2. Using Creatures to Obtain Cementing Paste
This method is based on taming a few creatures that can harvest Cementing Paste for us. Each one of them has a different strategy for obtaining Cementing Paste.
The first creature is Beelzebufo. This creature has the ability to produce Cementing Paste. What it does is it eats insect creatures such as Titanomyrma, Meganeura, Jug Bug, Glowbug, and Insect Swarm. This allows Beelzebufo to naturally create Cementing Paste.
The second creature is Castoroides. This creature doesn’t require to be tamed in order to collect Cementing Paste. In the wild, you can see the Giant Beaver Dams. These are constructed by the Castoroides. These dams usually contain a large quantity of Cementing Paste. Additionally, these dams can get you Rare Flower, Rare Mushroom, Silica Pearls, and Wood.
The last creature is Achatina. This creature has an ability called Wander. While this is active, the creature will produce Achatina Paste passively. This is a substitute for Cementing Paste. To collect this paste you can either assign the duty to Gacha. Otherwise, you can pick the paste manually.
