Natural God's Gift
#158 - Eight-Direction Calming Method
The Flame Spider Kingdom's territory is mainly composed of mountains, rivers, and forests. The continuous spring rain has not stopped. As the breeze rises, it disperses the originally fine spring rain, forming a hazy morning mist that surrounds the lush green forest like silky satin.
On the winding mountain road, the distance between the spiders gradually increases due to their different leg strengths.

There are also small groups of three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten spiders, like Siyue and the others. They walk and stop, occasionally climbing onto nearby flowering trees to see if there are any Primordial Force fluctuations.
Although the spiders want to find God-given Seeds, they are not very anxious or eager about it. The insect-free zone in the kingdom is so large that even if they searched for ten lifetimes, they would not be able to finish searching.
Sometimes, a group of small spiders may not be able to find a single God-given Seed in a year. Coming out at this time of year is more of a recreational activity.
The rain in the sky seems to be getting heavier, and although the spiders are holding lotus leaves over their heads, they don't have a habit of getting drenched in the rain.
Zexie pointed to the relatively dry base of a large tree: "Shall we go and take shelter from the rain?"
The other spiders had no objections and moved their eight legs to take shelter from the rain.
"I don't know how long this rain will last," Ku Mai walked to the tree, scraping the mud off his feet with weeds.
If it rains for a long time, not only will it be difficult to find God-given Seeds, but even walking will be more troublesome.
"Who knows? Maybe it will rain from spring to summer." This kind of situation has happened before. They heard from Mountain Lord Huzhang that there were times when it rained continuously for ten years.
"It's not up to us to decide. Don't think too much about it."
Jixue spread a large spider silk cloth on the ground and untied the spider silk bag on his back, taking out a few strips of sesame-sprinkled jerky: "My friend in the White-Legged Flame Spider tribe created a new way of eating it!
After roasting the jerky, they sprinkle it with various spices and call it Crispy Pork Belly, which is very delicious. I'll let everyone try it."
Huichun also took out some dried fruit: "The dried fruit I dried last winter tastes good too."
Shiwei took out a few skewers of insects.
Baizhi also took out a bottle of honey that she usually treasured.
Siyue lifted the Poseidon's Horn on his back. The Poseidon's Horn was stuffed full of food. The twenty- or thirty-centimeter Poseidon's Horn was about the same size as his main trunk. The Poseidon's Horn had many uses. When it was not in use, it could also be used directly as a portable warehouse. He took out some dried oysters that he couldn't finish eating in winter...
The rain was still drizzling in the sky. Everyone hid under the shade of the tree, and successively took out snacks that they usually ate to put together a feast. Everyone ate and drank, completely treating the journey to find God-given Seeds as a picnic.
Baizhi wiped his claws with a leaf, picked up a piece of crispy pork belly cut from Jixue, and dipped it in honey, eating it with relish.
The other spiders followed suit. Spiders are not so clean. Sometimes they even eat dirt, so they don't have to be so particular about other things.
Siyue picked up a piece of crispy pork belly and looked at it: "Jixue, this meat is very oily."
"Yes, it's very filling. Eating one piece in the forest can last for three to five days."
Siyue looked at the high-bulging spider silk bag on Jixue's carapace. It seemed like he had brought a lot. Was he planning to fight a protracted war?
He put the slice of meat in his mouth: "Jixue, how long do you plan to search for?
Jixue: "There's nothing to do in spring. I plan to stay in the jungle for two months."
"We also plan to stay in the jungle for two or three months."
Baizhi was eating something when she heard Jixue say this and enthusiastically invited: "Let's be together then."
"That won't work," Jixue said seriously: "This is your first time searching for God-given Seeds in the jungle. You don't know some of the rules here."
"It's best to act alone when searching for God-given Seeds here. If you act collectively, it's easy to have disputes after finding the God-given Seeds."
"Disputes?"
Jixue said somewhat solemnly: "When we search for God-given Seeds, we make a mark with a spider silk line on a mountain forest that we want to search, dividing the territory, and then search within the territory. This can prevent the spiders from wasting energy searching multiple times.
At the same time, because God-given Seeds are too precious, if the territory is not clearly divided and everyone finds it together, it's hard to say who discovered it, and it's easy to create conflicts."
"Oh," Siyue roughly understood: "Mountain Lord Huzhang doesn't seem to have taught us this."
"Mountain Lord Huzhang can't possibly teach you everything. These are the rules and experiences that the small warriors have accumulated over the years. Other spiders taught them to me, and I'll tell you the rules too."
