After briefly giving orders on how to handle the Dragon Clan, Yu Zi Yu no longer paid them any attention.
At this point, all he needed to do was steer the overall situation. As for the rest, it was not his concern. Nine Tails, Bull Demon, and Sarcosuchus were more than capable of handling everything their own.
With this thought, Yu Zi Yu shifted his consciousness and gazed into the Space Pocket bearing the name ‘Void.’
Within this Space Pocket, one could see a powerful figure either sitting in silence or roaring towards Heaven.
Unfortunately for them, the entire Pocket of Void offered no escape, neither to Heaven above nor to the Hell below. No matter how much they roared, all they got in return was eerie silence.
At this moment, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze shifted again.
This time, his eyes landed on a blurry figure shrouded in holy light not far away.
This was the God of Nature—one of the three Gods of Elysia.
His strength was decent, but what intrigued Yu Zi Yu more was…
Narrowing his eyes, Yu Zi Yu looked at his status screen.
Race: Deity
Tier: Tier-4
Authority: Power of Nature—The ability to harmonize and balance nature, controlling the growth of all things.
Unique Abilities: Harmonization—Easily stabilizes the state of nature, ensuring balance and tranquility.
Growth Acceleration—By consuming Divine Energy, accelerates the growth of all things.
Healing—Uses Divine Energy to heal others, rapidly restoring their health and vitality.
Nature’s Halo—Channels Divine Energy to create a radiant halo, significantly enhancing the healing speed within its radius.
Light of Nature—Summons a beam of green light that can pierce through anything. |
After taking a deep look, Yu Zi Yu could not help but find it amusing, for he realized why the God of Nature could not raise his head in Elysia.
Leaving aside the fact that the God of Orcs, who was also the God of War, could easily and thoroughly suppress him, his abilities were about 50-60% similar to those of the Tree of Life.
However, while the Tree of Life had already stepped into the Demigod Realm, he was still stuck at the intermediate-level of Tier-4. Even in terms of abilities, he was still far behind by a huge margin.
In other words, he was just a low-grade version of the Tree of Life.
As a matter of fact, just like how the Tree of Life gave birth to the Elves, he mimicked her and gave birth to the first Druids on Elysia.
Thus, he became the Father of the Druid Race.
“What a pitiable God…” Yu Zi Yu didn’t hide the pity on his face.
A God like this truly had no potential. Among the Gods, he was nothing more than an Ant.
In fact, while the title of ‘God’ sounds grand, they placed great importance on their so-called ‘Authority.’
This Authority was essentially the Innate Talent of all things. However, compared to ordinary Innate Talents, Authority was on a higher level. This was because Authority, as it grew, also fed back to the world, and thus granted its wielder the ability to control parts of the world.
For example, the God of Dreams’ Authority was dreams, so she could control the dreams of all beings on Elysia.
The God of Orcs’s Authority was war, so war was the core of his strength.
If an ordinary being’s Innate Talent was lacking, it could be compensated for through effort. However, if a God’s Authority was lacking, that was it for them—there was no way to compensate for it.
This was the core reason why the God of Nature held such a low position among the three Gods.
Compared to the God of Orcs and the God of Dreams, he was completely out of the competition. After all, the Tree of Life had long been born into this world.
In some sense, the existence of the Tree of Life had greatly diminished his control over nature on Elysia.
Moreover, the most important thing was that his Authority—Power of Nature—did not have much potential for growth.
As the Gods would say it, Authority was ranked in levels, and the God of Nature’s Authority was low-level.
“Though you’re quite useless, your existence holds great value to me.” As Yu Zi Yu murmured, a certain corner within the Pocket of Void began to slowly tear apart.
In an instant, a massive rift appeared, as a Dragon Head, as large as a mountain, emerged from the other side.
This head belonged to the Azure Dragon, Yu Zi Yu’s primary root.
Now, it had set its sights on a God, and all of this was because the God of Nature’s existence was nothing short of a precious tonic for Yu Zi Yu’s Azure Dragon Form.
If he could successfully seize this God’s Authority, Yu Zi Yu’s Azure Dragon Form could become the God of the Nine Space Pockets, thereby gaining control over the growth of all things within them.
After all, the Nine Space Pockets were just one step away from becoming Small Worlds. Now, that step was about to be taken. The more perfect the Nine Space Pockets became, the higher the chances of them becoming Small Worlds.
What was a God?
To simply put it, they were a higher form of life nurtured by a world, exercising the Authority granted by their world.
The stronger the world, the stronger the Gods birthed by it.
As the Master of the Nine Space Pockets, Yu Zi Yu’s goal was to seize the Authority of the God of Nature, allowing the Azure Dragon to become not just the God of Nature, but more accurately, the God of Life.
At that point, under the guidance of the Azure Dragon, the likelihood of the Nine Space Pockets becoming Small Worlds would greatly increase.
Of course, this was not the most important thing.
What was most important was…
At the thought of this, a glint of amusement flashed in Yu Zi Yu’s eyes as he looked at the small Tree, about the size of a palm, atop the Azure Dragon’s head.
This small tree was the Tree of Life, the pinnacle powerhouse of Elysia. Now, she had become the Spirit Familiar of the Azure Dragon.
In the future, she might even become the Azure Dragon’s Dao-Protecting Artifact.
What was more important about the whole ordeal was that it was this very Tree of Life had informed the Azure Dragon that the Authority of the God of Nature could be of great benefit to it, potentially allowing it to reach new heights.
Cultivation was fundamentally a process of continuous evolution. The Azure Dragon, as a Natural Sacred Being wielding the Power of Life, was not perfect.
The God of Nature, however, could fill in the Azure Dragon’s shortcomings, allowing it to also wield the ‘Power of Nature.’
So, without further words, the Azure Dragon, which had emerged within the Pocket of Void, gazed at the God of Nature with a cold glint in its eyes. Then, in an instant, it raised its claw and fiercely swung it down, without hesitation.
*Boooooom…* The tremendous impact gave the God of Nature no time to react.
*Aaaaaaaa…* A heart-wrenching cry escaped the God of Nature’s lips, as he was reduced into a wisp of green smoke under the Azure Dragon’s claw strike.
All that remained of him was a ball of emerald light, floating quietly in the Pocket of Void.
A mere Tier-4 could not possibly withstand the full power of the Azure Dragon. Nonetheless, Gods were difficult to kill, and all Yu Zi Yu had done was scatter his consciousness.
Years later, when his consciousness reformed, the God of Nature might indeed be reborn, but it was highly likely that he would never see that day.
