Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Groot Treeman trainee priests also have a similar saying of 'bathing and fasting' before baptism.

It's just that the 'bathing and fasting' here is to meditate in a specific environment to purify the soul, and the purpose is to feel the gift of the 'Mother Goddess of All Things', so that one can receive blessings more wholeheartedly during baptism!
The duration of the 'bathing fast' is generally three days, which is why Lando's baptism was placed three days later.

Early the next morning, Lando was led by an attendant to a forest full of tall trees.

The trees here are a bit like oak trees, each of which contains a strong breath of life.

Their existence makes the overall concentration of life breath in the surrounding area five or six times that of the outside world!
Lando could feel his body jumping for joy because of these breaths of life.

The powerful transformation ability of [Heart Universe·Book of Vientiane] makes him have all the special features of Groot Treeman.

Therefore, he can also enjoy the environment that is beneficial to the tree people of Groot.

Arriving at the center of the forest, it seems that a large amount of life energy has been bound in this small area after a special arrangement, and the concentration of life breath has increased by five or six times compared to the outside of the forest, which is already about [-] times that of the outside world !

In such an environment with a high concentration of life breath, some of the natural abilities of the Groot treant were greatly strengthened, and Lando could feel the natural breath, the pulsation of heaven and earth!

There is a sense of awareness that life is being conceived, and a sense of the world is born in the soul!
Lando is like a normal Groot treeman, immersed in this environment that blends into nature and heaven and earth.

Three days passed in a flash.

Lando was awakened by a gentle call, without resistance, he followed the call, and when he came back to his senses, he saw the sacrificial priest who greeted him when he first came to the main temple, who was smiling look at him.

Lando pretended to have just realized it, and with a bit of embarrassment, he hurriedly said hello: "Master Maruo Shengji, hello!"

Maro nodded with a smile, feeling the abundant and rich aura of life in Lando, and said with satisfaction: "You are not bad! Lando, you are the best boy I have seen in thousands of years!"

Lando said reservedly: "Master Maro, you're too proud!"

Maro said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the holy pool for baptism!"

Under the leadership of Maro, the two walked all the way to the core of the main temple complex.

Walked for more than half an hour.

During the period, the two of them didn't have nothing to do, and Maro instilled many things in the temple to Lando, including many precautions, taboos, and some secrets.

It also includes references to baptisms.

Lando naturally showed a respectful listening attitude.

This also makes Marlowe more satisfied.

Soon, the two came to the core area of ​​the main temple complex, and led by Maro, they walked into a large hall hundreds of meters high.

The palace is extremely empty, and any slight noise can trigger a series of echoes.

In the center of the palace, a giant tree was planted, the top of which almost touched the roof of the palace.

Looking carefully, Lando found that the appearance of the giant tree in front of him was extremely similar to the immortal giant tree called the 'Mother Goddess' that he saw outside. …

It is also the main trunk with entangled branches. The roots at the bottom penetrate deeply into the earth, absorbing energy and nutrients. The forked branches at the top extend out, growing round leaves with distinct layers.

Of course, there are no different civilization ecology on these circular leaves.

In front of this giant tree, several roots are entangled in a depression, forming a small natural pool, which is filled with a liquid that exudes glistening brilliance.

These brilliance are mainly green, but also contain a variety of different shades.

The small pool is not too big, but if you squeeze it, it should be no problem to accommodate a hundred Groot treemen.

Now only Lando enjoys it.

Maro bowed to the giant tree reverently, and Lando naturally followed suit.

After finishing, Maro nodded to Lando, then left the palace and closed the door.

Lando, who had been told the precautions on the way here, was not surprised.

In Groot's cognition, baptism is an extremely sacred thing, and it is a process of facing the "Mother Goddess of All Things".

In this case, it is forbidden for others to disturb!
Of course, the so-called baptism does not have the concept of success or failure. It is basically equivalent to a kind of benefit of becoming an official priest. How much benefit you can get depends on yourself, so naturally you don't need others to supervise.

