On the Star Boat, Lu Ye played with the Fire Gourd. This thing was the treasure of the Yiyuan World. When he saw it that day, Lu Ye was tempted.
According to the feedback from the Asura Field, seven gourds were born on the Vine of Fortune. If he could gather all seven gourds, he could repeat the miracle of fortune.
Lu Ye didn't know what kind of miracle of fortune it was, and he didn't want to gather all seven gourds because it was too difficult. He now had the Pill Gourd, Sword Gourd, Fire Gourd, and the Wind Gourd. As for the other three, he didn't know where they were. Even if he wanted to find them, he had no way to do so.
If it weren't for Changfeng, Lu Ye wouldn't have been able to get the Fire Gourd so easily.
When he was ambushed by Changfeng, other than losing an incomplete Sword Qi from the Sword Gourd and eight Precious Blood Clones, he didn't suffer any substantial losses. Getting the Fire Gourd was not a loss!
Upon closer inspection, he could indeed sense that there was an unusually ferocious Heavenly Fire within the Fire Gourd. Back then, Yuan Se had relied on this treasure to fight with Shang Chengyue from the Formless Palace. The battle had been intense. If Shang Chengyue had not requested for a Merak sword aura in advance, he would have been defeated.
At that time, when Yuan Se used the Fire Gourd, Lu Ye felt that the Talent Tree had some reaction. This undoubtedly meant that the quality of the Strange Flame in the Fire Gourd was very high. If the Talent Tree could swallow it, it would be beneficial.
Now that he observed it carefully, Lu Ye found that the Strange Flame in the Fire Gourd was extraordinary. Such a fierce flame was not something an ordinary Rizhao could resist.
Even if it was him, he wouldn't be able to put up much of a fight against such a strange flame with his own strength.
Lu Ye couldn't help but feel sad.
It took a long time for a cultivator to cultivate. It wasn't easy to advance to Rizhao. He thought that he could dominate the cultivation world, but in fact, he couldn't even resist the power of a treasure. It was a tragedy.
Fortunately, although there were many treasures in the world, Ma Bin said that they were regarded as treasures by the major forces and wouldn't be used easily.
There were only a few examples of God Cloud carrying the Heavenly Luo Umbrella around. God Cloud was too arrogant and relied on the Heavenly Luo Umbrella to be indestructible. Who knew that he would encounter a real Starry Sky Treasure and be destroyed directly?
Now that the damaged Heavenly Luo Umbrella was in Hua Ci's hands, she had placed it by Little Melon's side to be nurtured. He didn't know if there was any possibility of it being restored.
The strange fire was ferocious, but that was only for cultivators. To the Talent Tree, it was a great supplement.
Lu Ye didn't hesitate and slightly activated the Talent Tree's power. The formless roots immediately probed into the gourd. In the next instant, Lu Ye felt a strange burning heat being crazily devoured by the Talent Tree.
Although the strange fire in the Fire Gourd was powerful, he already had the Sword Gourd as his trump card. It didn't matter whether he had this strange fire or not. If the Sword Gourd couldn't deal with an opponent at its peak, the Fire Gourd wouldn't be of much use.
He quietly sensed the changes in the Talent Tree and revealed a puzzled expression after a short while.
This was because he did not feel any increase in his Talent Tree's fuel reserves …
This was obviously not normal. For a long time, the Talent Tree devoured any fire attribute energy to increase its own fuel reserves for Lu Ye's future use.
Ever since the Talent Tree's first transformation, Lu Ye could easily sense its fuel reserves, so he knew in his heart whether the reserves were increasing or decreasing.
However, after the Talent Tree devoured the strange fire this time, its fuel reserves did not increase at all.
On the contrary, the Talent Tree itself seemed to have undergone some strange changes. This change was very small, and if Lu Ye didn't know the Talent Tree's situation like the back of his hand, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
Lu Ye calmed his mind and continued to investigate.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the strange fire in the Fire Gourd disappeared and was completely devoured by the Talent Tree.
Under his observation, Lu Ye clearly found that the flames on the Talent Tree had become a little more viscous …
This change was … Lu Ye was first shocked, then delighted.
Because he had experienced this change several times before. It was a sign that the Talent Tree was about to transform!
So far, since he obtained the Talent Tree, it had undergone three transformations.
When Lu Ye first obtained the Talent Tree, it could only help him refine the spirit pills he swallowed into his body to increase his cultivation speed.
However, after the first transformation, the Talent Tree's power had clearly increased. It had roots that could extend out of its body. With these roots, Lu Ye could devour and refine the spirit qi outside his body, spirit stones, and the like, greatly increasing his cultivation speed. At the same time, he also had a Talent Tree clone.
After the second transformation, the Talent Tree had the effect of deriving spirit runes. All kinds of spirit runes became easier under the derivation of the Talent Tree, and Lu Ye could inscribe new spirit runes on the leaves.
After the third transformation, by consuming fuel, the Talent Tree could accelerate the derivation of spirit runes. Moreover, the Talent Tree's instinctive power became gentler and could be used on outsiders.
Without this change, Lu Ye wouldn't have been able to help the Mermaid Clan resolve the bloodline curse back then. Under the activation of the Talent Tree's power, the Mermaid Clan cultivators would have been burned to ashes on the spot.
