Astral Ant Tribe

Molan built two mountains in Shilanxing. One is Molan Mountain in the subtropical zone of the northern hemisphere, and the other is Catalpa Mountain in the cold temperate zone of the northern hemisphere.

The insects that were born in low latitudes took root in Molan Mountain and were taught by Molan himself.

Insects born in high latitudes take root in Catalpa Mountain.

Catalpa has also evolved to the lord level. He has studied with Mo Lan for 130 years and can recite a few poems. It will definitely be no problem to take care of the little warriors who have taken root in Catalpa Mountain.

at present,

Excluding Catalpa, there are four little warriors, namely:

Two-color evergreen beetle warrior, hemp oak.

The long-winged Locust warrior, Zisha.

Li Xiao is a sixty-year-old warrior and Wulunzhu.

And, Molan's close relative, the Peacock Mantis Warrior, Baiji, is also named after the orchid grass.

Quercus japonica and Zisha settled in Catalpa Mountain, led by Catalpa japonica, to cultivate orchard woodland and manage plants.

Wu Lunzhu and Bai Ji settled in Molan Mountain and were taught by Molan himself.

…

In fact, more than 90% of the Zerg warriors in this world are not particularly smart by nature, but they are not stupid either, and their elemental talents are neither high nor low. Most insects don't have much difference when they are born.

The fate of the Zerg warriors is more determined by the environment.

These little guys are undoubtedly lucky. They have caught up with a good period. Now is the time when the Pandan Chamber of Commerce is growing and is in urgent need of insects.

Long Bai and Mo Lan are willing to spend resources to cultivate them.

In the future, more Zerg warriors will be born in the azure star system, but they will not receive such good treatment.

…

…

Hanlan Star has more than 200 million square kilometers of rocky ground that needs desertification.

Long Baishou established a separate nest in Hongying Mountain and continued to cultivate specialized stone soldiers and mountain ants. He arranged them in various mountain areas and controlled them with character commands to let them work on their own.

The transformation of Hanlan Planet is based on Mo Lan's ideas, and it is managed into a unique life planet dominated by succulent plants.

At present, the vegetation coverage rate of Hanlanxing is only about 10%.

There is a long way to go.

Long Bai used Wang Baizi and Shenpin Diluo fruit sent by Juniper.

Completely cracking the fusion purple technology star core requires three steps:

The first step is to combine the three soul-based abilities of Dinghun, Leechhun, and Diluochi into one and integrate them into the ultimate beast star core.

The second step is to exercise the soul's ability to imitate and transform, and master it in depth.

The third step is to imitate the soul of the artist and crack the fused purple-red technology star core.

Long Bai's daily work has an additional ability exercise.

There are Chaos Gyro Types 1-3, which successfully combined three soul abilities into one in just fifty years.

After a certain amount of ‘artistic processing’,

Long Bai bluntly named the combined ability ‘Artistic Soul’.

Continuing to borrow the power of Type 1-3 Chaos Gyro, it only took 30 years to successfully combine and join the Ultimate Beast Star Core.

The first step is completed.

Long Bai then tried to imitate the soul of King Zuo who was closest to him; then the souls of foreign warriors such as Mo Lan, Qing Ma, Hong Ma, and Hong Jian; and then the souls of spiders such as Palm, Yu Teng, and Bai Wei...

Progress has been rapid, and in only 30 years, the soul transformation and imitation ability has reached the standard.

…

Hongying Mountain, deep in the ant nest.

In the king's nest,

Long Bai lay quietly on the ground, motionless, his super brain power continued to activate, and his soul kept changing.

suddenly,

Standing motionless in front of him, the artist's empty eyes flashed.

"In terms of soul, my talent seems to be pretty good~"

"Such a difficult imitation took less than ten years..."

Long Bai murmured and thought,

On the forehead, a four-legged, upright, seven or eight centimeters tall 'trumpet artist' with purple skin slowly emerged.

The top of the head is covered with fine nine-color tentacles, and the original energy of the soul is mixed with spiritual power into the body, with a trace of soul hidden inside.

——The soul of art.

The soul of art kicked off its legs and shot into the artist's forehead, which was the origin of the beast, and disappeared in a flash.

The combination of soul and body,

The artist's empty eyes light up with brilliant nine-color light.

Long Bai controls the 'Art Soul' and tries to contact the 'Purple Technology Star Core'...

The blue-purple original energy veins shine, actively absorbing the soul of art.

With ease, the cracking and fusion of the soul level of Zihong Technology's star core was completed.

Long Bai calmly thought about it.

There are still only six space abilities: space blade, teleportation, jump, gravity, universal compass and dimensional space.

A spherical space with a diameter of about 1,200 meters and a three-color crystal barrier of blue, purple and red.

The diameter of an ordinary technological star core is 800 meters.

