Chapter 239: Similarities between the Life and Death Wood and the Wind God

Zhurong caught the green Spirit Stone and looked at Ye Chen in a daze.

“Isn’t this a Wood Spirit Stone? Why are you giving it to me?” It was confused.

“Don’t just look at it. Try to find out which types of Spiritual Energy are in the Spirit Stone.” Ye Chen did not answer directly.

Zhurong looked at Goulong helplessly. “I’m not a perceiving-type mutated beast. You should be better at this, right?” It said to Goulong, “I’ll leave this to you to analyze.”

As it spoke, it was about to pick up the Spirit Stone and hand it to Goulong.

“I’m giving it to you because I believe in your ability.” Ye Chen went forward to stop it and said to Zhurong, “Try it first. Be more serious. You’ll know why I’m doing this after you try.”

Since he was so insistent, Zhurong couldn’t reject him. It could only start to explore the inside of the Spirit Stone.

This time, it was also dumbfounded.

“There’s Fire Spiritual Energy inside?!” It put down the Spirit Stone in shock. “Did I make a mistake in my perception? I’m only more sensitive to the attributes I have because I’m not the perception-type. The body I’m using now belongs to the Immortal Phoenix… So the Spiritual Energy I can vaguely sense should indeed be Fire Spiritual Energy! But how is this possible? Isn’t the Life and Death Wood afraid of fire?!”

Ye Chen shrugged.

“If you hadn’t suddenly mentioned that the Tree of Life and Death is also an abnormal plant, I wouldn’t have thought of it.”

After receiving Godly Gift, Ye Chen met the Titan God in his dream. The system authority was also increased. There were some changes in the system and some new functions were updated, which brought him a lot of convenience.

One of the most important things was that he could check the composition of the Spiritual Energy in the item through the system at any time, even making a comparison.

Just now, when he was recalling the characteristics of the Life and Death Wood, Ye Chen suddenly realized that these troublesome characteristics also existed on the Wind God. He almost doubted if the Wood Spiritual Energy and the Wind Spiritual Energy had the same effect.

However, after thinking calmly, Ye Chen confirmed that they were clearly different.

Wood Spiritual Energy could exist in nature and wasn’t dependent on a certain area or mutated beast. It didn’t have a deep relationship with the Life and Death Wood and was clearly different from the Wind God and Wind Spiritual Energy.

What was special was not the Wood Spiritual Energy but the Life and Death Wood.

The Wood Spiritual Energy that existed in a natural state was usually too sparse, so it was difficult to form Spirit Stones. Only by using the Life and Death Wood to gather Spiritual Energy could it form Wood Spiritual Stones, just like how only the Windy Birds that was suspected to be the incarnation of the Wind God could produce Spirit Stones.

However, the Wood Spirit Stone was different from other Spirit Stones that were purely formed by gathering Spiritual Energy. It was condensed inside the Life and Death Wood and existed in the form of Wood Marrow. It could not really take shape. Therefore, it would absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy that would not harm it to form a protective shell. This was why there was a difference in the weight of the Wood Spirit Stone.

When Ye Chen first came into contact with the Wood Spirit Stones, he had doubts because of the difference in their weight. At that time, Zhurong explained the cause of this phenomenon.

However, Ye Chen had heard of this phenomenon more than once.

After he obtained the fragments of the Petrified Dragon Claw Grass, he had heard similar information when he was asking the leader of the Feather Dragons. It was also affected by the external Spiritual Energy it absorbed. This could be used as evidence because of the proportion of Spiritual Energy Ye Chen saw.

However, Ye Chen hadn’t realized the connection between the two at that time. Since the Life and Death Wood only absorbed Wood Spiritual Energy, and the Dragon Claw Grass helped to absorb the rest of the Spiritual Energy and help the Life and Death Wood purify it, then who provided the Spirit Stone shell formed from the broken branches of the Life and Death Wood?