Baizhi couldn't even bother eating and quickly raised her claws to ask: "Jixue, can I still be with Siyue?
Jixue: "It's best not to, unless you discuss how to distribute the God-given Seeds. Moreover, the kingdom is so big, there's no need to gather together to search."
"Okay!" Baizhi was disappointed for a moment, and then continued to eat and drink.
Siyue asked curiously: "Have any spiders found God-given Seeds in the jungle in recent years?
"Yes," Huichun replied in a low mental voice: "I heard last year that a high-level Flame Spider obtained a Sow Thistle God-given Seed. Because it was an herb, it directly incorporated it into its life sac at the end of last year to nurture it into a life seed."
Shiwei and the others were puzzled: "How come we don't know? We haven't heard of it!"
Huichun: "The Sow Thistle God-given Seed matured in late autumn last year. The spider that obtained it was from Mountain Lord Cang'er's lineage. We're not very familiar with them. Hei Nuomi only heard a little about it at the end of the year when he was working in Mountain Lord Cang'er's territory."
Everyone understood when he said that.
After hearing that a spider had really obtained a God-given Seed, everyone finished eating and drinking and actively embarked on the journey to find God-given Seeds.
A group of spiders spent two or three days rushing to the legendary place under the Wangchunhua tree. They had originally heard that there were Beast Race warriors, but they didn't see its figure, which disappointed the spiders who had never seen a Beast Race warrior for a while.
Leaving the range of the Wangchunhua tree, outside is the insect-free zone. After everyone bid farewell to each other, they dispersed in all directions,
Each went to find mountain forests with a chance of appearing God-given Seeds.
Baizhi and Siyue did not separate. The two spiders continued to move forward.
On both sides of the mountain road, a spider silk line was pulled up every distance, indicating that this mountain was owned by someone.
Baizhi looked around and saw that they were all territories with insects: "Siyue, it seems we're a little late."
Siyue: "There's no way. Our feet are only so big. How can we outrun those high-level warriors?
But don't worry, Danggui set off to find God-given Seeds a long time ago. Compared to that, we're much faster than them."
"Yes," Baizhi reacted: "Where did Danggui go? Why didn't we see its insect shadow?"
"Danggui ran to the insect-free zone to find God-given Seeds a long time ago. We agreed to meet on the mountain road in five days."
"Five days? How many days have passed now?"
"Two days!"
Bai Zhi was stunned: "Then we still have to walk for three days?"
Si Ye: "We can first find a territory to search for two days, and then just stand on the mountain road and wait on the fifth day."
Bai Zhi was a little worried: "There are so many mountain roads, will it be able to find us?"
"Don't worry, I've already prepared."
Si Ye took out a bundle of thin cloth strips woven from spider silk. At the top of the cloth strip was a four-leaf clover symbol. It pulled out a cloth strip and tied it to a tree branch beside the mountain road.
Looking at the cloth strip fluttering in the wind, Si Ye said with satisfaction: "I'll tie a small cloth strip every certain distance.
It will follow the cloth strips to find us."
Bai Zhi asked: "Then are we going to search for God-given Seeds separately?
Si Ye said: "I don't mind. As Ji Xue said, the insect-free zone is so big. Separating will increase the probability of finding God-given Seeds, but we don't have to separate too far. We can find adjacent territories and gather once a week."
"That's fine too," Bai Zhi thought Si Ye's suggestion was very good. It said excitedly: "Let's go find unclaimed territories."
There are many mountain paths in the insect-free zone, and they are very messy, some are even non-existent.
The two spiders walked for more than a day on the messy mountain roads, twisting and turning. It could be seen that the spider silk lines pulled up on both sides of the road had obviously decreased a lot. Sometimes, they couldn't see a single spider silk line even ten kilometers apart. All they could see were various animals that had awakened from hibernation to hunt.
Bounding rabbits could be seen everywhere in the bushes, squirrels stood on the trees curiously looking at them, and there were also venomous snakes coiled around the roots of plants, as well as wild boars and other large animals that appeared and disappeared from time to time.
Bai Zhi's mouth watered uncontrollably: "Si Ye, look, there's a rabbit over there, and a honey badger,
The snake looks so tender too!"
Si Ye: "I see it."
"There are so many animals here, much more than in the kingdom's owned territories."
Si Ye said as a matter of course: "Nonsense, in order to prevent animals from harming the life seeds and plants planted in the territory, Lord Qingfeng and the others will regularly clean up the prey in the kingdom. There is no chance for them to reproduce, okay?"
