Natural God's Gift
#4 - Sowing God's Seeds
“A divine-grade godsend?” The spiders were so shocked that their eight legs stood straight up. In all their long lives, they had only heard of divine-grade godsend from the Spider King of the past, but they had never seen one.
“Really? Is this real?” Torch waved its chelicerae excitedly, impatiently asking to confirm the truth of the matter.
Lord Qingfeng said solemnly, “It’s very possible.”
“Divine-grade?” Ziyun repeated the two words. It had seen the godsend seed fruit of Siyue. It didn't expect that the clover godsend seed, which didn't seem very valuable, would actually give birth to a one-in-a-million divine-grade godsend.
Torch suddenly thought of a very crucial question: “Then Lord Qingfeng, can you tell what the effect of this divine-grade godsend of Siyue is?”
Lord Qingfeng’s pedipalps swayed from side to side: “I’m just saying it’s possibly divine-grade. Whether it’s divine-grade or not is still uncertain.
However, if it really is divine-grade, ordinary clover strengthens wood-type abilities. A divine-grade clover should grant wood-type abilities, or wood-type talent. I think the probability of granting wood-type abilities is higher.”
“Wood-type talent granting, wood-type talent granting…” Torch directly ignored the first half of Qingfeng’s words, happily circling the woodland, as if it had obtained the divine-grade godsend itself.
The insectoid Force warriors of the Force Star Realm generally possess ten types of talents: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, strength, life, and soul.
But not every insectoid warrior has all ten types of talents. Most insectoid warriors only have a single or two types of talents, which they can awaken after reaching the Mountain Lord level.
Once a certain type of talent is awakened, they may be limited to that one type of talent.
After breaking through to the Mountain Lord level and awakening a certain bloodline talent, they will autonomously awaken one or two related abilities every time they break through a small age period.
Generally speaking, insectoid warriors only inherit the talent potential within their bloodline, but there are exceptions.
Among the godsend seeds bestowed by the God of Nature, some godsend seeds produce fruits that can grant insectoid warriors extremely peculiar abilities. These types of godsend seeds are revered as divine-grade godsend seeds, and the fruits they produce are called divine-grade fruits.
Among divine-grade fruits, some can grant insectoid warriors additional talent abilities, that is, increase an insectoid warrior's talent, which allows them to comprehend more abilities in subsequent evolutions.
These types of divine-grade fruits are called talent granting according to their category.
Another type is ability granting, which is to grant an additional ability without evolving.
However, ability granting has some minor drawbacks, which is that ability granting is useless without a related talent.
For example, they, the Watase Flame Spiders, are fixed to awaken earth-type talent after evolving to the Mountain Lord level.
If the clover's divine-grade fruit grants wood-type talent, they can consume the divine-grade fruit and have a chance to increase a talent.
If the clover's divine-grade fruit grants wood-type ability, then it will be useless for their own evolution.
Greenland carefully extended its claw and asked, “Lord Qingfeng, how much is this divine-grade fruit worth?”
“If it grants wood-type ability, one would be worth at least one million origin stones, three million origin stones at most.
If it grants wood-type talent, it would be a bit more expensive, probably two to three million origin stones? After the evolution level is higher, such as reaching the King level, five to six million origin stones are needed. This is still the internal price. If it is sold to other tribes, the value will double or triple. It's not a problem.
After all, insectoids mainly focus on managing territories, and insects with wood-type talents can be much more convenient when managing territories.”
“One million origin stones? Two to three million origin stones?” Torch, who was originally happy, was so frightened when he heard this that he shivered. Its eight spider legs went weak and limp on the ground. So expensive? Even if it, a Mountain Lord-level spider, was tied up and sold, it wouldn't be enough.
Ziyun and Greenland were also shocked into silence for a long time, not daring to make a sound. They originally thought they could buy one from Siyue, but they probably couldn't afford such an expensive thing. They couldn't possibly shamelessly ask for one for free, right?
