Astral Ants

Using the forest symbiosis as a medium, the cypress tree extends the carrier of reincarnation and rebirth from "water" to the dual system of "water and wood".

It's like entering a new world.

unstoppable.

Eat simply, restore your physical strength, and quickly restore your original energy.
Longbai rose into the air again, and his body disintegrated into countless particles of dust, which fell to the ground.

On the top of Xianglan Mountain, soil and rocks surged, forming a gray-white oval stone cocoon about four or five meters long.

The force of nature gathered in an abnormally calm manner at an incredibly fast speed.

The stone cocoon blooms with ten colors of light.

The brilliance is restrained and forms energy patterns.

The cocoon breaks.

The cypress tree breaks out of its cocoon.

"Long Bai?"

Molan and Bai Wei noticed the commotion and rushed over.

Bai Wei asked incredulously: "Captain Longbai, are you at the second level of reincarnation? Moreover, you have broken through the limitations of 'water' and integrated your 'self' into the entire world of life?"

"I have barely reached that level..."

Longbai shook his tentacles. "The power at the star level can only leave the mark of the 'self' within a limited range each time. It is still far from covering a planet with life."

Mo Lan immediately said: "I know this! The realm has surpassed the level of evolution."

Mo Lan raised his paw and pointed at the sky, and asked: "Great Chief Longbai, since we can be reborn with the help of the environment of water, wood, earth and stone, then can we also be reborn from the ashes of fire? There! The flames of the stars are the most intense, why don't you give it a try?"

"..."

Long Bai heard the jealous malice and tilted his head, not wanting to speak.

Bai Wei asked, "Captain Longbai, are philosophical books really useful?"

"It's useful..."

Long Bai shook his antennae and said, "I directly obtained the highest level of 'Reincarnation Power'. President Bai Wei, you are at the Star Realm level, with the most basic 'Rebirth' ability. You and I are in different situations."

Bai Wei was choked and speechless.

Longbai said to Molan, "The knowledge compasses collected by Yu Teng are the essence of the thoughts of the major civilizations in the old universe. They are indeed useful. Molan, you should read them more often when you have nothing to do. First, expand your thinking, cultivate your mind, and realize your true self. After you get the white crystal fruit and obtain the power of reincarnation, you will be able to master it directly."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Molan agreed perfunctorily and asked, "The ability of reincarnation has been perfected. The next step is to integrate the ten abilities. Has the Brilliant Transformation evolved?"

Long Bai: "The plan is this..."

Molan: "What about the changes?"

Long Bai: "I never thought that I could comprehend the power of reincarnation and reach the second level of success without any effort. So, I think I can spend more time to study this ability..."

"Ah~yo~yo~yo"

"show off!"

Mo Lan waved her tentacles and said, "President Bai Wei, ignore it, let's continue!"

Bai Wei was not very happy either, and disappeared in space teleportation.

"What's so rare?"

"Go away. Go away."

Molan waved her tentacles to disperse the surrounding insects, then walked away on the glorious throne.

"..."

Longbai waved its tentacles.

The cedar, giant cedar, blackthorn and other insects that had just been driven away came back again.

"Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, king!"

"The Second King is too jealous."

"President Bai Wei is also not convinced."

"Not a bug that can accomplish anything great."

"..."

Long Bai raised his claws to interrupt and said:

"I intend to try to comprehend the state of 'self' further, which may lead to destructive energy, so I need to change places."

"The Second King is unreliable. Giant Cypress, Juniper, Green Cypress, White Willow, Wulunzhu, you must be alert and guard Xianglan Mountain."

"understand!"

"Ok!"

"Understood, my king."

The insects agreed.

Long Bai controlled the half-ant artist to travel through space, walk and stop, and observe from high altitude. He first visited all 28 life planets in the Bauhinia star system, and randomly left the mark of his "self".

Then head to the nearest primary source star system where Zerg warriors gather: the White Eucalyptus star system
Visit the eighteen life planets one by one, observe the mountain and water scenery, enter a mysterious realm where I become one with nature, and leave traces of my 'self'.

After that, we will head to the next first-level source star system: the Polei star system.
Presetting the resurrection point for reincarnation is also a way to exercise your abilities, but it feels weird, like a beast marking its territory...

