Buying Off
"Where is this?" As soon as he entered, the Spirit Emperor's gaze was drawn to the towering Tree of Life, and he was deeply shocked.
Can this thing still be called a tree? It's more like the World Tree!
The tallest Dao Tree in her world is only a few dozen kilometers high, right? I originally thought that was already quite tall.
But suddenly seeing trees thousands of miles tall still stunned her; her brain almost crashed.
"My world," Richard said casually.
"Your world is so big. You already have such a big world, why do you still want to see my Cat World?" the Cang Mao asked, puzzled.
"If such a big world were used to grow Fish-Head Monster, how many Fish-Head Monster would we have?" it muttered to itself.
"But the connection between my world and myself is not strong enough to amplify my strength."
Richard spoke of the shortcomings of the Small World. This was originally just Small World that had developed from a Pupil Technique Space.
That eye technique is almost obsolete for him now.
But he had nurtured this Small World Small World for so long and at such a great cost, and he didn't want it to be eliminated by him one day.
"I see." Cang Mao nodded, as if she had already understood.
But in reality, it doesn't understand at all whether it can amplify its own strength or not. Does its Cat World amplify its strength? It doesn't know, cats don't fight.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the beach and see if you see any fish you want to eat."
As Richard spoke, he led the Cang Mao and the Spirit Emperor to the sea.
"Okay, okay, this is good, this is not bad either." After Cang Mao came over, he started scooping up fish from the sea.
It scooped up all sorts of Magic Beast and Soul Beast.
Richard had collected some Magic Beast and Soul Beast in both his own world and the Douluo World to bring into his own Small World.
After hundreds of years of reproduction, there are now quite a few Magic Beast and Soul Beast in the sea.
He even had the bloodlines of Classic of Mountains and Seas Beast from the Zhu Xian World that he collected, and he used his own Creation Method to create these Classic of Mountains and Seas Beast by hand.
It can be said that, apart from the absence of humans, the Small World today is not lacking in intelligent life.
High-level Soul Beast and Magic Beast possess considerable intelligence.
There are also many Saint Domain Magical Beast, and now it is ruled by Divine Beast, with the Life Divine Clone also residing in this Small World.
It can be said that the ecosystem of this Small World has begun to take shape.
As the Cang Mao continued its scooping, the commotion grew louder and louder, attracting the nearby Demon Soul Great White Shark Tribe.
While the group's leader, Wang Xiao Bai, wasn't paying attention, a mischievous Demon Soul Great White Shark swam towards them.
With lightning speed, the Cang Mao scooped up the Demon Soul Great White Shark.
Only then did Xiao Bai finally notice what was happening, and saw that some of his tribesmen had been captured.
Can Xiao Bai, the king of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, just stand by and watch it take away its own kind?
If Richard hadn't been right next to it, Xiao Bai would have almost attacked it.
"Hey, Cang Mao, this one won't do. This is one of my men." Richard said as he put the Demon Soul Great White Shark that Cang Mao had scooped up back down.
Xiao Bai had promised to be his subordinate, so naturally he would protect his subordinate.
"Alright then." The Cang Mao seemed a little reluctant; the fish looked delicious.
Xiao Bai quickly led his family away from this area of water. If they couldn't afford to mess with them, couldn't they at least avoid them?
"You actually have such weak subordinates?" the Spirit Emperor asked in surprise.
These Demon Soul Great White Shark were pitifully weak in her eyes; even the king of that clan couldn't compare to a martial artist at the False God Realm.
What's the point of having subordinates like that?
"Hey, I just picked them up casually. I used to think they'd be useful for clearing out mobs, but my strength increased so quickly that I don't need them anymore."
Since we've already collected them, we can't just throw them away, so we'll just put them in their Small World and let them develop on their own."
Richard never expected that he would no longer need these Demon Soul Great White Shark so soon. Now that he no longer possesses God Level strength, he can't even use them as assistants.
Therefore, their current role is to contribute to the biodiversity of the Small World.
These guys usually live quite comfortably in the ocean of the Small World.
As long as you don't provoke those two mythical marine Divine Beast, you have no natural enemies.
In addition, Richard also bestowed upon him the magical heritage of his own world. Given Xiao Bai's intelligence, he is capable of following the path of Mage. Furthermore, he has a high Water Element and good Divine Power.
He's almost become a Saint Domain Mage now.
"Alright, I've caught enough." The Cang Mao had almost filled its entire Cat World before it stopped.
"Okay, now you agree to let me into your Cat World, right?" Richard teased.
"No problem, go ahead." Cang Mao said, satisfied and unconcerned.
If I had told them there were so many delicious fish, they would have agreed. Now look what's happened.
These fish are certainly not as strong Rank Nine or even True God Realm in the Forbidden Sea that it has eaten, and their energy is definitely not as abundant.
But this is a fish from another world; it hasn't tasted it before, so it should really try it out to see what it tastes like.
While the Cang Mao was busy catching fish, the Spirit Emperor curiously observed this world.
She even used her divine sense to probe the outside world.
They soon discovered that this world was unexpectedly large. They had been mentally prepared when they saw the enormous Tree of Life, knowing that this was a super-giant space.
But after exploring, she discovered that this could be considered a complete world.
Although these emperors can create Small World, they are generally only a few hundred or a thousand kilometers in radius. Strictly speaking, they are just Small Space or demi-planes, far from being complete worlds.
