Chapter 1194
The image captured on the astrological mirror was simultaneously transmitted to Ang's consciousness space through the soul network, where a group of people gathered to watch, analyze, and speculate.
The pitch-black void was empty, when suddenly, a tiny root pierced through the void and poked over from who knows where.
This root extended outward, growing longer and longer. As it extended, more tiny secondary roots grew out, and it also grew thicker and harder, finally splitting into two.
The two main roots grew and extended in the void, squeezing the spatial rift wider and wider. When it reached a certain degree, a gap opened between the two main roots, and countless strong tree people squeezed over.
These strong tree people had black-brown tree bark, layered one on top of another like scales. This bark, which had mutated according to the void environment, clearly revealed their identity—Void Tree People.
Their movements were not slow like tree people at all; after drilling out, they quickly scattered. Those layered barks stood up, just like little birds raising their feathers, capturing certain energy and information in the void.
Soon, the Void Tree People captured the pheromones drifting in the void, their whole bodies shaking, emitting a rustling sound.
The rustling sound was transmitted backward, and the tree people searched in four directions with this place as the center, soon finding those "water" fruits, all of which were floating forward intact.
One of the tree people stretched out a branch and poked a fruit. With a "pop," the entire fruit exploded, and a large amount of "water" splashed out.
This water was not ordinary water. The tree people hurriedly stretched their branches into the water, and the surface tension of the liquid immediately made it adhere to the tree people's branches, and then it was quickly absorbed by the branches.
The tree people soon felt that their whole bodies were full of power, the lignin fibers on their bodies constantly tightening, tightening, tightening, and then "ding," their bodies were covered in fresh flowers.
A stronger tree person floated over, knocked on its head with a fist, and emitted information: "Ya ya—ya—," which translated into common language meant: "You stole food, bloomed, wasted, blah blah blah..."
The tree person held its head, not daring to say anything, and obediently floated past the remaining "water" fruits toward the front.
It also couldn't understand why the Boundless Fruit would explode so easily; the Boundless Water inside could nourish all things, making the surrounding objects full of the power of the Tree God.
It liked the power of the Tree God, but not everyone liked it. Anthony, who saw this scene, immediately perceived the danger of these fruits: "Not only does the exterior carry pheromones, but these fruits are also full of pheromones. It's fortunate that they were thrown out, otherwise they would explode upon contact, and would also seep into the limbs, impossible to wash off. It's too vicious."
Negris also said with lingering fear: "Yes, what do plants need to bloom? Pheromones. That tree person got contaminated and couldn't help but bloom. The fruit must be full of rich pheromones. Getting contaminated is the end; it's equivalent to being polluted by that Tree God."
Although it is very unreasonable to use animal ethics to understand plant behavior, plant blooming is a reproductive behavior. Getting contaminated is equivalent to "getting pregnant upon contact" for animals.
However, at this moment, the "water" fruit was floating in the void, and it couldn't contaminate anything.
After searching a large area, nothing was found. The tree root that poked out from the void finally couldn't help it, extended with all its might, and pulled the main trunk out from the rift.
This was a giant tree with a diameter of one kilometer and a height of four kilometers, without a canopy, just a bare pole.
Its body size was not as huge as the Void Giant Tree seen on the Chaos side, but its flexibility was not on the same level. Looking at its movements, it didn't look like a "tree" person at all, but more like a tree "person."
After the giant tree completely poked out, it first stabilized its body, and then the roots poked in all directions, instantly poking into countless spatial rifts.
However, after it retracted its roots, its body emitted doubtful information: "None... none at all... no spray melon..."
After a while, I don't know what order it received, but the Void Giant Tree Person poked out its roots again. These roots easily penetrated the space, firmly rooting itself in this void, and then leaves slowly grew on its head.
Can you imagine what it's like for a giant tree without a canopy to grow leaves? It's just like a bald head crazily sprouting long hair, which could make people who lose hair envious to death.
After these leaves grew out, they began to shake gently, and invisible waves spread in all directions. Whether it was the nearby void or the rifts penetrated by the roots, they were all swept by these waves.
However, these waves could not be perceived through the astrological mirror, so everyone didn't understand what it was doing, and finally had to turn to Negris.
Negris naturally knew what everyone meant. If you want to know what the tree person is doing, just ask another tree. The largest tree here was right on top of Ang's head.
"Ang, ask the little sapling, what is this tree person doing?" Negris asked.
"Searching," Ang said.
Everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at Ursman.
Ursman shook his head: "I don't know much about tree people, but if the Lord says it's searching, then is it growing leaves to increase the sensitivity of perception? It searches the nearby void, or even the situation of nearby dimensions, by increasing the area of the leaves?"
Ang nodded.
"Hiss... can it search nearby dimensions?" Everyone gasped.
If it were just perceiving the nearby void, it would be no big deal; many people could do it. But if it could search nearby dimensions, that would be too terrifying.
Wouldn't that mean that places like the Origin World or the Star-Born World, if they were nearby, would all be searched out by the tree person?
"Fortunately, Ang threw it into the Boundless Great Void. If it were just thrown outside the dimensional world, wouldn't it be searched out by it?" Negris said with lingering fear.
"According to this ability, isn't the astrological mirror the only way to scout it? If it floats on the dimensional wall like a boundary-shifting airship, can it avoid its search?" Ursman asked.
No one could answer this question, and even Ang didn't know the answer. After all, the boundary-shifting airship was also a unique thing, and the little sapling hadn't tried whether it could be searched out.
Anthony also said: "This tree person is very strong. The shearing effect of the spatial rift is something that at least a Mourning Skeleton can withstand. Its roots can easily withstand it. If the tiny roots are magnified to its several-kilometer trunk, its body strength will be very outrageous."
"Ogar's Tree God sent such a powerful Void Tree Person to find the spray melon; it shouldn't be preparing to water and fertilize the spray melon, right? It wants to catch you? It seems that this Tree God is not as 'natural' as it appears," Anthony said with deep meaning.
