I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Law Artifact! The Flame of Civilization Still Burns On!

Did equipment drop?

Lin Yi looked at the prismatic shard that fell after Yikes’s death, a glint of joy in his heart.

Of course, an Abyssal Demon Emperor not dropping equipment after being defeated would be odd.

But just as Lin Yi was about to take a few steps forward to scrutinize the shard more closely,

a sense of foreboding surged within him!

As if taking a few more steps would lead him to some great terror!

Lin Yi trusted his instincts.

This instinct had helped him evade many risks before.

Moreover, given the Heart of the Swarm instance and his battle with Yikes, Lin Yi felt that without caution and decisiveness, he might actually fail this instance.

He hadn’t yet received the instance completion notice.

This meant everything wasn’t truly over.

He couldn’t afford to be careless!

This prismatic shard...

Is it one of Yikes’s skills?

Could he not be dead?

Is this a trap?

Lin Yi stepped back a few paces, choosing to observe from the periphery.

Then he saw the spot where the prismatic shard lay, staining with a vibrant green like the refraction of jade.

Then, this patch of green spread at a rapid pace.

Lin Yi’s eyes flashed, transforming into a streak of lightning.

He teleported to the sky several kilometers away.

From the sky, looking down, under the influence of that green light, Lin Yi saw everything on the ground below.

The soil, gravel, dust.

All began to transform.

The soil turned into roots.

The gravel became branches.

The dust adorned with green leaves.

A newborn World Tree took root, sprouted, and grew again before Lin Yi’s incredulous gaze...

If Lin Yi hadn’t retreated,

and had chosen instead to pick up that prismatic shard,

then at this moment, he too would have been assimilated as part of this World Tree!

This means of creating life from nothing, sculpting life from sand and dust, was terrifying beyond compare!

The newborn World Tree grew to a towering height at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lin Yi noticed that as the World Tree grew upward, several branches were also growing towards him.

At the same time, Lin Yi sensed an inexplicable feeling of joy.

To be precise, it was joyful, yet interspersed with gratitude.

The next moment, Lin Yi saw those branches of the World Tree stretching towards him.

In an instant, they bloomed with green flowers, which then fused into a single, translucent green fruit hanging from the branch.

The fragrance was intoxicating!

Lin Yi was astonished to find that the injuries left by being pierced through by Yikes’s death ray were completely healed just by smelling this aroma!

The World Tree’s new branch was like a hand, presenting this fruit to Lin Yi.

This was its gesture of thanks.

Lin Yi gazed at the fruit, and the feedback from the Eye of Omniscience shocked him immensely.

Law...

Immortal?!

Lin Yi drew in a sharp breath.

He originally thought the prismatic shard dropped by Yikes should be a treasure.

But he didn’t expect it to be a treasure involving a law-tier concept like immortality!

This was leagues beyond any mere equipment.

Lin Yi felt his hand trembling slightly.

He reached out.

The Immortal Fruit hanging on the World Tree’s branch gently fell into his hand.

In the next moment, Lin Yi felt an incomparably pure life energy, flowing through the Immortal Fruit and merging into his body.

Instantly, the fruit was soul-bound with Lin Yi.

Most spiritual objects are born of nature.

The worthy possess them.

And few spiritual objects recognize a master.

Those that do are extraordinary!

At this moment, the Immortal Fruit, filled with gratitude and appreciation from the World Tree, recognized Lin Yi as its master.

Lin Yi stored the Immortal Fruit in his storage space.

He found that even when stored, the fruit’s effects remained!

Lin Yi saw his life value cap triple instantly!

The abnormal state effect resistance also rose from a fixed 1% to 61%!

The purifying effect every 10 seconds refreshed automatically as well.

This is unbelievable!

Lin Yi was filled with ecstatic joy!

This was a celestial tool that didn’t occupy an equipment slot!

So, there exist these law-based tools in the world!

And their effects are this exaggerated!

Lin Yi no longer cared that Yikes didn’t drop equipment.

This fruit was truly the priceless treasure.

Now Lin Yi also understood why Yikes could die repeatedly but always be reborn.

He must have unintentionally possessed a trace of the ’Immortal’ power.

As these thoughts crossed Lin Yi’s mind, his vision suddenly blurred.

He then lost control of his body.

A scene slowly unfolded before Lin Yi.

Viewing from a god’s perspective, he overlooked the entire Istena World.

The newborn World Tree had grown again.

The enormous canopy was like a sky umbrella, blessing all things!

Emerald rain of life sprinkled from the World Tree’s canopy, flowing across the Istena land.

Healing the scars left by the swarm.

Lin Yi understood.

This was similar to when he completed a game on Earth.

The ending animation created by the developers.

The scene before him depicted the events that took place after the complete end of the Heart of the Swarm instance, as revealed by the Blue Star Celestial Dao.

The scene shifted.

The green raindrops drifted towards a certain canyon.

In the canyon, over three thousand half-human, half-insect monsters encased in ice were moistened by the raindrops.

The insect traits on them were washed away by the rain.

Countless vitality poured into their bodies, extending their lifespan for many years.

Meanwhile, the scene changed once more.

”Wah~”

”Wah~”

In a dimly lit basement, a woman lay on a bed, panting heavily.

Beside her, a newborn life let out its first cries.

Simultaneously, across the entire Istena, beneath the soil, in the forests, inside lakes.

New life was quietly being nurtured.

Everything seemed reborn!

Watching the newborn dawn, the three thousand crystal-clear statues glistened with dazzling light.

Then, Lin Yi abandoned the thought of unfreezing them.

The immortal rain brought life and hope.

Wounds need time to heal, life needs time to be nurtured.

All of this required time to progress.

Let them continue to wait.

The ice he released would lead them to a new future.

They would rebuild their homes in the new world’s haven.

[The shadows of the swarm disperses, the flame of civilization still burns...]