There is currently only one third-level source point in the Fengyan Star Region, eight second-level source points, and the number of first-level source points has been increasing. At present, the star map is clearly marked, showing the precise coordinates, and the number of public sources is 844, of which 817 have been built into star systems.

It is planned to build a first-level source star system with life planets for Zerg warriors to settle down. There are as many as 574 first-level source star systems, which can be entered and exited at will.

Longbai visited each tree one by one.

...

Baiyanshu star system,

The Force concentration is 2.6, and a secondary source star system with 31 life-bearing planets was built.

It was developed and constructed early and has a high occupancy rate. It is a rare prosperous large settlement in the entire White Crystal Galaxy with a permanent insect population of about 1.5 million.

sunny day,

The beast turned into a white cloud, carrying the dragon cypress, floating a thousand meters in the sky, drifting slowly with the breeze.

Unconsciously, I entered the commercial district of the star system.

The shops and streets are crisscrossed in an orderly manner, and there are bustling Zerg warriors. The sound of shells colliding can be heard from a thousand meters in the air.

Fengyan Star Domain is one of the most prosperous commercial areas. Long Bai aimed at the square and controlled the beast to slowly descend, preparing to go out for a walk on the street.

Suddenly, a wonderful feeling flashed through my heart.

Long Bai was startled.
The sinking white clouds then stopped.

Just now, for a moment, in a trance, I seemed to feel a different kind of life force.

Unique and transcendent life characteristics,
It is not a single life system, it seems to be a different kind of energy.

Long Bai's eyes were bright, but he soon calmed down.

During the more than 300 years of traveling, I have been thinking and trying to understand: What force supports my reincarnation in the world of life?

Long Bai was very sure that such a force must exist.

I am very sure that what I sensed at that moment was exactly the hidden power that I predicted.

unfortunately,

That state of induction came too suddenly and went away too quickly.

Long Bai was stunned for a long time, unable to find that feeling anymore, and tried to activate his intelligent brain ability.

The intelligent brain performs calculations and analyses based on existing information, and is of no use in perceiving this kind of mysterious and unfamiliar power.

Long Bai cleared his mind and held his breath to concentrate.

White clouds slowly rise,

Then it slowly descended.

The feeling just now did not appear.

The white clouds rise again, and then fall again...

Repeated several times,

In the commercial district, a team of native flame spider warriors in charge of public security noticed something strange over the square and surrounded them.

"My ant friend, what are you hesitating about?"

"This is the intersection of the Star Network channels. Please make way and don't get stuck here and interfere with the Star Spider's positioning."

"Uh~Okay!"

"I can sense your energy aura. I know you have reached the Stellar Realm and are ready to transform? Are you here to bid for the World Gem?"

"Seeing the many insects below, are you hesitating?"

"Yeah!"

"Isn't it a bug from the Baiyanshu star system?"

"No~"

"Then why are you hesitating? Since you're here, why would you come here for nothing?"

"Go down. Go down."

"At least we can join in the fun."

"Get down quickly."

The five original spider warriors urged.

Longbai took back the beast, flapped its wings, and was about to leave when, in a trance, that strange state appeared again.

The five original spider warriors who maintain order are all from the Su realm.
A faint, obscure force with distinct individual life characteristics is released from them and merges into the transcendent life force that fills the entire world.

"It turns out to be the Force Life, a derivative force of the life energy field!"

A term emerged in Longbai's mind: the gem of the world!
The derivation principle of world gems: [The invisible energy fields released by powerful force life interweave with each other to form a world force field, which affects the rules of the world and then gives rise to derivations]

Long Bai suddenly realized and had a deeper understanding.

Not only powerful Force life forms, but all life forms will release this "life energy field". The difference lies in the strength. The higher the level of evolution of the Force life forms, the stronger the invisible energy field.

"Ant?"

"What are you doing standing still?"

"Get down quickly!"

"If you hesitate any longer, you won't be able to get a ticket."

The original spider warrior urged again. "..."

Long Bai's figure flashed, and with a flash of lightning, he hovered above the wide road outside the commercial district.

On the left is the commercial district where millions of Zerg warriors gather.

On the right is the settlement of a large tribe, where a large number of force plants with evolutionary levels above the Star Realm, or even the Su Realm, are planted.

Longbai captured and maintained that extraordinary state, and continued to sense it.
Clear boundaries:

In the commercial area on the left, the Zerg warriors released a kind of "Zerg energy field".

