Chapter 1364 The Fire of Life

Chapter 1364 - The Flame of Life

"what's the situation?"

Chen Fei immediately noticed the abnormality in his body. He quickly realized that the spiritual energy shared by the "Tree of Life" had become somewhat drowsy.

Weariness?

Plants don't sleep, and the "Tree of Life" has no wisdom or soul, so where does this weariness come from? Something must be about to happen!

Chen Fei, who was practically one with the "Tree of Life," immediately understood the source of his drowsiness.

After devouring massive amounts of biological resources, the "Tree of Life" was not overwhelmed; instead, having accumulated sufficient resources, it began to leap to a higher level of life form.

The “Zagali” can all rise through the ranks, from soldiers to generals, then to kings and emperors, and above that are gods and spirits. The “nest” that originated from individuals of the “Zagali” race more than 100,000 years ago naturally also possessed the possibility of qualitative changes in life based on class.

However, the "Sagali" have always treated "nests" as tools. Rather than using them, it's more like exploiting them. As long as there is a little bit of accumulation, it is quickly used to breed all kinds of creatures, or for strategic needs, it is forced into a dormant state. There is simply no way to accumulate enough biological resources and opportunities for advancement.

The "Zagali" civilization would not waste its precious biological resources on these soulless "breeding nests." As of now, the "breeding nests" are sufficient for its needs, and there is no need for any flashy but impractical class advancement. The biotechnology civilization's meticulous management of resources far surpasses that of the industrial technology civilization.

"Nestling" McNee did not set any restrictions on the "Tree of Life," and still retained the direction and method of advancement.

Now, the "Tree of Life" in the "Boundary Pearl" life space has finally reached a critical point due to the strong feeding by the "Sagarli" civilization. The huge canopy, trunk, and countless branches, which are as big as mountains, have begun to undergo earth-shattering changes, so much so that some functions have been affected. When it was transmitted to Chen Fei, it turned into a strange feeling of drowsiness.

how long it takes?

The moment the question arose in my mind, the answer appeared on its own.

The basis for the "Tree of Life" sharing spiritual power with Chen Fei is that they share the same soul. External differences, whether in human form or giant tree form, are not important. All the information has already been imprinted in Chen Fei's soul.

"Advancement!"

Chen Fei confirmed it both in his mind and aloud.

Fortunately, this timeframe wasn't an indefinite period, which he could easily afford, and he was also very much looking forward to the benefits that the "Tree of Life" would bring after its advancement.

"Advancement? Advancement to what rank? Are you going to advance, 'newbie'? Aren't you a superhuman?"

Hearing Chen Fei's self-talk in the cockpit of the "Tactical Jet", the female juvenile gold dragon Yilan, who had evolved into the form of the tactical jet, was completely confused.

"It wasn't me, it was that big tree."

Chen Fei offered an explanation.

If I don't explain it clearly, Yilan will definitely keep asking questions.

"A tree? How does a tree advance in rank? Is it a magical beast?"

As expected of the outstanding student, Yilan loves to get to the bottom of things.

"It's hard to say, but things are about to change, and very soon."

Chen Fei had no experience with this, only knowing that once the advancement of the "Tree of Life" was initiated, it would immediately complete the overall life evolution in a short period of time, like a wildfire spreading.

Just then, an invisible wave swept in from afar, instantly passing over all the tactical jets, as well as the "Lord of the Sky" trapped in the middle and the divine seed "Zagari" Krato attached to the former.

The "Lord of the Azure Sky" paused, looking in surprise and uncertainty towards the source of the strange fluctuation.

The massive, mountain-like canopy visibly transformed from lush green to withered yellow, and the occasional creaking and groaning under its weight quickly turned into a continuous crackling sound as large, small, thick, and thin branches broke off from the canopy along with the withered leaves, fluttering and scattering intensifying the devastation.

Startled, the birds hiding in the treetops took flight, forming a huge black cloud that hovered in the sky, chirping and twittering.