Calculated by volume, the dimensional space attached to the purple-red technological star core is more than three times that of the ordinary technological star core.

"Huh!"

"This is……"

Long Bai's consciousness scanned and found that there was a 'black tower' standing at the bottom of the crystal space.

Thoughts turn rapidly, thoughts move,

In front of Long Bai, on the artist's forehead, an eye formed, tilted his head, aimed at the ground of the royal nest, and projected an incandescent beam.

A black, small 'tower' landed smoothly on the ground.

The appearance is almost identical to the ‘White Tower’ of the White Tower Civilization.

It is only twelve or thirteen centimeters tall. It is neither gold nor stone. It is made of a space material somewhat similar to a technological star core.

Long Bai stepped forward, tentatively, and touched with his tentacles.

A piece of information appears directly in the soul's consciousness:

[I don’t know when, I started thinking,

What is the meaning of life?

Not art,

It’s not the evolution of the Force;

It’s not a scientific truth,

Not even power or wealth...

Thinking without answers until the end of time,

I think the meaning of life lies in the moment of tranquility after the hustle and bustle.

O intelligent life in the future universe, Peisistratos greets you again and sends you his blessings:

I hope you will never understand the purpose of this thing]

"???"

"bless?"

Long Bai had a question on his head.

He pondered deeply and glanced back and forth mentally, unable to see the purpose of the 'black tower' in front of him at all.

The control artist stepped forward, held up the 'Black Tower' with his front feet, and tried to inject original energy.

no response.

"..."

Long Bai raised his paw to take it and looked through it repeatedly. It was a gray-black tower-shaped sculpture with a slightly clumsy carving technique, without even a trace of original energy.

"hiss……"

"It doesn't look like a technological artifact or a creation of the Force?"

"what?"

"It can't be a work of art, right?"

"What's the meaning?"

Long Bai was puzzled, but combined with the "Journey of Time and Space of Peisistratos" he had seen before, he had a vague feeling.

It seems that something extremely bad has happened to the artist...

Could such bad things transcend epochs, experience the birth and death of the universe, and be left behind to the new universe era?

"You won't say that the White Tower civilization was preserved through some method, right?"

"But what about the artists? Why did they break away from the White Tower Civilization? They seem to be standing on the opposite side of the White Tower Civilization..."

Long Bai activated his super-brain power, retrieved his memory, and carefully screened every character and every description in "The Time and Space Journey of Peisistratos".

Repeated deductions.

The artist grew up in a privileged environment, received the best education, and had smooth evolution of the Force and career development. This created his character of enthusiasm, integrity, tolerance, sensibility, and the ideal pursuit of beauty and tranquility.

The artist has traveled to major galaxies to study, is proficient in art, technology, and the Force, and is familiar with politics, history, philosophy, economics and other civilized subjects.

Later, he served as the leader of the White Tower Civilization and developed his flexible style of conduct and his perseverance.

The artist is an almost perfect, advanced intelligent being, especially his moral character, which is pure and flawless.

Did the artist leave the White Tower Civilization on his own initiative, or were he excluded and kicked out of the White Tower Civilization?

Why is this so?

"Could it be that in order to cope with the destruction of the universe and continue the fire of civilization, the White Tower Civilization has embarked on an...evil path that cannot be accepted by artists?"

"You won't say that the Zerg civilization is not the only surviving civilization in the current universe, right?"

Long Bai's expression became solemn, his tentacles drooped as he thought, his eyes darkened.

For a long time, for a long time,

"This is not something I should think about."

"There are three major masters and the true god of nature supporting it."

"The opposition between black and white, I guess, this 'Black Tower' is specially used to deal with the 'White Tower'..."

Long Bai raised his tentacles, and as usual, the pokeweed divine pattern on his forehead shone, preparing to hide the black tower.

Strangely, this thing didn't move at all.

——Special space system creation.

——Phytolacca Space still can’t contain it.

Long Bai placed the things on the ground, turned his head, controlled the artist, opened the third pupil on his forehead, and projected an incandescent beam...

The black tower still stood steadily on the red rock ground, motionless.

"Hey!"

"It's so weird!"

"The dimensional space of the technological star core cannot be contained..."

"The ability of the space system to dominate the strong? It's a bit strong!"

"..."

Long Bai muttered, grabbed something, and looked through it again. An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he suddenly thought of Mo Lan.

——Throne of Glory!

——Could this thing be related to the Throne of Glory?

Strictly speaking, the artist left behind five special artifacts: technological star core, battle armor, starship, as well as the Throne of Radiance and the Black Tower.

in,

The technological star core, battle armor, and starship are a set from the White Tower Civilization.

The Throne of Glory and the Black Tower were made by the artist himself.

Maybe there will be some connection.

