Natural God's Gift
#381 - Breeding the Ghost King Sophora japonica
Since the Pokeweed Divine Tree had spoken, the Spider Kings, though still harboring doubts, refrained from further questioning.
However, before using the Divine Wish Fruit to allow the Locust Tree's God-given Seed to gestate Ghost King Locust Seeds, a spider had to consume the Divine Wish Fruit first.
Who would eat the Divine Wish Fruit? This was another problem.
For the Spider Kings, they had to condense divine patterns to advance their age. At this stage, eating ordinary divine-grade fruits was no longer sufficient to promote their age.
Unless they consumed a law-grade divine fruit, no matter how many divine-grade fruits they ate, they would still be stuck at the threshold of age evolution.
Theoretically, having a Lord-level Flame Spider Battle Soldier consume the Divine Wish Fruit and safely advance an age would maximize the benefits.
But the Divine Wish Fruit was somewhat different. After consuming it, one could briefly condense divine patterns. In this case, it was uncertain whether it counted as advancing an age.
The Spider Kings thought this way and asked, "Pokeweed Divine Tree, can the divine patterns condensed by the Divine Wish Fruit replace normal divine patterns to allow King-level insect warriors to advance their age?"
The Pokeweed Divine Tree slowly said, "The kingdom once possessed a God-given Seed similar to the Lucky Grass, which could also condense disposable divine patterns."
"Back then, we experimented with that kind of divine-grade fruit, and it could indeed allow the Insect King to briefly advance an age, but after the divine patterns condensed by the divine-grade fruit were exhausted, its age would fall back down."
"Is that so? Wouldn't that be a waste of effort to advance?" Upon hearing this, the Spider Kings' expressions dimmed.
Advancing and then falling back down, who could accept that outcome?
The Pokeweed Divine Tree spoke unhurriedly, "However, the Divine Wish Fruit is different from the Divine Illumination Fruit of the past.
Although both are consumable divine-grade fruits, the Illumination Fruit is a reverse-consumption type, and the Wish Fruit is a progressive-consumption type. When using the ability of the Wish Fruit, it can trigger the laws of the Star Realm.
Even if the Wish Divine Pattern only passes through the body, traces and insights of the law will remain in the body, which will be of some help in condensing divine patterns."
"Is that so?" The eyes of the spiders lit up one by one. For them, the Spider Kings, to condense divine patterns was actually to condense the laws of the Star Realm within themselves. If there were traces and insights of the law, it would definitely be easier than starting from scratch in comprehending the Star Realm's laws.
Spider King Changqing asked doubtfully, "But isn't the Illumination Fruit a similar divine-grade fruit? After consumption, it should also leave traces of the law in the body, right?"
The Pokeweed Divine Tree said, "That is indeed the case, but as I said before, the Illumination Fruit is a divine-grade fruit that reverses the laws of the Star Realm. To be precise, it is a depletion-type divine-grade fruit.
It comes with a law stripping effect. Unless you awaken a similar ability, comprehending this law will only make your path to condensing divine patterns less effective."
The Spider Kings were speechless, never expecting that the Illumination Fruit would have such drawbacks.
Spider King Jingtian looked at the numerous Spider Kings present: "Then who will consume the Divine Wish Fruit?"
"I will,"
"I will contribute to the kingdom."
"I can also try."
The Spider Kings were eager to try, all wanting to taste the flavor of the Divine Wish Fruit. Anyway, even if advancing their age failed, there would be no loss. Who could say for sure if they might take the opportunity to comprehend divine patterns?
Seeing the eager appearance of the Spider Kings, Spider King Jingtian was somewhat embarrassed. In this situation, it was not appropriate to let anyone do it, but he only hesitated for a moment before making a decision.
"The Divine Wish Fruit is a wood-type divine-grade fruit. Only I, Didan, Changqing, and Zilu have wood-type talents. The fruit is only suitable for us to eat."
"Didan, you have been at the King level for quite some time. You can consume the Divine Wish Fruit and sense the feeling of a second-age Spider King. Perhaps even if you lose the Wish Divine Pattern in the future, you can still rely on yourself to advance to the second age."
"Okay." Hearing Spider King Jingtian say that he could consume the Divine Wish Fruit, Spider King Didan was overjoyed. He had indeed not made a breakthrough for a long time after advancing to the Spider King, and using the stone of another mountain to attack jade was indeed a very good entry point.
Siyue handed the Divine Wish Fruit to Spider King Didan: "Then Spider King Didan, you should consume it now. If you can digest it completely before the beginning of spring, you can just use the ability on the God-given Seed."
Spider King Didan moved his pedipalps, and he also felt that this arrangement was fine.
He took the Divine Forbidden Box that Siyue gave him and then said to everyone, "Then I will go and consume the Wish Fruit first."
The Spider Kings looked enviously at Spider King Didan. In fact, on their Pokeweed trade route, there were divine-grade fruits that bestowed wood-type talents.
