The commotion caused by Yu Zi Yu’s breakthrough continued to spread to the far corners of the world.
Now, it has reached far into the oceans and even to the depths of the Arctic Region.
*Boom!* Today, the millenials-old icebergs finally started trembling. In the respectful gaze of countless Mutant Beasts, a phantom figure slowly emerged from the iceberg.
She seemed to be the embodiment of ice and snow, kicking up a blizzard with her appearance. However, upon a closer look, one could make out an outline of a woman slowly manifesting amidst the snow storm.
Ice Sprite – one of the Heavenly Kings of the central Arctic Region, and also one of the most powerful Mutant Creatures in the Arctic.
Now, this powerful creature that had been lurking in this land slowly opened her eyes and gazed towards the distant south.
“A Tier-4 Transcendent.” She heaved a sigh, with an indescribable bitter feeling rising in her heart.
Tier-4, a realm as unreachable as the distant horizon, difficult to reach, and even more difficult to surpass.
Although a Tier-4 Transcendent had yet to appear in this world, sensing the dreadful oppression bearing down on them from the distance, many Mutant Beasts and countless Humans collectively fell silent.
…
Meanwhile, deep within the ocean’s abyss, a tumultuous upheaval unfurled, sending shockwaves through the tranquil depths.
*Whoooaooaooaoo…* In the depths below, a resounding whistle echoed through the vast expanse as a colossal creature, reminiscent of a towering landmass, stirred from its deep slumber, gradually peeling open its immense eyes.
“No, this can’t be!” A voice filled with incredulity sounded. For the first time, the most mysterious Sage of the deep sea completely lost all composure.
*Boom!* The next moment, a burst of terrifying Spiritual Energy erupted, rising by the moment, causing the entire deep sea boil.
At the same time, the Sage’s colossal body slowly rose.
With a slight swish of its tail, it stirred up monstrous waves, propelling its massive body towards the continent.
Its colossal figure transformed into the most dreadful shadow in the deep blue ocean.
The Blue Whale was still finding it hard to accept.
[On the continent, there is actually such a powerful entity!? And it’s actually attempting to advance to Tier-4!? Are you kidding me!? If it’s true, then all my plans would be in vain. Others might not know, but how could I not? The Tier-4 is a huge divide that separates ordinary beings from the rest! In the previous era, when it was at the peak of its glory, it was considered as the pinnacle of strength. Today, this realm could be considered as invincible.]
…
While the Sea Clan’s Sage was losing its composure, in the depths of China, Yu Zi Yu felt a mysterious force surging in his mind. It was indescribably abstruse and profound, but was deeply fascinating.
He wished he could completely become one with it.
At this moment, anyone observing Yu Zi Yu’s Tree Body would undoubtedly witness its immense stature, already towering and growing once again, amidst the backdrop of loud and continuous rumbles.
His trunk became thicker and thicker, resembling a towering pillar holding up the sky.
His canopy became more lush and denser, with countless Willow Branches stretching towards the sky.
Almost in an instant, Yu Zi Yu’s colossal figure covered more than half of the city.
A single tree, yet it overshadowed more than half of the city.
It was an extremely frightful thing, but unfortunately, most Humans and Mutant Beasts were oblivious to this. All they knew was that even if this city was just a remote town, it gave them an indescribable sense of palpitation.
However, that was not the scariest part.
What was truly terrifying was that a massive amount of Spiritual Energy had already gathered high up in the sky.
With a deafening boom, the Spiritual Energy swelled backward, resembling a towering tornado.
However, at this moment, very few people paid attention to it.
*Rooaar…* With a roar resembling a Dragon’s, the primary root buried deep within the ground, shaped like a Dragon, actually surged deeper into the ground.
*Boom, boom, boom…* The hard rocks in its path crumbled like paper as its terrifying suction devoured all the surrounding absorbable energy.
Amidst its roars, the entire primary root kept transforming.
“System, consume Evolution Points to break through to Tier-4,” softly muttering, Yu Zi Yu gave the command.
<Ding, please confirm if you would like to consume 10 million Evolution Points to upgrade various abilities to Tier-4, and attempt to break through to Tier-4?>
“Affirmative,” Yu Zi Yu affirmed with a nod.
After tempering himself for a long time, he already possessed some aspects of Tier-4.
In other words, the advancement of Tier-4 now was just a matter of course. The only thing he needed to pay great attention to was the Spiritual Energy.
However, feeling the Spiritual Energy swirling and gathering overhead like a tornado, Yu Zi Yu was satisfied.
So much Spiritual Energy was already sufficient. Furthermore, this was not all.
As if remembering something, Yu Zi Yu’s consciousness sank into a mysterious corner of his roots.
The next moment, several Spiritual Energy Pools, the size of football fields, entered his sight.
Spiritual Energy Pools, radiating prismatic radiance, as if they were the Spirit Essence straight from the Heavens.
These pools were initially the prismatic Spiritual Energy Yu Zi Yu had intercepted during the Spiritual Energy Tide. However, the prismatic Spiritual Energy had long since liquified.
Now, it would be more apt to call it Prismatic Spirit Essence.
These vast amounts of Prismatic Spiritual Essence had been locked deep within Yu Zi Yu’s body by several roots, like being swallowed into the stomach.
However, they had been preserved intact until now, without much loss.
Now, this vast amount of prismatic Spiritual Essence would fuel Yu Zi Yu’s breakthrough.
With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu let out a long, deep breath. *Haaa…*
The next moment, a terrifying suction force emanated from Yu Zi Yu’s roots.
*Boom, boom, boom…* With a terrifying suction emanating from the roots, the Prismatic Spirit Essence surged towards the roots, dyeing the roots with a colorful hue.
However, at this moment, as if sensing something, Yu Zi Yu suddenly narrowed his eyes as a strange, incomprehensible feeling flooded his mind.
This feeling was very peculiar, indescribably abstruse and profound.
It was like a deeper level of evolution, causing even Yu Zi Yu’s body to tremble.
And in the midst of this inexplicable tremor, a terrifying Innate Talent of Yu Zi Yu completed its transformation.
Superb Regeneration (Level 3) – A terrifying talent unique to the plants. It greatly enhances the speed of regeneration. Even if relatively fragile parts like branches are damaged, they can regenerate in an instant with the help of the surging energy in the body. (Upgraded Regeneration Ability – Even if the majority of main body or roots are destroyed, you can slowly regenerate through the remaining fragments.) |
This was a terrifying talent, and now, it metamorphosed once again, fuelled by this deeper evolution.
Innate Talent: Everlasting Life (Level 4) – Spiritual Energy never dries up, vitality never ceases. |
Just eight simple words, yet they carry an indescribable sense of mystery and unpredictability.
