[If I seize its Innate Talent and then breed life, it would be somewhat unbecoming of me…] Sighing in his heart, Yu Zi Yu pushed away the idea of plundering the Tree of Life’s Innate Talent.

As a being of his status, there was one thing he truly cared about—a concept known as the ‘Dao Heart.’

Since he had reservations, he did not need to forcibly take it. Besides, he already possesses many Innate Talents, so many that he did not even have enough time to develop them. If he were to seize yet another Innate Talent, it would be too much.

At least, Yu Zi Yu told himself this to suppress the desire of seizing this Innate Talent.

However, this did not mean Yu Zi Yu had given up on this terrifying Innate Talent. After all, there were multiple ways to achieve the same result.

Keeping other possibilities aside, Yu Zi Yu had already thought of an excellent method.

“I can capture the Tree of Life, and by continuously refining it, I can turn it into a Sentient Artifact…” As he murmured in his heart, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes gleamed.

In the previous era, weapons refined from Divine Trees were not unheard of.

In fact, there were many!

The most famous among them was wielded by an Eternal Realm Transcendent, an Extreme Dao Artifact known as the Seven Jewel Tree. Nothing in this world could escape it.

Its terrifying power was such that even those of the same realm deeply feared it.

[If I truly refine it into a Sentient Artifact, it would be far better than merely plundering its Innate Talent…] Yu Zi Yu made up his mind and sheepishly grinning.

He decided that after refining the Tree of Life into a Sentient Artifact, its Master would be none other than the Azure Dragon, the Natural Sacred Being born from Yu Zi Yu’s primary root.

Currently, aside from his main body, Yu Zi Yu has three other bodies.

One is the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon, transformed from his secondary root—the Cosmic Root. It carried a faint chance of bearing the Principle of Infinity. As of now, it possessed the Titan Bloodline and had even devoured the body of a Void Behemoth.

Another was the Void Elf Body, which had just recently evolved from the ‘King of Sea Beasts,’ the Dark Willow. It possessed Spatial Talent with unlimited potential.

And the last one, of course, was the Azure Dragon, the Natural Sacred Being transformed from the primary root, bearing the Principle of Life, which aligned perfectly with the Tree of Life.

If the Tree of Life could indeed be refined into a Sentient Artifact, who else would it serve as a natal weapon but the Azure Dragon?

After all, Yu Zi Yu’s main body already has a Dao-Protecting Artifact—the Radiant Galaxy.

The Void Elf had its natal weapon—the Star Bow.

As for the Soaring Purple Flood Dragon, with its Titan Bloodline, its body was already its most formidable weapon.

Considering all this, it became quite apparent that the Azure Dragon, born from the main root, lacked a decent weapon.

With a smile in his heart, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze turned toward several figures approaching from a distance, his eyes flickering.

Especially when he looked at the small, emerald-green Tree standing on the shoulder of the Elf Queen, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze grew playful, like a predator sizing up its prey.

At this moment, the small, emerald-green Tree on the Elf Queen’s shoulder could not help but shiver. A chilling sensation, indescribable in words, suddenly crept into its heart.

“What’s wrong?” Noticing the Tree of Life’s unease, the Elf Queen softly inquired.

“I have a bad feeling…” the Tree of Life frowned in response.

For some reason, as it drew closer to the Colossal Tree that seemed capable of supporting the starry sky from afar, the ominous feeling in its heart grew stronger.

But then, as if thinking of something, it turned its gaze toward the three figures bathed in holy light not far away. “Are you sure your methods will work?”

“Of course,” patting his chest, the God of Orcs, also known as the God of War, confidently assured, “We three are Native Gods born of Elysia, and can draw its power. Though we might not dare claim we can defeat this unknown True God, sealing it is certainly not a problem.”

“Indeed.” Beside him, the playful-looking God of Dreams, trailing the starlight, added, “The God of Orcs never boasts. If he says he can do it, then he surely can.”

“That’s good to hear.” Nodding, the Tree of Life grew a bit more confident.

[If we can seal this unknown True God, then this war would likely come to an end. After all, to capture the bandits, first we need to capture their leader. Once the leader is gone, the motley crowd would naturally pose no threat to us.] As the thought crossed its mind, the Tree of LIfe’s Spiritual Energy surged as a verdant halo spread from it, enveloping several figures within it.

*Boooooom…* In an instant, amidst the thunderous roars, the aura of the figures within the emerald halo surged dramatically.

“Hahaha…” The God of Orcs burst into a raucous laughter, and shouted in an unusual excitement, “Truly worthy of the renowned Tree of Life! Your ability is beyond words. With you here, I even dare to challenge this True God one-on-one…”

“Don’t be careless… I can only keep you at the True God Realm for a short time… Moreover, we still don’t know what kind of abilities this True God possesses or what level of existence it is… If…” The Tree of Life’s tone grew tense, showing signs of worry.

“No matter… Trust me, this universe had yet given birth to a True God that is too powerful… Remember… It’s already unusual for a True God to appear now. If one with Heaven defying combat power were to emerge… Hmph, then we’d just have to admit defeat…” With these words, the God of Orcs surged with Spiritual Energy as he transformed into a golden stream of light, rushing toward the far end of the starry sky.

…

All this while, Yu Zi Yu made no move, but rather waited quietly. The long years of seclusion had almost made him forget what it felt like to battle others.

However, there was one thing he was certain of—It was something ingrained in his very bones.

With a playful smile curling his lips, Yu Zi Yu slowly withdrew one massive root after another from the depths of the Void Space, roots that pierced through space itself.

*Booooom, booooom, booooom…* As dozens of roots danced across the starry sky, they stirred up fearsome turbulence that swept everything in their path.

Right then, a thunderous voice suddenly echoed from the far end of the starry sky, “O, unknown powerful being, where do you come from, and what do you want?”

” …” However, it received no reply, only the sight of a Colossal Tree that seemed to support the entire starry sky, its branches and roots swaying gently.

*Hmph!* The God of Orcs let out a cold snort and suppressed the last trace of hope that had risen in his heart.

In fact, if he was this strong and he had discovered a new world, his next course of action would naturally be invasion as well.

And now, the situation was already laid bare before them.

“Harbor no illusion. Let’s defeat him.” With this advice, the God of Orcs hesitated no longer.

He gripped his ‘Divine Axe’ tightly, and an overwhelming Divine Energy erupted from him. “If you won’t speak, then let’s fight.”

His thunderous roar was accompanied by a rising, mighty pillar of Divine Energy that shot straight into the starry sky.

From a distance, within that pillar of light, a colossal phantom hundreds of meters tall could be seen, raising a terrifyingly huge axe and slashing down at the starry sky.

*Booooooom…* As if splitting the starry sky itself, the golden Divine Energy transformed into a golden axe blade, tens of thousands of meters long, hurtling straight toward Yu Zi Yu.
