Dawn Spider

Chapter 89 Naming: Black Oak
The Flame Spider Kingdom has a total population of over 1,600 insects, most of whom are familiar with each other and often interact.

Becoming famous in the Flame Spider Kingdom is no easy feat.

Taro is a born 'star,' possessing various halos: a fierce spirit transformed from a wild, divinely bestowed seed; capable of understanding the spiritual power and intentions of all insectoid warriors and divinely bestowed seeds; having comprehended growth abilities that aid plant evolution and growth at the intermediate level; and assisting a golden-mouthed scorpion-tail banana divinely bestowed seed in the growth of Thousand Fruit Mountain...

These can all become popular topics of conversation among Zerg warriors.

Jin hitched a ride on the taro's coattails, and also benefited from his own lightning-type talent mutation, life sac mutation, the divinely bestowed seed of the Golden Leaf Vine, and the divinely bestowed seed of an oak tree unearthed from the Huangtan Mountain ruins.

Jin is also famous in the Flame Spider Kingdom; now, it can be said that everyone knows him.

Jin didn't like to work, and he didn't work at all in Sikui Mountain, but in the main territory of Yedian Mountain, Jin was particularly diligent and would rush to do any work he could.

The master of Wild Indigo Mountain praised the insect upon seeing it: "This little spider is clever. This little spider is not only talented, but also exceptionally hardworking. This little spider is down-to-earth and diligent..."

Naturally, Jin became an outstanding spider in the Flame Spider Kingdom, serving as a role model for other Flame Spider elders when disciplining younger spiders.

A good reputation will definitely bring benefits.

Sure enough, Lord Xiangluo took the initiative to come to us. Today she's offering to help with the work, and tomorrow she could be asking us to help process the divinely bestowed fruit.

There is trade between the insects of the two islands of Saluo and the island of Ivory. Presumably, within two years, the names of Jin and Yutou will spread throughout the tribes of Ivory Island.

Well-known

In the future, it will be much easier for Jin to travel to Ivory Island to seek transactions.

...

...

In early October,

Without warning, the golden-mouthed scorpion tail banana seed, which had completed its division and energy storage, sprouted 125 runners overnight, which were distributed evenly and in a staggered manner around the mother plant.

With the aid of growth capacity, the 125 newly grown divisions were fully developed in less than a month.

The Golden-Mouthed Scorpion-Tail Banana, a divinely bestowed seed, has reached an advanced level of growth, matching that of the Elephant Cattail.

Taro is only at the intermediate level, and its growth capacity greatly reduces the effectiveness of the high-level divinely bestowed seed.

The master of Wild Indigo Mountain was not stingy; if the quality wasn't good enough, he would make up for it with quantity, releasing 20 seeds each morning and evening to continue accumulating energy for flowering and fruiting next year.

...

The wheel of time turns rapidly.

12 month 15 day,
dusk.

The master of Red Cone Mountain arrived at Thousand Fruit Mountain on time to take Jin and Taro back to Silk Sunflower Mountain.

"Goodbye, Lord of Wild Indigo Mountain, Elephant Cattail, Sky Blue. I will definitely visit you at Thousand Fruit Mountain when I have time."

Kim officially bid farewell.

"Whoosh~ La la~"

The taro also shook its leaves, reluctantly bidding farewell to the divinely bestowed seed of the Golden-Mouthed Scorpiontail Banana.

The work to assist the growth of the divinely bestowed seed of the Golden-Mouthed Scorpiontail Banana is complete. I will not be returning unless there is something important to attend to.

"Goodbye~"

Sky Blue flapped its wings in farewell, equally reluctant to part.

Lord Wild Indigo Mountain earnestly urged them to stay, saying, "Red Cone, Gold, and Silk Sunflower Mountain, is there anything urgent? Wouldn't it be better if you rested for the night and set off again tomorrow morning?"

Xiang Pu chimed in, "We've prepared all the food. Let's sit down, eat, drink, and chat."

"I'm not eating anymore. No need."

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain waved his claws repeatedly and said, "There really is an urgent matter at Silk Sunflower Mountain. As I told you, the little Flame Spider Silver, which nurtured the seed bestowed by the Oak Tree God, is about to molt and evolve. The Lord of Silk Sunflower Mountain is busy and can't handle it all, so I'm taking Jin back to help guard it."

Upon hearing this, Lord Ye Dianshan and Xiang Pu knew they could say no more.

The master of Red Cone Mountain instructed: "Xiangpu, it's all settled. In the future, the fruits produced by the divinely bestowed seed of Golden Mouth Scorpion Tail Banana will be traded to Jin at a fair price."

“I remember, no problem!” Xiang Pu solemnly agreed.

The Red Cone Mountain Master said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, you won't suffer any losses."

Jin also said solemnly, "Then I thank Xiangpu for his help."

"You're welcome."

Xiang Pu gently nodded his antennae in response.

