Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 1288 - 696: Return to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree
Chapter 1288: Chapter 696: Return to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree
The facts were just as expected.
After Gaven reached a cooperation agreement in Nimiel Village, he left Miss Goser there to discuss more detailed matters, while he himself used the rarely deployed Teleportation Spell of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree to head to the Fairy Wilderness.
The upgrade of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree was nearing completion, and it was summoning him. As part of the Dragon Soul, he could only be complete by merging with Lord Virginia and the Dragon Oak Mother Tree’s core. Only then could the most critical step be achieved.
This time, deploying the Teleportation Spell of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, Gaven clearly noticed a profound difference compared to before.
Previously, the teleportation performed by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree involved a notable dragging process. It felt as though a massive force was pulling him from below to the Mother Tree, causing a slight delay—although just fractions of a second—but that minute delay could be fatal in battles among masters, as it left room for suppression spells or power to breach any sealing. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
This time, however, it wasn’t the Dragon Oak Mother Tree pulling Gaven towards itself; instead, it came directly to him. A gleaming emerald light manifested, forming an emerald cocoon that enveloped him. In a flash, this cocoon transformed into the colossal phantom of an ancient, towering tree—it could only be the Dragon Oak Mother Tree.
When the phantom of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree vanished, Gaven disappeared along with it.
The implications of this transformation were unmistakable: it signified a tremendous increase in the Dragon Oak Mother Tree’s strength.
This sensation became even more pronounced when Gaven found himself within the Dragon Oak Mother Tree afterward.
The location of his arrival within the Mother Tree had shifted—it was no longer his originally designated safehouse, but rather the heart of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree—the core energy convergence center of the entire Mother Tree.
Gaven could vividly perceive it was not Lord Virginia who had dragged him here but rather the modification of his future teleportation destinations to this very site. He could sense that this adjustment had deeper, more mysterious functionalities awaiting further harmonization between both parties to unlock.
The heart of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree now felt more aptly named than ever.
What had previously been a massive internal space filled with emerald Life Force had evolved over time. After unlocking the Dream Divine Spark and confining it, the heart had transformed into an enormous sphere of emerald light.
Now, this emerald sphere had become a giant heart-like structure—standing as tall as a three-story building—and it was no longer composed purely of emerald Life Force, but rather a mixture of plant tissue and blood-flesh matter, forming a tangible embodiment. The emerald Life Force had been restructured into blood flowing through conduits.
The benefits of this transformation were evident. Any energy inherently tends to diffuse, and even the Life Force within the Dragon Oak Mother Tree was no exception. With this physical constriction, the volatility and dissipation of Life Force were maximally restrained, allowing energy output to follow precise intended pathways.
This marked a new level in the manipulation of energy within the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, preparing it for its fundamental evolution from a mere plant into an Awakened Plant.
Yet the sheer size of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree posed a unique challenge—a scale so vast that the natural energy mechanisms of Awakened Plants were insufficient to fully sustain it.
This limitation wasn’t exclusive to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree. The Enlightenment Spell struggled to awaken trees of excessively massive scale for the same reason. Even if trees taller than forty or fifty meters were awakened, they wouldn’t transform into colossal Treants but rather reduced versions of colossal or giant-sized ones.
Once they reverted to their original forms, they would return to their unaltered state, indicating that Treant-mode retained energy far more concentrated than tree-mode.
To this day, Gaven hadn’t even heard of, let alone seen, colossal Treants.
Hence, during the Dragon Oak Mother Tree’s absorption of the Divine Root of Moando, the god of decay and corruption, it not only seized Moando’s Corruption Divinity and Power but also borrowed Moando’s pathway of flesh ascension—a fusion of animal and plant tissues.
However, the Dragon Oak Mother Tree didn’t utilize Moando’s corruption power directly; instead, it refined and assimilated this into the purest Life Force.
Thus, the flesh it spawned was neither overwhelmingly fetid nor mentally malign over prolonged observation. Instead, it embodied the most natural, arresting beauty—as if it had always been destined to exist this way.
The seamless interweaving of flesh and plant tissue formed intricate wooden layers resembling artwork that wrapped protectively around the flesh like skin over bodily organs. It provided security while presenting visuals so elegant and pleasing—to the extent that most people would find a skinless beauty unsettling.
Thump... Thump... Thump...
The rhythmic pulsations of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree’s heart echoed like the toll of a giant celestial bell.
Each pulse boomed a thunderous sound that resonated not only through one’s ears and body but also penetrated one’s soul. It compelled involuntary trembling, causing the blood in one’s veins to synchronously pulse alongside it, as though drawing people into rhythmical unity with it.
Gaven didn’t know how others felt, but for him, this was the exact sensation.
"Embrace this pulse; let the Mother Tree regain her wholeness. She will lead you to experience a beauty beyond imagination." A figure of indescribable transcendent allure appeared before Gaven—it could only be Lord Virginia.
Just as the Dragon Oak Mother Tree had undergone a qualitative metamorphosis, this Yaling Lord too had transformed profoundly—her demeanor and appearance had undergone a complete upheaval, more stunning than ever before.