In just over ten breaths, a towering tree full of vitality reached the end of its life. The sudden decay did not stop. The thick trunk and the numerous supporting branches disintegrated into countless fragments, which, along with the withered branches and leaves, quickly covered the ground in a thick layer, covering an area of ​​more than ten kilometers, and eventually formed a small hill devoid of any life.

Hundreds of "star gates," millions of combat robots, female Chu people, and tens of thousands of "escaped" biological combat weapons were all buried under the debris of this sudden large-scale disintegration.

The countless biological combat weapons that hadn't been devoured by the "Tree of Life" and the biological space motherships that were still continuously intruding into the life space were not unharmed. They suddenly and without warning turned into countless fragments of flesh and blood, flying in all directions like a volcanic eruption. The furthest ones even swept past the battlefield where Chen Fei and the "Lord of the Sky" were fighting, falling more than 500 kilometers away from where the "Tree of Life" was originally located. Within a radius of 500 kilometers, it was as if a rain of flesh and blood had fallen.

The "halo" hovering in mid-air and the more than ten airship combat groups were unharmed, but the two sides did not engage in combat, but maintained a distance and silence.

In reality, the target of the airship combat cluster's vigilance was not the "Halo" and the adult gold-type dragons inside, but another divine species, "Zagali," or even a spirit species, that might intrude into the "Boundary Bead" life space at any time.

However, the adult gold dragons inside the "Halo" do not seem to have any intention of breaking away to compete with the battleship cluster. They seem to have long been accustomed to the lifestyle inside the "Halo" and may feel a little uncomfortable after leaving the "Halo".

There may be another reason why the gold dragons are so docile and quiet.

The finches, suddenly deprived of their habitat, are circling in the sky with other bird species, chirping and chattering loudly.

"A little bird is invincible if it has less than 10,000, but once it reaches 10,000, it is unbeatable." This was originally just a joke, but now it has become a real deterrent.

When more than 300,000 Pure Light Sparrows occupied the sky, no dragon dared to show itself rashly despite the forbidden light spell. Perhaps the Pure Light Sparrows would vent their anger at losing their habitat directly on these unfortunate gold dragons.

The image of a fully grown golden dragon being blasted to smithereens by a flock of pure-light sparrows is still circulating online and has a considerable number of views. How could these ferocious, killing dragons not have seen it? A fully grown golden dragon may be a little crazy, but it is definitely not stupid.

The Pure Light Sparrows living in the "Boundary Pearl" life space are not comparable to those low-level Pure Light Sparrows that once jointly launched the Great Forbidden Spell of Light. These more than 300,000 Pure Light Sparrows seem to have returned to the most glorious moment of the magical beast bloodline. Mid-level human-rank birds can be seen everywhere. As long as they are adult Pure Light Sparrows, they start at the third level of human-rank. Even without launching the Great Forbidden Spell, just using the power of the group to launch regular spells is enough to make any dragon suffer.

The "Tree of Life" seemed to have ended itself in some way. The pile of wreckage, like a hill, did not fall silent. Instead, one after another, red, white and blue flames appeared out of nowhere, spreading over an area of ​​more than ten kilometers. Their numbers quickly increased, forming a prairie fire.

The debris, broken apart from the tree trunk and countless branches, acted as fuel, causing the fire to intensify rapidly. A massive pillar of fire shot into the sky, wreathed in countless red, white, and blue flames, rising thousands of meters high and continuing to rise, directly approaching the enormous sphere of light and the silver "halo" with a diameter of twenty kilometers, which were about a hundred kilometers above the ground. Even the airship battle group and flocks of birds hovering in mid-air had to retreat to avoid being affected by this sudden pillar of fire. Even optical sensors and infrared thermal imaging detection modules could not determine the exact temperature of this massive three-colored pillar of fire with a diameter of more than ten kilometers.

However, outside the pillar of fire, not a trace of heat could be felt, and not even a tiny bit of heat radiation was transmitted. Otherwise, the birds circling in the sky would not have had a chance to escape at the moment the pillar of fire shot into the sky and would have turned into ashes in an instant.
