Chapter 524 (2/2)

Shao Xuan had wrapped the rest of the roots in some soil and leaves to prevent its scent from leaking out. He wasn’t sure if the scent would attract any animals but he wasn’t willing to risk that.

Looking at the still wriggling flying squirrel and the large Vein of the Sky, Shao Xuan’s eyes filled with passion.

A worthwhile trip!

Shao Xuan circled the area and roughly estimated that there were no less than fifty Veins of the Sky here. It wasn’t as many plants at the Ji family field but he was satisfied. As long as there were plants here, there was still a possibility of getting the seeds which they could use to plant.

Shao Xuan also guessed that after so many years, the reason fifty plants could survive was mostly because of the largest plant there. Just like the Thousand Grain Gold, in the battle for nutrients, only the winner gets to live, the losers only become nutrients for the winner.

Thousand of years had passed, with countless seeds that fell on the ground and countless that germinated, only these fifty survived.

These were the last victors of the place. When the soil quality gets poorer and poorer some would die out. Shao Xuan was lucky to have found these remaining few. If possible, Shao Xuan hoped to bring all of them back to the tribe.

If the tribe could provide sufficient nutrients and space for them to grow, would these Veins of the Sku start a new round of madness?

Nobody has managed to inherit the items those three Ji family members left after a thousand years. The longevity leaf doesn’t count as it was actually from the Yi family, the true treasure that they left was those Veins of the Sky that were growing nearby no one noticed.

Shao Xuan took a deep breath to calm himself down. He didn’t know why they brought something the Yi family owned here or how they were as people but he wanted to thank them for what they had left here.

After looking around, Shao Xuan walked up the small hill.

This was the tallest hill in the area.

He wanted to take a good look at his surroundings from an elevated point, in case he left out something.

The view from the top showed the barren land where he found the Veins of the Sky. There weren’t many plants around them, the ones were all looked sickly or weak.

The scanned the area bit by bit. He looked further ahead after he was done with the area near the cave. In that area, there were many kinds of plants fighting for nutrient, engaging in silent warfare.

It was a normal forest land without any invasive species with the Vein of the Sky. Shao Xuan was about to leave to dig more Veins of the Sky out when he notices something familiar.

That was…

He looked closer and his eyes nearly popped out.

Ca...Cabbage*?!
