Natural God's Gift

On the vast sea, the baby blue whale chased after a school of fish, leisurely eating the straggling small fish at the back. Suddenly, it heard a long, drawn-out horn sound, a sound so alluring, as if it were constantly calling to it.

It remembered hearing this sound yesterday, but it quickly faded away, and it didn't understand what was happening. Perhaps its mother would know?

Just as it was thinking this, a loud 'boom' echoed across the sea. A giant beast, hundreds of meters long, shot up from underwater, cutting off the fleeing school of fish in the middle and swallowing most of them in one gulp.

The remaining half of the school panicked and swam back, only to have thousands of their kin swallowed by the baby whale's large mouth, but fortunately, most of the fish managed to escape.

After swallowing a large portion of the school, the giant beast floated horizontally on the surface, a plume of water shooting from its blowholes.

The pinkish-white baby whale showed no fear of the giant beast, instead swimming around it and constantly nuzzling against it.

The hundred-meter-long giant beast possessed a deep blue body and a slender, powerful tail. A gentle flick of its tail could create a small whirlpool in the sea. Upon closer inspection, it was clear that, like the baby whale, it was also a blue whale, but an adult blue whale warrior radiating a thick aura of Primal Force.

"Mommy," the baby whale swam to its mother's head and rubbed against the blue whale warrior. Unlike other ordinary whales covered in barnacles, its body surface had no traces of marine life attached. This was because all attachments were cleared away by its Primal Force, allowing the baby whale to press its tender skin against its mother's body.

"What's wrong, baby?" The blue whale warrior's mental thoughts were not as vast and ferocious as its physical size, but instead revealed a mother's gentleness and kindness.

"Just now, I felt a mental thought, like it was summoning me."

The baby whale nudged its mother's belly with its head, playfully spinning in circles in the water.

"Mental thought?" The blue whale warrior blew a long plume of water from its blowhole. Just now, it had also vaguely felt a mental thought being transmitted across the sea. However, it was in the deep sea at the time, and despite rushing up with all its might, it hadn't noticed anything unusual after surfacing. It hadn't expected the baby to have sensed the mental thought as well.

The blue whale warrior slightly raised its head, looking towards the direction from which the mental thought originated. That area should be land. The land was under the control of the Natural True God, and it nurtured the descendants of the Natural True God. The Primal Force warriors living in the ocean generally had little interaction with the Primal Force creatures on land.

"Don't worry about it. Are you full yet?" As the largest Primal Force warrior in the astral realm, it basically had nothing to fear, especially from those on land.

The baby whale whined, "Mommy, I want to eat Primal Force food."

The blue whale warrior gently swayed its tail, "You can't eat too much. We need to conserve it. I'll find the Shore Isopod Tribe to exchange for another batch of Primal Force food when they have a summer harvest."

Ordinary insectoid warriors calculated their consumption of Primal Force food by the piece, but with the baby whale's massive body, a single meal of Primal Force food could easily be calculated in kilograms. Even if the blue whale warrior exchanged a lot of Primal Force food with the insectoids, it still couldn't keep up with its appetite.

The baby whale was a little aggrieved, "Mommy, when will I grow up? I want to eat God-Given Primal Force food."

The blue whale warrior comforted it, "You can when you grow up a little more, you little glutton. How about I find the Giant Isopod Tribe to exchange for some God-Given Kelp for you in the spring?"

"Okay, okay, I want to eat God-Given Kelp."

"Then let's go back to the nest."

"Back to the nest, back to the nest! I want to see if the God-Given Seed can be harvested."

The baby whale took the lead and dove underwater, the blue whale warrior following behind, slowly descending.

After a long time, the two blue whales, one large and one small, sank into an abyss a thousand meters below the sea. At the bottom of the abyss, a group of lanternfish swam carefree in the water, bringing a bit of light to the dark abyss. In the dim light, one could see that the bottom of the abyss was like a vast seabed plain, covered with countless varieties of seaweed, almost completely covering the entire plain.

"Blue Tear Algae, I'm back!" The baby whale swam into a forest of algae that emitted a faint blue light, happily wagging its tail.

The algae forest occupied tens of square kilometers, and the long, ribbon-like algae leaves even extended hundreds of meters towards the surface of the sea. The entire forest was incredibly dense, with occasional flashes of light-blue glow, making it extremely mysterious. Even the baby whale, with its massive body, instantly disappeared from sight when it entered.

At this moment, the entire algae forest emitted a mental thought: "Naughty little whale, be careful, or you'll get entangled in my algae leaves again."

