Ant Lord in the Star Realm

"Finally found it!"

"..."

Dragon Cypress opened it to inspect.

An oval-shaped seed, brown-black in color, with subtle white original energy patterns on its surface, emitted a faint origin force fluctuation.

No doubt, it was a Divine-Given Seed.

Clearly, a life system primordial energy mechanism.

Dragon Cypress activated the super brain, searching for inherited memory.

Just by the seed alone, it couldn’t recognize which plant it was.

"Ink Orchid, is this a seed of a star space mutated plant?"

"No! I found it on Flying Wing Star. The native species of the home planet had undergone a slight mutation."

"What plant is it?"

"Haha. The knowledgeable Great Leader Dragon Cypress doesn’t recognize it?"

"I don’t recognize it."

"That’s right if you don’t recognize it!"

Ink Orchid urged: "Quick! Arrange a place to plant it. Once the sapling sprouts, you might recognize it."

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Dragon Cypress: "I’m not curious at all. I just need to know its specific information to decide where to plant it, how to plant it, and when to sow."

"Tropical plant. Just plant anywhere."

Ink Orchid impatiently waved its claw to urge: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

...

Ink Orchid had spent hundreds of years tirelessly searching, finally finding such a Divine-Given Seed.

It was the first Divine-Given Seed harvested upon entering the universe starry sky.

I had significant commemorative value.

Gathered all the insects, held a discussion, also consulted with Dragon Cypress’s Serviceberry Divine-Given Seed.

The Serviceberry Divine-Given Seed, relatively close to Azure, condensed its tree heart and relocated to a different position.

The new Divine-Given Seed was sown right next to Azure, receiving the maximum nourishment from Azure’s water system energy field, thus allowing faster growth.

After some preparation,

the seed was buried in the soil.

Three days later,

the seed sprouted.

Half a month later,

there was a beginning.

— Hammerfruit Vine.

Inherited memory indeed had a record.

Yet, it was a plant species that had never been seen before.

It should only exist in Thousand Trees or Thousand Hills Continent.

Considered to be a relatively good type of wood vine species, valuable for its primordial energy attribute, being purely of the life system, with a relatively high single price.

An above-average quality Divine-Given Seed.

The quantity of ordinary wild Divine-Given Seeds owned by Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid reached a total of 40.

A grand banquet was held to celebrate.

Eating, drinking, and chatting, everyone was enjoying themselves.

Ink Orchid suddenly said: "Dragon Cypress, Green Heart, having found this Divine-Given Seed, I will no longer venture out searching."

Dragon Cypress: "???"

Green Heart: "Ink Orchid, what’s wrong? How about I accompany you in running around?"

"That’s not the reason..."

Ink Orchid shook its tentacle and spoke seriously for a rare moment: "Three reasons. First, endlessly yielding no results is too exhausting; second, even in the Star Marks Realm, it still takes two months each year, wasting precious life; third..."

Ink Orchid sighed lightly: "During my search for Divine-Given Seeds, I got to know many insects. Each one is more destitute than the last. In the Venus Star System here, resources are limited, opportunities are scarce. We are already wealthy enough, at least now very wealthy, we should be content as insects, and leave some room in what we do, I rather not compete with them."

"..."

"Ink Orchid is the kindest."

"Ink Orchid speaks with reason."

"Then, Second King will stay in the territory in the future and train abilities with us."

Even the Bicolor Mulberry, who always opposed Ink Orchid, rarely praised.

"My mantises have finally understood things. I’m quite relieved."

"..."

Ink Orchid didn’t want to argue.

Actually, Ink Orchid kept another reason to itself.

Everyone knew it in their hearts.

During the time on the home planet, to condense the divine pattern, Ink Orchid might need one, two, or three years, while Dragon Cypress needed over ten years.

After entering the star space, stagnating at the Star Marks Realm age period 9, and receiving enough primordial energy enhancement and growth, it only took Dragon Cypress fifty to sixty years to condense a single mark or complete a combination.

Meanwhile, Ink Orchid required at least thirty years, and some abilities even needed forty to fifty years.

The talent gap between them was no longer as insurmountable as it was during the home planet days.

Dragon Cypress focused diligently, steadily improving.

Ink Orchid ran here and there, stopping intermittently, the number of traces began lagging.

Ink Orchid would not allow itself to be surpassed by ants.

...

The weather turned cool, Azure commanded a large group of specialized Blue Soldiers, rotating in formation, activated the hydrology shield, guarding the Hammerfruit Vine Divine-Given Seed.

A year later, it bloomed for the first time, left a single fruit, verifying the primordial energy attribute.

Confirmed to be comprehensive life force enhancement.

Resting the flowers and fruits to nurture the tree.

Under the universe law environment, the growth rate of wild Divine-Given Seeds was considerably slower compared to the home planet.

After a full century, it finally evolved to Mid-Level.

Another three hundred years later, it evolved to High-Level.

Another five hundred years later, evolved to Mountain Lord Level.

After eight hundred years, evolved to Lord-Level.

[Time: 78 Period - 124 Origin - 804 Year - January]

Dragon Cypress, Ink Orchid, and the group had settled on Twisted Blue Star for nearly five thousand years.

Suddenly one day, Fish Vine came running over.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King, Kansui and Chairman Giant Taro asked me to inform you that the primordial gemstone has arrived."
