I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart Chapter 178 – Feathered Serpent Spirit

Right now, the will of the feathered serpent was still present, so Lin Yao had two options.

One option was to obliterate the feathered serpent consciousness and allow his own consciousness to settle in it, just like the angel spirit essence. This was the safest option. By then, the feathered serpent would be Lin Yao, but Lin Yao would not be the feathered serpent.

However, there were many advantages and disadvantages as well. A sacred tree could only host one main soul. After the soul settled into the feathered serpent, it would become the incarnation of Lin Yao, which could not be changed. At the same time, if the feathered serpent was destroyed, Lin Yao's soul would also suffer severe damage, which was similar to damaging part of his soul.

Another option was to simply establish contact. The tree nurtured the universe, and the universe protected the sacred tree. Lin Yao could use the Tree of Heaven Punishment to establish contact with the feathered serpent, making it similar to a spiritualist's pet.

Lin Yao could create many such connections that were reliant on the sacred tree. At the same time, Lin Yao would not suffer any losses when the feathered serpent died.

However, this way, the feathered serpent's consciousness would not disappear, and at the same time, Lin Yao also needed to provide for the feathered serpent so it would grow. Otherwise, it might leave.

'I will choose that.'

After frowning and thinking for a while, Lin Yao finally chose the second option.

'The gold-level warlord's ranking is too low. Powerful existences like Che Zhengyi could easily kill the opponent with one sword move right away. It would be a waste to use such a creature as the main soul. It is still alright if it is the direct heir of the feathered serpent god.'

Lin Yao had made a decision. Soon, the Tree of Heaven Punishment established a soul connection with the feathered serpent. The feathered serpent spirit essence would eventually serve as the guardian of Lin Yao's Tree of Heaven Punishment.

At the same time, Lin Yao also gained some understanding of the feathered serpent spirit essence through the established connection.

Lin Yao's face fell after he had a clear understanding of the situation.

This was an unlucky creature. After breaking into this world from another world, it had been beheaded by powerhouses because it had provoked the human race. Its soul had suffered huge injuries and lost most of its memories. In fact, its IQ was also affected.

It was stupid and foolish now. This was also why Lin Yao could deal with it at will, and it felt no sense of danger.

At the same time, it had lost most of its power, as it lacked a physical body.

Fortunately, the sacred tree was exquisite, and after temporarily integrating it with the Tree of Heaven Punishment, Lin Yao knew what to do next.

'I will make use of the power of the Tree of Heaven Punishment and the Celestial Tree to destroy its spirit essence and memory. I will then extract the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning from it. I will combine this power with the power of the Tree of Heaven Punishment to form a new feathered serpent spirit.

'This method is quite good.'

After making a decision, Lin Yao went out again to look for Senior Sister Jiang Rong.

“What are you doing?”

As the number of girls around Lin Yao increased, her attitude toward Lin Yao was getting worse.

Lin Yao had to endure her bad attitude. It was true that he had many desires and had let Senior Sister Jiang Rong down.

Fortunately, she did not mix feelings with work, so she quickly approved Lin Yao's request.

“Are you telling me to adjust the electric current intensity according to your physical condition? I understand.”

Although it was only a day afterward, Lin Yao, who was a super-genius, was being treated very well. He had still been outside to soak up sunlight yesterday, but today, the glass room he needed had been built.

There was a chair in the middle of the glass room. Lin Yao took off most of his clothes and sat on the chair, nodding at Jiang Rong and telling her to turn on the electricity.

However, this time, Lin Yao did not pay attention to the electric current. When the electric current rushed into his body, the Tree of Heaven Punishment suddenly trembled in his Sea of Consciousness. A large amount of the power of thunder and lightning poured into the remnant soul of the feathered serpent.

The power of mild thunder and lightning was healing, while the power of violent thunder and lightning was destructive.

The sudden burst of the power of thunder and lightning completely destroyed the silly feathered serpent's remnant soul. At the same time, power of light was emitted from the distant Celestial Tree, purifying the brilliance and illuminating the feathered serpent's remnant soul, thus cleansing its memory and impurities.

The purifying light emitted by the Celestial Tree was indeed very powerful. About 10 minutes later, all the impurities and memories in the feathered serpent's remnant soul disappeared. What remained were the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning and a pure soul, both looking like a hazy, thick fog.

While doing this, Lin Yao did not feel moved. Feathered serpents that grew up in nature were not gentle creatures. They had personalities similar to beasts. They were considered overlords in their world. When it had entered this world, the serpent had even intended to attack humans but had been attacked by humans instead. This was why it had been beheaded by a powerhouse. Lin Yao was the least hesitant about destroying such a beast.

However, at the destruction of the feathered serpent's soul, something unexpected happened. After combining it with the Tree of Heaven Punishment, he was surprised to find that the Tree of Heaven Punishment could absorb the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, which aided in its growth.

Lin Yao was shocked when he first learned all this, but he soon remembered that the sacred tree could not only absorb the power of nature to grow but also some power from different substances, such as the crystal stone. Lin Yao's Tree of Light made its first advancement with the help of the spar of light.

The current progress of the Tree of Heaven Punishment was 3,000/100,000. Lin Yao had gained 3,000 points from the in-depth electric shock that he had undergone for half a day yesterday, as well as the night of shallow electric shock. In other words, electricity could also accelerate the growth of the Tree of Heaven Punishment.

Since these methods could accelerate its growth, the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning that was associated with the Tree of Heaven Punishment was naturally feasible.

