Chapter 1640 Envy of Xiao Gu
Negris angrily cursed, "What a load of rubbish! What a waste! The entire planet has endless starfire power, which is more than enough for the Earth Flame Grass."
"Oh..." Xiao Gu waved her hand, and the grass that had fallen to the ground seemed to grow legs, jumped up from the ground, and huffed and puffed as it ran to a pile.
"Huh, Plant Herding Technique? You can do that too?" Negris exclaimed in surprise.
This is the innate skill of the tree shepherd. How do you transplant so many trees in a forest to suitable locations? Of course, the tree shepherd drives them there.
Xiao Gu planted a second batch of Earth Flame Grass.
Negris asked, puzzled, "Where did your seed come from? You were reborn bald, where did the seed come from?"
Little Bone scratched his head and opened his palm to show Negris. Tiny seeds of Earth Flame Grass kept emerging from his palm.
"You used the power of chaos to materialize grass seeds? How do you know this technique? You can even materialize chaos?" Negris asked in shock.
Little Bone is essentially just a skeleton, but Chaos Manifestation is an ability that only Void Origins like Ang can possess. Even ordinary Void Origins might not know how to do it. How did a tree-planting skeleton like him learn it?
Xiao Gu looked in Ang's direction and said, "Your Majesty, you taught me."
Okay, Xiao Gu is a junior member, and they can do everything that Ang can.
However, Negris immediately thought of another problem: "You brat, couldn't you have collected the seeds from the last batch of Earthfire Grass? Why did you have to use the power of chaos to materialize them?"
Little Bone said "Oh," ran to the pile of Starfire Grass, waved, and a bunch of grass seeds flew up from their pistils.
Negris was even angrier. Collecting seeds from Starfire Grass wouldn't have been difficult, but this little bone was too lazy to even do that and directly used the power of chaos to materialize them. This spendthrift was just like its king.
Xiao Gu's actions at this moment reminded Negris of Ang, who had infuriated him back then. Why are all these skeletons so infuriating?
Xiao Gu scattered the seeds of the Earth Flame Grass on the tree and continued to leave footprints. As the Earth Flame Grass grew, the World Tree gained powerful vitality and grew rapidly.
As the World Tree grew, Little Bone pressed down on its branches, making them grow in a flat direction, so that all the branches were pressed onto a single plane.
Xiao Gu continued to pluck its leaves, crush them, and spread them back to form a culture medium before planting the ground ivy.
This process was repeated, and it soon grew into a World Tree with a flat canopy. Any uneven spots were simply smoothed out by the small ribs.
The leaves were picked, crushed, and spread on the tree canopy, creating a thick layer of growing medium. The base material itself was loose and had a good heat-insulating effect. In addition to planting ground flaming grass, Xiao Gu also scattered some other plants this time.
Upon seeing this, Negris said, "These are seeds of the Sunburn Moss. The Sunburn Moss is a fire-type magical plant that grows in the high-temperature area near the magma around the edge of a volcano. It can withstand the scouring of magma for a short time. If it is scouring by magma, it will burst open and release more seeds."
"Without the help of magma, it cannot sow seeds. However, it is less resistant to high temperatures than the Earth Flame Grass. Now, Little Bone has piled up a thick culture medium, which has effectively lowered the temperature in the vicinity and created an environment suitable for the growth of the Sunburn Moss," Negris explained the role of Little Bone's actions.
Under the influence of the rapid death aura, the blazing moss quickly covered the entire platform. The vitality it provided allowed the World Tree to grow rapidly, and as it grew, the platform also grew.
As the platform expands, the branches can no longer support the weight of the canopy, so the branches will grow downwards, reaching the ground, and then take root and sprout, just like a banyan tree, one of which can cover the entire planet.
When the canopy expands to a certain extent, the smaller ribs no longer suppress its growth into a plane, but instead allow the edges to grow vertically, forming a high wall. The high wall then closes in, forming a dome that envelops the platform inside.