Long Bai pondered, and as soon as he had an idea, the artist shrank, turning into a little blue-purple-red water, and submerged into the star core of his forehead.

Holding the black tower in his jaws, he walked out of the ant nest.

…

…

Shi Lanxing.

The dirt square behind Molan Mountain.

The power of earth and stone was condensed, and a stone pillar more than 300 meters high stood in the center.

Mo Lan brought out the method used by the Linnan Sacred Tree to train young warriors, and directed the peacock and mantis warrior Bai Ji to run around the dirt square, climb vertically along the stone pillars, and brave the scorching sun to exercise his physique and temper his will. .

"Longbai Ant King~"

Wu Lunzhu, a sixty-year-old warrior from Lixia who was just an intermediate warrior, stood above Mo Lan and waved his tentacles to greet Long Bai.

"Ignore it!"

"No distractions!"

Mo Lan scolded sternly.

Baiji: "..."

Long Bai: "..."

Bai Ji, who had just stopped and wanted to take the opportunity to take a breath, had no choice but to keep running.

"Chief Longbai, is something wrong?"

Mo Lan's tone was serious and serious.

"I am busy……"

"What's that in your jaws?"

"have no idea."

"???"

"Mo Lan, have you seen the painting depicting the White Tower of the White Tower Alliance? Do you think this thing looks like a tower?"

"oh--"

"Black Tower?"

Mo Lan tilted her head, looked at it carefully, and waved her tentacles vigorously.

"Baiji! Don't run away. Take Wu Lunzhu with you and go back to the cave to rest. I have important matters to discuss with Chief Longbai."

"OK--"

Baiji stopped suddenly, turned around, and stepped forward quickly.

Mo Lan activated the hydra tentacles, rolled up the Wulun Pillar above her head, pressed it on Bai Ji's forehead, and warned: "The weather is hot. You go back to the cave to escape the heat, and you are not allowed to run around."

"good--"

"Know it."

Bai Ji and Wu Lunzhu happily agreed.

Send away two little guys.

Mo Lan activated the sun curtain ability, and the soul barrier shrouded it.

"Long Bai, succeeded? Completely controlled the purple-red technology star core?"

"Roughly the same."

"Is this 'black tower' opened from the dimensional space of the technological star core?"

"The leader of Molan, Bingxue, is smart."

"What is this for?"

"I don't know. But this thing seems very important. When I touched it, I received a message left by the artist in colorful robes..."

Long Bai repeated the information.

"oh!"

"This is a very sour poem."

"An artist's artistic attainments may not necessarily be brilliant."

"What do you mean by holding it with your jaw teeth? Give it to me? Thank you~"

Mo Lan thanked him happily, rolled up the hydra's tentacles, and pulled the black tower over unceremoniously, holding it in front of his eyes for inspection.

"Sculpture? Simple and simple, the aesthetics and skills are barely passable..."

Mo Lan swung his tentacles and commented. Suddenly, the ultimate Mo Lan star core on his forehead automatically erupted and shone. The black tower shrank rapidly, turned into black spots, and disappeared into the star core.

"ah--"

Mo Lan was startled.

"Um?"

"Cymbidium?"

Long Bai was startled and stared at Mo Lan with piercing eyes.

Mo Lan froze on the spot for more than ten seconds, then jumped up suddenly and cheered in surprise: "This thing comes with the Glory Throne!"

Saying,

The pokeweed divine pattern on the forehead shone brightly, and brilliant colored light surged out and flowed, drawing an elegant arc in the air, disappearing into the ultimate ink orchid star core on the forehead and disappearing.

"Cymbidium?"

Long Bai was alert and called out again.

"Wow!"

"Complete?"

"Perfect!"

Molan was ecstatic.

"Long Bai! The Black Tower itself is part of the Glory Throne!"

"No! The Throne of Glory is part of the Black Tower."

Molan jumped up and down,

The ultimate ink orchid star core on his forehead flashed, and a 'color tower' shining with brilliant colors floated out.

The texture is gray-black, densely packed, and covered with crystalline spots smaller than sesame seeds. Some are shining, while others are refracting light, and then bursting out colorful lights of different colors.

three-story tower,

There is a round bead embedded at the top of the tower, which shines brightly.

"Long Bai, look!"

As Mo Lan spoke, the colorful tower suspended in front of him rotated slowly. The crystal beads attached to the tower peeled off and flew out, rotating around the tower to form a 'galaxy' model with a diameter of more than 300 meters.

Above the 'Galaxy', the original throne held Mo Lan up slowly.

Long Bai stepped away, with a serious expression on his face, staring straight ahead.

——This is the glorious throne in its complete form?

"Long Bai! Come up~!"

Mo Lan stood high on the throne and waved his tentacles vigorously to signal.

"Mo Lan, what's going on?" Long Bai asked.

