round Cypress and Black Peach took refuge at Xianglan Mountain, Black Birch and Black Persimmon led armies in preparations, and management of Rainbow Island's orchard somewhat impacted.

The cultivation work of mutated Elephant Foot King Orchid must not be neglected, updated iteratively for the third time.
