Dragon God, immortal

. . . . . .

The tree mountain is now covered with flowers.

Oh no, it should be said that the whole dragon turned into a ball of flowers.

These flowers do look bright and beautiful, but... but, they look like garden pots, and have no dignity at all...

"Well, it's really weird for my current body to carry all these flowers. When I'm a full-grown adult, these flowers will be relatively smaller. Then they will look... pretty good." Shushan imagined the future a little.

If his body size is hundreds of meters, then these flowers from a distance are just some scattered flowers. For his current age, these flowers are a bit childish... For an adult dragon, well, just right!

Because of the flowers, Shushan cannot go into the water to catch fish recently, so Wuyun can only continue to eat jerky.

Leave the nest.

Shushan came to the reclaimed woodland.

The saplings are growing very well, with a survival rate of nearly 100% and a growth rate that seems to have almost doubled.

This is thanks to Shushan's other power [Command Plants]! Although there are still many things he doesn't understand, he has already mastered this ability!

By using the power to control the earth, Shushan developed [Rock Crushing Magic], [Mud and Sand Gathering Magic], [All Things Attracting Magic], and [Humus Black Soil Magic].

This means that as long as you continue to practice and develop your abilities, you will be able to master more convenient and practical magic.

Shushan meditated for a moment, calmed himself down, and walked to a sapling.

He murmured to the sapling...

Grow taller quickly...

Grow up quickly...

Then, after receiving the command, the sapling began to grow rapidly, growing taller at a speed visible to the naked eye - 1 cm!

This is Shushan's power of "Commanding Plants". As long as he gives orders to the plants, they will respond accordingly, such as making the saplings grow bent or straight, waking the seeds from their slumber or vice versa, making the weeds that are about to bloom bloom immediately... and so on.

However, plants cannot follow orders that are too difficult. For example, asking weeds that have just bloomed to bear fruit is very difficult for them. It is like asking a pure girl to give birth to a child immediately... They really can't do it!

"Using this ability, I should be able to cultivate specialized seeds, right? I remember there are some wild grasses with great potential on the grasslands in the north. If we cultivate them, maybe we can get crops like wheat or corn..." Shushan thought as he looked at the shaking saplings.

Modern food in the past was obtained by ancient people through breeding and domestication of wild grasses.

The ancestor of millet is very similar to dogtail grass.

Corn's ancestor, teosinte, had extremely low yields.

The ancestors of the malignant weeds such as water millet and dry millet are the same as rice and wheat! This is in line with the Kamen Rider's theory of the same origin of enemies and friends!

As a vegetarian dragon, Longshen Shushan would not be satisfied with just gnawing on tree bark. If possible, he wanted to grow a staple food that tasted better... After all, the taste of tree bark was really average...

Even in the northern grasslands, the wheat straw eaten by the sheep tastes better than the tenderest tree trunks... Even herbivorous dragons are picky about food...

Shushan’s idea was good, but he knew that he needed more practice to accomplish this kind of work.

In short, first understand your own abilities.

Make plans after you have mastered it.

Leaving the woodland, Shushan headed north towards the grassland.

The area of ​​this island is very large. According to Longshenshushan's estimation, the area is at least 90,000 square meters, which is much larger than the island of Ireland in Great Britain, and also larger than the island of Hokkaido where life is quite good...

"It's a pity that there is deep sea all around. There is only an underwater mountain range under this island. You can't find this place unless you have upgraded the navigation technology tree to a certain level." Shushan lamented the navigation technology of modern people.

This is the middle of the ocean, so it's completely isolated from the rest of the world. Humans today... probably don't have the ability to invade here.

According to Shushan's inherited memory, this world is a world with many races.

There are humans and there are dwarves;

There are Nagas and Harpies;

There are elves and orcs;

Of course there are dragons. Well, Shushan can prove that there are dragons in this world! After all, he himself is a dragon, haha...

