Dawn Spider

Dafeng Mountain, inhabited by caves.

After simple preparation, copper went into a dormant state to evolve.

……

Two days later,
The Force barrier cast by the meditation cushion trembled.

Silver and Sky Blue, who were guarding the cave entrance, immediately woke up and looked closely. They saw that it was Copper that was patting.

"Fourth brother!"

"Copper's awake!"

"It has grown a lot and it looks like it has successfully completed its first molt evolution."

"A 2-year-old Round Purple Flame Spider Warrior!"

"..."

Silver and Sky Blue shouted, controlling the removal of the Force Barrier and retracting the Meditation Shield.

Jin slowly awoke from his meditation.

Copper flew out of the cave and came straight to Gold, burying its head and spitting out the seeds bestowed by the God of Tall Rain Flower.

"Gold, silver, the divinely bestowed seeds are ready! Shall we return to Mount Silk Palm to plant them?"

"more or less."

"Put it away first."

"Wait a moment!"

"Fourth Brother! The bronze life pouch! Quick! Check the life pouch!"

Yin rushed into the cave and took out a bag of seeds that he had prepared beforehand.

Jin snatched it away, picked out a plump, vibrant Famu seed, and placed it in front of Tong.

"Copper, give it a try and see if the life sac can still nurture a second life seed."

"Okay~"

Having completed an evolutionary stage, Copper's mental power has increased significantly, and it responded using its mental power.

It scooped up the seed with its two paws, swallowed it whole, and put it into its life pouch.

Try to absorb the primal force of nature, transform it into primal energy, gather it into the life capsule, and infuse it into the seed...

"..."

Bronze tried it, and then tried it again, and said, "Gold and silver seem to really not work."

Yin asked, "Is it impossible to cultivate a second life seed?"

Copper replied, "No."

Jin focused his mental energy and consciousness on Tong, carefully scanning and sensing, but still could not detect the spatial energy source.

—It can only nurture one life seed, and it has no spatial talent potential?

—Were the previous assumptions wrong?
—Or is it that copper's evolutionary level is too low?

—The spatial system is a power transcending the seven elements, strength, life, and soul; theoretically, it's a power that only a first-level cosmic life form can wield. I awakened my spatial talent and comprehended spatial power early on thanks to the ancient artifact, the Spacetime Cube. Copper, on the other hand, didn't have the blessing of an artifact.

—Let's look at it when we reach a higher level of evolution.

—It's likely that we'll only see some clues after we reach the advanced warrior level.

Jin Xin quickly made a judgment.

“Copper, it’s not a big problem. You should still have inherited my heterogeneous talent. But this level of power is too high. You need to evolve to a higher level of life to activate this talent.”

"Oh……"

Copper agreed.

Tianlan asked, "Copper should awaken its elemental talent at the Mountain Lord level, just like normal warriors, right? If it currently possesses both lightning and alien talents, will it randomly awaken one of them, like many Zerg warriors?"

"Yes~"

Yin said, "Wouldn't it be a huge waste to only awaken lightning-type talents?"

"..."

Jin pondered for a moment and said, "It's not a big problem, we'll see when the time comes."

Not a big problem?

"Fourth Brother, there's another big problem!"

Silver raised its paw and said, "Copper can only nurture one life seed, and it chooses a divinely bestowed seed. Could it be similar to the Golden Leaf Vine?"

This is indeed a big question worth looking forward to!

If it can be repeatedly nurtured and strengthened through the Life Sac, producing only one flower and one fruit, similar to the fruit of the Golden Leaf Vine, then the yield would be no less than that of dozens of Life Seeds in a normal Life Sac.

"Hard to say……"

Jin said uncertainly, "The Golden Rain Tree, the Golden Leaf Vine, and the Pokeweed are divinely bestowed seeds. They are primal plants that are inherently at a higher level of life. The Golden Leaf Vine only blooms one flower and bears one fruit, which should be its innate nature, rather than the result of being nurtured and strengthened by the life sac."

Jin said, "Of course, these are all just speculations now. We'll only have a definite answer after we conduct actual tests."

Jin instructed, "Tong, first spit out the Famu seeds, and then put the Gao Ting Yu Jiu Hua divinely bestowed seeds back into your life pouch."

"OK……"

Make it the same way as copper.

Silver immediately brought out the food that had been prepared beforehand, "Copper, eat your fill first."

...

The land reclamation project is still ongoing.

The main problem is that the planned construction of 100 million nest chambers for ordinary small flame spiders is too troublesome.

It wasn't until the end of December that the project was finally completed.

...

January 1, 26th year of Shanglu
The Qingsha Port Trading Plaza and Securities Trading Center opened for business on time.

Yin and Tianlan stood guard behind the counter inside the store.

