Watching Meng Hong Ye depart, Qin Yu felt a sense of loss.
He sighed softly and lay back down to bask in the sun.
He couldn't actually chase after a girl into her room, at least not yet.
After lying down for a while.
Qin Yu opened his eyes again and shook his head firmly.
"No, I can't slack off anymore."
With that, he turned over.
But don't misunderstand, he wasn't going back to lounging around.
"Let me see what you truly are."
As a hint of emerald green lit up at his fingertips, Qin Yu once again took out the green leaf.
The white-clothed woman in his dream had entrusted it to him but hadn't explained anything.
She wouldn't even bother to ask about Nahida.
She's your child, you know!
"A riddle-teller, huh."
Qin Yu stared at the green leaf for a long time, but found nothing.
He thought Columbia was enigmatic enough, but now there was someone even more so.
"But this power..."
Qin Yu mused, contemplating.
It possessed a vigorous life force, so much so that he could clearly feel it pulsing.
It was an extremely pure Dendro power.
"This thing?"
Qin Yu poked the green leaf, his brow slightly furrowed.
If he wanted to plant this seed, he would need suitable soil and nutrients.
Where was the soil...
Qin Yu held the green leaf, lost in thought.
It clearly wasn't something he could just bury in the ground and be done with.
"But speaking of nutrients."
"Perhaps that research could..."
Qin Yu murmured, recalling the data he had taken from the Doctor's fragment.
Various possibilities for the application of Aggravate reactions.
Qin Yu didn't understand the principles behind it.
He figured stimulating it with Electro would be enough.
However, Qin Yu possessed something the Doctor didn't.
"Let's try."
With this thought, a glint appeared in Qin Yu's eyes.
The next moment, a sharp purple light gathered above his head.
[Combat Talent: Divine Transformation - Eye of the Wicked]
"I hope it works."
At Qin Yu's fingertips, Electro power rejoiced and leaped.
This wasn't ordinary Electro power, but the true authority of a god, blessed by Ei.
He carefully touched the green leaf with his fingertip.
The next moment, the green leaf emitted a dazzling light and began to tremble violently.
"Did it go wrong?"
Qin Yu's expression changed slightly, fearing it might explode.
Just as he was contemplating whether to flee, the green leaf suddenly stopped trembling and returned to his palm.
"It seems to have worked."
Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and shook it lightly.
He could clearly sense that the green leaf, imbued with the wisdom and power of the white-clothed woman, was now exuding new vitality.
It even seemed to have stretched a little.
"A state of activation? But this boundless energy can't remain in the green leaf forever."
In other words, the Electro power wasn't strong enough to reach a critical point to fully activate the green leaf.
Once the time was up, it would revert to its original state.
Qin Yu frowned, his initial joy calming down.
It would be a pity for such pure energy to disappear entirely.
But after holding it for so long, it seemed to have no other use besides warming his palm.
After all, he couldn't channel its energy and could only watch helplessly.
Thinking this, Qin Yu paused.
"Channeling energy..."
He murmured, a possibility dawning on him.
He quickly took out the energy core that was shining with a golden light.
He looked at the core, then at the green leaf.
He recalled Sundrop's description of the core, likening it to a power supply and conversion device for a Gnosis.
A bold idea formed in his mind.
"Buzz—"
Golden light and emerald green intertwined. Qin Yu, holding these two mysterious powers, tentatively touched them together.
The next moment, the green leaf released a trace of emerald green, which merged into the golden light, creating ripples.
The previously chaotic energy within the core was undergoing some unknown transformation.
A golden glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes as he murmured:
"So it really is possible."
At the same time, a strange sensation surged through him.
"Thump, thump, thump."
He could actually hear the pulse of the Ley Lines!
Vaguely, ethereal voices echoed.
These were voices deeply embedded in the Irminsul.
They were also the wisdom of the infinite, the wisdom of gods.
"Something's not right..."
Qin Yu realized something and froze.
A part of his consciousness had connected to the Ley Lines.
Good heavens, is Khaenri'ah's technology really that amazing?
Being able to control the power of the Ley Lines was akin to possessing authority.
Isn't this what mortals call a god?
"Then what is my authority at this moment..."
He recalled the white-clothed woman in the forest.
Qin Yu's eyes widened slightly, and he instinctively reached out towards the sea.
At his fingertips, a green light gathered.
The next moment, he clenched his fist!
"Rumble—!"
Deep within the profound sea, a roar echoed.
The waves surged, as if something was about to erupt. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Wh-What's happening?"
"Could it be a tsunami?!"
As the ship swayed, the panicked cries of the Tenryou Commission samurai rang out.
Everyone was stunned, how could there be a tsunami on a clear day!
Could a god be causing trouble in the sea?!
"Lord Qin Yu, you...!"
Before any samurai could reach Qin Yu, the world suddenly darkened.
The sun was swallowed.
"This, this is!"
A samurai collapsed onto the deck, extending a trembling hand.
"Whoosh—"
The surging seawater, stirred by the vibrations, fell back down, initiating a torrential rain.
The shadow became clearer, revealing its true form.
It was a giant tree, so colossal it blotted out the sky!
It grew from the bottom of the deep sea, stirring up monstrous waves.
The ocean is deep, everyone knows that.
But a giant tree growing from the seabed...
Just how unimaginably lush and immense must it be.
The ship, compared to it, was like a tiny, drifting insect.
Was this really not a dream?!
And beneath such a breathtaking shadow.
"Hm? Something wrong?"
Qin Yu slowly turned around, his expression calm.
The golden and emerald light in his eyes quietly dimmed.
The cooldown for the Eye of the Wicked had begun, and the energy generated by the activation was instantly depleted.
In short, the activation reaction had ended.
The divine authority had only lasted for an instant.
His brief resonance with the Ley Lines had also ceased.
But the giant tree, piercing through the deep sea, had truly grown.
Silently indicating the realm Qin Yu had once touched.
The realm of a god.
"Lord Qin Yu..." the samurai swallowed, his voice trembling.
"Such immense power, could you be the Dendro Archon?!"
The awe-inspiring voice echoed for a long time.
Qin Yu: "?"
Before Qin Yu could say anything.
"Crack—"
Amidst the clear sky, thunder suddenly struck.
"This is..."
Qin Yu was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at his waist.
There, the fierce general doll swung from side to side.
"!"
Qin Yu glared at the samurai, signaling him not to let anyone approach.
Then he picked up the doll and quickly adjusted his attire.
"Ahem, is the Great General here?"
Someone secretly poked the doll's cheek and asked in a low voice.
The next moment—
"What is it?"
A cold voice sounded in his ear.
His own superior had actually called!
