Dawn Spider

It is certain that the fruit of the golden vine will ripen three years later, between January and March of the 27th year of the Pokeweed tree.

Jin also plans to break through and be promoted to mountain lord in three years.

Those whose divine bloodline breaks through to become Mountain Lords can comprehend at least one ability with 100% certainty.

This time, Jin must independently comprehend a spatial ability, preferably an offensive one.

Besides meditating to enhance his spatial abilities, Jin began to diligently practice the two spatial abilities he had already mastered: Blink and Exile, and to calmly comprehend the power of space.

……

Shannan Territory, Plot 01
King Kong had completed a round of training in his exile abilities and was now lying under the seed tree bestowed by the gods of the pokeweed, directly using the Primal Crystal to draw upon Primal Force to recover.

A crimson light shone brightly on the mountain as Silver, having completed its molting and evolution, sped over.

"Fourth Brother! I've become the second-year mountain master!"

"Yes, Not Bad."

"Fourth Brother, have you noticed? My ability to escape has improved."

"Useless thing. Is your Flame Light ability just for escaping?"

"No...but...I don't have the ability to fight right now."

Yin quickly got straight to the point, saying, "Fourth Brother, during my first-year stage, I ate a fire-type divinely bestowed food worth 1 million! With this evolution, the speed of my Flame Light ability has almost doubled, and it can already handle most dangers."

"Fourth Brother, can Tianlan and I head to Ivory Island to expand our loan business?"

After saying that, it raised its paw and pointed to the mountain path in the distance.

During this evolutionary stage, the banana plant helped guard the entrance to the burrow.

Xiang Jiao is a very steady fellow, and he is walking down the mountain at a leisurely pace.

Yin said, "Xiangjiao will soon be a high-level warrior at age 2. If it stays at Silk Sunflower Mountain, it can help the Silk Sunflower Mountain Lord with daily chores."

Now, all the conditions are indeed in place to go to Ivory Island to promote the loan business.

"Not urgent……"

Jin hesitated for a moment, then suggested, "Judging by the time, the fog tide will break out again sometime between April and July next year. Yin, you stay on Mount Sikui and help the mountain lord look after the taro and bananas. I'll take you to Ivory Island the year after next."

Yin muttered, "Wouldn't it be fine to just let them hide on Haimeng Peak for two months?"

"Where's the taro?"

Silver suddenly remembered that he had successfully evolved into his second-instar, but Taro, who was usually the most enthusiastic, hadn't come to congratulate him.

A sweep of mental energy
Beside the irrigation ditch at the boundary of plots 01 and 02, taro roots stood motionless. Next to them were storage boxes and wooden barrels containing granular fertilizer.

This guy is fertilizing himself and giving himself extra food.

"..."

Yin ignored him, withdrew his mental energy, and continued to plead, "Fourth Brother, how about this? This year I'll go to Ivory Island with you, and you can take me to visit the various tribes there, introduce me to the insectoid warriors and the God-given Seed. Next year I'll stay at Silk Sunflower Mountain, and the year after that I'll go there to officially start the loan business. What do you think?"

"In that case, it doesn't seem like it's not a bad idea..."

Jin instructed, "Yin, you go ahead and eat and rest. When Lord Sikui returns tonight, we'll discuss it with him."

"Great!"

Yin cheered and asked, "Fourth Brother, does that mean we need to open another securities trading center next to the Qingsha Port Commercial Mall?"

"of course."

Jin said, "After the loan business on Ivory Island is officially launched, the Blue Shark Port Stock Exchange will be open for business from January 1st to January 13th every year."

"The securities trading center at Haimeng Peak Plaza is open from January 15th to January 30th each year. From February 1st to February 10th, you and Tianlan will be traveling around the Twin Islands of Saluo, surveying territories, reviewing new loan applications, and urging some Zerg warriors who haven't repaid their loans on time to do so." "After that, you'll travel to Ivory Island with a merchant ship. From February 15th to February 30th, the Qingsha Port Securities Trading Center will reopen for half a month. Afterwards, you and Tianlan will be traveling around Ivory Island, promoting loan services, surveying territories, and reviewing loan applications, etc."

