Astral Ants

……

White Crystal Galaxy, Phoenix Eye Constellation.

Fenglun Star, North 4201 area.

Suddenly one day,
Shuangse Sang's mental power began to sweep, aiming at Mo Lan who was meditating in the mountain nest, and shouted with his mental power: "Mantis! Get up! Get up! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"!!!"

Molan jumped up with a start, and when her soul-calming ability sensed it, she became furious.

Two-color Sang: "Don't be nervous. I'm just kidding. It's okay. I'll let you know. It will be transformed soon."

"..."

"Two-color mulberry, is it OK? You know, if the Force Plant Transformation fails, the tree core will explode first, and then the Force Energy will be ignited, and even the roots underground will quickly turn into ashes... Be careful, don't let it explode."

"Mantis, you're the one that exploded!"

"You don't know how to be kind. I care about you."

"Don't be so sentimental. Who needs your concern? Stop talking nonsense. My breakthrough this time is very significant. Go and prepare a batch of raw crystals for emergency."

"Xiangbai, Cuibai, Heishi, the three of you, don't just stand there, get moving, go, organize the ant colony, and do a good job of defense..."

"..."

Just a dazzling change!

Level 3 source point, need original crystal for emergency?
Molan looked at the two-color mulberry and became more and more unhappy. After much thought, she decided to exchange 10 billion raw crystals for spot goods and arranged them into an arc-shaped raw crystal mountain range three kilometers away.

Cedar, Green Cypress and Black Persimmon commanded the ant colony and prepared for battle.

Upon hearing the news, the Zerg warriors who were retiring on Fenglun Star rushed to watch.

Preparations are complete,

At dusk, the two-color mulberry tree suddenly exploded. Every leaf on the more than 400-meter-high tree seemed to open its mouth wide, madly absorbing and devouring the surrounding Force, instantly forming a Force vacuum that quickly spread.

"!!!"

The insects guarding the area and the trees rooted nearby were all frightened.

So fierce right from the start?

"Yuan Jing! Yuan Jing!"

Molan waved her tentacles hastily to issue orders. Seeing that the ants were moving slowly, she simply stepped forward and activated her abilities. Two streams of pure system energy extended from her tentacles, two divided into four, four divided into eight...

The strong force turned into countless invisible tentacles, stirring vigorously.

Large pieces of primordial crystals were shattered, and the pure force was released, then instantly sucked away.

Under the command of the cedar, the green cypress and the black persimmon, the ant colony also started to move.

A large amount of force release supplement,
The Force vacuum area was quickly compressed to a 500-meter safe area centered on the trunk of the two-color mulberry tree.

...

The Force Plant's Transformation Breakthrough has certain similarities with the Zerg Warrior.

The soul consciousness of the two-color mulberry is in a clear state.

To break through the first stage, the tree trunk and the star spots exerted force at the same time, trying their best to absorb and devour the natural force. They consciously controlled the force to circulate at ultra-high speed between the tree core and the star spots, and the power interacted with each other.

Until the tree core and the star spots reach a state of 'unity'.

The two-color mulberry tree stayed at the peak of the star realm for too long. During this long period of time, the fit between the tree core and the star spots had become close to perfect. This process lasted only three months and ended easily.

Continue to absorb and store the Force,

Three months of silence,
The star spots completed the final accumulation of power, and the two-colored mulberry consciously controlled it to shrink in circles, imitating the collapse of stars and the explosion of supernovas...

The flare officially begins.

The first step is to get rid of those "traces" that are irrelevant to the core ability "Umbrella Bird".

The second step is to focus on the core capabilities and form a constellation. The Force Plant system is simple, with a small number of capabilities and can be completed quickly.

The third step is that the core of the star absorbs the Force to grow stronger, and a central "black hole" is formed.

The transformation is complete.

Finally, the consciousness falls into a deep sleep, and the life level leaps from the first-level cosmic life form to the second-level cosmic life form.

...

Awaken from sleep,

Shuangse Sang looked at himself for the first time, and then he could hardly conceal his ecstasy.

"Two-color mulberry? How?"

Mo Lan asked.

"Die, Mantis!"

The two-color Mulberry Force energy field instantly unfolded, and a crystal-like umbrella bird with two colors of azure and orange took shape instantly, turning into a red and blue stream of light, and crashed into Molan without any explanation.

boom!
The Umbrellabird, with a wingspan of only about 10 centimeters, suddenly exploded in size when approaching Mo Lan. Perhaps, a more accurate description should be "explosion", and it instantly exploded into a deep blue "phantom" with a wingspan of more than meters.