Moreover, those who can become priests, at least those who have a devout belief in the 'Mother Goddess of All Things', do not need to take precautions.

The 'pious' Lando looked at the core node of the completely undefended leaf world, and shook his head speechlessly.

Without hesitation, he walked directly into the pool.

Immediately, [Heart Universe·Book of Vientiane] greedily and crazily asked for it like a glutton after seeing delicious food.

The pool water began to drop rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This made Lando frown, he came here to plan the entire "Mother Goddess of Everything", if it is exposed because of some small flaws, then it is really picking sesame seeds and losing watermelons!
Resist [Heart Universe·Book of Vientiane]'s request for water from the pool.

Only then did Lando notice that once the water in the pool drops, the giant tree will continuously absorb energy to supplement and generate new water in the pool.

Keeping the engulfment of [Heart Universe·Book of Vientiane] at the same rate as the generation speed of the pool water, Lando no longer cares about it, but is ready to do something serious!

Gently tapped on the body, and suddenly another wave of consciousness quickly recovered.

The next moment, the small vines came out from the gap in Lando's body.

Before coming, just in case, Lando let the little vine split into a deep sleep, and this, coupled with his active cover, could effectively prevent the little guy from being discovered in advance.

Now it seems that he was worrying too much. After all, whether it is the priest or the holy sacrifices, they are only around the level of 'not bad'.

However, be careful not to make a big mistake!
The little vine split that woke up from a deep sleep was a little confused at first, but it soon regained its vigor.

The little guy excitedly left Lando's body and swam in the pool, seeming very comfortable.

Then, it noticed the giant tree in front of it, and immediately swam over and wrapped it around Lando's arm, expressing a urging emotion and looking impatient. …

Lando squeezed the little guy's body, and said amusedly, "Go, go! This is for you!"

The little guy cheered, "呲熘" jumped out, came to the giant tree, activated his parasitic talent, and burrowed directly into the giant tree's body!

The main goal was achieved, Lando nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his attention back to himself.

To his surprise, the pool of water in front of him is extremely beneficial to the genetic force system. Compared with simply absorbing the power of various dimensional worlds, these pools of water are easier to absorb, and absorbing them also makes the genetic strength increase faster!
At the same time, the pool water is also beneficial to the awakening of consciousness. While the body cells are absorbing the pool water, Lando can obviously feel that the speed of consciousness awakening has also increased a little!
Really good baby!

As he absorbed the water from the pool, Lando could feel that he was gradually connected to a vast consciousness, and it became closer and closer.

Of course, this connection is only maintained on the basis of his use of the 'everything body' to disguise changes, which is equivalent to the 'virus' fooling the opponent's instinctive defense.

Only he is stealing the opponent's power without giving anything!

The reason why this happens is that apart from Lando's brilliant disguise, the main reason is that this 'Mother Goddess of All Things' does not restrict the internal flow of her own energy too much.

In fact, the development and reproduction of various civilizations in the world of leaves is also a kind of growth for the "Mother Goddess of All Things".

All the supernatural beings, including the Groot treant, survive by absorbing the energy of the 'Mother Goddess', but when they die, everything will return to the 'Mother Goddess', which is a natural cycle!

Not to mention the powerful magnetic field of life shrouded in the periphery of the 'Goddess of All Things', it is almost impossible for the life inside to break through.

So what if you break through?
Don't forget, the region where the 'Mother Goddess of All Things' takes root is the fringe between river systems!

For these primitive civilizations without space-time wormhole technology, once they break away from the 'Mother Goddess of All Things', it is impossible to survive until they find the river system!
According to Lando's previous investigations, among all civilizations, the strongest is only the 'immortal' realm, and there is no trace of the existence of the 'immortal' realm.

This may be due to the intentional or unintentional restriction of the "Mother Goddess of All Things"!
Lando was careful to hide it, and what he was afraid of was not these indigenous civilizations, but the 'Mother Goddess of All Things' itself!
Anyway, it can be delayed as long as it can now. First, let the small vines parasitize silently for a period of time. Once exposed, they will be strongly resisted by the "Mother Goddess of All Things". The progress by then may not be as fast as it is now.

