Chapter 1223 - 758: Tree Aralia, Nebula Crabapple_3

The third situation, the Divine God-Given Seed in Xianglan Mountain or the breakthrough evolution of the King Cypress, leaving Round Cypress to wait for results, was delayed.

Dragon Cypress leaned more towards the third possibility, remaining calm, and consulted with Great Leader Redwood, deciding to move all the Huagi Mountain Warriors to Cicada Orchid Star.

The equatorial region of Cicada Orchid Star set up 220 ecological base stations, temporarily developing 100, continuing to complete the development of the remaining 120.

The insects of Xianglan Mountain, Spiked Cypress, Cypress, Silver Cypress, Black Birch, Rainbow Tea, and Rainbow Apricot, six Assistant Kings, went to Tiger Orchid Star to expedite water creation among the Specialized Blue Soldiers there.

The other insects of Xiangshanlan stayed on Cold Orchid Star to continue developing the ecological base stations in the temperate zones of the Southern and Northern Hemispheres.

Dragon Cypress also moved to Cold Orchid Star, began the large-scale cultivation of Specialized Stone Soldiers and Mountain Ants, handed over to Black Cory, Rainbow Light, Nebula Banyan, Black Leaf, Black Persimmon, and Nebula Crabapple, six Assistant Kings to command, accelerating the process of rock sandification.

…

…

[Time: Era 78 - Yuan 140 - Year 851]

Cold Orchid Star,

Ecological base station number 8000 in the temperate zone of the Southern Hemisphere.

Temporarily named 'Spotted Leaf Thousand Claws' sub-nest, Dragon Cypress was busy training the newly feathered Specialized Stone Soldiers and Mountain Ants.

The Specialized Air Soldiers conducting aerial reconnaissance suddenly became agitated and sent back a pheromone alert: [There is an unfamiliar Ant Clan approaching]

Dragon Cypress expanded its Soul-Setting Ability for sensing.

Round Cypress and Mountain Persimmon!

About a hundred kilometers away, rushing overland in a run.

Dragon Cypress breathed a silent sigh of relief.

28 years late compared to the agreed time,

but fortunately, the insects are safe.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King!"

"Dragon Cypress Ant King!"

From a great distance, Round Cypress and Mountain Persimmon used their Soul-Setting Ability to anchor on Dragon Cypress, conveying greetings over long distance.

Dragon Cypress asked: "Round Cypress, what happened?"

Round Cypress: "The King Cypress broke through and advanced to the Half-Star Realm four or five hundred years earlier than expected."

——The King Cypress is quite reliable, it wouldn't break through rashly without confidence~

Dragon Cypress quickly calculated in its mind and asked: "Round Cypress, are you waiting for the second Wangbai Seed? Have you sent it over?"

Round Cypress: "Yes, Dragon Cypress Ant King."

Round Cypress said: "The King Cypress decided to give the first one to Rainbow Parasol Tree for testing, and it succeeded, but it cost a lot of resources to enhance the soul, grow, and evolve, currently at Half-Star Realm, Age Period 4."

"We waited for the second Wangbai Seed to be harvested and also waited an additional five years to exchange for a Divine-Grade Fruit, which is being sent to Dragon Cypress Ant King together."

"Oh——"

Dragon Cypress felt invigorated and asked: "Has Rainbow Parasol Tree succeeded? Can you be specific? How large is the dimension space? What about the positioning accuracy and distance of the Universal Compass? What is the single leap transition distance in the Half-Star Realm?"

Round Cypress, while running, answered: "The dimension space is 800 meters in diameter, a breakthrough in a large realm should allow it to double and expand further."

"The positioning accuracy of the Universal Compass is very high and can reach far distances. Chairman White Ivy tested and proved accurate navigation within the White Crystal Star System is no problem."

"The maximum single leap transition distance is approximately 14 trillion kilometers, over 0.15 light years, a considerable distance."

"However, the leap ability of the Technological Star Core consumes the Primordial Energy stored within our warriors. For each transition, it requires extracting the warriors' internal Primordial Energy and converting it into spatial Primordial Energy, which involves an energy conversion process. Lacking a spatial system talent, this process becomes quite lengthy, with a single energy accumulation taking as long as a month."

"..."

"A month?"

Dragon Cypress pondered, calculated, and fell silent.

A single leap of 0.15 light years, the distance is indeed quite far.

But the energy accumulation takes a month...

That would equate to a travel speed of 1.8 times the speed of light?

Rainbow Parasol Tree's current evolution level being at the Half-Star Realm matches the travel speed of the Type 1-1 Star Spider and Starship.

Dragon Cypress asked: "Round Cypress, the rate at which unassigned Primordial Energy converts to spatial Primordial Energy, does it improve with evolution level?"

"Yes, Dragon Cypress Ant King."

Round Cypress replied: "According to the verification and estimation of Rainbow Parasol Tree and Chairman White Ivy, breaking through to the Planet Realm and Star Realm in the future will increase the single maximum leap transition distance, and the energy accumulation time will be gradually reduced."

"According to travel speed calculations, Star Realm equates to a Third-Level Starship; Habitat Realm equates to a Second-Level Starship; Overlord Realm can reach the speed of a Third-Level Starship."

"This is quite reasonable and aligns with the Universe Law."

