Chapter 1191 - 748: Bicolor Mulberry's Path of Evolution: Umbrella Bird

White Ivy was impatient, eager to rush to meet with Red Peach to survey the market and plan interstellar merchant routes.

...

[Time: 78th Era-139th Origin-74th Year]

Potato Leaf Star, North District 4201

Lakeside.

Teleporting through Dragon Cypress space, silently appearing under the Azure Divine Seed Tree by the lake, looking up to check.

Beneath the trumpet-shaped broad leaves, among the leaf veins, hung variously sized fruits sparsely.

As it was early autumn,

some fruits began changing from green to azure in color.

A sweep with spiritual power,

in the territory, all Origin Force Plants had recovered from the weakness of relocation, flowering and fruiting, the fruits had entered the mature harvest stage.

"Dragon Cypress..."

Azure was at a loss for two seconds before reacting.

"Dragon Cypress, you've returned."

"I've returned to replenish the ant colony and also to evolve to the 7th Age Period of the Half Star Realm."

"How is it over at the Azure Star System?"

"Not very ideal. Six planets, not a drop of water can be found, completely reliant on Origin Force Water Making, progress is not promising..."

"Great Leader Dragon Cypress!"

Green Heart conducting an aerial reconnaissance spotted Dragon Cypress's presence descending swiftly to the lakeside.

Rainbow Mulberry reacted immediately, pulsing spiritual power to call out:

"Dragon Cypress is back!"

"Great Leader Dragon Cypress is back!"

"The ants are back."

Bicolor Mulberry also joined in shouting.

The various insects stationed at Xianglan Mountain rushed to the lakeside upon hearing the news.

Dragon Cypress recounted in detail the situation over at the Azure Star System.

Round Cypress, Fragrant Cypress, and Black Sophora brought over the accounting stone slabs, which detailed the transaction status of the Tree Blossom Shop during the departure, as well as the territory's yields.

White Ivy had been assisting in transporting materials and Insect Clan Warriors to the Azure Star System, with no transactions or revenues to speak of at the Tree Blossom Shop.

Dragon Cypress glanced over them briefly before setting them aside.

After a simple meal to recover,

Dragon Cypress led the insects on a patrol of the territory, examining the state of all Origin Force Plants in detail.

During this departure, many things were accomplished.

But in reality, only 25 years had passed.

Night Fragrance and White Poplar, after recovery, flowered and fruited at the first opportunity. The first batch of fruits rooted on Potato Leaf Star was still some years away from maturity.

Great King Cypress and Senior Orchid Mantis, Wingless, Black Lotus, and Bicolor Mulberry, all Divine Grades, were at rest from flowering and fruiting, focusing their efforts on comprehending Primordial Energy and enriching the Star Marks.

Currently,

only ordinary Origin Force Plants and the Blessed Seeds are producing annually at Xianglan Mountain.

Combined, Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid bring in about 100,000 Primordial Crystals in revenue each year, producing Origin Force Honey and Bee King Honey for sale in the Tree Blossom Shop of the Palace Powder Star Commercial District.

However,

once Night Fragrance and White Poplar Fruits mature, they could be sold for a large sum.

In the White Crystal Star System, the Divine-Grade Night Fragrance Fruit and White Poplar Fruit can be directly exchanged for Divine-Given Origin Force Food, each selling for up to 4 million Primordial Crystals per piece.

When calculated,

Night Fragrance's revenue amounts to a high of 622,000 Primordial Crystals per year.

White Poplar's revenue similarly reaches a high of 606,000 Primordial Crystals per year.

Just these two Divine-Grade Blessed Seeds alone can bring nearly 1.23 million Primordial Crystals in high revenue annually.

The remaining four Divine-Grades might be somewhat less.

Great King Molan at the Star Marks Realm focused on understanding visual-related Primordial Energy Power, deeply enhancing aspects of farsightedness, nearsightedness, static vision, dynamic vision, and field of view.

Breaking through to the Half Star Realm, the Scorching Ability will qualitatively transform to become even more powerful.

In the Universe Starry Sky, the Scorching Ability has numerous fantastic uses, but there are also many alternative solutions, possibly even better ones.

The Divine-Grade Molan Seed can fetch a high price, but not at sky-high levels, likely between 1 to 1.5 million Primordial Crystals per piece if nothing unexpected occurs.

…

The situation with the Divine Black Lotus Divine Seed is somewhat unique.

The Super Brain Ability should belong to the Life System, a variant power of the life type.

Utterly unique.

Black Lotus must focus deeply in the direction of 'enhancing the brain.'

References can be made to the energy field of other life-type Divine-Grade Blessed Seeds, but there isn't anything similar, making it hard to borrow from others.

Dragon Cypress consulted Kansui and Giant Taro, two old Spiders, long ago, but they couldn't offer good suggestions.

Black Lotus is contemplating on its own.

It's hard to predict details.

…

The Divine Seed of Wingless produces Divine-Grade Fruit that has both Wind System Talent Granting and Wingless Wind System Ability effects. In the Star Marks Realm, there are two development directions.

The first direction is a deep research into Wind System Talent Granting, moving toward Wind System Elemental Affinity development. In future breakthroughs to the Half Star Realm, while granting a Wind System Talent, it's anticipated to enhance Wind System Elemental Talent.

The value of this effect would be very high.

For example, an Insect like Dragon Cypress, who lacks talent, would certainly be willing to spend a fortune to purchase Divine Grades to make up for shortcomings.

5 million per piece wouldn't be excessive.

However, the chance of succeeding in this direction is very, very low.

The second direction is to further strengthen the Wind System Wingless Ability.

For instance, referencing the 'Wind Wings' ability carried by the Winged Gourd Divine Grade, expanding and strengthening this type of biomimicry movement type Wind System auxiliary flying power.

In future breakthroughs to the Half Star Realm, the Divine-Grade Fruit produced not only grants Wind System Talent but also a powerful wind system ability that can directly condense into a trace.

This path is relatively stable, with a success rate of over 50%.

Of course, the value of the Divine-Grade Fruit might just be between 1 to 1.5 million.

Dragon Cypress's suggestion to Wingless is to pursue both paths simultaneously, spending more time in the Star Marks Realm if possible.

Once there are enough Primordial Crystals and finances are ample, an auction of three Primordial Gemstones can be conducted for Wingless's use.

Currently, everyone is supported by the two Divine-Grades, Night Fragrance and White Poplar. Other Divine-Grade Blessed Seeds can be postponed for now. For the long term, it's crucial to fully develop their innate potential to the utmost.

…

…

Dragon Cypress led the way, traversing mountains and valleys for half a day, wandering a large circle, and finally arriving beneath the Double-Colored Mulberry Tree.

Dragon Cypress looked at the densely packed bird nests in the tree, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say for a moment.