Gold, carrying copper, stood at the door to greet guests. —Little Purple Fur was carrying a tiny purple-feathered creature?
There are only six or seven thousand insects on Ivory Island, and most of them are busy managing their own territories. As a result, there are very few new things to talk about in a year.

A small purple-haired spider!

Are they the descendants of the alien civilization nurtured by the equipment in Relic No. 1002, born as little purple-haired flame spider warriors?

They released little soldiers so quickly?
Does that directly indicate that the probability of Force Warriors being born from the bloodline cultivated by the alien civilization's equipment in Ruins 1002 has increased?

This news is absolutely explosive!

Insects flocked to the trading square, and a steady stream of insects approached to inquire about the situation and chat.

Of course, every now and then, there are also Zerg warriors who come to do serious business and seek loans.

Time flies, and it's already the 14th.
The excavation team of insects arrived one after another.
The stock exchange is temporarily closed, so we'll head to the dock to wait.

Cargo ships bound for the southern continent sailed against the wind and waves, appearing on the horizon on time and gradually slowing down.

Before they even got close to the port, a sharp-eyed old flame spider on the ship noticed something amiss.

"what!"

"Everyone, look closely, what's that on the purple-haired guy's head!"

"Another purple-haired spider!"

"Little purple fur!"

"Round Purple Flame Spider Little Warrior!"

"King of the Wood Spiders! Lord Famu! It seems that your lineage has indeed spawned a completely new branch of the Flame Spider clan!"

"gold!"

"Jin, come up here and talk to me!"

The Kashiki Spider King and the Famu Lord used their mental powers to scan and shout.

"..."

With a light leap, Jin Dengtui flashed twice and landed gracefully on the deck.

"After the fog surge, a round purple flame spider warrior was born in the kingdom of red-headed termites. His name is 'Copper'."

Jin formally introduced, pointing with his paw, and said, "Tong, this is our lineage's ancestor, the Kashimo Spider King."

"Greetings, Wood Spider King!"

The copper chelicerae produce a sound by rubbing together.

With a flick of his golden claw, he pointed to Lord Famu, who was practically face-to-face with him, and introduced him: "This is my elder's elder, Lord Famu."

"Greetings, Lord Famu!"

Because of the close proximity, Tong directly used his mental power to summon the enemy.

"The little guy is very strong! And his mental strength is also very powerful! Two years old? Has his mental strength reached two meters?"

"Yes. Just over two meters, which is not bad."

"Where's the seed of destiny? Where's the life capsule? Isn't that normal?"

"This one……"

Jin explained, “Last May, the fog ended, and Yin and I set off from the termite kingdom, preparing to head south for a trade... I was lucky enough to discover a budding Tall-stemmed Rain-flower Divine Seed in a wild swamp.”

"Just one month later, news came from the termite kingdom that a little warrior named Bronze, the Round Purple Flame Spider, had been born."

"Therefore, this divinely bestowed seed must belong to copper. We waited until the seed matured and harvested, and used it for copper immediately."

"..."

The spiders were dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Coincidence? That's too much of a coincidence!
Purple Hair, you guys are so lucky!

Lord Famu pressed on, "What about the life sac? A bronze life sac can normally nurture a life seed, right?"

The copper rubbed its chelicerae and replied, "No. Like gold, I can only nurture one life."

"..."

The lively atmosphere suddenly cooled down.

"So, Tong successfully inherited the alien talent?"

"I didn't sense any alien energy fluctuations?"

"It's not certain yet. Is the evolutionary level too low? We'll know once we reach a higher evolutionary level."

"That……"

"Like the Golden Leaf Vine, can the copper seed change its form? Can it be repeatedly nurtured and strengthened through the life sac?"

"Is the golden vine an exception? It's different from the golden vine, isn't it?"

"This is a pretty big problem."

"Jin, then your development of the Purple Flame Spider tribe will be in trouble!"

“One, two, or even a few or a dozen Circular Purple Flame Spider warriors are fine; they can trade with you. But if you want to develop into a large insect race with hundreds or thousands of members, there won’t be that many trades for you to do.”

"A single life seed is simply not enough to sustain itself."

"Not every little spider is as lucky as you, to have a seed given by God."

"With so many spiders, most of them can only choose ordinary seeds as their life seeds."

"Spiders like this, and their kind of population, cannot develop."

"..."

The spiders discussed amongst themselves and came to a consensus: the Purple Flame Spider clan that Jin had cultivated had an inherent defect and could not grow and thrive.

There were still many key issues that hadn't been clarified, so Jin didn't say much. Seeing that the discussion was almost over, he changed the subject and asked:
"King of the Oak Spiders, how were the sales of your granular fertilizer last year?"

The King of the Wood Spiders replied, "It's alright, I sold it for over seven million..."

As they were talking, the cargo ship entered the port and docked securely.

The excavating team members scrambled onto the planks, inquiring about the sales of the granular fertilizer. Jin organized everyone to share it proportionally. (End of Chapter)
