Ant Lord in the Star Realm

Chapter 879 648: Cloud Trace Great Migration (Part 2)

After evolving into Insect Kings, the annual revenue exceeds 2.5 million.

Such a huge income, should it be given up?

When faced with danger, the Divine-Given Seed can autonomously gather the Tree Heart, preparing to flee in a very short time.

Common Life Seeds can't do this; they require assistance from Insect Clan Warriors, who must form the Tree Heart one by one, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In a sudden crisis, there's probably not enough time to escape.

After discussion, the decision was made,

Blue Catalpa and Snakebark Maple will first go to Rainbow Island to avoid the calling of Natural God, but eventually, the Life Seed must return to Kiwifruit Mountain to take root.

Blue Catalpa returns to Kiwifruit Mountain to take care.

Snakebark Maple stays at Rainbow Island to help, occasionally returning for visits...

…

…

Ink Orchid has been observing the Vortex Beast Devouring Ability of Dragon Cypress for a long time.

With successful examples before her, she easily combined the Vortex Beast and Hydra abilities, initially understanding the marvels of the Water System's four form changes.

It's difficult to grasp why Dragon Cypress used so much time on something so simple...

…

…

Rainbow Island, southern sea region.

Ink Orchid imitated Dragon Cypress's 'Vortex Beast Devouring', also constructing a bizarre 'Sea Beast' resembling a sea serpent, with twelve paddle fins.

While training her abilities, she carried the two little ones, Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf, joyfully swimming and playing in the sea.

A black shadow suddenly fell from ten thousand meters above, halting abruptly.

"Ink Orchid! The Snow Velvet Spider King is here! Due south, slightly 15 degrees west, 260 kilometers away from Rainbow Island."

With simple guidance, White Willow is the most excellent scouting warrior.

"Isn't the Snow Velvet Spider King early this year?"

"Oh! I understand! The ten billion has arrived!"

Ink Orchid cheered and called: "Come on! Let's go welcome them!"

The vortex beast controlled by Ink Orchid was over four hundred meters long, its twelve paddle fins gliding in unison, swiftly cutting through the waves.

"Snow Velvet Spider King!"

Ink Orchid called out.

"Snow Velvet Spider King~"

White Willow joined in, spiraling down to land atop the vortex beast's head, standing beside Ink Orchid.

The Snow Velvet Spider King stared fiercely with eight eyeballs at Ink Orchid's head, momentarily frozen, impatiently stomping its feet.

"Ink Orchid? Why did you bring two little warriors?"

"Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf, of course."

"Hello Snow Velvet Spider King!"

"Greetings, Snow Velvet Spider King!"

Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf called out.

"You two are reckless, aren't you?"

The Snow Velvet Spider King asked irritably: "Where is Dragon Cypress? What kind of trick are you playing? Have you forgotten yourselves after killing a Kirin Beast Ant King? Aren't you afraid of Blue Island's surprise retaliation?"

"Dragon Cypress is busy. Next year is Expedition Year; it's receiving the Insect King Warriors from Cloud Trace Continent..."

Ink Orchid replied, calmly swinging her tentacle up and down, soothingly: "Snow Velvet Spider King, don't worry, Dragon Cypress and I have calculated it accurately, Blue Island wouldn't dare to easily attack Rainbow Island."

"The logic is rather complex. First, in Yu'e Island, Dragon Cypress stood off against a kilometer-long Kirin Beast, using the Dead Water State Vortex Beast and the Ant King's head, simply employing a psychological tactic to scare off the opponent. That Kirin Beast Ant King even forgot to retrieve its companion's head, indicating its lack of bravado, weak fighting will. Or, it might also be understood as cautious."

"Second..."

...

Ink Orchid felt that Dragon Cypress and Round Leaf Keg Vine's analysis made sense, so she organized it and recounted their analysis in one go.

Finally,

Ink Orchid added: "Dragon Cypress and I have been waiting for half a year, and Blue Island hasn't made any moves, not even sending insects to approach Rainbow Island to gather information. This perfectly verifies our analysis."

Ink Orchid reassured again: "Snow Velvet Spider King, rest assured, though we appear lax and slack, covertly we are on round-the-clock shifts, constantly monitoring every surge of the sea, every wave within a 300-kilometer radius. Rainbow Island will not be ambushed."

White Willow echoed: "Dragon Cypress Ant King mentioned that this is the most top-level psychological game. Dragon Cypress Ant King may calculate numbers precisely, but it also calculates insect hearts to the core."

The Snow Velvet Spider King: "..."

The Snow Velvet Spider King was again dumbfounded, speechless, annoyed: "Don't jokingly risk the lives of little warriors. If that Kirin Beast Ant King attacks, these little guys won't even have time to run."

Ink Orchid was indifferent, slightly impatient, gesturing with her claw: "No problem. No problem. Wisteria will winter at Xianglan Mountain and just stopped by Rainbow Island to play for two days, it will be sent back in a couple of days."

The Snow Velvet Spider King's agitated mood suddenly calmed down.

Judging by appearances, Ink Orchid, White Willow, including the little ones, Wisteria and Purple Three Leaf, they are completely unafraid, each more composed than the next.

Are they foolish?

Perhaps not smart, but certainly not foolish.

Dragon Cypress is especially exceedingly intelligent and perpetually prudent.

All these analyses are futile.

All this talk of psychological games is nonsense.

If Dragon Cypress dares to leave Rainbow Island at this time, it surely has enough power to deal with that Kirin Beast Ant King.

Dragon Cypress is absent from the island, so it must be Ink Orchid?

Currently, rumors are spreading across the continent that at the Yu'e Island battlefield, a sudden appearance of a mantis unleashed violent Thunderfire Dual System abilities instantaneously blowing apart a seven hundred-meter Kirin Beast, decapitating the Ant King hidden inside...

The Snow Velvet Spider King stared and examined Ink Orchid up and down, spiritually scanning, then surveying the Ice State Vortex Beast, perplexed:

"Ink Orchid, are you gathering a Vortex Beast Divine Inscription?"

"Yes—"

"Not accomplished yet?"

"Still far from it."

"Have you gathered any other powerful Divine Mark Ability?"

"Secret... No!"

—Keeping secrets from me?

The Snow Velvet Spider King had an answer in its mind, displeased, asked: "When will Dragon Cypress return?"

Wisteria helped by answering: "Dragon Cypress Ant King said it's heading to the far northern Black Fruit Mountain on Cloud Trace Continent to pick up Chinese Clematis and Red Moonseed. The round trip takes four days, it will return tomorrow."

Ink Orchid warmly invited: "Snow Velvet Spider King, I'll use the vortex beast to carry you! Let's talk on the island. Mulberry, Areca, Woodberry, Ghost Fan, White Rice, Black Rice, Blue Catalpa, Snakebark Maple, they all moved here, and are diligently training their combat abilities on the island, come, I'll introduce them to you."