Many years had passed since the Talent Tree had undergone three transformations.
Lu Ye had always felt that the Talent Tree's three transformations were not the limit. He had also been waiting for the Talent Tree's fourth transformation. He wanted to know what changes would happen to the Talent Tree after the fourth transformation, and what new mysteries would be born.
Unfortunately, all these years, no matter how many fire-elemental treasures Lu Ye devoured, there were no signs of the Talent Tree transforming. In fact, there wasn't even the slightest sign of a possibility.
Until today!
After the Talent Tree devoured the special fire in the Fire Gourd, this sign appeared.
The surprise came so suddenly that Lu Ye couldn't react for a moment. He confirmed a few times that this was indeed a sign that the Talent Tree was about to transform.
Of course, this was just a small sign and it was still far from the Talent Tree's transformation. Once the Talent Tree transformed, it would turn into a fire seed and be reborn.
But … why was it like this?
The Talent Tree spent an incense's time to devour that ball of special fire. Calculating it, there wasn't much of it. If one were to calculate based on the devouring speed, this bit of time wouldn't bring much of an increase to the Talent Tree's fuel.
But the current situation was that there was no change in the fuel storage, but the Talent Tree itself had changed.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye vaguely felt that this should have something to do with quality!
The fourth transformation of the Talent Tree required not only a quantity of fire-elemental treasures, but more importantly, a guarantee of quality!
This was completely different from the previous three times. The previous three times, as long as the Talent Tree devoured enough, the transformation would happen naturally.
The fire-elemental treasures that Lu Ye devoured in the past were of good quality, but they were far from reaching the requirements of the Talent Tree. So even if he devoured them, it would only increase the fuel storage.
It was different this time. The special fire nurtured by the Fire Gourd was an extremely high quality treasure in the entire galaxy. That was why it triggered a change in the Talent Tree.
That was why the Talent Tree reacted when Yuan Se took out the special fire from the Fire Gourd. Because it was helpful to the Talent Tree's transformation.
This was just Lu Ye's guess, but it shouldn't be wrong.
If he wanted to verify this guess, it was simple. He just needed to devour another special fire of the same quality and he would be able to make a judgment.
With that thought, Lu Ye hurriedly started refining the Fire Gourd.
The birth and nurturing of the special fire in the Fire Gourd was the same as the nurturing of the sword aura in the Sword Gourd. They both required a large amount of investment.
However, while the nurturing of the sword aura required all kinds of magic treasures, the special fire required a large amount of fire-elemental energy.
Therefore, Lu Ye needed to refine the Fire Gourd before he could start nurturing the special fire. If he didn't refine it, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to activate the Fire Gourd's power. How could he nurture the special fire?
Yuan Se was tactful. When he handed over the Fire Gourd, he had already erased the various marks he left on it. This would undoubtedly make Lu Ye's refining process much easier.
"Lu Ye, we've arrived at the Insect Path." Yiyi's voice entered his ears. It didn't take long for them to arrive. She could see that Lu Ye was busy, so she didn't disturb him.
Hearing her voice, Lu Ye opened his eyes, stood up, and put away the Star Boat.
In front of the Insect Path's entrance, a Yue Yao class central battleship was parked. Jade Conch and Yue Yao, who were stationed here, came forward. Lu Ye asked a few simple questions. After learning that everything was fine, he led Yiyi and Hu Po into the Insect Path.
After all, this Insect Path wasn't stable. Only Rizhao could easily cross it with his physical body. If others wanted to pass through, they would have to rely on the battleship's protection.
Therefore, even though many people had heard that this Insect Path was connected to the Jade Conch Galaxy, no one dared to barge in recklessly.
Perhaps in the future, when the Insect Path was stable, some people would borrow it to take a look at the Jade Conch Galaxy, but not now.
After passing through the Insect Path, when his vision cleared, Lu Ye had already returned to the Jade Conch Galaxy. He saw another Yue Yao class battleship here.
He sighed. It was so difficult for him to return to the Nine States from the Wanxiang Sea. Even if he could use the Soul Tribe's ancestral land, it would still take some effort.
It was so much more convenient now.
When Lu Ye appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the nearby cultivators. They all came forward to greet him.
He looked around and found that many cultivators of the Three Realms had gathered here. They were obviously planning to enter the Wanxiang Galaxy through the Insect Path.
However, because they had to rely on the protection of the battleship every time they passed through, this kind of passage was only available once a month. It wasn't time yet, so the cultivators were still waiting.
When the battleship here went to the other side, it would still come back. It was a little troublesome, and it would also consume a lot of spiritual jades. However, this was the only way to ensure their safety.
Lu Ye didn't stay for too long. He continued to lead Yiyi and Hu Po toward the entrance of the ancestral land.
It had to be said that the cultivators of the Three Realms were much more fortunate than he was in the past. Staying in the Jade Conch Galaxy, they could go to the Asura Field of the Nine States to train themselves. If they were bored, they could take the once-a-month battleship to travel to the Wanxiang Sea. They wouldn't be idle.
In such a state, the Jade Conch Galaxy was clearly showing signs of prosperity. When it accumulated to a certain extent, its overall strength would definitely erupt like a geyser. Lu Ye looked forward to the arrival of that day.