"Well, but a dragon competing with sheep for grass seems... a bit embarrassing for the dragon clan." Shushan lowered his head and took a bite of the grass. The wheat straw in this season tasted really good, with a hint of sweetness in its fragrance.

The sheep nearby were not surprised by this. They knew that Shushan, this huge creature, was a herbivore like them, so they did not deliberately avoid him.

Well, Shushan occasionally uses magic to capture sheep and make the mutton into jerky as cat food...

It's just that the sheep don't know...

I even think that Shushan is a good dragon...

"If plants can be cultivated just like animals, then can these flowers behind me also be cultivated... Hmm, it seems that there is information about these things in the inheritance?" Shushan squatted on the grassland and looked back.

After all, these are plants growing on the Dragon God. It would be strange if they were just ordinary weeds. Because these flowers grow on the back instead of the front, Shushan has not yet studied these derivatives of his well.

After staring at the back for a long time, he finally found the corresponding information of the twelve plants in the inherited knowledge, which are:

[Rotberry Bush] Its fruit looks like blood and tastes like rotten meat. It is rich in nutrients and can strengthen your body if eaten.

[Meteorite] Its flowers are like the starry sky, tasteless, and can sharpen the mind and benefit the body and mind.

[Yangchuncao] The grass is emerald green with golden threads, tastes slightly bitter, and its juice can accelerate wound healing;

[Dream Night Flower] Its flowers are pink and fragrant, and the taste is strong. Eating it can remove poison and help you sleep.

[Broken Heart Moss] Its purple flowers are like razor blades, taste spicy, and are highly poisonous and cannot be eaten.

[Blinding Grass] Its flowers are whitish and shimmering, and taste like weeds, but when touched, they emit strong light;

[Storm Vine] The vines are blue and floating, and the taste is indescribable. Eating or touching them will make you dizzy and unbearable.

[Ground Bind Root] The vine is buried deep underground and tastes numbing. The skin changes color when eaten, so be careful when eating.

[Vanishing Grass] Its flowers are ash-like and tasteless. Touching them distorts space, and eating them causes abdominal pain.

[Speedy Thistle] Its flowers are golden yellow and taste sweet, very sweet, and time is distorted when you touch it;

[Icecrown] Its flowers are icy blue and taste like a chill in the throat. They are not edible, but can be touched to cool you down.

[Flame Flower] The flower is fiery red and tastes spicy. It is inedible and will burn if touched.

What is this? Is this the Earth Dragon God version of Compendium of Materia Medica? Is this the spice of the magic world? The taste is recorded in such detail!

However, thanks to the memories of his ancestors... Shushan gave up the idea of ​​just trying it out. From the words, he could tell how hard it was for the former dragon to taste all the herbs...

"So that's how it is. This is the true form of my power. These are all from magic potions." Shushan nodded in understanding.

Wait until the flowers mature.

He will be able to obtain its seeds.

Then you can grow these seasonings by yourself, no, potions, um... flavored potions!

. . . . . .

Well… Shushan was sick today.

It's not really a serious illness.

But out of curiosity, he tasted the taste of the heartbreak moss and the vanishing grass, and then fell down...

"Woo... My stomach feels so uncomfortable. Curiosity kills the cat..." Shushan crawled on the ground, looking very haggard... Don't ask how to tell haggardness from a dragon's face. The key is that he feels uncomfortable.

Wuyun squatted worriedly on the side. He noticed that Shushan was not in a good condition, so he put his nose into Shushan's face and sniffed it. Then he stretched out his tongue, which was as rough as sandpaper, and scratched his face a few times. Then he used his claws to wash his face in disgust.

Ah, curiosity didn't kill the cat.

But it hurts so much!

Chapter 4: The Catcher in the Cornfield

The idea behind Tree Hill is simple.

That is to personally practice the knowledge passed down.

I just wanted to see if the Heartbroken Moss really irritates my throat, and if the Vanishing Grass can really distort space. What’s the result… As expected, true knowledge comes from experiments, and the inheritance is true to me… Well, I didn’t listen to the old man and suffered the consequences. Doing this is really courting death…

After returning to the nest, Shushan remembered the detoxifying effect of the Dream Night Flower, but the flower grew right behind him and he couldn't pick it with his claws!

