Chapter 992: Chapter 685: God-Level Shining Gold
Snow Velvet, Blood Root, along with four other Old Spider Kings, stepped forward and activated the Nightfall ability, erecting a barrier that isolated the detection of spiritual power.
The Blood Root Spider King asked, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, how is it?"
Dragon Cypress shook its tentacle and said, "Azure has a special origin, it’s an exception. Other Water System Origin Force Plants won’t work. I’ve already arranged for them to condense their Tree Hearts, preparing to return to Rainbow Island."
Blood Root Spider King: "This result may be somewhat disappointing to Ling Chong. However, Dragon Cypress Ant King, aren’t you curious or tempted? The Azure Divine-Given Seed, can it not rely on the Ocean God’s Scepter to break through the limitation of nine Divine Marks and go further?"
"Go further? Of course, I’m curious! I definitely want to try! But not now."
Dragon Cypress raised a tentacle, saying, "Firstly, forcibly activating the Ocean God’s Scepter twice consumed nearly 8 billion Source Stones instantly, already touching the limits of the continent’s Source Stone market balance, it can’t be tried again in the short term; secondly..."
Dragon Cypress looked serious, raising another tentacle, "The Azure Soul has been reborn, starting from scratch, obtaining all eight Divine Marks consecutively in a short time, it needs time to digest these suddenly acquired powers. Thirdly..."
Ink Orchid listened to the conversation, maneuvering nimbly, approached, and stood side by side with Dragon Cypress, helping to raise a tentacle.
Dragon Cypress: "..."
Dragon Cypress retorted, "Blood Root Spider King, aren’t you five old spiders too curious? Aren’t you leaving?"
A slight ripple of Primordial Energy swayed the body of the Blood Root Spider King.
Age Period Insect King.
Whether to leave or not is no longer up to oneself.
The next Expedition Year is in three years.
Dragon Cypress fell silent.
Ink Orchid asked, "Snow Velvet Spider King, are you departing with the Mountain Pepper Ant King and others?"
Snow Velvet Spider King: "This time, few insects are leaving, we’ll all gather and leave at Dragon Stride Mountain."
Ink Orchid: "Dragon Cypress and I will see you off."
Snow Velvet Spider King: "...Thank you."
Fork Pillar Spider King pursued and asked, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, aren’t you planning to let the Azure Divine-Given Seed try?"
"After three to four hundred years, when the total Source Stones on the continent again reach a safe balance, then consider it."
Dragon Cypress dissatisfiedly asked, "Aren’t you few old spiders curious? Is worrying that I’d mess around the reason?"
Fork Pillar Spider King: "That’s right."
Blood Root Spider King: "You’re that kind of ant. We are quite concerned..."
...
After some idle chatter, the five Spider Kings and a group of onlooking Insect Kings took their leave.
After waiting for a few days,
four Divine-Given Seeds condensed their Tree Hearts.
The Stems were refined into Blue Refinement Beads.
Dragon Cypress personally directed the ant swarm to work, backfilling the reservoir, laying stone slabs, restoring the grounds.
The aftermath work was completed.
The team set off and returned to Rainbow Island.
...
...
Sea Blue, Blue Ice Cypress, and Black An take root as usual for rebirth, resuming growth.
Dragon Cypress drove the Dominating Throne, carrying Spruce, Ink Orchid, and the Azure Tree Heart, heading directly towards the Purple Tung Insect Nation.
Under the Linnan Divine Tree, Wisteria was training four small insects of different sizes, with an even smaller insect standing beside them.
Three Barley Bug Little Warriors.
And two Shield Grasshopper Warriors, the larger named Black Wood, already a High-Level Warrior; the smaller one born four years ago, named White Wood, just an Intermediate Little Warrior.
"Quandong Divine Tree."
"Linnan Divine Tree."
"Huagi Divine Tree."
"Jinhe. Purple Tung. Night Fragrance."
The Dominating Throne skimmed low, greeting each in turn.
Spruce and Ink Orchid spiraled down midway, landing under the Linnan Divine Tree.
Dragon Cypress then descended directly towards the Huagi Divine Tree.
"Azure Divine-Given Seed?"
On the oval egg-shaped Azure Tree Heart were nine blue rings of varying depth.
The spiritual power of all trees in the Land of Origin Force scanned and were surprised, a series of inquiries came:
"The Peak Tree King’s Primordial Energy breath~!"
"Isn’t the Azure Divine-Given Seed your Life Seed? Its Evolution Level surpassed yours in reverse?"
"An ant? What’s happening?"
"Is this the effect of the Ocean God’s Scepter?"
"Or is it due to the Azure Divine-Given Seed falling from a super high Evolution Level?"
"Dragon Cypress Ant King, can the Ocean God’s Scepter indeed help Water System Divine-Given Seeds to condense Divine Marks?"
Dragon Cypress replied, "We just tested it, Sea Blue, Blue Ice Cypress, and Black An, the three Divine-Given Seeds didn’t work, only Azure could be arranged, at a full stretch, to condense all nine Divine Marks."
Dragon Cypress explained the situation succinctly, equally puzzled, saying, "I also don’t understand why Azure broke through the Soul Bond, with Evolution Level exceeding mine."
Dragon Cypress paused, and added, "But it’s still suppressed at the King-Level Peak by Natural Law."
Azure vibrated its spiritual power in greeting, "Greetings Huagi Divine Tree~"
"Hello~"
The Huagi Divine Tree responded, guessing the purpose of Dragon Cypress’ visit.
These old trees are each smarter than the last.
The Jinhe Divine-Given Seed assisted in asking, "Dragon Cypress Ant King, you’re bringing the Azure Life Seed here for...?"
Dragon Cypress retorted, "Jinhe Divine-Given Seed, I’ve heard, did you once borrow the God-Level Shining Gold to break through the King-Level? And later fell back down?"
Jinhe paused for a moment to grasp Dragon Cypress’ implication, then said, "That’s different. Very different. Without the suppression of Natural Law, the growth and evolution of Divine-Given Seeds and Insect Clan Warriors at King-Level don’t require Divine Marks."
"I did it this way, when I condensed three Divine Marks, reaching the 3 Age Period Tree King level, I borrowed the Huagi’s God-Level Shining Gold, shielding the Stellar Realm Laws, suppressing own breath, absorbing Origin Force, unhindered, directly breaking through to King-Level, advancing to Scar Realm, straight to the peak of Third Trace Realm, condensing the fourth Divine Mark, breaking through again, entering the ’Nine Traces Realm’."
"At super high life levels, comprehending Divine Marks is relatively easier, and in less than three thousand years, I condensed nine Divine Marks, reaching completion of Nine Traces Realm. The next big realm is ’Star Marks’, but it’s too difficult, it feels impossible without thousands of years of accumulation, so I gave up."
