Evolution From the Big Tree

By night, Qing Er had already left.

Except, undercurrents were surging within the entire Misty Mountains.

Apparently, the mist that perpetually shrouded Misty Mountains had gone over its boundaries, spreading out toward the distance.

It was gradual, yet it was indeed expanding into the distance.

Meanwhile, deep within North Canyon…

*Rooaar, Rooaar, Rooaar…* Roaring, a giant white tiger slowly stood up.

[Master, you’ve finally made up your mind, huh?] Speaking to itself in his heart, White Tiger turned his gaze toward a colossal tree hidden deep within the fog not far away, his eyes burning with fervor. [The day has finally arrived!]

Sensing White Tiger’s thoughts, Yu Zi Yu could not help but chuckle. “I did not expect that you, Stupid Tiger, would be so eager to establish your own territory.”

*Rooaar…* White Tiger let out a low and resonant roar that seemed like laughter, a strange gleam flashing through White Tiger’s eyes.

In Human culture, White Tiger was a symbol of war and majesty. It was even referred to as the ‘God of War’. 

And these were not just empty words. When it comes to belligerence, White Tiger undoubtedly stood at the forefront among the Mutant Beasts under Yu Zi Yu’s command.

As for Honey Badger, he tended to be more hardheaded. In other words, he was extremely vindictive.

At this moment…

*Tap, tap tap…* Accompanied by footsteps, Golden Ant emerged from the darkness, wearing a cold and indifferent expression on his face.

Walking closely behind him was Thorns, another one of the nine Great Beasts, with a faint smile hanging on her lips.

“Lord Divine Tree, allow me to fight for you,” bowing slowly and performing a respectful salute, Thorns stated in a gentle voice.

“Mhmm.” Nodding his agreement, Yu Zi Yu raised his gaze.

Dozens of Storm Wolves happened to be standing in the distance, their bluish-green eyes flickering with fervor.

Shifting his gaze…

Second only to nine Great Beasts, Golden Monkey, Armored Wild Boar, and Honey Badger all walked out, standing in a corner.

Apart from the Elder Sister–Nine Tails and Old Second–Bull Demon, Old Third–White Tiger, Old Fifth–Golden Ant, and Old Sixth–Thorns had all arrived.

As for Old Fourth–Sarcosuchus, there was no need to mention him. He was already present. It was just that he was too big. He was lying quietly in the distance, looking like a hill.

“This time, I want to establish my own force.” His calm words shook the hearts and minds of each and every Mutant Beast. Having followed the Divine Tree for so long, this was the first time they had seen the Divine Tree Lord radiate such a sharp aura.

In the past, the Divine Tree either kept a low profile or revealed its strength sparingly.

Seeing him like this was a first for them.

[But I like it.] Murmuring in his heart, White Tiger let out a roar.

Staring at the fire burning in the eyes of every Mutant Beasts before him, Yu Zi Yu was taken aback for a moment. For some reason, he felt like these fellows had been waiting for this for a long time. Each and every one of them seemed to be suppressing their excitement.

Yu Zi Yu smiled in his heart, but did not say anything. Instead, his roots deep within the ground suddenly rose up.

*Boom, boom, boom…* Followed by tremors in the ground, colorful specks of light resembling fireflies rose from the ground in the empty field of North Canyon, much to the Mutant Beasts astonishment.

“This is an advance reward for all of you.” Saying so, Yu Zi Yu’s branches suddenly swung.

*Boom!*

Along with a gust of wind, countless specks of colorful light were swept into the bodies of the Mutant Beasts.

Before anyone could react…

*Roar, Roar, Roar…*

Amidst the continuous rising and falling howls of wolves, the Storm Wolves squatting in the distance started advancing in unison.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, their claws became bigger and sharper.

The bluish green light surging within their eyes grew more intense.

Vaguely, whirlwinds could be seen rising around them.

This was the colorful Spiritual Energy of the second wave of the Spiritual Energy Tide.

Even though Yu Zi Yu had diluted it, the effect was still quite remarkable for the relatively weak Mutant Beasts like the Storm Wolves.

