Astral Ants

Molan and Cai Gang, who were going to the Honeysuckle star system to deliver goods, calculated their time and returned on time when the cypress seeds were ripe.

Xia Li hurriedly left with Cai Gang and Wang Baizi, heading to the Baxiang star system to reunite with Lord Xiange.

Forty years later,
The five insects, Xia Li, Cai Gang, Si Shu, Lan Ying and Zi, came as a team.

Let's enter the dimensional world space carried by the Cork Oak Star Spider and talk together.

"Longbai! Molan! You two are too disloyal, aren't you?"

"You hid it from us for a hundred thousand years!"

"Arrange one for Lan Ying as soon as possible. In the last Daylight Sea Arena, it was already in the top 300!"

Zi was extremely dissatisfied and said, "You have to give me one!"

"Okay! Okay! Okay!"

"Don't make any noise!"

Molan agreed: "I'll give one to you and Boss Lanying for free."

"That's pretty much it."

"Molan is still generous."

"It must be the cypress ants who kept me from telling you. Otherwise, Molan would have told me long ago."

Zi Xizi said happily: "That's good now. In the next Daylight Sea Arena, I'm sure to be in the top 300. I'm also the strongest warrior in the universe!"

"Come on, Zi. Cut the crap and stop daydreaming."

Lan Ying scolded him for a few words and said seriously, "Let's talk about business."

Sishu opened the spider silk bag he was holding and handed it to Longbai, saying, "Space Cubes, 10 in total. Great Chief Longbai, I'll lend them to you. Later, when we have enough 10 Law Fruits, we can trade them once."

Xia Li continued, "The flowering and fruiting cycle of the Great King Cypress at the Star Realm level is 111 years, so 10 of them would be 1110 years, which is just the right amount of time. We have communicated with the White Crystal Divine Tree, and it takes at least 107 years for the White Crystal Divine Tree to produce White Crystal Fruit at the Star Realm level. The efficiency is about the same."

Sishu said, "Let's exchange first. Later, if Baiwei Chamber of Commerce acts as an intermediary, the Spacetime Cube will be lent to President Baiwei. Please ask President Baiwei to deliver it to the Baxiang star system regularly. Xia Li and I will go there on time to take over."

Xia Li: "It just so happens that our Holy Butterfly tribe needs both Giant Dragon Bamboo Fruit and Rosary Beans. Cross-galaxy voyages are too time-consuming, so we can consider asking President Bai Wei to do it for us."

Sishu asked, "Captain Longbai, what do you think?"

"President Bai Wei and I also planned this."

Seeing that Sishu was extremely excited, Long Bai couldn't help but ask, "President Sishu, you won't also resign as the president and join Xia Li..."

Four Numbers: "Yes. This is a task assigned by the White Crystal Divine Tree himself!"

Xia Li: "A small fortune. Make a small fortune. Actually, we are not doing this for the sake of getting rich."

"..."

Long Bai was speechless.

"what?"

"what's up?"

Molan and Zi asked curiously.

Long Bai didn't speak.

Sishu and Xia Li looked at each other.

Judging from tens of thousands of years of interaction, Molan and Caigang are still very reliable.

Zi is a guy who spreads everything around the world, so you can't tell it.

Four shouted: "Cork Oak, send Zi out of the space..."

...

The exchange of law fruits was agreed upon.

For Long Bai, the focus is not on the exchange of rules, but on taking this opportunity to find Si Shu and Xia Li to borrow world gems worth 6000 billion original crystals.

All in all, the eleven-story royal nest of the Short-Handled Horn Tree is dotted with nearly 1.2 trillion worth of world gems numbering nearly , and the energy of all living beings has also reached an ultra-high concentration that is beyond the limit of the dragon cypress's absorption and digestion rate.

...

Sishu, Xiali and Lanying said goodbye and left.

Zi and Cai were unable to enter the third-level source point, so Molan accompanied them to the Honeysuckle star system to wait for the Wangbaizi to mature.

Longbai stayed alone in Xianglan Mountain.

70 years later, a royal cypress tree is ripe and ready to be harvested.

Cai just finished eating and left.

111 years later,

After Zi ate the second Wangbaizi, he waited another 111 years and got the third one before leaving.

Molan then calmed down and stayed at Xianglan Mountain, meditating in silence.

...

...

The years are long.

