Chapter 103: Celestial Tree
‘Project Thunder God! One might become Thor when the ability development reaches the final stage!’
Shaking his head, Lin Yao calmed his wandering mind and looked at the last item, which was the Angel Gem that he had been looking forward to the most.
The Angel Gem was not a white orb but a golden one.
Lin Yao merely looked at it but did not touch it. However, he could already feel a sense of sacredness permeating his body and mind.
If a devout believer of a monotheistic religion saw this orb, they would definitely kneel down and worship it as a sacred item. Of course, Lin Yao would not do so. However, he was also very happy. The moment he felt the aura of the Angel Gem, his Tree of Light began to tremble in his Sea of Consciousness. Lin Yao knew that he was right. The Angel Gem could indeed make up for the shortcomings of the Tree of Light.
Upon reaching for the Angel Gem, Lin Yao immediately closed his eyes and absorbed the energy in the Angel Gem.
Nothing unexpected happened. It was an unowned energy crystallization, so the system could indeed absorb it. Soon, the golden gem in Lin Yao’s hand disappeared, and a golden light cluster crossed the sky like the sun, blooming brilliantly in his Sea of Cconsciousness.
The Tree of Light danced happily after being illuminated by the golden light. In the meantime, its growth rate was rapidly increasing.
However, after looking at it for a while, Lin Yao shook his head.
‘This method of advancing through illumination is too slow.’
With this thought in mind, Lin Yao tried to control the Sea of Consciousness and pushed the golden sun in the sky toward the Tree of Light. Soon, the golden sun across the sky was pulled downward by Lin Yao and fell on the Tree of Light. It was as if the Tree of Light had borne a huge fruit. However, the fruit was too large. In fact, it was larger than the Tree of Light.
Lin Yao could feel the vast energy in the golden sun. However, the absorption speed of the Tree of Light was as slow as drinking water speed. Lin Yao felt helpless, as he realized that it would take more than one to two days, or even one to two years, for the Tree of Light to fully absorb this golden sun. In fact, it might take more than 10 years.
Actually, this was not considered slow. Ordinary trees had a long lifespan, and the Tree of Light even more so, as it had the power of light. If there was no mishap, the Tree of Light could survive for 500 to 600 years. If it advanced to the silver or gold level, it could even survive for thousands of years.
With such a long lifespan, needing 10 years to absorb the Angel Gem was not considered slow. This was naturally not a problem.
However, Lin Yao had no time to wait.
‘I will have to consume energy value.’
When the fruit of the Tree of Light was first integrated, Lin Yao sensed that the energy value could not only be used as energy but could also be used as a fusion agent.
Such an energy was needed when the cartoon sapling was combined with the fruit. Right now, Lin Yao intended to use the energy value as a fusion agent for the Tree of Light to quickly absorb the golden sun.
Under Lin Yao’s control, a green energy ball suddenly flew out and stopped next to the golden sun, making contact with it.
When different energies made contact, they would result in terrible accidents. For example, when water and fire came into contact, they would annihilate each other.
However, the green energy ball was different. It appeared green because the energy extracted from human beings was somewhat special. Although it could only be absorbed by tree species, it also had some special abilities.
Lin Yao controlled the green energy ball to make contact with the golden sun. The golden energy of the golden sun turned the areas it made contact with green.
This green energy had the characteristic of being immediately absorbed by the tree species without any hindrance, and the effect was immediate.
The golden energy that was mixed with the green energy in turn had the same characteristic.
Lin Yao could clearly see that energy that needed years to transmit was now being injected into the Tree of Light.
The infusion of angelic energy made the Tree of Light grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. The branches spread, and the leaves grew and turned white-gold in color. The tree seemed to be very sacred, as if it contained a special power. The huge amount of leaves formed the crown of the tree, which seemed to be flourishing and thriving.
However, Lin Yao’s heart ached during the infusion of the angelic energy. Lin Yao, who could control the Sea of Consciousness, observed that one unit of green energy could neutralize 10 units of angelic energy.
‘1,000 grams, 2,000 grams, 3,000 grams… 5,000 grams. Sigh. I have worked so hard to accumulate this energy.’
Lin Yao was heartbroken. However, the consumption of a huge amount of energy had also brought great benefits to the Tree of Light. The neutralization ratio of angelic energy to green energy was 10 to one. Since he had used 5,000 grams of green energy, that meant that the Tree of Light had absorbed 50,000 points of angelic energy.
After absorbing 50,000 points of energy in one go, the Tree of Light radiated brightly, forming a golden cocoon.
‘Is this evolution? It can’t be. This is a complement to its foundation.’
The light cocoon did not last long. The main reason was that the green energy that was blended into it enabled the Tree of Light to absorb the golden energy without any hindrance. There was no need for it to evolve through slumber.
When the cocoon shattered, a towering tree appeared in front of Lin Yao. Then, the Tree of Light became extremely tall and straight with luxuriant foliage. However, Lin Yao’s attention was not on the tree itself but on the center of the canopy of the big tree. There was a golden fruit in the middle of the canopy that seemed like its crown.
Although it was the fruit of the tree, Lin Yao sensed that it was a being, an extremely sacred being.
At the same time, the legends of the trees at a higher level than the Tree of Light, which were the Celestial Tree and the Kabbalah Tree of Life, appeared in Lin Yao’s mind.
‘There is an angelic consciousness in the Celestial Tree. As for the Kabbalah Tree of Life, it contains all the mysteries in the world, and there are angels stationed there… This can’t be… Don’t tell me that the fruit is an angel?!’
Lin Yao, who was anxious, ignored the separated golden sun and the green energy ball that had shrunk by more than half its size and put all his attention on the Tree of Light.
Lin Yao was not disappointed. Soon, he saw the detailed information of the Tree of Light.
However, it was no longer called the Tree of Light now.
[Celestial Tree]
[State: Small Tree Sapling (0/100,000)]
[Level: Silver Person (King Potential)]
[Talent 1]
[Armored Body Of Light LV3: The host now has the ability to absorb sunlight (LV MAX) and store it in its cells. The host can use the stored sunlight to replace energy, physical strength, and energy consumption. At the same time, when there is an abundance of sunlight in the host’s cells, the host will obtain the talents of Light Healing (medium-level), Light Purification (medium-level), Body of Light (medium-level), and Light Adjustment (medium-level).]
[Note: The host’s sunlight absorption has reached LV MAX, which is the peak. It can absorb most of the power of the sun and obtain the Sun God Pattern (medium-level) ability.]
The Tree of Light had advanced to the Celestial Tree thanks to the angelic energy that complemented it. Although it had not been promoted to a Gold Person, it had King Potential.
Of course, potential aside, it still needed lots of resources to grow and transform into real strength. This was most obvious based on its advancement. Originally, the Tree of Light had only needed 30,000 points to reach its peak. Now, the next advancement required an energy value of 100,000 points.
Of course, although it required a lot of energy, after its transformation into a Celestial Tree, Lin Yao had gained a lot from the improvement of the source of light as well. The Armored Body Of Light had made tremendous advancement. Now that the Armored Body Of Light had reached LV3, its supplementary abilities had advanced to the medium level as well. Besides, with the advancement of sunlight absorption to LV MAX, he had also gained a sun pattern.
All these improvements were very useful. When the cells were full of energy, a low-level Body of Light could only increase Lin Yao’s physical fitness by 30%. Now that his abilities had reached the medium level, the enhancement of his physical fitness could reach a minimum of 10% and a maximum of 90%.