It is not an illusion, but countless sharp, hard, and tiny ice crystals.

At the moment of explosion, these ice crystals turned into metal, forming a more solid and powerful impact.

Cymbidium:"……"

Molan stood there, not moving.

The power of the Starry Realm is too weak, and it cannot even penetrate the invisible energy field of the immortal body of the Domination Realm.

but,

At the Star Shining Realm level, the power of Two-Colored Sang's 'Umbrella Bird' is certainly not to be underestimated. It contains the power of the two law abilities of 'Phoenix Flame Punishment' and 'Great Cold' that Molan has seen and is very familiar with.

The Umbrella Bird of the Bicolor Mulberry did possess some of the power characteristics of the two laws. In particular, the special ice crystal structure of the Great Cold was completely replicated by it. But unfortunately, it was more of an imitation of the form, and could not deeply grasp the power of the law.

——Then, if the two-color mulberry tree continues to grow and evolve, it will deeply comprehend the two law abilities of 'Phoenix Flame Punishment' and 'Great Cold'.

Mo Lan looked carefully.

After the breakthrough and transformation, the two-color mulberry tree vaguely has a bit of the charm of the sacred tree of law.

In fact, Molan knew very well that the two-color mulberry tree was born extremely smart. From childhood to adulthood, few trees and insects could out-argue it. Even if she argued with it, she would lose more than she won...

"Okay."

"So-so."

Mo Lan flicked her antennae in approval and asked seriously, "Shuangse Sang, can the power of the Umbrella Bird of this intensity be transferred to the Divine Grade Fruit?"

Shuangse Sang seemed not to hear anything and ignored Molan's question. His mental power and thoughts turned rapidly and aimed at Yexiang.

"Old Night Fragrance Tree, die!"

An umbrella bird appeared out of thin air, transformed into a stream of red and blue light, and crashed into Yexiang.

Mo Lan's tentacles swayed slightly, and a beam of white light shot out, easily intercepting and shattering it.

"Die, damn Lan!"

Another umbrella bird flew towards King Molan.

Molan tapped her tentacles lightly and the light beam was intercepted.

"Wu Yi, die!"

"Big Wangbai, die!"

"One leaf soul-building, die. Two leaves soul-building, die..."

"All of you, die..."

Thousands of umbrella birds appeared out of thin air and shot in all directions.

Mo Lan instantly flew into the air, spread her wings, and flapped them. A large amount of light was splashed, turning into beams of light that filled the sky and defeated all the umbrella birds.

Pure soul-related divine power was cast down, covering the two-colored mulberry tree, cutting off its connection with the energy field, and forcibly pressing the energy field back into the body.

"Two-color-sang! Are you crazy?"

"You're crazy."

"What are you doing?"

"I'm just joking with you guys. Stupid mantises, you don't really think I would kill them, do you? We've known each other for hundreds of thousands of years and we have such a good relationship, how could I possibly hurt them~"

"Do you believe that I can kill you with one slap?"

"Do not believe!"

Shuangse Sang ignored Mo Lan, and his mental consciousness broke through the soul shield and aimed at the big king cypress.

"Big Wangbai, you are smart. What do you think of my new Umbrella Bird ability?"

Great King Bai commented impartially: "It doesn't matter whether your ability is great or not. The most important thing is that you have broken through the shackles of innateness and achieved a leap in the life class. You can change your name to the Two-Colored Mulberry Divine Tree."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Two-color Sang laughed wildly.

The Great King Bai asked: "Two-Colored Sang, can the new Umbrella Bird's ability be transmitted to the Divine Grade Fruit?"

"Of course!"

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be worthy of being called a sacred tree."

Shuangse Sang's mental power turned again, and he asked, "Ye Xiang, when will you transform?"

Ye Xiang: "..."

...

...

The Molan transport ship has been traveling back and forth between the White Crystal Galaxy and the Amber Galaxy, mainly transporting law fruits, force food, second- and third-level energy materials, and migrating Zerg warriors to the Amber Galaxy.

...

[Time: 78th Era-781 Yuan-412 Years]

White Crystal Galaxy.

Qingtao and Nandi drove the Molan transport ship directly to the Fengyan star system star port.

Fenglun Star North 4201 area,
Mo Lan, who was dormant and meditating in the mountain ant nest, noticed it first, flashed out of the nest, looked up, and waited for a while.