Lord Qingfeng was quite calm. Anyway, it had awakened wood-type talent, and it could awaken wood-type abilities during evolution. It didn't have a high desire for the uncertain wood-type ability.
“Alright, don’t be so excited.” Lord Qingfeng said calmly, “Let’s wait for Siyue to wake up and plant the godsend seed to see if it’s divine-grade first. And even if it is divine-grade, it will at least have to be at the Mountain Lord level before it can blossom and bear fruit. It takes at least a few decades for divine-grade godsend to blossom and bear fruit, and up to nearly a hundred years. At least fifty to sixty years before there is production. What are you panicking about?”
Hearing what Lord Qingfeng said, the few spiders calmed down from their excitement. Yes, there were still so many years to go, what were they panicking about?
“When will Siyue wake up?” The spiders waited for Siyue to wake up.
“Don’t worry, there’s no danger. The God of Nature is watching over it.”
The few spiders didn’t say anything more. A first-age-period primary warrior could harvest two godsend seeds, one of which was very likely to be divine-grade. This wasn’t just being favored by the God of Nature, this was the God of Nature’s own son, right?
After eating the plum pulp, Siyue felt very full. Sensing that Lord Qingfeng and Mountain Lord Ziyun were still talking there, it went to sleep peacefully.
It didn’t know how long it slept. In a daze, it found that the surroundings had quieted down. When it woke up, it felt like something was binding its body. It had molted many times, so it was very familiar with this.
“Did I evolve again?” It pulled open the old carapace and crawled out. The second-age-period primary warrior had grown from the size of a lychee when it was a first-age-period warrior to the size of a small mango. It had grown from a small flame spider that Torch could accidentally step on to a small flame spider that Torch wouldn’t step on unless it closed its eight spider eyes.
“Siyue, you’re awake?” Torch supported its eight spider legs, its huge spider head lying in front of Siyue, its eight spider eyes extremely close, looking at it intently, wanting to see what was different between a spider favored by the God of Nature and other spiders.
“Go away, go away.” Ziyun drove Torch away. It took out some Force food and placed it in front of Siyue: “Eat some food to replenish your strength.”
"Okay." Clover was indeed starving, so it picked up a piece of primal force food and stuffed it into its mouth.
"Don't rush, eat slowly." Verdant also carried a wild rabbit, slicing the meat into thin pieces for it to eat.
After some tossing and turning, Clover finally had its fill.
"Clover, spit out your God-given Seed for us to see."
Clover was a little puzzled, but it still spat out the clover God-given Seed from its life sac.
The clover God-given Seed was really too small. If you didn't consider the primal force fluctuations, you wouldn't be able to see it clearly even if you looked closely, let alone the unique primal force patterns on it. Only by scanning with mental power could you check it. The entire God-given Seed was densely covered with countless unique primal force patterns. Other God-given Seeds might only have a few of these special patterns, but it had thousands of times more than other God-given Seeds, which also demonstrated its difference from other God-given Seeds.
After Clover spat out the nurtured God-given Seed, it opened the small silk pouch on its back carapace and took out the morning glory God-given Seed inside to nurture in its life sac.
Violet Cloud asked on behalf of Clover, "Lord Azure Maple, where should this God-given Seed be planted?"
Lord Azure Maple pointed to the woodland not far from it and said, "Plant it there. I originally wanted to plant some longan and mango trees there, and I specially cleared an area. Now that piece of territory is just right for Clover to plant the God-given Seed."
Lord Azure Maple stretched a huge spider leg towards Clover, "Clover, come up, I'll take you over there."
"Okay, thank you, Lord Azure Maple." Clover put the clover God-given Seed into the silk pouch, reattached it to its back carapace, and nimbly climbed onto Lord Azure Maple's back.
The distance of over a thousand meters was unreachable for Clover, but for Lord Azure Maple and the others, it was only a matter of minutes.
"Here, perhaps." Lord Azure Maple chose a sunny piece of land. The trees within twenty meters around it had already been felled, making it suitable for planting the God-given Seed.
