Start from the God of Death and break through the world.

Chapter 1170 Divine Plants Create the World
Within the Sea of ​​the World, Lu Li sat cross-legged in the void, quickly immersing himself in the mysteries of the Spirit Seed.

At this moment, he was completely focused, even forgetting about time and other things. He felt as if he were roaming in the supreme mystery, with the nine spiritual seeds circulating endlessly in the small world within his body, emitting various auspicious lights.

Unbeknownst to him, as the nine spirit seeds began to circulate, Lu Li felt as if he had been embedded in the void of the World Sea.

If any forbidden figures were present, they would find that Lu Li was nowhere to be found, and even his location could not be deduced; it was as if he had simply vanished into the void.

Of course, Lu Li did not sever his connection with the End Space, so Aizen and his friends could check on his safety through the contact list.

In this way, Lu Li seemed to become one with the whole world, and without realizing it, he entered a terrifying state.

If Lu Li were to regain consciousness, he would realize that his current situation was actually quite dangerous. If things went wrong, he would dissolve into the world and return to the origin of all things.

However, Lu Li was completely absorbed in exploring the mysteries of the spirit seed and was unaware of this.

Within Lu Li's inner world, since he merged with the greater world, this inner world seemed to expand infinitely. The nine spiritual seeds also seemed to merge with the greater world, serving as a bridge connecting Lu Li with the outside world.

In this peculiar state, those once withered spiritual seeds, one by one, blossomed with new life through the cyclical power of heaven and earth.

Lu Li gazed at those spirit seeds, observing their journey from death to life, and gained a unique understanding.

The spiritual seed's energy circulates endlessly, as if it were originally one with the universe. After the spiritual seed has completed one cycle, the origin spiritual seed is the first to unleash its power. Its tender shoots grow rapidly and soon become a towering world tree.

Then came the End Spirit Seed, which transformed into a towering vine in the second cycle of the Heavenly Cycle. The same was true for the Immortal Spirit Seed and the Chaos Spirit Seed.

In the end, all nine spirit seeds grew into towering divine plants, and Lu Li's spirit roamed among them, as if traveling through one enormous world after another.

As the nine divine plants swayed, their powers symbiotically. Lu Li saw the gourd hanging on the innate gourd vine open its mouth, from which waves of chaotic primordial energy surged out, cleansing this world, or rather, cleansing himself.

He saw the World Tree merge with his martial arts furnace, with all kinds of laws and principles being deduced, eventually transforming into a permanent form of law within this world. From a macroscopic perspective, it means that many of the laws and skills have been transformed into his passive skills.

He saw three golden lights shining on the ginseng fruit tree. In the constant cycle and regeneration of the world, the primordial chaos energy washed over the area, and a rich life force was concentrated there.

Lu Li's own spirit was also unconsciously drawn to those three golden points, hanging in the very center of the tree.

The golden light on his left and right sides gradually took shape under the influence of various auras, resembling two tender infants hanging on the tree. Upon closer inspection, the infants' faces were exactly the same as Lu Li's when he was a child.

Beneath the most magnificent ginseng fruit tree, other spiritual plants were also nourished by its vitality and spiritual energy. In addition, the great medicine that Lu Li had previously refined with the True Martial Emperor also began to take effect, and the various divine plants began to undergo transformation.

First is the Origin Spirit Seed, whose evolution condition is to develop a skill of SSS+ or higher. Now that Lu Li Wan Dao has merged into one, the Martial Arts Furnace is transforming him every minute and every second, fusing the ultimate martial arts techniques, and finally creating the strongest technique.

The World Tree expanded further, becoming as magnificent as the divine tree in the Origin Space. The evolution on it seemed to have stopped, but upon closer inspection, each leaf contained a small world.

Within each of these small worlds, a magnificent martial arts furnace roars and rumbles, using the myriad realms as its foundation for deduction, forging unparalleled methods!

At the same time, the innate star tree transformed from the Immortal Spirit Seed swayed, and countless stars were born in the world within Lu Li's body, creating all things in the universe. Under the surging chaos energy, this world seemed to be reopened.

Lu Li sat cross-legged under the ginseng fruit tree, seemingly transformed into a holy infant. The essence of his blood flowed out from his body, intertwining with the innate gourd vine. The vine grew wildly, taking the World Tree as its base, twining and growing, hanging from its branches. The unripe gourd finally grew into a full-grown gourd.

