Chapter 105: Formally Entering the God-Level Era
Stepping into the space within the Golden Ancient Tree, Lei Chen did not delay for a moment. He turned to face Bi Ji, who followed closely behind, his expression solemn.
Without the need for any complex rituals or incantations, as the Plane Master, he possessed absolute control over this Life Core.
Lei Chen extended his right index finger, the tip swirling with the most primordial seven-colored Light of the Plane, and lightly tapped Bi Ji's forehead.
"Relax your mind and accept this authority." Lei Chen's voice was low and filled with majesty, like the whisper of laws.
Bi Ji closed her eyes as instructed, completely letting go of all her defenses and opening her divine sense entirely.
The moment that speck of seven-colored light touched her forehead, a vast and boundless torrent of information and power—seemingly originating from the cosmic origin of life—poured into her sea of divine sense like a bursting flood.
"Buzz—!"
Bi Ji felt her divine sense infinitely stretched and expanded in an instant, breaking through the shackles of her physical body and merging into an indescribably vast realm.
It was an ocean of life. Countless golden veins of varying thickness, glowing with a soft radiance, formed the main body of this ocean. They crisscrossed, covering every corner within sight and extending into the depths of the endless void.
Each of these veins represented a forest, a river, a mountain range, or even the life cycle system of an entire region.
She could see the growth of tree rings deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, hear the faint sound of snow lotuses blooming in the Far North Land, feel the rhythmic pulse of migrating fish schools in the ocean, and even vaguely capture the vigorous vitality represented by the lights of ten thousand homes in human cities...
At this moment, she seemed to have completely fused with the Life Origin of the entire Douluo Plane.
It was no longer the vague perception based on sensing auras from before, but a perspective of a 'manager' or 'agent,' clearly'seeing' every pulse and every energy flow of the plane's life network.
That grand, precise, and vibrant scene left the newly ascended God of the Forest completely intoxicated. Her divine sense involuntarily swayed with the vast rhythm of life, like an infant returning to its mother's embrace—warm, secure, and filled with infinite mysteries.
This wonderful feeling of resonating with the life of the entire plane made Bi Ji completely forget the passage of time. Her mind was entirely immersed in this ocean of life, greedily comprehending the infinite principles of law contained within.
For her, who possessed a life-attribute God Position, this was undoubtedly the most precious treasure in the world.
After a long while, Bi Ji's infinitely extended divine sense slowly receded like a tide, returning to her physical body.
Her long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and she slowly opened her emerald-like eyes. In the depths of her pupils, the shock and intoxication had not yet fully dissipated, replaced by a deeper realization and awe for the great power of life.
Lei Chen had been standing quietly to the side, his aura peaceful, without any intention of rushing or interrupting Bi Ji's rare epiphany.
He knew well that wielding such authority for the first time and deeply connecting with the plane's Life Origin held inestimable benefits for Bi Ji's future path to godhood. Seeing her come back to her senses now, with divine light contained in her eyes and an aura more harmonious and profound than before, he knew she had gained much.
"How do you feel?" Lei Chen spoke calmly, breaking the silence within the tree's space.
Bi Ji took a deep breath, trying her best to calm her surging emotions. When she looked at Lei Chen again, her gaze was filled with immense gratitude and determination: "Boundless and exquisite... Bi Ji never imagined that life could be presented in such a magnificent way. Thank you, Plane Master, for granting me such an opportunity!"
Lei Chen nodded slightly and got down to business: "Since you are familiar with it, then next, the heavy responsibility of driving the Golden Ancient Tree to continuously devour and refine these Abyss remains is officially handed over to you."
He pointed to the two dark red light spheres bound by seven-colored chains in the air. "You need to use your own divine power and authority to guide the ancient tree to speed up the devouring process and harmonize the energy conflicts during the transformation. This process must be persistent and uninterrupted until they are completely turned into nutrients for our world."
Bi Ji's expression turned serious, and she bowed to accept the command without hesitation, her voice clear and firm: "Please rest assured, Plane Master! Bi Ji will do her utmost and live up to the trust! I will guard this place until the task is complete!" "Good." Lei Chen said no more; he had full confidence in Bi Ji's promise.
He took one last look at the two light spheres symbolizing the end of the Abyss, then at Bi Ji, whose body had begun to naturally flow with emerald divine light and was already closely linked to the aura of the Golden Ancient Tree. With a slight flicker of his figure, he vanished silently into the tree's space like a ripple merging into water.
Shortly after Lei Chen left, the countless golden veins inside the stationary Golden Ancient Tree suddenly lit up with an even more brilliant light, as if injected with new vitality.
Bi Ji hovered in the air, her hands forming a profound seal. Her emerald divine light and the seven-colored halo of the Golden Ancient Tree complemented each other. Her vast yet gentle divine power acted like a catalyst, pouring into the law chains that bound the dark red light spheres.
"Buzz—!"
Outside the ancient tree, the towering trunk shook slightly. A golden halo, brighter and more stable than before, soared into the sky, illuminating the entire core area of the Lake of Life like a divine realm. Under the full exertion of Bi Ji, the God of the Forest, the efficiency of the devouring and refining process clearly improved by a level.
Lei Chen, who had already appeared in the void outside the ancient tree, felt the stable and efficient energy fluctuations coming from the tree behind him, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl into a satisfied arc.
With Bi Ji in charge here, the devouring process was worry-free. For the next few centuries, he truly wouldn't need to worry too much about this place.
As his thoughts turned, a hint of emotion also rose in Lei Chen's heart.
Bi Ji's attainment of godhood was of extraordinary significance. It meant that, besides a powerhouse like Electrolux who came here through special circumstances, the Douluo Plane had finally given birth to its own first god-level subordinate who grew up locally.
This was undoubtedly a highly symbolic beginning, proving that under his guidance as the Plane Master, this plane already possessed the potential and foundation to nurture god-level powerhouses on its own.
"Where there is one, there will be a second." Lei Chen's gaze was profound as he looked toward the vast continent, his heart filled with anticipation. "Soon, this plane will welcome a glorious era where god-level powerhouses emerge one after another, and its foundation will become increasingly deep..."
Just as Lei Chen's heart surged with thoughts of the plane's future prosperity, his mind suddenly stirred, as if sensing a subtle fluctuation transmitted across a vast distance.
His eyes, containing seven-colored flowing light, instantly became sharp. He snapped his gaze toward a certain direction in the south of the continent, as if piercing through layers of clouds and mountains to see the scene thousands of miles away.
A look of realization and slight gratification appeared on Lei Chen's face, and he whispered to himself: "Perhaps, it won't even be 'soon'... This second god-level powerhouse seems to be unable to wait any longer."
