1425 Gains
Wang Teng was stunned to see the Mother of Light kneeling in front of him.
That was fast.
It caught him off guard.
Gaining her origin spirit was a compulsory measure. He would be satisfied with just controlling her body, since making her accept him wholeheartedly would definitely take some time.
However, the tree spirit kneeled right off the bat. She was proactive.
Was she trying to make him slacken his vigilance?
Or were there other reasons?
Wang Teng stared at the tree lady with strange eyes. He then said, “Get up.”
She had surrendered control to him; she wouldn’t be able to make any trouble, no matter what thoughts crossed her mind.
“Yes.” The tree spirit got up.
“Do you have a name? I don’t think I can keep calling you ‘Mother of Light’, right?” Wang Teng asked.
“You can call me Radiance. That’s what she called me in the past,” the tree spirit answered.
“She?” Wang Teng asked, “Who’s she?”
“I don’t know. I only know she’s a real god,” Radiance replied. She was momentarily lost reminiscing.
Wang Teng felt disappointed. He looked at Radiance and teased her, “So you were pretending to be her.”
Radiance’s gaze flickered after being exposed; she seemed to be a little embarrassed.
Ferya felt troubled as she stared at the other two speaking.
The Tree of Radiance recognized Wang Teng as her owner.
The main reason why she agreed to the young hero’s proposal was because she didn’t think the tree would really accept him as master.
After all, the Tree of Radiance was stubborn and unyielding.
Once the tree rejected him, she could step in and convince the tree spirit to go back with her, using sincerity and logic.
She believed that the tree would happily go home with her in the end.
Hers was a real light-element race. They had many light based items and skills to help star beasts and plants of this element. Furthermore, her grandfather was an almighty eternal stage duke. He could guide the Tree of Radiance with her cultivation.
Spiritual creatures with intelligence normally had great talents but they lacked someone who would guide the way. Hence, they would only achieve half the results with twice the effort.
Her conditions were definitely appealing.
But, she didn’t expect the tree spirit to relent that quickly; she didn’t even get a chance to speak.
The girl knew that they had probably spoken in private, in the end compelling the tree lady to willingly go to him.
Wang Teng’s actions always surprised her.
There was nothing she could do since the Tree of Radiance had recognized a master. She could only stare at the two.
Wang Teng remained quiet as he released spiritual power to collect the attribute bubbles dropped during their recent battle.
Constellation Force (Light)*63
Constellation Force (Light)*85

