I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 251: BOSS Template

Since China had invested so many resources to cultivate Lin Yao, they naturally required him to meet some conditions. He had to become a silver warlord or make the top 50 of the Hidden Dragons List within a year. After reaching this stage, they would then give him the resources for the second stage of development.

These two requirements were actually quite challenging. All the youths in China strove to get into the Hidden Dragons List. The top 30 geniuses had the abilities necessary to fight beyond their rank. Che Zhengyi, who ranked in the first few places, could even kill a gold warlord within seconds.

Although the people in the top 50 were not as formidable, they could still compete with the gold warlords.

The Chinese military had never expected that Lin Yao, who was a warlord, would be able to reach the top 50 within a year. They believed that Lin Yao would only be able to meet the first requirement, which was to become a silver warlord within a year. After all, Lin Yao’s cultivation speed was obvious to all.

However, Lin Yao felt that it would be easier for him to meet the second requirement.

‘Success or failure depends on today.’

While mumbling to himself, Lin Yao communicated with the sacred tree in his mind. Soon, the Bodhi Tree shook and gave out a mysterious aura that connected with the golden cicada in Lin Yao’s hand. The spirit essence of the golden cicada was helpless as it was dragged into Lin Yao’s Sea of Consciousness, clinging to the Bodhi Tree.

The golden cicada that entered the soul was still a little confused. Before it could react, a large amount of mysterious aura was exuded by the Bodhi Tree, merging with the golden cicada.

It was difficult for the soul to survive by itself in nature. It had to rely on others and it was also fearful of the scorching sun, thunderbolts, and gales. Although it could absorb yin aura, the soul would gradually turn indifferent and crazy, as yin aura contained negative emotions.

Among the heaven realm, the earth realm, the human realm, the god realm, and the ghost realm, the ghost realm was the lowliest realm because of this.

However, the golden cicada was now given a new lease of life by the aura of the Bodhi Tree. It suddenly had the desire to live and was immersed in this beauty, constantly absorbing the mysterious aura emitted by the Bodhi Tree.

While it was absorbing the aura and feeling the vitality of life as the large amount of mysterious aura swept over it, its memory was also being washed away. Its existing soul was integrated into the mysterious aura.

Lin Yao had successfully recast the feathered serpent spirit easily back, which made him feel that it would be easy this time as well. He was surprised when something happened halfway through the absorption. The golden cicada suddenly woke up from the fusion of mysterious auras and started to struggle.

‘It’s troublesome. Why is it sober? Perhaps its spirit essence is more complete? I have to guard against its resistance.’

He believed that the golden cicada, which was sober, would not sit and wait for its death. However, what happened next was the exact opposite. After becoming sober, the golden cicada subconsciously resisted briefly before looking at the sacred tree and not moving anymore, allowing the sacred tree to recast it.

‘What the hell is happening?’

This situation had completely exceeded his expectations. However, since what had happened was beneficial to him, he continued recasting the golden cicada. A steady flow of the mysterious aura was drawn from the Bodhi Tree and injected into the golden cicada. Soon, the soul of the golden cicada and the aura blended and fused, and it finally merged with the sacred tree. A few moments later, there was a fruit with internal strength and a golden cicada phantom on the Bodhi Tree.

This was not the end. In a normal world, the Bodhi Tree would cultivate and nurture this seed. It would take decades or even hundreds of years to slowly cultivate it. It would take a very long time, but the sacred tree had time on its side.

However, Lin Yao had no time to wait. His mind jolted, and more and more mysterious auras were extracted from the Bodhi Tree, filling and charging the golden cicada fruit on the Bodhi Tree with aura. The Bodhi Tree in turn wilted due to the loss of aura.

This extraction lasted three minutes. Just as Lin Yao started feeling distressed over the Bodhi Tree and most of the branches and leaves of the tree turned yellow, a crisp cicada’s chirp finally echoed in Lin Yao’s Sea of Consciousness.

‘I finally succeeded.’

Lin Yao sighed and checked the Bodhi Tree right away. As he had expected, the Bodhi Tree seemed to have suffered a serious injury and incurred damages to its origin.

[Bodhi Tree (-30,000/1,000,000)]

[State: Serious Injury (Damaged Origin)]

‘Fortunately, it’s just a loss of 30,000 energy points. I have them. It’s worth it to use energy points in exchange for time.’

The sacred tree had a long lifespan, and they relied on the accumulation of time to nurture their dependents. Lin Yao was too aggressive and had naturally hurt the sacred tree. However, when Lin Yao saw the golden cicada, he felt that it was all worthwhile.