After the gourd matured, it closed its mouth and stopped spewing out the primordial chaos. Instead, it drew the imprisoned demon in Lu Li's hand into it and re-refined Lu Li's innate primordial energy, allowing the imprisoned demon to undergo a complete transformation.

Lu Li and the Prisoner Demon share the same origin. The Prisoner Demon was being refined, which can also be considered as Lu Li being refined. Under the ginseng fruit tree, his whole body shone with golden light for a moment, and at another moment, the innate chaotic energy flowed around him, which was very mysterious.

It is unknown how much time passed in this state. The three Lu Li Saint Infants on the Ginseng Fruit Tree became more and more solid, and the tree's vitality became more and more vigorous, with streams of vitality filling the heaven and earth, as if about to overflow.

Just then, as if to conceal this innate essence, the World Tree took the initiative to act. Its branches and leaves swayed, and each leaf began to draw in that life force.

After the life force was infused into the leaves, the leaves swelled up and turned into translucent bubbles. From a distance, they still looked like emerald green leaves or fruits, but up close they looked like crystal bubble lamps.

The innate gourd vines entwined around the World Tree swayed at this moment, and chaotic energy emerged, entering the leaves of the World Tree. In an instant, the small worlds within them were created from the chaos.

However, it seemed to be lacking some energy and matter; the chaotic mass of energy just kept swirling in the leaves of the World Tree and ultimately failed to dissipate.

At that very moment, in another location where the World Tree and the Ginseng Fruit Tree were at opposite angles, forming a triangle, the Innate Star Tree also completed its complete transformation.

The key to the Immortal Spirit Seed's advancement to its ultimate form lies in an Origin-level spiritual root. And it is unknown whether it is a coincidence or not, but the True Martial Emperor was actually cultivated from a spiritual plant. After Lu Li refined it into a great medicine, the Immortal Spirit Seed absorbed it, and at this time, it also underwent its ultimate transformation.

With a sway of the towering Star Tree, countless stars fell from the heavens and began to scatter among the leaves of the World Tree.

Because stars vary in size, each leaf enters them randomly, resulting in differences. Some leaves receive a lot of star matter and celestial energy, while others receive only a little star matter.

The life force emanating from the ginseng fruit tree was similar, varying in quantity. As a result, some leaves on the World Tree are now thick and broad, while others appear thin and malnourished.

After obtaining the immortal energy and stellar matter, the chaotic energy swirled and condensed, as if it had mixed all the matter together, before bursting out.

What a magnificent sight it was! Standing at the foot of the World Tree, one could witness countless worlds being created from chaos. With each explosion, all matter, spiritual energy, and life force were randomly distributed within these worlds. Countless years passed, and the branches of the World Tree swayed, each leaf revealing a different scene. Some were desolate and lifeless, while others saw their universes expanding continuously under the initial explosive force of chaos.

Some, due to the accidental differences in the flow of chaotic energy, did not produce a divergent explosion, and thus did not form a vast universe, but instead formed a continent in the central region of heaven and earth.

In such a world, the leaves would appear much more solid, and that continent, being the place where essence was previously infused, would be far more concentrated than the dispersed cosmic energy.

After the world stabilized, amidst the circulation of Yin and Yang energies, and the mixture of life force and celestial energy, it seemed that beings were born within the World Tree. Initially, they did not have complex forms, nor did they form groups.

But just as the World Tree is evolving at the speed of light, the scenery within the world is changing extremely quickly. In Lu Li's mental perspective, the blink of an eye is the passage of millions of years.

Finally, some leaves seemed to give birth to complex life forms. They formed groups, but they were mediocre and had no desire to explore the world or seek the way of all things.

Just then, the Tree of Wisdom that had grown from the Arcane Seed began to sway, and seeds resembling Bodhi seeds fell from the tree, scattering and entering the leaves of the World Tree.

Thus, all living beings in the world were enlightened, their wisdom was awakened, and they began to have a desire to explore and learn.

After a few more peeks, one can see that systematic intelligent life has emerged in the world. They have begun to explore the world, and some have even developed civilizations.

Some of these people, as the earliest life forms born in the world, have already begun to possess great power. They are unwilling to accept the simple rules of the world and want to try to defy the heavens.

