Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Lin You, leaving the steps, no longer paid attention to the people outside.

With a nervous feeling, he quickly led several members of the Royal Family through a solemn and ancient corridor, entering into a massive open-air Divine Hall.

In the center of the hall, a giant Ancient Tree rose from the ground, piercing the sky and touching the clouds, with branches and leaves spreading out to almost cover the entire hall.

"World Tree?"

Lin You looked at the giant tree in surprise; wasn’t this the Territory Core World Tree of the Plant Lord?

Earlier, at such a close distance outside the Divine Hall, he hadn’t even noticed the presence of the World Tree. Even with fog as a cover, he shouldn’t have been completely unaware.

It seemed that the space inside here had been transformed by the Space Law, making the outside look and the inside view completely different.

Because this World Tree was indeed too large; if nothing was blocking it, it should have been visible even from outside the Divine Hall of Origin.

"We meet again, young man."

Suddenly, an aged voice echoed from above the World Tree.

"Who!?"

Lin You was shocked in his heart, quickly looking around.

For some reason, he felt that this voice seemed a bit familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Then he suddenly remembered: "Are you... the World Tree from the Life Realm?"

Indeed!

The voice just now was exactly the same as that of the World Tree that had been destroyed!

"It is indeed me." The voice of the World Tree echoed again, "To be precise, we are all just illusions stripped by the Main God. Through our connection, I have come to know everything that happened."

Just as expected!

Lin You suddenly came to a realization.

After reaching Tier Ten Lord, one could spend resources to cast Territory Cores in various places, much like how he had an avatar of the World Tree outside.

Except that unlike this World Tree in front of him, it didn’t possess self-awareness.

Clearly.

This World Tree was also an avatar of the Main God’s Territory Core, placed here to guard the Divine Hall of Origin.

And even after the Main God has fallen, it still exists.

Is there some technique he is unaware of?

Or can a Main God Level Territory Core exist independently?

Of course.

None of this matters; for Lin You, the most important thing is that he knows the Tree Spirit of this World Tree!

Gradually.

Lin You’s eyes brightened.

Since they were old acquaintances, couldn’t he pull a few strings?

However, not expecting it, the World Tree seemed to know his thoughts and suddenly poured cold water over him: "Unfortunately, I am only responsible for guarding this place and cannot help you obtain the Main God’s Position."

"Ah? You can’t? I at least fulfilled the agreement we had and saved the people in the Life Realm."

"..."

Indeed, when the Ten Thousand Realms collapsed, Lin You did not forget about the people in the Life Realm and relocated them into his Original World.

After this period of reproduction and settlement, they have already made a home in the Original World, living with the lords.

He has fulfilled the agreement he made with the World Tree before its death.

The World Tree was silent for a long time before finally sighing and delivered words that made Lin You’s expression change drastically.

"It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but the Main God’s Position doesn’t actually exist."

"What did you say!? The Divine Position doesn’t exist?"

Lin You was instantly stunned.

This statement to him was tantamount to a bolt from the blue.

The reason he worked so hard to arrive here before the other lords was to obtain the Main God’s Position to restrain the major forces.

Now that he’s arrived, and you’re telling him this thing doesn’t exist?

Doesn’t this mean all his previous efforts were in vain?

"Why?" Lin You frowned and asked.

"It’s simple, to become a Main God, it’s not about obtaining the Divine Position but needing to gain insight."

"Insight?"

"Yes, the path of the Lord is to control space-time and command life and death. You already possess the Power of Space-Time, but to become a Main God, you must also master the power of life and death."

"This power, there are only ten paths in the entire world. Only by being recognized by them can you truly obtain the position of the Main God."

The voice of the World Tree was elderly and long, echoing through the Divine Hall among the lush branches and leaves.

Lin You stood there dazed, momentarily at a loss.

Could it be that the fate of the Ten Thousand Realms is ultimately doomed to destruction by the Divine Kingdom and Demon Race?

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the World Tree’s tone suddenly shifted: "Actually, you have long possessed the Main God’s Position, which means you have the qualification to inherit it."

"I already have the Divine Position?" Lin You was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, "You mean..."

"That’s right, it’s the World Core you’ve fused."

Indeed!

Lin You’s heart trembled, then quickly turned excited.

Then he heard the World Tree continue: "Although I don’t know what happened, it seems that the Main God foresaw his fall and divided his power into three parts."

"One part is the World Core within you, another is with me, which can only be obtained by passing all the trials of the Divine Hall of Origin."

"The third part I do not know where it is, but as long as you possess any of them, you will directly obtain the Main God’s Position."

"But to truly control life and death and become the Main God, you must merge all the powers."

"So, does that mean after completing all the trials, I can obtain the power that the Main God left with you?" Lin You asked excitedly.