Longbai controlled the half-ant artist, who was a kilometer long and bloated, and carried five thousand Zerg warriors, through space and landed directly under the king cypress tree.

"Da Wang Bai!"

"Longbai!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Broomberry, purple brake, scale oak..."

meet and greet,

Led by the dragon cypress, all the insects looked towards the direction where the two-colored mulberry tree took root.

"what!"

"Double color mulberry!"

"You finally transformed!"

"Hey! Your temperament has changed a lot too!"

"There is an aura of Phoenix Flame Slayer!"

"And the ability characteristics of 'Dahan'!" "Did it work?"

"Where did you come from, little bug? Can you be sensible? Please call me the Two-Colored Mulberry Divine Tree! Thank you!"

"..."

Mo Lan spoke quickly, introducing: "The fruit produced after the Radiant Transformation, the ability bestowed on the Umbrella Bird does have certain characteristics of the Phoenix Flame Punishment and Great Cold. It is on a higher level, second only to the Law Fruit, far exceeding the ordinary divine product."

"The flowering and fruiting cycle has not changed. It is still 55 years. With one fruit in a single batch, the yield is still too low."

"Oh--"

"Double-color mulberry, very good!"

Long Bai praised it.

Not an unexpected result.
Long Bai deflected his mental power and glanced around.

Ye Xiang, Wu Yi and King Mo Lan followed closely behind Shuangse Sang and completed their breakthrough in radiance. Their sensing energy had improved significantly, but they did not experience the same change in their life temperament as Shuangse Sang.

"Yakashi, what about you?"

"Alas. I don't have the Law Tree to refer to, so it's still a little bit lacking. I just optimized and strengthened the overall capabilities of the Tree Flower Heart Realm..."

Wuyi took the initiative to say: "I am almost there. Wuyi's ability strength has been greatly improved. This is the only step I can take."

King Molan: "I have awakened my light talent, and my Sunburn ability has evolved into the light 'microwave radiation', which can actively emit light waves to detect hidden energy and matter. My growth and evolution has opened up a new path, but I can feel that the future evolution and growth path will be difficult."

"This……"

"Da Lan, your system vision ability has changed to the light system?"

Long Bai was surprised and said, "It's okay, Dalan. You have plenty of time to comprehend it slowly."

Long Bai looked at Mo Lan again...

Molan said: "The Baijing Chamber of Commerce used their connections to help me collect all the Force food produced by the God-given seeds of the Domination Realm that the three major galaxies could collect. I am already the eighth-year master of the star field. I have already comprehended the laws of matter in the universe. With dormant meditation and the evolution of the Force, I can break through and become the master of the star field."

"Let's get down to business!"

Mo Lan asked, "Captain Longbai, you brought so many warriors here. Do you intend to arrange for them to go to the 'Huangjing Galaxy' with me?"

Long Bai: "Of course."

Zisha said: "After we go there, we will mainly help build the star system and cultivate and operate the mining star owned by the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce."

Lin Li said: "7 million light years, 1200 times the speed of light, a voyage of 58 to 60 years. We follow the White Crystal Chamber of Commerce fleet on the expedition, and after we are there, we will not consider coming back. We will stay in the Huangjing Galaxy and wait for the fleet of Chief Longbai."

Mao Mei said faintly, "Except for me, the other warriors are all stuck at the peak of the Constellation Realm. In this expedition, they will either break through to the Evolutionary Domination Realm or die of old age outside."

Cymbidium:"……"

Those who came this time were all warriors who were born in the Azure Star System or the Ocean Blue Star System in the early days and were raised by Molan himself.

They have to face the cruel reality that most of them cannot break through the master of evolution.

What is even more cruel is that some of the insects that were the first to follow out of the mother planet, such as the cedar, green cypress, black persimmon, rainbow ash, ghost fan, mulberry, green maple, and morning glory, may not be able to break through the realm of evolutionary domination.

Not to the point of death...

Longbai speeds up the evolution of the Star Lord, comprehends the power of reincarnation, and the Mountain and Sea Realm evolves into a reincarnation world, which can help those warriors with insufficient lifespans to reincarnate and start again from scratch...

The question is, with a mutated soul, lost memories, and a drastically changed temperament, can you still be the same person after rebirth?

Molan asked, "Longbai, do you want to come with us?"

Longbai shook his antennae, "I want to stay and cultivate the ant colony."

Molan asked, "Where are the fish worms?"

Longbai: "Starport. It can't get in."

