Natural God's Gift

Four-Leaf, Bai Zhi, and Angelica were chatting idly on Yun Shi's back.

"Yun Shi, did Lord Longxu give you the exact coordinates?"

Yun Shi swam swiftly through the sea while responding with a mental message: "Mom didn't tell me the specific location, but I have an impression of that area and know the general direction."

"That's good," everyone was relieved to hear Yun Shi say that. With a general direction, Angelica could fly into the sky and look for traces of insect warriors.

Yun Shi carried everyone, drifting in the sea for four or five days. Because the sun was a bit strong during the day, they were all nocturnal.

During the day, Four-Leaf and the others randomly found an island reef that could accommodate the insects, hid in the woods, and slept for a whole day before coming out at night.

Yun Shi also hid underwater during the day, and after sunset, it resurfaced to carry Four-Leaf and the others to the location guided by Lord Longxu.

The Star Sand Archipelago was really too big. Most of the sea area of the Myriad Races Continent was within this range. Even most of the Flame Spider Kingdom was surrounded by its island clusters.

At Yun Shi's speed, it took five or six days of swimming around the outer edge of the island chain to reach the island group guided by Lord Longxu.

"It should be this area," Yun Shi stopped moving forward, gently swaying its giant tail to float on the sea, looking at the distant island chain.

"Okay," hearing that they had arrived, Four-Leaf began to arrange the action.

"Let's find an island nearby to rest first, and then look for insect warriors when it's dawn. Yun Shi, you should also take a good rest."

"After dawn, Angelica, you look for traces of insect warriors in the air.

Bai Zhi, you and I will build a camp together when the time comes. We'll stay here for a while longer."

"Okay," the spider and cicada replied in unison.

Everyone found an island reef to rest until dawn.

The next day, as soon as it dawned, the sun rose from the sea, shining on the surface of the sea, making it sparkle.

Facing the morning light, Angelica chirped a few times, spread its huge wings, and fluttered into the air: "Four-Leaf, am I going to look for insect warriors now?"

"Wait a moment," Four-Leaf took out a spider silk bag and handed a roll of things from the bag to Angelica:

"Take this with you."

"Okay," Angelica opened the roll, which turned out to be a triangular spider silk flag about ten square meters in size. The spider silk flag was painted with a lifelike and huge Flame Spider pattern, and its diameter was even much larger than Four-Leaf and Bai Zhi themselves.

Four-Leaf said, "Angelica, you just need to carry this flag and fly back and forth in the sky above the island.

If you encounter insect warriors, don't argue like last time. Even if they are hostile to us, we should avoid confronting them head-on.

If the other party's hostility is really serious, it's best to lead them here, and we will communicate with them."

"I know, the last time was an accident, and I wasn't prepared," Angelica knew that Four-Leaf's continuous reminders meant that the mistake last time was really serious. If it continued to have the same problems as last time,

then it was afraid that it would really have to go back to guard the territory and eat durians.

Angelica unfolded the spider silk flag. The entire flag was in the shape of an inverted triangle, and there was a wooden pole inserted on the edges of the two corners of the flag, so that the flag could be unfolded in the air. It pinched one of the corners and took off leisurely. From a distance, it looked like a big spider and a big cicada were flying together.

Yinmei Continent is dominated by a huge island with an area of 430 square kilometers, plus several other islands of various sizes.

More than a dozen or twenty insect warriors live on the island, of all kinds, headed by two mountain lords, helping each other and living together around the entire continent.

Intermediate Yunwen Tiger Armor Warrior in the second stage, Mangcao is one of the insect warriors. They usually live quite comfortably. They get up every day to eat, and after eating, they wander around, which is very pleasant.

Today, it was fishing by the sea as usual, and it was complaining that today's fish catch was not enough, and there were no fish it wanted to eat. Then, it inadvertently looked up at the sky and saw a scene that shocked it.

It saw a huge black cicada carrying an even bigger spider, slowly flying towards Yinmei Continent from the sky.

"Where did this cicada warrior come from?" Yunwen Tiger Armor warrior Mangcao was a little surprised and uncertain when he saw the black cicada warrior in the sky. They didn't have any cicada warriors in Yinmei Continent.

Moreover, judging from its size, this cicada warrior should have reached the advanced stage. There are not many insect warriors in Yinmei Continent who have been promoted to advanced warriors, only six or seven.

Also, what's going on with the spider it's carrying?