"How to plant it?" Clover held the silk pouch, feeling somewhat puzzled. It didn't know if it was because it was too small or because its inherited memories were incomplete. Its inherited memories only said to plant the life seed, and that it could harvest primal force food when the fruit matured, but it didn't teach how to plant it. Was it just going to throw the seed on the ground like this?
Torch stopped Clover, "Wait, let Violet Cloud till the soil for you first."
"Till the soil?" Clover didn't understand.
"Hehe, Little Clover, you don't understand, do you?"
Torch said triumphantly, "The Zerg warriors all think that we Flame Spider Merchants don't engage in production, and only make money by buying and selling primal stones, but little do they know that although we don't grow primal force plants ourselves, we also have some sources of income.
Violet Cloud comprehended an earth-type ability called 'Fertile' at the Mountain Lord level. It can turn barren land into fertile land, making it more suitable for life seeds to be planted, take root, and grow.
Violet Cloud can also use this ability to create a special soil called 'Rich Soil'. When most Zerg warriors manage their territories, the number of flowers and fruits is directly related to the fertility of the land. Rich Soil can not only increase the growth rate of Zerg life seeds, but also increase the fruit yield of life seeds. Based on many years of experience, if there is enough Rich Soil, it can increase the fruit yield of life seeds by about one-fifth.
So Zerg warriors welcome our caravan's arrival, which is why our caravan is doing so well. Outside, we can sell one cubic meter of Rich Soil for fifty primal stones!"
"Violet Cloud is amazing." Clover cheered. Fifty primal stones, it had never seen so many in its life.
"Everyone, step back a little." Violet Cloud waved its chelicerae, telling everyone to retreat a few meters, leaving only a small area of three or four meters in the center.
Violet Cloud raised a pair of chelicerae high, poured in primal energy, and then slammed the ground fiercely. On the land in front of it, two powerful forces separated to each side in a semicircle, turning over the surface of the soil, revealing the dark soil and gravel under the grassland, but this was not the end.
Within a radius of three or four meters around, the soil and gravel rolled constantly like boiling water. Stones turned into powder as they collided with each other. At this time, Torch chopped down several decayed giant tree trunks and threw them into the soil. Before long, the tree trunks were constantly rolled and rubbed by the soil containing powerful forces, ground into powder and integrated into it. Verdant used a bamboo tube to pour a bag of water into it, making the soil roll more finely.
"Primal stones…" Violet Cloud gave an order, and Torch took out primal stones one by one and threw them into the soil, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Ah? We need primal stones?" Clover was a little stunned. So many primal stones, when would it ever be able to pay them back?
Torch explained, "Using primal stones is to make the soil truly Rich Soil, which is more suitable for primal force plants to take root and absorb primal force."
Torch only threw in forty or fifty primal stones. The Rich Soil they sold outside seemed to earn fifty primal stones per cubic meter, but in fact, each cubic meter required nearly ten primal stones, and adding the consumption of primal force, one cubic meter only earned twenty or thirty primal stones.
After a long time, until the soil and stones within Violet Cloud's range had turned into loose powder, as if oil could be squeezed out with a casual claw, Violet Cloud stopped using its ability.
Violet Cloud took a few steps back, "Okay, you can plant the God-given Seed now."
Clover picked up the God-given Seed between its claws and looked at the spiders, "Just put it down like this?"
Lord Azure Maple instructed, "Yes, put it down and cover it with soil."
Clover obediently planted the clover God-given Seed in the very center of the Rich Soil, then covered it with soil, and looked back at Lord Azure Maple and the others expectantly, "Is it done?"
Lord Azure Maple picked up a bamboo tube and watered the God-given Seed a little, then said, "It's done, just wait for it to sprout."
"Oh." Clover curled up its eight legs, and its eight eyes stared unblinkingly at the middle of the Rich Soil. Although the seed had only just been planted, it was already imagining what the fruit would look like after the seed sprouted and grew. The God-given primal force food should be very sweet, right?
Its thoughts drifted into the distance…