To control life and death—just hearing it, one would know it’s a power more formidable than the laws of space and time.

Although it’s only one-third, it’s a power personally left by the Main God, far more valuable than the intangible and less substantive Divine Position.

Most importantly, those guys outside don’t know the real situation about the Divine Position.

As long as he’s the first to pass the trials, with no witnesses to dispute it, even if they don’t want to believe it, they have to believe the Divine Position is with him.

That way, his plan could proceed without any hindrance.

"In that case, let’s quickly start the last trial!" Lin You said eagerly.

Just as he crossed the stairs, there was a prompt indicating he should head into the Divine Hall for the final test, and it seems this is it.

No matter what, he must claim the final reward before the other lords get here, to strengthen his bargaining chip in negotiations with major powers!

"There’s no need."

However, in response to his urgent request, the World Tree laughed softly.

"Consider this trial passed. Remember to take good care of the people in the Life Realm for me."

Huh?

Is that possible?

Lin You was utterly bewildered, his expression turning peculiar.

He didn’t expect that after all this, he’d still be given a backdoor pass, making him overjoyed: "Rest assured, as long as I’m alive, I won’t let anything happen to them!"

"Thank you."

The World Tree expressed gratitude, and its branches began to sway gently.

The next second.

With a thunderous roar, a boundless aura of life surged from it, instantly dispersing the surrounding clouds of the Divine Hall of Origin.

In an instant.

A golden light enveloped the Holy Hall, fully revealing it as if a colossal entity floated in the sky.

The World Tree, towering into the clouds, also blossomed completely at this moment, revealing its true form.

Accompanied by a succession of bell tolls, a series of prompts echoed in the minds of all the lords.

[Attention all lords, the final trial of the Divine Hall of Origin has been passed.]

[The Main God’s inheritor has been born, and the final trial is closed.]

[The Divine Hall will disappear in one day, please make haste.]

...

...

Silence.

Inside and outside the Divine Hall of Origin, it was completely quiet.

All the lords participating in trials looked up at the mighty Ancient Tree that suddenly appeared at the center of the Divine Hall.

Immediately, the crowd erupted.

"What the heck! Are you kidding me?"

"Who? Just who passed the final trial!?"

"It’s only been such a short time, that’s way too fast!"

"Did I hear it right? A Main God’s inheritor has really been born? Could it be one of those Divine Children?"

"Do we even need to speculate? It has to be them, without a doubt."

The sudden news left all the lords unable to remain calm, each one greatly astonished.

Many of them were still struggling through the first few stages, and yet someone had already entered the Main Hall and completed the final trial.

That speed is astonishingly fast!

But once they reminded themselves of the incredibly powerful Divine Children, the lords gradually came to terms with it.

After all, they were only here as bystanders, never actually expecting to acquire the Main God’s Position; rather, they now aimed to gather as many resources as possible in this final day to boost their own strength.

After all, the Divine Hall of Origin is related to the Main God.

If luck was on their side, leveling up a rank or two wouldn’t be a problem at all.

So quickly, they all reacted and joined the scramble for resources, while some began seeking information about the Main God’s inheritor.

But what they didn’t know was.

At this moment, the Divine Children on the stairs outside the Main Hall were all stone-faced, unable to even step through the door of the Main Hall.

Especially Situ Sheng, just a few meters away from the top of the stairs, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Lin You, is it? I’ll make you realize that the Main God’s Position isn’t something just anyone can take lightly!"

Giving one last deep look at the Main Hall door now blocked by a light screen, he turned and teleported away.

"Didn’t think, didn’t think, he actually got the Main God’s Position in the end."

Compared to Situ Sheng and the other Divine Children, Hua Junye’s reaction wasn’t as intense. Instead, he calmly observed the direction of the Main Hall, his gaze deep as if pondering something.

"The Main God’s Position being taken by a Lower Realm Lord is indeed unexpected," another Divine Child said softly.

"But just like Situ Sheng said, the Main God’s Position isn’t so easily obtained. He probably doesn’t even realize what kind of enemies he’ll face next."

"Heh, quite a lucky kid. Hopefully, he knows how to take care of himself."

Saying this, the Divine Children abandoned the trial, teleporting away one by one.

Only a few stayed behind, waiting to see if Lin You would come out.

In any case, with so many witnessing it, news of the Main God’s Position being with Lin You wouldn’t stay hidden for long; it would soon spread to all the Divine Kingdoms and power factions.

But all this wasn’t something Lin You should care about now.

Because at this moment, he was already seated cross-legged on the ground, accepting the infusion of the World Tree’s power.

And within him, the Ten Thousand Realms Space began to undergo an earthshaking transformation.
