Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Return to Earth
"What about after twenty years?" Li Yang pressed.
Soul Ink said, "Once the Human Race Saint Hall stops paying attention to you, if the Celestial Net comes to Earth stealthily, you’ll basically have no way to resist."
In twenty years, Earth wouldn’t have developed much. The Human Race Saint Hall wouldn’t pay much attention to a planet like this.
"No way to resist at all?"
Li Yang clenched his fists, rage burning in his heart. ’Damn that Jin Mola, and damn the Celestial Net.’
Earth has always been watched by the Yuanlan Clan. Even now that they’ve officially made contact with the Cosmos, they haven’t escaped the crisis.
In twenty years, when the Human Race Saint Hall’s branch withdraws from Earth, destruction might be all that awaits the planet.
Though filled with anger, Li Yang took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
’I need to get back to Earth first!’
He had twenty years. He still had opportunities, though hope was slim.
The most urgent task now was to return to Earth and nurture the Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar!
Once it was nurtured, his comprehension of the Space Law would skyrocket!
...
After contacting Lu Tower, Li Yang arrived at the Human Race Saint Hall’s branch in the Milky Way Galaxy.
"Haha, Li Yang! It’s been over a month, and your power has improved greatly," Lu Tower said with a laugh, looking at Li Yang.
With his strength, he could naturally tell that Li Yang had already reached the Peak of Law Realm.
However, advancing from the Early Law Realm to the Peak of Law Realm was just a matter of accumulating energy. As long as one had money, it could be easily achieved by consuming a few energy serums.
So, he wasn’t surprised.
"Lord Lu Tower, I’d like to make a trip back to Earth," Li Yang said.
"No problem," Lu Tower replied with a smile.
His mission at the branch hall involved zipping back and forth between various planets anyway.
Escorting Li Yang back to Earth was a nice, easy task. Besides, he could continue his cultivation on the ship.
The ship started up and flew directly into a spatial wormhole.
「Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.」
...
Above a certain spot in the ocean, Li Guohai, Zhao Rou, Li Xue, Zhou Yao, and the others were waiting.
"Mom, why isn’t Uncle here yet?"
Little Tongtong, who was about three or four years old, asked in a cute, childish voice as she tugged on Li Xue’s hand.
They all knew Li Yang would be returning to Earth any moment.
"He’ll be here soon," Li Xue said, picking up her daughter and stroking her little head.
Beside Li Xue was none other than Li Yang’s mother, Zhao Rou.
Zhao Rou had a smile on her face, but a clear trace of heartache was visible in her eyes.
"Brother Hai, Yangyang must have suffered so much, all alone in the Cosmos."
In the vast Cosmos, so far from Earth, Li Yang’s life out there couldn’t possibly be as good as it was back home.
Li Guohai said, "Yangyang is the master of Earth now. It’s normal for him to do these things. We should be proud of him."
His eyes held both pride and heartache. For the sake of Earth, Li Yang had ventured into the Cosmos all by himself. Thinking about it, the responsibility Li Yang shouldered was truly immense.
But there was nothing they could do. This was a responsibility only Li Yang could bear.
As they spoke, Zhou Yao stood silently, her gaze fixed on a point in the empty sky, her eyes filled with anticipation.
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, a ship appeared out of nowhere, as if it had just crossed through space.
The ship’s hatch opened, and Li Yang walked out.
"Yangyang."
"Li Yang."
"Uncle."
Seeing Li Yang, the waiting Li Guohai and the others joyfully flew over to him.
Looking at his family, a smile touched Li Yang’s lips, and the heavy sense of urgency in his heart seemed to lift at once.
’This is Earth. This is my home. Before me are my family. This is the place I must protect forever!’
...
Deep beneath the sea on Earth, a white tree swayed gently.
It was the World Tree!
At this moment, the World Tree’s power had also reached the Peak of Law Realm.
Of course, the World Tree was not adept at combat; it just stayed here quietly.
Nearby, a giant octopus stood guard.
It was Li Yang’s octopus avatar!
The octopus avatar had previously died in the battle between Shen Xuan and Jin Mola, but it was later nurtured back to life by the World Tree. This had given Li Yang a true taste of its powerful resurrection ability!
As long as it wasn’t annihilated at the soul level, the World Tree could resurrect it, even if it died countless times!
’Now, to begin nurturing the Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar! Let’s see if this is even possible!’
After returning to Earth and having a brief reunion with his family, Li Yang had come to this place.
With a wave of his right hand, a drop of golden blood appeared. He placed it before the World Tree.
His heart was filled with apprehension. He wasn’t sure if the World Tree could nurture the Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon; he was just trying it out.
At that moment, Soul Ink’s phantom form floated out from the Soul Crystal to watch the scene unfold.
"Li Yang, I’ve told you before. The Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon’s life level is too high. It will be very difficult to nurture one."
Soul Ink believed it was utterly impossible for the World Tree to nurture a Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon.
This was a terrifying life form that could master three profundities of the Space Law just by reaching maturity!
The Space Law only has four profundities in total. Upon reaching adulthood, it masters three of them, leaving only the last one...
Once it comprehends that, it will enter the eternally undying Divine Realm!
In terms of life level, it was even higher than that of the World Tree.
But after he finished speaking, Soul Ink suddenly fell silent, his gaze fixed on the scene before him in astonishment.
HUMMM...
The World Tree pulsed gently, emitting a soft glow that enveloped the golden blood.
When the white light faded, the golden blood had completely vanished.
In Li Yang’s perception, a strange transformation was occurring within the World Tree’s nurturing space. The golden blood appeared there, and the aura of a new life began to slowly form.
The Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar was officially being nurtured!
’It can be nurtured!’
An expression of incredible excitement and joyous surprise suddenly appeared in Li Yang’s eyes.
He had only been trying it out, fully expecting a high probability of failure, but it had actually succeeded!
Once the Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar was nurtured, his comprehension speed for the Space Law would surpass even that of the Thunder Law!
’It actually managed to successfully nurture it?’
Beside them, Soul Ink watched in astonishment, a look of utter disbelief on his face.
A Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon—he had never heard of anyone possessing such a high-level, incomparably tyrannical life form as an avatar!
Besides the World Tree, there were other incredibly rare life forms in the Cosmos capable of nurturing avatars, but none of them could possibly create a Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon!
’The extent of this World Tree’s mutation is just insane, isn’t it?’
Soul Ink was unaware of the mysterious small sword and the cultivation techniques in Li Yang’s mind; he had always assumed the World Tree’s ability to continuously nurture avatars was due to its own mutation.
As he thought this, although Soul Ink was shocked, he immediately became overjoyed.
The ability to nurture a Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon meant that Li Yang would now grow even faster!
