Natural God's Gift

#75 - Life Stone

“A very strange thing,” the Purple Cloud Mountain Master said, handing the crystal to the Green Field Mountain Master for inspection.

The Green Field Mountain Master took the crystal and studied it carefully: “It possesses a very powerful life force, but it seems the Zerg cannot absorb it.”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master gestured: “Look at your feet.”

The Green Field Mountain Master looked down and saw that the grass underfoot had grown a little taller than the surrounding grass in a short period.

“It has the ability to promote plant growth?” The Torch Mountain Master took the crystal from the Green Field Mountain Master's claw to examine it: “No wonder so many duckweeds grow in that lake, but what about those God-Given duckweed seeds?”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “I'm not quite sure either. I guess there are two possibilities. One is that the life force emitted by the crystal is too strong, causing the number of duckweeds to explode. With sufficient nutrients and a large number, the probability of random birth increases, and the probability of premature death also decreases.

The second possibility is that, similarly, because the life force contained in the lake is too strong, the probability of mutant strains occurring also increases with the explosion in the number of duckweeds, greatly increasing the probability of obtaining a Law God-Given. It may be a combination of both probabilities that caused this situation.

“Okay,” the Green Field Mountain Master wasn't too concerned about a few God-Given duckweed seeds. It was more concerned about another issue:

“Can this life crystal be used on large trees? Is there a chance it will cause large trees to mutate?”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master shook its pedipalps in denial: “The probability is not high. The nutrients required for tree growth are much greater than the requirements for duckweed. A billion duckweeds are not as good as a single large tree. The possibility of inducing large tree mutation is extremely small.”

However, it didn't say anything definitively: “I don't understand this thing very well either. After the merchant trip, I can take it back to show the King-level God-Given seeds in the clan. They have lived a long time and know enough about the creations of various extraterrestrial civilizations.”

At this time, the little spiders also ran to the big spiders. They eagerly climbed onto the Torch Mountain Master: “Torch Mountain Master, a good treasure? Let us take a look too.”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master took the warm golden crystal from the Torch Mountain Master's claw: “Torch, take the extraterrestrial civilization creation to wash it. We will seal this crystal and take it back to the kingdom for verification.”

“Okay,” the Torch Mountain Master agreed, neatly holding the box of extraterrestrial civilization creations to find a pool to wash away the dirt.

The warm golden crystal was taken away by the Purple Cloud Mountain Master, and the little spiders hurriedly climbed down from the Torch Mountain Master's back.

The little spiders raised their four claws and looked up at the Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “Purple Cloud Mountain Master, let us take a look too.”

Green Field Mountain Master: “Little spiders, don't make trouble, go back to rest.”

Four-Leaf widened its eight eyes: “We're not making trouble, just taking a look.”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master handed the warm golden crystal to Four-Leaf: “Then I'll let you take a look and then go back to rest.”

“Okay!” Four-Leaf happily hugged the round crystal, and the other little spiders also gathered around it to look at it, but the mountain masters of the merchant team couldn't see what use this thing had. What could the little spiders see? It was just joining in the fun.

The little spiders played with it for a while. Seeing the grass on the ground absorb the life force overflowing from the crystal and grow rapidly, Four-Leaf looked up at the Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “Purple Cloud Mountain Master, if this grass can absorb life force to grow, can the life seed absorb life force to grow too?”

“Uh,” the Purple Cloud Mountain Master couldn't be sure about this question. No one knew if this warm golden crystal in the extraterrestrial civilization creation had other side effects. The life seed was closely related to the Zerg warriors. If something went wrong with the life seed, the Zerg warriors would basically be finished. No one dared to use their own life seed to experiment.

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “Let's wait until we take it back to the kingdom and let Lord Ginkgo and the others take a look.”

Green Field suddenly had a thought: “Purple Cloud, do you think it looks very similar to the ten-colored gemstones in the Star Realm?”

“Ten-colored gemstones?” The Purple Cloud Mountain Master recalled carefully and found that the two were indeed somewhat similar.

The Star Realm has all kinds of minerals, some of which contain Primal Energy and are called ten-colored gemstones by the Zerg.

Strictly speaking, ten-colored gemstones are a small branch of Primal Stones, but unlike Primal Stones, which can be used by all plants and Zerg, ten-colored gemstones have attributes. They are only suitable for Zerg or plants of the same attribute and function similarly to Primal Energy food.

Among the ten-colored gemstones, there is a rather rare chalcedony, which enhances plant life force, but its effect is worlds apart compared to the crystal in the Purple Cloud Mountain Master's claw.

