I have an Apocalypse City

Chapter 1427: Chapter 1429: Planting the Tree of Life Chapter 1427: Chapter 1429: Planting the Tree of Life “The Tree of Life is a divine object that sustains the existence of heaven and earth!” the white-furred monkey man said, his eyes fixed on the Seed of Life in Song Jian’s palm, speaking softly, “Only in worlds where the Tree of Life exists can they exist eternally…”

Song Jian stood quietly in place, waiting for the white-furred monkey man to explain to the other beings of the Legendary Realm what the Tree of Life was and what functions it had.

“Master Monkey, are you saying that if our world has a Tree of Life, it can evolve continuously and become a complete grand world?” the emerald giant python asked with a face full of surprise.

“I can only say there’s a chance. After all, growing into a grand world is extremely difficult, but as long as the world we live in can grow into a minor grand world, it can exist eternally, and we will not die because of a sudden collapse of the world one day,” the white-furred monkey man said with a laugh.

“That’s wonderful!” All the beings of the Legendary Realm cheered and leaped for joy.

Being in the game world, Song Jian could never understand the despair of the beings in the fragmented universe; the feeling that no matter how strong you are, life and death are not under your control, that at any time, in any place, you might die because the piece of heaven and earth you’re in suddenly collapses. After all, they are in an extremely tiny fragmented universe!

“You, you’re really willing to plant the Tree of Life here?” the white-furred monkey man asked excitedly.

“Of course, as long as you’re willing!” Song Jian said with a smile, knowing from the expressions of these beings of the Legendary Realm that the matter was almost certainly settled.

Surrounded by a group of beings from the Legendary Realm, Song Jian went to the place where he had landed three months ago. Although some time had passed, he could still see the ancient trees that had been knocked down, the charred stumps, and the almost completely barren ground around them.

In the emerald green forest, this place looked like a scar, quite unsightly.

Song Jian walked to the center of this scorched earth, casually dug a hole, buried the Seed of Life, and after a short wait, he could feel the Seed of Life crack open, its fine roots striving to burrow into the soil.

In no time at all, the Tree of Life’s root system enveloped an area of several tens of meters. Moreover, a thick main root kept probing downwards as if vowing to penetrate the whole planet.

After a while, the beings of the Life Forest still hadn’t seen the Seed of Life germinate and emerge from the ground, and they started to panic and whispered among themselves, as they had not imprinted their own breath on the Seed of Life and couldn’t sense that it had already begun to take root and sprout.

“Master Monkey, what is…” a creature asked softly.

The white-furred monkey man waved his hand. He could sense that this piece of burnt earth had undergone some subtle changes. However, as for the Seed of Life, the white-furred monkey man was always unable to detect its growth. In his perception, the location of the Seed of Life seemed like a black hole, constantly devouring everything around it, even swallowing a small part of his perceivable consciousness when it approached.

“Be patient and wait,” the white-furred monkey man said softly.

…

After waiting for more than an hour, Song Jian finally felt that the roots of the Seed of Life seemed to have extended into a space of void. A smile appeared on his lips.

If the roots of the Seed of Life touched the void, it meant that it could now draw nutrients from the void on its own. At this point, the Tree of Life could be considered successfully planted!

“Phew, it’s a success!” Song Jian said with a laugh.

The emerald giant python glanced at the charred soil where nothing was visible, and several question marks immediately appeared on its forehead.

Spider creature: “???”

Elf Los: “???”

White-furred ape-man: “???”

Other creatures: “???”

…

Just as everyone was bewildered, the ground suddenly started shaking as if an earthquake had struck, and then, a “python” burst forth from the soil, growing towards the sky at an astonishing speed.

Watching the Seed of Life soar into the heavens like a Giant Dragon, everyone’s faces showed a look of surprise, they stared dumbfounded at the rapidly growing Seed of Life!

While ascending, the Seed of Life became thicker and stronger, and in a short while, it had turned into a massive tree with a diameter exceeding a hundred meters!

Rustle rustle rustle~
The ancient trees nearby also made a joyous sound, as if celebrating the arrival of a king, and at the same time, a fresh fragrant scent filled the air. Song Jian knew that this was the spirit energy released by the Seed of Life while growing. As the Tree of Life grew, this realm would gradually be nourished by the spirit energy, advancing to the next level!

The growth of the Seed of Life lasted for an entire fifteen minutes before it slowly came to a halt, then the whole Tree of Life started to appear insubstantial, flickering in and out of existence like a phantom!

From then on, although the Tree of Life was rooted in this fragment universe, in actuality it had merged into the void, drawing nutrients from it for self-growth, unharmed by anyone.

“Spirit energy, this is spirit energy, we’ve succeeded, this realm is saved, we are saved!” The white-furred ape-man roared excitedly, pounding his chest vigorously with his hands.

Other creatures also cheered and jumped for joy, their faces full of excitement. Their gazes towards Song Jian became even more friendly.

“Thank you, human, from now on, you’re a friend of the Life Forest. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask, and we will do our utmost to fulfill them!” The white-furred ape-man seemed to have grown younger as well, bowing to Song Jian and saying.

Song Jian waved his hand and smiled, “I just wanted to make up for my previous mistakes. I’m also very happy that the Tree of Life can take root and sprout here, to save this realm!”

The Tree of Life, now imprinted with his aura, was like an extension of himself. Once the Tree of Life grew for a while more, and when it reached maturity, Song Jian would be able to use it to position this fragment universe and enter here at any time, just like in the real world. Once the Tree of Life in the real world grew, he would be able to return to the real world from the game world whenever he wanted!

“Paso Fruit Tree, Posuo Fruit, Power of Law, all of you belong to me!” Song Jian looked up towards the Silent Stone Forest, knowing he could return to this fragment universe at any moment, thus the Paso Fruit Tree within the Silent Stone Forest would eventually be his for the taking.

One must know, possessing a Paso Fruit Tree is tantamount to having an endless supply of the Power of Law, as each Posuo Fruit contained randomly assorted powers. This means, in the near future, Song Jian would even be able to sell Posuo Fruits harboring various Powers of Law!

At this thought, Song Jian’s heart suddenly heated up, even a Legendary Realm powerhouse couldn’t possess such wealth!

Just as Song Jian was in high spirits, a system prompt suddenly appeared in front of him!

System: The Doomsday Cruise Journey is about to end. Please contribute enough treasures as fare. If the value of the treasures contributed isn’t enough for the fare, you will remain in this temporal node forever!
