Chapter 1798 [Bonus chapter] Fourth Standard World Tree in the Process
Ajax hoped that with Siora's luck, there might be a slight chance of getting a Divine Grade Fruit and hence, he focused on nurturing the Lesser World Trees to get as many Lesser World Fruits as possible.
Even if Ajax didn't get a Divine Grade Fruit, he was still happy with the treasures he was getting from the Lesser World Fruits that Siora crushed.
'I have 4000 drops of Plant Essence left with me which is more than enough to nurture the Lesser World Tree for 10000 years.'
With an excited smile on his face, Ajax poured 2399 drops of Plant Essence on the ground around the Lesser World Tree.
'Swoosh'
As the Lesser World Tree resumed its rapid growth, Skaros, the Primeval Ent was looking at Ajax, Siora and the Lesser World Tree with a shocked look on his face.
'When did it become so easy to nurture the Lesser World Tree? Is he still the same Ajax I met a few months back?'
There were many thoughts in Skaros's head as he tried his best to look calm and composed; however, he was unable to do it.
Plant Essence is a cultivation resource that is very hard to find in most of the world and it is available only in the worlds that were filled with many special trees and plants that were grown for years.
The Plant Essence produced by these plants and trees was used to nurture the Lesser World Tree and the Standard World Tree in the world and in turn, the World Trees will help these plants with enough pure essence of nature along with other benefits like growth boosts, evolution of the plants and trees.
In short, there was a symbiotic relationship between the World Trees and these special plants and there were worlds that mainly focused on the World Trees and these special plants.
As for the Purple Stone World, it was a world mainly for humans and as for the trees, even though there were many forests, the world's overall grade was still low and it would take many centuries or even millennia.
However, Ajax was able to bring out thousands of Plant Essence and even the Lesser World Tree gave him 4600 drops of Plant Essence right in front of his eyes.
'It looks like he and she must be chosen.'
Since Siora was able to get such good items from the Lesser World Fruits, Skaros thought that was a chosen one.
As for Ajax, he was just a child born in the low-level Province in the Purple Stone World; however, he was able to become the Emperor of the World before the age of 20 and even established himself in the other worlds.
So, there were no doubts for Skaros regarding Ajax being a chosen one.
...
'Ding,
The host's Lesser World Tree has reached 8000 years old and bore two Lesser World Fruits.
'Ding,
The host's Lesser World Tree has reached 9000 years old and bore two Lesser World Fruits.
On the other hand, Ajax didn't bother to look at Skaros' shocked look as he focused on collecting the Lesser World Fruits.
"Skaros, can you go and start your preparation for the ascension to my world?"
Unlike before, Ajax was not in a hurry to either crush the Lesser World Fruits or evolve the Lesser World Tree into a Standard World Tree.
He didn't want Skaros watching him evolve the Lesser World Tree and thus, he sent Skaros away.
Even though Ajax trusted Skaros, that doesn't mean he would casually share his secret of evolving the Lesser World Tree into a Standard World Tree.
Skaros could tell that Ajax didn't want me to stay here and he didn't mind those words because he could tell that Ajax needed some privacy.
He knew that he didn't have many interactions with Ajax and despite that, Ajax allowed him to witness the nurturing of the Lesser World Tree until it reached 9999 years old.
Hence, the Primeval Ent was satisfied with it and quietly left from there, leaving Ajax and Siora with the Lesser World Tree that was only one year away from reaching 10,000 years.
After seeing Primeval Ent, Ajax used his Divine Spirit Consciousness to check whether Skaros was checking on them with his many branches that covered half of the Inner Section of the Cursed Wilderness.
'It looks like he is really giving me my privacy...not bad.'
Ajax was satisfied with Skaros' behaviour before focusing on his world.
"Purple...use this Normal World Core for your evolution into the Standard World Tree." nove-Lb-1n
With a thought, Ajax summoned the tree spirit of the Lesser World Tree out of the tree and gave a Normal World Core to her.
As the tree spirit, she could tell that it was Ajax who was nurturing her and thus, she was absolutely loyal to him. She carefully took the Normal World Cores and nodded her head with shining light in her eyes.
'Swoosh'
After that, she didn't waste any time in returning to the Lesser World Tree and waited for Ajax to give out the last drop of Plant Essence that was required to reach her 10000 years and initiate her evolution process.
'Swoosh'
The Lesser World Tree that was waiting for that single drop didn't 'Drop'
Ajax carefully dropped a single drop of Plant Essence on the ground.
'Swoosh'
The Lesser World Tree that was waiting for that single drop didn't waste any time and absorbed it in no time.
'Ding,
The host's Lesser World Tree has reached 10,000 years and has borne two Lesser World Fruits and two Eternal World Fruits.
'Ding,
The host's Lesser World Tree has met the requirements and initiated an evolution to become a Standard World Tree. Estimated evolution time: 24 hours.
With a single drop of Plant Essence, there were almost no changes in the Lesser World Tree; however, it bore four fruits and at the same time, it even initiated the evolution process.
Once the evolution process started, the entire tree shone with a bright light and beneath that light, it rapidly extended its branches all over the Purple Stone World.
