Chapter 917.5- Fight or peace (2)

That was...T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

The Death King Tree was a level eight mutated lifeform that was intelligent. It could absorb human knowledge through mysterious methods, which made it really intelligent.

It just needed to think, and it came to an answer that nearly made it flee.

That bone was... A level nine lifeform’s.

Although humans or mutated lifeforms didn’t reach level nine, this didn’t stop high-level lifeforms from trying hard to evolve to that level to sense the power that belonged to that level.

For example, King Flame Dove, whom Hong Xiang and Zhongming killed, had already comprehended the rules and energy of the world.

The Death King Tree was one step from level nine, and it could sense it, too.

It was afraid when that blur and unclear power suddenly appeared in front of it.

Right, it was afraid and not emotional.

Mutated lifeforms and humans were different. The latter relied on evolution potions, while the former relied on themselves. The first few levels were okay. As long as they had enough energy and triggered some of their genes, they would evolve.

But the higher their levels went, the more challenging the evolution would become. It might be because they wanted to make it easier for humans to catch up, or it was the law of nature, but that was the truth.

Starting from the evolution from level six to seven, each stage was a huge jump. When you reached level eight to nine in evolution, that gap was the same as from Earth to the heavens.

That wasn’t hard to understand. Look at the Posthumous people. Their evolutions didn’t rely on potions; they only relied on themselves. Like those in Wuxia novels, they had to comprehend and meditate to reach a new realm.

Focus, comprehend, improve.

Death King Tree was like Flame Dove. The closer it got to level nine, the more it felt like it just needed an opportunity to comprehend something.

Those words made it furious, but it still didn’t charge at him like other lifeforms would.

“But I have to admit, I would need some time to kill you, and I would have to pay a huge price.” Ye Zhongming stared at its expression and changed his words.

“My territory is being attacked. If I waste time here, things might happen there. I am not willing to see that.”

Its eyes lit as it saw the bone staff dim.

Ye Zhongming knew that he could bait it. He continued to use mental energy to light more marks. When the fourth was lit, the Death King Tree realized something and took two steps back.

It noticed that a strong aura was spreading from the staff. Its good eyesight made it see that there were 15 marks.

When the fourth lit up, it already felt a threat. If all 15 lit, the Death King Tree didn’t dare imagine.

“To be honest, you should be used to using human’s way of thinking to consider this problem.” Ye Zhongming tried to probe.

“What method?” The Death King Tree asked instinctively.

Ye Zhongming felt that not only would he not have to fight today, but he might also be able to gain something: “Interests!”

“There aren’t forever enemies, only forever interests. That is a famous human saying, and I think you know that.”

It rolled its eyes, and the crown nodded. In the minds that it absorbed, there was indeed such a phrase.

“We might have been enemies in the past, but it was because we had no common interests. But things are different now, I have found that interest.”

“Maybe we can work together. You can help me, and I can...”

“Help you have a human body...”
