Chapter 303: Sucked Dry, Golden Little Tree
The Magical Beast God died eventually, or rather, this divine incarnation died.
At the moment Meng Lei decided to kill, there was no more chance that it could survive.
The snakehead was penetrated and died on the spot.
“I gotta strike while it’s hot!”
Meng Lei did not let the Magical Beast God off as he continued to absorb its life essence madly. He finally stopped delightfully when it was sucked till it became a mummy.
“My divine body is getting stronger again. There should be little match for it among intermediate deities!”
Meng Lei clenched his fist slightly, and endless strength surged from his body. Meng Lei had a feeling that he could punch a hole through the Gods-Demons Continent!
“To be able to absorb others’ life essence for my own, the Ancient Tree of Life was the right bloodline to assimilate!”
Meng Lei took a deep breath and kept the Magical Beast God’s mummified body with a wave of a hand. Then he looked at the golden vine that dropped on the ground.
Without sustained power of divinity, the golden vine became a 20 centimeter-long twig with the thickness of a thumb. It had a unique striation, which made Meng Lei feel familiar at first sight.
“This texture... Why does this look so similar to the golden leaf in my sea of consciousness?” Meng Lei mumbled. “Perhaps they came from the same plant?”
Meng Lei wanted to summon that golden leaf and compare with it properly, yet tragically, the golden leaf just would not answer his calls.
But what could he do?
Meng Lei could only refine the golden twig and compare it within his sea of consciousness.
A drop of blood fell, but it could not seep into the golden twig, meaning it failed to recognize the owner.
That also meant that the golden twig was owned previously.
Meng Lei released his divine cognition, and indeed there was a divine spirit mark left by the Magical Beast God.
Without a word, the divine spirit mark was destroyed immediately.
Meng Lei successfully claimed ownership of the golden twig and let it enter his sea of consciousness.
Then, an amazing sight happened!
The stationary golden leaf that was hovering in the sea of consciousness started to move over when the golden twig arrived.
The golden twig flew over too, and the two just combined strangely together!
To be exact, the golden leaf grew onto the golden twig. From afar, it looked like a tree branch with a leaf growing on it.
“What the... They grew into each other!”
Meng Lei was dumbfounded.
What kind of situation was this?
He could tell that the two were very much alike, and they were likely from the same source. Yet, he could never have thought that they would actually combine. It was beyond his expectations.
Meng Lei immediately tried to activate them... and the combined leaf and twig started to move!
“I can activate them!”
Meng Lei was overjoyed and summoned the golden branch at once. He started to check it out in his hands.
The golden twig and the golden leaf had the same striation, so it could be seen that they originated from the same tree.
Now the question was, what was that tree?
“Dodola, you said it was the tree branch of the Golden Apple Tree, right?” Meng Lei asked.
“It looked like that, but the aura was entirely different!” Dodola was puzzled too as it continued. “To be honest, I am quite baffled by this! But it is definitely some good stuff that you should keep!”
Meng Lei nodded. This piece of golden tree branch could penetrate his divine body with such ease. Just how sharp and powerful was it?
It was a so-called high-tier divine weapon! Of course, he should keep it safe!
After keeping the golden branch, Meng Lei looked at the Magical Beast God’s carcass and dug out a divine core from it—the Magical Beast God’s divine core.
“Human, I’ll never let you off! I’ll never let you off!”
Furious screams came from the divine core—it hated Meng Lei to the core!
If hate could kill, it would have cut Meng Lei up into a million pieces and tortured him to death.
“I’ll welcome your arrival anytime.”
Meng Lei scoffed, and his divine cognition ravaged the divine core.
He wanted to read the memory of the Magical Beast God and find out what secrets it had.
“Don’t even think about it, human!”
The Magical Beast God clearly understood Meng Lei’s intentions, and its divine spirit started to resist madly.
“You’re not even my match when you’re alive, and you still have the cheek to resist?”
Meng Lei sneered and increased the intensity of his divine spirit offense.
“Arghhhh...”
After some intense ravaging, the Magical Beast God’s divine spirit was smashed into bits all around, and Meng Lei could finally read its memory.
After approximately half an hour...
Meng Lei let out a long breath, and a hint of a slight smile appeared at the corners of his lips.
“This... I really deserved to earn another windfall! How could the Magical Beast God have such a lucky encounter!”
Who was the Magical Beast God?
The Magical Beast God was only a normal Saint Domain python divine beast.
However, it had been extremely lucky to pick up a spatial ring from an underground cave that it had stumbled upon by accident.
The spatial ring had been an ordinary one, but the things stored inside were not ordinary at all. Other than tons of treasure, there were also two lesser deity divine cores.
The Magical Beast God had refined both divine cores and used the treasure that could strengthen the divine spirit to become an intermediate deity!
In the Gods-Demons Continent, an intermediate deity was an invincible presence. The Magical Beast God had relied on its incredible power to subdue all the Magical Beasts of the continent and become the Magical Beast God while looting around without restraint.
Thanks to these treasures and divine cores, the Magical Beast God had split its divine spirit two times in a row while cultivating another two divine incarnations!
From then on, it had four divine incarnations to become an outstanding existence among intermediate deities.
Plus, if not because of the limited treasures to strengthen the divine spirit, the Magical Beast God could have had a fifth divine incarnation and become a pinnacle-level intermediate deity.
“How impressive! Most of the treasures were looted by this fellow!”
Having read the Magical Beast God’s memory, Meng Lei knew how rich it was:
There were more than 100 lesser deity divine cores alone and countless other treasures that could at least strengthen the divine spirit!
However, Meng Lei mostly overlooked these many treasures as only one thing caught his serious attention—a golden little tree!
Where had the golden branch that attacked Meng Lei at the final moment come from?
It came from this golden little tree!
What was the golden little tree?
The Magical Beast God did not know.
It only knew that the golden little tree grew on a half-plane and was discovered by chance!
“Half-plane!”
Meng Lei hurriedly followed the Magical Beast God’s memory to teleport to that half-plane’s entrance and went straight into it.
The half-plane was not particularly huge, with just a few kilometers big. It was bare without any plants, just a little tree that stood strong alone over there.
The little tree was not tall as it was only a meter tall, with around four branches growing a few leaves. One of the branches was broken with the leaves gone too.
How should this tree be described?
It was as if it had been through the cold autumn where most leaves had fallen.
“The golden tree branch was cut down by the Magical Beast God who had done everything it could!”
Meng Lei stared at the little tree with apprehension and anticipation in his eyes. “All these years, the Magical Beast God had been trying to refine this little tree, but it failed!”
“I wonder if I can do it?”
Meng Lei dropped a drip of blood onto the golden little tree, and something exciting occurred—the blood managed to seep through the little tree!
In an instant, Meng Lei had the slightest of connections with this golden little tree.
“I’ve refined the golden little tree!?”
Meng Lei was stupefied.
