The Withered Ancient Tree. Fourth Trial: Revival of the Tree of Life. Bi Ji: Let's Discuss Terms.
As Tang Si approached the withered tree, countless mosquitoes were startled into flight.
"Where is there even the slightest sign of life?"
Tang Si couldn't help but have doubts, but a moment later... when Tang Si used his Soul Power to sense the tree stump, a chilling intuition suddenly surged into his heart!
It was a heart-wrenching feeling of life withering away and fading away!
"Gulp~~" Tang Si's forehead was covered in a layer of cold sweat.
[Goddess of Life's Third Trial: Find the Tree of Life, Completed. Reward: Life Affinity increased to 30%, One-Level Soul Power Increase.]
[Completed the Third Trial of the Nine Trials of Destruction, reward: Destruction Affinity increased to 30%.]
at the same time!
In Different World, Yue Guan stared at the tree stump before him, and then heard Tang Si complete the third card of the Goddess of Life in the sky. He exclaimed in surprise, "That's it! This is the Tree of Life!"
After saying that, Yue Guan looked up at the sky and carefully compared the two dead tree stumps. His face immediately lit up with joy.
Demon Bear Douluo asked, "What should we do next? Should we just take him back?"
"Well... how about we wait a little longer?" Spirit Kite Douluo suggested.
Yue Guan pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's wait and see what Tang Si does first, and then we'll talk about other things. We haven't found anyone else along the way, so it seems that Di Tian and the others don't intend to make a move."
As long as Di Tian and his group don't make a move, who in the entire Douluo Continent can rival their Spirit Hall Empire?
Sea God Island, Lake of Life, the Far North —surely there's some super power hidden in the Douluo Continent that even Tang Si doesn't know about?
On the sky.
Tang Si felt a slight sense of doubt: [Why is the Tree of Life just a withered stump? All life has ceased...]
"Tang Si, judging from your reaction, this tree stump must be the Tree of Life, right?"
Bi Ji's voice was clear and melodious, like the voice of a gentle and unassuming older sister.
"Um."
Tang Si nodded, hesitated for a moment, and murmured, "Although I don't know exactly what happened, I believe the Goddess of Life didn't send me to find the Tree of Life just for fun! There must be something else... Let's begin the Fourth Trial!"
[The Fourth Trial of the Goddess of Life Begins: The Revival of the Tree of Life.]
The Fourth Trial was very simple, and there was no time limit.
"The Revival of the Tree of Life?"
In the Different World, Spirit Kite Douluo and the others, upon hearing the contents of the Divine Trial, helplessly shrugged. "Well, let's just take the Tree of Life and go straight back."
"That's true... We don't have the ability to revive the Tree of Life."
Although they were eager to see what method Tang Si would use to revive the withered Tree of Life, they knew they couldn't replicate the process. It was better to take the withered tree stump back now to avoid any unforeseen complications.
On the sky.
Bi Ji frowned and asked, "The Fourth Trial from the God of Life? Has the God of Life given any further instructions?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Si shook his head and said, "Not yet... I'm still completely baffled. The Fourth Trial is to revive the Tree of Life, but... with my life perception, I can clearly sense that the Tree of Life has no vitality whatsoever; it's a completely lifeless thing!"
"Completely inanimate?"
Bi Ji also came forward to sense the life force within the tree stump, but finally shook her head and said, "I couldn't sense any Life Force either."
Upon hearing this, Tang Si also fell silent, completely bewildered, muttering to himself, "What should I do? I have no clue what to do."
Beside her, Bi Ji frowned, pondering to herself: [I've led him to the Tree of Life... even though it's just a stump, it's still the Tree of Life. My mission is complete, right? And what exactly does Di Tian mean...?]
Both were preoccupied with their own thoughts. Bi Ji was speculating about this and that, while Tang Si was constantly pondering how he could revive the Tree of Life.
[What exactly happened to cause the Tree of Life to become like this? If I remember correctly, the Goddess of Life's artifact was a Tree of Life...]
Tang Si frowned, thinking to himself: [Does reviving the Tree of Life before me require figuring out how it became like this? Or rather, figuring out its origin? The Tree of Life of life, Super Divine Artifact of the God King of Life, possesses a portion of the Creator God's authority... but that shouldn't have much to do with an ordinary Tree of Life, right?]
At this very moment.
The people in the Different World were already numb!
The term "Super Divine Artifact" is one thing, but as the God King of Life, it's reasonable for him to possess a powerful artifact.
But the weight contained in the three words "[Creator God]" is simply too terrifying!
Creator God?
Deity created the world?
Could it be that the world they inhabit, with its Deity, humans, Soul Beast, continents, oceans, and all things, was created by a creator god?
Danmu: [Feng Xiaotian: Next time someone gets a chance to ask a question, please ask what the Creator God is, thank you.]
[Yan: Agreed.]
On the sky.
Tang Si was unaware that his thoughts had triggered unwarranted speculation in many people, and was still pondering how to complete the task as soon as possible.
[The Goddess of Life cannot possibly grant me an impossible task. So, what should I do? And what means do I possess to revive a withered tree devoid of life?]
Tang Si considered all his options: was it the Blue Silver Emperor's vitality and perception of life, or the 30% affinity with life elements?
Ultimately, Tang Si turned his attention to the all-powerful Popularity Points.
[Does this mean I have to use Popularity Points...? If I really have to use Popularity Points to revive the Tree of Life, doesn't that mean my system and all my actions are under the watchful eye of the Goddess of Life?]
Tang Si looked up at the sky, muttering to himself, "[The feeling of having your secrets spied on... that's not a pleasant experience at all.]"
Little did they know, nearly 300 million humans and hundreds of millions of intelligent Soul Beast in the Different World were all watching Tang Si. In front of them, Tang Si had no secrets!
There must be other ways!
During the live stream, Tang Si looked up at the sky for a long, long time, and finally decided to temporarily give up using the Popularity Points. He planned to wait and see, and if there was really no other way, then it wouldn't be too late to use the Popularity Points.
"Senior Bi Ji."
Bi Ji looked at Tang Si and pondered, "Do you still want me to sacrifice myself?"
"Um."
Tang Si felt there was nothing to hide and said frankly, "My Blue Silver Emperor needs Life Attribute Soul Ring, and I can also help you go to the Divine Realm..."
Bi Ji shook her head and said, "Not enough."
"Not enough?"
Tang Si was overjoyed. Since Bi Ji wanted to set conditions, it meant that they could talk!
If talks are possible, then sacrifices are possible.
"Senior Bi Ji, please feel free to state your conditions. As long as they are reasonable and within my capabilities, I will go through fire and water for you!"
This scene was the envy of everyone in the Different World.
Especially Tang San, who was still undergoing the Divine Trial, was screaming and shouting in his heart: [Why wasn't I the one who obtained the 600,000-year Soul Ring? Why! Why!]
