#1036 - The different evolutions of the Golden Tree and the Dark Blue Silver Seaweed

The evolved Golden Tree experienced frenzied growth in its roots, branches, and trunk.

The entire tree's volume instantly more than doubled.

The root system, which had previously only covered the upper levels of the pyramid, rapidly extended downwards, and wherever the roots spread, a rich aura of light and life, carrying a hint of serenity and tranquility, filled every room.

Due to the Golden Tree's evolution, the energy concentration within the rooms noticeably increased by a level. Combined with the inherent abilities of the Golden Pivot, each room became a treasure trove for recuperation and cultivation.

The explosive increase in volume conveniently consumed the surge of energy reserves within the barrier.

Massive amounts of pure energy were being integrated into the Golden Tree, fueling its momentum and propelling it towards a higher realm.

The World Will, noticing this, frowned, as it sensed that the Golden Tree was somewhat unable to handle the nourishment and couldn't properly digest the energy.

Therefore, it used its authority to trigger a tribulation of lightning within the crystal steel罩.

The World Will, coexisting and symbiotic with the barrier, chose at this moment to use its limited authority to interfere with the Golden Tree's evolution.

The Golden Tree, favored by the World Will, could have been spared the trials of lightning tribulation during its evolution, but the World Will observed that this path would not benefit the Golden Tree's future growth.

Therefore, it intended to use the power of the laws to forge a better foundation for the Golden Tree.

Understanding this, Jin Shu didn't interfere much, and instead focused on his own improvement.

"Boom!"

A nine-element lightning tribulation, shimmering with nine-colored light, struck the growing Golden Tree with powerful lightning.

The powerful lightning directly pierced through the entire trunk, dyeing the Golden Tree's leaves with nine colors.

Lacking powerful means to resist the lightning tribulation, the Golden Tree's trunk was struck with massive, charred lightning patterns.

The dispersing power of the lightning even scattered onto the Yang Pool, stirring up large amounts of mist.

Because its body was filled with pure energy, the Golden Tree would quickly heal as long as it wasn't killed instantly by a single strike, just like the Ghost Tiger and Little Ghost before.

The Golden Tree, possessing the attribute of life, far surpassed the Ghost Tiger in terms of recovery. Scorched wood encountered spring; the charred trunk, branches, and leaves were revitalized.

However, just as its will was weak and difficult to sustain, that trace of Mingwang aura within its heart stirred up the tree spirit's fighting spirit.

The incomparably firm and unshakeable Mingwang will gave the tree spirit endless confidence.

The unyielding will gradually burned under the baptism of the lightning tribulation.

Golden flames filled with life energy burned from the surface of the trunk.

Under the scorching of the flames, the charcoal quickly burned away, and the newly grown trunk rapidly proliferated.

When the lightning tribulation struck the Golden Tree again, the burning will bravely tempered itself.

In this process, a Mingwang intent belonging to the tree spirit itself quietly brewed in its heart.

While the Golden Tree was getting back on track, on the other side of the Golden Pool, the five Dark Blue Silver Seaweeds were also baring their fangs and claws, confronting a certain existence.

When the Mingwang aura massively scoured the formation eye through the barrier, the Dark Blue Silver Seaweeds, as a corner of Yin Wood, would naturally be augmented and scoured by the domain.

However, the inherently evil Dark Blue Silver Seaweeds were naturally incompatible with the Mingwang power.

What is honey to one is poison to another.

For the seaweeds, the Mingwang power was a deadly enemy that sought to purify them.

Therefore, unwilling to be purified, the seaweeds spontaneously mobilized all their strength to resist the invasion of the purification power.

Fortunately, there were endless energy attacks within the barrier, and the Mingwang power didn't intentionally target them or use purification power, so they could barely hold on.

However, the Mingwang power, fused with four kinds of artistic conception, even if it was just the naturally overflowing aura, couldn't be defended against by mere instinctual resistance.

The five seaweeds struggled miserably, emitting a dense black mist that couldn't be easily dispersed, like squids spraying ink in a desperate struggle.

Although the Mingwang aura's baptism wouldn't destroy their lives, the purification and erasure of their will was more terrifying to them than the demise of their bodies.

The Mingwang power did indeed have extremely strong amplification effects, but its terror would only truly manifest in beings that were opposed to it.

Also facing a life-or-death crisis, the Dark Blue Silver Seaweeds could only rely on their own will to resist. Not to mention the environment, even Jin Shu wouldn't help them.

Because, in his judgment, the Mingwang power wouldn't affect the dark attributes of the seaweeds themselves. It only evolved the evil nature of the seaweeds themselves.

Once they were completely evolved, it might become easier to control them.

In a situation of isolation and helplessness, they could only desperately devour energy, strengthen themselves, and drive the firmness of their will with the improvement of their cultivation.

But the Dark Blue Silver Seaweeds, which were already in a state of supersaturation for a long time, couldn't achieve more efficient digestion.

Among the five seaweeds, several began to show signs of withering one after another.

The resistance of the dark energy emitted from their bodies was slowly weakening.

Without the effect of the group, the last seaweed wrapped in the center also began to accelerate purification.

At this point, the Mingwang aura from the outside was still becoming stronger as the fusion between the domains deepened.

The last seaweed, barely supporting its branches out of the water, trembled violently, using this to express its resistance to the Mingwang aura.

The unyielding evil nature trembled unwillingly.

In this moment of despair, the branches and leaves of this seaweed touched the branches and leaves of the four seaweeds that had fallen into the pool around it.

In this instant, driven by the instinct for survival and unyielding evil nature, this seaweed actually activated its devouring power on its own kind.

The Dark Blue Silver leaf veins erupted with terrifying devouring power, ruthlessly extracting the energy and bloodlines of the four seaweeds that had lost their will to resist.

The shrinking black mist rejuvenated due to the energy replenishment of the other seaweeds, expanded outwards, and continued to resist the foreign aura.

Of course, more important than these was the devouring of the other seaweeds' spirituality, which could directly give a shot in the arm to its withering spirit.

When the seaweed absorbed other seaweeds, it showed a different kind of stagnation than when it absorbed other energies.

The devoured seaweeds seemed to be a part of itself, almost integrating into one seaweed with the efficiency of a sacrifice.

The four seaweeds transformed into Dark Blue Silver energy beams, rapidly merging into one seaweed from all directions.

Crack!

The only remaining one also made a sound of breaking through the bottleneck.
