Natural God's Gift

Mountain Master Huzhang paused slightly upon hearing Lord Qingfeng's words: "Is there anything else?"

"Of course there is." Lord Qingfeng pointed to the four-leaf clover on its head: "Its third God-given Seed is a Terminalia corticosa, a medium-to-large tree that grows on beaches. Find a suitable mudflat, preferably close to where its current God-given Seed is planted, for easier care. Then, find Ziyun and the Watanabe Flame Spiders and have them use their earth-based abilities to modify it. Once Four-Leaf Clover evolves to the fourth instar, it can be directly planted."

"Alright," Mountain Master Huzhang was delighted. If it weren't for Four-Leaf Clover, Lord Qingfeng might not have made this big deal, and it wouldn't have received a reward. Now that it has received benefits, it is happy to run this errand, especially since it has many legs.

Lord Qingfeng then separated two hundred Blue Tear Algae Fruits: "Xuan Yu and Ban Xia are about to break through to the Mountain Master level. The Blue Tear Algae Fruit comprehensively strengthens the physique. Give each of them one hundred fruits, which will increase their chances of breaking through."

"Oh," With this, Lord Qingfeng would basically not earn any Origin Stones from this transaction. However, Mountain Master Huzhang did not say anything. Before the intermediate level, Zerg warriors are basically cultivated with the help of the kingdom.

After entering the advanced level, they must learn to be self-reliant. Then, advanced warriors with potential will receive a sum of Origin Stones from the kingdom when they are about to break through to the Mountain Master level to help them break through as smoothly as possible.

Once they reach the Mountain Master level, they must begin to give back to the kingdom appropriately, such as teaching young warriors and regularly providing evolution resources to young warriors. Lord Qingfeng providing resources to the warriors below from time to time is considered normal.

Of course, Lord Qingfeng is not completely providing resources for free. Doing these things is calculated as Origin Points within the kingdom. Origin Points are equivalent to Origin Stones. If Lord Qingfeng gives Xuan Yu and Ban Xia Origin Energy food worth 3,500 Origin Stones each, then its Origin Points within the clan will increase by 7,000. When Xuan Ye and Ban Xia are promoted to the Mountain Master level in the future, they will have to return Origin Energy food worth 3,850 Origin Stones to the clan, a small profit. However, the Flame Spider Kingdom is better in that the clan does not charge extra interest, nor is there a time limit. You can repay it after a year or after ten years.

The Origin Points accumulated by Lord Qingfeng are not useless. When it evolves its instar in the future, or prepares to break through to the King level, it can use Origin Points to exchange resources with the spiders in the kingdom. The purpose of doing this is to maximize the use of Origin Energy food within the kingdom.

The excess interest generated during the transaction between the two parties is not embezzled by the kingdom, but is used solely to cultivate young warriors. However, this type of trade similar to loans has little to do with young warriors. The kingdom will arrange how much Origin Energy food young warriors need to eat at each instar, how long it takes to evolve, what life seeds to plant, and when the life seeds can produce, basically ensuring that young warriors can smoothly evolve to advanced warriors.

As for Four-Leaf Clover accidentally owing so many Origin Stones, that is purely a special situation. After all, which young warrior has so many God-given Seeds? Moreover, the Origin Stones that Four-Leaf Clover owes Ziyun do not require interest. Even if it is repaid after thirty or fifty years after being promoted to the Mountain Master level, it only needs to repay the original Origin Stones.

Of course, it is undeniable that the Ziyun Merchant Troupe is willing to lend so many Origin Stones to Four-Leaf Clover, partly because of its Divine-quality God-given Seed. Otherwise, the debt might have to be transferred to Lord Qingfeng's head.

Mountain Master Huzhang controlled the spider silk thread and patted Four-Leaf Clover: "Four-Leaf Clover, are you going to find Ziyun and the others with me, or are you going back to the nest to rest?"

Hearing that they were going to find Ziyun, Four-Leaf Clover's spirits lifted a little: "Let's go find Ziyun and the others together. I haven't seen them for so many days. I wonder what they are doing?"

"Then let's go."

Four-Leaf Clover stood on Mountain Master Huzhang's head and pointed the direction: "Charge!"

