Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

234: Chapter 234 The Dragon Blood Tree’s Growth Surges! Second TierThe reason Ye Yang killed the Black Flood Dragon was that he knew it wouldn’t tell him much information.

Furthermore, even if the Black Flood Dragon did reveal that information, it would still have to die; Ye Yang’s intuition told him the creature had already realized this.

There was another important reason that led Ye Yang to this decision.

”This high-evolution-level Black Flood Dragon must know a lot, but he’s not the only creature who knows this information!”

He glanced down at Little White Fox Ah Li, who was circling the Black Flood Dragon’s corpse and taking photos.

On Planet Blue, there were now many creatures emerging from underground source stones.

He believed that once Little White Fox Ah Li’s evolution level increased, the information known by the Black Flood Dragon would also awaken in her mind.

It was simply a matter of how fast or slow they would acquire this knowledge.

But because of its identity as a Mixed-blood Flood Dragon, the Black Flood Dragon had become Ye Yang’s trophy and was destined to die.

He glanced sideways at the dragon blood tree standing on the mountain peak; he wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he felt the dragon blood tree was emitting a faint sense of longing.

”My body is longing for the Black Flood Dragon’s flesh...”

As Ye Yang stared at the Black Flood Dragon’s corpse, a strong desire welled up from deep within his body once again.

”Whew...”

Ye Yang took a deep breath and brought his sharp claws to the massive corpse of the Black Flood Dragon.

His golden claws were like sharp alloy scissors, tearing through the flesh of the Black Flood Dragon’s abdomen.

”So tough...”

”Even though the cutting speed is slow, I can still cut open the Black Flood Dragon’s body...”

It took Ye Yang over half an hour to cut through the abdomen of the Black Flood Dragon’s massive three-hundred-meter body before he finally broke open a bloody hole.

Groping inside, he saw a pale-gold internal organ roughly the size of Ye Yang’s own body.

”Fortunately, the Black Flood Dragon’s core heart wasn’t affected during the battle.”

Seeing the heart perfectly preserved, Ye Yang was pleasantly surprised; not only was the Black Flood Dragon’s exterior severely damaged, but even its internal organs and bones had been shattered.

Almost every other internal organ except for the heart was crushed.

Ye Yang exerted some effort to pull the massive pale-gold heart out of the body, and a faint, refreshing fragrance immediately filled the air.

This scent made the nearby Little White Fox Ah Li, Panda Xiong Er, and Monkey King Wukong feel refreshed; even Ye Yang was drawn in by this aura.

Ye Yang swallowed hard and scanned the expressions of his subordinates around him.

”Don’t worry, there will definitely be a share of this Mixed-blood Flood Dragon’s flesh for you...”

”However, don’t even dream about this Black Flood Dragon’s heart...”

Panda Xiong Er had already crawled out from behind the dragon blood tree, his panda eyes filled with confusion.

He then watched as the boss carried that delicious-looking pale-gold heart to the dragon blood tree that gathered spiritual energy...

Ye Yang placed the massive pale-gold heart beneath the trunk of the dragon blood tree.

Instantly, the seventy-meter-tall dragon blood tree shook violently; before Ye Yang could even cut open the heart, the massive pale-gold organ shrank visibly to the naked eye as deep golden blood soaked into the ground, converging toward the roots of the tree.

The entire thick trunk of the dragon blood tree began to sway violently, causing the mountain peak to tremble slightly.

Seventy meters... seventy-five meters... eighty meters!

The height of the trunk rose at a terrifying speed, and in the blink of an eye, it broke through the hundred-meter mark!

After reaching a height of one hundred meters, the rapid growth slowed down, finally settling at a height of one hundred and twenty meters.

”The Black Flood Dragon’s heart blood only let the dragon blood tree grow to this extent...”

Although it seemed the Black Flood Dragon’s heart blood had less of an effect than the Snake Mother’s heart, Ye Yang knew that the dragon blood tree had undergone a fundamental transformation.

On the mountain peak, there had originally been a layer of spiritual white mist covering it for a long time; now, distant spiritual energy was being drawn in by the dragon blood tree, surging toward the peak in a steady stream.

In just a few minutes, the concentration of spiritual energy on the peak rose to a staggering level!

Ye Yang took a moment to sense it...

”The concentration of spiritual energy on the peak has increased by at least threefold!”

”Incredible...”

The spiritual energy concentration was still slowly rising and would surely reach an even more shocking level soon.

Ye Yang looked at the soaring dragon blood tree, his golden pupils constricting; he clearly sensed a special aura emanating from the tree before him.

Ancient, weathered, simple... and distant.

”The dragon blood tree seems to have undergone some subtle changes...”

A light flashed deep within his golden pupils!

”Detection Spell!”

Name: dragon blood tree

Tier: Second Tier

Description: A rare spiritual plant and precious tree, extremely high rarity! Generally, only a sapling watered with the heart blood of a dragon with extremely high bloodline concentration has a one-in-ten-thousand chance of evolving into a dragon blood tree. Currently at the Second Tier, it can bear dozens of Second Tier dragon blood fruits per year. The growth speed of the dragon blood tree and the speed and quality of its fruit production are related to its own state and the surrounding environment.

[Notice: You have come into contact with a Second Tier ancient spiritual plant for the first time, successfully unlocking the system’s tier data!]

”Second Tier?”

A trace of confusion flashed in Ye Yang’s golden pupils.

As if sensing his internal confusion, a piece of information appeared in his mind.

After absorbing this information, Ye Yang understood that ancient spiritual plants also had classifications for their levels; however, unlike the evolution levels of creatures, the levels of ancient spiritual plants were called ’Tiers’, starting from the First Tier.

”The essence blood from the Black Flood Dragon’s heart allowed the dragon blood tree to grow directly into a Second Tier ancient spiritual plant...”

Not only that, but Ye Yang also noticed that the flower buds on the dragon blood tree had already bloomed; Ye Yang was very familiar with this process, and it wouldn’t be long before the tree produced a large number of Second Tier dragon blood fruits.

Ye Yang nodded inwardly.

Beside him, Panda Xiong Er was startled by the sudden growth of the dragon blood tree, his dark panda eyes full of bewilderment.

He didn’t understand why the tree had suddenly skyrocketed; he tilted his head and sniffed, finding that the spiritual substances in the air had become even denser.

While Little White Fox Ah Li and Monkey King Wukong were shocked, they were also excited.

Because they knew that after their boss hunted this powerful creature, he would become even stronger.

Ye Yang raised his golden claws and walked under the dragon blood tree, which had now completely changed.

The bark was gnarled and vigorous, and dragon-shaped patterns appeared on every leaf; from a distance, the dragon blood tree looked like a giant dragon crouching on the ground.

”I wonder what surprises the Black Flood Dragon’s heart can bring me...”

The Black Flood Dragon’s heart, having lost its essence, had shrunk significantly from its original size of dozens of meters to just a few meters.

Ye Yang opened his beak and swallowed it whole into his stomach.
