Chapter 171: Chapter 171: An Existence More Sacred Than the Mother Tree!
Feng Ping was doing this for the first time.
The moment his figure passed through the spaceship, the vast universe came rushing at him instantaneously. This was a world starkly different from the Mother Planet, where countless burning plants grew and danced upon the land. The entire planet seemed like a living entity, while the Desert Tower Civilization’s war machines still occasionally streaked by not far away, the booming sounds endlessly thundering across the land, and flames carrying twisted heat waves swept through the environment wave after wave.
The scene was incredibly awe-inspiring.
Ever since acquiring the Talent known as “Illusion Body,” Feng Ping often felt as though he was disconnected from the world.
It was as if nothing that happened in the world could affect him.
But it wasn’t until this moment that he clearly understood how grandiose and massive the current era was.
A place like this was truly the stage where he belonged!
Feng Ping sped toward the ground, moving silently through the world like a ghost.
And at this moment, Shen Hao indeed had his gaze fixed on him.
He faintly sensed that Feng Ping’s mentality seemed to have undergone some change.
But that was normal.
A few months ago, Feng Ping was just a college student, but humans have strong plasticity. Now Feng Ping indeed possessed qualities worth cultivating, and Shen Hao also believed he would rapidly mature and make outstanding contributions to Human Civilization.

However, Shen Hao’s current focus was largely on this planet.
He certainly felt a significant surprise.
Originally, he had thought that as long as the civilization on this planet had the basic Quality, as long as they were like the Siti people, willing to integrate, willing to submit, able to bring benefits to Human Civilization, they would have ample reason to intervene in this war.
But Shen Hao had never imagined that this civilization would have cultivated a “Spirit of Nature”!
Yes, a “Spirit of Nature,” or at least a similar existence.
This was a concept that existed both in the Cultivation System and in the Magic System.
In the Cultivation System, it referred to the “Mountain God,” an innate Mountain Spirit that merged with the entire mountain range, wielding authority, or even a direct birth from the mountains as an Innate Spirit.
In the Magic System, too, they spoke of the Spirit of Nature, even the Innate God Spirit!
Such beings, within the Extraordinary Domain, conceptually surpassed ordinary creatures. Put simply, it was “status,” with immense potential for growth.
Shen Hao himself was a representative of “status.” After acquiring the Mythical Talent “Sovereign,” his status soared to a level parallel to the universe, so he couldn’t be clearer about the role of “status.”
It was practically the embodiment of potential and strength!
Look at this “Spirit of Nature” before us.
By Level, the “Spirit of Nature” on this planet had only been born not long ago, not even reaching the Extraordinary Second Stage, but look at its performance!
Even though it was drawing power from the survivors of this civilization, with just that little bit, it could survive the madness of nuclear explosions, and it could barely launch a retaliation. Despite the vast disparity in strength, it still held on, delivering no small loss to the Desert Tower Civilization.
“Moreover, it is a newly born consciousness, not yet fully matured,” pondered Shen Hao, his mind racing, “The Desert Tower Civilization clearly does not excel in the Extraordinary Domain. Had they understood the value of the Spirit of Nature, they wouldn’t have caused destruction in this manner. But, this is good.”
Yes, Shen Hao had already decided to transplant this Spirit of Nature to the Mother Planet.
It matched perfectly with the World Tree!
He wasn’t worried about being unable to control it; not to mention that the consciousness of this Spirit of Nature was obviously nascent and confused, his Talent “Sovereign” alone dispelled any concerns in this regard.
If this world’s civilization turns out to be decent, he would take them along, but if not, taking away just the Spirit of Nature would still be a massive gain.
But he had to act quickly.
The Desert Tower Civilization was indeed powerful. How their technology fared wasn’t entirely clear as yet, but the number of arms was astonishing: all sorts of weapons, war machines, teeming and innumerable.
The way things looked, even the Spirit of Nature wouldn’t last long.
At this time, Feng Ping also seemed to sense the urgency of the situation.
He quickened his speed a notch.
Heading straight into the ground, “Illusion Body” allowed him to ignore obstacles and move at an extremely fast pace.
At the same time, the Senya people were once again gathering for a meeting.
“The Mother Tree has given us a Revelation; there may be other civilizations that could be our Saviors,” Jokah announced to everyone, allowing no time for commotion or discussion, he further inquired, “Has any tribe seen a spaceship different from that of the enemy’s?”