But Richard, this world is already quite perfect.
Now she believed Richard was there to see the Cat World of the Cang Mao World Origin. If such a vast world could amplify Richard's strength with its own essence, she couldn't imagine how much Richard, already ridiculously strong, could be amplified.
Richard allowed her to investigate.
The Life Divine Clone Tree of Life in the distance greeted her with its divine sense.
Only then did the Spirit Emperor realize that it seemed to be Richard's Clone? Although the fluctuations of his divine sense were somewhat different, his face was the same.
Most importantly, that person's spiritual energy fluctuations were far stronger than hers; she wouldn't have noticed them if they hadn't greeted her first.
Even that giant tree, which resembled the World Tree, possessed sentience? It touched her with a friendly touch of divine sense.
Although judging from its consciousness, it is still very immature, seemingly having only recently developed sentience.
But judging from its towering height of thousands of miles, it was definitely not simple, and it gave her a strong sense of oppression.
In addition, when she scanned with her divine sense, she seemed to hear strong fluctuations of divine sense coming from many directions. The feeling was not much weaker than her own, and some were even stronger.
In Richard's world, the number of top-tier experts seems to be no less than the number in their entire world?
She couldn't help but wonder if Richard was demonstrating his power to her.
Since this is Richard's private world, these experts are naturally considered part of his influence. Even if they are not his subordinates, they must have a close relationship with him.
Whether it was true or not, only Richard knew the answer.
After collecting enough fish, the Cang Mao looked at the enormous Tree of Life. Such a big tree must have delicious juice.
It looked at Richard.
Do you have any good juice here? I haven't had any good juice in ages.
As he spoke, he kept glancing at the Tree of Life.
Richard certainly understood what it meant by "juice".
Plant life in their world can produce a certain Life Essence Liquid essence, which is a top-level strategic resource containing abundant energy for martial artists. It can be used to quickly heal injuries, restore blood and Divine Power, and break through realm bottlenecks.
But for Cang Mao, it was just a delicious drink.
Don't let Cang Mao's appearance fool you; it may look like a harmless orange tabby.
But in reality, this guy is quite strong. His Divine Power is comparable to that of Heavenly King in this world, and his physical body is almost comparable to that of Title True God or even Saint.
In terms of cultivation level, it's only the Rank Nine.
However, it doesn't follow the Origin Dao at all, but the World Dao. Once it undergoes a qualitative change, this guy can leap to be comparable to Heavenly King who Break Seven or Break Eight. If it undergoes two more qualitative changes, it can directly Break Nine an Emperor.
Don't let his constant eating, drinking, and having fun fool you; he's actually been laying a solid foundation for himself without even realizing it.
The body is on the verge of a qualitative change, and so is the Dao.
Therefore, in the later part of the original work, it was able to bear the Seed energy and directly use its own Great Dao to support the entire High Martial World, transforming it into the Yang Realm.
You can't judge a cat by its appearance.
The Cang Mao's hostility was too obvious. As if sensing that this guy had ill intentions, a thin Xi Zhi stretched out from the void, hoisted the Cang Mao up, and swung it around.
The Cang Mao's massive body swayed up and down with the Xi Zhi, its fat trembling.
"Meow, put me down! I don't want any more drinks!" the Cang Mao cried out.
At the same time, it stretched out its claws, trying to break the Xi Zhi, but the seemingly delicate Xi Zhi seemed to be harder than divine iron. The Cang Mao's claws even sparked when they touched it, but it still couldn't break the Xi Zhi.
It hadn't expected that the creature could hear its voice from such a distance.
The Cang Mao's claws are no ordinary weapon; with its formidable power, it could easily kill a True God, Peak Level expert, yet it could do nothing against this thin Xi Zhi.
"Serves you right, you stupid cat! All you ever do is beg for food. Now you know how dangerous things are!" The Spirit Emperor couldn't bear to look at it. This stupid cat! This tree is so big; it's obviously extraordinary. How dare it provoke it?
Thankfully, the other party meant no harm; otherwise, they wouldn't have just hung it up and swung it around.
In no time, the Xi Zhi had knocked the Cang Mao unconscious.
"Alright, Xiao Yao, put it down now," Richard said with a smile.
The Tree of Life grew increasingly intelligent, from having only simple intelligence at the beginning to now being comparable to a human child. Richard named it Mu Yao, meaning a divine tree transformed into a precious gem, a fairy embryo among plants.
It is somewhat like the Martial Soul of the master Luo Sanpao. It could exist independently from the beginning and had simple intelligence. It only developed its current intelligence after multiple rounds of evolution.
Furthermore, as their level of evolution increases, their intelligence will also grow infinitely until it becomes comparable to that of a normal human.
Initially, the Tree of Life had no gender; it chose to be female. That's why it has this female name now.
Anyway, Xiao Yao really likes this name.
"Father, this is a bad guy, hit it!" A little girl's voice rang in their ears.
"Alright, it won't dare to mess with you anymore. Let it go; they are my guests," Richard advised softly.
"Alright, Xiao Yao will listen to her father." Xi Zhi put the Cang Mao down.
As soon as the Cang Mao was put down, its legs trembled, and it staggered away from the Xi Zhi, hiding behind Richard. It was terrified of the creature.
Its personality is clearly one of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Now that the Tree of Life has proven itself to be not to be trifled with, it dares not provoke it any further.
