Chapter 1795 Primeval Ent
A Normal Ascension is a process of a cultivator who has reached the limit of that world and is unable to progress any longer in that world and needs some external push like an invitation from an Emperor from the other worlds.
After going through the Lightning Tribulation for the Normal Ascension, that particular cultivator would become a native of the higher world.
Once he becomes a native of the higher world, his cultivation talent, potential and even his body physique would be upgraded to the level of an average cultivator's talent, potential and physique of that higher world.
Skaros, the Primeval Ent was the last surviving one among his race and the oldest living being in the Purple Stone World.
His cultivation has been stuck at the peak King Realm and with the current resources in the Purple Stone World, he couldn't break through to the next level much less ascending to the Heavenly Realm.
As a fellow native of the Purple Stone World, Ajax wanted to invite the Primeval Ent to the Five Elemental World.
"Your World? You have conquered a World that was much more powerful than the Purple Stone World?"
When the Primeval Ent heard Ajax's words, he was shocked as he looked at Ajax in a new light.
"I was lucky and able to become an Emperor of that world."
With a slight smile on his face, Ajax briefly explained about the world, "The world's name is Five Elemental World. Even though it was yet to become a Greater World, it won't be long before it reaches the Greater World."
As an Emperor of the Five Elemental World and the Purple Stone World, Ajax didn't have to take anyone's permission to invite the cultivators who met the requirements of ascension.
Also, Ajax didn't hide the fact that the Five Elemental World was not a Greater World and it would take a while before becoming one.
Even though the Five Elemental World was not a Greater World, with the Lesser World Tree in it along with the benefits provided by the tree like purifying the essence of nature in the world, it could be considered as a Greater World.
"Thanks for the invitation; however, the previous invitation I got was from…"
"Also, there was a Standard World Tree in it."
Seeing that Skaros was rejecting his offer, Ajax was quick with his words as he informed about the Standard World Tree in the Five Elemental World.
Even though the evolution of the Lesser World Tree was yet to be completed, it would be completed in less than 12 hours.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, Ajax decided to consider that the evolution was completed and he has a Standard World Tree in the Five Elemental World.
Also, the reason why Ajax decided to reveal the Standard World Tree was that Primveal Ent is a creature that was closely related to the trees and the more powerful the trees in the world are, the faster their cultivation would be.
Hence, Ajax was sure that once the Primeval Ent learned about the existence of the Standard World Tree, he would directly accept his invitation.
Moreover, Ajax felt that he could use Primeval Ent's knowledge of living for millions of years alongside the Purple Stone World.
Even though the King Realm Cultivators can't live past 1000 years without consuming cultivation resources, Primeval Ents are different.
They become one with the world and live for as long as possible as long as they are not killed by external threats.
However, just because they could live for millions of years, they could not become strong and unlike the World Trees or other trees, they can't produce powerful and heaven-defying treasures from their bodies.
In short, the Primeval Ents were not complete trees and at the same time, they were not spirit beasts. They would be somewhere between these two.
They got the ability to live for long from the trees and the cultivation talents from the spirit beasts.
"What? Your world has a Standard World Tree?"
Skaros hated getting interrupted when he was talking; however, Ajax's words didn't make him angry; instead, he was shocked as he asked about it.
"Yeah. I have it and because of that tree, the moment you ascend to my world, you will instantly become an Emperor Realm being."
Ajax nodded his head.
"T-this…let me formally reject the Forest Dragon Emperor's invitation to ascend to his world."
The Primeval Ent had two reasons for accepting the invitation of the Forest Dragon Emperor in ascending to his world and it was because of a Standard World Tree in his world.
Among the two invitations he got, without a doubt, the Forest Dragon Emperor's invitation was the best one.
However, he knew that after he successfully completed his ascension to the Greater Forest Dragon World, he would be forgotten by the Forest Dragon Emperor in no time because there would be many living beings that ascended to his world.