[Golden Cicada]

[Level: Peak Silver (Elite Template)]

[Ability 1 Cicada Chirp—Demonic Sound: The cicada’s chirp is sharp and ear-piercing. When the golden cicada uses all its energy to chirp, thousands of noises will echo in the enemy’s brain. People will be distraught with anxiety and might even turn crazy because of these sounds. At the same time, Cicada Chirp—Demonic Sound is like an infrasonic weapon that can affect real-life matter.]

[Ability 2 Cicada Chirp—Clear Sound: The chirping of cicadas can be upsetting and at the same time pleasant to hear. After the fusion with the host’s Bodhi Tree, Cicada Chirp—Clear Sound can help the host relax his mind and relieve the host’s symptoms of fatigue. At the same time, there is a certain chance that the host will enter a state of natural fit after listening to Cicada Chirp—Clear Sound.]

[Ability 3 Cicada Perception—Sensing Autumn Before It Approaches. The golden cicada has the ability to predict dangers and disasters.]

‘Sure enough, it is peak silver. My Bodhi Tree is still too young. It is too difficult to cultivate a dependent of the gold rank.’

Lin Yao felt that it was normal that the golden cicada had not broken through to the gold level. At the same time, he was also very satisfied with the golden cicada’s abilities. In fact, the golden cicada had exceeded Lin Yao’s expectations.

‘Since it is a good fit for the Bodhi Tree, it is not surprising that the golden cicada has the Cicada Chirp—Clear Sound ability. I entered a contract with it due to its ability to soothe the spirit. With this ability, I will feel more relaxed when I read or practice combat skills, and it could also protect my spirit in battle. After undergoing brain development, my mind and spirit can be quickly restored as well. The demonic sound is also something I expected. Since the golden cicada has grown to such a large size, it must have offensive abilities as well. However, I did not expect it to have Cicada Perception—Sensing Autumn Before It Approaches, which is the ability to foresee danger.’

Lin Yao did not realize that the gold cicada had used this predicting ability to wake up while being recast just now. He was pleasantly surprised by this unexpected ability.

Although it was not aggressive, it further increased Lin Yao’s chances of survival.

However, Lin Yao still had his doubts. He was wondering why the golden cicada would not resist even after sensing the danger.

While listening to the joyful song of the newborn golden cicada in his mind, Lin Yao thought about it and soon had some ideas.

‘When the sacred tree recast the golden cicada, it actually wiped out its soul. However, it was already dead. Hence, this is akin to rebirth.’

Reproduction and survival were the most essential instincts of living things. When the sacred tree recast it, it was considered a form of alternative reproduction. The golden cicada was already dead and had lost its survival instinct, while the remaining reproduction instinct made it unable to resist the recasting process.

‘This instinct is good, but unfortunately, it can only reach this stage when there is no resistance. The higher the level, the higher the intelligence of the creature, and the more afraid of death it will be. If the soul of the golden cicada was not incomplete, it would not easily give up resisting the recast.’

The newborn golden cicada kept chirping in Lin Yao’s Sea of Consciousness. The sound was clear and sweet, with a hint of joy and admiration for Lin Yao. Lin Yao enjoyed listening to the chirping and was also calming the golden cicada, making it lie on the Bodhi Tree to absorb its mysterious aura.

When it stopped chirping, Lin Yao looked at the elite template of the golden cicada that had reached the silver peak.

He was not surprised to see the template. The template in his Sea of Consciousness was based on his consciousness and would also change based on his insight and subconsciousness.

In the past, although Lin Yao knew that geniuses were divided based on their level, he had never thought about ways to classify strengths and weaknesses within the same level. Therefore, his panel only displayed his level. As Lin Yao expanded his knowledge, a difference also appeared in the template.

In Lin Yao’s opinion, the elite template meant that the physical strength was between 300%-500% each time one advanced. There was also the genius template (500%-800%), top genius template (800%-1,000%), and BOSS template, which was also the king seedling template (over 1,000%).

One could easily tell the difference between various templates based on physical strength.

As a peak silver warlord, the golden cicada was not weak, but it was also at the second level. Although more than 90% of the silver warlords were at this level, Lin Yao was a genius and people had high expectations of him. Since he wanted to obtain more resources, his opponents would obviously not be these people.

‘Most of the people on the Hidden Dragons List have top genius templates, and the top ten have BOSS templates. They are like the BOSS that guards various stages in games. The strong geniuses are not like the silver warlords at all. Although the golden cicada is a silver warlord, it will not be able to enter even the top 100, let alone the top 10.’