Right now, Lin Yao had to make a decision. He had to choose between absorbing the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning for the sacred tree to grow or continuing to recast the soul of the feathered serpent.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yao thought of the current situation and finally picked the second option.

'The first option is really good, as it can improve my body's strength. After purifying the feathered serpent's remnant soul, two powers are left. One will be the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and the other the power of soul. If I choose to absorb the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, the power of soul will be wasted.'

Lin Yao did not have the ability to absorb the power of soul, and after it was severely injured by humans, the spirit essence left by the feathered serpent was actually a remnant soul. However, this was, after all, a gold-level monster. The remnant soul's grading was also close to a silver grading. If Lin Yao formed the feathered serpent spirit, he would have a fighter who was at least a peak warlord with gold-level grading as its highest limit. This would enhance Lin Yao's strength at this stage.

At the same time, even if he formed the feathered serpent spirit, the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning would still be his. If he was dissatisfied with the feathered serpent spirit, he could still extract this power by killing it.

However, after absorbing it, it could not be separated from it, while it could be reversed after it was recast. Lin Yao quickly made a decision.

'I hope you won't let me down.'

As Lin Yao whispered, the Tree of Heaven Punishment quivered, and the power of soul and the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning was absorbed by the top of the tree. A special power emerged from the Tree of Heaven Punishment and poured into the feathered serpent spirit.

What surprised Lin Yao was that, in addition to the power of Heavenly Thunder, the Good and Evil Distinguishment ability also filled it.

'Is it obtaining wisdom?'

While feeling the influence of the power of Good and Evil Distinguishment ability on the feathered serpent spirit, Lin Yao also recast the feathered serpent spirit. He felt saddened that, due to the special power gushing out of the Tree of Heaven Punishment, the tree that was surrounded by lightning and thunder looked sluggish. It pained him further to see that the development of the sacred tree was actually declining.

3,000, 2,900, 2,100… 1,200.

'Damn, after so much effort, if the outcome is unsatisfactory, then you are doomed.'

Lin Yao broke the remnant soul and purified the original memory and impurities in the soul with the power of light. He made use of the Tree of Heaven Punishment's power of Heavenly Thunder and the Good and Evil Distinguishment ability to recast the serpent spirit.

While consuming his own power, he also had electrode patches attached to his body, where a steady stream of electricity was constantly flowing in.

This was a normal in-depth development step. However, Jiang Rong, who had been asked by Lin Yao to observe his physical condition, quickly discovered that Lin Yao was not using electricity to deeply stimulate his body this time. There seemed to be a bottomless pit in his body, which was constantly absorbing the electric current.

'Is that why you wanted me to be here? To increase the current?'

It did not occur to Jiang Rong to ask about the reason behind Lin Yao's actions. She just observed Lin Yao's body with the help of the equipment. Seeing that he was able to take it, Jiang Rong increased the power, and more electricity flowed into his body.

Without a doubt, the energy was absorbed by the Tree of Heaven Punishment, which then nurtured the serpent soul that was being recast.

Electricity was the energy that both the serpent spirit and the Tree of Heaven Punishment could absorb, and it did not cost much. No, it should be said that Lin Yao could easily afford it. The influx of large amounts of electricity reduced the pressure on the Tree of Heaven Punishment, and the feathered serpent spirit at the top became even stronger. A huge thunder and lightning light cluster appeared on top of the Tree of Heaven Punishment.

The electricity flow lasted for more than three hours, and a huge amount of electricity was absorbed by Lin Yao. In fact, his body tissue had burnt marks due to the excessive current flowing into his body.

Fortunately, the Armored Body Of Light ability of the Celestial Tree was put to good use again. The Armored Body Of Light, which had reached LV7, and the healing light contained therein allowed Lin Yao's body to quickly recover and supported it for more than three hours.

After more than three hours, the nurturing process of the feathered serpent spirit would soon be successful.

Right now, the thunder and lightning light cluster at the top of the Tree of Heaven Punishment was very huge, and a feathered serpent was swimming comfortably in it.

When the load reached its limit, there was a loud bang, and the thunder and lightning light cluster burst. A serpent hissed cheerfully in Lin Yao's Sea of Consciousness.

The explosion of the thunder and lightning light cluster made Lin Yao's Sea Of Consciousness sway. Fortunately, there was the Celestial Tree there to stabilize it. Although the Celestial Tree could not be exposed to others, it was useful when it came to calming down the Sea of Consciousness. A burst of light swept through it, and it was stabilized.

In fact, the feathered serpent spirit calmed down thanks to the brilliance as well.

Afterward, without waiting for Lin Yao to call, the feathered serpent spirit returned to the Tree of Heaven Punishment like a chick returning to its nest. It circled and swam around the Tree of Heaven Punishment, hissing cordially from time to time and using its slender body to wind itself around the Tree of Heaven Punishment, like a child playing with its mother.

'It's really been recast.'

Lin Yao was not surprised by the amicable relationship the feathered serpent spirit had with the tree. The Tree of Heaven Punishment had helped recast the feathered serpent spirit. According to human notions of family relationships, the newborn feathered serpent spirit was the child of the Tree of Heaven Punishment and the former feathered serpent spirit. It was natural that it treated the tree as its mother.

Lin Yao did not care about this. It had taken him a lot of effort to condense the feathered serpent spirit, so he was only interested in its abilities.

Lin Yao stared at the Tree of Heaven Punishment. Soon, its information and the creatures connected to it appeared in front of him.