[78th Century - 198th Yuan - 071th Year]

It took 1110 years to collect the first batch of 10 royal cypress seeds.

Sishu and Xia Li arrived on time and also brought 10 white crystal fruits. The two sides completed the first exchange.

After a brief greeting, Sishu and Xia Li left.
After following Molan's earnest instructions and stern warnings, Longbai packed up and prepared to leave.

"Long Bai..."

Bai Bo, who was rooted at the foot of the mountain, lowered his spiritual power and called out, "Long Bai, are you going back to Shuye Star?"

"of course."

"The White Crystal Fruit should be given priority to Prince Zuo?"

"For this batch of white crystal fruits, King Zuo only arranged juniper and spade."

"Then how do they practice their rebirth abilities?"

"The White Crystal God-Given Seed from Huangtao Mountain should have evolved into the Star Realm. It is essentially a universal carrier of rebirth."

"One tree? Isn't that enough? How about I go back with you? Juniper or Spade can use me as a carrier to be reborn. It's just right, so I can feel the power of death and rebirth more clearly."

"Forehead……"

The life system is divided into four categories: life, vitality, growth, and death.

The life-extending ability of Barberry is purely life-related.

It is quite difficult for a single type of power of a single life system to evolve upwards, as there is an upper limit, so Baibo also comprehended the category of 'death'.

The essence of the "rebirth" of the White Crystal Divine Tree is the sublimation of the life and death forces of the life and water systems.

Reincarnation with the help of the seeds bestowed by Baibo God is undoubtedly the best "demonstration" and "teaching" for Baibo.

Long Bai hadn't paid attention to the growth and evolution of his Force plants for a long time, and had never thought about this problem. He said depressedly:
"Bai Bo, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, you would have stayed in Xianglan Mountain."

Bai Bo said quietly, "I came to see the third-level source point. It doesn't take much time."

"……All right."

Longbai waved his tentacles to signal, "You gather the tree's heart. Don't worry. I'll wait for you."

I waited another three months.

After everything was packed, Longbai set off in the Tubber.

...

...

The half-ant artist carried Longbai and teleported to the foot of the mountain.

The place where the white barberry once took root was occupied by a silver cypress seed given by God.

"Who are you?"

The God-given Silver Cypress seed, which was at the King level, was frightened by the sudden appearance of the giant ant and questioned it vigilantly.

"..."

Longbai replied: "My name is Longbai."

"Long Bai?"

"Oh!"

"I know you. The cypress ant king, the ant boss."

The Silver Cypress God-given seed was relieved upon hearing this, and muttered, "Scare me to death!"

Longbai asked, "What's your name?"

Silver cypress god-given seeds: "Fourteen cypresses."

——This name is really straightforward.

——Unknowingly, the number of God-given silver cypress seeds has reached fourteen?
Long Bai secretly sighed in his heart and asked:
"Just evolved to the King level not long ago?"

"It's been quite a while, more than a hundred years. I heard that you have settled in the third-level source star system?"

"Yes."

"I heard that if we evolve to the Half-Star Realm, we can move there as well?"

"certainly……"

The ants in the surrounding area were restless, and the information was passed layer by layer and soon reached King Zuo.

Upon hearing the news, the assistant kings rushed over.

Bai Liu, who was patrolling at high altitude, also discovered Long Bai's trace and landed vertically.

After a lively greeting,

Long Bai waved his claws to signal the several little Zuo Wangs who were crowded around him to move aside. The space in front of him rippled slightly, and 5 time and space cubes floated in front of him.

"Two things. First, we started exchanging the Law Fruits with the White Crystal Chamber of Commerce ahead of time. This is the first batch of exchange, 10 White Crystal Fruits."

"One for Juniper and one for Spade. The others will be the next batch or the next batch, in the order of first generation, second generation, and third generation."

"Wow!"

"Great!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"The great king is mighty!"

Juniper and Spade were ecstatic, jumping and cheering, and they grabbed the two time and space cubes first.

"Be quiet!"

Longbai scolded, and then said: "White willow, white rice, white sedge, red maple, red sedge, ghost fan, nebula cypress, mulberry, one each."

"Don't worry if you didn't get one. We'll exchange 30 every ten thousand years, and there will be more later."

"White willow, red sedge, mulberry, go and use them quickly."

Longbai waved its tentacles lightly, dividing the remaining three time and space cubes in front of the three insects.

