Astral Gods

Chapter 85 Disappointment

The three brothers immediately informed Lord Purple Plum of the news that the divinely bestowed Red Cherry seed had blossomed.

Lord Purple Plum rushed over and arrived in front of the Red Heart Cherry Divine Seed, which was less than 3 meters tall. Its size, which was 5 meters long and more than 3 meters tall, was enough to look down on this Divine Seed.

Upon receiving notification from the three brothers, it immediately came to check the number of flowers blooming on the Red Heart Cherry God-given Seed.

Because it was only recently discovered, the tree bearing this divinely bestowed seed has not produced many flowers; only a dozen or so buds are poised to bloom.

However, it remembered that when Zishan relayed Ze Huishan's words, he said that the number of divine fruits produced in each batch was very small, with a minimum of one and a maximum of twelve.

However, there are already more than a dozen flower buds here, which is obviously not enough to match the number of fruits that a divinely bestowed seed should have.

Lord Zili asked Zishan somewhat unwillingly, "Zishan, did Lord Zehui say that there would only be a maximum of 12 divine-grade fruits per batch?"

"That's what Lord Zehui said!" Zishan said cautiously, "Lord Zili, the Red Heart Cherry Tree has more than 12 flower buds. Does that mean it's not a divinely bestowed seed?"

"I don't know." Lord Purple Plum swayed its antennae, quite unwilling. It probably understood that this Red Heart Cherry Divine Seed was probably not the legendary divine seed.

But it didn't understand why the Red Heart Cherry Divine Seed hadn't changed, even though the yew tree had spent so much time and raw stones nurturing it, and even halted the growth of the purple wormwood and its life seed.

Moreover, it was well aware that the high-ranking members of the Rhinoceros Golden Beetle tribe, including itself and the Green Bamboo Armor King, all believed that the Red Heart Cherry Divine Gift Seed might be a divine-grade divine gift seed, and they had very high expectations for it. Now they would probably be very disappointed.

The three brothers were also disappointed. They also wanted to possess a divinely bestowed seed, so that they would be the biggest beneficiaries. But now all the insects' hopes were dashed.

Zi Huai, equally unwilling, asked, "Lord Zi Li, should we ask Lord Ze Hui to come and take a look? Perhaps it has a method of judgment that we don't know about."

Lord Zili's heart stirred, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's check again in a couple of days to see if the number of flower buds has increased, and then I'll ask Lord Zehui to come and take a look."

The three brothers waited patiently for another two or three days. The buds of the Red Heart Cherry God-given Seeds increased until they reached over a hundred. Only then did they become restless and asked Lord Purple Plum to invite Lord Ze Hui Mountain to come and take a look.

When Lord Zili told it to check out the divinely bestowed seed, Lord Zehui was quite surprised.

It stayed here for five years. During those five years, the Rhinoceros Tortoise tribe found more than one divine seed, but they never asked it to identify or examine it.

However, since it has nothing else to do after class, it is happy to help with these small favors.

This wasn't Ziling's first time here. Although it wasn't exactly an expert, it was quite familiar with the place. Led by Lord Zili, it arrived in front of the Divine Seed of Red Heart Cherry.

Upon arriving, it saw that the Red Heart Cherry Tree, a gift from God, was less than 3 meters tall, with only a few branches bearing hundreds of flowers. Its expression immediately became somewhat displeased, but it did not say anything immediately.

Lord Zili asked rather eagerly, "Lord Zehui, please take a look at this divinely bestowed seed. Is there anything different about it?"

"What's the difference?" Upon hearing Lord Zili's words, Lord Zehui was quite puzzled. Its size was also enormous, and the main stem of the Red Heart Cherry God-given Seed was not even as thick as its tendrils.

It circled the Red Heart Cherry God-given Seed twice but found nothing special.

Lord Zehui hesitated slightly before asking, "Lord Zili, I don't quite understand what you mean. What do you mean by 'special'?"

Zishan eagerly asked, "Lord Zehui, is it possible that this Red Heart Cherry Blossom, a divinely bestowed seed, could be a divinely superior seed?"

Upon hearing Zishan's words, the Lord of Zehui Mountain chuckled. He had thought that Lord Zili had summoned him for some reason, but it turned out he was just indulging in such a whimsical dream.

"Zishu, didn't I tell you about the probability of a divine-grade divine-given seed being born from an ordinary divine-given seed?"

Zishan lowered her head, somewhat afraid to look at the Lord of Zehui Mountain, and whispered in response, "The probability of a divine-grade divine-given seed appearing among ordinary divine-given seeds is one in ten thousand!"

"Yes, this is just a rough probability. While it cannot be completely trusted, it can serve as a reference standard."

"I heard that ten divine seeds can be found on Banana Island every year. Based on the area, the actual number should be more than that."

But let's put that aside for now. Considering the number of Divine Seeds that appear on Banana Island each year, it would take approximately ten thousand years for a single Divine-grade Divine Seed to be born.

"Yew, it's good to have expectations, but don't be too fixated on them."

For 99% of Zerg warriors, their lifelong dream is to obtain a Divine Seed, and you have already fulfilled their lifelong dream at the intermediate stage.

Moreover, don't you still have a male mulberry tree, a divinely bestowed seed? That's already equivalent to many ordinary divinely bestowed seeds. With the number of divinely bestowed seeds you currently possess, advancing to the King level is only a matter of time.

"If you really want to eat a divine-grade fruit, after you advance to the lord level in the future, I'll see if I can get the leaders of the hundred tribes to get one for you!"

"Oh." Zishan knew that the Lord of Zehui Mountain believed that the Red Heart Cherry God-given Seed was not a divine-grade God-given seed. Since things had come to this, there was nothing it could do.

Then, the Lord of Zehui Mountain bluntly instructed, "You haven't planted this seed of destiny for very long, have you?"

"It was planted last June."

"It's been less than a year, and for a mid-stage Divinely Gifted Seed, its branches and roots are still too small."

It's not the right time for it to bloom, much less bear fruit. You should quickly remove the flowers to conserve its nutrients.

"Okay, I'll pick them right away."

Lord Purple Plum advised, "Leave ten blossoms on the tree for now, and test the quality when the fruit ripens next year."

Following Lord Purple Plum's instructions, the yew tree raised its claws and plucked the flowers off the tree one by one.

After several years of instruction from the Lord of Zehui Mountain, they have developed a very precise control over their power. It is no exaggeration to say that they can now carve flowers on cherries.

With this skill, plucking a few flowers is naturally no problem.

Upon seeing Lord Zehui's judgment, Lord Zili was certain that the Red Heart Cherry Divine Gift Seed could not possibly be a Divine Grade Divine Gift Seed, and his disappointment was beyond words.

However, it wasn't a bug that dwelled on things forever. Since the matter was over, there was no need to bring it up again.

It then brought up another matter: "Purple Acacia, Purple Artemisia, there are places in the Thousand Star Islands that specialize in training Zerg warriors in combat. Would you be interested in going there for training?"
