Chapter 1645

~8 min read 1,560 words

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si angrily cursed: "What a pile of fat, wasting things. The entire Divine Star has endless star flame power—enough to fertilize the earth flame grass."

"Oh..." Great Xiao Gu waved his hand, and the grass that had fallen to the ground seemed to grow legs, jumping up from the ground and puffing as it ran to a pile.

"Huh, plant cultivation technique? You even know this?" Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si exclaimed in surprise.

This is the innate skill of the tree herders—so many trees in a forest, how to transplant them to suitable positions? Of course, the tree herders drive them over.

Great Xiao Gu planted another batch of earth flame grass.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si asked, puzzled: "Where did your seeds come from? You were reborn completely bald—where did you get the seeds?"

Great Xiao Gu scratched his head, opened his palm to show Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si, and saw fine earth flame grass seeds continuously emerging from his palm.

"You used chaotic power to manifest seeds? How do you know this trick? You can even manifest chaos?" Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si asked, shocked.

Great Xiao Gu is essentially just a skeleton, but chaotic manifestation is an ability only Ange, as a void origin, possesses—ordinary void origins don't necessarily have it, yet this tree-planting skeleton actually learned it?

Great Xiao Gu looked toward Ange's direction and said: "King, taught."

Well, Great Xiao Gu is of the younger generation—whatever Ange knows, they know too.

But Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si immediately thought of another problem: "You little brat, won't you collect seeds from the previous batch of earth flame grass? Why use chaotic power to manifest them?"

Great Xiao Gu let out an "oh," ran to the pile of star flame grass, waved his hand, and a bunch of seeds flew out from their florets.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si grew even angrier—clearly collecting seeds from star flame grass isn't troublesome, yet this Great Xiao Gu is too lazy to do even that, directly using chaotic power to manifest seeds. This wasteful thing is exactly like its king.

Great Xiao Gu's actions reminded Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si of when he once made Ange smoke with anger—why are all these skeletons so aggravating?

Great Xiao Gu scattered the earth flame grass seeds on the trees, continued stepping down, and as the earth flame grass grew, the World Tree gained immense vitality and grew rapidly.

As the World Tree grew, Great Xiao Gu also pressed down its branches, making it grow in a flat direction, with all branches flattened onto a plane.

Great Xiao Gu continued plucking its leaves, crushing them, laying them back down to form a culture medium, then planting earth flame grass again.

Repeating this, soon a World Tree with a flat canopy grew; any uneven spots Great Xiao Gu simply flattened directly.

Leaves plucked, crushed, laid on the canopy, forming a thick culture medium layer. The medium itself was loose and had excellent insulation. Besides planting earth flame grass, Great Xiao Gu also scattered other plants this time.

After seeing this, Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si said: "These are seeds of Blazing Sun Moss—a fire-element magic plant that grows in a ring near the volcanic rim, close to magma, in high-temperature zones, able to briefly withstand magma scouring. If scoured by magma, it bursts open, releasing more seeds."

"Without magma's help, it cannot scatter seeds, though its heat tolerance is slightly lower than earth flame grass. Now Great Xiao Gu uses thick culture medium piled up, effectively lowering nearby temperature, creating a suitable environment for Blazing Sun Moss growth." Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si explained the function of Great Xiao Gu's actions.

Under the effect of the Instant Death Aura, Blazing Sun Moss quickly covered the entire platform. Their vitality allowed the World Tree to grow rapidly—it grew, and the platform grew too.

As the platform expanded, the branches could no longer support the canopy's weight, so they grew downward, touched the ground, then took root and sprouted—just like a banyan tree—one could fill the entire Divine Star.

When the canopy expanded to a certain extent, Great Xiao Gu stopped pressing it to grow flat, instead letting the edges grow upward, forming a high wall, which then closed together to form a dome, enclosing the platform within.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si slapped his waist: "Planting sphere—he's making a planting sphere. This guy is now more skilled at planting things than you."