Dragon Cypress asked: "Then for Flame Spiders with spatial system talent like White Ivy, will the energy accumulation time be greatly reduced? By proxy, the speed will increase."

"Yes. Specifically, it needs to be tested to know."

Round Cypress asked: "Great King, Chairman White Ivy requested the use of the third or fourth Wangbai Seed."

Dragon Cypress: "The Second King doesn't urgently need it. Let Chairman White Ivy use it first."

Round Cypress then asked: "There's Column Spotted, Heliotrope, Cicada Seed that haven't tasted the Wangbai Seed. Dragon Cypress Ant King, should we arrange for them first?"

Dragon Cypress: "Heliotrope's funds, was it Seven-Leaf who paid? Three billion?"

Round Cypress: "...yes."

Dragon Cypress: "Then arrange one for Heliotrope soon. Column Spotted and Cicada Seed will follow Heliotrope. Including Seven-Leaf, Aconite, and Natsumi, they can be prioritized for supply."

"As for our Xianglan Mountain Insects, there's no rush. The Star Voyage Ability granted by Technological Star Core at the Half Star Realm stage, its speed is only equivalent to the 1-1 type Starship and Star Spider, not necessary for short distances and insufficient for long ones, making it somewhat redundant."

Round Cypress: "Understood. Dragon Cypress Ant King."

During the conversation,

Round Cypress and Mountain Persimmon ran to catch up.

Upon meeting,

a flash of Shanglu Divine Pattern on Round Cypress's forehead, two metal cans floated out, suspended before Dragon Cypress, tentacle pointing, said:

"Dragon Cypress Ant King, this can seals the Wangbai Seed, this can seals the Divine-Grade Tyrola Fruit!"

"Good—"

Dragon Cypress waved its claw to receive them.

An additional flash of Shanglu Divine Pattern from Round Cypress's forehead, a pile of Chaos Tops fell out, totaling 1000 pieces.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King, these are 1-3 type Chaos Tops, Star Realm level. We used 1-1 type, Half Star Realm level in the Venus Star System. Rainbow Parasol Tree tried it, the effect degradation is not significant, it can still efficiently assist in comprehending abilities. We calculated that you can still use another 1000 pieces."

"Nice! Very well!"

Dragon Cypress nodded and waved its claw to receive them.

Another sequence of flashes from Round Cypress's Shanglu Divine Pattern, a large pile of Accounting Slates fell out.

"Dragon Cypress Ant King, these are accounts from the past 600 years."

"Okay—"

Dragon Cypress quickly collected them.

Round Cypress: "Dragon Cypress Ant King, on this trip, I also brought 1 billion Primordial Crystals in cash, and 1 billion Primordial Crystals worth of Ant King Honey."

"Just store them separately in the Treasuries of Cicada Orchid Star and Tiger Orchid Star."

Dragon Cypress instructed: "Round Cypress, take Mountain Persimmon and stroll around. Second King is on Stone Orchid Star, leading a few Little Warriors in play, remember to visit. Second King has a 'Wind Insect Fan' Divine-Given Seed, be sure to collect it and bring it back to Xianglan Mountain for planting."

"Little Warrior? Divine-Given Seed?"

Round Cypress happily and resoundingly replied: "Got it! Remembered Dragon Cypress Ant King."

Dragon Cypress continued: "There's a newly born Assistant King named Nebula Crabapple, also bring it back to Sheep Hoof Armor Star System, exchange Divine-Grade Fruits, enhance it once, and send it back in 600 years."

"Understood!"

Round Cypress agreed.

Dragon Cypress gently tapped its tentacles, asked: "Is Chairman Blackberry at Plaza 1001? I'll notify Leader Redwood that the relocation can proceed..."

...

Chamber of Commerce funds were ample, Dragon Cypress appeared generous.

Dragon Cypress and Leader Redwood gathered all warriors to hold a grand feast celebration together by the lakeside of Cicada Orchid Star.

This time, Round Cypress brought along 1 billion Primordial Crystals worth of Ant King Honey, all taken out for everyone to enjoy eating and drinking.

...

After the celebration, work commenced.

All 550 sets of ecological base stations deployed on Cold Orchid Star were retracted,

Chairman Blackberry piloted Star Spider to assist with the transfer, moving 220 sets to Cicada Orchid Star, deploying 110 sets each in the northern and southern hemispheric temperate zones.

The temperature on Cicada Orchid Star had already decreased, the surface mostly covered in gravel and dust, rendering the development and transformation work relatively simple.

Another 330 sets of ecological base stations,

transfer 297 sets to Tiger Orchid Star, make up to 330 sets to be deployed in the equatorial region.

The remaining 33 sets were transferred to Banlan Star.

The fifth planet designated for development was confirmed to be Banlan Star.

Using Fish Vine to open the Gate of Truth, transferring 3 million Specialized Blue Soldiers from Cold Orchid Star over.

For the next 600 years, development work on Cold Orchid, Cicada Orchid, Tiger Orchid, Banlan four planets would proceed simultaneously.

...

Minor adjustments in insect worker arrangements,

Black Rice along with Round Cypress, Nebula Crabapple left on Star Spider, returning to Xianglan Mountain for rest.

Mountain Persimmon stayed to help.

Mountain Persimmon naturally had low presence, avoiding Xianglan Mountain's many insects, quietly working solo, first planting a batch of Soul Constructing Trees in the temperate region of Stone Orchid Star.
