Astral Cockroach

"Baba, come quickly and see, is there a problem with the Origin Force veins produced by the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit?"

Spot flew at low altitude, holding Baba, close to a bamboo fruit.

"Don't worry, I'm watching," Baba said, very puzzled, "Alright, data collection is complete, let's go down."

Spot quickly landed.

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit was also curious about what type of enhancement effect was attached to the bamboo fruit it condensed.

But Baba began to scan the bamboo pole of the Giant Dragon Bamboo God's Gift Seed, and after a while, exclaimed: "Spot, look quickly, the bamboo base of the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit!"

"What's wrong?" Spot's mental power scanned underground, carefully checking, and soon discovered the abnormality.

On the bamboo base of the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit, 150 white Origin Force veins had appeared at some point, 30 veins forming a group, and 5 groups forming a small, inconspicuous bamboo-shaped leaf pattern. The 151st vein was still developing.

Compared to the supernatural vein of its second heart, there were some similarities!

Baba said: "Spot, this is the supernatural ability of the Primordial Heart!"

Spot ignored Baba's shouting and asked the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit: "Giant Dragon, when did the white veins on your bamboo base appear?"

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit said: "White Origin Force veins? They've always been there. They used to be small white dots. When you were promoted to County Lord, the Rat King and the others gave me a lot of Origin Stones. After absorbing the Origin Force, these Origin Force veins grew along with it."

"It also needs Origin Force to grow…" Hearing this, Spot's heart immediately sank.

No wonder the Giant Dragon Bamboo God's Gift Seed needs so much Origin Force, who can afford to raise it?!

The Giant Dragon Bamboo Tree Spirit asked: "Spot, what is the Primordial Heart? Is this white Origin Force vein a talent inherited from you?"

"Well… it can be considered one of my talents…" Spot asked: "Giant Dragon, can your Origin Force vein automatically generate Origin Force?"

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit hesitated: "It seems, it can…"

Baba immediately affirmed: "It can, but the speed is slow. The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit is starting from scratch. What it has are Origin Force veins, not supernatural veins. The current efficiency is still very low, producing only about 20 Origin Stones of Origin Force per day, which is too weak, so it hasn't even noticed it itself."

Baba analyzed: "Spot, you fused with the Primordial Heart, obtaining its ability, which is equivalent to it becoming your talent. When you nurture your Life Seed, the Life Sac will replicate some of your Origin Force genes and graft them into the Origin Force plant genes…"

"The Primordial Heart carries the ability of a 'God', other ordinary plant seeds cannot withstand it… probably only the Giant Dragon Bamboo God's Gift Seed, this kind of 'Divine Grade' God-given seed can do it!"

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit pressed: "Baba, what is the Primordial Heart?"

Spot was very reluctant to explain this question, it was too complicated, and he couldn't explain it clearly himself, so he said to Baba: "Baba, the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit is asking you, what is the Primordial Heart?"

Baba calculated slightly, and explained in the simplest and clearest language: "The Primordial Heart is the life core of a certain 'God'-level life form, carrying the ability of a 'God'. For some reason, this 'God'-level life form fell, and the Primordial Heart fell into Spot's hands, and was… melted by a mouthful of his fire, and then eaten, fused…"

Baba also had a little trouble explaining it.

However, the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit quickly understood, and said: "Spot used some means to fuse the Primordial Heart, obtained the ability of a 'God', and made it his own talent. And I, because I was nurtured and born by Spot, inherited this ability."

Baba couldn't communicate with the Giant Dragon Tree Spirit.

"…" Spot's teeth hurt, this sounded so awkward.

The fact was that, in the process of nurturing the Life Sac, insect warriors did indeed pass on some of their own Origin Force genes to the Life Seed.

Baba continued to analyze: "Now the Giant Dragon God's Gift Seed itself has only just derived 150 Origin Force veins, and its ability is still very weak. Then, the enhancement effect attached to the bamboo fruit it condenses must also be very weak."

"If Origin Stones are invested, allowing the Giant Dragon God's Gift Seed to derive all the 600 Origin Force veins of the first tree-shaped pattern, forming the complete ability to transform Origin Force, the efficiency will qualitatively improve, and correspondingly, the enhancement effect attached to the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit will also be improved."

"The Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit has a fruit period of 6 years, you better help it derive the 600 Origin Force veins within 5 years. This way, the first batch of bamboo fruit produced can have a complete enhancement effect."

