Chapter 1325 Natural Selection
Lin Mu was very angry when he returned home this time.
At such an important moment for him, it was the best time to grow, but these green grasses were destroying his growth path.
He originally didn't want to deal with these green grasses, and ignored them. The roots just extended deeper and farther.
Unexpectedly, these green grasses would not give him a way to survive.
"Natural selection, I won't provoke you. Since you are my enemy, don't blame me for being rude!"
Lin Mu immediately restrained his anger and began to focus all his thoughts on growing up.
This time, most of the nutrients absorbed by his leaves are transported to the roots, especially the fourth root, which transports the most nutrients!
The fourth root is becoming thicker at a very fast speed.
Lin Mu has learned to be smart and is no longer in a hurry to let the fourth root spread out.
The first, second, and third roots were the thickest. Lin Mu decided not to spread around, but to go deeper underground!
The deeper these three main roots are rooted, the more stable his foundation will be in the future!
When his body grows taller, he will not be easily blown down by wind and rain!
Also, it is because he cannot spread around to absorb nutrients now, he can only go deep down, so as to ensure sufficient supply of nutrients and water.
Its leaves can absorb sunlight, but require more water.
Otherwise the leaves will wither quickly.
The fourth root soon became thicker, almost catching up with the first.
To be on the safe side, Lin Mu did not immediately control the fourth root to take revenge, but continued to deliver nutrients to the fifth root.
When the fourth and fifth roots became very thick, Lin Mu controlled these two roots and went to attack a piece of grass.
Facing Lin Mu's well-prepared attack, this green grass had no power to fight back.
Its roots were severely twisted by Lin Mu's two powerful roots.
Different from Lin Mu, Lin Mu's roots were twisted, only the ends were broken, and not all the roots were broken.
As for the green grass, it only has one main root. The other roots are too slender to be worth mentioning. After this most important root was cut off by Lin Mu, the grass quickly became dying. stand up.
Under the sunlight at noon, it quickly loses its breath of life.
After killing this green grass, Lin Mu became more determined.
Natural selection means that if you want to survive and become stronger, you must compete with other species!
He can no longer be kind!
The green grass around him not only prevents his roots from spreading, but also absorbs the water and nutrients around him. These green grass must not be left behind!
Next, Lin Mu followed the same method and eradicated the green grass around him one by one.
In the evening, Lin Mu killed all the grass within a foot radius around him.
During this day, Lin Mu's body growth slowed down, only growing to a little more than seven inches. However, another leaf grew, and there were already four leaves.
The number of roots has also reached ten!
This is visible progress.
From a seed that sprouted, it became a sapling that can now kill the grass around it.
Lin Mu felt that his progress was very significant!
But this is not enough!
After this fight, he learned some attack skills.
His roots are all controllable.
However, since he was stuck deep in the soil after all, he found that the farther away the roots were from his body, the more difficult it was to control them.
If his roots spread far in the future, it will not be as easy to deal with other grasses as it is now.
However, if his roots become thicker, it will naturally be effortless!
As night fell, everything was quiet, and Lin Mu also fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Lin Mu woke up early and tried hard to start growing.
Without the fetters of the grass, he grew much faster throughout the day, reaching one foot tall!
It already looks like a decent tree.
Before, it was not much different from green grass.
And from now on, he is a real tree!
After growing to one foot tall, Lin Mu soon ushered in his explosive period.
In the next few days, he grew at a crazy speed.
One and a half feet, two feet, two and a half feet, three feet!
Three feet tall, almost as high as a person’s waist!
In less than ten days, he was half as tall as a man!
This growth rate is really far beyond that of other trees!
When the height reached three feet, Lin Mu's field of vision also became wider, and he observed some situations around him.
There weren't many competitors within a seven-foot radius around him.
The only thing that could pose a threat to him was an ivy growing five feet away from him!
This ivy is one year older than him. It grew last year. Its current height is about three feet high, which is not inferior to him.
Moreover, the branches and leaves of this ivy are far more lush than him. The leaves are extremely green and full of vitality. They look like a big ball.
This ivy is Lin Mu's next opponent.
On the ground, although the ivy is a big ball and very fluffy, the main trunk of Lin Mu's body is growing straight upwards. Now it is a well water but not a river, and there is still a certain distance between it and the ivy.
If he waits for his body to grow to be five feet thick, I don't know how many years and months it will take.
So on the ground, he actually has no competition with Qingteng.
But underground, his roots have already spread out about three feet.
Originally, he could have continued to spread, but he had to stop moving forward.
Because he met the roots of the ivy.
The roots of the ivy are denser than the fluffy clump on the ground looks like!
As soon as Lin Mu's roots came into contact with the roots of the ivy, they were knocked back.
Lin Mu had no choice but to stop moving forward.
The three roots in this direction were unable to move forward, so he had no choice but to transport nutrients to the other roots, spreading them from other directions as much as possible to absorb more nutrients.
As for this ivy, Lin Mu didn't want to keep avoiding him like this.
However, if he had a head-to-head confrontation with this ivy now, he really wouldn't be able to defeat it.
After all, he only has three roots in this direction.
Later, after Lin Mu grew new roots, he controlled the new roots to grow in this direction.
After two days, the roots in this direction have six paths!
It's just that the three new roots are still relatively slender and have not yet reached the point where they can fight.
In a competition involving pure roots, Lin Mu was not sure of defeating Ivy.
However, he soon thought of another way!