It will not be too late to use tough measures at that time!

Soon, the day passed.

Lando, who was in meditation, was awakened by the sound of the palace gate opening.

Maro looked at Lando whose breath had changed drastically, and said with a smile, "How's the harvest?"

Lando nodded slightly, knowing what Marlowe was asking, so he said, "I feel it!"

What I feel here is naturally the 'Mother Goddess of All Things'.

Maro showed joy, and saluted the giant tree respectfully, chanting words, all of which were words of thanks for the bestowal. …

Lando felt a little helpless, and had to do the same.

After some routine prayers, the two left the palace.

Maro said with emotion: "For most priests, there is only one chance to be baptized once in a lifetime, but you are different!"

He stared at Lando with burning eyes, and continued: "If you can become a holy sacrifice, you will have another chance to be baptized, and you will also be blessed by the 'Mother Goddess of All Things'!"

Lando immediately vowed: "Don't worry, Lord Marlowe, I will definitely work hard!"

Maro nodded with a smile, his face full of admiration.

The next step is the regular ten-year formal priesthood training, which is something that every apprentice priest needs to experience after being promoted to become a full-fledged priest.

Although ten years is an extremely short period of time for the long-lived tree man Groot, it doesn't matter to Lando!

Because the parasitism of the small vine splits, no matter how secretive it is, it will be discovered sooner or later, at least two or three years, or as many as four or five years, and then it will naturally turn its face directly!

In this way, Lando started his learning journey as a formal priest, and met other formal priests at the same time.

Although we all study together most of the time, because of Lando's strong relationship with the "sacred scroll", from time to time some high-ranking officials of the temple and even holy priests will come to give him a small talk.

Plus there are a few perks...

For example, in the woods where he 'bathed and fasted', he could go there for one day every month!
For example, the place of residence is second only to those of the priests, and is very close to the core area of ​​the main temple, where the breath of the "mother of all things" is more intense.

For example, food on weekdays is a special crop grown near the main vein, which not only has more varieties, but also contains more energy!
……

In this way, a year passed by.

In the room, Lando seemed to be meditating with his eyes closed, but he was actually digesting the energy transmitted by the split vines!
After a year of silent erosion and infiltration, the little guy's parasitic entry has taken a big step forward.

Special treasures like baptismal water can already be partially called.

So Lando enjoyed the unlimited baptism treatment!

[The Book of Heart Universe·Vientiane] Naturally, anyone who comes is always welcome, eat as much as you have!

After these years of digestion, Dinghai Shenzhu and Lanshan have already become a part of Lando's body, and now "Wanxiang Guiyi" is digesting [Wan Lei] and some treasures in "Infinite Arena".

Originally, according to Lando's original intention, he actually wanted to digest [Giant Soldier] 'Hercules'.

This [Giant God Soldier] with two logos of 'General' and 'Hero', once digested, has a high probability of directly advancing Lando's strength to the high level of 'Immortal'!

Even if it can't reach more than 90% of consciousness awakening, at least 85% or more must be there!
It's a pity that [Heart Universe·Book of Vientiane] can't accommodate 'Hercules' at the moment, and Lando can only hold back this idea temporarily.

Opening his eyes from meditation, Lando raised his eyebrows slightly.

This time, during the energy transfer process of the small vine split, there was also a message attached...

It seems that the 'Mother Goddess of All Things' has noticed something wrong, and the little guy feels that the day when he is discovered is not far away.

The unexpected sharpness of the 'Mother Goddess of All Things' does not seem to be consistent with his initial prediction that the former only has some basic intelligence.

Think of the way that the other party seems to be deliberately suppressing the development of civilization.

perhaps……

Without thinking for too long, Lando got up and went to the study palace.

What surprised him was that the number of priests he saw on the road seemed to be much less, and occasionally he met one who seemed to be in a hurry.

When he arrived at the study palace, he heard a group of official priests who also came to study discussing something enthusiastically.

After listening carefully for a while, he said to himself strangely:
"war?!"