"The Black Tower can store the Throne of Glory! My own Ultimate Meran Star Core can also store the Black Tower! This is convenient! It can be released and used as soon as the thought comes to mind."

"Molan, don't be happy yet. Let me ask you, is the Black Tower integrated into your ultimate Molan star core?"

"It seems like it, but it doesn't seem like it. It's more like an artifact, 'hosted' on my ultimate Meran star core."

"Is that so?"

Long Bai was doubtful, sensed his soul, scanned his mental power, thought, and asked:

"Molan, how did you contract it?"

"When the spiritual power and consciousness come into contact, it will happen naturally."

"I've tried again and again, why can't I do it?"

"Are you too stupid?"

Mo Lan said seriously: "It should be the reason for the Glory Throne!"

Long Bai asked: "Then how did you contract to the Glory Throne in the first place?"

Mo Lan: "I scanned it with my mental power and felt that I could control it. I tried to inject a ray of soul power, and then it was done."

"Obviously, when the Black Tower and the Throne of Radiance were created, no racial boundaries were set."

"Is that so? That's pretty much what I guessed..."

Long Bai pondered and asked, "Mo Lan, what's the function? Please take a closer look and see if there are any new functions."

Mo Lan buried his head and thought for two seconds, then raised his head and thought for two seconds.

The Throne of Glory converged and turned into thousands of star points attached to the tower body.

Mo Lan waved his tentacles, and the earth element energy exploded, making the earth ground smooth and hardened.

The colorful pagoda landed on the ground, quickly enlarged, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a twelve-sided pagoda with a height of more than thirty meters and shining colorful lights.

The top of the tower is also inlaid with an orb with a diameter of more than thirty centimeters, which is the largest crystal ball at the core of the Glory Throne.

"Long Bai, there is a door!"

Mo Lan ducked and landed in front of the door three steps above.

Injecting the original force, the gray-black wall melted like solid ice and turned into purple-red, rippling gently like a stream of water.

Stargate-like portal.

Mo Lan took a look and stepped in directly without thinking too much.

Long Bai thought for a while and tried to reach out his paw to sense the touch. It was indeed a teleportation portal.

Step forward.

There was a flash of white light, and the scene in front of him changed.

The twelve-sided space with a height of five to six meters and a dome covered with star points is about thirty meters in diameter. It is wide, empty and bright.

Using advanced space system capabilities, the interior space is much larger than it looks from the outside.

There is a gray-black crystal wall and an upward staircase.

Mo Lan had already rushed to the stairs and was climbing up.

Long Bai ducked and followed.

The second floor is also an open space.

further up,

The third floor was equally empty.

There are only three floors in total.

Mo Lan rummaged around for a while and was extremely disappointed.

"Cymbidium?"

Long Bai prompted: "Try to sense again? What is the use of the three levels of space in this tower?"

Mo Lan immersed himself in sensing for a while and said: "It seems to be of no use. If we have to find a function, then it should be that insects can live in it. Similar to your throne of control, it can automatically absorb and gather the natural force in the space. The force concentration is slightly higher than outside."

Mo Lan thought for a moment, raised her paw and waved, and the light on the dome went out.

The space inside the tower turned into darkness.

He raised his claws and waved again, and the dome lit up with dots of orange light, making the space bright and dim.

With another wave, the number of bright spots increases and the brightness of the space increases.

With another wave, the dome lit up with a large number of incandescent light spots, and the entire space became shiny.

Mo Lan: "The light intensity is divided into three levels and can be adjusted according to needs."

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai: "Is there any more?"

Mo Lan: "No more."

Molan recited: "O intelligent life in the future universe, Peisistratos greets you again and sends his blessing: I hope you will never understand the purpose of this thing."

Mo Lan: "The artist's blessing has taken effect. I can't understand the purpose of this thing."

"..."

Long Bai choked up again, raised his head and looked around, and asked: "Can you confirm that there are no hidden dangers?"

Mo Lan: "I didn't notice any hidden dangers."

Long Bai: "Forget it. Let's go out. Put your things away and don't take them out to show off."

Mo Lan was angry: "Ant, what did you say? How could I show off? Didn't you ask me to test it?"

Long Bai: "I said in the future..."

Long Bai waved his tentacles vigorously and greeted: "Let's go! Mo Lan, I will take you to the deep space of the universe, and I will also test the space jump ability of the purple-red technology star core."

…

…

The speed of the first-level star spider left in the blue star system is only 1 times the speed of light, and the journey may take three to five years.

Long Bai called Qing Ma over, led Bai Ji and Wu Lun Zhu, two little ones, regularly distributed ant king honey to them to evolve and grow, led them to cultivate orchards, and taught them botany knowledge.

With a simple arrangement, I asked Yuto to join me, and Yuto drove the Star Spider and set off. (End of chapter)
