Dawn Spider

Chapter 72 Snake Mountain
The golden sun hangs low in the eastern sky, casting a golden red cast on the surrounding clouds.

In the early morning after a rainstorm, the air is filled with the fragrance of soil and a refreshing breeze, and the whole world seems to be brand new.

"Lord of Red Cone Mountain..."

"Gold! Taro!"

The first time is strange, the second time is familiar. Tianlan, Jin and Yutou have become familiar with each other, and they came running from a distance to greet them.

They became more familiar with each other and talked more.

"Jin, you're a day late."

"The molting evolution has been delayed."

"Are you now a 9th-year-old junior warrior?"

"It's obvious."

"Has it gotten stronger? Can your spider silk touch me now?"

"..."

Are you mocking me again?

Of course it wasn't intentional. This guy has a low IQ and a terribly low EQ.

I can feel that Tianlan is a little worried.

It was worried that its strength would increase dramatically after evolution, and it would not be able to obtain the taro's growth ability for free.

Jin thought carefully and said, "From age 8 to age 9, it's just a minor evolution, and the improvement in all aspects is very limited. Tianlan, I still won't be able to touch you."

"That's too..."

"Sorry."

Tianlan couldn't express his true feelings, but couldn't hide his joy. He flapped his wings, moving up and down, left and right.

Suddenly realizing that he had been too obvious, he flew side by side with the Red Cone Mountain Master and encouraged him, "Jin, keep going!"

Jin Moran replied: "Let's work hard together!"

The Red Cone Mountain Master shuddered and muttered, "Two naive little bugs..."

The Red Cone Mountain Lord lectured, "Jin, our Flame Spider warriors' most powerful elemental abilities are fire. You're a thunder elemental, so your most powerful elemental abilities are lightning. If you enjoy fighting, you can wait until you evolve to the Mountain Lord level and awaken your lightning abilities. Then, focus on training your lightning abilities."

"Manipulating spider silk to fight? How did you come up with that? Spider silk is not for fighting. You are wasting your life."

Wasting your life? I used this trick to defeat the strong with the weak, and I defeated the Blood Iron Progenitor, you know?
There is no way to explain it, and no need to explain it.

Jin perfunctorily responded, "I'm still a long way from reaching the mountain master level. It would be good to manipulate the spider silk and train my mental strength."

The Red Cone Mountain Master insisted, "Then you should eat and have fun. While you're young, go play around!"

Such elders are amazing!

"I'm not playful."

Jin responded perfunctorily and changed the subject, saying, "The Lord of Yedian Mountain and Xiangpu are here."

The Lord of Ye Indigo Mountain and Xiangpu were rushing towards this side along the ridge.

"Lord of the Wild Indigo Mountain!"

"Xiangpu!"

"Lord of Red Cone Mountain! Jin..."

They greeted each other from a distance.

Arrived one day later than agreed.
After meeting, we briefly explained the situation and went down the mountain together to the garden surrounded by wire mesh.

As usual, Jin activated his mental power and professionally scanned and checked the status of the golden-mouthed scorpion-tail banana god-given seed.

Taro moved closer to sense it.

"Taro, how about it?"

"Wow~Wow~"

Taro gently tapped the ninth taro leaf on the top to indicate that everything was OK.

"Taro, the growth rate is still 2 hairs per day?"

"Wow~Wow~"

The taro nods to the taro leaves.

"Okay! Let's get started!"

"Wow~Wow~"

The taro shook the two taro leaves on its top, and the green wood energy mist rose up, covering the seeds of the golden-mouthed scorpion-tail banana given by God.

Xiangpu and Tianlan consciously took the raw stone, scraped it to release the Force, and replenished the Force for the seeds given by the gods of the golden-mouthed scorpion-tail banana.

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain stood aside and chatted with the Lord of Wild Indigo Mountain. After watching for a while, he said goodbye and left.

Jin then went to the Terminalia tamarind forest and planted the seeds of the golden leaf vine given by God.

With the added reinforcement of the life capsule and the accelerated growth of the taro, the growth rate of the golden leaf vine is terrifying.

A single main vine spans across one terminalia tree after another, winding for more than 90 meters.

After Taro used the power of the divine seed given by the Golden Mouth Scorpion Tail Banana, he rushed to help the Golden Leaf Vine. He fired two shots as soon as he came up, and a large ball of green mist enveloped the vine.

Jin was keenly aware that the rate at which the golden leaf vine absorbed growth power had increased a lot.

"Golden Leaf Vine, after an age-related strengthening, you should be able to withstand more growth now, right?"

"Of course. I'm currently testing my understanding..."

Golden Leaf Vine pondered for a moment and said, "Three in the morning and three in the evening. Now I should be able to sustain six hairs of growth per day."

"To put it another way, I currently need six hairs of growth capacity every day to achieve the ultimate effect of doubling my growth rate."

"Jin, do you understand what I mean?"

“It’s not hard to understand!”

Jin turned sideways and asked, "Taro, do you understand?"

"Wow~Wow~"

Taro tapped the top leaf and shook it gently, and another stream of green wood energy mist rose.

The three growth abilities for the morning were all in place. Jin opened the bag of raw stones he had brought and asked Tianlan to help him replenish the force of the golden leaf vine.

It took until 10 raw stones were used before signs of Force saturation appeared.

In the morning, Jin took Tianlan to do basic physical exercises.

In the afternoon, Jin and Tianlan practiced as usual, working hard on their fighting skills.

I tested it again in the evening. In order to match the taro's 3-step growth ability, the golden leaf vine used up another 10 raw stones.

The current golden leaf vine costs up to 20 raw stones a day!
As Jin's age evolves, the life capsules are stacked and strengthened again and again, and the daily growth cost of raw stones will also increase.

