Astral Cockroach

Banbu, having been promoted to County Lord, experienced a considerable increase in flight speed and physical endurance, allowing him to travel at full speed for just over twenty days, less than a month.

Late summer, before autumn's arrival, some longan tree species in the longan tree sea were already ripe, and the warriors of Chiwu Mountain began to enter a busy and heavily guarded state.

The same scenario unfolded.

Outside the tree sea, at the entrance to the trestle road, the Narrow Butterfly tribe warrior named "Yingxia" intercepted Banbu.

However, this time she didn't make Banbu wait, but directly led him through the longan tree sea.

Entering the bamboo sea, Banbu traveled on his own, arriving at Chiwu Mountain.

......

Upon receiving the news, County Lord Leizhu hurried to the trading square to greet him, leading Banbu up the mountain.

After exchanging greetings, according to the usual practice, some food was laid out for entertainment.

Butterfly King Haitang first inquired about the recent situation of Guanli, then changed the subject and asked, "County Lord Banbu, you should know that magnolia is a late-maturing tree species among the southern trees, and it is still more than a hundred days away from its maturity period, why did you come so early this time?"

Chiwu Ghost King asked uncertainly, "County Lord Banbu, you're not planning to enter the Dragon Bamboo Continent, are you?"

"That's exactly what I'm planning," Banbu said, "I'm preparing to wander around the northern region of the Dragon Bamboo Continent."

Chiwu Ghost King's antennae trembled, and he asked, "Looking for plant seeds?"

Banbu said, "Exploring the road, and maybe finding some along the way."

"Exploring the road?" Butterfly King Haitang asked in confusion.

Banbu explained, "The vast tree sea makes tree seeds too difficult to find, and even if you find them, the returns are slow.

I plan to let the bamboo rat warriors of Lizhu Peak enter the northern wilderness of the Dragon Bamboo Continent to see if there are any overlooked raw ore veins."

Bamboo rat warriors are naturally good at finding and mining, which Chiwu Ghost King and Butterfly King Haitang knew.

Chiwu Ghost King directly asked, "How can they survive in an environment without Origin Power?"

Chiwu Ghost King's mind turned quickly, and he immediately thought of a possibility, asking, "Are you planning to find a tribe in the northern part of the Western Regions to cooperate with?

That's perfect, our Ghost Katydid tribe's close relatives, the Grass Katydid tribe, live in the grasslands in the northern part of the Eastern Region, and the territory of the Grass Katydid Kingdom also borders the Rainbow Illusionary Barrier.

I can help you with the introduction."

"There's no need for so much trouble," Banbu paused, and said, "Chiwu Ghost King, don't I have the ability to survive in an environment without Origin Power?"

Butterfly King Haitang immediately asked, "Promotion to County Lord, ability enhanced, can you share Origin Power with other warriors?"

Banbu shook his antennae and slowly said, "This is a talent ability.

After awakening, it happened to coincide with the gestation of the Divine Seed bestowed by the Giant Dragon Bamboo, and then…"

Before he could finish speaking, the second half of his words were easy to guess, and Butterfly King Haitang and County Lord Leizhu both jumped up:

"The Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit comes with that incredible strengthening effect?"

"Wouldn't eating it also grant a certain ability to survive in an environment without Origin Power?"

Chiwu Ghost King was much calmer, very dissatisfied with County Lord Leizhu's reaction, tapping the food plate with his toes, making a clanging sound, and reprimanding, "Leizhu, you're not young, you're almost promoted to Ghost King, but you haven't improved at all, still so impatient, how will you be able to take on the responsibility of Mountain Lord in the future?"

"Yes…" County Lord Leizhu said dejectedly, and lay down again.

Butterfly King Haitang directly ignored Chiwu Ghost King's majesty, flapped his wings and ascended into the air, hurriedly saying, "I'm going to Lizhu Peak to see it with my own eyes!"

"Haitang, wait!" Chiwu Ghost King said in a low voice, "You wait for County Lord Banbu to finish speaking…"

Not only Banbu, but Chiwu Ghost King didn't even have time to finish speaking, and Butterfly King Haitang had already turned into a purple light and shadow and disappeared into the sky.

Chiwu Ghost King said awkwardly, "County Lord Banbu, you should be familiar with Butterfly King Haitang's temperament, he's always been so impatient."

"I know, I know," Banbu said, "Butterfly King Haitang should also be thinking about visiting that little fellow Guanli on the way."

County Lord Leizhu agreed, "That little fellow Guanli is very smart and sensible, I've even thought about going to see him."

"Mm," Chiwu Ghost King simply agreed, and asked, "County Lord Banbu, please tell me more about the Dragon Bamboo Fruit."

The Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit had been growing for two years, and the fruit had reached the size of an apricot, with about one-third of the fruit peel covered by the derived white Origin Power veins.

Banbu had been guarding it, and Baba often scanned and tested it, continuously observing and recording data.

As the fruit grew, some previously uncertain data could slowly be initially determined.

