I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early Chapter 573: 419: Top-Level Treasure!

Chapter 573: Chapter 419: Top-Level Treasure!

Lu Yuan looked at the “Black Shell Stinky Mushroom” and then at the “Black Sky Aphid” that was frantically begging for rcy.

What to do, it seems like a good thing?

Whether on Earth or in Sky City, it’s worth a hundred million in gold!

I can’t bear to just eat it directly…

“Take it back and give it to the ladies… wait, what does she need to attract the opposite sex for… I should use it myself!”

The Greedy Demon God took out a small box and carefully stored the little mushroom inside.

...

Then his eyes brimd with red light as he used “Control”.

He felt that the Black Sky Aphid seed smart enough to make a fine minion.

The “Control” exertion on a Level 6 Creature was quite significant, and even though the insect’s Divine Attribute wasn’t high, Lu Yuan still spent over one hundred and fifty Spirit Essence.

He was so pained that his whole body trembled, but he consoled himself that resources were abundant here, and he could soon recoup the cost with profits.

“Lead us to other Mushroom Forests, to the deeper parts where the quality of the mushrooms is higher.”

The “Black Sky Aphid” showed an extrely ingratiating expression, wriggling its huge body and even inviting Lu Yuan to sit on it, then spat out an even larger “Black Shell Stinky Mushroom”.

Lu Yuan: …

What a guy, truly greedy to the core, hiding things away when his life is hanging by a thread!

Only through “Control” can you thoroughly clean out its stash.

The Reconnaissance Scythes were all shocked; what happened, the insect suddenly submitted?

So, led by the Insect traitor, the mighty “Greedy Demon God Cleaning Team” began its cleaning operation!

Countless Mushroom Forests were rcilessly swept clean.

The Greedy Demon God, who wanted and ate everything, had his desire to collect Spirit Essence fully satisfied!

…

Actually, Lu Yuan was still careful, mainly cleaning up the deeper areas below.

Because the resources above were abundant but not really high in quality, mostly enhancing physique and Attribute enhancents, it was better left to Humans… Humans need so resources too, after all.

Whereas the resources below were fewer in number but higher in quality, with more functional mushrooms.

30,000 ters into the ground, the “Rare Level” mushrooms that were hardly visible before began to appear more frequently.

Their functions were incredibly bizarre, so increasing visual acuity, so treating infertility, and even natural adrenalines, etc.

For those functional mushrooms that were good and rare, Lu Yuan did not consu them directly but carefully preserved them in boxes.

For the mushrooms with plenty of substitutes, like those that enhance attributes, he ate them directly, converting them into Spirit Essence.

This box was made from the wood of the Tree of Life, which could effectively slow down the loss of Life Essence, and combined with the abilities of the Storage Space, it could keep them preserved for a very long ti.

“After passing it through the Insect Clan Army once, I can trade it with Humans for sothing good, sweet.”

At 70,000 ters, the long-desired “Superior Level” finally appeared!!

[Charming Red Mushroom, just a tiny 0.1g of its active ingredient is enough to keep you in the battle all night, truly the ultimate treasure that male creatures dream of. (Superior Level·Natural Wonders)]

[Function: Greatly enhances reproductive desires.]

[The Spirit Essence contained within it is around 2.9.]

“This… is indeed a top-tier treasure!”

Lu Yuan rushed over quickly, ignoring the big beetles with bared fangs and threatening gestures nearby.

He carefully reached out his hand towards the mushroom gleaming with red light, plucking it along with the soil it grew in.

Just a sniff, and the breeding desire bubbled up from the depths of his heart—even though his current body didn’t have that function.

“Roar!!” The big beetle was both anxious and furious, watching Lu Yuan take away the treasure it had cultivated for so long; its large hairy legs dug at the ground almost in a frenzy.

Of course, “Superior Level” Charming Red Mushrooms are still very precious; after a long search, there was only one.

Lu Yuan was sowhat dissatisfied, picking and eating, consuming a large half of the other mushrooms as well.

The beetle guarding the “Charming Red Mushroom”, after roaring for a while, realized that Lu Yuan not only ignored it but actually intensified the robbery, and finally shrank back in dismay.

It cursed out loud: “Bikah!”

“Turns out there was a guardian bug…”

Lu Yuan turned his head, feeling he was really carried away; that big black insect hiding in the corner, he didn’t notice at first… or rather, he saw it but subconsciously thought it was a tuft of grass peeking out, completely ignoring it.

The power of Myth is truly terrifying… He felt his courage was swelling infinitely, like he had entered a land with no others, no insect dared to confront him!

Higher the Level of the insects, the more instinctive spiritual awareness they have, and they dare not strike, only capable of impotent fury.

“Level 8… Level 8 Creature? Theoretically, it should have a Field by now, I’ll let you off this ti.”

Mainly because controlling a Level 8 beetle was too expensive, needing more than seven hundred Spirit Essence. Lu Yuan had no idea how it was calculated, related to Level, Divine Attribute, and Race—Insect Race was actually one of the easier races to control.

“Cultivate mushrooms properly; I’m leaving this small portion for you, I won’t eat it.”