Mo Lan waved her claws and said, "Dragon cypress, strawberry, fragrant cypress, green cypress, black persimmon, green peach, southern reed, purple, green heart, black red worm, gray red worm, follow me. The other insects go to the lakeside, purple brake, scale oak, you arrange for everyone to eat and rest."

...

...

Red Robin.

The transmitted white light flashes continuously.

Led by Molan and Longbai, a large group of insects were teleported to the white crystal sacred tree one after another. Finally, a giant ball of light with a light purple color lit up, and the fish insects were also teleported in.

"I have seen the White Crystal Sacred Tree!"

The insects greeted.

It was the first time for the strawberry, cedar, green cypress, black persimmon, green peach, southern reed, black red gourd and gray red gourd to come here. They were cautious, but could not suppress their curiosity. They looked around, secretly using their soul-fixing abilities and mental sensing to scan, and their eyes were all fixed in one direction.

In the distant plains and forests, and in the scattered lakes, there are numerous and unfathomable Holy Butterfly Warriors lurking.

"Fishworm, come and say hello, I have met the White Crystal Sacred Tree!"

Molan waved its tentacles vigorously to give a hint.

"I have seen the White Crystal Sacred Tree!"

The fish and insects greeted him and turned around curiously, looking around.

Molan: "It's our first meeting. Please take care of me."

Yuchong: "It's our first meeting. Please take care of me."

"Um... hello..."

The White Crystal Divine Tree responded, scanning and sizing up the area with its spiritual power.

The surrounding trees and the Holy Butterfly Warriors lurking nearby all cast their mental powers and thoughts, expressing their curiosity and amazement as well.

If the White Crystal Divine Tree hadn't mentioned it, no one would know that there are innate cosmic life forms like the 'Innate Chaos Gods' in the universe.

On the trunk of the white crystal sacred tree, black fog rose and rolled, and the figure of the Lord of Reincarnation condensed and hung upside down on the tree.

"Meet the Lord of Reincarnation!"

Mo Lan, Zi and Lu Xin led the way, and the other insects followed suit.

Yu Chong: "Greetings, Lord of Reincarnation! It's our first meeting, please take care of me."

"..."

The Lord of Samsara tapped his tentacles lightly, his eyes fell on Long Bai, and asked, "Xianglan Chamber of Commerce, Chief Long Bai?"

Longbai: “Yes!”

The Lord of Reincarnation's gaze fell on Mao Mei again.

Mao Mei: "Xianglan Chamber of Commerce Combat Department, 11th Army Commander-in-Chief Mao Mei."

"Oh!"

The Lord of Samsara looked around and finally fixed his gaze on Long Bai. He said, "Captain Long Bai, it seems that your Chamber of Commerce is developing very quickly. This Lord Mao Mei is very powerful."

Long Bai said pertinently: "The advantage of being born late is that resources are abundant. From childhood to adulthood, Mao Mei and others have a sufficient supply of various God-given Force foods, God-grade fruits, and Law fruits. It is relatively easy for them to evolve, and their abilities are relatively stronger."

The Lord of Reincarnation tapped his antennae and agreed, "That's right. The influence of evolutionary resources on warriors cannot be ignored. Over the past million years, the overall capabilities of the warriors of the Holy Butterfly Tribe have also become three times stronger."

"This is the overall development trend of the entire Shenshu civilization."

Long Bai also echoed the words, and without further ado, he went straight to the point and said:

"We, the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce, have gathered 3000 technological bugs and 2000 elite warriors, a total of 5000 bugs, to accompany Molan and the fish bugs on their journey. Lord of Samsara, White Crystal Sacred Tree, is this okay?"

The Lord of Reincarnation said happily: "Of course! It would be the best!"

Long Bai asked again: "Lord of Samsara, may I ask, have many warriors returned from your last expedition?"

The Lord of Reincarnation replied briefly: "I returned alone by dying and being reborn at a speed ten thousand times the speed of light."

Sure enough! Long Bai asked again: "Then, what is the current situation of the Huangjing Galaxy..."

Reincarnation Master: "It is becoming stable. Before we set off, we have found five third-level source points on the edge. The fleet should be busy building source star systems for their base."

Long Bai flicked his antennae and analyzed, "It took 60 years for the fleet to depart from the White Crystal Galaxy and head for the Yellow Crystal Galaxy. After 60 years of evolution, when they arrived, the galaxy's matter was basically stable, and we could start a large-scale search."

