Chapter 180

It fell directly into this valley.

It was only about a hundred meters from the lake.

Just planted.

Immediately—

Threads of deep, dark energy.

Swept in from all directions.

Even.

It stirred up a gust of wind tinged with faint black.

Branches and leaves swayed.

Dense roots plunged deep into the earth below.

Li Yue could see clearly.

Beneath the entire valley.

Including the underground of the two great mountains nearby.

In just a brief moment.

Were covered by the roots of this 'Black Moon Elf Mother Tree'.

Thread by thread.

Strand by strand of dark energy.

Was also absorbed in vast quantities by the roots from beneath the ground!

But—

For the 'Black Moon Elf Mother Tree'.

It was still far, far too little.

To nurture a single Black Moon Elf.

Was simply a matter of who knows what year or month.

Hoo—

Li Yue gently sent forth ten thousand units of pure faith power.

But—

The 'Black Moon Elf Mother Tree' did not absorb it.

"It won't even take pure faith power?"

Li Yue frowned slightly.

Then.

He tested the Thunder Divine Power and the Hailstorm Divine Power.

The result—

The 'Black Moon Elf Mother Tree' rejected them all.

"It seems."

"I can only find a way to seek out or purchase a large quantity of dark energy crystals."

He muttered to himself.

Any energy, when its concentration reaches a certain level, will crystallize.

However.

Such places are very rare.

Energy crystals, therefore, are also very rare and precious.

But no matter how precious.

800

They could still be found in the City of Gods.

Just as he was about to head to the City of Gods.

Suddenly—

He received a request from the Flame Goddess Joyce for an audience.

"Agreed."

He shifted his thought.

Immediately—

Not far in front of him.

Clad in crimson battle armor.

Wielding a great sword of fiery red.

A goddess with a head of flowing crimson hair slowly appeared and bowed respectfully:

"Joyce, paying respects to the Divine Lord."

She was secretly startled in her heart.

It had only been half a year since they last met.

This Divine Lord's aura had become even more terrifying.

Even merely standing before him.

It gave her a strong sense of pressure.

"You have come to see me; have you thoroughly investigated all the god tribes within a three-thousand-kilometer radius?"

Li Yue said indifferently.

"Lord of Gods, please look."

Joyce raised his hand lightly.

A torrent of flame swept out.

It slowly coalesced in the air into a map of mountains and rivers.

On the map,

the city at the very center was Gewush City.

And four hundred seventy kilometers to the east lay another small city.

Clearly,

that was where Joyce's believers were located.

And besides that—

on the map,

there were nine tribes of various sizes.

These tribes varied in size.

The smallest,

was estimated to have only two or three hundred believers.

The deity behind them was most likely just an ordinary demigod or a First-Transmigration demigod.

The largest,

did not exceed three thousand believers.

"Lord of Gods, within a range of three thousand kilometers, the strongest is this one."

Joyce pointed to the tribe with nearly three thousand believers and said:

"The deity behind this tribe is known as the God of Strength."

"The believers are all Dragonkin, belonging to the medium lower-tier creatures; upon reaching adulthood, they possess Rank 2 strength."

Lower-tier creatures.

According to differences in strength after reaching adulthood,

the gods have made more detailed classifications.

Half-orcs, humans, gray dwarves, rat-men, and so on

are the lowest among the lower-tier creatures; upon reaching adulthood, they can only possess Rank 1 strength.

That is, the level of ordinary people.

And such as the silver centaur.
