Cordyceps sinensis mostly grows in high-altitude cold areas and snow-capped mountain grasslands, mainly distributed in Qinghai, Tibet, Sichuan and other places, with a growth cycle of 3 to 5 years.

The growth process of Cordyceps sinensis is relatively long. First, it transforms from an egg into a small insect, then burrows into moist soil. After being attacked by spores, the larvae's internal organs slowly disappear, and finally it turns into a body filled with mycelium.