But because the five Flame Spider tribes did not need to manage territories, the cost-effectiveness of awakening wood-type talents was not high, so most of the divine-grade fruits that they traded that bestowed wood-type talents were resold.
If they had known this would happen, they would have eaten a divine-grade fruit that bestowed wood-type talents no matter what.
Spider King Didan took the Divine Forbidden Box back to his territory to consume and evolve, while the other Spider Kings went to busy themselves with their own affairs.
Siyue stayed under the Pokeweed Divine Tree, quietly waiting for the result.
Two or three months passed quickly, but Spider King Didan was still nowhere to be seen, but no one was anxious. Anyway, the growth of law-grade divine fruits was not a matter of a day or two. Even if they missed the flowering time of the Locust Tree this year, they could save it for next year.
One day, when Siyue was idle and forced by the Pokeweed Divine Tree to train his abilities, he suddenly saw Spider King Didan walking under the Pokeweed Divine Tree.
Spider King Didan looked up at the tall Pokeweed Divine Tree, a four-leaf clover-shaped divine pattern shining on his forehead: "Pokeweed Divine Tree, I have broken through to the second age."
"Yes," the Pokeweed Divine Tree said, "This breakthrough of yours is actually unstable. Once you use the ability of the Wish Fruit, your age will decrease. You must be mentally prepared for this."
"I know." The Pokeweed Divine Tree had already said it once before, so Spider King Didan was naturally mentally prepared for this.
Spider King Didan shuttled through this mountain range, heading to the location where the Locust Tree's God-given Seed was planted.
Everyone was busy in the spring, so only Siyue followed him.
Before long, he arrived under the Locust Tree's God-given Seed.
The Locust Tree's God-given Seed was empty, without leaving a single fruit. This was because they had been preparing for this day for several years.
The Locust Tree was not flowering at the moment. Normally, they would flower in March, so it was still early to come now,
But Spider King Didan didn't care about this.
He came under the Locust Tree's God-given Seed, looking at the lush green, although there was not a single locust flower on the tree, he did not hesitate to use his ability.
The four-leaf divine pattern on his forehead flashed, and then turned into a strange original energy, and under the guidance of Spider King Didan, this original energy covered the entire Locust Tree.
At the same time, after Spider King Didan used his ability, the four-leaf divine pattern on his forehead immediately disappeared,
The aura on his body also quickly dimmed, returning to the state of a first-age Spider King.
Seeing Spider King Didan's aura weaken, Siyue was a little worried: "Spider King Didan, are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Spider King Didan naturally didn't care, he looked at the Locust Tree's God-given Seed and said, "I have already used the ability of the Divine Wish Fruit on this Locust Tree. When the time comes, it will be able to flower and bear fruit."
Siyue also raised his head and looked up at the Locust Tree's God-given Seed above: "Will it bear a single fruit, or many fruits?"
"Don't worry, you'll know immediately."
Siyue subconsciously looked at Spider King Didan, but this sentence was not said by him, but by the Locust Tree's God-given Seed.
The Locust Tree's God-given Seed, which had accumulated a long time of life force, burst out, and the tree began to grow flower branches at an extremely fast speed, and small flower buds grew on the flower branches.
Under the gaze of Siyue and the others, in just a moment, strings of flower buds formed on the Locust Tree's God-given Seed.
With a sweep of mental power, Siyue and the others quickly counted the number of flower buds on the tree.
"The number of flower buds is the same as the number of a portion of law Ghost King Locust Seeds. It seems that the form of law-grade divine fruits is difficult to change."
"Indeed," the Locust Tree's God-given Seed also said at this time: "But perhaps my grade is too low. I feel very strenuous in gestating Ghost King Locust Seeds."
"What?" Hearing the Locust Tree's God-given Seed say this, Siyue and Spider King Didan were both shocked: "Won't you be unable to gestate Ghost King Locust Seeds due to your grade?"
Siyue had personally experienced this problem. Back then, the Raspberry Plant gestating nine Raspberry God-given Seeds almost died because it needed to supply too much nutrition. It was he who used the Life God Stone to save the plant.
The Locust Tree's God-given Seed said: "That's not the case, but I can perceive that gestating this kind of law-grade divine fruit will take a very long time, a hundred years at the shortest, and two hundred years at the longest. You have to wait."
"It takes so long?" Siyue was shocked, but then he realized that he had only just advanced to the Lord level and had plenty of time to wait. This didn't matter much.
"The level of law-grade divine fruits is too high. Didn't you see that even the Pokeweed Divine Tree takes nearly thirty years to gestate divine-grade Pokeweed Fruits?
Now it only takes five or six times longer than divine-grade Pokeweed Fruits, which is very good. This is all because I used an extraterrestrial civilization's creation to advance myself to beyond the King level. Otherwise, even waiting three hundred years might not be enough to mature the fruits on the tree."
Hearing this, Siyue sighed: "Then it seems that gestating law-grade divine fruits is not so easy!"
