Chapter 1034: Chapter 698: Different Paths (Part 2)
It seems that breaking through the Nine Traces Realm isn’t difficult.
The Nine Traces Realm, the spiritual power of the King Cypress will certainly be able to cover all Origin Force Plants, and by then, the Thousand-Year Tree must still be handed over to the King Cypress.
Dragon Cypress also has a Common Shimmering Gold, initially arranged for the King Cypress to use, using 300 Primordial Crystals in one go, storing a sufficient amount of Primordial Energy for standby, accelerating the recovery of the King Cypress.
...
Three days later,
The height of the azure tree trunk broke through 60 meters, and the rate of growth recovery sharply decreased.
The situation with the King Cypress is also similar.
When leaving, due to limited Shanglu Space, only some of the remains of White Poplar, Great Ink Orchid, Bicolor Mulberry, Black Lotus, Wingless, and Night Fragrance, the six Divine God-Given Seed remains were taken. Their tree trunk heights slowed to around 40 meters when the White Refining Bead was exhausted.
The remaining Common Life Seed and Blessed Seed remains could not be carried due to lack of space, and can only recover slowly.
...
Twilight,
White Ivy, Silvergrass, and Poison Bean returned.
The insects hurriedly gathered upon hearing the news.
"The Shield Grasshopper Warriors and Spruce were successfully delivered to North 4450 District and handed over to the Mountain Maple Ancestor."
"I asked in detail again. The benefits of the Huagi Chamber of Commerce, among all the Great Tribes, are considered top-level, right? Whether it’s Shield Grasshopper Warriors or Long Shield Grasshopper Warriors, during the Third Trace Realm stage, it’s 3000 Primordial Crystals per year. It doubles at the Nine Traces Realm and doubles again at the Star Marks Realm, with tribal support for growth until independence at the Star Realm."
"Boss Yellow and the Spruce arranged for the Life Seeds to take root right away, so they did not come over."
Ink Orchid asked: "What about the Barley Bug Tribe? What does the Mountain Maple Ancestor say?"
White Ivy replied: "It depends on what the Barley Bug Warriors say. Mountain Maple means that, since on the home planet, the three Divine Trees acknowledge, the two tribes merge and coexist. When in the Universe Star Space, their Shield Grasshopper Tribe will definitely be willing to accept the Barley Bug Tribe."
"Formally join the Huagi Chamber of Commerce, all Little Warriors, the welfare and treatment are the same."
White Ivy looked at Wuye, Pueraria, and the others and asked, "But following Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid mixes a brighter future, right?"
"Of course, the Huagi Chamber of Commerce is large and powerful. The Shield Grasshopper Tribe has produced various types of genius warriors, some skilled in management and operations, some skilled in combat, some skilled in social interactions and trade, there’s all kinds of insects. The Huagi Chamber of Commerce has already taken shape, and its reputation is quite good, providing security in all aspects by mingling with it."
White Ivy concluded: "Comparing Dragon Cypress, Ink Orchid, and Huagi Mountain, each has its merits. How to choose is up to you to decide."
It’s about the future direction of development and the choice that determines fate.
White Ivy exhibited a non-participating stance, indifferent to the outcome.
Wuye, Pueraria, Cornel, Beach Wheat, White-Hill Azalea, and Simss Azalea began to hesitate.
Chinese Clematis lowered its spiritual power and called softly, "Pueraria?"
Pueraria and Chinese Clematis have grown up playing together, having the best relationship, and do not want to be separated.
In truth, everyone hoped to continue with Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid...
Wuye sighed lightly, and sincerely said, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, Mantis King Ink Orchid, thank you for the care you’ve shown to the Barley Bug Tribe over the millennia. I also wish to continue developing under your leadership, but..."
Wuye paused and analyzed, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, Mantis King Ink Orchid, also Blue Catalpa, Snakebark Maple, Ghost Fan, Mulberry, and others, you haven’t developed a tribe on the home planet, right? And there won’t be any juniors coming later, correct? You’re pursuing individual growth and strength."
"Our Barley Bug Tribe is different. If nothing unexpected happens, juniors will continue to come in droves later on. Our development model conflicts with yours, and it is fated that we cannot proceed together."
Indeed.
If the Barley Bug Tribe is taken in, there would be hundreds or thousands of Barley Bug Warriors from the home planet following.
Wouldn’t Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid’s chamber of commerce turn into a Barley Bug Chamber of Commerce? The primary and secondary roles would become reversed.
Chinese Clematis fell silent.
Ink Orchid, who wanted to say something, also had nothing to say.
Dragon Cypress pondered for a moment, then said, "How about this? Pueraria stays and develops with us. Wuye, you lead Cornel, Beach Wheat, White-Hill Azalea, Simss Azalea, and join the Huagi Chamber of Commerce to develop the tribe."
"Walking different paths and modes doesn’t necessarily mean parting ways. On the contrary, in the future, my and Ink Orchid’s chamber of commerce, and the Huagi Chamber of Commerce, will definitely have many opportunities for cooperation, won’t there?"
Pueraria quickly stood side by side with Chinese Clematis and said, "I think it’s possible!"
Wuye nodded its tentacle and said, "That’s fine! This is also good!"
After a brief discussion, with some chatter, White Ivy, Silvergrass, Poison Bean took the five Barley Bug Warriors and left.
Dragon Cypress called upon the insects to choose a residence, dig caves, build nest chambers, settle down, and hold a grand celebratory banquet.
...
The Life Pouch was molded during the Insect King period and cannot nurture new Life Seeds after the Third Trace Realm.
However, the Dominating Throne still has room for ascent.
The flying speed and carrying capacity increase along with the strength of Dragon Cypress.
Most crucially, during the 1st Age Period of the Three Traces Realm, the number of Ant Eggs produced each time increased to 19 pieces; as per the rule, at the 4th Age Period, it should increase to 20 pieces; at the 7th Age Period, it increases to 21 pieces, and so on.
However,
Upon trying, it’s discovered that the time required to produce each batch of Ant Eggs is fixed at 2 days, and cannot be shortened. This is unrelated to Dragon Cypress’s strength, and seems to be a mechanism set during the design and manufacture of the Dominating Throne, with the shortest cycle being two days.
To fully calculate, at the Star Marks Realm 7th Age Period, the number of Ant Eggs per batch should be 27, with a daily average of 13.5.
Dragon Cypress speculates that there will still be regular growth at the Star Realm, calculating to the Stellar Realm 7th Age Period, with each batch numbering 36 and a daily average of 18.
It’s still a bit few...
But no longer pathetically few.
In the Universe Star Space’s survival and development, Insect Clan Warriors need to stick together, while most Ant Clans and Bee Clans are independently formidable existences.
