Above, as if responding to Ethan Chen’s sincere prayers, green light scattered from the branches and leaves of the Sophora Tree, merging into Ethan’s body.
Although it couldn’t help Ethan advance in his realm, it did make his Qi and Blood more active.
With more active Qi and Blood, his lifespan would naturally be longer.
Noah Ji felt a sense of admiration for this Chen Clan Chief who blindly trusted the Sacred Tree and remained steadfast.
Even though this blind faith seemed irrational to other clan members, Noah, who had inherited the will of the Sacred Tree of the clan, couldn’t make any judgment.
After Ethan left the Ancestral Hall, Noah turned his gaze to the snowflakes falling from the sky.
In his previous life, he had never seen such a beautiful scene.
To experience it up close, Noah even adjusted the temperature around him, allowing many snowflakes to fall on his branches and leaves.
Unfortunately, now that he was a tree, the thick bark prevented him from feeling as he once did, adding only a touch of melancholy.
After a while, Noah shifted his gaze and looked at his attribute panel.
【Name: Noah Ji】
【Race: Shadowy Sophora Tree】
【Vitality: 172.5】
【Supernatural Powers: Eye of Insight, Reversal Pill, One Leaf Hindrance, Soul Condensation, Armor Overlay, Scorched Earth】
【Techniques: Lunar Eclipse, Gathering Yin】
【Combat Skills: Grand Ancestor Long Fist】
【Qi and Blood: 35 (convertible to Vitality)】
【Spiritual Power: 50】
【Deduction Points: 11】
【Deductible】
【Status: Some people are alive, but they are already dead.】
Several days of sacrifices within the clan had restored his Vitality to abundance, and after absorbing the consciousness of the green bamboo, Noah’s vision had extended further.
Previously, he could only see where his roots extended, but now he could see the entire outline of the clan.
As his Vitality continued to increase, his expanding roots would naturally allow him to see even further.
However, the grand clan sacrifice had passed, and future sacrifices would only occur once a week.
Fortunately, Noah still had the Lunar Eclipse Technique. Given enough time, he could grow rapidly.
At Noah’s current absorption rate, he could absorb three points of Vitality each night. However, in recent days, Noah had used the Scorched Earth supernatural power to maintain the temperature within the clan.
Although it was simply letting the underground roots emit heat, Noah calculated that it would consume 0.1 Vitality every two hours.
In other words, maintaining it for a whole day would consume 0.6 Vitality.
Although not much, it would add up over time. Considering the particularly cold winter in Disordered Burial Mountain, Noah decided not to withdraw this supernatural power.
Now that the clan had no external threats, it was essential to ensure the clan’s rapid development.
If the weather was too cold, the clan members might not be motivated to do anything else.
Soon, Noah turned his gaze to the Deduction Points below.
In recent days, with the accumulation of a large amount of Blood Rice and the blood and flesh of fierce beasts, some ordinary people in the clan had successfully tempered their bodies and become warriors.
Although they were only in the early stages of Body Tempering, it still added a few Deduction Points for Noah.
However, they were already old, and their Qi and Blood were not abundant. Even if they barely entered the Body Tempering Realm, they couldn’t advance further.
But still, they were warriors, much stronger than ordinary people.
As Noah looked at the Deductible button, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.
Although these Deduction Points were only enough for double deductions, and single deductions could only be done twice, the somewhat bored Noah couldn’t resist.
High-multiple deductions could unlock rare maps, but single deductions seemed good too.
For instance, in his first deduction, which he remembered vividly, he had obtained the Lunar Eclipse Technique.
If he could do it again, he might have a chance to get another technique, which would be a significant boost for Noah!
This thought made Noah very tempted.
With nothing happening in the clan and the current snowfall rate, it wouldn’t take many days for the clan to be covered in thick snow.
In such weather, the clan shouldn’t encounter any danger, and he had plenty of Vitality, enough for another clan battle.
With this in mind, Noah no longer hesitated.
Considering that his goal in deduction was to obtain a technique similar to Lunar Eclipse, Noah decided to go for a single deduction to test the effect.
Moreover, having two chances seemed better than one.
【This deduction will consume 10 Qi and Blood, 5 Spiritual Power, and 5 Deduction Points. Continue?】
【Yes? No?】
Without giving Noah time to react, and without any marquee-like images, the moment he clicked “Yes,” the scene before him changed.
This made Noah inwardly complain.
Just a few points of Qi and Blood, and they wouldn’t even let him see.
【You were born in a dense forest! To become a Tower to the Sky as soon as possible, you began to grow diligently!】
As Noah complained inwardly and observed his surroundings, the prompt made him instantly alert.
If he remembered correctly, his first deduction, where he obtained the Lunar Eclipse Technique, also took place in a dense forest!
Could it be?
Was he about to get lucky?
Without the bonus from multiple deductions, Noah carried no abilities and was just a newly sprouted seedling, with nothing special about him.
As the subtitles faded, Noah began to carefully observe his surroundings, searching for the Spring and Autumn Cicada.
But after several rounds of searching, Noah found nothing.
However, thinking carefully, given his current size and height, even if he saw the Spring and Autumn Cicada, he probably couldn’t attract it.
Better to wait and see.
Time accelerated again, and Noah began to grow slowly. Before long, he was already half a person’s height.
As Noah grew, some movement came from the bushes not far from the dense forest.
This made Noah look over.
The first thing that appeared in Noah’s vision was a pair of bright white fangs. As the owner of the fangs approached, its full appearance was revealed.
It was a fierce beast Noah was quite familiar with, a Dark Gold Beast, but different in color from those in Disordered Burial Mountain.
In his previous life, it had another name: wild boar.
However, the Dark Gold Beast before him seemed to be at an exceptionally high realm, and even its dull eyes carried some intelligence.
But after reincarnation, Noah’s powerful consciousness didn’t come along, so he couldn’t discern its exact realm, only guessing based on its size.
After passing through the bushes, the Dark Gold Beast quickly approached Noah.
This made Noah feel uneasy.
Before Noah could react, the fangs of the Dark Gold Beast appeared before him.
The next moment, Noah’s vision went black, accompanied by some chewing sounds.
【The Dark Gold Beast found you delicious, you died!】
As the prompt disappeared, Noah’s vision changed again.
After devouring Noah, the Dark Gold Beast’s eyes became much brighter, and it looked around, seemingly searching for more seedlings.
Back in the Ancestral Hall, Noah couldn’t help but curse inwardly:
“If I do a single deduction again, I’m a dog!”
