Hyakumei,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he added Storm Elementals, Shadowsteel Golems, Multi-Armed Giants, and others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But honestly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the useful skills he’d drawn were few.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Luo De realize that for his current stage, spirit warriors were about quality, not quantity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single excellent spiritual warrior could surpass the sum of others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he ascended this skill, without good spirit warriors to forge, it would be of little use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, then let’s go with 【Tree’s Blessing】.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This skill had provided Luo De, early on when his spiritual energy was low, with exceptional recovery speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it had spawned 【Growth Spirit】.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It also allowed 【Dragon Scale Art】 to manifest differently across various trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Emerald Tree’s 【Spatial Tree Form】 was a derivative of 【Tree’s Blessing】.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De did not hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clicked the +

Nature】.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The original details of 【Tree’s Blessing】 remained unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But three new lines appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sprout Phase”: Accelerate plant iteration and evolution within a ten-kilometer radius, spawning spiritual species.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Coexistence Phase”: Fuse your spiritual veins with the entire forest, sharing all tree

could switch between them at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, 【Growth Spirit】 also gained two new skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tree Pattern Enlightenment”: Carve tree patterns onto surfaces to imbue them with specific properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Spiritual Symbiosis”: Actively share one skill or buff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a new skill appeared on the panel: 【Thousand Trees Domain】.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to activate matrix effects by combining different trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was very satisfied with this ascension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two letters took a long time to write.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And several sheets of paper were ruined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when Luo De was finally satisfied did Pan Ni’s legs give out, clutching the table to avoid falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She squatted on the ground, her feet trembling violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clung to Luo De’s waist with one arm, refusing to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reluctantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De could only bring her back to Henry Farm to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself went to Shi Ying Town to have the elderly gentleman Humbert introduce a Hobbit to deliver the letter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humbert’s efficiency was swift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately sent a knight to find someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De was informed that the hired Hobbit messenger had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Hobbit had not come merely to pick up the letter, but also to deliver one to Luo De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One
