Evolution From the Big Tree

Their movements made no sound or commotion, none at all. There was nothing but deathly silence.

The Dark Domain did not just erase the five senses; it also swallowed all sound.

And in just a few breaths after Yu Zi Yu’s roots sneaked into the river of mist, his eyes suddenly lit up, seemingly discovering something.

If one looked from his perspective, they would find that the ends of his roots that had slithered into the river of mist were tightly wrapped around various figures, binding them like mummies.

One of them was an obscure God of Elysia— the God of Nature.

And among the others, aside from a few unknown Elves, there was also a Tree.

This Tree was none other than the Tree of Life—the Sacred Relic of the Elves, and it too had been captured by Yu Zi Yu.

“With this, there are only three left.”

Lifting his gaze slightly, Yu Zi Yu glanced at the God of Orcs, the Elf Queen, and the God of Dreams, who were battling fiercely with the Light and Dark Twin Kings, the Undying Blood Raven, and the Demon Phoenix. He could not help but find it amusing.

Because, even as they fought, they remained oblivious to the fact that their comrades had completely disappeared.

Yu Zi Yu promptly sprang into action, showing no hesitation. His Spiritual Energy surged as he opened the portal to one of the Space Pockets, which bore ‘Void’ in its name—the Pocket of Void.

The Pocket of Void was a place with nothing but nothingness. It was the perfect prison.

Simply put, it was a form of exile! Devoid of any kind of matter, it was like a barren universe. However, unlike the universe, where stars could occasionally be seen, the Pocket of Void lacked even the basic Spiritual Energy.

“Go…” With a single command, Yu Zi Yu’s roots, winding around the captured Elves and the God of Nature, sent them into the Pocket of Void.

Having done this, Yu Zi Yu slowly lifted his gaze, observing the Tree of Life in the distance, that was affected by the power of the Dark Domain. Only then did he slowly retract his Spiritual Energy, allowing the Tree of Life’s power to surge.

*Booooom…* With a sudden roar, a surge of Vitality erupted from the Tree of Life, creating a green pillar of light shooting through the starry sky, visible to the naked eye.

And under this green pillar of light, a Towering Tree could be seen slowly rising, growing bigger and bigger.

However, unlike Yu Zi Yu’s extraordinary and mystical appearance, this Tree was a genuine Tree. Lush and verdant, it resembled an entire forest. Its green leaves shimmered with a crystalline glow. And its massive trunk was so grand that it seemed to support the sky.

This was the Tree of Life, the Divine Tree symbolizing ‘Life.’

But, unfortunately, right the moment this Divine Tree revealed its true form…

*Roooooaar…*A deafening roar suddenly erupted across the starry sky, drawing its attention toward the source. To the Tree of Life’s stupefaction, the space suddenly shattered as a gigantic Azure Dragon’s head, as large as a mountain, emerged from inside.

The enormous Azure Dragon Head, much like the Giant Dragons of Dragon Island, radiated a majestic Dragon’s aura. Rather, the Azure Dragon Head’s aura was even more overwhelming. So much so that labeling it as terrifying would not be an understatement. Just by gazing at its majestic Dragon Eyes froze the Tree of Life in its place, as if it was petrified.

However, what left her even more terrified was that just as the Azure Dragon Head emerged, a mysterious suction suddenly erupted from it, draining away the power of the Tree of Life.

At first, it was not strong, and it was draining little by little.

But soon, the Azure Dragon Head opened its mouth, and the suction began to intensify, drawing away the Tree of Life’s power like a whale gulping down water. ř𝓪Ꞑօ฿ƐṦ

“No, no…” The Tree of Life’s voice became sharp with panic and fear.

At that moment, as the suction increased, the Tree of Life realized that the Azure Dragon was not only devouring her Spiritual Energy but also consuming her very essence—her still-developing Quintessence of Life.

“No, please, don’t…” Her voice trembled as the entire Tree of Life began to shiver. Her branches shook violently, and countless leaves began to fall.

Visible to the naked eye, her enormous form, which once bloated the starry sky, started to shrink. The entire canopy took on a withered yellow hue.

[Such an unforgettable delicacy…] Yu Zi Yu thought to himself, finally understanding what this Tree of Life meant to the Azure Dragon.

Divine Trees and Natural Sacred Beings like the Azure Dragon were incredibly rare. It was difficult for another to appear within the same era.

For instance, at the peak of the last era, after billions of years of accumulation, the Elves had only nine Trees of Life.

This showed just how rare such beings were.

Moreover, the fact that they held the potential to grasp the Principle of Life made them even more precious.

However, it was also a good thing. At least for Yu Zi Yu, it was an immense opportunity.

After all, he, who was even more powerful, could easily consume the Tree of Life as a supplement, absorbing its Quintessence to enhance himself.

And it proved to be true. In just a short time, Yu Zi Yu felt his understanding of the Principle of Life deepen significantly.

“What a pleasant surprise…” murmuring to himself, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes flickered with excitement, gazing at the Tree of Life.

Then…

*Booooom…* The remaining Azure Dragon Body emerged from the shattered space, swiftly coiling around the entire Tree of Life.

“Would you be willing to serve me?”

Yu Zi Yu’s Dragon Eyes gleamed as he spoke with a hint of teasing, staring directly at the Tree of Life.

“I… I…” The Tree of Life could not say anything. Even now, she did not understand what kind of existence Yu Zi Yu’s Azure Dragon Form was, nor why it could absorb her power.

Nonetheless, she was sure about one thing: she was in deep trouble—immense trouble. Things were completely out of her control now.

At that moment, as if sensing the Tree of Life’s thoughts, the two whiskers of Yu Zi Yu’s Azure Dragon Form shook as if in a smile.

“It seems like you’ve agreed to serve under me… That’s good. From now on, you will be my Sentient Artifact… I can promise you this: as long as you cooperate, I won’t erase your consciousness. You can remain as the Artifact Spirit…”

Amid Yu Zi Yu’s hearty laughter, the Azure Dragon body coiled tightly around the Tree of Life, and in the next moment, they both vanished from the starry sky.
