It has been another 200 years I am now 400 years old and 50 m high; my tank is now 80 inches thicken; my taproot is 500m deep with my other 16 root being a little over 400m long.

Now you mint think this is a lot, but I have put all my force into my roots not needing to worry about my trunk at all and at this point in time the only limiting factor is the speed at which my cell divide as I have all the nutrients that I could ever want.

After 100 years almost a third of my core had been changed to the denser type and when I did, I felt it, it was Qi I could feel it around me.

At this point I now know what it is, and I could feel it the power coming form it I could feel it coming into me, it was as if I was breathing, and the Qi was air.

I could feel my body change it was as if every cell in my body had been charged with an energy, I could feel my body start to work two times fester then before, on top of that both my cell divide and growth increase in speed.

But there was something interesting and that was the core was not touch I did not know why this happen, but it did other than that I started to cultivate autonomously.

The first part that was done was stage 5 a body transformation where the body is invade by Qi in every part of their body, after that was done it move on to stage 6 the skin or bark for me and as it turn out my roots as well because of this I can now beak the rock without the use of water by coating my roots in Qi.

The lest part to be done in the 100 years was stage 7 the organs and I was right to think it would be my vascular system.

Now at the start of the year 102 I come across a ungrown cave the cave itself was nothing special.

I grow my root form the top of the cave to the bottle of it and keep going at the same time I started to grow roots that when down the cave tuned and beyond in doing so, I find out that this cave system is not that and is enclosed with no exit.

But it does have its own enclosed ecosystem how this is possible is by the fact there is a lake in here form which a few differed plant live form those being a moss, mushrooms and a luminescence plant that is in the lake that looks like a quillworts from which then give the small insect something to eat, which then give both the Bats and spider something to eat which then led to both species to fight over the small amount of food and when there dead the body is eaten as well.

This has form an enclosed ecosystem where if I am right if nothing change then there would either slowly increase in number to the point of being to many making there already small food source to small which then could be wipe out leading to the eventual death of everything from lack of food or stay the same for who known how long before something happen.

But with me here that has chosen because not only can I make a new food source as well given enough time I can expand the cave I plan to do this and let both the bat and spider have a space for them self, but I do worry about the cave collapsing, form the ants and there digging.

Now the cave trunnel that I grow into has two directions one-way lads to a dead end with nothing of note, the other way lads to a lager tavern cavern on the left side is the trunnel lading to the Batcave and on the right side is the trunnel lading to the spider cave.

In the tavern, itself has the lake at the far side opposite of the entrance there are stalactites over the lake with a few stalagmites forming form the bottle of the lake with both moss and mushrooms growing around the lake and the quillworts growing form the lakes bottle to the stalagmites and coiling around them.

I spend some time doing an in-depth study of everything in here.

I start with the mushrooms there were about 40cm on average with one fourth of that being the cap, but I have seen them grow as lager as 50 cm with a 20cm cap, there are an all-white colour.

The mushrooms don’t seem to have any poison in them but it mint be the things eating them have an immunity to them, only used that can been found at this point is as food as there are the main food source of the insect.

The moss is a green colour and surrounds the whole lake form the walls to the floors it grows to about a five maters awry, other than that there are no known used other then as food.

Lest of the plants is the quillworts that is growing in the lake it is a about five maters long with a mater in the lake and the rest coil around the stalagmites.

There are luminescence and act as the only light source in here, at the moment the only use there have is has a light source, as none of the beasts have touch them.

Next are the insect there are black centipedes that is on average 20cm with some being as big as 30cm, there make their home in the notes and crevices of the walls and floors, there act as the primary food source for the bats and spiders.

Next are the two primary species of the cave.

First are the bats there are on average 30cm big being 15cm wide and having a wing spent of about 100cm, there are omnivores and have poor vision but have echolocation.

Other than that, there have some poison resistance at least to the spider venom, there have poison fangs as well as a sound attack, where there screech at their enemy which disoriented them and there can fly.

Their leader is two times bigger than the rest of his ken but like the spider leader spent almost all it time in their home letting his underling do all the work.

The spider are on average 50cm big but are fer fewer in number then the bats, but to make up for that there can see in the dark, are omnivores have poison fang/spit attack, can climb the wall and ceiling, and make tapes form there web.

There queen is 80cm big and is similar to the ant/bee queen and is responsible for giving birth to the next generation, but unlike them the spider queen is must more battle oriented, other than that she only give birth to a few eggs every week.

But I am unclean if this is because there is a natural response to the lack of both space and food, or if she only birth that many natural.

Now that I have an idea of what is happening in here, I can plan out what I want.

First is that I am going to connect to all the plants in here I am doing this so I can expand their number later, next I will connect the stalactites and stalagmites this way I can make the quillworts grow there lever to the roof of this place increasing the light in here.

Next, I will grow fruits in the tavern as a start then I will grow them in a smaller number in the bats/spider home, by doing this most of them will still need to come out and fight making there number stay the same.

I need them to stay the same because until I expand their livening environment, I can’t have too many just popping out of nowhere.

I will be making a path for some of the fish to get in the lake down here as well as I think it will be very interesting to see what happens to them as a species.

Finally, I will be making a barrier with my roots both around the small cave system and the entrance to the cave system so that I can control who and what go in and out of this place.

Nice thing is that the ants follow my roots and are both not able to keep up and don’t want to be in front.
