All Gods: Starting with Two Families

Chapter 11 The Fountain of LifeHis Divine Thought returned to the sand-filled Divine Realm, leaving behind the noise and undercurrents of the Orc Royal Court gathering.

Zhou Zheng’s gaze immediately fell upon the crowded oasis. The newly born Eagle People were searching for a place to settle in a daze, while the Snake People watched their winged kin with caution and curiosity.

Space had become the most pressing issue at hand.

Without the slightest hesitation, his Divine Thought instantly connected with that a-rank voucher bearing the special mark of the Orc Royal Court.

The voucher transformed into a stream of light within his consciousness, activating the Plane Shop connected to the core of the Orc God System.

A stream of information about a dazzling array of wondrous items washed over him, and Zhou Zheng locked onto his target with precision.

Exchange! [Spring of Life (Miniature)]!

A gentle, vibrant emerald light bloomed within the core of his Divine Thought.

In the next moment, the space beside the [mist-locked pond willow] that maintained everything in the center of the oasis rippled slightly.

A crystal-clear spring, no larger than a washbasin, appeared out of thin air!

The spring was naturally built from simple bluestone. What surged within was not ordinary spring water, but a nectar that radiated a dense aura of Life and shimmered with emerald starlight!

Gurgle... gurgle...

The faint yet clear sound of surging spring water rang out, breaking the noise of the oasis. A fresh, vibrant aura spread out instantly like invisible ripples.

The Snake People and Eagle People instinctively stopped their movements, greedily breathing in this aura that seemed capable of cleansing the Soul.

Change followed!

The first to sense the change were the two mist-locked pond willows rooted there!

Their gnarled branches seemed to be instantly infused with majestic vitality, and the azure halo flowing throughout their bodies suddenly brightened. Thousands of drooping emerald branches swayed and grew wildly without any wind.

As the branches grew wildly, the dense white mist exhaled by the willow was no longer in that thin state that barely maintained the oasis’s boundaries.

The white mist, as if it had gained a source of Life, erupted and expanded outward with a surge! It swept across the scorching sand like a white wave!

Chiii—!

Everywhere the white mist passed, the scorching gravel seemed to be cooled and solidified by an invisible force.

Though it could not immediately transform into fertile soil, the lethal high temperature that could char flesh was completely blocked! The dry air also seemed to become a bit moister.

Ten li! Twenty li! Thirty li!

The white mist was like a torrent breaking a dam, expanding outward unstoppably! It pushed the originally narrow oasis boundaries out by more than ten kilometers!

”Hiss?!”

”Skree—?!”

After a brief moment of shock, a heaven-shaking cheer erupted!

The irritability caused by the crowding vanished instantly; new space meant more possibilities for survival!

The followers excitedly prostrated themselves toward the Spring of Life, and the pure, fanatical Power Of Faith gathered into Zhou Zheng’s Divine Thought like a trickling stream.

Zhou Zheng threw the large quantities of food, herbs, and Water Source Crystals he had traded for into the oasis, piling them onto the newly added open ground.

Looking at the refreshed Divine Realm with its ample space and feeling the surging faith, he didn’t feel much relief in his heart.

His gaze turned toward the golden sea of sand outside the oasis, which remained endless, deathly silent, and scorching. This was the price for the sand worms’ existence, the accompanying curse of the miraculous Spice.

”Sand worms... Spice... Spring of Life...” Zhou Zheng’s Divine Thought swept across the entire Divine Realm as he sighed inwardly.

”The Spice improved the followers’ talent but locked down the space for development. The Spring of Life can expand the oasis, but it cannot change the nature of the sand worms devouring Life and solidifying the desert...”

The Divine Realms of other newborn deities, even if barren, were complete lands that could be gradually transformed and utilized.

Yet his Divine Realm had over ninety percent of its area occupied by this lethal desert, with the usable space strictly confined within the range of the oasis’s mist.

It was like a prisoner who possessed mountains of gold and silver but was trapped within a small space.