The Golden-Mouthed Scorpion-Tail Banana's divine seed enhancement effect is a comprehensive enhancement of metal abilities. The Lord of Wild Indigo Mountain can eat it all; the annual yield is enough, and any further consumption will reduce the effect.

Both Xiangpu and Tianlan have awakened metal talents, but they need to evolve to the Mountain Lord level to consume them. They won't be able to use them in the short term, and even if they evolve to the Mountain Lord level, two years' worth of production will be enough.

Therefore, starting the year after next, the yield of the divinely bestowed seeds of the Golden-Mouthed Scorpion-Tail Banana can be exchanged for gold.

Of course, this is contingent on Jin successfully cracking the passwords to the gene-agent storage boxes unearthed at the Cyathea Mountain ruins on Ivory Island and obtaining a sufficient number of boxes.

…The Red Cone Mountain Master, carrying gold and taro, traveled day and night, rushing back to Silk Sunflower Mountain.

Yin couldn't wait any longer. After a quick tidying up, she went to sleep in her bedroom in the cave on the north side of the mountain at dawn.

The Golden and Red Cone Mountains are guarded by the Lord.

Lord Sikui stayed with the mountain for the whole morning and, seeing that the fluctuations of the primal force were stable and there were no problems, went about his normal work in the afternoon.

Three days later,
Silver awoke from its slumber, successfully molted and evolved, and violently pushed aside the blocking firewood, rushing out with a cheer.

"Alright! Alright! The divinely ordained seed has successfully conceived!"

"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go down the mountain!"

"Sowing! Sowing! Sowing..."

Silver was in a hurry to rush out of the cave, but Gold used his spider silk rope to pull him back.

"silver!"

The Lord of Red Cone Mountain scolded, "Don't be careless! You're weak after just completing your evolution, so you need to eat to replenish yourself. Jin and I will go down the mountain, clear the land, till the soil, and irrigate it to prepare for your sowing."

"I……"

Yin wanted to say something.

Jin Cai wouldn't tolerate it. He controlled the spider silk rope and lashed it like a whip, striking its back twice. "Eat up!"

"..."

Yin quieted down.

Jin and the Red Cone Mountain Lord descended the mountain, first finding the Silk Sunflower Mountain Lord, who was busy distributing food to ordinary Flame Spiders halfway up the mountain, to report the situation, and then went down the mountain to select a plot of land...

The Shannan territory is divided into nine large plots, each 500 meters on each side, by irrigation canals. These plots are simply numbered, from west to east and north to south, as plots 01 to 09.

If it were a normal seedling, nine seedlings could be planted on such a plot of land.

If it is a seed given by God, only one seed can be planted on a piece of land.

The three plots of land closest to Mount Silk Sunflower are occupied by one each of Pokeweed and Golden Leaf Vine, which are rooted in plots 01 and 02 respectively.

In the early stages of the game, Silver's nine ordinary life-species plants filled plot 03.

Plot 03 is located south of Plot 06.

After a thorough investigation and brief discussion, Jin and the owner of Hongzhui Mountain selected plot number 06.

Jin manipulated spider silk, cleared away nearby weeds, and turned over the soil on top of the mound.

The head of the Red Cone Mountain team went back and forth to fetch water for irrigation, thoroughly soaking the entire mound in one go.

Not finished yet,

Yin then ran down and joined in, quickly completing the sowing preparations.

Dig a hole, put in the seeds, fill it with soil, and finally pour in a small bucket of fertilizer solution.

At midnight, the master of Sikui Mountain finished his work and rushed over, and together they stood guard at the foot of the mound.

At dawn, the seed pods in the soil crack open, roots grow rapidly, and cotyledons break through the soil, slowly unfolding in the morning light.

New seedlings grow rapidly by consuming the nutrients and energy stored in their cotyledons.

Around mid-morning, the first true leaf unfolded.

Around noon, the second true leaf unfolded.

Silver took a raw stone, lay down beside it, and gently rubbed it, carefully replenishing its primal energy.

In one day, the plant reaches a height of more than 20 centimeters, the fifth and sixth true leaves unfold, the cotyledons wither and die after exhausting their nutrients, and the growth rate slows down accordingly.

"Is it okay?"

Yin Chuan conveyed his inquiry through mental energy.

Lord Sikui Mountain, who had considerable experience in sowing divinely bestowed seeds, said, "It's ready. Yin, you should guard it carefully. In half a month to a month, it will soon grow into a sapling."

"Understood……"

Silver raised its paw and suggested, "Shouldn't we give it a proper name?"

The Lord of Sikui Mountain said, "Jin, you dug up this divinely bestowed seed. Give it a name."

"OK……"

Jin pondered for a moment, then said, "The divinely bestowed seed cultivated by the alien civilization is confirmed to be an oak tree, but we can't identify the specific species. Let's just use a general term... Oak? It's a water-based primal energy, and the seed is black, so let's name it 'Black Oak'."

"That's a nice name!"

Silver exclaimed, "My seed, the Black Oak God's gift!"
