Time was like a wild donkey, running without stopping! The little crane grass had stayed in the valley for almost six years, and he was now thirteen years old.
However, because he ate well, practiced martial arts, and had abundant natural energy, he now looked like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager.
Since he was ten years old, the little crane grass had begun to cultivate natural energy. Not long after, the natural energy of all the plants in the valley had been exchanged with the little crane grass, so his natural energy was not inferior to that of Hu Xin and the others, and might even be stronger.
Half a year after little crane grass learned how to cultivate the natural energy, he finally felt the plant protection. After another half a year, he was finally able to control the plant protection as he wished. At that time, little crane grass had just turned 11.
Little crane grass had also used this one year to learn all of Hu Yuan's ghostvine nine. Hu Yuan was both happy and sad about little crane grass's progress. Little crane grass's speed of improvement was truly beyond his expectations.
After that, Hu Yuan began to teach little crane grass how to make mutated seeds. The plants used for the mutated seeds did not have to be of a very high grade. Of course, the higher the grade of the plant, the more help it would be to the botanist. However, little crane grass was only at the learning stage, so the mutated seeds it made were not of a high grade. Hu Yuan's main purpose was to let little crane grass know the process of making mutated seeds.
The production of mutated seeds involved the use of natural energy and some potions. The purpose of mutated seeds was to make the seeds mutate. Ordinary seeds could not mutate, although the natural energy inside would slowly disappear after being left for a long time. When the natural energy of the seed was completely gone, the seed would be useless even if it died.
However, it was a very difficult process to use the mutated seed. First, one had to use potions to keep the natural energy of the mutated seed from disappearing too quickly. Finally, one had to concentrate the natural energy in the core of the seed. Then, one had to repeatedly stimulate the seed with the natural energy so that its natural energy would be dozens or even hundreds of times higher than that of ordinary races. At the same time, the natural energy could not disappear on its own, nor could it suddenly burst out. It had to be controlled well. When the seed reached the critical point of absorbing the natural energy, it could stop, and the mutant seed would be ready.
When he used the mutated seed, he only needed to inject natural energy into the seed to stimulate the natural energy in the seed. With the support of the natural energy, the seed would grow rapidly, shortening the process from germination to maturity. Then, it could attack the enemy.
The reason why mutated seeds attacked their enemies was that they had been cultivated by natural energy for a long time, so they had developed a certain intelligence and became like animals. The natural energy that stimulated their growth was like an order. They would listen to the order of the person who gave the order and help the person to deal with his enemies.
The process of making mutated seeds was very troublesome, but for botanists, the process of making mutated seeds was also a good opportunity to train. It would make their control of natural energy more subtle.
However, ordinary botanists would not help to make mutant seeds, especially those botanists without the support of big families. They did not have time to make mutant seeds. At that time, they would exchange energy with plants, cultivate by themselves, and communicate with plants. They had too many things to do, so they could not make mutant seeds themselves. Only people from big families like the HU family would make mutant seeds. This was because they had better conditions than those botanists.
All the men in the HU family must know how to make mutant seeds, and then the HU family would sell these mutant seeds. The HU family's mutant seeds were very famous in the soul world's botanist world. The HU family also relied on these mutant seeds to have such a great reputation in the botanist world.
When little crane grass was learning how to make mutant seeds, it had to suffer quite a bit. He was always unable to control the energy of nature well, and it took a long time for little crane grass to learn how to make mutant seeds.
After learning how to make mutated seeds, Hu Yuan no longer allowed the little crane grass to stay in the valley every day. Every once in a while, he would let Hu ding and the others take the little crane grass out to do some work. Of course, it was not a big deal. It was usually a small task for the family and there was no danger.
The reason why Hu Yuan did this was to let little crane grass understand that the world was dangerous and sinister. That was why Hu Yuan had little crane grass follow Hu ding and the others out on some small missions.
Hu Yuan's actions were indeed useful. After nearly a year of training on these small missions, little crane grass had already understood the degree of danger in this world. The HU clan seemed so glorious on the surface, but in the dark, they had many enemies. These people included some beast spirit families, some soldier spirit families, and even other spirit plant families and spirit craftsmen families.
Although the soul world seemed to be peaceful now, the battles between these big families had never stopped for a moment. The battles between the HU family and these families also happened from time to time.
It was also during this year that little crane grass finally learned how to kill. This was an extremely important step for it.
