Ant Lord in the Star Realm

"Wow!"

"We've hit the jackpot~!"

"Sell it! Sell it! Sell everything!"

"Buy Primordial Gemstones!"

"A bunch of blockheaded oafs! What are you selling for? Wouldn't it be better to directly exchange third-level materials and third-level gemstones?"

"Right! Get me Primordial Gemstones in exchange!"

"I want a hundred!"

...

The group of trees cheered first, then started arguing.

Dragon Cypress raised its spiritual power and said calmly: "That Captain Upright Lotus is quite rare, a Spider with a brain and integrity. I sought its advice. When we go to the White Crystal Star System, there are two good places to spend this wealth."

"The first option is obviously to exchange it for Primordial Gemstones, to enhance the Divine God-Given Seed and a large number of Divine-Given Seeds, and Common Life Seeds."

"The second option is to find the right opportunity to rent an Origin Point, manage a Life Planet, collect more Divine-Given Seeds, nurture reliable warriors, and expand our force."

Southern Gorgon: "I'll choose the first one."

Northern Gorgon: "Definitely the first one!"

Black Yellow: "Ant, do we even have to think about it?"

Emerald Flower Cold Orchid: "It must be the Primordial Gemstones!"

Bicolor Mulberry: "Ant, you're really naggy, the second option doesn't even need consideration, no need to mention it."

The trees surprisingly agreed for once.

Dragon Cypress, too lazy to say more, lightning flashed from its tentacles, swatting away Spiked Cypress, Silver Cypress, Black Peach, and a few others who tried to grab the treasures, while the Shanglu Divine Pattern continued to shimmer, flicking its tentacle to gather them all up.

Red Peach questioned: "Dragon Cypress Ant King, you and Ink Orchid have gained so many benefits, the other five Flame Spider Warriors must have even richer rewards, right?"

Dragon Cypress: "Of course they do."

Ink Orchid mysteriously said: "Chairman White Ivy, there's something else that you're sure to be interested in!"

"Me?"

White Ivy was puzzled, "What thing?"

Ink Orchid: "Take a guess!"

White Ivy: "That's too hard to guess. I'm interested in any valuable treasure!"

Ink Orchid: "Something useful for your evolutionary growth!"

"That could be too much to list..."

White Ivy said, suddenly reacting, with all eight eyes shining brightly, asked: "Could it be something from the Spatial System?"

Ink Orchid praised: "Chairman White Ivy is really smart! Exactly! It's a treasure that can help you comprehend Spatial Power, and even has a chance to understand Spatial Abilities!"

"!!!"

White Ivy straightened its legs, eagerly asking: "What is it? Where's the item? Did the old spider snatch it away? Surely! Old spiders with awakened Spatial Talents, surely there is none for me."

Ink Orchid: "...A bit."

Dragon Cypress didn't waste words, placing a square black metal case in front of them.

Spiked Cypress tried to extend its claw.

Snap!

Dragon Cypress curved its tentacle, a flash of lightning struck back its claw.

"Don't move!"

Dragon Cypress straightforwardly said: "Remains of an Overlord, who awakened Spatial Talents and mastered numerous powerful Spatial Abilities! A complete specimen, taken by Upright Lotus, Kansui, and Giant Taro. They gave us a bit as a sample."

"Even just a small sample, the residual might is enough to deter all insects and trees present to death."

This is something the Great Leader Dragon Cypress never jokes about!

All insects and trees were in shock.

Getting close, stretching out a claw, White Ivy, who was eager to see, retracted in a flash at the words.

Silver Cypress and Black Peach, who were closely attached to Dragon Cypress's sides, were so frightened they trembled their tentacles, retreating rapidly.

Dragon Cypress stated: "It's the pressure of Law Primordial Energy, not targeted substantial attack. Ink Orchid and I have barely adapted to some of it, but it's not enough. Let's go to a secluded place and try again. After one round of Chrysalis Transformation, we should fully adapt."

"Only after fully adapting, will I have the ability to observe, analyze, and then imitate and simulate this alien race."

All insects nodded their tentacles in understanding.

Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid attempted first.

As long as one of Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid succeeds.

The other insects can follow suit.

Ink Orchid immediately called: "Everyone come up! I'll use the Radiant Throne to carry you!"

Dragon Cypress warned: "Those who haven't reached the Star Realm level of evolution, be careful of getting hurt. Green Heart, Rainbow Mulberry, Greenstone, Starry Cloud Cypress, you all stay put."

…

…

Solitary Wolf and the remnants of the Spatial Overlord, Upright Lotus shared some with Dragon Cypress, and using materials scavenged from the ruins, crafted two clunky 'Soul Consoling Boxes' with rough claw technique.

The Spatial Overlord's remains retained relatively good condition due to the protection of combat armor, even sustaining blood and flesh.

Upright Lotus provided two sections of claw, two teeth, and sealed a wisp of still-living heart blood inside the teeth.

Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid carried the Soul Consoling Box to a secluded mountain gully in their territory.

The other insects all hid three kilometers away.

With preparations complete,

Dragon Cypress bent its tentacle, a point of Metal System Primordial Energy gathered, with two clicks, mechanisms inside the metal box engaged, the lid flipping open.

A large metal box nested a smaller metal box within.

Waves of aura that made insects' hearts palpitate merged with Primordial Energy, transforming into an overpowering, irresistible pressure that seemed to warp, tear, and shatter the surrounding area by this force.

In the distance, insects observing with spiritual power were all awestruck by the aura leaking through the metal box, with their Star Marks of Adaptive Evolution involuntarily and simultaneously activating, shining brightly.

Dragon Cypress waited for a while, seeing that everyone had adapted initially, vibrated its spiritual power to notify: "Retreat another two kilometers!"

All insects promptly withdrew.

"Ink Orchid, stay alert."

Dragon Cypress, with a grave expression, cautioned, "If I don't close the box after two seconds, something must have gone wrong with me, close it promptly."

"Got it!"

Ink Orchid solemnly agreed, taking five steps back.

Holding its breath and concentrating, Dragon Cypress gently extended a claw, a point of Metal System Primordial Energy, manipulating the internal mechanisms and clasps of the metal box to twist.

The inner lid opened.

Surrounding natural Primordial Energy automatically drilled inside the box, simultaneously releasing threads of terrifying Primordial Energy.
