Chapter 2828: Chapter 577: Earth Mother Qi and Mortal Circle!
"Yes, this is the divine tree... Although I haven’t seen it, I suspect it might also be a descendant of the Origin Divine Tree. It could be the remnants of the ’Cherry Blossom Divine Tree’.
"Sakura Ancestor..."
Levi remembered that the Heavenly Will once visited the ’Cherry Blossom Ancestor World’. Could it be that this underground world is formed by the intersection points of fragments from the former Cherry Blossom Ancestor World?
It seems Sakura Ancestor has been dead for countless tens or even hundreds of thousands of years, yet the divine tree body makes its nine-thousand-zhang corpse almost immortal.
Such a magnificent existence turned into a fossil, Levi sighs inexplicably and says, "Let’s search around, you might also find something useful."
"Okay, having been dead for so long, the Divine Tree Power must have already dissipated. But this corpse itself is a ten-level earth element Divine Artifact. Once you incorporate it into your tenth-circle wizard tower, its efficacy will surpass all the Strange Woods you have obtained. It is definitely top-quality among supreme treasures." Mana said.
After speaking, the two began their search in the underground world.
Levi called out the Rainbow Sword Master, "Use your Sword Qi to cut open all the veins within a thousand miles around the giant tree."
Rainbow Sword Master received the order and immediately set to work diligently.
After searching for a long time, Levi did not find anything useful. But Mana suddenly exclaimed:
"Levi, come quickly, there’s something here."
When Levi arrived, Mana was confronting a deer-like creature about a zhang high, covered with cherry blossom-like patterns, entirely pink. And on the deer’s head, two clusters resembling cherry blossom branches act as antlers, emanating vibrant life force as they exhibit an anomaly of blooming momentarily and the illusion of life and death.
Though the deer is not large, it exudes the aura of a level 8 late stage, it also has some sacred temperament, akin to the Mountain God from primitive religions.
"This... this is the Sakura Beast."
Levi recognized it.
One of the four materials needed for Elena’s advancement in the Candle Dragon Bloodline includes the bloodline crystal containing Sakura Beast bloodline. Legend has it this creature loves running to places with the World Tree, and now it seems proven. Moreover, the aura emitted by those cherry blossom branch-like antlers is exactly the same as the dead Cherry Blossom Ancestor Tree.
Levi asked:
"Mana, do you think the Sakura Ancestor might not be dead?"
Mana replied:
"It should be dead, but indeed there is Divine Tree Power in those antlers. I suspect the Sakura Beast might have inadvertently absorbed the Original Root left behind by Sakura Ancestor, transferring this power... Some World Trees use this method for regeneration."
"What do you mean?"
"If this continues, one day the entire body of the Sakura Beast will become woodenized by the Divine Tree Power left by Sakura Ancestor. Then the new Cherry Blossom Divine Tree will burst through its body, using its flesh to reincarnate, accelerating the initial growth of the World Tree; it might start at level 8 or 9, unlike me who must grow slowly."
"Indeed... Mythical legends seem romantic and beautiful; reality is harsh. I thought the Sakura Beast and Cherry Blossom Divine Tree had some harmonious symbiotic relationship. But in the end, it is cruel parasitism and devouring, alas."
"Actually, mythical legends aren’t entirely wrong, this Sakura Beast, likely a legendary creature, is probably a tribe created by the Cherry Blossom Divine Tree relying on its ’Creation’ power... In other words, without the Cherry Blossom Divine Tree, there would be no Sakura Beast."
"I remember you said that you lack the ’Creation’ power now, why don’t we rescue this Sakura Beast and absorb the Divine Tree Power from its antlers?"
"Is that alright?"
"Isn’t it... alright?"
Mana hesitated, after all, her nature was different from Levi. Although these years she has become quite ’evil’ under Levi’s subtle influence.
"Old things should give way to the new, instead of reincarnating with this effort, why not let you grow up? Always scattering power, how can it ever contend with the Giant World?!" Levi declared with righteousness, not forgetting to add: "Moreover, such a cute little deer, would you be heartless to let it die?"
Looking into the pure eyes of the Sakura Beast, Mana suddenly felt it made sense.
"Alright, I’ll try to communicate with it, what if it doesn’t want it."
The Sakura Beast does not speak human language, it is a specialized creature whose birth and reproduction mission might be to one day allow the Cherry Blossom Divine Tree to ’return from the dead’ through its body.
While Mana communicated with the Sakura Beast, Levi absorbed all the giant tree along with the foundation, roots, and mineral veins below into the Eternal Star Abyss. After achieving legendary status, the advancement ingredient for Eternal Star Abyss is complete as well.
What a delight!
Truly the Ninth Layer, possessing divine artifacts of priceless value, equivalent to Legendary Artifacts, the profit from this venture is massive.
Thinking of this, Levi kept petting the hound.
"Not bad, not bad, deserving praise."
He could not conceal the smile at the corner of his mouth.
This made Jin feel a sense of crisis. If it can not find something comparable to this ten-level Divine Item, it will fall out of favor...
"Zee zee zee." (Squeaking sound)
Jin climbed onto Levi’s shoulder, urging them to hurry, it has just warmed-up, there’s still half a year left, enough to defeat the bad dog ahead!
On the other side, after Mana communicated with the Sakura Beast for a long time, Levi waited quietly, as the Sakura Beast has another use, as Elena’s bloodline essence.
Thus, Elena simultaneously possesses two secret medicines of the Blood Tribulation Masters, surely enhancing her cultivation speed, reaching level 8 sooner.
"It’s settled, let’s take the little deer away."
