Chapter 485: The Origin of the Divine Wood

After reaching Fu Young, it stopped moving.

Seeing this, Fu Young curiously picked it up and examined it.

Although it was so tiny that it could hardly even be called a piece of wood, it contained a far denser concentration of divine Osmanthus Tree power than the roots he had created himself.

The roots were completely unable to absorb it.

What was this?

As if she knew what Fu Young was wondering, the only surviving person nearby, the red-haired young woman, approached him after the roots finished draining away her divine power source and released her.

Like everyone else throughout the city, she had now become an ordinary mortal without any special power.

She dragged her weak, sweat-soaked body over to Fu Young, who was examining the mung-bean-sized wooden object, and said, "This is a divine persona!"

"Divine persona?" Fu Young raised an eyebrow. He took out several mid-grade spirit stones and a bottle of Rejuvenation Pills, tossing them to the red-haired young woman before saying, "Tell me everything you know about this thing, the divine persona. These things are yours. They can help you recover your body and can also be used in place of divine power."

Fu Young had just discovered something else. After he drained the divine power from the River God Domain, people within this domain could once again use storage rings, spirit stones, spells, and the methods of other cultivators.

He immediately understood.

It seemed that the reason the Myriad Gods Realm could prohibit all other powers and allow only the divine path was related to the divine power spread throughout the realm.

Once the divine power disappeared, the restrictions were lifted.

The red-haired young woman was delighted when she received the items.

Although she had possessed spirit jade and immortal jade before her reincarnation, these spirit stones and pills were the first such items to appear in the Myriad Gods Realm. More importantly, they had been personally bestowed upon her by that lord.

She was so happy that she almost wanted to die from excitement.

However, she had also been someone who had participated in battles against various forces in the Immortal Realm before her reincarnation. She would not behave like a child who became so excited that she lost all sense of reason.

Therefore, she managed to suppress the excitement surging through her heart and enthusiastically explained everything she knew to Fu Young.

"This divine persona is an important treasure for cultivating the divine path in the Myriad Gods Realm. It is necessary for taking the final step and becoming a god. Without a divine persona, a cultivator of the divine path cannot become a god."

"However, divine personas are extremely rare, which is why gods are incredibly scarce compared to the vast mortal population..."

"They are made from the divine wood of this realm..."

Through the information provided by the red-haired young woman, Fu Young learned that, an unknown amount of time ago, the Myriad Gods Realm had merely been an ordinary small world.

Then, one day, a gigantic divine wood descended from the heavens and crashed into the ground.

The moment it landed, it immediately took root and sprouted, growing rapidly until it gradually spread throughout the entire land.

The mountains, rivers, and earth covered by the divine wood’s roots and branches soon became fertile and prosperous.

People no longer needed to labor painstakingly to harvest abundant crops.

They no longer had to carefully choose their water sources either, because every source of water became clear and clean, without the slightest trace of toxicity. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

That was not all.

Several years later, the people who lived on these crops and water discovered that after their own bodies became stronger, the children they gave birth to unexpectedly possessed various extraordinary abilities.

At the same time, children who possessed these strange abilities had appearances and skin far better than their parents.

Their hair was no longer black or brown either, but came in all kinds of colors, with every imaginable shade.

Those children became the first generation of divine citizens in the Myriad Gods Realm.

At that time, everyone believed that all these changes were thanks to the gigantic tree that had descended from the heavens.

Therefore, they began calling that gigantic tree the divine wood.

They named the day when the divine wood descended from the heavens the Divine Descent Day, and everyone celebrated together.

Then, after an unknown number of years and countless accidents and wars, it became unclear whether the divine wood had become smaller or whether this world had grown larger.

Before anyone realized it, only the great nobles and those with powerful divine power had the right to live near the divine wood. Some regions were also occupied by powerful and ferocious beasts that had gained divine power.

The ordinary people with weak divine aura were forced to live farther and farther away from the divine wood.

This continued until divine aura had spread to every divine citizen, and every divine citizen was born with a source of divine power.

The era in which various divine citizens created all kinds of skills based on their own strength, collectively known as martial arts, came to an end.

This was because a powerful martial arts cultivator had violated the ancestral rule that had been passed down through the generations: the divine wood had to be protected, and not even the slightest damage could be inflicted upon it.

He secretly took a piece of the divine wood and conducted experiments and research on it.

Eventually, he created divine personas and established the path of becoming a god.

By using the connection between the divine persona and the divine wood, he could absorb the powerful divine power within the divine wood, allowing himself to become increasingly similar to the divine wood’s power.

He became the first god in the Myriad Gods Realm.

At that time, he was the strongest existence, and even now, he remained the strongest existence, the Wood God King.

After the Wood God King established the path of becoming a god, he unified the Wood God Continent and established a divine kingdom.