The only reason why he got the invitation to that world was because he was one of the rarest species in the Universe and he would become a collection for the Forest Dragon Emperor.
Hence, Skaros decided to reject the Forest Dragon Emperor's invitation as he knew that Ajax was young and needed someone like him who could guide him and take care of the world in his absence.
In short, instead of becoming a nobody in one of the powerful worlds, Skaros wanted to become someone useful in a developing world.
"Haha…I will be waiting for you then."
Ajax laughed a little and at the same time, he informed the Primeval Ent, "By the way, I am planning to nurture a Lesser World Tree in the Purple Stone World."
"Really? It looks like you must have become quite rich after leaving the Purple Stone World…hehe."
After learning about how one of Ajax's worlds has a Standard World Tree, the Primeval Ent was not surprised about Ajax having a Lesser World Tree.
So, he joked about Ajax getting rich after leaving the Purple Stone World.
"As I said before, I was lucky."
Ajax was modest with Skaros as he shook his head.
Ajax didn't have much interaction with the Primeval Ent and didn't share much information with him.
In the future, if Skaros helps him, Ajax will give enough cultivation resources to help him ascend to the Heavenly Realm.
"So, I am wondering about the location where I should plant the Lesser World Tree."
After exchanging a few more words, Ajax asked Skaros about the location of the plant.
"You are asking the right person. Follow me."
As a mixed breed of both plant and the spirit beast and having lived for long enough, Skaros was quite knowledgeable about the locations for planting trees.
So, he guided Ajax and Siora to a particular location that was overgrown with trees and bushes.
"This place here is directly connected to the Core Realm of the Purple Stone World and it is one of the best locations for planting a Lesser World Tree."
Nature."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAjax could feel the pure Essence of Nature and at the same time, he The old Skaros pointed at a particular location amidst the overgrown bushes and trees where it was completely barren.
"You are right! This location is brimming with pure Essence of Nature."
Ajax could feel the pure Essence of Nature and at the same time, he used his Divine Spirit Consciousness to check the location and could sense that it was quite close to the Core Realm of the World.
The core Realm of the World was a separated space inside the worlds in which the World Cores were located. Also, it could not be sensed by everyone and only cultivators like Ajax who were extremely sensitive towards the essence of nature would sense and enter the Core Realm.
"And you must be wondering why that particular location is barren despite being nourished by the Pure Essence of Nature, right?"
The old man turned towards Ajax and Siora as he asked with a slight smile.
"It's because you wanted to get the Pure Essence of Nature and didn't want others to completely take it. If I am right, you must be using your branches to plant there from time to time to get as much Pure Essence of Nature as possible."
It was Siora who replied with her usual cold face.
"Haha…it looks like you are quite knowledgeable."
Skaros was surprised for a moment before nodding his head, agreeing with Siora's words.
"Anyway, you can plant the Lesser World Tree here as I will be leaving this world soon."
Since the Primeval Ent was about to ascend to the Five Elemental World in a few days, Skaros no longer needed that place to absorb the pure Essence of Nature.
So, he didn't mind Ajax using that place for nurturing the Lesser World Tree.
"I will plant it here, then."
Nodding his head, Ajax went forward dug a hole and planted the Lesser World Tree that he got from the rewards of the Trial of the Divine Dragons.
It was a 100-year-old Lesser World Tree and it was as big as any other normal tree; however, with Ajax's strength, it was not a problem for Ajax to lift it and plant it in the hole.
'Ding,
The host has planted a Lesser World Tree and to nourish it, please provide it with 100 drops of Plant Essence; otherwise, it will wither away.
'What? I thought I would save 100 drops of Plant Essence; however, it looks like that 100 drops of Plant Essence is the cost of moving locations for the tree.'
Ajax bitterly shook his head as he didn't hesitate much as he directly poured 1000 drops of Plant Essence and in the next second, changes started appearing in the tree.