On the right side, and in other surrounding residential areas, another kind of 'plant energy field' is released.

These 'energy fields' will generate an energy that is similar to the Force, but higher than the Force, and has extremely high fluidity and penetration.

Two completely different energies converge and merge, forming a non-living, extraordinary energy with transcendental life characteristics.

It is probably this kind of power that prompted the emergence of world gems.

It is also with the assistance of this power that the ability of reincarnation can be completed without the need for cocoons or the aid of life seeds.

The power of laws can only be produced in a living world where life thrives.

Long Bai shook his head to divert his attention and release the status.

That 'power of world laws' disappeared from the perception.

Long Bai cleared his mind, concentrated his spirit, and easily entered the state again, feeling the 'power of the world's laws' again.

Thoughts turned quickly,

Try to absorb this power.

The level is too high and out of control.

Repeated attempts, intelligent brain deduction...

Intelligent brains can’t help, never.

The five original spider warriors who were maintaining order chased after them again.

"what--"

"You ant, you are not here to bid for the world's gems, are you?"

"No! No!"

"Judging from your mental state, it seems like some of your abilities have suddenly made a breakthrough?"

"Don't stand in the way here."

"To comprehend this ability, you should go to outer space or the Arctic wilderness."

"This is the main traffic route in and out of the trade zone, don't block the way!"

"..."

Long Bai collected his thoughts and remained speechless.

I just realized an ability...

You five stupid spiders are chasing me and interrupting me, right?
A light flashed in Long Bai's mind, and he had an idea: the gem of the world!
The star-spot on the forehead shone brightly, and a drop of ten-colored liquid emerged, expanded, and flowed to cover the whole body. The figure disappeared on the spot, leaving the five spiders staring at each other in shock:
——Space ability!
——What kind of ant is this?
...

Arctic glacier.

Just as Long Bai expected, due to the ultra-high fluidity, the "power of world laws" is evenly distributed on the life planet and dissipates outside the planet.

It is not controlled and cannot be actively absorbed. However, there will be an extremely weak force of the world law that passes through the shell and enters the body, and will be absorbed by the body, but it is too weak, and normal insects cannot feel the change at all.

Longbai randomly selected an iceberg, hid deep inside, and opened up a nest chamber. The space in front of him rippled slightly, and three hundred world gems of various shapes and sizes appeared and floated in front of him.

really,

World gems have a natural 'gravity' on the power of world laws.

The world gem will attract the power of the world's laws and gather around it.

The cypress raised its claws,

A ray of gray-black energy appeared, covering the surface of the World Gem.

It does not affect the 'gravity' of the world gem on the power of the world's laws.

Open your mouth,

Three hundred world gems were swallowed into his stomach.

really,

The power of the surrounding world laws was affected by the world gem, and gathered around Longbai in large quantities, penetrated through the shell into the body, and was then absorbed by the body.

It works!

But the concentration is still too low, it just needs to be doubled.

Long Bai controlled the titanium sand to condense into a round bead and took it back into the Shanglu space.

Calming the mind, no noticeable changes.

The dragon cypress's mind started to work, its carapace cracked, and it quickly completed a molting. Its body length increased from the normal 4 meters to over 6 meters, doubling its entire size.

He took out five hundred world gems in one breath, protected them with the power of original energy, and put them into his stomach.

The results were immediate.

The density of the power of the world's laws that converge into the body reaches about 4 times that of the natural environment.

It’s still not enough, far from enough.

Long Bai spat out the World Gem, and successively ate nearly a hundred White Refining Pearls that he carried with him, resting and recovering.

Activate the ability to expand the cave space.

get ready.

Actively activate the adaptive ability again and shed the shell to change.

The body length expands to over ten meters, changing into a bloated and rounded shape, with a greatly increased abdominal capacity, and no longer secreting digestive substances that dissolve everything.

Ever since Long Bai got rich on Red Robin Star, he has been keeping world gems worth over 300 billion on his body. He gave a few away by using his connections, and gave some out as rewards to his soldiers. He kept more than 200 billion worth of gems for himself, including about 1500 gems of all kinds, big and small, valuable and worthless, and he swallowed them all in one go.

The power of the world's laws gathered around the body reached over 6 times that of the natural environment.

New problems then arise.

The body's ability to passively absorb this high-level law power is limited...

Longbai fell silent, silently appreciating.