There was only one possibility, and that was the Dragon Claw Grass. That was the ability it had.

However, why did the Wood Spirit Stone form?

It was not an existence condensed from Spiritual Energy. It was more like a Spirit Stone created by these two plants. The meaning of its existence was debatable.

Hence, Ye Chen remembered what the leader of the Feather Dragons had mentioned about the Life and Death Wood.

The Life and Death Wood and the Dragon Claw Grass existed in large numbers in the foreign realms where the Feather Dragons lived. Therefore, after the Feather Dragons discovered that the Dragon Claw Grass from the Sky Domain had a certain effect, they immediately found the Dragon Claw Grass in their foreign realm to test its effect. However, even though they were so familiar with the Dragon Claw Grass, they did not discover the connection between the Life and Death Wood and the Wood Spirit Stone.

The place where more Wood Spirit Stones were recorded wasn’t near the Life and Death Wood. Instead, it was in shallow water.

This made Ye Chen have a new thought.

The Feather Dragons didn’t find the Wood Spirit Stones formed from the broken branches near the Life and Death Wood not because they weren’t eye-catching, but because these Spirit Stones had disappeared in another way. Just like how the Windy Birds hatched from the Wind Spirit Stones, the Life and Death Wood sprouted and grew from the Wood Spirit Stone.

The Life and Death Wood and the Dragon Claw Grass were very likely not in a cooperative relationship but a completely symbiotic relationship. It was just that they acted like two different plants.

How similar were their existences to the Wind God and its incarnations?

After realizing this, Ye Chen immediately planned to start with the Wood Spirit Stone. He planned to deduce its formation process through its information. If it really didn’t work, he could try to set up a small array to plant a Spirit Stone to verify his guess.

Through the Life and Death Wood that was very similar to the Wind God’s situation, he might be able to find some secrets about the Wind God, especially about the Sky Domain.

The current Wind God’s Divine Realm should have been torn into four foreign realms according to the distribution of the Sky Domains. The disappearance of the Sky Domains from the Primitive Continent proved this.

If he wanted to improve himself and the mutated beasts, these four foreign realms were Ye Chen’s best help.

The Feather Dragons’ ability to move foreign realms could help him move these four foreign realms into the Primitive Burial Ground after he found them. This way, the old Divine Realm would be his!

Therefore, he really needed to get more information about that lost Divine Realm while Goulong’s consciousness was still around.

However, when Ye Chen saw the ratio of Spiritual Energy in the Wood Spirit Stone, he instantly felt that his brain was not enough.

Among the Spirit Stones, there was nearly 10% of Fire Spiritual Energy!

There were only four types of Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Stones. The Wood Spiritual Energy has the most. However, the Water and Earth Spiritual Energy together were only comparable to the Fire Spiritual Energy.

Ye Chen did not believe it and looked at the ratio of Spiritual Energy of all the Wood Spirit Stones. They were almost identical.

The Fire Spiritual Energy in each Spirit Stone was almost identical, making him unable to say that it was a coincidence.

This phenomenon made him think of genetics—this should be a genetic phenomenon that happened to plants.

But how was the Life and Death Wood related to the fire attribute? When the Sky Domain was formed, the Earth Fire had just begun to spread and hadn’t reached the surface. Could it be a characteristic that appeared after the Sky Domain was formed?

Ye Chen was vexed. This was because he did not know when the Life and Death Wood appeared.

Fortunately, the system notification sounded in time.

[Before the Mutated Beast War]

It was the reply of the Titan God. It was quite short, but it pointed at the originally impossible answer.

Before the mutated beast war, there was no continent in the Wilderness.

According to the description of the leader of the Feather Dragons, the Wood Spirit Stones in the water could be preserved, so Ye Chen determined that the Life and Death Wood would not grow in the water.

At that time, the Life and Death Wood should be in the sky. The connection between it and the Wind God appeared at this moment.