Spirit*72
Blank Attribute*280
Light Bolt*30
Light Cannon Fist*32

Light Ultima*120

…
He was elated when he saw the pile of bubbles merging with his body.
“Oh my god!”
Wang Teng’s eyes lit up. He immediately felt the changes as he glanced at the attributes board.
A large amount of constellation light Force was coursing his limbs and assimilating as his own cultivation.
All that light force had been dropped by the Tree of Radiance and Ferya. They were big clients of his.
Wang Teng sensed a breakthrough was taking place. His light Force climbed from the sixth to the seventh celestial stage level.
Constellation Light Force: 23500/70000 (celestial stage, seventh-level)
There was a huge increase in the points for Dazzling Sky, Fist of Light, and Light Bolt.
Dazzling Sky: 2000/5000 (specialized)
Fist of Light: 200/5000 (specialized)
Light Bolt: 350/5000 (specialized)
...
The three battle techniques had gone up from the well-versed to the specialized stage. That was a swift, one-level increase.
Wang Teng was elated. Even though his proficiency and power in those skills were not on par with the mastery attained by the tree spirit and Ferya, it was still equivalent to many years of hard work for normal martial warriors.
The power of a specialized skill was considerably strong.
He also received a new technique, the Light Cannon Fist!
It was the fist skill Ferya used with her light domain. It was impressive.
The first three battle techniques were at the universe stage, while this Light Cannon Fist was at the eternal stage.
Once the attribute bubble merged into his mind, the outline of a figure was manifested, to then begin displaying that powerful fist skill.
Knowledge flowed into his memory and the grasp of the Light Cannon Fist went to the roof.
Light Cannon Fist: 200/500 (well-versed)
Some time later, Wang Teng finished digesting the information and glanced at his attributes board. He noticed that the Light Cannon Fist had skipped the foundation level and went right into the well-versed stage.
Wang Teng felt overjoyed. He had another formidable battle technique.
...
Of course, the greatest gain this time was the light ultima, the light domain, and the light origin.
Light Origin: 620/10000 (first-rank)
Light Domain: 600/3000 (third-level)
Light Ultima: 2000/4000 (fourth-level)
He had everything now!
The Light Origin he received from the ‘seeds’ was negligible. However, this time he received six hundred points. It was a good gain.
It was an origin; Wang Teng was satisfied with the amount.
The light ultima and the light domain were new. Ferya had a strong grasp of both, so she dropped a sizable amount of related attributes. Wang Teng’s light domain jumped to the third-level, while the ultima directly shot up to the fourth-level.
The young hero’s spirit had also improved, but was still stuck at the celestial realm. He felt helpless about this.
Finally, he gained many blank attributes; 63,000 in total. It was a good amount.
He used up a fair amount of the blank attributes to tackle the Dazzling Sky move; however he managed to earn them back.
The young man was happy with his gains. He smiled.
“Since everything was solved, let’s go down,” said Ferya just then.
“Okay.” Wang Teng nodded.
“What should I do?” Radiance asked.
“I have a place for you,” Wang Teng replied after some contemplation. He planned to have the tree stay inside his Space Fragment.
He could find more spiritual plants and flowers of the light element in the future, to form some arrays and turn the fragment into an area with a high concentration of light force. That would be a great growing environment for the spirit tree.
“Wait, the Tree of Radiance is the Light Velvet people’s sacred tree. What will happen to them if you take it away?” Ferya asked all of a sudden.
Wang Teng was caught in a dilemma.
The spirit tree was probably not a good thing for the furry people.
However, it would indeed be inappropriate to simply take it away.
“That’s simple. I can leave a sapling here to let it grow. Many years in the future, the little one will become another Tree of Radiance,” Radiance suggested, “The Light Velvet people need faith. One sapling is enough.”
“Let’s do that.” Wang Teng’s eyes lit up. That was a good solution.
Radiance emitted a white light. Then, her roots started moving and emerged from the giant rock below. The tree stepped out.
That was a real Treant Protector! (A character in Dota 2 that resembles a tree.)
However, only the burnt trunk remained, making her look a bit funny.
Light glowed and a branch grew from the main body, which quickly sprouted.
The branch fell and turned into a small tree, embedding its roots on the large rock where the spirit tree used to be.
“Done!” Radiance said feebly.
Creating a new sprout required much of her origin power. Furthermore, she had already been heavily injured, making her situation worse.
Wang Teng thought for a moment, then executed a Goddess Bestowal. Light Force turned into droplets and landed on the Tree of Radiance.
The latter was shocked.
She didn’t expect him to be a light-element warrior knowledgeable in a light Force treatment skill.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFerya was equally surprised. She didn’t have that skill, but Wang Teng did.
What does he not know?
Dead bark fell from the burnt trunk and a tinge of green was revealed as the light drops merged into the tree’s main body. Tender shoots sprouted with a resplendent glow.
Radiance’s vitality wasn’t as weak anymore. She bowed at the young human and floated back into the tree.
Wang Teng placed his hand on the Tree of Radiance and made it disappear on the spot. It went to his Space Fragment.
“Space?!” Ferya blinked in astonishment. She really wanted to know where he had sent the tree, but she knew she shouldn’t ask.
A space able to keep a living creature wasn’t ordinary.
Wang Teng wouldn’t tell her about this secret.
“Let’s go.” Wang Teng didn’t care about what she was thinking.
“Okay.”
They descended the mountain.
The grand elder and the others were waiting anxiously below. The explosions and the mist were gone.
Still, they didn’t know what the outcome was.
Are Wang Teng and Ferya safe?
They were extremely worried.
Just then, two bolts of light appeared in the sky, shooting in their direction.
“Wang Teng!” Rong Li called happily when he saw the boy.
“Grand elder, Rong Li.” Wang Teng and Ferya landed and nodded at the group.
“It’s good that you’re back.” The old leader heaved a sigh of relief and sized them up. He asked with concern, “Are you hurt?”
“Nope, we’re fine.” Ferya smiled.
“I knew that they would be fine. They’re so powerful.” Rong Shan inched over.
The grand elder finally felt at ease since they were safe and sound. “Wang Teng, about Mount Saint…” He looked at them, hesitating to complete the sentence.
“You can go up now,” Wang Teng replied with a smile.
“We can go up!” The grand elder was filled with joy when he heard that piece of news. “Good, good, good!”
“You made it.” The other chiefs exchanged glances and smiled. They found it unbelievable.
The issue troubling them for three hundred years was solved by the two martial warriors in less than half a day. Their efficiency was over the roof!
Wang Teng didn’t hold back as he explained everything that happened, even the Tree of Radiance’s actions.
Ferya was surprised. She thought that the young fellow would keep that matter a secret.
“I knew there was something wrong with the sacred tree, but I never considered that it was intelligent.” The grand elder sighed.
“Unfortunately, we didn’t manage to save all the guardians. I only saved a few of them.” Wang Teng took out the guardians from his space fragment.
The grand elder’s eyes were filled with sorrow. He shook his head. “There’s nothing to blame. We’re lucky that you saved a few.”
Wang Teng continued, “The Tree of Radiance has recognized me as master; this step released them from her control. They will wake up soon.”
“It’s good that the sacred tree is no more.” The grand elder was emotional.
“The Tree of Radiance left a sprout. You still have a sacred tree,” Wang Teng said.
“No, there won’t be any sacred tree from now on.” The grand elder shook his head. “Actually, we don’t really worship the tree. Based on our history, the sacred tree was left by the gods, so we placed our faith in it. Now… there’s no point.”
“That’s good.” Wang Teng sensed the pain and agony in the elder’s voice. He must be upset because of what the tree had done.
It was probably a good thing for the tree to be gone.
Then, everyone went back to the main tribe grounds. The grand elder invited Wang Teng and Ferya to stay for a few more days, hoping to properly thank them for all they had done.