"Oh," the baby whale seemed to remember something terrible, and its body shivered in the cold seawater, immediately becoming much more well-behaved.

Who could have imagined that this vast underwater forest was actually a God-Given Seed? Moreover, it was a King-Rank Wild God-Given Seed, even larger than the God-Given Seeds on land by countless times.

The blue whale warrior swam freely in the water, patrolling its territory. This abyss had existed since the last Primal Force Era. Even during the Primal Force dormancy period, Primal Force seeped up from the ground, maintaining a rich Primal Force environment in the abyss and giving rise to the Blue Tear Algae, this marine God-Given Seed. Subsequently, a Sea Lettuce God-Given Seed and a Gracilaria God-Given Seed were born, both of which were seaweed with extremely considerable yields.

Not long after this Primal Force cycle began, the blue whale warrior broke into this abyss and evolved all the way, relying on these three God-Given Seeds, to become a giant dominating the ocean. Now its offspring had become a small warrior, but the Primal Force contained within the King-Rank God-Given Primal Force food was too powerful and not suitable for the small warrior to eat. It could only use the King-Rank God-Given Primal Force food to exchange for ordinary Primal Force food with the insectoids, and then feed it to the baby whale.

The blue whale warrior hovered above the algae forest, gently fanning its fins, and a questioning message was transmitted through its mental thoughts: "Blue Tear Algae, when we went to the surface to hunt today, we felt a mental thought on the coast summoning us. You have broad knowledge, do you know what's going on?"

"Summoning you? Tell me more about it."

The Blue Tear Algae had lived in this abyss for tens of thousands of years. It had awakened its mental power in the previous Primal Force Era. It had experienced many stories. The sea beast warriors had no inherited memories, and it was the one teaching the blue whale warrior how to do many things, including how to cultivate small warriors and how to trade with insectoid warriors. Therefore, the blue whale warrior respected it very much.

"I was at the bottom of the sea at the time, and I vaguely heard a mental thought calling to me. By the time I rushed to the surface, the sound had disappeared. At first, I thought it was my illusion, but the baby also said it heard the summons. I was wondering if this matter might be unusual?"

The Blue Tear Algae pondered, recalling and searching for similar experiences in its long memory.

"Based on your descriptions, I think it is very similar to the ability of something that appeared in the past."

"What thing?"

"The Sea God's Horn."

The blue whale warrior eagerly inquired, "The Sea God's Horn? Is it related to the Sea God?"

“Indeed,” said Blue Tear Algae, “Legend says the True God of Nature governs the land, and the Sea God protects the ocean. The Horn of the Sea God is a gift from the Sea God to the True God of Nature.”

“A gift from the Sea God to the True God of Nature?” The Blue Whale Warrior was shocked. “But I heard from the Zerg warriors that the True God of Nature lives on the sun. If the Horn of the Sea God is a gift between gods, then why would it appear in the Star Realm?”

Blue Tear Algae said calmly, “Listen to me. After the Sea God gave the Horn of the Sea God to the True God of Nature, the True God of Nature gave it to His most favored descendants. Since then, the Horn of the Sea God has remained in the Force Star Realm. In countless cycles, only the most favored descendants of the True God of Nature can become the master of the Horn of the Sea God. According to the agreement between the Sea God and the True God of Nature, the Zerg who controls the Horn of the Sea God is the most honored guest of the Sea Tribe warriors in the ocean.”

The Blue Whale Warrior wasn't stupid. It inferred, “So, a descendant favored by the True God of Nature has been born in the Force Star Realm, and it has become the master of the Horn of the Sea God?”

“Probably so.”

“Then should we obey the Sea God's instructions and listen to the summons of the master of the Horn of the Sea God? It's on land, and we're in the sea. Even if we listen to its summons, what can we do?” The Blue Whale Warrior was free and at ease in the ocean and didn't really want to listen to the so-called summons of the master of the Horn of the Sea God.

“I don't know about that,” Blue Tear Algae couldn't decide the Blue Whale Warrior's thoughts. “However, I, as an alga, suggest you try to contact it first. Don't you want the whale baby to surpass you? As far as I know, there are countless times more Force foods on land than in the sea. You might be able to exchange for enough food for the whale baby to evolve.

Moreover, the Zerg warriors recognized by the Horn of the Sea God are exceptionally powerful and wealthy. If you can build a good relationship with them, it might be possible for you to surpass the King level. Perhaps the Sea God's guidance is for you to hear the call of the Horn of the Sea God.”

“Powerful and wealthy?” The Blue Whale Warrior wiggled its huge fins in confusion. “Are there any warriors in the Force Star Realm more powerful than me?”