The leaders of the Senya people looked at each other in confusion, all denying it.
“Then search for it! Spread the pollen out, try your hardest to find it!”
The Senya people were quite primitive in some respects, but in the path they pursued as Plant Priests, they also had their unique aspects.
For example, communication: using plants that spread throughout the world, messages could be quickly transmitted to every place where plants existed.
Or scouting: certain special pollen, once scattered into the air, could reflect back any images of all it touched.
“`
In addition to these, there are all kinds of magical effects.
Powerful Priests could even cultivate plants according to their needs, producing the desired specimens.
The corrosive fluid plants targeting aerial enemies were urgently cultivated with the power of the Life Mother Tree and spread across the planet on a large scale.
If the Desert Tower Civilization hadn’t started with a stealth attack using nuclear weapons to massively damage the natural environment and the roots of the Life Mother Tree, and had instead fought head-on, the Senya Civilization might not have fallen to such a state.
At this moment, all they could do was place their hopes on the Savior revealed by the Life Mother Tree.
However, just as everyone was preparing to contact their respective tribes, Jokah, who sat in the lead seat, suddenly grabbed his great bow and stared intently at the center of the room!
The rest of the people did not react immediately, but when they looked towards the center, their pupils shrank, and some even turned pale with horror, retreating several steps!
Because, right in the center, there stood an individual who was clearly not a Senya person, standing there so quietly!
No one knew when he had appeared, nor how he had appeared.
You must know, those present were all leaders or Priests from various tribes of the Senya Civilization, all Chosen Ones, the strongest group in their entire civilization!
And yet, they were completely unaware that someone else had infiltrated their midst.
Even now, when they could see him with their own eyes, their perception was still void of any presence, as if he were merely air.
This abrupt and eerie scene made the already tense Senya people feel a great sense of unease.
However, they did not know that Feng Ping felt nervous at this moment too.
This could be a Centaur!
Or perhaps a Cervitaur? Or a Faun?
He hadn’t expected the civilization on this planet to look like this.
At first glance, it was stunning.
However, Feng Ping also knew what he needed to do. He tensed his expression and tried his best to appear calm.>
“I am an Envoy from Human Civilization,” he said slowly, “and the translation magic artifacts on me conveyed my words clearly into everyone’s ears. “We have discovered this civilizational war initiated by the Desert Tower Civilization, and we have sent an Envoy to understand what is happening here.”
Human Civilization, Desert Tower Civilization?
The people present were not fools.
After the initial tension and unease, they looked at each other and quickly grasped the implications of his words.
Some Senya people even immediately thought of the Revelation, their expressions changing from tension to surprise filled with immense hope!
Could this be the civilization mentioned in the Revelation? The civilization that the Mother Tree believes could potentially save their world?
However, Jokah, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke first: “Envoy of Human Civilization, I welcome you on behalf of the Senya Civilization, but before all else, I want to know, how did you find us here?”
Jokah’s expression was very serious.
Some Senya people also came to their senses.
Indeed, this was a grave issue.
This place was their most central command post, gathering the strongest among their civilization, and almost all the important figures from every tribe were here.
Yet, during such a phase of war, this underground location, several kilometers beneath the surface, had been discovered!
If the enemy had found them, or if this Envoy before them informed the enemy of their situation here, they would face a catastrophic crisis.
But Feng Ping had already received instructions from Shen Hao.
With a tremor in his heart and as calmly as possible, he said, “Our President received a distress message from the divine beings of your civilization, and thus directed me to come here.”
After speaking, he lifted his right hand to his chest, where an engraving emerged, and a glimmer of starlight swirled in his pupils, his momentary Suppression overwhelming everyone!
Although it lasted only a brief instant, the engraving vanished and the starlight disappeared, yet in that moment, everyone could feel an indescribable authority and sacredness!
Even Jokah, who was imposing and serious, showed a look of disbelief at this moment.
The others were needless to say.
They were Senya people who were closest to the Life Mother Tree, naturally feeling its immense, world-enveloping presence.
That is why they had faith! That is what they worshipped! It was a power that transcended all life, even nature itself!
But in that instant just now.
What they felt was not the world, but the endless starry sky, the vast universe!
Even if they did not understand what it meant, one thing was clear.
That is—behind this Envoy stood an entity even more powerful and more sacred than the Life Mother Tree itself!
