Chapter 20 The Sacred Fruit of Life
With a thought, Lu Ming entered the inner world of the Thunderlight Vine 'Little Thunder', the vibrant 'Forest of Life'.
Towering ancient trees stand tall, exotic flowers and rare herbs abound, and the air is filled with a rich sense of life.
In the very center of the forest, the life-giving fruit tree, its entire body emerald green and radiating a shimmering, precious light, stands out prominently.
After being nourished in the Forest of Life and regularly watered with 'Fruit Heart Dew', the Fruit Tree of Life is growing more and more vigorously. The three heart-shaped fruits of life on the branches, shrouded in seven-colored light, are beating more powerfully and emitting more and more pure and magnificent life energy, and are close to being fully mature.
"Tree of Life, soon you will be a higher level being."
Lu Ming stood under the tree, gazing up at the magnificent plant, his heart filled with anticipation.
Without the slightest hesitation, he issued the command to the system.
"System! Sacrifice my item—the Tree of Life!"
The moment the command was given, a familiar scene unfolded once again.
An indescribable, gentle yet supreme light appeared out of nowhere, enveloping the entire Tree of Life and the area around it.
Amidst the light, the Tree of Life and its three precious fruits began to fade into the ethereal, breaking down into the purest particles of life essence, which were then drawn into an invisible vortex.
[Ding! Sacrifice successful!]
[Returning funds at a random multiple based on the value of the offerings...]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received an 8,400-fold return reward!]
Eight thousand four hundred times! That's another extremely high multiple!
Lu Ming's heart tightened, and he stared intently at the invisible vortex.
[Rewards being generated...]
[Congratulations, host! You have obtained: Tree of Life (Infancy)!]
The instant the system's voice fell, the invisible vortex suddenly spewed out a vast, sea-like torrent of emerald green water!
That was the purest and most primal life energy, its quality and quantity far exceeding the life fruit tree sacrificed before by more than ten thousand times!
Rumbling--
The entire Forest of Life trembled, as if welcoming the arrival of a supreme monarch!
A vibrant green torrent of life converges and coalesces wildly in the center of the forest, and a nascent tree rises from the ground at a visible speed, growing wildly!
Ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters, ten thousand meters... one hundred thousand meters... one million kilometers!
Ultimately, a colossal tree, over a million kilometers tall and with a canopy diameter exceeding two million kilometers, stood majestically at the heart of the Forest of Life!
Its scale is so vast that it seems to be a world in itself!
This giant tree is entirely adorned with a noble purplish-gold color, its trunk coiled like a dragon, exuding an ancient and vast aura.
The leaves are no longer simply emerald green, but rather like they have been carved from the purest emeralds, with golden liquid flowing through their veins.
The entire tree constantly radiates a gentle yet powerful life energy, giving all the plants in the Forest of Life unprecedented vitality, and even seemingly enhancing the stability of the space.
And this is only the "infancy stage"!
Most strikingly, hanging atop the towering, purple-gold canopy are thirteen fruits that radiate a soft glow like miniature stars.
[Item name]: Holy Tree of Life (infancy stage)
[Characteristics Description]: Contains a trace of the laws of life; its emanating life energy can nourish all things, slow aging, and heal all irregular injuries. Its fruit, the 'Sacred Fruit of Life,' contains a trace of life power. When consumed by a Realm Lord, it can directly enhance their life gene level (the extent varies depending on the individual, with a maximum of one hundred times). When consumed by an Immortal, it can reshape their divine body.
[Current Status]: Infancy stage, requiring a large amount of cosmic primordial energy and special nutrients for cultivation.
The Tree of Life!
The sacred fruit of life!
Looking at the information fed back by the system, even though Lu Ming was mentally prepared, he was still so excited that he could hardly contain himself!
This has completely transcended the category of ordinary treasures; it is a divine object involving the fundamental laws of the universe!
Its value is simply immeasurable by using mixed units!
"Hahaha! Great! That's fantastic!"
Lu Ming's consciousness burst into laughter beneath the Tree of Life.
This sacrifice transformed a relatively precious Tree of Life into a divine tree with limitless potential and immeasurable value! This return is an incredible windfall!