"Ok."

"Thank you, Dragon Cypress Ant King."

The three insects expressed their gratitude.

There are 5 white crystal fruits left.

Among them, Smilax glabra, Red maple, Ghost fan, and Nebula cypress are all in the Cod Material Group, organizing the construction work, and Longbai will personally deliver it over later.

Baifan is in the Shenmu star system. You can send Juniper to notify him and come back.

"And the second thing..."

Longbai said helplessly, "Bai Bo went to visit the Fengyan star system, and then it came back. Hei Tao, Bicolor Chamomile, you plan a suitable place for Bai Bo to take root."

Longbai explained and instructed, "Juniper, Spade, you two will take turns to be reborn with the help of Baibo's divine seed. It is best to die within the range of Baibo's spiritual power. This way, you can help Baibo comprehend the power of death. Do you understand?"

"..."

"Oh……"

"understand……"

"What is Shirako doing?"

"Moving it back and forth. Isn't this just a waste of time?"

"How much time will be wasted, how much fruit will be lost, and how much original crystal will be lost?"

"..."

Longbai raised his paw to stop him, urging him, "That's enough. We don't rely on the divine seeds given by God to make a fortune now. Bicolor Chamomile, you arrange a suitable place for Baibo to take root."

The five insects that were given the white crystal fruit returned to their living caves and began to use it, sleeping and digesting it.

The other insects followed the arborvitae and the bicolor chamomile, found a suitable place, and settled the heart of the white barberry tree.

...

Half a month later,
Sang woke up first and went straight to the Life Seed, starting to condense a rebirth cocoon. White Willow, Red Sedge, Juniper, and Black Spade woke up one after another.

Bai Liu and Hong Xi were the first to find their life seed.

Juniper moved quickly and ran straight to the Baiwei Chamber of Commerce's Baijing God-given tree. Without saying a word, he lay down on the trunk and began to gather strength to condense a cocoon.

"..."

Spade arrived shortly afterwards and asked, "One Life, can you carry two cocoons at the same time?"

"I don't know! How should I know?"

Yiming's tone was very impatient.

Yi Ming is the god-given seed of the Baiwei Chamber of Commerce. He lives parasitically on Xianglan Mountain. He grew up surrounded by the life seeds of the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce. He has a somewhat introverted personality and does not like to communicate.

"..."

Spade turned his head and looked at Longbai.

Longbai: "Heitao, the trunk is big enough, you can try to condense a cocoon."

"Ok."

Spade agreed and took action.

After nearly seven thousand years of growth, the Baiwei Chamber of Commerce's white crystal tree named "One Life", a gift from God, has grown to a height of more than four hundred meters, with a trunk that is fifty to sixty meters thick.

Two cocoons can accommodate them completely, the question is whether they can be supported...

quickly,

The cocoon is complete.

The calming feeling is a bit of a burden.

Star spots shone on Longbai's forehead, and the original energy unfolded along with the mental power. The ability of "Boundless Mountains and Seas, Infinite True Realm" overlapped with the territory.

With one thought, the fruits on the life tree fell one after another.

"???"

One life shouted angrily, "Big ant, what are you doing?"

Long Bai said calmly: "One life, you don't need to bloom and bear fruit, just help to feed two cocoons, I will directly compensate Baiwei Chamber of Commerce for the loss with the original crystal, and give you an extra source gem."

Yiming thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to compensate Baiwei Chamber of Commerce. Just give me the source gems in exchange."

"……Row."

Long Bai didn't waste any time and agreed directly.

After waiting for a while,
Juniper completes the coagulation of the rebirth cocoon.

"My king, I'm fast! I'll go first! I'll die first!"

The juniper was delighted, jumping up and down and shouting, afraid that the spade on the trunk would jump down and compete with it.

This idiot...

Long Bai didn't waste any words. His mind turned, and the force of heaven and earth gathered, compressed, and continuously pressurized along with the air.

Juniper screamed in agony as his body was shattered and exploded by the terrifying pressure.

The cocoon on the reserved tree trunk began to extract the original energy and vitality of a life, while madly absorbing the natural force to form a vacuum.

As soon as Long Bai thought about it, the Force in the territory gathered faster. A large number of insignificant plants and animals died, and the vitality turned into silk threads that connected and infused the cocoons.