That should be the case.

The key is, where to get so many Origin Stones?!

Spot didn't speak.

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit asked: "Spot, did you use the Origin Force you absorbed last time to enhance the ability of the Primordial Heart?"

"You're so smart," Spot said casually.

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit understood that Spot was troubled by the lack of Origin Stones, and comforted: "Spot, I'm starting from scratch, and these are Origin Force veins, so they can't be compared to your supernatural veins, and the demand for Origin Stones is relatively small."

Spot asked: "Giant Dragon, how many Origin Stones does it take to derive one Origin Force vein?"

The Giant Dragon Tree Spirit thought for a while and said: "About 10,000 Origin Stones."

"That's indeed not much," Spot said weakly.

10,000 for one, that's still several million!

Within 30 meters of the bamboo forest formed by the Giant Dragon Bamboo God's Gift Seed, the natural Origin Force is always in a vacuum state. Natural Origin Force simply cannot supply its growth, so the path of absorbing natural Origin Force is definitely not feasible, and it can only be supplemented by Origin Stones.

Baba also knew that Spot had exhausted his savings in the two years since he was promoted to County Lord, and the 1.5 million Origin Stones he had recently obtained were all used up in the first moment, and now he couldn't take out a single Origin Stone.

Baba suggested: "Spot, the Fire Oil Tea Tree Spirit is still guarding over ten thousand Origin Stones, go get them and let's try them on the Giant Dragon Bamboo Tree Spirit."

"This…"

The Fire Oil Tea Tree Spirit had scraped together nearly 100,000 Origin Stones over the past few decades, and had always placed them under the tree. But, with its miserly character, taking its Origin Stones was tantamount to taking its life.

Spot said seriously: "Baba, the Fire Oil Tea Tree Spirit worked so hard to save up so few Origin Stones, how can you bear to do that?"

The newest novels are at 6^9^book^net!

Baba disdainfully said: "If you don't want to try, then forget it, is there anything else? Quickly send me back to the hydroelectric station, it's going to rain."

The sky was gloomy, and it was indeed going to rain soon.

There was more overcast and rainy weather in winter. The rain was light, but it lasted for a long time. If it rained for several days in a row, it could accumulate and generate a lot of electricity.

"There's still something else," Spot asked: "Baba, analyze it again now, how many Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruits are in a portion?"

Baba said: "64 in a portion, to maximize a 0.35 level increase in strength."

"Understood," Spot picked up Baba and said: "I'll send you back."

…

The Giant Dragon Bamboo produced 1168 bamboo fruits, 64 in a portion, which could be divided into 18 portions, with 16 left over.

For the first batch of production, 4 portions had to be taken out to exchange with Crimson Crow Mountain for Ghost Mist Lotus, Emerald Blood Longan, Snake Scale Fruit, and Tianmu Magnolia respectively.

The 16 single fruits were given to Iron Saber Mountain Lord to help it advance to County Lord.

There were 14 full portions left.

Spot decided to slightly change the way he handled the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit.

He could sell two portions privately and exchange them for Origin Stones for emergency use.

Sell to Crimson Crow Mountain? Crimson Crow Mountain was rich, but no one was a fool. Origin Stones would not be spent randomly. The last 100 million Origin Stones was also a major decision made after careful consideration for the development of the tribe.

Big things would only be spent in large quantities. It could be seen from the several transactions with the Lotus Mist Ghost King that Crimson Crow Mountain held Origin Stones very tightly, and it was difficult to get more than 1 million Origin Stones from Crimson Crow Mountain!

Selling to Crimson Crow Mountain would definitely not get a big advantage.

Right under his nose, there was still a rich man—Autumn Maple County Lord.

They also had mines, and they were mining them unrestrainedly, spending lavishly, wanting to use Origin Stones to accumulate and quickly grow the tribe.

Many mature large tribes looked down on this approach. Now they were spending everywhere, looking infinitely beautiful, but in the future, when the Origin Stone mines were exhausted, the race would immediately fall into poverty, decline, and wither.

Currently, the Black and White Flower Cockroach tribe had enough population and territory. They urgently needed a second Cockroach King to sit in charge.

Autumn Maple County Lord had always been the best choice.

One portion of Dragon Bamboo Fruit could increase Autumn Maple County Lord's chances of advancing to Cockroach King.
