Heliotrope: "...No, I haven't seen or heard of it."

Dragon Cypress: "Once, was there such a Wujia Wood?"

Heliotrope puzzled: "I don't know—"

Dragon Cypress: "Are the four old Spider Kings still over there? Heliotrope, go, ask them, just say the Snow Velvet Spider King is inquiring."

Snow Velvet Spider King: "..."

Heliotrope: "..."

Snow Velvet Spider King had a hunch about what Dragon Cypress was inquiring about, and said: "Dragon Cypress Ant King's question piques my curiosity as well. Heliotrope, kindly make the trip and help ask."

"Alright—"

Heliotrope turned to leave.

Ghost King Woonyoung hesitated and said: "In fact, I might know a little about this..."

"???"

Heliotrope paused, turning back.

Ghost King Woonyoung: "To my knowledge, the Divine-Given Seed of Wujia Wood has existed for four to five thousand years. In the early stage of the Origin Force cycle when the Ten-thousand Tribes Continent was reviving, an ancestor from the Flame Spider Tribe found it while traveling the continent. They brought it back to the tribe, planted, cultivated it, and unexpectedly obtained a Divine God-Given Seed."

Dragon Cypress: "Anything else?"

Ghost King Woonyoung: "That's all. The Flame Spider Roving Merchant doesn't really operate, it's too long ago, and Dragon Cypress Ant King, I fear there might be no Insect who can answer your question."

Dragon Cypress: "Understood..."

A hundred million Source Stones are transported here.

The Source Stone settlement should just go to Fragrant Cypress and Black Sophora to handle.

Dragon Cypress accompanied the Snow Velvet Spider King to Red Banyan Mountain to collect the Source Stones stored there.

As they exited the cave,

Snow Velvet Spider King immediately asked: "Dragon Cypress Ant King, last year's mutated White Mulberry Divine-Given Seed... what's the situation?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Dragon Cypress countered: "Snow Velvet Spider King, what's the situation with the Wujia Wood Divine-Given Seed? When I mentioned it, Red Peach subconsciously and very covertly glanced at you, and Heliotrope's gaze directly fell on you. Could it be..."

"That little Spider Heliotrope..."

"I knew you wouldn't be fooled."

Snow Velvet Spider King paused and candidly said: "As early as a hundred years ago, the Wujia Wood Divine-Given Seed was transferred to Shanglu Ancestral Land to take root, along with some ordinary Divine-Given Seeds collected and cultivated over there in Ten-thousand Tribes Continent."

"This was arranged by the Shanglu Divine Tree, and its intention is that all Divine-Given Seeds should, as much as possible, not leave the Origin Force Star Realm. If they are weary and must depart, then they should be organized, in batches, with arrangements like mine, where trustworthy Spider Kings who aren't driven by wealth would escort them out."

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Dragon Cypress's thoughts whirled quickly, asking: "Does the Shanglu Divine Tree know some things about the Outworld?"

Snow Velvet Spider King: "Unclear. Dare not ask."

Snow Velvet Spider King asked again: "What's the situation with that mutated White Mulberry Divine-Given Seed?"

Dragon Cypress: "It simultaneously displays Water System and Fire System Primordial Energy fluctuations, similar Divine-Given Seeds I know are just the Divine-grade Spotted Thicket Fruit and Wujia Fruit, and I've never heard of ordinary Divine-Given Seeds having dual elemental attributes."

Snow Velvet Spider King pondered these words, and gradually the eight eyes brightened, gleaming with vibrant colors, heavily stating:

"Indeed! In my three hundred years wandering the continent, I haven't heard of ordinary Divine-Given Seeds possessing multiple elemental attributes. Oh! Another Divine grade? The opportunity is great!"

"Only a possibility."

Dragon Cypress said: "As far as I know, in Ten-thousand Tribes Continent's Cloud Crown Mountain, a similar Waterwood System divine-grade Spotted Thicket Fruit was born from a mutation of a regular Cloud Crown Tree Divine-Given Seed. Cloud Crown Mountain does not have ordinary Cloud Crown Trees with Waterwood System nor Cloud Crown Tree species bearing two-colored fruits."

"Yes?"

The radiant eyes of Snow Velvet Spider King dimmed one by one, thought for a moment, and said:

"Based on my observation, the two rows of mulberry trees you planted by the river both bear red and white bicolor fruits? Can this bloodline trait be stably passed on?"

Dragon Cypress: "Yes. The first generation mother plant is on Rainbow Island, while what is planted in Xianglan Mountain are second-generation seedling stocks."

Snow Velvet Spider King meditated and said: "Some species cultivated through hybridization appear to have stable bloodline inheritance, but occasionally show ancestral reversion. Major tribes with a long inheritance almost inevitably encounter this. However, I've never heard of species with multiple elemental attributes from trait separation, nor of such plants robustly growing and stably passing traits to the next generation."

"It's not an unimaginable phenomenon. Whether plant or animal, all Origin Force Lives share common traits. Take our Insect Clan as an example; ninety-nine percent of the species can only awaken a single system talent when breaking through to Mountain Lord Level. Yet there's a minority tribe capable of awakening dual systems, even multiple systems."

"The same rationale applies to plants but is more rare. In the Inherited Memory, recorded thirty thousand plant species are all single systems, none dual or multiple systems, correct? The mutated White Mulberry is a peculiar case seldom seen in ten thousand years."

Dragon Cypress: "Indeed..."

What Snow Velvet Spider King analyzed, Dragon Cypress had already deliberated.

Currently, it appears unique and extraordinarily rare, yet it does not definitively mean the mutated White Mulberry Divine-Given Seed is of Divine grade.

Snow Velvet Spider King couldn't draw any substantial conclusions either; Dragon Cypress accompanied it to Red Banyan Mountain, sorted, loaded, and sent off the Source Stones.

He returned to the Trade Cave, waiting four to five days before the caravan arrived successively.

Dragon Cypress introduced Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf to Cicada Seed, Blue Pea, and Poison Bean, three Little Flame Spiders, to visit the Flame Spider Caravan on the opposite Wan Country Continent, enhancing their experience...

Silver Cypress Year 146,

The cold winter season of the Northern Hemisphere.

Dragon Cypress brought Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf to Rainbow Island for the winter.

On the island's southern tip,

The Whirl Beast shifted to Cloud Mist form, transforming into a giant ant spreading its wings across kilometers, hovering at low altitude.

Dragon Cypress, with Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf, lay atop the giant ant's head, gazing at the beach below.

On the beach, silver thunderlight flickered,