Currently, I am only at the primary level of evolution. How much will it cost per day to reach the intermediate level in the future? How much will it cost to reach the advanced level?
With the superimposed strengthening of the life capsule, the golden leaf vine is developing towards becoming a big producer of raw stones.

"The Lord of Sikui Mountain can afford to support Yin and me, but he definitely can't afford to support two monsters like the Golden Leaf Vine and the God-Gifted Psoraleaf Seed that devour raw stones..."

"Does that mean that at the intermediate warrior stage, I have to start a business purchasing and processing the God-given Force Fruit?"

Jin thought about it, then immediately rejected the idea.

In the Flame Spider Kingdom, it is outrageous for a mid-level Flame Spider warrior to run around making money, and it is almost the same for a high-level warrior.

Advanced soldiers have a span of two to three meters, and basically meet the rigid requirements of body size, load-bearing capacity, speed, etc. Beginner and intermediate soldiers cannot carry too many things or anything too heavy.

"I have to think of another way to make money..."

"Or, take the Lord of Red Cone Mountain with you as a bodyguard?"

At night, Jin lay down under the golden leaf vine to rest, racking his brains until late at night, but he couldn't think of any particularly good ideas, so he put the matter aside for the time being.

...

At the age of 9, you must be cautious when you make the breakthrough from primary to intermediate level or to the big class.

Jin and Sikui Mountain Master discussed and planned to make a breakthrough after a six-month interval.

First, rest for four months, and then spend two months using Force food slowly and evenly to prepare for a breakthrough.

The daily routine remains unchanged: meditation in the evening, physical exercise in the morning, and sparring with Tianlan in the afternoon.

...

Another half month has passed in a flash.
The divinely gifted seeds of the Golden Mouth Scorpion Tail Banana did not appear to have changed from the ground, but a spiritual scan of the ground revealed that the underground tubers of the mother plant had become three times thicker, and the roots of the five branches had also expanded and become thicker, accelerating their lignification.

When initial results are seen and the lignified roots of the divided plants swell and evolve into tubers, the next round of division will begin.

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain arrived as promised. After some packing, he set off with Jin and Taro, heading south.

...

The three mutant snakeskin fruit trees of the Western Serpent Lord's divinely gifted seeds all possessed fire-strengthening effects, and the fruit was highly fleshy. Every year when the fruit ripened, scores of Flame Spider warriors from the Sea Lemon Mountains would flock to the Snake Mountains to visit the Western Serpent Lord and feast on the flesh of the divinely gifted snakeskin fruit.

There are also many spiders who are trying to curry favor with the Western Snake Lord and run errands for him. If there is any new news from the Sala Twin Islands or the neighboring Ivory Island, they will come to inform the Western Snake Lord as soon as possible.

Over time, these Flame Spider Warriors carved out a path leading deep into the primeval rainforest.

The owner of Hongzhui Mountain was familiar with the route. He set off around noon and reached Snake Mountain in the afternoon.

"Lord of the Western Snake~"

"Lord of the Western Snake~"

"Lord of the Western Snake~"

Entering the forest full of snakeskin trees, the Lord of Red Cone Mountain walked along the straight canal while scanning with his mental power and shouting.

A faint spiritual force swept past, and the next second it suddenly gathered, and a powerful and heavy spiritual power came:

"Purple fur?"

"God-given evil spirit!"

"Red Cone, are you running around with Spider-Man again?"

"You go up the mountain."

"..."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain quickened his pace and passed through the snake fruit forest. In front of him was a huge mountain that stood out from the vast jungle.

The Western Snake Lord was already waiting at the foot of the mountain, staring at Taro with his eight eyes glowing.

"Isn't this the evil spirit of the calla lily god-given seed that I captured? Did you return it to me?"

gold:"……"

Taro:"……"

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain: "..."

Jin felt guilty and didn't know how to answer.

"Lord of the Western Snake, don't joke with the little soldier..."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain quickly changed the subject and went straight to the point: "Lord West Snake, I have come all the way to Snake Mountain with gold because I need your help with something important."

"The situation is this: when Jin was still an ordinary flame spider, he accidentally ate the divinely bestowed Lei Linan fruit, causing a lightning mutation, which also triggered a mutation in his life sac..."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain spoke quickly, describing the situation of Jin's life capsule and life seed, expressing his doubts about the breakthrough of a 9-year-old junior warrior to evolve into an intermediate warrior, and the purpose of this trip.

"You little purple-haired boy, there are so many strange things about you..."

The Western Serpent Lord muttered, pondering, and asked, "Did you bring your Golden Leaf Vine Life Seed, the God-given seed?"

Jin replied, "I brought it here."

The Western Serpent Lord raised his paw and pointed forward, saying, "Find a place and sow the seeds. Let me take a look."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain and the Lord of Western Snake pulled the spider silk rope in the woods and made a simple climbing frame.

Jin spat out the golden leaf vine seeds, showed them to the Western Snake Lord first, and then dug the soil to sow them.

The golden leaf vine grew rapidly and soon became a giant vine with a main vine length of more than 90 meters.

"???"

A questioning thought came from the Golden Leaf Vine, asking, "Jin, where did you plant me? Who is this giant spider? The Western Snake Lord you were talking about last time? Is this Snake Mountain?"

"Yes. Lord West Snake wants to see you with his own eyes..."

Jin was explaining when the Western Snake Lord, who was standing not far away and watching, suddenly spoke with a very certain tone:

"Purple Hair, there's no need to bother asking the Spider King. When you break through to the intermediate level at age 9, have it transform into a seed, retract the Life Capsule, and continue strengthening."
