Chapter 20 - Insect Tide

The next day, just after breakfast, Lin Yi received a notice from the Supernatural Forum. The package had arrived.

At this moment, the carnivorous flower was still not cultivated. Lin Yi decisively gave up on cultivating it and drove to the Supernatural Building.

The mailing function in the Supernatural Supervision Bureau was faster than all the deliveries on the market at the moment, and it was extremely safe.

Actually, he could have sent it directly to his home, but Lin Yi did not want to expose his address, so he chose to send it to the Supernatural Building.

Duan Yangping was not surprised. In his opinion, this Senior must have an office in the Supernatural Building, or the spiritual plant cultivation base was built in the Supernatural Building.

Possessing such profound knowledge required a huge amount of financial resources. Other than the Supernatural Supervision Bureau, he could not think of any other organization in China that could do this.

Verify the message and remove the package.

Looking at the few spiritual plants that were carefully protected, Lin Yi was completely relieved.

The service staff at the courier station looked at Lin Yi enviously. To be able to receive such valuable items at such a young age, this young man must have a very powerful background.

It had to be known that the spiritual plants on the market were extremely expensive, and it was useless to use cash. They could only be bought with points.

But this young man could receive four stalks at once.

The difference between people was really huge.

Of course, Lin Yi didn't care what a courier thought. He put the spiritual plant in the van and quickly went home.

Taking out four spiritual plants, Lin Yi ignored the other three and looked straight at the one at the side.

The roots of the Breakthrough Fruit Tree were lush, but the upper half was extremely thin. The grass was also rather withered, looking like grass.

After careful examination, Lin Yi had a comprehensive understanding of the growth state of the Breakthrough Fruit Tree.

The roots were already prepared, but there was not enough spiritual energy in the air. Its trunk had not developed at all. If this continued, this Breakthrough Fruit Tree would not be far from death.

"Such a divine tree was actually abused like this. What a sin." Lin Yi felt very regretful.

However, if it had not been abused like this and allowed it to develop and gradually show its magical abilities, he would not have obtained it so easily.

In the end, it was just a coincidence.

Lin Yi immediately planted the Breakthrough Fruit Tree into the spiritual soil that he had prepared in advance. Ordinary soil could not support its consumption. Only spiritual soil that was rich in spiritual energy and sufficient nutrients could support such a divine tree.

These spirit soil were nourished by burying a few spirit sunflowers in the soil. The spirit soil in the natural world was usually nourished by withered spiritual plants. To Lin Yi, spirit sunflowers were planted outside the courtyard. It was very worth it to use some of them to nourish the spirit soil.

When he found out that the Breakthrough Fruit Tree had been sent out, he began to nourish the spiritual soil. Under the acceleration of the Azure Wood spiritual energy, he quickly completed it and obtained about a square meter of spiritual soil this morning.

After planting the Breakthrough Fruit Tree and giving the green wood spirit energy, the entire body of the Breakthrough Fruit Tree completely relaxed. The roots at the bottom quickly grew and spread, forming a dense network of roots in the spiritual soil, greedily absorbing the nutrients in the spiritual soil.

The brownish-black spiritual soil turned yellow at a visible rate and became ordinary soil.

Lin Yi was not surprised. He quickly buried a few spirit sunflower seeds that had been hollowed out.

The Spirit Sunflower seeds were the seeds that the Spirit Sunflower bore. It was the continuation of its life. After the Spirit Sunflower bore the seed, the Spirit Sunflower's life came to an end.

It could be used as fertilizer to nourish the spiritual soil.

At this moment, Lin Yi realized that cultivating the Carnivorous Flower did not seem to be fruitless. At the very least, he had obtained such a useful Spirit Sunflower.

Under the effect of the Azure Wood spiritual energy, the Spirit Sunflower quickly fused into the spiritual soil and became its main source of nutrients.

The Breakthrough Fruit Tree absorbed it very quickly. Fortunately, Lin Yi also had a lot of Spirit Sunflowers. He replenished as much as the Breakthrough Fruit Tree absorbed.

This absorption was a necessary process. This was a loss that the Breakthrough Fruit Tree was spontaneously making up for before. It was just like eating too much after being hungry for a long time. Moreover, plants were not like humans. They did not have stomach bloating. It could absorb as much as it could.

During this absorption process, the Breakthrough Fruit Tree also underwent a very obvious change. The weak trunk hidden in the grass quickly became plump and thick. Soon, it broke through the wrapping of the surrounding grass and trees and revealed its true wooden appearance.

At this moment, it looked a little like a fruit tree.

When the entire absorption process stopped, the Breakthrough Fruit Tree had already grown to the size of a shrub. It was lush and full of vitality.

It had completely grown, and its magical properties were slowly revealed.

The birds, which were standing quietly on the eaves of the house, chirped. They could sense the powerful attraction of the entire tree to them as if it would do them a lot of good if they just docked on it.

Little Black also ran out and leaned against the Breakthrough Fruit Tree with an intoxicated expression.

Lin Yi smiled. He, who was also by the tree, naturally sensed the change. The circulation of his cultivation technique was about 10% faster than before.

Before it bore fruit, the Breakthrough Fruit Tree showed its effect on cultivation. As expected of a divine tree.

"But this way, the problem of killing the insects gets bigger."

Lin Yi suddenly sensed something. He frowned and sighed softly.

As the scent drifted away, the insects in the mountains suddenly became anxious at some point. They turned their heads in the same direction in unison.

'Qifeng Mountain… is in this direction.'

After cultivating the Breakthrough Fruit Tree, 20 minutes later, a dark cloud appeared not far from Qifeng Mountain. The cloud was accompanied by a loud buzzing sound like cannon fire.

Lin Yi looked at the dark clouds, his face grim.

This was not a natural dark cloud, but a swarm of flying insects. The swarm was a complicated one, consisting of mosquitoes, flies, bees, butterflies, beetles, and so on. From a distance, it looked terrifying.

Moreover, there was also a dense group of insects moving quickly under this dark cloud. An astonishing number of insects surged over like a black tide.

"We have to let Xiaoyi participate in such a good thing."

Zhao Aiguo looked at the summons in the forum and had an idea. He picked up his phone and called Lin Yi.

But when he called a few times, no one answered.

"What are you working on? You're not even answering your phone." Zhao Aiguo felt helpless, but when he saw the deadline message on the summons, he stood up. "Forget it. I'd better go up the mountain and inform him. I can't miss such a good opportunity to earn points."

Zhao Aiguo had often come to Qifeng Mountain before. He and Lin Yi's father were brothers who had grown up together. When they grew up, they were especially close and often visited each other.

Previously, when Zhao Wanting was busy, he was also the one delivering food for Lin Yi, so he was very familiar with this mountain path.