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “It's possible, but not certain. To be safe, let Lord Ginkgo and the others take a look after we return to the kingdom.”

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master stretched out its claw: “Okay, hand over the thing. I'm going to pack it up.”

“Okay.” Four-Leaf obediently returned the warm golden crystal to the Purple Cloud Mountain Master.

The Torch Mountain Master washed the metal box and handed it to the Purple Cloud Mountain Master. It put the warm golden crystal back in the box and closed it. Peony suddenly said: “Purple Cloud Leader, this is the treasure you discovered. Why don't you give it a name?”

Peony echoed, nodding its spider head: “Yes, yes.”

Other Spiders: “…”

Purple Cloud Mountain Master: “…”

Did it look like such a shameless spider?

Dragon Sprout and Iron Wire reacted and also flattered: “This extraterrestrial treasure really needs a good name. Purple Cloud Mountain Master, please give it a name.”

Peony: “I think it's better to call it Purple Cloud Crystal. It sounds good and is easy to say.”

Torch and Green Field looked at Peony with disdain. This little fellow was a bit shameless. The flattery was too obvious, and the important thing was that it didn't flatter itself.

Dragon Sprout and Iron Wire looked at Peony with a gratified expression, as if to say, this little fellow has potential and is a spider who can do great things.

As for the two little fellows, Bai Zhi and Four-Leaf, they were ignorant and didn't know anything.

“Uh,” the Purple Cloud Mountain Master felt that directly calling it Purple Cloud Crystal was too obvious, and it would be embarrassed to say it in front of Lord Ginkgo and the others in the future. It wasn't shameless to that extent.

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master pondered for a moment and said: “Since it has the life force to make plants grow quickly and may cause ordinary plants to mutate into God-Given seeds, why not call it the Life Godstone?”

“Good,”

“The name is really good,”

“Purple Cloud Mountain Master is amazing.” Dragon Sprout and Iron Wire waved their pedipalps and praised mindlessly.

The Torch Mountain Master shook its pedipalps slightly and said to the Green Field Mountain Master with dissatisfaction: “The atmosphere of our merchant team is distorted.

The original simple style is gone forever. Why don't we elect me as the leader? I want to severely rectify this unhealthy trend!”

The Green Field Mountain Master glared sideways: “Do you want to be praised by the little warriors yourself?”

The Torch Mountain Master was full of innocence: “Green Field, how can you think of me like that?”

“Okay, okay,” the Purple Cloud Mountain Master interrupted the conversation between the two spiders: “Go to rest quickly. We have to reach the next large tribe within fifteen days. Don't affect your mental state.”

“Purple Cloud Mountain Master, wait for me,” Four-Leaf wouldn't be silly enough to run by itself this time. There was a considerable distance from the open space to the cave, and the little spiders couldn't run that fast.

The little spiders climbed onto its carapace one after another and were taken back to the cave by the Purple Cloud Mountain Master.

“Purple Cloud Mountain Master, what about this God-Given duckweed seed?” Back in the cave, it was still unknown how to deal with the sprouted God-Given duckweed seed. It was definitely impossible to take it with them. They had to travel to so many places. Carrying it on their carapace might kill it one day.

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master thought for a while and said: “I think this cave we are staying in is also relatively humid. Look for pools or something inside. We can plant it here first and take it back when we return to the kingdom.”

The cave was only thirty to forty meters deep, and the spiders searched it casually.

They didn't find a pool, but they found a dripping crack in the rock. The Torch Mountain Master directly used its earth-based ability under the dripping crack to forcibly create a two-to-three-meter-sized pool. As long as the crack kept dripping water, the pool could accumulate one or two cubic meters of water.

This might not be enough for other plants, but it was more than enough for the God-Given duckweed.

The Purple Cloud Mountain Master activated its fertile soil ability to create a small piece of fertile soil and pour it into the pool, and also dropped a few Primal Stones to ensure the Primal Energy inside.

Peony poured the few remaining water from the empty can into the pool and planted the God-Given duckweed. Next, they just had to wait for the water from the crack to drip down and fill the stone pool. After the merchant team left, they would seal the cave, and no one would know that there would be a God-Given seed inside.

“I will also take out the other God-Given seeds to dry.” Four-Leaf unfastened its spider silk bag and took out the God-Given duckweed seeds inside. These God-Given seeds had absorbed enough water in the spring. If the merchant team hadn't found them, they would probably all sprout in a few days.

Four-Leaf put them at the entrance of the cave to dry out the water in the seeds so that they could be preserved for a long time.