Thinking of this, it did not rashly fly forward to say hello or stop it, but quietly hid in the woods, wanting to see what this cicada warrior, who didn't know where it came from, was doing?

If it came to harm Yinmei Continent, then it would have to notify Mountain Lord Shemei in time.

Mangcao quietly lurked in the woods, monitoring the cicada warrior in the sky through the gaps in the branches above its head.

After a while, it discovered that the thing carried by this big cicada was not a real Flame Spider, but an image of a Flame Spider made of something unknown. It felt almost the same as its own reflection on the water.

It saw the big cicada flying back and forth in this area, as if it was looking for something. It didn't dare to delay and immediately crawled quickly through the dark woods. No matter what this cicada wanted to do, it had to convey the message to the two mountain lords.

Because the big cicada was in the sky, it didn't dare to take off. It took a long time to climb out of the dense forest.

Looking back, the other party was still wandering in that area. It was a little fortunate that the other party had not noticed it, so it flew slowly at low altitude to notify the more powerful insect warriors on the island.

Angelica wasn't stupid either. It knew not to fly to the center of the island. Everyone knew that if there were really insect warriors on the island, they would most likely be in the central area.

But if it rushed to the center of the island so rashly, wouldn't that be the same as Hong Cha? If it accidentally broke into the area where the other party was planting life seeds, it would definitely offend the other party, which was not what it wanted to see.

It wandered around the edge of the island with the flag. If there were no insect warriors, then so be it. As long as there were insect warriors, as long as it wasn't blind, it could basically see them.

Even if the insect warriors were more aloof in the island's edge area, they would only drive it away, instead of treating it as an enemy and trying to kill it as soon as they came up.

It had just faintly felt a gaze spying on it, and it didn't know if it was an insect warrior?

It's a pity that if Four-Leaf was here, that would be great. Its sixth sense was extremely keen, and it could sense some unusual things from a long distance.

Mangcao flew at low altitude for a while and soon came to the central area of the island. Then, it suddenly flapped its wings, as if a beast was chasing it from behind. It cried out in panic using mental messages: "Mountain Lord Shemei, Mountain Lord Kongxin, something bad has happened, something bad has happened!"

"What's wrong? Who's not good?" Within the central area of the island, two Mountain Lord-level insect warriors were dividing up a Komodo dragon. Hearing Mangcao's words, they stood up in confusion.

The two Mountain Lord-level insect warriors were the Broad-banded Yellow Butterfly Warrior – Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord, and the Yellow-backed Beetle Warrior – Hollow Heart Mountain Lord.

Hollow Heart Mountain Lord dropped the food in its claws, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "Mangcao, what are you talking about? Who's not good?

Is it me who's not good, or is Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord not good?"

"No, no," Mangcao wanted to explain the situation, but was too nervous to speak clearly.

Another Mountain Lord-level insect warrior put down the food in its claws and said calmly, "Don't rush, take a breather first."

Hearing Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord say this, Mangcao also returned to its usual calm tone: "I saw a cicada warrior outside the island."

"Is that so?" Hollow Heart Mountain Lord said with some delight, "Wouldn't that mean our Silver Plum Continent has another insect warrior?"

"It's not like that," Mangcao poured cold water on Hollow Heart Mountain Lord: "This big cicada is not a newly born insect warrior, but a powerful insect warrior that has at least reached the advanced stage."

"Oh?" The two Mountain Lords weren't fools. Hearing Mangcao say this, they knew it was a foreign insect.

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord asked, "Did you only see one insect?"

Mangcao: "I only saw one insect, but the insect was also carrying a huge spider silk portrait in its claws. It's currently wandering around the island, as if searching for something?"

"Searching for what?" Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord was somewhat puzzled, while Hollow Heart Mountain Lord was curious about another aspect: "How did it come to our Silver Plum Continent?"

They had tried to fly away from this island, but most insect warriors weren't good at long-distance flight.

After flying away from this island, they could only see the sea and the sky on the surface of the sea, without even a place to land. Sometimes, as they flew, they couldn't even distinguish between the ocean and the sky, let alone encountering storms, heavy rain, thunder, and lightning.

"I don't know," the insect warriors near their Silver Plum Continent had never left the surrounding islands. Mangcao was just an intermediate-level warrior and understood even less.

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord pondered for a moment and said, "Hollow Heart, let's go meet it and see what its purpose is in coming to this island?"

