Mystic Moon had been feeling sympathy for Lin Yuan the entire time he was in the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad.
They had left when it was almost time for the prize presentation of the Arts Stage, Martial Stage, and Martial Arts Stage.
The prize presentation should have been Lin Yuan’s moment of glory.
Unfortunately, Lin Yuan had no choice but to rush over to help Endless Summer undergo its Trial of World Creation.
It would take some time for Endless Summer to finish using the attack that had been split into hundreds of smaller attacks to temper the Enlightenment Law.
By the time Lin Yuan waited for Endless Summer to overcome the Trial of World Creation and rushed back to the Midnight Palace, the Martial Arts Stage’s prize presentation would be over.
Although the Moon Empress would be standing in his stead and he would still be able to accept all the prizes, Mystic Moon still felt that Lin Yuan had lost a moment to bask in his well-deserved spotlight.
Still, given Mystic Moon’s understanding of Lin Yuan, it was not unexpected for Lin Yuan to have made such a decision because he was a warm person that prioritized those he cared about.
Mystic Moon went on to say, “The Sky-Covering Weeping Willow is able to grow branches and foliage large enough to cover the sky because of the vast plant vitality and germination powers in its tree core.
“Even Creation Breed plant-type feys can’t consume the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core. If greed got the better of them and they tried to consume the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core, the plant-type fey would explode after being exposed to the plant energy in the tree core.
“Technically, Endless Summer should also be unable to absorb the tree core. But because of the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire, it’s now possible for Endless Summer to consume the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core. With the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire and the Trial of World Creation’s cleansing to provide balance, Endless Summer might be able to have three tree cores and form a triple-core cycle.
“A fey’s bloodline transforms drastically when it evolves to Creaton Breed. Endless Summer’s transformation will be even more radical with three tree cores. There’s even a possibility of the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire and Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s bloodlines combining to form a completely new type of fey.”
Mystic Moon’s explanation had been clear. Currently, Lin Yuan’s True Data was still unable to check on the spiritual ingredients inside a Creation Breed fey’s body.
But from Mystic Moon’s explanation, Lin Yuan now knew how important the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core was for Endless Summer since it even concerned the possible elevation of its bloodline.
Since the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core was so beneficial to Endless Summer, Lin Yuan was definitely going to obtain it.
The increase in Endless Summer’s power would also increase Sky City’s fighting power.
When Lin Yuan had arrived, he had asked this old woman what kind of villain she wanted to become.
If the old woman had said that she was going to attack the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer, Lin Yuan would have asked Mystic Moon to take down the old woman. He would not even have given the old woman a chance to plead for mercy.
Killing only led to an endless cycle of further killing. This principle had held true since the start of time.
Lin Yuan had allowed the old woman to live this long because she had decided against attacking the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer in the end.
At that moment, the silver-haired old woman lifted her head. Her sweat-covered face made her look rather pathetic.
“Young Lord, I went through much trouble to get my hands on the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core, and I’ve held onto it for decades. It’s the most precious treasure in Cage of Brahma Insects,” said the old woman with utmost respect.
Mystic Moon scoffed and said, “Why am I unaware that you’re a member of the Radiant Moon Palace? Otherwise, what gives you the right to call him Young Lord?”
Mystic Moon’s cold eyes made the old woman’s expression shrivel up.
Ever since Mystic Moon had released his terrifying aura, the Dominate Sky Snake Dove had not dared to move a muscle. It was unknown what level of Creation Breed Mystic Moon had reached. Maybe, he had even reached a higher level.
The old woman anxiously stammered, “L… Lord, I didn’t attack at all. I only came to retrieve the Kill Food Worm that had escaped. The Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core is my way of apologizing for my careless provocation. I’m willing to take full responsibility for the Kill Food Worm causing the Trial of World Creation Cloud to release the second attack prematurely. You can have the Kill Food Worm and deal with it as you see fit.”
The old woman’s voice had been rather hoarse due to her heartache and fear.
The Kill Food Worm had been the old woman’s most precious treasure. If she could not use it to seek the Moon Empress’ disciple’s forgiveness, Cage of Brahma Insects would punish her severely for her mistake.
If the Moon Empress caught wind of this incident and became enraged, Cage of Brahma Insects would immediately be pushed out of the ranks of the top three top factions that it had been occupying for the past century.
There was even a chance that they would fall so low that they would become stuck between the level of veteran faction and top faction like Condense Fairy Orchard.
Despite being one of Cage of Brahma Insects’ Elders who had seen it being built from the ground up, she would become a sinner in their eyes.
All the glory she had worked hard her entire life to achieve would have been flushed down the toilet with her own two hands. The anguish would be worse than actually dying.
At that moment, the young man stretched out his bony hands to receive the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core from her.
He tossed the tree core to the tree that was undergoing the Trial of World Creation and shouted, “Endless Summer, try to use the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire to temper the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core and combine it with the tree cores in your body. If it’s possible, try to unlock the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s bloodline during the Trial of World Creation and use your own bloodline to absorb the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s bloodline.”
Endless Summer had been devoting all its energy to gathering the spliced Enlightenment Law. It could feel all the vitality in its body seeping out, making it weaker with every passing second.
It had not been paying attention to the silver-haired old woman and Mystic Moon’s words.
But when Endless Summer heard Lin Yuan’s shout, it managed to force itself to catch what he said, and it saw a tree core with overwhelming plant energy sailing over to it.
Endless Summer manipulated its roots to shoot out of the ground and caught the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core.
Endless Summer’s body that had almost been split in half shook as it summoned the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire tree core and its original tree core.
It pressed the three tree cores together and used the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire tree core to cover the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core.
The moment that the Lifeform Sacrificial Fire tree core came into contact with the Sky-Covering Weeping Willow’s tree core, the pinkish-purple leaves turned to ash and limitless vitality radiated from Endless Summer’s withered branches.
At that moment, the Trial of World Creation Cloud released its second attack.
At the same time, bright silver patterns appeared all over Mystic Moon’s forehead, face, and palms. His eyes turned dark silver, and an enormous silver beast soon stretched across the sky.
