Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 372: Chapter 290: Everything is Ready - Commensal Banyan Tree_2

When she first obtained this ability, even she was stunned.

Back then, she was somewhat inflated. As someone who practiced martial arts from a young age, she craved power and had a strong competitive spirit, especially with an ability named [Empress], which almost made her feel like she was destined for greatness!

However, during the jungle hunting events, Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang taught her a lesson, achieving higher scores in her home turf, and repeatedly in events, she was overshadowed by both, gradually making her confront her abilities.

She even underestimated her own abilities a bit.

But now it seems, she’s still quite strong.

”By the way, besides antidotes, I can also craft something else.”

Wen Guixin posted a blueprint in the [Explorer] channel.

[Mental Toxin (Purple): A toxin that can infect enemy units, leading to control upon complete infection. Requires blood of high-level mutated creatures*1kg]

Xu Xin was shocked by this blueprint.

It turns out this toxin can be crafted.

However, the materials needed are really...

Previously, the materials Wang Lei and the others needed were purple grade materials, hard to obtain but not extremely rare.

Like purple-grade beast hides, Xu Xin had cut them from the corpses of low-level mutated creatures before.

But this mental toxin actually requires the blood of high-level mutated creatures!

High-level mutated creatures!

The last time he heard of this term was during a conversation with the Chang Yin Family when Chang Yin told him that his mutated beast contract was drawn using the blood of high-level mutated creatures as ink.

Moreover, Chang Yin clearly stated that he himself wasn’t a match for high-level mutated creatures and could only protect himself or flee under their attack, unable to even look after those around him.

This shows the immense power of high-level mutated creatures.

Thinking about the beast tide arriving tomorrow, Xu Xin felt a pang.

Will high-level mutated creatures appear tomorrow?

Wen Guixin: ”Alright, I’ve shared my abilities, Xu Xin, Ji Chaoyang, it’s your turn. What are your abilities that keep overshadowing mine? I’m truly curious!”

Li Wenxi: ”I feel Sister Gui Xin’s abilities are stronger though...”

Qi Xuefei: ”Different types. Have you noticed, on our side, we have all support abilities, whereas, on their side, they have abilities that enhance themselves, and can create special tools that grant part of their abilities to others.”

Ji Chaoyang: ”That’s exactly right, I was just considering this.”

It appears, everyone else is thinking the same as him.

Xu Xin was about to reveal his abilities when Ji Chaoyang spoke first.

His [Prophet] ability was revealed, immediately astonishing everyone on the other side.

”Brother Chaoyang truly lives up to his name! Being able to foretell future disasters! So powerful!” Zhao Xiaochuan couldn’t help but exclaim.

Wen Guixin: ”No wonder you always know things others don’t, so that’s the information advantage!”

Qin Yunhu: ”Prophet? Such a mystical thing...”

Then Xu Xin also disclosed his abilities.

He still didn’t mention the [Creator Permission] phrase but revealed his current three abilities: [Identify], [Map], [Alchemy].

Wang Lei: ”Three abilities?! Holy moly! Brother Xin might really be the chosen one?”

Qi Xuefei: ”Even though I already knew, hearing it again still feels a bit surreal...”

Wen Guixin: ”Three abilities... But on your side, they’re really all support type, huh.”

Li Wenxi: ”Thanks to Xu Xin’s abilities, us four are practically neighbors now, able to visit freely, hehe!”

Wen Guixin: ”I wish I could come over to your side to play...”

Thus, all nine members of the [Explorer] group had revealed their abilities.

Knowing the abilities of the other five, Xu Xin was relieved.

He was a bit worried they couldn’t truly collaborate without coordinates, and in case of danger, the margin for error would be too low.

Now it seems their individual strengths are pretty significant, not much to worry about.

Moreover, even if there are issues, there’s a super strong [Empress] on their side, no need for him to worry about them.

Everything is ready, just waiting for tomorrow’s disaster to strike.

With all preparations made, there shouldn’t be any problem.

Feeling relieved, Xu Xin snugged into the sofa, looking up at the ceiling.

...Oh right, he needs to go to Ji Chaoyang’s side to see if the banyan tree not connected to his main tree house can be transplanted!

He sent Ji Chaoyang a message, then swung down from the tree house, arriving at the coordinates, activated the portal to Ji Chaoyang’s tree house, and stepped through.

After a whirlwind, he landed firmly on the ground, his eyes immediately falling on the lush banyan tree before him.

This banyan tree is identical to the two banyan trees from the cave, appearing as a two-floor blue-level mini tree house, growing lonely about fifty meters away from Ji Chaoyang’s main tree house.

He walked over and reached out to touch the banyan tree.

[Symbiotic Banyan Tree (Blue): A symbiotic banyan tree that can expand the internal space of a tree house and enhance the root capabilities of the tree house.

The growth ability of a symbiotic banyan tree is exceedingly strong, growing continuously. Once connected to a tree house, it will constantly grow outward, gradually expanding the internal space of the tree house, while also gradually expanding the protective area of the tree house.

Symbiotic banyan trees not connected to the main tree house can no longer grow upon maturity and can be excavated and transplanted.]

Xu Xin’s eyes lit up abruptly.

It can be transplanted and excavated!

Ji Chaoyang received Xu Xin’s message and swung down from his tree house, walked over to Xu Xin’s side, and asked, ”How is it? Can it be transplanted?”

Xu Xin smiled: ”Yes, as long as it’s not connected to the main tree house, it can be transplanted!”

After excavation, you will definitely obtain a banyan tree seed; if successfully transplanted, it’s like getting another seed!

Ji Chaoyang nodded: ”That’s good. Today, I went out to explore and roughly measured the protective range of my current tree house, which is now twelve kilometers.”

Oh?

This banyan tree, even if not connected to the main tree house above ground, can enhance the capabilities of the tree house roots underground?

What if two banyan trees were planted? Would that add an additional 3 kilometers to the range?