"After years of hard work and with various businesses stabilizing, you no longer need to travel all the time. Most of the time, you and Tianlan can stay at the Qingsha Port Stock Exchange Center. When you have nothing to do, you can help coordinate the turnover of the divinely bestowed food in the various commercial branches on Ivory Island."

"understood!"

Yin Kengqiang agreed and asked, "Fourth Brother, shouldn't our salaries be increased appropriately?"

Jin countered, "Didn't Lord Tianqing break through and advance to the lord level this year?"

Yin replied, "Yes. It's agreed that it will officially begin on February 1st. I'll borrow the meditation cushion for a bit, and Tianlan and I will deliver it to it in a few days."

"Yes. Silver, you did a great job."

Jin said, "Tianqing Mountain Lord is the first Mountain Lord-level warrior to break through to the Lord level with a loan, and he borrowed 550 million? This also means that starting this year, our huge loans will begin to be recovered year by year with interest, and it also means that the profits from the loan business are beginning to be realized."

“Let’s set a small goal: if all our businesses generate more than 200 million in net revenue annually, I’ll give all employees a raise. That includes you and Tianlan, of course.”

"OK……"

Yin asked, "Fourth Brother, I deserve the most credit, right? Shouldn't I get a bigger raise?"

Jin said irritably, "What achievements have you made? You can't even handle a simple loan transaction properly, so you don't need to work for me anymore..."

"Fourth Brother, something's not right, is it?"

Yin retorted, "Loan and credit business is an extremely difficult task. Besides me, no one else could handle it, right?"

Jin angrily said, "Then why don't we let Red Tooth give it a try? He hasn't done much work, and instead of thinking about how to improve himself, he's always thinking about getting a raise..."

Xiang Jiao ran down the mountain, and as soon as she got close, she noticed that the two brothers, Jin and Yin, seemed to be arguing. She quickly turned around and ran towards the direction where the taro roots were.

"Stop arguing. Stop arguing."

As soon as Xiang Jiao approached the irrigation ditch, she sensed something was wrong and ran towards the pokeweed seed, suppressing her mental energy and calling out in her mind:
"Gold, Silver, stop arguing! Didn't you notice? Taro's acting strangely."

"???"

Gold and silver simultaneously redirected their mental energy, sweeping it towards the location where the taro was rooted.

Upon closer inspection, something seemed amiss.

The taro seemed to absorb the natural primal force much faster than usual.

This state is almost identical to the abnormal situation it experienced before it broke through to a higher level of evolution last time.

Taro is about to break through!
Jin and Yin looked at each other, overjoyed.

The golden figure flickered and arrived at the foot of the Golden Leaf Vine Tree, a gift from the gods, and immediately retrieved the floating meditation cushion.

"Spider? Are you trying to die?" Golden Vine roared in fury.

"It seems that Taro is about to break through to the Mountain Lord level."

Jin briefly explained that he controlled the meditation cushion with frost effects to float in front of him, raised his claws and clicked rapidly to adjust settings and check the original crystal balance.

"what!"

Golden Leaf Vine swept the area with its spiritual power, and after a brief sensing, exclaimed with delight, "It seems to be true!"

Without saying much, Jin controlled the meditation cushion and floated to the irrigation ditch. After scanning and checking it, he focused on controlling the spider silk rope and poured two more buckets of water to irrigate the ditch.

Commander Yin and Xiangjiao stood further away, controlling the meditation cushion to levitate 50 meters in the air, activating the realm breakthrough mode, and casting down a spherical shield with a radius of 50 meters to cover the taro.

A white mist swirled around, obscuring the view.

Gold, Silver, and Banana stood guard outside the barrier, waiting patiently. (End of Chapter)