"Okay," Hollow Heart Mountain Lord readily agreed. They had two Mountain Lord-level warriors, and according to Mangcao's description,

that cicada warrior was at most an advanced-level warrior. They really weren't afraid.

At the same time, they also wanted to make contact with the outside world. There were a dozen or twenty insect warriors in this Silver Plum Continent, with the low-level ones being only at the initial and intermediate stages, and the high-level ones being just the two of them.

The other insect warriors were fine, most of them had Primal Force food to eat, and had the potential to continue evolving, but the two of them had already evolved to their limit. They dared not eat any more of the Primal Force food in their life seeds.

If they could trade for other kinds of Primal Force food from the foreign insect's claws, that would be great. Even if they couldn't trade for Primal Force food, getting a method and path to leave would also be good.

Mangcao eagerly said, "Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord, I'll lead the way for you."

"No," Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord rejected Mangcao's proposal: "Mangcao, go notify everyone and let them be on guard. Didn't you say that cicada warrior was flying and wandering near the direction you live in? Hollow Heart and I will go find it."

"Alright," Mangcao grumbled somewhat reluctantly, but it also knew that reminding everyone to protect their life seeds was more important. After instructing Mangcao to notify the other insect warriors, Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord and Hollow Heart Mountain Lord soared into the sky without concealing themselves, flying towards the direction Mangcao pointed out.

Danggui was flying back and forth in the air carrying the huge banner. The wind by the sea was too strong, blowing the banner to sway repeatedly, making it very difficult to hold. It could only use the sharp hooks between its claws to hold it tightly to prevent the banner from falling, but it still had to pay attention at all times.

Just as it was fighting wits and courage with the banner, two huge insect warriors appeared in the central area of the island and flew towards it.

"There really are insect warriors, and their evolution age isn't low either." Danggui was somewhat surprised, but then regained its composure. Insect warriors were nothing strange.

Seeing the two insect warriors flying towards it, Danggui neither greeted them nor ran away, but simply flapped its wings in the air, staying in its original position.

"Black Grasshopper Cicada Warrior?" Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord and Hollow Heart Mountain Lord only recognized Danggui's specific race after flying closer. "Broad-banded Yellow Butterfly? Yellow-backed Beetle?" After seeing the two insect warriors clearly, Danggui immediately began searching its inherited memories, recognizing the races of the two insect warriors.

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord looked at the Flame Spider banner in Danggui's claws, a strange glint flashed in its eyes, and then it asked doubtfully, "Black Grasshopper Cicada Warrior, I've never seen you before, where did you come from?"

Danggui greeted the two politely: "Hello, my name is Danggui, and I come from the Flame Spider Kingdom. I am the vanguard scout of our trade caravan."

"Flame Spider Kingdom? Trade caravan?" The two Mountain Lord-level insect warriors were somewhat doubtful: "You say you come from the Flame Spider Kingdom? But you are not a Flame Spider, you are lying!"

Danggui said calmly, "This Yellow-backed Beetle Mountain Lord, I am not lying. I did come from the Flame Spider Kingdom. Although I am not a Flame Spider, I am a symbiotic insect of the Kingdom's Flame Spiders."

"Symbiotic insect?" The two Mountain Lords were somewhat confused by this term in this remote island.

Seeing this, Danggui took the initiative to explain: "Symbiotic insects are insect warriors that assist the Flame Spiders in managing their territory and conducting trade. We depend on the Flame Spider Kingdom for survival and can be considered one of the traveling merchants."

"So that's how it is," hearing Danggui's explanation, the two Mountain Lords understood that this guy was a handyman.

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord tentatively asked, "Danggui? Then how did you get here? What are you here to do?"

Danggui: "We have come for the sake of all the Primal Force warriors in the entire Star Realm being able to evolve safely, to trade insect warriors with Primal Force food that can allow you to evolve safely."

"You? Primal Force food? Where is it?"

"Didn't you come alone?"

Hollow Heart Mountain Lord asked several questions in succession.

Danggui chuckled and said, "I said before, I am the vanguard scout of the Flame Spider trade caravan. The leader and members of our trade caravan are still on other islands not far away. Would you two like to come with me to meet them?"

Serpentine Raspberry Mountain Lord thought for a moment and said, "Then we'll trouble Danggui to lead the way."

They had two Mountain Lords. As long as they didn't leave the island too far, there shouldn't be any danger.