...

[Time: 78th Era-194 Yuan-115 Years]

In a hidden cave deep in the glacier,
After nearly a hundred years of silence, Longbai finally analyzed some of the characteristics of the power of the world's laws:
First, this power is not native to the universe, but is derived from the interweaving of the ten types of force life energy fields in nature. Its essence is still the force, but it has undergone transformation and sublimation through many life forms.

It can be speculated and confirmed that other life races outside of the natural god system can also derive the "power of world laws" or similar power.

Secondly, after the body absorbs this power, it can obtain an amplification and enhancement that is very different from the conventional ten-series energy. It enhances the sense of existence and independence of "me" as a living being in the world of life and in the universe.

Compared with the vast universe, individual life is as small and weak as a grain of sand or a meteorite, and its existence is infinitely close to zero.

However, the power of the world's laws can strengthen and enhance the sense of existence of tiny individual lives, making them brighter and no longer dispensable.

Third, if one could manipulate this "power of world laws", one should be able to gain the ability to endow matter with "life characteristics", and when combined with the conventional ten types of energy, one could even achieve "creation".

World Gems and Reincarnation both involve this 'creation' property...

Longbai talked to the White Crystal God Tree twice, and it mentioned "creation" both times. It must be able to feel the "power of the world's laws", but for some reason, it did not recommend Longbai to take this path. Maybe it felt that this power was too difficult to comprehend and master, or maybe it felt that it was not suitable, or that it was not powerful enough...

The 'Sea of ​​Death' constructed by the Holy Butterfly Tribe is the opposite of the world of life, and thus derives the 'power of the law of death' that is opposite in nature to the 'power of the law of the world'.

Opposite in nature, similar in essence.

The power of world laws is superior to all ten systems.

The Sea of ​​Death was integrated into the power of the water element, making this power controllable and easy to absorb.

Long Bai found an idea. A similar method, if he could integrate the power of the world's laws into 'water' or other elemental substances, wouldn't it be possible to manipulate it?

Or, elemental substances are not necessarily required as the medium!
It can also be achieved through a certain ability;

It is also possible to improve the efficiency of absorption and digestion through other means, such as actively changing one's own blood constitution to adapt to evolution...

Theoretically, there are many ways!

To trace back to its essence, the 'power of world laws' is a kind of alien force that has been transformed and sublimated by all living things.

With this cognitive information,

Long Bai tried different methods while activating his super brain ability to analyze and calculate.

Thirty years have passed before I knew it.
Suddenly one day, Longbai's sparkling eyes focused, its drooping tentacles slowly raised, and it opened its mouth, spitting out the world gem in its belly.

Eat to recover and adjust your condition.

Ten colored water drops float out from the forehead, changing the artist.

The artist's armor decomposes, falls off, and is reclaimed in the Shanglu space.

A purple technological star core emerges from the artist's forehead and is placed in the corner of the cave.

A crack appeared on the carapace of the cypress tree, and it shed its huge old shell, returning to its size of over four meters.

Eat, rest, and shed your shell again...

An off-white, round and bloated ant larva, more than four meters long, crawled out of the shell, and looked like a stream of water, with strong fluctuations of water element power in its body.

With one thought, the artist collapsed and turned into flowing water, which quickly shrank into a drop of azure water and seeped into the larvae...

Longbai used his adaptive evolutionary abilities to the extreme, regressing his life form to the larval stage, and reversely deduced and imitated the innate god '獉', devouring the innate essence of the 獉.

There is no day or night, no four seasons, in the deep caves of the Arctic glacier.

Time flows quietly,

Three long years.
Finally one day, the snow-white ant larvae spun silk and made cocoons.

Another three years,
The cypress broke out of its cocoon, and its new shell hardened quickly, transforming into an azure blue ant.

A strong aura of the innate water deity.

Long Bai turned his gaze and looked at the world gems piled in the corner of the cave. With a thought, the gems flew up and embedded themselves into the surrounding ground.

The free forces of the world's laws were attracted and gathered around.

Longbai tried,

Sure enough, with the current 'semi-innate divine body', superimposed with the adjustment of blood constitution to adapt to evolution, it can actively absorb the power of the world's laws, and the digestion capacity has increased significantly.

From passive to active, an essential change.

Following this line of thought, continue to adjust and optimize. (End of this chapter)
