Chapter 439: Chapter 435: Major Undertaking
Condense the Divine Fragment!
Upon seeing the task’s introduction, Lin You was utterly shocked.
Could this be the method those lords mentioned for Tier Nine Lords to ascend to Tier Ten?
He didn’t expect it to appear in such a form.
Looking at the list of items to collect, he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Because every single item requires immense effort and time to gather.
Many lords might not meet the requirements even in their lifetime.
The only requirement he could meet was the Origin Space.
That being said,
The last Rule Fragment is what those lords mentioned, the item that requires killing a Tier Ten Demon solo to obtain?
No wonder so many Tier Nine Lords are stuck at this level, unable to reach Tier Ten.
Seeing this list, Lin You finally deeply felt the enormous difficulty.
He quickly opened the territory interface for a quick look.
[Name: World Tree (Territory)]
[Category: Plant Type]
[Level: Tier Nine]
[Durability: 25000/25000 (+5000)]
[Recruitment Number: 650/1000 (+300)]
[Upgrade Requirements: Power of Faith (627/250,000), Divine Fragment (3/1)]
[Introduction: The prototype of the World Tree, requiring the nourishment of the Power of Faith. Upon reaching a certain level, it can evolve a realm and transcend the world.]
...
Uh...
It seems like
he doesn’t need to do this task to upgrade?
Lin You stared blankly at the 3/1 under the upgrade requirements, indicating he currently possesses three Divine Fragments.
This means
he just needs to accumulate 250,000 Faith to directly ascend to Tier Ten!
Moreover, he even saves the magic energy and Tier Nine Territory Essence required for condensing the Divine Format, as all of these are included within the Divine Fragment.
If those Tier Nine Lords knew about this, they would probably be insanely jealous.
After all, Tier Ten is their lifelong pursuit.
"Tier Ten..."
Lin You murmured softly, a trace of longing in his eyes.
The power of a Tier Ten Lord is undoubtedly undeniable.
The most important thing is, upon ascending to Tier Ten, he could unlock the remaining functions of the Divine Fragment, fully unleashing its power.
Although this is still very far from him.
250,000 Faith is no small number; who knows how long it will take to gather enough.
What he can do is to quickly develop his territory and turn Yellow Sand City into a commercial hub connecting various duchies.
In this way, his Power of Faith can increase faster.
Thinking of this, Lin You promptly opened the Origin Interface for a look.
The hints just now seemed to mention that the Origin Space has unlocked a new function, which should naturally not be forgotten.
[Name: World Tree (Origin)]
[Category: Plant Type]
[Level: Tier Nine (2100/10100)]
[Range: 2100 meters]
[Sacred Artifact Effect: All Attributes +40%/Shield +20%]
[Talent Effect: Constitution +10%, Recovery Speed +10%]
[Function: Soul Domain, Racial Talent (Aura), Summoning Space, Storage Space (can place any non-living items into the Origin Space, species unlimited)]
This is...
A storage function?
Seeing the introduction of the new function, Lin You paused for a moment, then his eyes brightened immediately.
After Tier Nine, the Origin Space can actually be used to store items!
Doesn’t this mean he can store a large number of demon corpses in the Origin Space and use them at critical moments for Cyan Rattan to devour, causing a major explosion?
Previously,
his personal space could only hold two to three hundred corpses at most.
Even if Cyan Rattan devoured them all, the enhancement from the Bloody Frenzy was very limited.
But with this storage function, it’s completely different.
With a whole 10-kilometer range of space, he can store as many corpses as he wants. At that time, will he fear that Cyan Rattan cannot burst sufficiently?
This practically gave him another trump card.
"What a great function!"
Lin You couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
Then he continued to look at the Sacred Artifact Interface.
Upon reaching Tier Nine, the Territorial Sacred Artifact finally unlocked the Level Four effect, granting him an extra Territory Skill.
[Sacred Artifact Name: Natural Balance (Plant Type)]
[Level One: All Attributes +10%, every 10 seconds receive a shield equivalent to 5% of Constitution.]
[Level Two: All Attributes +10%, Shield +5%]
[Level Three: All Attributes +10%, Shield +5%]
[Level Four: Territory Skill "Natural Balance"]
[Natural Balance (Passive): Gain attributes equal to Shield durability and distribute them evenly to the four basic attributes.]
[Trait (Territory): All Attributes +30%, Shield +15%]
[Trait (Common): Sacred Artifact Effect improves with Origin Space level.]
Lin You had waited a long time for this skill.
Under the enhancement of Origin Space, the shield effect of his Sacred Artifact has reached 20%.
Distributing these attributes evenly would result in several hundred or even a thousand points.
Although it would fluctuate with the shield strength, it’s an extremely powerful group buff.
Moreover, with the high constitution common in plant types, this skill’s effect is further enhanced, perfectly complementing his species.
These.
Are the external enhancements he gained after upgrading to Tier Nine.
Overall, the effects are quite remarkable.
Next, there’s only the most crucial phase left: Species Mutation!
Lin You glanced at the slowly setting sun, didn’t waste any time, and immediately approached the World Tree, taking out the two Species Tokens he had with him.