Negri slapped his back: "Planting balls, he's making planting balls. This guy is more skilled at growing things than you are now."
Ang looked at Xiao Gu with envy and nodded.
Xiao Gu has been planting trees in the dimensional world for nearly 100,000 years. Her tree-planting ability is no weaker than Ang's. Of course, they have a soul connection, and only Xiao Gu understands what Ang does.
However, Ang no longer has much free time to concentrate on planting things, and he is very envious of Xiao Gu's situation.
The World Tree grows a planting ball. Because it is enclosed on all sides, the temperature drops again, allowing more plants with lower temperature requirements to be grown inside.
Instead of planting a tree immediately, Xiao Gu materialized a sprouting divine tree stump, placed it in the center of the space, and then kowtowed to it.
Du... Du... Du... Devout faith energy erupted from Xiao Gu's body. With each tap, the divine tree grew a foot taller. After tapping more than a dozen times, the divine tree grew into a tree five or six meters tall.
Negris gritted his teeth, a hint of irritation in his voice, and said, "This works? Using faith energy to plant a sacred tree?"
Xiao Gu's faith energy was extremely pure and profound, because it had simply prayed for ten thousand years to materialize the Book of Yellow Mud.
Using it to cultivate the sacred tree is a huge waste of its potential; it only takes a dozen or so strokes to make it grow.
The sacred tree has the ability to naturally shelter the space. As it grows, the temperature in the entire planting space drops again, and the air gradually becomes fresher.
Previously, the Earth Flame Grass and the Blazing Sun Moss were crops that did not require air. If we want to plant crops in the future, air and water will be essential.
Negris asked in bewilderment, "Why don't you just use the World Tree to regulate the environment?"
The World Tree is the best regulator of the living environment. Under the protection of the Tree of Life, things can be grown even in the worst environment.
Little Bone said, "The Tree of Life, manifest, is dead."
Negris translated: "The Tree of Life is something you manifested, and it's dead? Can you stop mimicking Ang? I translate for Ang, and now I have to translate for you too."
In the end, Negris couldn't help but complain.
Xiao Gu nodded.
Negris turned to Ang and asked, "Can't the manifested seeds of the Tree of Life grow?"
Ang nodded, then added, "Those who are alive are all in a difficult situation."
Negris understood what Ang meant. Not to mention that the seeds of the manifested Tree of Life could not grow into living things, even the seeds taken from the World Tree would not be easy to grow into living things.
Once a World Tree already exists on a plane, it is very difficult for other World Trees to develop consciousness. The sapling was planted by Ang in the Palace of Rest.
“Ang, give the sapling a live seed,” Negris said.
Ang shook his head: "The God of Life is here."
Negris slapped his back: "That's right, old tree, old tree, aren't you going to come and shelter me?"
From afar came the slow, leisurely voice of the God of Life: "The life force is not enough; wait for it to grow."
Well, the God of Life and Emotions had noticed the situation here long ago, but he didn't come over for fear of diluting the life force.
However, there's no need for the God of Life; Xiao Gu can handle everything on her own.
Once the temperature in the space dropped to a suitable level again, Xiao Gu sprinkled another kind of grass seed, and soon, bright red bamboo shoots began to grow rapidly.
Duroken arrived after receiving the notification. Upon seeing the bamboo, his eyes lit up as he introduced it: "Fire God Bamboo is the best material for making fire magic wands. It contains abundant fire elements, which can amplify the magician's own fire element. With a Fire God Bamboo wand, you don't need to worry about not having fire elements to cast spells even if you fall into the water."
"Moreover, its material is extremely hard. Solid bamboo is hard and heavy. If you hit it, it can shatter a person's skull. If you hit it on the skin, it can leave a scorch mark. It can cause not only physical damage but also fire damage."
"However, in the prime plane, this material is extremely rare, and you can only find it in the fire-type abyss filled with lava."
Seeing these rare magical plants growing in clusters throughout the space, Duroken felt like a dragon that had fallen into a treasure vault, excitedly rubbing his hands together.