Long Bai asked, "Is it only the Baijing Chamber of Commerce? And our Xianglan Chamber of Commerce? Why not seek cooperation with the Flame Spider Chamber of Commerce? The Flame Spider Warriors' interstellar gates can move planets and save a lot of time."

The Lord of Reincarnation shook his tentacles and said, "When it comes to opening up wasteland and building a mining planet in a galaxy 7 million light years away, what we have the most is time. There is no need to involve more forces, and you should also keep it secret."

"Right."

Long Bai asked again: "What about the starship we are riding? Fishworms are not only huge, but also clumsy. They can easily lose control and cause damage. Fishworms need a spacious enough, specially modified and reinforced cabin. Or, it would be better to build an independent starship."

The Lord of Samsara said, "However, the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce will board a survival mothership independently, and a special cabin will be arranged for Yu Chong on the mothership. At the same time, a special starship with more power and a more solid internal structure will be built for Yu Chong. With double insurance, there shouldn't be any problems."

Long Bai tapped his antenna vigorously and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the Baijing Chamber of Commerce to spend the money."

"Small things."

The Lord of Samsara asked, "Captain Longbai, do you want to come with us?"

“The Xianglan Chamber of Commerce is still in its early stages of development, and I definitely can’t leave.”

Long Bai said: "I am trying to comprehend the laws of the world, so I am not suitable for deep space travel for the time being. About 170 million to 180 million years later, after the domination of the starry sky, the first batch of starships for the expedition of the Xianglan Chamber of Commerce will be built, and we will organize a fleet to officially sail and explore..."

The Lord of Reincarnation asked: "New materials, new technology, and an expedition fleet that travels 2000 times the speed of light?"

Long Bai: "Yes. There are also demigod-level intelligent machines to help accelerate the formation of materials."

Long Bai took the initiative to say: "When the time comes, we will also organize Pei Diernan civilization to build a technological city in the Huangjing Galaxy as a transit point and logistics base for the Chamber of Commerce's expedition."

The Lord of Reincarnation asked, "I heard that you are planning to look for the White Tower civilization? The Crystal Throne Galaxy Cluster in the old universe? 100 billion light years away? The ancient artifact that sealed the true god?"

"That's right!"

Long Bai added: "The actual travel distance may be more than 300 billion light years."

"..."

The Lord of Reincarnation is silent.

Long Bai explained: "We are not rash and will not rush to a place 300 billion light years away. We are still focusing on development. When the number of the Chamber of Commerce's Domination Realm warriors reaches a certain scale and when our strength is strong enough, we will consider it."

That’s pretty much it~
The Lord of Reincarnation tapped his tentacles lightly.

Long Bai asked, "Lord of Samsara, when will the fleet set out? Let's get ready."

The Lord of Samsara said, "The fleet has been prepared and can set off at any time. However, in the Baijing Galaxy, the new and old warriors of our Baijing Chamber of Commerce have just completed the handover of their duties. We dare not be completely assured. We will observe for another ten thousand years. If there are no major problems, we will set sail."

The White Crystal Divine Tree said, "Captain Longbai, Captain Molan, ten thousand years from now, you will lead your team to assemble at the 'Earth Gate Star System'."

"no problem!"

Long Bai said, tentatively: "Then, the expedition star map..."

The Lord of Reincarnation raised his claws and a bit of black soul power condensed at the tip of his toes. Infinite power and information gathered rapidly and lasted for half a day. Finally, it turned into a substantial black "water drop" and floated down to Longbai, leaving a black water drop-shaped mark on the top of Longbai's head.

Long Bai tried to communicate through mental consciousness.

A vast ocean of data!

The fleet led by the Lord of Reincarnation of the Baijing Chamber of Commerce spent a total of more than two million years on expeditions and explorations, and the amount of information collected about the universe and the starry sky was enough to burst the insects.

It cannot be written directly into the soul consciousness.

The Lord of Reincarnation used some special soul ability that could carry enormous amounts of information.

——This ability is amazing!
——The soul-related "minor abilities" outside of the core abilities have also reached the level of divine power.

——Has this Lord of Reincarnation reached the pinnacle of the Lord of the Universe? It can’t be that fast.

Long Bai activated his intelligent brain ability to scan and retrieve information, while silently speculating in his mind.

The Lord of Reincarnation warned: "A safe and feasible star navigation path represents, to a certain extent, the development direction of a race or a chamber of commerce in the future. Don't spread it around."

"Of course!"

Long Bai agreed in a resounding voice. (End of this chapter)