[Would you like to use the Species Token "Deep Blue Dream (Rare)"?]
"Use."
[Would you like to use the Species Token "Illusion Sword Grass (Ordinary)"?]
"Use."
With two responses falling, the tokens in his hands turned into streams of light and merged into the newly upgraded World Tree.
At the same time.
In the recruitment interface’s Tier Nine category, two new species also appeared.
Without much thought, Lin You directly recruited one of each.
[Recruiting Tier Nine Species requires consuming 250,000 Magic Energy. Would you like to recruit?]
"Yes."
Swish!
A light glowed, and two unique yet extremely familiar plants appeared before Lin You.
There’s no need to say much about Deep Blue Dream, it’s almost identical to the giant blue rose he saw on the battlefield before, with a distorted human face growing inside.
And the moment it appeared, countless blue thorns with buds burst out, instantly spreading throughout the entire territory, turning his territory into a terrifying forest of Thorn Entanglement.
[Name: Deep Blue Dream (Rare)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Nine (0/10000)]
[Power: 4200]
[Constitution: 4200]
[Agility: 4000]
[Spirit: 4450]
[Skills: Deep Blue Illusion Realm (Builds an illusion realm based on thorns within attack range, causing vision and perception confusion, its effects depend on the opponent’s spirit.), Spiritual Disruption (Emits a spiritual shock, reducing the spirit attribute of enemies within range by 50% for 10 seconds.), Spiritual Storm (Releases all energy, causing continuous spiritual destruction to surrounding enemies, damage depends on the strength of the opponent’s spirit.)]
[Introduction: A rose plant highly proficient in spiritual attacks, can create an illusion realm within its surrounding area, with extremely bizarre attacks.]
Spiritual class attacks are quite unique.
Unlike other types of attacks that calculate damage based on the opponent’s constitution, they are based on the spirit attribute.
In other words.
The weaker the opponent’s spirit, the higher the damage taken, and the deeper the influence of the illusion realm.
Yet, this species’ second skill precisely reduces the opponent’s spirit attribute.
Although not as overpowering as that former Lord Demon, combined with the Spiritual Storm, it’s still an incredibly terrifying attack method.
Especially since spiritual attacks are hard to guard against and elusive.
It’s simply an unexpected deadly move.
After studying the attributes and skills for a while, Lin You let Deep Blue Dream activate the Deep Blue Illusion Realm on him.
In the next second.
The scene before him twisted, transforming into a bizarre garden full of blue roses.
He attempted to walk within for over ten minutes, but couldn’t escape the garden’s range.
Then, once he deactivated the skill, he discovered that he had circled a large round in the territory, with the ground covered in his footprints.
"This skill is great; it can perfectly pair with Cyan Rattan."
Lin You praised, immediately instructing Deep Blue Dream to spread the rose thorns into Cyan Rattan’s Vine Forest. With the combination, it made the surroundings of his territory even more eerily profound.
At this point, if any lord dared to intrude into his territory, it seems they would never manage to leave.
Because within Cyan Rattan’s Vine Forest, it also reduces the enemy’s spirit attribute by 10%.
The two are simply a perfect match.
Lin You nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the main attraction of the day, the unremarkable Illusion Sword Grass.
[Name: Illusion Sword Grass (Ordinary)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Nine (0/10000)]
[Power: 2000]
[Constitution: 2000]
[Agility: 2000]
[Spirit: 2000]
[Skills: Hardening, Infinite Reproduction (Consumes Power of Nature to split and reproduce identical individuals, granting them attributes identical to the original, unaffected by other enhancements), Flying Leaf Sword Dance]
[Introduction: The Illusion Sword Grass possesses an extremely strong reproductive capability, as it regrows after a wildfire and revives with the spring breeze.]
Indeed, just as that Tier Nine Lord had said.
The reproduction skill of the Tier Nine Illusion Sword Grass has become somewhat different from before.
Previously, it "reproduced individuals identical to the original," without inheriting the effects of Symbiotic Moss.
But now it’s different.
The reproduced entities’ attributes are completely identical to the original, meaning whatever the original’s attributes are, so will the reproduced entities’. As the original’s attributes improve, the reproduced entities’ attributes will also increase.
It resembles a sort of attribute-sharing effect.
This change might not make much of a difference to an Illusion Sword Grass with only 2000 points of attributes, but for Lin You, possessing a Mutated Ability, it’s a qualitative leap.
It even suddenly outweighed Four-leaf Clover Protection in his heart.
"Alright, let’s start mutating."
Lin You took a deep breath and immediately opened the recruitment interface to recruit Illusion Sword Grass one by one.
Currently, he has a total of 1300 species slots.
His plan is to form an entire team composed of reproduction species, totaling 600, pairing them with Symbiotic Moss two by two.
As for the remaining 100 slots, they will be reserved for Royal Family, Plant Dragon, Equipment Species, and those territorial support species.
This is quite a large project.
He probably won’t get to sleep until very late tonight.
With that in mind.
Lin You wasted no more time, brought a chair, sat down, and began his great undertaking of mutation.
...
