Chapter 2204 Condensation
At that moment, in front of the Altar of the Wood God,
The pillar of light that shot up into the sky slowly dissipated.
Fang Heng felt a bit puzzled.
It seemed like a large portion of the strength had been extracted from the withered sacred tree.
Only less than a third remained.
What's going on?
There was an unusual energy loss from the withered sacred tree.
Or perhaps, had the Elder Council of the tree spirit clan already extracted two-thirds, leaving only one-third?
Something just didn't seem right.
As Fang Heng pondered, suddenly, the ground beneath them began to tremble violently.
As the main body of the withered sacred tree completely dissipated before them, the surrounding withered trees also rapidly turned into ashes.
The surrounding mist rapidly dispersed.
The outer seal barrier gradually disappeared, and the teleportation passage behind them quickly became inactive.
People looked up, feeling the continuous tremors beneath their feet.
What's happening?
The tremors were coming from afar.
Looking up, small hills-like large life forms gradually emerged in the distance.
Stone giants?
These life forms, composed entirely of accumulated stones, stood seven to eight meters tall.
They seemed somewhat cumbersome in movement.
A colossal entity!
Fang Heng sensed the power emanating from the stone giants rippling out.
The stone giants gradually revived, climbing up from underground and swiftly marching towards their location.
A sense of urgency surged in Ana's heart. "Fang Heng, what are those monsters?"
Fang Heng furrowed his brow.
Clearly, he didn't know what was going on either.
Everything seemed normal; he had just drained all the strength from the withered sacred tree.
So, what was the deal with these stone giants?
Put that aside for now!
Fang Heng withdrew his gaze and looked towards the Altar of the Wood God.
On the altar.
There it was!
Above the altar floated three seed-like objects.
Seeds?
Whoosh!
Ignoring the approaching stone giants, Fang Heng's heart stirred, and he immediately flashed towards the altar, reaching out to grab the three seeds in his hand.
[Hint: The player obtains item-Essence of the sacred tree*3.]
Item: Essence of the sacred tree.
Description: Residual seeds left after the death of the sacred tree, are gathered through energy extraction. These seeds contain some of the power the sacred tree once possessed. A newly born sacred tree can temporarily acquire some of these abilities through absorption (the ability can be permanently solidified through a special ritual).
Additional description: The energy contained in these seeds can be absorbed and utilized as natural energy.
Additional description: This item is a special item and cannot be placed in the backpack. It will always drop upon death.
Additional description: While in possession of this item, the player will incur additional aggression from the stone spirit puppet group.
Seeds of the sacred tree!
Fang Heng was greatly delighted.
The energy elites left behind after the death of the previous sacred tree were preserved in the form of seeds.
The three seeds varied in size, each attached with different skills.
Abe Akaya is also a descendant of the sacred tree.
Therefore, there is a high probability that the seeds can be absorbed by the sacred tree, Abe Akaya!
Fang Heng's heart raced with excitement.
What a profitable gain!
Fang Heng immediately checked the additional skill attributes of the three seeds in his hand.
[Item: Essence of the sacred tree-seal.]
Special power: Seed of Seal.
Description: Using the power of the sacred tree, seal the target unit. After sealing, the sacred tree can slowly absorb the strength of the sealed unit (the maximum number of seals, the maximum seal strength, and absorption efficiency are related to the strength of the sacred tree itself).
Ability duration: 48 months.
Good stuff!
Seal was a special ability.
It could be used to deal with troublesome creatures that possessed strong vitality or could not be killed by conventional means.
In addition, the seeds of the sacred tree could gradually absorb the strength of the sealed objects, enhancing themselves.
No problem!
There are two more!
Fang Heng took a deep breath and continued to inspect the second seed.
[Item: Seed of Energy-Super-sized protective barrier (damaged).]
Special power: Utilize the special power of the sacred tree to create a super-sized defensive barrier (with environmental simulation effect and energy absorption effect). Within the defensive barrier, all natural science spells are enhanced by 20%, and an additional 1000 HP healing effect per second is provided.
Ability duration: 72 months.
Additional description: This seed appears damaged and must be repaired before use. If used directly, there's an 80% chance of the sacred tree inheriting the skill failing, and a 20% chance of the inherited skill being weakened.
Damaged?
Fang Heng frowned.
To be honest, the effect of the second seed's skill was much weaker compared to the seal seed he just examined.
It was about barriers and healing.
In other words, it was a defensive skill.
It was a bit frustrating to passively endure attacks.
Moreover, the sacred tree Abe Akaya already had a similar barrier skill, and this seed was also in a damaged state.
The game had not even provided a hint on how to repair it from its damaged state.
Repairing it would probably be troublesome.
But...
If he didn't want too much trouble, he might as well just let Abe Akaya absorb it as energy.
After all, it was a seed full of energy.
It was definitely inferior to the first one.
But it's not a complete loss.
Fang Heng continued to shift his gaze to the third seed.
[Item: Seed of Energy-Spatial extension.]
Special power: Spatial extension.
Description: Awaken this power, and the sacred tree can break through the limitations of space, extending branches into other worlds (shared HP among all sacred trees).
Duration after absorption: 24 months.
What?
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
This thing...
Upon reading the brief item description, an expression of incredulity filled Fang Heng's eyes.
What a find!
It was even better than the Seed of Seal!
If Abe Akaya could absorb this thing and gain its skill...
Currently, what limits Abe Akaya's growth was the inability to traverse different spaces. Once Abe Akaya could grow across spaces...
Fang Heng's heart raced uncontrollably.
Take it!
He must take them all!
According to the item hint, the inherited abilities were only temporary, but "temporary" could last for at least two years.
Two years would be enough time for him to find a way to permanently solidify the skills!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!"
Just as Fang Heng finished examining the seed attributes, a dense sound of breaking through space suddenly came from behind.
He turned his head.
A dense mass of huge rocks was hurtling towards him!
What the hell!
The dense rocks blocked all his escape routes!
Fang Heng immediately crossed his arms in front of him.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The massive rocks slammed into him!
Fang Heng gritted his teeth.
He felt the weight of each stone hitting him!
The impacted area was sore, and he was sent flying by the rocks!
The dense rocks kept pounding on him, causing Fang Heng to be continuously knocked backward!
