Chapter 341: Solid Wind Element Particle Magic Plants and Green-Manure Magic Plants
Locke took out a hundred Emerald Iris Lichens and five hundred Magic Vines of mixed varieties from the Astral Ring. He then ordered ten Dwarf-shaped golems to plant these Magic Plants throughout the forest floor, strengthening the forest once again.
"Wood Element Particles are a type of Composite Element Particle. At their core, they require the seven basic elemental particles—Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Light, Dark, and Aether—to be mixed together in a particular proportion and structure before they can become Wood Element Particles."
"That is why plants need large amounts of the seven basic elemental particles to achieve Rapid Growth. Aside from Light Element Particles, plants generally cannot directly absorb the pure elemental particles of the basic elements. Therefore, they must absorb certain Composite Elements in order to grow."
"Light Element Particles can be obtained from sunlight. Water Element Particles can be obtained from water. Dark, Earth, and Fire Elements can all be obtained from the earth. Even Fire Element Particles exist within heavy-metal elements. Dark Elements exist in the earth in the form of certain Composite Element Particles, and Advanced Nutrient Soil contains this basic elemental particle."
"The only things that forests and plants cannot easily obtain are Wind Element Particles and Aether Elemental Particles."
Various pieces of knowledge about Ecology flashed through Locke's mind.
That was why forests needed symbiotic plants—and not just a few, but vast numbers of them, forming huge populations. Plants had to obtain the seven basic elemental particles from materials composed of different Composite Element Particles before they could acquire Wood Element Particles.
Wind Element Particles generally existed only in the air, making them difficult for arboreal Magic Plants to obtain on their own.
Therefore, they needed symbiotic plants that could solidify