"Ah, I'm done..." Shushan lay in the nest, falling into a coma.

After he passed out.

Wuyun curiously probed with his claws.

After touching it twice on the left and probing it twice on the right, it finally confirmed that Shushan had lost consciousness and was not playing with it, so it meowed and turned around in panic.

While in a coma, Shushan's body was slowly changing. The potions behind him were supposed to bloom only after they reached a certain age, but he was now maturing prematurely.

Therefore, the body's magic resistance was not yet complete, which led to the blunder of eating one's own products and being poisoned...

Fortunately, after he was poisoned, his body instinctively developed resistance quickly.

Meng Yehua behind him seemed to have received some instructions.

After a slight shake, the pollen is scattered.

Landed on the tip of Shushan's nose.

"...Woo...No, I have to get up quickly, otherwise Wuyun will starve to death..." Shushan opened his eyes dazedly. He was still worried about the toothless cat who couldn't take care of himself. Wuyun couldn't hunt on his own, and couldn't find the cat food that was hidden deep inside. He might starve to death after a long time!

But when Shushan came to, he opened his eyes and saw the dark cloud squatting there.

Next to the dark clouds, there were several seagulls that had been bitten to death, and some small animals like rabbits.

Neatly laid out in front of him.

I don't know how much effort it took.

"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo!" When Wuyun saw Shushan waking up, he quickly circled around him and rubbed his head against his paws.

“Okay, okay, I’m fine, I’m fine… I shouldn’t have been stupid, hahaha… It’s so embarrassing, it’s obviously the flower on my body.” Shushan reflected, stretching out his claws to stroke Wuyun’s back.

He seemed to have been unconscious for a while, and Wuyun had obviously lost a lot of weight. Looking at the small animals piled on the ground, Shushan felt a little distressed.

Well, these little animals are almost rotten!

The dark clouds are left for him instead of being eaten by themselves!

I didn’t expect that this little kitty is so loyal. I decided to give it a raise and increase its cat food by 10% in the future!

Shushan touched the dark cloud and laughed. He checked himself and made sure there were no sequelae before making cat food.

Seeing Shushan's familiar operation to the cat, Wuyun croaked excitedly.

. . . . . .

After some time had passed.

"I can't control the potion on my back at this stage. Hmm, maybe the plants with magic powers have their own resistance?" Shushan turned around with a yoga move and cleaned the flowers and plants behind him.

Since the last poisoning incident.

Shushan has become much more cautious about these potions.

A potion that can work on dragons, so how could it be less effective? Anyway, it should not be underestimated!

"However, domesticating wheat straw is much easier..." Shushan finished his preparations and headed for the fields he had prepared earlier.

As he masters the [Humus Black Soil Magic], he doesn't have to worry about the fertility of the soil.

He found a wild grass similar to teosinte and called it Corn Zero.

Plant the zero corn in the field.

Command the flower of that grass to grow a little bigger.

Well, this little weed couldn't refuse Shushan's orders. The flowers that grew during the flowering period were much larger than before, so the seeds produced were also a lot more.

Shushan collected the seeds of No. 0 corn, and after repeating the above operation twice, he finally got the 'No. 1 corn' that could grow large flowers without any commands!

After corn No. 1 was planted in the field, Shushan ordered it to grow more and denser flowers. This was not a problem for corn No. 1. It increased its number of flowers from three or four per cycle to five or six per cycle.

The above operation was repeated several times.

We got corn No. 2 that had eight flowers in one cycle.

At this stage, the yield of No. 2 corn is already sufficient, and as long as more than ten acres of land are planted, it will be enough to feed the whole mountain of trees!

But for some reason, the taste and texture of No. 2 corn are very bad. The corn kernels are white and shriveled. Only the germ is very developed, while the endosperm is mostly underdeveloped.