Banbu knew what Chiwu Ghost King was most concerned about, and directly said, "Preliminary estimates, using one portion of the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit for strengthening, the obtained ability generates about 100 to 150 raw ore stones per day, which can barely satisfy the Mountain Lord-level warrior to move freely in an environment without Origin Power."

Chiwu Ghost King asked, "Approximately how many bamboo fruits are needed for one portion?"

Banbu said, "Based on the aura, I guess it's about 60 to 70.

I plan to synchronize with the Holy Bamboo Fruit and also use 64 as one portion."

"That's 18 portions! That's quite a lot!" Chiwu Ghost King couldn't help but exclaim, "Bamboo is a tree that forms a forest, and the corresponding yield is higher than any other 'divine' God-bestowed seed!"

Rarity increases value.

High yield is not necessarily a good thing.

Chiwu Ghost King seemed to be praising, but in fact, he was setting the stage for the upcoming trade negotiations.

"Yes, the yield is indeed gratifying," Banbu agreed, not wanting to be outdone, and then said with distress, "My original plan was to invest 500,000 raw ore stones for each portion of the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit.

As a result, the Giant Dragon Bamboo God-bestowed Seed inherited my most powerful talent ability, directly equivalent to becoming a double strengthening effect."

"The more powerful the ability, the greater the consumption, this is the law set by the Natural True God.

Currently, it is estimated that each portion of the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit requires an investment of 1 million raw ore stones.

The Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit not only has a high yield, but now the quality has also doubled, it's really killing the insect."

Chiwu Ghost King had heard that the location of Lizhu Peak was almost the most barren area of Origin Power on the continent, and he was not surprised by this, and said bluntly, "The biggest drawback of the frontier is that the investment in operating life plant is greater, it's normal, it's all like this, there's not much left after deducting the costs."

"…" Banbu stopped talking.

Chiwu Ghost King asked, "County Lord Banbu, does Lizhu Peak have enough raw ore reserves?"

Banbu said gratefully, "Thank you for your concern, Ghost King, the raw ore is temporarily enough, barely enough."

Enough?

A small mountain peak that has just risen for less than 50 years relies on selling money from a Holy Bamboo God-bestowed Seed, where did so many raw ore stones come from?

The wealth of the entire Chi Lian tribe combined is not enough, right?

Chiwu Ghost King immediately understood that the Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit must have been sold, either to Changsheng County in the north or to the Black and White Flower Cockroach tribe in the south.

Banbu said, "Chiwu Ghost King, our previous agreement may need to be slightly adjusted."

"It does need to be adjusted," Chiwu Ghost King asked, "County Lord Banbu, what are your suggestions?"

Banbu said, "The Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit has a double strengthening effect, the value is doubled, one portion is worth two portions.

The ability to generate Origin Power is enough to exchange for Ghost Mist Lotus and Bixie Longan, right?

The strength enhancement is enough to exchange for Snake Scale Fruit and Tianmu Magnolia, right?"

"Putting it all together, the numbers are just right, two portions of Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit exchange for one portion each of Ghost Mist Lotus, Bixie Longan, Snake Scale Fruit, and Tianmu Magnolia."

Chiwu Ghost King did not immediately respond.

County Lord Leizhu did not dare to interrupt.

A Mountain Lord-level warrior gaining the ability to walk freely in an environment without Origin Power is indeed worth the Ghost Mist Lotus and Bixie Longan, and is even more valuable.

Chiwu Mountain is next to the Rainbow Illusionary Barrier, which makes it even more valuable for Chiwu Mountain.

Snake Scale Fruit strengthens the carapace, and Tianmu Magnolia strengthens the soul perception.

In terms of usage value, it is actually much lower than the strengthening power of Giant Dragon Bamboo.

The exchange proposed by Banbu, in terms of value, Chiwu Mountain definitely takes a considerable advantage, it's just the numbers…

Chiwu Ghost King said, "County Lord Banbu, you are very clear that two portions of Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit are simply not enough for our Chiwu Mountain's needs."

County Lord Leizhu said, "In Chiwu Mountain, there are still 6 warriors who need to be promoted to Cockroach King like me, 3 of whom will be in charge of the tree sea, and they can only succeed, not fail.

The more Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit, the better."

Banbu said, "That's okay, the ratio remains the same, we can exchange a few more portions, it doesn't matter if we miss the mature season, the first batch of Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit can be pre-paid to you."

Chiwu Ghost King did not respond, but asked, "County Lord Banbu, may I ask presumptuously, how many portions of Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit have you sold?"

Banbu said truthfully, "2 portions."

Chiwu Ghost King said, "Then there are 16 portions left?

We want all of them in Chiwu Mountain!

Mountain Lord Banbu, you just got promoted to a first-age County Lord, you're not in a hurry to use them, are you?"

"Uh…" Banbu said, "Chiwu Ghost King, 16 portions, I'm afraid you can't handle it, right?"

Chiwu Ghost King said, "We in Chiwu Mountain have even better things that we can take out and exchange with you."

The fish is hooked!

Chiwu Mountain has 8 "divine" God-bestowed seeds, but they are only willing to tell Banbu about 7.

Now, they are finally willing to take out the best one!
