Chapter 38 Cultivating plant mutations!

"Sixth!"

Hearing the meaning expressed in the centipede's cry, Xia Fan couldn't help but laugh and curse in his heart.

This guy himself is extremely poisonous and has many children and grandchildren, but in his eyes, this locust tree with psychedelic and extremely poisonous effects is still a rare treasure!
Xia Fan thought about it, then glanced at the entrance of the Colorful Valley and growled, "Plant the locust trees over there, as a line of defense for the base camp."

The place he designated was the narrowest part of the Colorful Valley and also the easiest place to enter the valley, but they all had other routes in and out.

Placing the locust tree there can slightly deter intruders when they are not noticing.

Up to now, only these three have returned with their most valued natural treasures. Then they stayed for a while and continued to collect natural treasures from various places. It can be said that they came and went in a hurry.

These three ferocious beasts are either extremely fast overlords of the sky or they have their own tribes helping them, so it is normal for them to be fast.

As time passed, more and more natural treasures gathered in the Colorful Canyon. In just two or three days, there were more than a dozen kinds.

Although these rare treasures temporarily placed near the Tianyuan Fruit Tree are not the extremely rare treasures that Xia Fan knew in his previous life, their value is also extraordinary.

“This tree is planted here.”

"Ask your children and grandchildren to guard the ginseng and don't let it run away."

"And you..."

At this time, the magic cat was enthusiastically commanding a group of giant apes and poisonous centipedes to return the treasures they had harvested to their places one by one, making the valley look less messy.

Seeing that it was enjoying itself, Xia Fan did not disturb it, but just watched with a smile.

Now, he feels extremely satisfied, knowing that as time goes by, this place will be filled with treasures and become a real paradise!

"I have finally taken the first official step towards my goal of dominating the world."

Xia Fan thought about it with emotion and felt happy about it.

"Boss!"

At this moment, Hu Er, who had disappeared for three days, finally showed up.

Xia Fan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Hu Er holding a handful of bloody grass in his mouth. He came to him with a look of seeking credit in his eyes. "This is a natural treasure I found, but I don't know what it is used for at the moment."

"I did know where some of the other natural treasures were before, but... they were all eaten by the nine-tailed fox."

Xia Fan didn't care about this. Instead, he looked at the blood-red grass with surprise and excitement.

He recognized it at a glance. This was the famous "Blood Spirit Grass" from his previous life.

To confirm, he roared at Hu Er a few times, "Are there a lot of ferocious beast bones left near where this bloody grass grows?"

"How did you know, Boss?"

Hu Er was stunned.

It also searched for a long time in its original territory before discovering this rare treasure, which was indeed as Xia Fan said.

However, it clearly remembered that its boss had never been to that place.

"Sure enough, it is indeed it!"

Xia Fan did not respond to this question.

It walked to Hu Er's side, observed him back and forth for a long time, and then gradually suppressed its excitement and growled, "You really brought back a good treasure this time." "Next time if there is an invasion by foreign beasts, you can choose the rest except the little guy's crystal core first."

"Thank you, boss!"

Hu Er was very happy.

It didn't know that this bunch of blood grass was grown by chance after absorbing a large amount of blood from ferocious beasts.

Moreover, the Blood Spirit Grass has only one function - to help plants develop intelligence!
As long as the Blood Spirit Grass is planted next to plants, it does not need too much care. Over time, it will develop intelligence and mutate.

After the blood rain, not only humans and beasts, but even a large number of plants underwent many changes, otherwise there would not be these natural treasures.

"In the previous life, the imperial capital used the blood spirit grass to cultivate a willow tree."

Xia Fan's thoughts gradually drifted away, and memories emerged bit by bit, "The millions of willow branches of that willow tree are indestructible. The imperial capital has used it to resist countless invasions of ferocious beasts."

"Even a king-level beast is no match for that willow tree!"

Because no matter in the past life or now, the Blood Spirit Grass is not so easy to find. Therefore, after the emperor in the previous life cultivated the willow tree, he did not keep it to himself and directly announced to all humans the method of controlling the willow tree - as long as you feed the plant some of your blood from time to time, you can make it obey you!

"However, in the previous life, the imperial capital seemed to have hidden a key piece of information, but the word hidden is a bit inappropriate."

Xia Fan's memory of the Blood Spirit Grass became clearer and clearer. "When using the Blood Spirit Grass to cultivate plants, it is best to choose plants that are older. For example, the imperial capital in the previous life once announced that in addition to willow trees, there are also pine trees, cypress trees, ginkgo trees, and other trees that can be cultivated."

"Because this is the only way to ensure that the selected plants will be born with intelligence."

Thinking of this, Xia Fan raised his head and looked around the valley.

There are countless plants growing in the Yunxia Mountains, and the scope of human influence is very small. Moreover, this place is deep in the Yunxia Mountains and has almost never been set foot by humans.

Therefore, there must be something growing here that can give birth to intelligence with the help of the blood spirit grass.

"Come on, follow me around."

Xia Fan took Hu Er with him and started searching in the colorful valley, as if they were on patrol.

In fact, according to his understanding, although the older the selected plants are, the better, there is still an important factor - flexibility.

Otherwise, in the previous life, there was a pine tree next to the imperial capital that was older than the willow tree, but why didn't they choose the latter?
"Boss, what are we looking for?"

After walking for a while, Hu Er realized that his boss had been paying attention to something, but he couldn't find it, so he asked curiously, growling, "Maybe I can help."

"You know, there are plants that have been growing here for a long time?"

Hu Er was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he took the initiative to lead the way, "Boss, I know where it is."

After a while, the two tigers and one cat arrived at the edge of the valley, where there were towering ancient trees. However, Xia Fan stared at them for a while and judged that although these ancient trees were old enough, they were still not the most suitable.

"Huh? Why are there so many weeds here?"

Suddenly, Xia Fan noticed that a certain forest was covered by large vines and leaves. He walked over curiously, and then shouted in surprise, "This is it!"

In his sight, an extremely thick ancient vine was coiling around the nearby towering trees, relying on them to drive it all the way towards the sunlight.

The roots of this ancient vine are extremely developed, and it is obvious at first glance that it is very old!