Seeing that Lu Yuan left so for it, the beetle even felt a bit grateful…

Because other stronger insects would leave nothing for it after looting, not sparing it a single bit.

The upstart “Black Sky Aphid” roared triumphantly, twisting its fat body, seemingly asking for a reward.

The beetle was furious and initially wanted to bite this fellow to death, but when it saw Lu Yuan actually tossing a small mushroom and rewarding this simpleton, it couldn’t help feeling aggrieved once again.

Then, a gleam of intelligence flickered in its eyes…

It acted recklessly and followed behind Lu Yuan, incessantly scratching its head and poking its ears.

The Level 8 Beetle indicated that it also wanted to be fed mushrooms, and it knew of a nearby Mushroom Forest.

“What’s going on? Why are you following us? Do you know of other Mushroom Forests? Lead us there, and you’ll get to eat.”

The beetle, resembling a tank, continued to wriggle, beaming with joy after eating a mushroom.

It beca an active simpleton like a “Black Sky Aphid”.

Lu Yuan: …

Why do I feel like all the insects here have beco cunning?

This darn place isn’t as dangerous as I imagined! If I’d known, I would’ve co down here earlier!

…

And so, traveling downward, the ancient Insect Race welcod their own king!

It seed like Lu Yuan had found a bug among the Insect Race. First, he controlled a simpleton, constantly rewarding it, and other clever insects were attracted, following Lu Yuan in the hopes of getting food.

After observation, he understood how this bug ca into existence: the Insect Race… actually didn’t dare to eat the mushrooms they cultivated!

Indeed, the mushrooms they cultivated themselves were sothing they dared not consu at all.

Even mushrooms cultivated by mbers of the sa nest clan were only skimd off in small amounts.

This rule seed to be engraved deep within their souls.

If it weren’t for this ironclad rule, the productive forces of the Insect Race would’ve collapsed long ago.

Only high-level mbers of the Insect Clan directed by Mother Worms were allowed to pick mushrooms.

But here lay a bug; once the high-level insects picked them, those that fell to the ground were freed from the iron rule… naturally, they could gorge themselves.

Especially the mushrooms tossed to them by the enemy, Lu Yuan—they could eat those without any sense of guilt!

After all, these were the enemy’s mushrooms! I don’t care where these mushrooms co from; since you threw them to , it’s a waste not to eat them!

“Take to other Mushroom Forests. There are big, big mushrooms!”

Thus, the number of Insect Traitors grew.

This was similar to “burning the grain storage” in human activities. Why would the granary burn the mont high-level officials investigated… Anyway, the Mushroom Forests being plundered could all be blad on Lu Yuan, the powerful enemy. It’s all his fault; we had no choice.

Of course, this was also related to the “Greedy Demon God” being so powerful that these insects didn’t dare to rebel. Otherwise, this outsider rampaging around here would have been eradicated by them a long ti ago.

In just one day, Lu Yuan’s inco exceeded two hundred Spirit Essence!

That’s two hundred! It would take all of humanity half a year to earn that!

At this rate, wouldn’t I have a small fortune of several thousand by the end of the year?

Thinking about it, King Worm·Greed·Lu Yuan couldn’t help but beam with joy, “I’ve earned back the control money, plus a net profit of 50 Spirit Essence.”

But the good tis didn’t last long. The guiding party, the “Black Sky Aphid”, started to cringe again, as the current depth was far beyond its capability.

The other Insect Traitors also showed hesitant expressions; so even started to flee.

Deeper into the Crack, the quantity of insects greatly decreased, but their levels increased significantly.

Level 6 creatures were as common as dogs; field powerhouses road everywhere!

Because the environnt’s temperature was increasing, the number of mushrooms also decreased… This ant that a depth of 100,000 ters was the limit for mushroom growth. Going deeper, the environnt beca even less hospitable.

Moreover, the “Black Sky Aphid” felt a subtle anger emanating from the Insect Nest… under this kind of supre pressure, it refused to lead the way any longer.

Even the Reconnaissance Scythes began to tremble slightly, not daring to face the wrath of the Mother Worm.

Lu Yuan noticed these guys’ emotions and frowned: “It seems like our activities have caused a certain reaction among the swarm… so many simpletons defecting collectively must have been noticed by the Insect Nest.”

“If this continues, Mother Worm is going to send an army to hunt down… I wonder how powerful the oldest insects are in battle?”

Lu Yuan wasn’t afraid of anomalies [Insect], but there was no need to provoke a needless war.

Especially since the humans were still communicating with the Underground Alliance, there was no need for him, out of curiosity, to venture into the deepest layer for the ti being.

“Growing like this for a while is good.”

After thinking for a mont, Lu Yuan curbed his greed and decided to call it a day.

“Tomorrow, we’ll go stir up trouble in another Mother Worm’s territory. Let’s go, simpleton, it’s ti to head back.”

He smacked the “Black Sky Aphid’s” behind forcefully.

Instantly, the giant caterpillar let out a sigh of relief, speeding away like a train, carrying Lu Yuan along with a heap of Reconnaissance Scythes toward the shallower depths of the Crack…
