Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

Gu Wanqing was truly envious.

Although compound fertilizers are not as sought-after as gene-enhancing or psychotropic drugs, they are still best-selling items on the trading channel.

After all, as the train conductor's rank increases, the number of carriages also increases.

More and more train conductors are converting empty carriages into independent plantations.

Ultimately, platform exploration is too unpredictable, and no one can say for sure whether there will be a stable income every day.

Rather than relying on the weather for a living, it's better to earn a stable income yourself.

Besides, the treasure chests yielded an unusually large number of seeds, making it a waste to sell them cheaply in the trading channel.

The farming genes ingrained in his bones couldn't be changed even after being transported to the world of trains.

Although she has the golden transformation of the ecological recycling planter, it does not mean that she can get rid of fertilizer.

On the contrary, she needed it more than anyone else.

High-grade fertilizer combined with a recirculating planting chamber is not just a matter of one plus one being greater than two—it's a match made in heaven!

She knew this all too well; otherwise, she wouldn't have argued with another train conductor over a perfect fast-growing compound fertilizer!

Ultimately, they had to acquire it at a higher price.

She never imagined that the compound fertilizer she was fighting so hard for was nothing in Lu Xingyuan's eyes!

He can even produce higher-grade, transformative fertilizers!

"Damn it! Why didn't you tell me sooner? Now I have to fight with someone else for it!"

Gu Wanqing made up her mind that after this matter was settled, she would squeeze Lu Xingyuan dry and make sure he didn't have a drop left!

Holding that one kilogram of high-quality compound fertilizer in her hands, a look of surprise flashed in Gu Wanqing's eyes.

It was a very fine, grayish-purple powder.

The particles are uniform, like stardust that has been ground a hundred times, mixed with visible golden-red luminous particles, like crushed lava flickering in the dark.

When fertilizer was sprinkled at the base of the Purple Jade Spirit Tree, the once silent tree trunk suddenly trembled, and countless roots burst forth like thirsty blood vessels, devouring the grayish-purple powder completely.

The thorny vines that had grown to the thickness of an adult's thigh were shaking their branches wildly in protest, seeing that they hadn't tasted this exquisite delicacy.

However, Gu Wanqing didn't care about any of that right now. She took out the 3000 train coins that Lu Xingyuan had given her and put them all into the coin slot of the ecological cycle planting cabin without any reservation.

The ecological recycling planting cabin suddenly roared, and the entire carriage shook violently.

All the mechanical structures suddenly exerted force, and heat waves gushed out from the gaps, forcing Gu Wanqing to raise her hand to shield her face.

Just as she was about to get closer, a burst of intense, almost tangible golden light suddenly exploded inside the cabin.

The intense light, like liquid gold poured out, completely engulfed the observation window, obscuring all details and leaving only a sea of ​​scorching light.

But the sound grew clearer and clearer: roots grew rapidly, burrowing deep into the substrate with continuous muffled sounds; the bark of the old tree trunk cracked inch by inch, and new buds sprouted from the ends of dead branches at a speed visible to the naked eye. The rustling sound of thousands of tender leaves unfolding at the same time blended into one, making one's scalp tingle.

The process will last much longer than expected.

A full half hour passed before everything calmed down.

The closed hatch light turned from red to green. Gu Wanqing took a deep breath and pressed the open button.

The hatch opened, and billowing white smoke billowed out. It wasn't pungent; instead, it had a refreshing, plant-like scent.

She looked up and immediately saw the Purple Jade Spirit Tree, whose form had clearly changed.

Fine, dark lines, like blood vessels or cracks, are etched onto the tree trunk, winding from the roots to the branches.

Deep within those lines, a dark light pulsed slowly, like something that had been asleep for too long just opening its eyes.

Purple Jade Spirit Tree → Purple Shadow Spirit Tree!

amount……

Gu Wanqing blinked.

Although only one word was changed, it was clear that the changes to the tree were far more than that, because Gu Wanqing saw a fruit growing at the end of the treetop.

That fruit was completely different from the purple jade berry.

It's a size smaller, but its shape is more delicate, as if it had been meticulously sculpted.

The color was an extremely deep purple, almost as if it were dripping ink.

The most striking feature is the runes clinging to the peel—delicate and ancient, flickering in the dim light, like some kind of language awakening.

It grew too tall, so Gu Wanqing had to rely on thorny vines for help.

The thorny vines transformed into a tentacle and reached towards the purple fruit.

But just as they were about to touch, the Purple Shadow Spirit Tree suddenly unleashed an invisible pressure.

Gu Wanqing couldn't feel it, but the thorny vines felt it very deeply.

It immediately shrank back like a frightened rabbit, trembling and refusing to do anything so presumptuous again.

"Holy crap!"

"Does a bullying relationship exist between plants?"

Gu Wanqing stared wide-eyed in surprise.

There was no other way but to do it myself.

She made a ladder, so she could reach it now. The problem is, will the Purple Shadow Spirit Tree hurt her?

She dared not be careless and moved very carefully.

But clearly, her worries were unnecessary.

The Purple Shadow Spirit Tree had no wariness towards her whatsoever; in fact, it was particularly affectionate towards her, even bending its branches down to make it easier for her to pick the fruit.

Gu Wanqing clearly noticed this as well, and tentatively reached out to touch the leaves of the Purple Shadow Spirit Tree. The leaves opened and closed, which was her response.

"I never expected you to be so insightful."

Gu Wanqing laughed.

It seems that Lu Xingyuan really did give him a great gift.

After climbing down the ladder, Gu Wanqing began to examine the fruit in her hands.

She almost threw the fruit in her hand away when she saw it.

【Abyssal Shadow Sacred Fruit】

【category:???】

【grade:???】

[Note: The fruit of the Abyss Shadow Sacred Tree at its peak embodies the most primal, original power of the Abyss. Its shape resembles solidified darkness, and its peel is engraved with ancient runes from the Abyss's first cries; each line is a forgotten law. Only beings with Abyss blood can receive its blessing—to outsiders, it is the sweetest poison, consuming their souls upon contact; to the inhabitants of the Abyss, it is the only ladder to bloodline transformation; one fruit, and mortal body becomes sacred.]

Yes!

Both the category and the level are a series of question marks!

This was the first time she had ever seen anything like it!

This is truly eye-opening!

Gu Wanqing quickly ran to the control panel and contacted Lu Xingyuan.

"Give me the money!"

Yes, the "asking for money" passive has been triggered once again!

"On what grounds?"

"Just because of this! You'll definitely give me the money obediently!"

Without saying a word, Gu Wanqing traded the Abyss Shadow Sacred Fruit over!

Lu Xingyuan's end quickly fell into a deathly silence!

Without a doubt, they'll be so shocked they won't be able to speak!

Thinking of this, Gu Wanqing's lips curled up uncontrollably.

Sure enough, Lu Xingyuan's message arrived shortly afterward.

"Give!"

"We must give it to them!"

"Sister Qing, just tell me how much you want!"

Gu Wanqing was in a great mood, hummed a little tune, and then slowly asked:

"You'll give me as much as I want?"

Lu Xingyuan replied decisively, "I'll give you as much as you want!"
