65: Tree of Life: Mine is very big, please bear with it~

The tree of life landed, and without ceremony, a vast amount of life essence surged forth, coiling around the Coiling Dragon Ancient Tree in the center of the Forest Sea.

It was immediately bewildered.

It stared blankly at the tree of life not far away, which was clearly much taller than itself, and then compared it to its own level.

Hmm, peak Silver… damn it!

Is this really an opponent of the same tier?

...Outside,

The live broadcast screen remained on Su Bai's battle interface.

This time,

Su Bai did not activate the battle simulation.

Therefore, the live broadcast footage was clearly displayed. Watching this giant tree descend from the sky, everyone present, especially the City Lord, clearly paused, their expressions stunned.

“tree of life?”

He frowned as he uttered these words.

As soon as he spoke,

It immediately triggered a reaction from the surrounding principals, with Principal Nanshan being the most intense, immediately asking, “tree of life? City Lord, are you sure?”

The tree of life had a resounding reputation,

Especially since it was a subordinate evolutionary branch of the legendary World Tree, it had always been an object of desire for many Creators.

Almost the moment that name was spoken,

Principal Nanshan keenly sensed that several principals present had greed flickering in their eyes!

His heart tightened.

The weakest of these principals were Third-Tier; if they united, it would be detrimental to Su Bai!

Realizing this,

He immediately changed his tone, deliberately saying, “The tree of life is priceless but unavailable. It is said that a few years ago, a tree of life appeared and was obtained by a nobody, but due to carelessness, it was seized by a certain Fifth-Tier Creator.”

“But soon, it was found by the Creation Guild, forcibly branded, and became cannon fodder defending the Immortal Great Wall…”

“It is said that it is already dead.”

As these words were spoken,

The several principals who had previously shown greed immediately displayed hesitant and struggling expressions, weighing the pros and cons.

Ma Huateng glanced indifferently at Principal Nanshan.

A sense of oppression followed, and Principal Nanshan broke out in a cold sweat, but fortunately, the pressure soon dissipated.

Ma Huateng smiled slightly and also nodded, “Indeed, there was such an incident.”

“Not only that, I remember similar things happening in Jiangcheng, but…”

At this point,

Ma Huateng’s smile faded, and his voice became cold, “I killed them all.”

Beating the grass to startle the snake!

This was clearly a warning to everyone not to have any other ideas about the tree of life.

Su Bai’s stunning performance earlier,

Had already earned Ma Huateng’s favor. If he didn't die prematurely in the future, he was very likely to become another rising true god.

It is better to have more friends than enemies.

Comparing the two,

Ma Huateng naturally chose to forge a good relationship with Su Bai, as he was not foolish; if he were truly foolish, he wouldn't be in his current position as City Lord.

The brief interlude ended.

Ma Huateng successfully deterred the restless crowd, and at the same time, in the live broadcast footage, as a large amount of life essence was drawn away,

The Coiling Dragon Ancient Tree finally grew anxious.

If this continued,

Even it would eventually be drained into a mere tree trunk!

Vines, like a coiled dragon, waved, and deep green light waves spread across the entire Forest Sea like ripples!

The next moment,

Killing intent emerged.

The root systems of the entire Forest Sea united, as if their consciousnesses had merged, and began to contend with the tree of life for life essence,

And went a step further,

Attempting to embed its roots into the tree of life to plunder its vast life essence!

...[origin log: You summoned the tree of life to the special plane 'Forest Sea'. The tree of life possesses the mythical bloodline 'World Tree', and life-tier suppression is activated!]

[The tree of life roots itself in the earth, and its powerful life-draining ability makes the Child of the World, 'Coiling Dragon Ancient Tree', unable to resist.]

[Puff, puff, the root systems of the Forest Sea and the tree of life stabbed at each other, and in the end, the tree of life emerged victorious!]

[The Forest Sea side yielded one thousand kilometers of land!]

As the simulation information dropped,

Su Bai saw that within a thousand-kilometer radius of the Forest Sea plane, all the trees withered and disappeared.

Instead,

The sub-bodies branched off from the tree of life occupied this land.

The invasion was not over yet.

The tree of life's suppression was irresistible to tree-type life forms. Even the peak Silver Coiling Dragon Ancient Tree, in the face of the tree of life's suppression,

Was like a small sapling, unable to resist!

It could only be pressed to the ground and kneaded at will, emitting wails and struggles!

This scene,

Even Su Bai was somewhat stunned.

Why did it feel... a little off?

But no matter what,

Looking at this situation, conquering the Forest Sea plane was only a matter of time. Su Bai temporarily shifted his attention to the interior of the Origin Realm.

After conquering the Zerg Continent,

The Origin Realm forces had suffered severe losses and needed to replenish during this period, otherwise, when facing the final hurdle,

There was always a risk of failure.

He first focused on the Queen of Blades.

[origin log: After conquering the Zerg Continent, the Origin Realm Army returned. The Queen of Blades returned to Alien Island, built a high nest, and bred Zerg...]

[Please choose the Zerg you wish to breed — Plasma Bug, Tank Bug, Pulse War Scorpion.]

Inside the Origin Realm,

On Alien Island, a Zerg Hive, like crystal, was established. The Queen of Blades lay comfortably in the deepest part of the Hive, stretching her entire body, her graceful figure fully displayed... Hmm, very pale... Bah!

Now was not the time to think about that.

Su Bai dismissed that thought and then looked at the three options.

After some thought,

He chose to breed three thousand Plasma Bugs and Pulse War Scorpions each, and four thousand Tank Bugs.

This was experience gained from actual combat.

It had to be said,

If not for this actual combat, Su Bai would not have discovered the Origin Realm's shortcomings.

That was the lack of ranged power.

Not just ranged,

But also aerial units, naval fleets, and underground legions... The underground legions,

After the last great war, only three Zombie Earth Dragons remained and could not be replenished, making them unable to stand alone.

Aerial units,

After exhausting the missiles left by the three civilizations and the airships from Marley's side, Su Bai had completely lost his aerial counter-attack capability.

Among his legions,

Only a handful, such as the Frost Titans, Queen of Blades, Alice, Two-Winged Seraphs... could pose a threat to the air.

The Plasma Bug Legion and the Pulse War Scorpion Legion,

Were created to prevent such situations.

As for the Tank Bugs,

They were to strengthen the overall defensive capabilities. The current overall situation of the Origin Realm was one of ample offense but insufficient defense.

The appearance of the Tank Bug Legion could just make up for some of the defensive deficiencies.

And then,

There was the very last naval fleet.

For this, Su Bai truly had no solution.

None of the existing extraordinary civilizations,

Had evolved in this direction. To solve this, he could only draw a template related to naval fleets in subsequent template draws.

“In anime from my previous life, there was one that met the standard, but unfortunately, this gacha mechanism has no guaranteed pull, which is simply a nightmare for unlucky players.”

Su Bai complained,

Then,

He saw the Queen of Blades activate the Endless Plague skill, and three different types of Zerg were mass-produced in an assembly-line fashion.

Soon,

Three complete extraordinary legions appeared before Su Bai's eyes!
