Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 69: Rumors Abound

Kunlun Divine Realm.

Gu Qingyang has been staying here for three years, quietly cultivating.

The innate divine techniques of the Heavenly Dao Spirit Root are indeed different from the Divine Tree Spirit Root, accounting for a hundred points of evolution value every day; the effect is quite pleasing.

Moreover, as the spiritual energy of the Kunlun Divine Realm becomes more concentrated, the evolution value given by the Heavenly Dao Spirit Root has also slightly increased.

Gu Qingyang is suspicious.

If the spiritual energy of the Kunlun Divine Realm could be enhanced, the effect of the Heavenly Dao Spirit Root would certainly be doubled.

"It’s a pity that the war of the ancient cultivators destroyed all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Veins, leaving only some micro spirit veins, which are not of much use.

Don’t mention celestial tier spirit veins; even earth tier spirit veins would likely enhance the spiritual energy of the Kunlun Divine Realm tenfold or more."

Gu Qingyang feels a bit regretful.

Right now, there is just one micro spirit vein under the Kunlun Divine Realm, which was originally part of the Kunlun Secret Realm’s spirit vein. As the Kunlun Secret Realm shattered, the spirit vein naturally fell here.

It is precisely because of the existence of the micro spirit vein that Gu Qingyang can perfectly exert the innate divine techniques of the Heavenly Dao Spirit Root.

If not.

The Heavenly Dao Spirit Root providing one hundred points of evolution value each day wouldn’t be possible.

...

...

As usual, Gu Qingyang checks his data panel every few days.

Three years.

The evolution value has only increased by more than seven million.

This is because, over the years, the beast tides have surged fiercely, and only after the Human Federation almost annihilated the fierce beasts was this evolution value barely amassed.

If it were in previous circumstances, even gathering two million evolution value in three years would be problematic.

Upon reaching the fifth tier, the evolution value gained from low-tier fierce beasts has significantly decreased.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingyang glanced at the Divine Kingdom chat group.

It appeared that, at some unknown point, the discussions in the Divine Kingdom chat group gradually shifted from the fierce beast issue to the topic of otherworld invasion.

For many, the term "otherworld" is extremely sensitive.

After all, the Divine Kingdom chat group has an unresolved task to find the otherworld entrance.

Over the years, there have been guesses about otherworld invasions, but they didn’t cause much of a stir and were soon overshadowed by other news.

Back then, humanity was threatened by fierce beasts and had no extra time to deal with other matters.

But now, with the fierce beast crisis pacified, the issue of the otherworld naturally drew people’s attention.

However—

In Gu Qingyang’s view, the topic of otherworld invasion couldn’t have appeared without reason, especially given its timely emergence.

"If my guess is correct, the Federation is likely behind it!"

In past years, when the topic of otherworld invasion was suppressed, it wasn’t solely due to the fierce beast issue; the Federation also had a hand in it.

Now that the fierce beast issue is resolved, the Federation raising the issue of otherworld invasion clearly indicates they’ve discovered something.

Gu Qingyang did not intervene, as there was no need to stop it.

The issue of otherworld invasion is bound to happen sooner or later; the Federation spreading the word now allows people some mental preparation.

At the same time.

Gu Qingyang is also preparing for the otherworld invasion.

Facing otherworldly threats differs from clearing fierce beasts, as it involves different worlds; to plunder the Heavenly Dao Origin, one must use strategies.

Currently, as a Heavenly Dao Agent, Gu Qingyang shares a deep connection with this world; when this world advances in tier, he himself will receive immense benefits.

The simplest benefit is the world feeding back the Heavenly Dao Origin, allowing Gu Qingyang to breakthrough.

Moreover.

As the world advances, the cultivation environment will become more favorable; as a being in the Cyan Yang Realm, Gu Qingyang will naturally benefit.

Of course.

There is a more important issue.

The stronger the world, the stronger the power of the Heavenly Dao becomes, equating Gu Qingyang’s rule over this realm to having a powerful backing.

For example, currently, some of Gu Qingyang’s innate divine techniques are inherently linked to the world.

Take the Heavenly Dao Domain, for instance.

If the Cyan Yang Realm could ascend to the second tier, the power of the Heavenly Dao Domain would also strengthen.

Of course.

Should Gu Qingyang’s tier ascend, the Heavenly Dao Domain might also barely improve, but that is incomparable to the advancement of the world’s tier.

"Heavenly Dao Origin can manifest in everything, but as a Heavenly Dao Agent, the only way to reach other worlds to seize origins is through slaughter!"

Gu Qingyang reflects on the fragmented information left by the Heavenly Dao Origin, understanding somewhat how to acquire the origin.

Wars between realms are often brutal.

When two worlds compete, if one falls, it foretells the entire realm’s devouring; creatures living in that world must either completely submit to the other realm or be annihilated.

In such caliber of war, it often results in the demise of billions, exceedingly brutal.

Ultimately, one realm’s origin is a great temptation to another.

Should it be devoured, immense benefits would ensue.

"Any creature born of a world carries a trace of Heavenly Dao Origin, an inherent aspect of life.

The more otherworldly creatures slain, the more Heavenly Dao Origin is obtained.

Besides, spirit veins and other such components of the world are also rare supreme treasures..."

As these thoughts cross Gu Qingyang’s mind, his spirit promptly enters the Divine Kingdom.

Currently, the Divine Kingdom has transformed from the small plot of Kunlun Divine Realm into a global size.

Since Gu Qingyang’s Divine Kingdom Domain evolved into the Heavenly Dao Domain, the Divine Kingdom naturally expanded, yet it appears more illusory than before.

Clearly.

While the Divine Kingdom’s scope has widened, its quality has considerably diminished compared to the former Divine Kingdom.

This is a usual occurrence.

Yet, without a breakthrough in the Divine Kingdom’s tier, expanding its territory must weaken its powers elsewhere.

Meanwhile.

Above the Divine Kingdom, there exist star-like glimmers, some the size of thumbs, some the size of fists, silently floating there.

These glimmers are none other than the fragments of divine soul power collected by the Divine Kingdom following each believer’s demise, subsequently manifesting as such.

As long as the Divine Soul remains, creatures have the potential for resurrection.

However, with the current fourth-tier Divine Kingdom’s capability, Gu Qingyang has no means to resurrect the deceased, but he anticipates that when the Divine Kingdom evolves to a sufficiently powerful state, resurrection of the fallen will be achievable.