Now that little crane grass was 13 years old, Hu Yuan had nothing more to teach him. In Hu Yuan's eyes, it was time for little crane grass to go out and explore.
On this day, after little crane grass finished arranging the plants, he returned to the wooden house. Recently, little crane grass did not have any trial missions, so he continued to stay in the valley, attending to the plants with Hu Yuan.
The moment Hu Yuan saw little crane grass return, he waved his hand at her. Little crane grass ran to Hu Yuan's side and said, " "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
Hu Yuan looked at little crane grass, his eyes filled with reluctance. However, he knew very well that if he did not let little crane grass go, it would never grow. So, it was time for little crane grass to go on its own.
Little crane grass was no longer a child who didn't know anything. When he saw Hu Yuan's expression, he knew that something was about to happen. He took a deep breath and looked at Hu Yuan, " "Grandpa, are you going to let me out?"
Hu Yuan looked at little crane grass and waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down. He then sighed and said, " &Quot; Bao 'er, you're already thirteen years old. At your age, you shouldn't go out to train, but you're different from others. When others were your age, they couldn't have your strength, nor could they reach your level of success. So, in the end, I decided to let you go out to train. Every botanist has to go out by himself and go to various parts of the soul world to train. You have to see what's different about the plants, and then find the most suitable weapon for you. This is a step that every botanist has to take, and it's the same for you, so I'm prepared to let you out."
Little crane grass had already guessed this, but when he heard Hu Yuan's words, his heart still ached. He truly respected Hu Yuan, and Hu Yuan doted on him like a grandfather. Now that he was going out to train, he probably wouldn't be back for a few years. It would be a few years, and he wouldn't be able to see Hu Yuan. This made little crane grass a little depressed.
Hu Yuan looked at little crane grass and knew what he was thinking. He patted little crane grass's shoulder and said in a deep voice, " &Quot; Bao 'er, even an Eagle has to fly alone. If he doesn't leave his family, he will never grow a male Eagle. You are an Eagle, and it's time to fly. Go, the whole world is yours. Go and fly. &Quot;
Little crane grass looked at Hu Yuan's expression and nodded his head vigorously. He looked at Hu Yuan and said, " "Don't worry, Grandpa. I won't embarrass you or the HU family. Grandpa, do you have any requests for me to go out for the trial this time? Are there any rules?"
Hu Yuan nodded and said, " this is the coming-of-age ceremony that all the adult men in the HU family have to go through. Everyone will bring 100 silver coins and go out for three years to train. During these three years, the HU family will not give you any help in the mission. You'd better use these three years to find your own weapon. &Quot;
Little crane grass nodded and let out a long sigh, " &Quot; I've been out for so many years, but I haven't had many chances to go home. It's a good time to go home and take a look. Besides, my house is right next to the Jade Mountain, so I can go take a look at it. &Quot;
When Hu Yuan heard what little crane grass said, he nodded his head and said, " "Yes, you should go back and take a look. You've been out for so many years. Go and pack up. We'll set off tomorrow. By the way, the family won't give you a horse this time, nor will they let you take a boat."
Little crane grass nodded and said in a deep voice, " "Grandpa, after I leave, you have to take care of yourself."
Hearing little crane grass's words, Hu Yuan's heart couldn't help but feel warm. He patted little crane grass lightly and smiled. &Quot; &Quot; don't worry, don't worry about me. I'm fine now, but there's something I want to discuss with you. It's about your family. He Cao, you're now a member of the HU family, and you've completed a few missions with eighteen and the others. You should know that the HU family has many enemies. Not many people know of your existence now, but if they do in the future, they'll think of ways to deal with you. If they hold them hostage, what will you do? So, I suggest you bring your family to the HU family. They can do whatever they want here, and it's absolutely safe. What do you think?"
When the uncrane grass heard Hu Yuan's words, he could not help but frown. It was just as Hu Yuan had said. The HU family had many enemies, and he was not famous yet. Once he made a name for himself and others knew that he was a member of the HU family, the enemies of the HU family would definitely deal with him. If they really used his grandparents and parents to threaten him, it would be really troublesome.
But at the same time, little crane grass was also very clear that it would not be an easy task for her grandparents and parents to leave tree root village. Their roots were there, and it was difficult for them to leave their homeland. Little crane grass could not bear to let them leave the place they had lived their entire lives for their own reasons.