… …

Watanabe Flame Spider Tribe Territory. While everyone else was hibernating or gathering in winter, the Ziyun Merchant Troupe did not rest. As long as they were willing to work in winter, there would be more work than in other seasons. At this moment, Ziyun, Torch, and Green Field were busy in their territory.

Ziyun, Torch, and Green Field stood in front of an empty stone pool about five meters long and wide and half a meter deep. Behind them were piles of stone boxes, each one cubic meter in size. The stone boxes were open to the sky, and each stone box was filled with various things. If you counted carefully, there were nearly a hundred stone boxes.

Ziyun directed Torch and Green Field to work: "Pour in two cubic meters of mud."

Torch and Green Field followed Ziyun's instructions, dragged out two stone boxes filled with mud from behind, and poured all two boxes of mud into the stone pool.

There is a river inside the Flame Spider Kingdom. After tens of thousands of years of accumulation, there is a lot of mud. This mud is what the Iridescent Flame Spiders dug from the bottom of the river and sold to them. The price is not very expensive, one Origin Stone per cubic meter. Many early and intermediate young warriors will dig mud for them in their spare time to earn extra money.

Ziyun then instructed: "Pour in 0.1 cubic meters of bone meal."

Torch poured one-tenth of a cubic meter of bone meal from another stone box into the stone pool.

"Rotten wood, pour in two-tenths of a cubic meter."

Green Field followed suit.

After they poured the things into the stone pool, Ziyun concentrated its mental power and activated its earth-based ability. The mud in the stone pool instantly rolled, and the viscous mud instantly swallowed, eroded, and integrated all the rotten wood and bone meal into the mud.

While activating its ability, Ziyun continued to instruct: "Two-tenths of a cubic meter of bird droppings, one-tenth of a cubic meter of animal droppings."

Torch and Green Field poured down the corresponding materials as instructed.

The soil in the stone pool continued to roll, and began to emit a somewhat pungent smell. Ziyun did not stop and continued to instruct: "Pour in another cubic meter of mud, half a cubic meter of shell powder, half a cubic meter of swamp water, one cubic meter of dry sand, and throw in twenty Origin Stones."

Various materials were successively poured into the stone pool. Ziyun's ability continued to play a role. The soil in the stone pool continued to roll. It was not until five or six minutes later that the original mud in the stone pool was stirred very loosely and delicately, and even a grain of broken sand could not be seen. It then stopped its ability.

In the stone pool, the dark and fluffy soil emitted a pungent smell. Ziyun stretched out its claws and kneaded the fineness of the soil inside, and also felt the weak Origin Energy fluctuations in it. It said with satisfaction: "These few cubic meters of fertile soil have been made. Torch, Green Field, pack them up and send them to Eight-Prism Mountain Master later."

"Okay," Torch agreed readily, and then asked: "Which type of Origin Energy food should we exchange for?"

This stone pool of fertile soil has about five cubic meters. It sells for fifty Origin Stones per cubic meter outside. Inside the Flame Spider Kingdom, it is discounted by 20% and can be sold for a price of two hundred Origin Stones, which is considered a small order.

Ziyun thought for a while and said: "We used five thousand Origin Stones for Four-Leaf Clover last time, and now we don't have enough Origin Stones in our reserves. Let's exchange for two hundred Origin Stones."

"Okay."

Torch and Green Field quickly scooped out the fertile soil from the stone pool, reloaded it into stone boxes, and packed it up. Then, they pushed out two more stone boxes containing mud and poured the mud inside into the stone pool.

After the news of their return at the end of the year spread, orders from within the Flame Spider Kingdom poured in. They had delayed a lot of time in the previous days because they were guarding Four-Leaf Clover's God-given Seed, and now they had to work overtime to get the goods out.

"Ziyun, are you busy?" Mountain Master Huzhang sent a mental message from afar, and without waiting for the spiders of the Ziyun Merchant Troupe to respond, he walked leisurely into the territory of the Watanabe Flame Spiders.

"Huzhang," Ziyun, Torch, and Green Field greeted him one after another.

Four-Leaf Clover stood on Mountain Master Huzhang's head and waved its small chelicerae excitedly: "Mountain Master Ziyun, Mountain Master Torch, Mountain Master Green Field, are you working?"
