Evolution From the Big Tree

Nine Tails, taking a deep look at Little Tenth, smiled with approval.

[Not bad, not bad at all! His talent is undeniable. He is only half a step away from reaching Tier-5. But, now’s not the time to focus on Little Tenth.] With that thought, Nine Tails shifted her gaze to the nearby plain.

In an instant, a torrent of countless strong Transcendents entered her eyes, flooding the entire plain.

At the center of this torrent were figures that looked like Gods and Demons.

One was a humanoid figure with fiery red hair, and a flame-shaped mark on his forehead. This was Chi Yan, one of China’s Four Heroes.

Rumor had it that he had awakened the Bloodline of the Fire God of the Human Race, granting him the power to control fire from birth.

Another figure resembled a Giant Tortoise. Its entire body was pitch black, and radiated a deep, dark glow. Its palm-sized scales were dense and reflective, covering its entire body like a mirror.

However, the most striking feature was the strange beast coiled around the giant tortoise’s head, resembling a serpent, flicking its tongue as it wrapped itself around the Tortoise’s head.

At a glance, one could feel an inexplicable ferocity emanating from it.

This was one of the Seven Emperors of the Earth’s Sea Clans, a terrifying Sea Creature who had awakened the bloodline of the Black Tortoise. It excelled at water control, and was capable of turning the seas upside down with a mere thought. Yet, such a fearsome being was only one of the Seven Emperors of the Deep Sea. It was evident how terrifying the current powerhouses of Earth had become.

*Hehehe…* Nine Tails chuckled, her eyes flickering as she gazed at the powerful beings on the plain.

Soon, she explained her purpose, “This time, the Divine Tree has the intention of selecting prodigies to enter the Divine Realms for training.”

The Divine Realms were a mysterious land that had arisen within Misty Mountains at an unknown time. Rumor had it that they were like paradise, where Spiritual Energy was dense that it condensed into mist, and Spiritual Flowers and Fruits covered the land.

It was truly a sacred place for cultivation.

Upon hearing Nine Tails mention the ‘Divine Realms,’ a palpable tension swept through the gathered powerhouses. Even the most composed among them showed signs of unease. The most hot-headed of the group, Chi Yan, could not contain himself. Taking a bold step forward, he looked up at the sky, his fiery eyes burning with curiosity and disbelief.

“Great One,” he called out, his voice thick with anticipation, “is there truly such a place as the Divine Realms?”

“What do you think?” With a teasing smile, Nine Tails countered with a question of her own.

“What do I think?” Pointing at himself, Chi Yan was left completely bewildered.

After a moment, seeing Chi Yan’s confused expression, Nine Tails could not help but shake her head.

[Just as Sarcosuchus had said, ‘Chi Yan is pure-hearted, and has the innocence of a child. Simply put, he was a bit naive—almost foolish.]

*Hehe…* With a grin, Nine Tails’ Spiritual Energy surged, causing the fiery waves that engulfed the sky to roil and churn. Amidst the rolling flames, a massive projection began to take form in the sky, revealing the image of a distant, fiery world.

It was a realm bathed in red. The Spiritual Energy there was so dense that it seemed almost tangible, hanging in the air like a fine mist.

Stretching across the land below was an expansive forest of Spirit Trees—Flame Trees, to be precise—each one a rare Tier-3 Spirit Tree. Such Trees were considered precious on Earth, yet in this realm, the powerhouses witnessed an entire forest of them.

At the far edge of the forest stood a towering Flame Tree, its body a deep, burning crimson. Much larger than the others, it stood quietly, exuding an awe-inspiring presence.

“A Tier-4 Flame Tree?” Chi Yan cried out in disbelief, his voice trembling.

A Tier-4 Spirit Tree, and a Fire-Attribute Flame Tree at that. For him, it was the Supreme Treasure among Supreme Treasures.

[If I can find it, I would not even need to break off a branch. Simply sitting beneath the Flame Tree, cultivating in its presence, would be enough to further awaken my Fire God Bloodline. Stepping into the realm of Demigods would become merely a matter of time.] [A Tier-4 Spirit Tree like this, and there are…]  With just a quick glance, Chi Yan spotted three of them.

“Uh….” With all kinds of thoughts racing through his mind, Chi Yan’s expression became one of excitement, even with a hint of overwhelming joy.

“Great One, I wish to go, I need to go…”  Chi Yan repeatedly cried, bouncing like a child.

However, just then, as the endless flames surged once more, another world appeared before their eyes…

One world…

Then another.

The images of five different worlds unfolded, stirring the hearts of the gathered powerhouses.

Raising their heads, they all started breathing heavily.

Even Spirit Turtle, one of the Seven Emperors of the Sea Clans—who had gained a fearsome reputation among the prodigies of Earth—had his pupils contract. He stared fixedly at the last world that had been revealed—the Realm of Life, where a single Spirit Tree had appeared.

*Haaaa, hoooo…* With his breathing growing heavier, Spirit Turtle suppressed his excitement and took a step forward, his voice deep and resonant, “Great One, is there a Dragon Tree in the Divine Realms?”

The Dragon Tree was a Supreme Treasure of the Dragon Clan. Although the Spirit Turtle did not possess Dragon Bloodline, he still had a deep need for such a rare treasure.

What had he just seen? A high-quality Dragon Tree, its form resembling a True Dragon soaring across Heaven, its mighty roots coiled around the peak of a towering mountain.

*Gulp…* Swallowing nervously, Spirit Turtle’s expression changed.

“You have good eyes…” With a soft laugh, the image behind Nine Tails paused.

Then, the focus zoomed in, finally revealing a lush, emerald-green plant resembling a Dragon ascending to Heaven.

The Dragon Tree was a Spirit Tree Formed from the Azure Dragon’s power that had unintentionally leaked out while Yu Zi Yu cultivated.

Having reached Tier-6, Yu Zi Yu’s Azure Dragon Form had become the Heavens of the Nine Small Worlds, equivalent to the very Principles of the Nine Small Worlds.

Though this Dragon Tree had been created unintentionally, it was still one of the rarest treasures among the Nine Small Worlds.

Although it was only a Tier-4 Spirit Tree, to those who needed it, it surpassed even Tier-5 Spirit Trees.

And Spirit Turtle was precisely the one who needed it most.

In fact, Spirit Turtle’s talent was truly outstanding, one of the few beings that Nine Tails paid special attention to.

Therefore, a little care was only appropriate.

As the flames swirled, they finally revealed a naturally formed Spirit Tree, resembling a soaring Dragon, further stirring Spirit Turtle.

Faintly, two streams of white mist could be seen emerging from Spirit Turtle’s nostrils…

At this moment, as if whispering in his ear, Nine Tails’ voice resonated in Spirit Turtle’s heart, “Indeed, that is a Dragon Tree, and it’s of exceptional quality.

It suits you perfectly…If you meet the Divine Tree, you might want to make a humble request…”