As for Golden Monkey, Honey Badger, White Tiger and the other Mutant Beasts, everyone’s body jolted in unison.

It was as if something strange had happened to them.

However, something was still missing in the end, preventing them from advancing.

In contrast, the nearby Thorns transformed at a rapid speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, the dancing blood-red vines transformed into blood Pythons. They even appeared as if they were hissing.

“Great.” Yu Zi Yu pursed his lips into a smile, satisfied with the Innate Talent of these creatures.

Fortunately, none of the Mutant Beasts had exploded.

Though the colorful Spiritual Energy was a fortunate encounter, it was quite a deadly poison to these Tier-0 Mutant Beasts. If Yu Zi Yu had not diluted it, the potent Spiritual Energy would have tormented these Tier-0 Mutant Beasts.

It would ultimately boil down to either evolution or explosion. It would take just mere moments. Of course, most of them would blow up.

This was the imminent second wave of the Spiritual Energy Tide.

Yu Zi Yu called it the Great Era of Frenzied Evolution.

It was to either evolve or die.

As for now, Yu Zi Yu had extracted a bit of it from deep within the earth to help these Mutant Beasts to adapt to the colorful Spiritual Energy in advance.

As for more…

Unfortunately, it was not that he could not do it, he just did not dare to.

The current liquified colorful Spiritual Energy was far too potent. A bit more would turn it into ‘fatal poison’.

He did not want to watch these Mutant Beasts explode and die before him. As such, in order to let these Mutant Beasts enjoy the second wave of Spiritual Energy Tide without harming them, Yu Zi Yu could only cautiously experiment, little by little, to find the limits of these Mutant Beasts.

Thinking this, Yu Zi Yu glanced deeply at the numerous Mutant Beasts and stated, “There are two things you should keep in mind regarding this conquest. Firstly, if any Mutant Beast refuses to submit, you can kill them straight away. Secondly, for those who can subdue over a hundred Mutant Beasts, you’ll receive the baptism of the colorful energy as a reward. The one who manages to subdue the most will receive a huge opportunity from me.”

The moment he mentioned this, the group of Mutant Beasts were invigorated. Even the usually indifferent Golden Ant had a fervent gleam in his eyes.

“Baptism, huh?” Recalling the moment when the colorful Spiritual Energy surged into his body, raising his Innate Talent in a marvelous way, Golden Ant could not help but get excited.

He believed that if he could experience a few more of such baptisms, his breakthrough would not be that far off.

As for the huge opportunity, Golden Ant did not think too much about it. A baptism was already enough to satisfy him.

At this moment, sensing Golden Ant’s excitement, Yu Zi Yu smiled and stated, “Go, subduing over a hundred Mutant Beasts won’t be difficult for you.”

“Mhmm.” Golden Ant nodded slightly, but did not bother to give a befitting reply, and kicked the ground instead.

With a deafening boom, the ground quaked as his figure instantly left a streak of golden light, shooting straight toward the depths of the night.

The next moment, without Yu Zi Yu needing to remind them, one after another, Mutant Beast rushed into the darkness.

For a while, the entire Misty Mountains trembled incessantly due to their sudden and excited rush.

And not long after that…

*Boom, boom, boom…” Followed by heavy footsteps, a massive figure arrived at the entrance of the canyon.

“Divine…Tree…”

Calling out softly, Sarcosuchus’s gaze focused on the open space of North Canyon, where a mass of liquified colorful Spiritual Energy was rising.

“With your current physique, you can bear this opportunity. Take it.”

As Yu Zi Yu’s words fell, the liquified colorful Spiritual Energy shot toward Sarcosuchus.

Sarcosuchus did not say thanks or anything. One could even say that mere words were not enough to express his gratitude.

Sarcosuchus opened his mouth wide as the colorful Spiritual Energy poured into his jaws the next moment.

In an instant, a deafening bang shook the world.

Looking up, Sarcosuchus’s body was expanding at a visible speed.

What pleased Yu Zi Yu even more was that Sarcosuchus’ Spiritual Energy was continually rising. In the blink of an eye, it had reached around 80,000-90,000, reaching the peak of Tier-1.