“The power I'm talking about isn't just physical.” Blue Tear Algae knew that the Blue Whale Warrior had only been born for a few hundred years and had no inherited memories. It was just a lone fish wandering in the sea with very limited knowledge.

So, it specially explained to the Blue Whale Warrior, “Although you have the two major talents of Strength and Water, you are not invincible.

On the continent, there are countless unique God-given Fruits, called Divine God-given Fruits. These fruits can give creatures talents or abilities that they don't inherently possess. In the last Force cycle, when this place was still the Abyss Kingdom, a Zerg came here as a guest. It reached six-elemental talents through acquired consumption of Divine Fruits. Even the King-level Whale Shark Warrior was no match for it.”

“Eating fruits to increase talents? Six elements? Even the King-level Whale Shark isn't its match?” The Blue Whale Warrior listened in astonishment. If it weren't for the fact that this was said by the Blue Tear Algae, which had lived for tens of thousands of years, it would have thought it was a fantasy.

“Yes, according to it, there are more than just one such powerful Zerg. In each Force cycle, a batch of extremely powerful Zerg Kings will appear. Some Zerg have even reached seven, eight, or nine elements.

In their inherited memories, some Force eras occasionally have Zerg that can even simultaneously possess the eleven elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Life, Strength, Soul, and Space. Compared to these powerful Zerg, your dual talents of Strength and Water are far from enough.

Especially in front of Zerg with Soul and Space talents, your soul is as weak as a lantern fish in their eyes.”

“Eleven elements…” The Blue Whale Warrior couldn't imagine how powerful eleven elements would be, let alone how powerful it would be if it possessed eleven elements.

The Blue Whale Warrior hesitated for a moment and asked, “Blue Tear Algae, are you saying that the master of the Horn of the Sea God is likely to become a powerful Zerg King with six or seven elemental talents?”

“If favored by the True God of Nature, it is very likely, and even reaching nine elements is not impossible.” Blue Tear Algae didn't blindly instruct. It explained, “This is not certain. It also has to do with race and time. Now is the Force Revival Period, and various Divine Fruits may not have been born yet. However, exchanging God-given Blue Tear Algae Fruit and God-given Sea Lettuce Fruit and God-given Dragon Beard Fruit for God-given Force food and ordinary Force food should be possible.”

The Blue Whale Warrior asked another possibility, “Then do you think it's possible for me to have multi-elemental talents?”

“In theory, it's possible, but in reality, the hope is almost zero.” Blue Tear Algae didn't give the Blue Whale Warrior any hope. “There is a prerequisite for trading Divine Fruits on the continent, and that is Divine exchange.

It refers to the exchange between Zerg who also own the Divine Fruit's ownership. The Zerg who own Divine God-given are the top Zerg Kings or tribes on the continent. Every Divine Fruit transaction between them, if made public, would cause turmoil on the continent. Therefore, they basically trade in secret, unknown to the Zerg.

Even the top tribes don't want their Divine God-given Zerg to be known to everyone. You can't go to land, you don't have trading capital, and you don't have Zerg connections. The hope of getting Divine Fruits is very slim.”

“Isn't owning three King-level wild God-given Seeds enough?”

“If it's for trading God-given Force food, then our three God-given Seeds are enough to supply you to advance to the King level, but if you want to eat Divine Fruits, to be honest, it's still a bit short.”

“Blue Tear Algae, I remember you said that the coast of this sea is inhabited by the Flame Spider Kingdom? Is the Flame Spider Kingdom considered a top tribe on the continent?”

“In the last Force era, the Flame Spider Kingdom was the top tribe on the continent. I don't know about this Force era. I live in the abyss, and what I know is very limited. Most of what I know is the information that the sea beast warriors of the former Sea Beast Kingdom told me.”

The whale baby didn't understand these things and had been quietly listening to their conversation, but after hearing about Force food, it swam out of the Blue Tear Algae forest and kept nudging the Blue Whale Warrior's belly with its whiskers. “Mommy, I want to eat lots of Force food.”

The Blue Whale Warrior gently stroked the whale baby's head with its huge fins, already having a plan in mind. “If the master of the Horn of the Sea God blows the horn again, shouldn't we go and meet it?”

“Yes,” Blue Tear Algae suggested, “You can send some gifts to build a relationship then.”

“What should I send that would be better?”

“If you're going to send something, send something more expensive. Anyway, you've eaten your fill of my God-given Blue Tear Algae Fruit and Sea Lettuce's God-given Sea Lettuce Fruit. King-level God-given food is also qualified.”

“Okay…”