Ange looked enviously at Great Xiao Gu and nodded.

Great Xiao Gu has been planting trees in the Dimensional World for nearly a hundred thousand years—his tree-planting ability is not inferior to Ange's. Of course, they have a soul connection; Ange understands it, so it understands.

But Ange now doesn't have so much free time to focus on planting things, and Great Xiao Gu's state makes him very envious.

The World Tree grew a planting sphere. Because the surroundings were enclosed, the temperature dropped again, allowing cultivation of more low-temperature-demanding plants inside.

Great Xiao Gu didn't plant trees right away but manifested a sprouting divine wood stake, placed it at the spatial center, then bowed his head to it.

Knock... knock... knock... Devout faith elemental power erupted on Great Xiao Gu's body—each knock made the divine wood grow one foot tall. After knocking over a dozen times, the divine wood grew into a five- to six-meter-tall giant tree.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si clicked his teeth, saying with slight toothache: "This also works? Using faith elemental power to grow divine wood?"

Great Xiao Gu's faith elemental power is extremely pure and rich, because originally it was pure prayer—praying for ten thousand years, forcibly manifesting the Yellow Mud Book.

Now using it to nurture divine wood is simply overkill—just a dozen knocks made the divine wood sprout.

The divine wood has the ability to naturally create a protected space. As it grows, the temperature inside the planting space drops again, and the air slowly begins to moisten.

Previously, earth flame grass and Blazing Sun Moss were crops that didn't need air, but if we later want to grow other crops, air and water will become indispensable.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si asked doubtfully: "Why don't you just use the World Tree to regulate the environment?"

The World Tree is the best life environment regulator—under the shelter of the Tree of Life, even the worst environment can grow things.

Great Xiao Gu said: "Life Tree, manifest, dead."

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si translated: "The Life Tree is what you manifested, is it dead? Can't you speak without imitating Ange? I translate for Ange, and now I have to translate for you too."

Saying this, Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si couldn't help but start complaining.

Great Xiao Gu nodded.

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si turned to Ange and asked: "Can seeds from a manifested Life Tree not grow?"

Ange nodded, then added: "Alive ones are very hard."

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si understood Ange's meaning—don't say manifested Life Tree seeds can't grow alive; even seeds taken from the World Tree itself are hard to grow alive.

When a plane already has a World Tree, other World Trees find it hard to awaken consciousness. The sapling Ange grew in the Palace of Rest.

"Ange, let the sapling give him a living seed." Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si said.

Ange shook his head: "Life God, present."

Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Nai Ge Li Si slapped his waist: "Right, old tree, old tree—come over and shelter a bit."

From afar came the slow, leisurely voice of the Life God: "Life force insufficient—wait until it grows up."

Well, it seems the Life God has long noticed the situation here, just afraid to dilute life force by coming over.

But we don't even need the Life God—Great Xiao Gu can handle everything himself.

After the space temperature dropped again to a suitable level, Great Xiao Gu scattered another type of seed. Soon, red bamboo shoots raced to grow.

Duoluoken arrived upon receiving the notification, saw these bamboo shoots, and immediately lit up, introducing: "Fire God Bamboo—the best material for crafting fire-element magic staves, itself rich in fire elements, able to amplify a mage's own fire-element power. Holding a Fire God Bamboo staff, even if dropped in water, you needn't worry about lacking fire elements to cast spells."

"Moreover, its material is extremely hard—solid bamboo, hard and heavy. Striking down can shatter a skull; striking skin can leave a scorch mark. Not only physical damage, but also fire-element damage."

"However, in the main plane, this material is extremely rare—one must go to a magma-filled fire-element abyss to have a chance to find it."

Looking at this rare magic plant growing in clusters across the space, Duoluoken felt like a dragon fallen into a treasure hoard, excitedly clenching his fists and rubbing his palms.
