“Congratulations to the Deputy Chief of the Heaven Alliance, Lin Xie, for breaking the Stairway Tree record. You"re rewarded with a G.o.dhead (Virtual G.o.d rank-9)!
“Congratulations Lin Xie for breaking through all checkpoints on the Stairway Tree. You"re rewarded with a soul marrow (first-rank True G.o.d-level)!
“Congratulations Lin Xie for breaking through all checkpoints on the Stairway Tree. You"re rewarded with a World Tree Seed!”
“Congratulations, Lin Xie, for breaking through all checkpoints on the Stairway Tree. You"ve won a treasure draw! Would you like to draw your prize now?”
Lin Huang was stunned to see the last reward and could not help but chuckle. “A treasure draw, eh? Did it learn that from Xiao Hei?”
However, he was very experienced at drawing prizes. He crushed a Lucky Card and only pressed the ‘yes" b.u.t.ton after waiting for the card to integrate into his body entirely.
A three-dimensional question mark popped up on Lin Huang"s Emperor"s Heart Ring after he pushed the b.u.t.ton.
The question mark began spinning quickly. It was so quick that Lin Huang could not catch it as various items were being swapped.
A red ‘stop" b.u.t.ton appeared before his eyes abruptly.
He stared at the projection for a long time. He only pressed the ‘stop" b.u.t.ton after confirming that he could not tell what item was being swapped before him.
The question mark turned into an item that looked like a giant hive the moment he pressed the b.u.t.ton.
‘What"s that?" Just when doubt popped into Lin Huang"s mind, a notification popped up on his Emperor"s Heart Ring again.
“Congratulations for drawing a galactic hive, Lin Xie!”
“What?!” Lin Huang was stunned to see the notification. He had no idea that he could draw a galactic hive.
However, the item looked more like a blown-up bee hive. Its diameter was around a meter, and it was totally different from the galactic hive that he had seen before.
Just when Lin Huang was thinking of putting it away, the beehive-like galactic hive turned into a black glow and penetrated his body directly.
He gazed into his body immediately. As expected, the hive began growing rapidly after penetrating his body. Although it was not as big as the main hive that was comparable to Earth that he saw the last time, it was no smaller than the two moon-sized affiliate hives.
“I guess I can even kill people just by summoning this thing since it"s so humongous!” He then looked at the other rewards after snapping back to reality.
G.o.dheads were nothing new to him. He could refine it to elevate his combat strength.
It was Lin Huang"s first time hearing about the soul marrow and the World Tree Seed. Although he went over vast knowledge back in the Hunter College, he had no idea what those two items were.
He took out the soul marrow which was a blue crystal that looked a little like a cerulean precious stone. However, it contained liquid and resembled a starry night that was flowing slowly inside.
Lin Huang could feel that this item contained endless spiritual energy.
“Stone tablet, what"s this soul marrow?” Asking whenever he had question had always been a good habit of his.
“This thing is similar to a soul jewel but is different. Soul jewels can only be consolidated after a spirit-type powerhouse is dead. However, the soul marrow is created slowly by the remnant of spiritual energy from a specific environment after the powerhouse has died.
“If you must tell them apart, a soul jewel"s energy is more overbearing and the density of spiritual energy is higher. Meanwhile, the soul marrow is milder and has powerful healing effect when one"s soul is damaged,” explained the stone tablet after thinking about it.
“That means Sister Mo Mo can use it.” Lin Huang thought about Wu Mo as soon as he was done listening to the explanation.
After putting the soul marrow away, he took the World Tree Seed out. It was an inconspicuous gray seed the size of his little finger. There was a layer of tiny scaly patterns covering it, and it looked like an ordinary seed.
“This is… a World Tree Seed?!” The stone tablet"s voice sounded a little shocked.
“Do you know about the World Tree Seed?” Lin Huang asked immediately.
“Of course I do. Every human being in the great world knows this.” The stone tablet felt its explanation was not quite descriptive enough, so it added, “Every living thing besides humans know this.”
“It sounds like a very valuable treasure.” Lin Huang"s eyes lit up when he heard that.
“The World Tree Seed, obviously, is the seed of the World Tree. In reality, the World Tree isn"t considered a plant, but a unique living thing created by time and s.p.a.ce. It"s similar to a heavenly G.o.d-level powerhouse"s sequence chain. However, it"s naturally made instead of having been refined. The main function of the World Tree is to consolidate the World Fruit. Each fruit is the equivalent of an ownerless gravel world.”
“The fruit is a gravel world?!” Lin Huang thought it was ridiculous. “So, what"s the function of those gravel worlds?”
“When one arrives on virtual G.o.d-level and builds their G.o.d Territory successfully, one can integrate their G.o.d Territory with the gravel world to strengthen their G.o.d Territory. The more gravel worlds are integrated, the more powerful the G.o.d Territory becomes. Especially after G.o.d order-level and G.o.d sequence-level, the more gravel worlds are integrated, the more powerful one"s G.o.d Territory"s rule power and sequence power would be.”
“So, the World Tree is like a hen that lays eggs,” Lin Huang concluded, “The G.o.d-level powerhouses needed to eat the eggs it laid for nutrition.”
“Yes. Integrating the World Tree would be equivalent to owning a hen that lays eggs, whereby you don"t have to spend money to buy eggs,” the stone tablet explained using the same metaphor, “So, you"ll only need to feed your hen and get it to lay eggs continuously.”
“But in order for it to bear fruit that"s like gravel worlds, I"ll need a sea of resources to cultivate the World Tree. Am I right?” Lin Huang soon realized the key problem.
“Yes, that"s the biggest disadvantage of the World Tree. It needs endless resources to be cultivated,” the stone tablet admitted that while smiling.
“But it doesn"t bring any disadvantages for you to cultivate it. All you need to do is to toss the seed in for integration when you build your G.o.d Territory. You won"t need to feed it resources intentionally after that since it doesn"t die or take your resources away on its own. It"ll grow when you feed it resources. Otherwise, its growth will stagnate if you don"t feed it. You can feed it resources when you really need to. As long as there"re enough resources, it can grow a World Fruit within a few days.”
“Is it that magical?” Lin Huang was a little motivated upon hearing that.
“The World Tree isn"t a plan, but a cosmic wonder that"s created by time and s.p.a.ce. Don"t treat it as an ordinary plant. Of course, it depends on you whether to integrate it or not. You can also sell it if it"s trouble to you. Then, you should be able to get a good price for it.”
“I"ll think about it.” Lin Huang did not make up his mind right away since he was still far away from elevating to virtual G.o.d-level.
It would take way too much resources to cultivate this thing, but it would bring many benefits if the cultivation was successful. Overall, there were pros and cons.
