Evolution From the Big Tree

| Evolution Begins With A Big Tree | Next Chapter (Patreon)>>

Yu Zi Yu was slightly taken aback by what the Spirit Herb offered him. He focused his gaze as the information about the strange herb held in White Fox’s mouth presented before him.

Lucky Spirit Grass – It has nine leaves, each leaf has nine rings, eighty-one rings in total. If all eighty-one rings are gathered in one person, they would be blessed with fortune, granting them with unimaginable Divine Ability. (Note: If even one ring is missing, the fortune will not manifest.)

After going through its details, a rare expression of regret appeared on Yu Zi Yu’s face.

Indeed, this Spirit Herb could rival the Five-Colored Spirit Flower – Aurora. Gathering its eighty-one rings would grant one a blessing, endowing its target with incredible Divine Ability. Such a terrifying ability was worthy of the grade of Spirit Herb.

However, what Yu Zi Yu found regrettable was that this Lucky Spirit Grass was missing four rings…

With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu looked thoughtfully at White Fox.

[If I’m not mistaken, White Fox must have inadvertently nibbled on part of the herb.]

In this Era of Transcendence, not only Mutant Beasts but even Spirit Herbs and Flowers were mysterious. No one knows the extent of their powers, let alone how to use them. Everything had to be constantly explored in the darkness.

This Lucky Spirit Grass happened to be just like the legendary Fruit of Life.

According to legend, the Fruit of Life falls when it encounters gold, withers when it encounters wood, melts when it encounters water, scorches when it encounters fire, and enters when it encounters earth. 

To harvest it, it must be touched with an object made of metal.

Although this Lucky Spirit Grass didn’t have so many taboos, it still had one.

If it couldn’t be fully consumed unless whole. Otherwise, its efficacy would greatly diminish, or even turn into an ordinary Spirit Herb. Not a single one of the eight-one rings could be missing.

With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu gast a deep glance at White Fox once again.

The next moment, in the enlightened gaze of Yu Zi Yu, he found four streams of energy swirling within the depths of White Fox’s body.

*Haaa…* Yu Zi Yu heaved a sigh, but he didn’t blame her. Ignorance was not a crime.

Had White Fox known about the consequence of consuming part of this herb, she would not have done so.

Unfortunately, except for Yu Zi Yu, everyone else could only fumble about in the dark when it came to the power and usage of Spirit Herbs and Flowers.

As for White Fox, the Lucky Spirit Grass was a treasure of the Fox Clan of Green Hill. It was well within reason for her to have an urge to have a taste out of curiosity every now and then. If she knew the consequences were so severe, she wouldn’t have dared to nibble on it, no matter how much courage she had. After all, tasting the treasure was one thing, but deceiving Yu Zi Yu was another matter.

If Yu Zi Yu got angry, not to mention White Fox, the entire Green Hill’s Fox Clan wouldn’t be able to bear it.

[This is not my opportunity to take.] In a somewhat helpless tone, Yu Zi Yu waved his hand, sending the Spirit Herb whirling back to White Fox, much to her astonishment.

“Divine Tree, why?” Voicing her bewilderment, a perplexed look took over White Fox’s face. One might even say, fearful.

However, at this moment, a gentle voice suddenly rang in her mind, “Eat it.”

At the drop of these words, White Fox felt her mouth opening wide. Out of her control, a warm stream flowing into her body, as if the Spirit Herb melted in her mouth.

At this moment, in Yu Zi Yu’s perspective, he could see countless mysterious streams of energy intertwining within the depths of White Fox’s body.

Faintly, the entire process carried an indescribable sense of mystery, seemingly evolving.

“An Apex Order Divine Ability!” Yu Zi Yu’s curiosity was immediately piqued. [What kind of Divine Ability could it be to be designated as strongest!?]

However, at present, this Divine Ability was still evolving in some corner of White Fox’s body.

According to Yu Zi Yu’s speculation, this Apex Order Divine Ability would only come into the world when White Fox had advanced to Tier-3. That would be the best chance for Yu Zi Yu to glimpse into it.

[For now, it is better to wait quietly.] With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu calmly stated, “This Spirit Herb is not fated to be with me. Since you have the fate, make best use of it.”

Yu Zi Yu’s declaration took White Fox by surprise. However, after a moment, as if sensing something, she suddenly cast a grateful glance at Yu Zi Yu. Although Yu Zi Yu didn’t say anything or explained it to her, she vaguely felt that the Divine Tree had bestowed her a tremendous opportunity.

“Thank you, Divine Tree,” expressing her deep gratitude once again, White Fox slowly took her leave.

However, at this moment, what White Fox didn’t notice was the rare anticipation in Yu Zi Yu’s gaze as he watched her departing figure.

Divine Abilities were rare to come by, much less an Apex Order Divine Ability. According to Yu Zi Yu’s speculation, it should be no less inferior to Aurora’s Innate Talent—Instant.

And surprisingly, such a terrifying Divine Ability was slowly evolving right under his nose.

It was quite apparent how big of an opportunity this was for Yu Zi Yu. If he managed to comprehend even a fraction of it, it would significantly boost Yu Zi Yu’s chances of breaking through to higher Tiers.

With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu attached a wisp of his consciousness to a root buried deep underground, which slowly started wriggling, as if imbued with life. Then, in just a few breaths, it followed the departing figure of White Fox.

Given Yu Zi Yu’s current strength, just a wisp of his consciousness following White Fox put every single movement of her under Yu Zi Yu’s complete grasp. If necessary, his consciousness could directly manifest at his will.

…

Time passed slowly.

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

During these days, the long-absent trio, Little Fifth—Golden Ant, Old Sixth—Thorns, and Old Seventh—Titan returned.

“Greetings, Master.” In unison, the shiny and scaly Golden Ant, the graceful Thorns, and the towering Titan all looked fervently towards the Towering Tree not far away.

“You’re back.” With a smile, Yu Zi Yu woke up from his cultivation, coming back to his senses.

However, at this moment, as if noticing something, Yu Zi Yu looked at the trio with a hint of surprise.

Compared to the last time he saw them, their aura had evidently become a lot stronger.

Golden Ant was only one step away from reaching Tier-3. As for Thorns and Titans, they too were not far behind.

Thorns had already reached Third Order Tier-2, while Titan, relying on his terrifying physique, should have the formidable combat power of a Fourth Order Tier-2.

In other words, the strength of these three had significantly improved.

“As expected, combat is the best choice for you guys,” deeply marveling, Yu Zi Yu also gained some insight.