It lasted for a while.
The oval cocoon expanded to more than three meters in length, and the juniper emerged from it.

"Your Majesty..."

"Alive?"

Juniper was still horrified.

"No problem. Juniper, go eat and recover first."

Longbai waved his claws to drive him away, turned his head and said, "Heitao, you try it."

"……OK."

Spade requested, "My Lord, please give me a quick and easy way to die."

With a wave of its tentacles, the air turned into wind blades, cutting off Spade's head with ease.

The cocoon attached to the main trunk of a life began to move, and began to extract energy and vitality, while frantically absorbing the force of nature...

He screamed, "Damn it! Ants! I can't take it anymore! It's killing me~"

"Don't make noise! ​​It won't kill you."

"Ant! Your job is terrible! You need to pay more!"

"Hey! Are you still raising the price? Are you looking for a thief?"

"Ouch~ I can't take it anymore~ I'm dying~ I'm dying~ Look, your little ant is dying~"

"..."

Long Bai's eyes focused, and the force of heaven and earth gathered faster and faster. The animals and plants in the territory died on a large scale, and the corpses left by the spades on the ground turned into powder.

The vast original energy and vitality are injected into the cocoon, while the vitality of all living beings is mobilized to assist.

The cocoon expands rapidly and completes rebirth in just three to five seconds.

Spades: "..."

Long Bai said: "The evolution level of a life is a bit low. It will take at least three days to recuperate after being resurrected."

"We can also reserve cocoons on the tree trunks. Spade, you and Juniper take turns practicing your abilities. You should also go and rest."

"Okay. Your Majesty."

Spade leaves.

Longbai's attention was diverted while Sang, Bailiu and Hongsi were busy forming cocoons.

This process is quite energy-consuming.

Zerg warriors have up to 54 life seeds, which takes a lot of time.

Long Bai withdrew his mental strength, put away his abilities, and returned to the ant nest to rest.

...

It takes time for the white barberry to take root and regenerate, and to resume its growth.

For the time being, Spade and Juniper can only be reborn with the help of the White Crystal God-given Seed.

This brings up a problem. What if something unexpected happens to a single rebirth cocoon, or if we forget to condense the cocoon in a hurry, wouldn't we die and never be able to come back to life?

Spades is a meticulous person who won't make stupid mistakes.

But with Juniper's brain, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be mistakes if it repeats itself too many times.

Longbai was worried about Juniperus, so he stayed at Xianglan Mountain.

At the same time, he was not idle either, and he cultivated an additional thirty-six seventh-generation Rain Master Ant Assistant Kings.

These assistant kings were arranged to go to the Aquamarine star system to manage their territories; secondly, they were to prepare for the expansion of the Force food trade after Baiwei Lizhu returned from the star system.

...

After fifty years, the height of the tree trunk gifted by the White Barberry God once again exceeded 300 meters.

Juniper and Spade each left a resurrection cocoon in the tree trunk of the White Crystal God-given seed, and then took turns to revive using the White Barberry God-given seed as a carrier. This way, there would be no hidden danger of failure to revive due to mistakes.

Long Bai left with peace of mind.

First, go to the Azure and Ocean Blue star systems, as well as the Hanging Bell star system operated by the Boshu Bay Chamber of Commerce for an inspection.

Then go to the cod material group to check the progress of the project, and at the same time send the white crystal fruit to the red maple and other insects.

Then he returned to Fenglun Star and continued to meditate.

...

[78th Century - 199th Yuan - 182th Year]

The second batch of 10 Wangbaizi were collected.

Sishu and Xia Li arrived on time and completed the exchange.

Longbai was sent back to the Bauhinia star system as soon as possible, and arranged for the use of five assistant kings, namely Juniper, Cedar, Giant Cypress, Green Cypress, and Silver Cypress, as well as five Zerg warriors, namely Blackberry, Palm, Black Rice, Green Maple, and Mountain Persimmon.

...

Seeing that the life planet on the side of the cod material group was about to be built, Bai Wei and his party who were on a long journey for trade had not yet returned.

Longbai was a little worried, so he simply stayed on Shuye Star.

There is only one life plant and one white crystal sacred tree, which are not enough to resurrect King Zuo.

Longbai used the ability of 'Boundless Mountains and Seas, Infinite Realm' to assist, killing, resurrecting, killing, resurrecting, and tempering them repeatedly to help them deeply experience death and rebirth.