Creatures in barren worlds seek immortality, while those already immortal beings in wealthy worlds seek to break through boundaries and explore.

On the World Tree, for a moment, many worlds shone with dazzling light, and some leaves fell, turning into bubbles as they fell to the dust.

Those living beings in the world do not appreciate the blessings bestowed upon them by Heaven and Earth, but instead attempt to defy Heaven, just like the termites and viruses on this great tree, constantly destroying its vibrant leaves.

To prevent the virus from spreading to other leaves, the World Tree severed itself from those leaves before the 'rebellious beings' from those worlds could emerge, knocking them to the dust and annihilating them.

Yet this still could not contain the chaos in each world. It seems that this is the inherent flaw of all living beings, but also their virtue. They are born unwilling to be controlled, and after the light of wisdom is ignited, they will always have a heart that seeks knowledge and exploration.

Just as the World Tree was about to collapse and wither, the divine plant transformed from the Heavenly Dao Spirit Seed swayed slightly, with invisible energy flowing over it, and rays of light shooting out and flying into the leaves of the World Tree.

The next moment, the shaking of the World Tree stopped, and calamities such as heavenly tribulations began to appear in those small worlds, punishing those intelligent beings who wanted to disrupt the foundation of the world.

Those who seek immortality die before their lifespan ends, while those who seek to defy the heavens and break through boundaries perish on their path to heaven. Natural disasters are constant, man-made calamities are endless, fate is unpredictable, and the will of heaven is hard to fathom. This is the rule that forms the stable foundation of the Heavenly Way.

However, this stability did not last long, because the leaves of those World Trees were still evolving. Intelligent beings were still unwilling to submit to the Way of Heaven. Although civilization feared the ruthless power of the Way of Heaven, it also harbored a deep desire to defy it.

Just then, the spiritual plant transformed from the seed of the gods took flight and landed behind the World Tree. Rays of holy light shone brightly, illuminating the leaves of the World Tree, and thus those intelligent beings began to have faith.

Their faith converged into a river, forging an even stronger existence, becoming either the cornerstone of civilization or the culprit in its destruction. Some of the strong chose to ascend to heaven once more in search of immortality and truth.

Finally, amidst the continuous onslaught of new powerful beings, even the once mighty Heavenly Dao of the world began to falter. They realized that simple calamities and the whims of fate could not stop these people, and some worlds were even about to be shattered once again.

Helpless, the World Tree could only shake its branches once more, letting the leaves fall and turn to dust, vanishing like bubbles.

At this moment, the seemingly withered and desolate black divine plant transformed from the ancient spirit seed swayed slightly, and a series of domineering and aggressive auras rushed towards the World Tree.

The World Tree initially seemed to want to dodge, but in the end it did not refuse, allowing those auras to rush into its leaves, eventually merging with the Dao of Heaven.

As a result, a desolate atmosphere swept through the world, and the Heavenly Dao once again unleashed its calamity, which no human power could resist.

Finally, the World Tree stabilized and entered a long period of peace.

The majority of the world's inhabitants live in peace and prosperity, while those who seek immortality do not attain it, and those who seek truth do not attain it.

It is unknown how much time has passed, but in some worlds the number of intelligent beings has begun to decline sharply. Cultivators have stopped cultivating, becoming obsessed with worldly pleasures and oppressing ordinary people to grant them supreme enjoyment.

The people suffered greatly and could not live a good life. It is said that those who seek immortality will eventually abandon immortality, and those who seek peace will eventually find no place of peace.

Seeing that all the worlds are developing in this direction, the living beings in the world will eventually face self-destruction, return to their original state, and let this world, which was created from chaos, return to its original form, that peaceful world without living beings.

The World Tree swayed, initially seemingly joyful, as if it had gathered the strength of its brothers and finally won a battle to protect its own health.

But not long after, the World Tree stopped swaying again, seemingly saddened, because it discovered that the completely lifeless leaves had lost their vitality, and there seemed to be no longer any power flowing through the veins.

So it hoped that the Way of Heaven would treat the intelligent beings within the leaves gently, and the Way of Heaven did just that, allowing the Tree of Wisdom to give people more wisdom, and the Tree of Wisdom did just that.

No matter how hard these two efforts are to make the world more prosperous and people smarter, they cannot reverse the world's decline.

On the contrary, the more wisdom people have, the faster the world will decline.
