I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

The beams of light streaked across the sky, disappearing into various parts of the city.

Zhang Hui said urgently, "Mr. Li, we must quickly find these plants! Otherwise, this milestone will be in vain! Who knows, maybe some important plant got eaten by a dog!"

Only then did Li Chunhong come to his senses and couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Don’t worry, I’m contacting the Civilian Corps right now."

"We... indeed got a step ahead."

"However, why is Yunhai City ranked only 789th? It’s only the second day of entering the Safe Zone. We’ve only staged this scene after obtaining the information, and we’re still some distance from truly reopening the school."

"Are those 788 civilizations that fast?"

He couldn’t comprehend this rank.

Yunhai City was indeed very fast, having restored order and education by the second day—even if the conditions were far from ripe and no students had been physically sent to the schools, remote education was still education.

After thinking it over, Zhang Hui explained, "After all, it’s an extraterrestrial civilization, no one can guarantee what it’s like."

"Maybe some civilizations have already left the Safe Zone."

"Or perhaps, some civilizations, with a far higher level of technology than ours, didn’t experience any chaos at all."

"It’s also possible that they had received more information in advance?"

"Or maybe, it’s a civilization with an extremely low population... With such a vast world, anything is possible, and a rank of 789 is quite good."

"Sigh, that’s true, we shouldn’t be too proud or underestimate ourselves."

Li Chunhong nodded, "Let’s go and see what exactly are these so-called Extraordinary Plants!"

Witnessed by many, 13 white orbs fell from the sky, further supported by an intensive search by the Civilian Corps.

These Extraordinary Plants were soon found and carefully protected.

Joking aside, they were indeed the treasures of Yunhai City, not to be lost!

The so-called "God" seemed to have chosen randomly—13 plants, mostly consisting of common weeds like foxtail, morning glory, Bermuda grass, alongside woody plants such as parasol trees and pine trees.

Even if these plants had undergone mutations, at the moment, their uses were unknown, one could only say… the future looks promising.

Only two plants drew the highest level of attention.

The first was a rice plant, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Each grain of rice, like small green beans, was extremely plump!

"Does this rice have reproductive abilities?"

"Quick, identify it!"

The Identification ability user, a young girl, with wide eyes, her whole face turning red from strain.

After a long while, a voice emerged near her ear, as if someone was gently whispering the true answer into her ear.

"It... it has reproductive ability! The yield and growth rate of this rice are much higher than normal rice, and it contains a small amount of protein, very nutritious." The girl sat dizzy on a stool, nearly fainting.

"Identification"!

An exceedingly rare, yet useful ability.

Only three people in the entire Yunhai City had awakened this ability.

Each use of Identification consumed a massive amount of spiritual power, so one person could only use it once a day.

But this Identification was absolutely worth the cost, greatly uplifting everyone.

Once this kind of rice is widely cultivated, it will very likely solve Yunhai City’s food crisis!

"You’ve worked hard, get some good rest." Professor Zhang Hui, along with his team, moved on to the next site.

The second interesting plant was a large peach tree!

Its verdant young peaches were bursting with a tempting, fresh fragrance.

What was more miraculous was that the peach tree exhibited traits similar to animal aggressiveness.

The branches strangled a cat passing by the roadside, who had wished to eat the peaches, to death!

This poor cat, drained of its blood by the giant peach tree, hung as a mummified corpse on the tree, looking extremely horrifying.

This must be what they call a "Medium Tier Mutated Plant."

Although the peach tree is dangerous, its fruits seem to be highly nutritious, the specific properties of which are still under investigation.

Thus, they kept busy until dawn, with all the researchers red-eyed, and the soldiers searching for plants equally exhausted.

Another identification ability user sat on a chair, his face pale as death.

He was a city white-collar worker who had attempted to identify the giant peach tree but failed due to insufficient spiritual power.

"It’s possible the tree’s level is higher than yours, which is why your identification failed. Don’t worry, just rest well."

"Commander, we’ve found all 13 plants! Please give your orders!"

"We’ll figure out a way to transplant these plants into the greenhouse as soon as possible, but please keep an eye on them for the next few days. Particularly this giant peach tree, don’t let the children get close."

"That’s simple, we will assign people to shift work. Anyway, everyone is free, watching one tree is an easy job."

Their exhaustion was accompanied by joy, as cheerful laughter and light conversations echoed by the roadside.

"Could this peach turn into a Flat Peach Tree? The kind whose peaches prolong life when eaten?"

"It’s not impossible. But I think its most important use will be in medicine production."

This was optimism about their destiny and confidence in future developments!

...

...

...

Snowflakes the size of goose feathers began to fall from the sky, covering the distant mountains and nearby trees in white, as if the entire world was draped in a clean white velvet blanket.

Stepping on the snow, each step left a deep impression.

Unbeknownst to anyone, winter had arrived on Pangu Continent.

Lu Yuan exhaled, and in the biting cold winter, his breath quickly formed a mist of white frost.

He stood on a high slope, gazing at the ferocious giant plant in the distance.

[High-level Extraordinary Plant·Giant Man-eating Flower: A thousand-year-old giant extraordinary plant that seems to have been meticulously cultivated by the Meida Civilization, thriving until now.]

[Years of growth have allowed it multiple evolutions.]

[Its fruits are highly beneficial for the evolution of life. Because of the current low environmental temperature, the man-eating flower is in a semi-dormant state, and its predatory strength on external organisms is significantly reducing.]

[However, if you rashly rush over, you will still be eaten.]

[Attribute: ???]

"A semi-dormant state seems like a good opportunity," he thought.

"How can I get closer to grab some fruit to eat?"

Lu Yuan wrapped himself tightly in his leather coat, racking his brain.

He did not know whether Pangu Continent had distinctions like the Southern Hemisphere and Northern Hemisphere, nor how long winter would last, but he was quietly grateful that he had made this set of warm clothes before the cold wave arrived.

Otherwise, he might well have frozen to death.

"This weather is damn cold. Minus twenty degrees, minus thirty degrees?"

"Old Wolf, come here," he said, a strange smile on his face as he reached out to touch Old Wolf’s belly.

Adapting to the environment, Old Wolf’s fur had grown very long and felt very comfortable to touch.