Time flies,

[Time: 78th Era-199 Yuan-472 Years]

Finally one day,
The Xiaolongbai, carrying the four insects Baiwei, Hongtao, Tianjie and Chandou, ran into the territory in a dusty state.

"President Bai Wei? What are you doing..."

"Hey, let's go back to the White Crystal Galaxy. We took turns driving the Star Spider. We ran back in one breath and our Force was completely exhausted."

Baiwei, Tianjie and Chandou look for a place, quickly release their life seeds, take root, grow and absorb the force.

Longbai's "Infinite Mountains and Seas, Infinite Realm" has been unfolding and overlapping with the territory. With a thought, the natural force gathered and the concentration exceeded 3.0
"what!"

"Captain Longbai, is this your ability?"

"Yes. It's a long story."

"Juniper, Cedar, Spade, are you practicing your rebirth abilities?"

"Yes. We have exchanged two batches of 20 white crystal fruits through Sishu and Xiaju."

"Juniper, cedar, go and prepare the food."

"President Bai Wei, how about you guys? Did the transaction go smoothly? This trip took you more than 6500 years?"

"It went smoothly. But the trade of rosary beans and peach fruit took a lot of time as we waited for the fruit to be harvested."

As Bai Wei spoke, the ninth spatial pupil on her forehead flashed, 12 time and space cubes appeared, and a small spider silk bag floated towards Long Bai.

"4 Star Realm-level giant dragon bamboo fruits and 6 rosary beans."

"There are also two peach blossom fruits. We exchanged them with giant dragon bamboo fruits in a 2:1 ratio, and promised to exchange them with king cypress seeds next time."

"Seven beads have been exchanged in total, and one of the red hearts has been eaten."

"There is also a Dragon Bamboo Crystal."

"Oh--"

"Great!"

"President Bai Wei is so awesome!"

"Thank you for your hard work, President Bai Wei."

The insects cheered.

Juniper was impatient and raised his claws, eager to try.

Long Bai opened them one by one and checked them, then gave a simple instruction:

"Juniper, take a giant dragon bamboo fruit and a rosary bean. You can also use the dragon bamboo crystal."

"Spade takes a giant dragon bamboo fruit, a rosary bean, and a peach fruit."

"Red maple leaves will transform as soon as possible, and I will arrange a giant dragon bamboo fruit and a rosary bean."

"Mao Mei is preparing for the next Daylight Sea Arena Battle. I have arranged a giant dragon bamboo fruit and a rosary bean."

"There is still one peach fruit left. Let's give it to Heiti first."

"There are two rosary beans left, which the Second King and I used."

Simply allocated,
The double pupil on Bai Wei's forehead lit up slightly, and 12 more time and space cubes floated out, saying:

"We met the Bloodstock Lord of the Lizhu Chamber of Commerce, who led a war army. After discussion, we borrowed 11 more Space-Time Cubes from him. Qingyuan borrowed 11 last time, plus the 2 from the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce, we now have a total of 24 Space-Time Cubes in our claws!"

"very good!"

Long Bai said: "The Holy Butterfly Tribe also lent us 10 Spacetime Cubes. Combined, we now have 34. The next time we go to the Lizhu Star System for a trade, we can deliver 34 Law Fruits!"

"Great!"

Bai Wei was surprised and said, "The main reason why the Golden Turtle Tribe wants to exchange for the king cypress seeds is that they will exchange as many as they can. I am just worried that we don't have enough time and space cubes."

After Bai Wei finished speaking, she asked with some concern, "Captain Longbai, how did you negotiate the deal with the Baijing Chamber of Commerce?"

"Don't worry, we have already negotiated, and your Baiwei Chamber of Commerce will be the intermediary. This is an internal exchange within this galaxy, so there is no hard work fee. However, you have a chance to exchange for the White Crystal Fruit."

Long Bai looked at Zeqi and said, "President Bai Wei, a lot of things have happened in the six thousand years since you left. The most important thing is that I have discussed with President Zeqi and decided to take over part of the star system construction project..."

Go to the lakeside for dinner, inform each other, tell each other,
Bai Wei encountered a lot of things on this trip, and it took her most of the day to finish telling her story.

The four Baiwei insects returned to Huangtao Mountain to rest first.

The cypress, juniper, spade and other insects began to use the law fruit. (End of this chapter)
