Ant Lord in the Star Realm-Chapter 582 - 551: Regretting Not Meeting Sooner_3

Superior Grade? the Snow Velvet Spider King thought. Superior Grade is even rarer than Divine Grade.

Overwhelmed by too much shocking information, his mind was a little cluttered. He savored the information, pondered it twice, and grasped the crux of it all.

Unable to hide his excitement, the Snow Velvet Spider King asked, "A Divine God-Given Seed of the Soul System? Useless? Could you be more specific?"

"It is called the Night Fragrance Tree," Dragon Cypress explained. "It grants an ability named Night Fragrance, making insects feel, on a soul level, as if they have smelled a fragrance."

"Like this..." Ink Orchid said, gently activating the Night Fragrance ability as she spoke.

The Snow Velvet Spider King uttered, "Uh..." Is that it? The fiery excitement in his heart suddenly cooled. He asked, "That Soul System detection ability isn't yours then?"

"The Soul System ability from Blue Island?" Dragon Cypress countered. "Of course not!"

The Snow Velvet Spider King then asked, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, Ink Orchid, you haven't mastered the Scorching Ability? And the Divine-Grade Molan Seed, you haven't eaten it yourselves?"

"Abilities can wait," Ink Orchid stated. "Dragon Cypress and I aim to awaken all Nine Systems talents in the Lord-Level Stage." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

She then asked, "Snow Velvet Spider King, you seem to have awakened many Elemental Talents as well."

The Snow Velvet Spider King sighed with regret. "Not many. I was too obtuse. When evolving into a Spider King, I suddenly realized I should have tried to master as many Elemental Talents as possible. Currently, I've only awakened the water, fire, earth, metal, and thunder Elemental Talents. The most troublesome thing is that in the territory of Bayonet and Zhibai Continent, I can't find other Divine-Grade Fruits that grant Elemental Talents. Besides, I'm already a 7 Age Period Spider King, with not much room for improvement left."

He continued, "When I evolved into a 4 Age Period Spider King, I stopped engaging in ordinary Origin Force Food trade and focused only on Divine Grade, not to earn Source Stones, but for personal use, to strengthen and improve myself. My requirements are lower than yours. I only hope to find Divine-Grade Fruits that grant Wood Element and Wind System talents, to complete my set of seven Elemental Talents."

Only engaging in Divine-Grade Fruit trade? A 7 Age Period Spider King, who has earned enough Source Stones and is semi-retired? It turns out we all have needs... And we've found the right spider! Dragon Cypress, Ink Orchid, and Black Birch's tentacles shot up, their spirits lifted.

The Snow Velvet Spider King continued, "There is a Divine-Grade Fruit that grants Wood Element Talent, but I've eaten it and failed to awaken the talent. There's also one for the Wind System, but it's on Blue Island, and there's no way to trade for it."

Dragon Cypress quickly said, "Our Wind System Talent comes from a Divine-Grade Fruit called 'Winged Gourd,' and we were lucky enough to successfully awaken it."

"Can you get it?" the Snow Velvet Spider King asked.

"I don't know. I'm not sure," Dragon Cypress replied. "We can ask, though. The item was from the Flame Spider Roving Merchant. It was traded from Chunluo Mountain in the Termite Kingdom of the Ten Thousand Nations Continent and turned into a God-Given Life Seed by a Termite Queen whose life was nearing its end. That Ant King and Queen were planning to break through to the 9 Age Period King-Level and were preparing to leave the Origin Force Star Realm twenty years ago. I don't know if they've left."

"Oh! Then you must ask!" the Snow Velvet Spider King exclaimed. "I'm willing to pay double the price! Or, I also have control over Life-Extending Divine Goods. If they don't want to leave, I can help extend their lifespan by a hundred years."

"We'll ask later!" Dragon Cypress assured him.

"What about the Divine-Grade Fruit that grants Wood Element Talent?" the Snow Velvet Spider King pressed. "I need that even more."

"Unfortunately, it's gone," Dragon Cypress said. "However, you can inquire with caravans from the Ten-thousand Tribes Continent; there might be others."

The Snow Velvet Spider King fell silent for a moment. Then, his eyes shifted, and he curiously asked, "Are there any Divine-Grade Fruits that grant Soul System, Strength System, or Life System talents on the Ten-thousand Tribes Continent or the Ten Thousand Nations Continent?"

Dragon Cypress replied, "I've only heard about a Divine-Grade Fruit that grants Life System Talent, but that's limited to hearsay. I don't know its name, where it comes from, or whether we can get it. As for Soul System and Strength System, there's been no word of them at all."

The Snow Velvet Spider King was stunned for a moment. "The Life System is also very good!" he then exclaimed. "I could still eat one!"

Ink Orchid had been excited, but as she listened, she suddenly realized a serious problem and urgently asked, "Snow Velvet Spider King, are there any Divine-Grade Fruits that grant Soul System or Strength System talents produced in the Southern Hemisphere?"

"I've visited all tribes and kingdoms on two continents, and I've never heard of them," the Snow Velvet Spider King replied. "I'm afraid such Divine Goods don't exist."

Ink Orchid's eyes dimmed. Not heard of in the Northern Hemisphere either, she thought. Then am I not... Without such Divine Goods, it seems impossible to complete the Nine Systems talents.

To their surprise, after a brief assessment, both parties discovered that even by adding up all the talent-granting Divine Goods from the four continents in both hemispheres, they still couldn't complete the Nine Systems.

An unspoken silence settled between them.

After a while, the Snow Velvet Spider King lamented, "Ants are really better! They're born with innate Strength System Talent."

He then changed the subject, asking, "What about the Divine-Grade Fruits that grant abilities? What's available in the Northern Hemisphere? Are there any particularly powerful ones?"

"There aren't many Divine-Grade Fruits that grant abilities," Dragon Cypress said. "As for the particularly powerful ones, there are two in the Flame Spider Kingdom on the Ten-thousand Tribes Continent. One is called the One-Glimpse Flower, and the other is the Five-Colored Graftwood."

He continued, "The One-Glimpse Flower produces a fruit called the One-Glimpse Fruit. It features a single flower and a single fruit, with a six-year cycle. This fruit grants a one-time consumable ability called 'Heaven Returning Glimpse,' which essentially reverts a plant to its seed form..."

"What?" The Snow Velvet Spider King was startled. "That ability is somewhat..." he said, his expression grave, "it's very likely to provoke conflicts between kingdoms!"

"Indeed," Dragon Cypress agreed. "The One-Glimpse Flower originally emerged in the Great Cornelian Kingdom, which was formed by a coalition of the Spotted Leaf Bettle Tribe..."