Bai Zhi asked: "Si Ye, where are you planning to look for God-given Seeds? I think this place is pretty good, why don't I just stay here?"
Of course, Si Ye knew why Bai Zhi wanted to stay here, but it didn't stop it. Anyway, searching for God-given Seeds depends on the spider's interest, and there is no loss even if it doesn't find it.
Si Ye said: "Then you can stay here."
It then raised its foreleg and pointed to the two towering mountain peaks not far away: "I think that side is pretty good,
I'll go there to look for God-given Seeds!"
"Okay," Bai Zhi rubbed its feet, it was already a little impatient.
Si Ye reminded: "You have to be careful of those large beasts."
"Got it." Bai Zhi is now an intermediate warrior. Its size is already seventy to eighty centimeters, and it has Origin Power. As long as it doesn't encounter that kind of super-large beast, there will be basically no danger.
Moreover, Origin Power creatures have a sense of intimidation towards non-Origin Power creatures. It can be said that as long as it doesn't seek death,
There will basically be no danger.
"When Danggui comes over, tell it my location."
"Okay," Bai Zhi burst out Origin Power and stabbed a rabbit to death: "Do you want to have lunch before leaving?"
Si Ye: ". โ ยท
Si Ye was too lazy to pay attention to Bai Zhi. It found a stream. The spring stream wasn't very abundant. Compared to the intricate woodland, it was easier to walk along the stream.
It quickly walked to the bottom of the peak. Looking at the two connected mountain peaks with almost the same height, it felt very auspicious, so it gave the two mountain peaks the name Twin Peaks.
After naming them, it immediately began to pull up spider silk lines, mainly on the side near the kingdom. Otherwise, if it had to pull a spider silk line around such a large mountain peak, Si Ye estimated that it would have to pull until it became a dried spider.
The birth of God-given Seeds is completely random. For so long, the Flame Spider Kingdom only knows that when a new variety of plant is born, a law-given Godsend will descend.
As for random God-given Seeds, as long as there is Origin Power, there is a probability of being born. No one can guarantee that they have a trick to find them.
Regarding the search for God-given Seeds, Si Ye itself doesn't have a clear goal, or rather, no one has a clear goal. It can only rely on feeling and luck to find the flower with Origin Power fluctuations among the blooming flowers.
Si Ye is good at this kind of thing that relies on feeling, and its luck is also good, but its mental power is a bit weak. After all, it is still too small. Even with the Sea God Horn assistance, the effect is not very obvious.
However, although they can't master the tricks for the birth of God-given Seeds, after consulting with Mountain Master Huzhang, Mountain Master Huzhang taught it a method to search for God-given Seeds faster in the wild.
This method is called the Eight-Direction God-Fixing Method. It sounds a bit mysterious, but the method is actually very simple.
Divide a mountain peak into eight directions. The north side faces the yin, and there are relatively few plants, so it can basically be ignored.
Similarly, the northeast and northwest sides have less light, and can usually be ignored first.
The main search is east, southeast, south, southwest, and west, five sides, which can save at least half the time.
Of course, if there are large woodlands on the northeast and northwest sides, it is still worth searching. It depends on the spider's choice.
At the same time, in places where tall trees form forests, there is no need to search for low-growing herbaceous plants and shrubs. In places where the soil is barren and trees are sparse, they can basically be ignored. After excluding these factors, there are not many places to search on a mountain peak.
This method is not nonsense. You must know that God-given Seeds need the fertility of the soil and photosynthesis. The north side faces the yin, and there is not much sunlight throughout the day. It is difficult for ordinary plants to grow,
Let alone God-given Seeds?
Even if there are God-given Seeds born by chance, they will soon wither together with the mother plant due to insufficient nutrients. Similarly, in places where tall trees form forests, the sunlight is absorbed by the trees, so how can the low-growing shrubs survive?
In places where the land is barren, how can God-given Seeds flower and bear fruit?
As for what if God-given Seeds are really born in these places and not found? Then it can only be considered their bad luck, bad timing, and bad fate.
After dividing the eight sides, first choose the east, southeast, and south sides. If no God-given Seeds are found, then go to the west and southwest sides.
If they are found, then there is no need to go. The probability of two God-given Seeds being born in the same area at the same time is smaller than the probability of a top-grade God-given Seed being born. There is no need to waste time searching any further.
Of course, situations similar to the rapeseed flower God-given Seeds are another matter.