"It's a pity the limit is 100 times, but it's still pretty good. If I can't use it, I can give it to someone else."
The first thing that came to his mind was his support plant, the Thunderlight Vine!
With a thought, Lu Ming waved his hand, and the thirteen "Sacred Fruits of Life" on the crown of the Sacred Tree of Life, which radiated a soft light like small stars, fell off and flew into his hand.
He didn't linger in his inner world for long. He returned to the outside world and appeared in the rest cabin of the Bluebird spaceship the next moment.
With palm open, a sacred fruit of life floats up, emitting a delightful fragrance and boundless vitality.
"Xiao Lei".
Lu Ming called out softly.
In an instant, a shrunken lightning vine, wrapped in fine silver electric snakes, appeared from Lu Ming's wrist and affectionately rubbed against his palm.
"Owner."
"This sacred fruit of life is now in your hands. Try it and see how it goes."
Lu Ming pushed the suspended fruit toward the Thunderlight Vine.
The vines of the Thunderlight Vine carefully extended out, gently wrapping around the sacred fruit of life.
The moment they made contact, the Sacred Fruit of Life was completely absorbed by the Thunderlight Vine.
Om-!
A powerful surge of life force erupted from within the Thunderlight Vine!
The natural lightning patterns on the vines became more complex and profound, with faint golden laws flowing within them.
Crackling!
Inside the rest cabin, countless tiny sparks of electricity appeared out of nowhere, and the air was filled with active lightning energy.
The Thunder Vine expanded in size at a visible rate, and the energy level it emitted rose steadily, spreading out a powerful aura far exceeding its previous strength.
After a short while, the energy fluctuations gradually subsided.
The main vine of the Thunderlight Vine swayed excitedly.
"Master! This...this is unbelievable!"
Xiao Lei's voice was filled with unbelievable excitement.
"I feel... a qualitative leap has occurred in the essence of my life! My physical strength and energy reserves have increased at least tenfold!"
Lu Ming felt the transformative change in the Thunderlight Vine and nodded in satisfaction.
A tenfold increase in the genetic level of life is an unimaginable leap forward for life, signifying a comprehensive surge in potential and combat power.
"Very good. The effects of this sacred fruit of life are indeed extraordinary."
A glint of light flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
Then Lu Ming took out nine more Life Sacred Fruits.
"Come on, keep going!"
One piece increases the power tenfold, with a maximum of one hundredfold. This means that just nine more pieces are needed to raise the genetic level of the Thunder Vine to one hundred!
Combat power increased a hundredfold!
Good heavens, the Thunder Vine itself is 216 vines, if its combat power increases a hundredfold!
The current Lei Guang Teng is probably almost comparable to being granted a noble title.
When I have more money in the future, I can purchase the resources needed for the perfect cultivation plan in the virtual universe, so that I can achieve immortality or even become a king!
Wow, the strongest lightning vine in the universe is about to be born!
Chapter 21 Two Trillion
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
One after another, streaks of emerald green light disappeared into the main body of the Thunderlight Vine.
With each Life Fruit it absorbed, the Thunder Vine's aura surged!
The moment the ninth, and final, sacred fruit of life was completely absorbed—
boom! ! !
A terrifying aura, far exceeding anything seen before, erupted from within the Thunder Vine like a cosmic storm!
If Lu Ming hadn't used his Force to protect everything inside the rest pod in time, it would probably have been reduced to dust instantly.
The dazzling purple-gold light illuminated the entire rest cabin as if a divine kingdom had descended!
The immense pressure made Lu Ming feel a chill run down his spine.
He had no doubt that, at this moment, Xiao Lei, in terms of energy intensity alone, had already surpassed the vast majority of ordinary immortals!
And this is only a ninth-tier auxiliary plant life at the realm master level!
Its true combat power, relying on a hundred times the genetic level and the terrifying foundation of 216 vines, has absolutely reached a terrifying level!
The light gradually dimmed, and the Thunderlight Vine returned to its normal size.
But anyone could sense the devastating power hidden beneath that calm exterior.
"Owner."
Xiao Lei's voice was filled with boundless excitement.
