Chapter 857: The Blue Gold Tree Clan
As they entered the goldenwood gate, the life energy reached a new level, surpassing even the life energy around the moat. The quality of the life force seemed to have advanced yet again. It was an indescribably wonderful feeling.
In this environment, saturated with such a high level of life energy, the effects of cultivation for Tang San, who practiced the Mysterious Heaven Technique, were even more profound than what he had experienced in the Endless Blue Sea. The richness and density of the life energy here were astonishing, and while it didn't benefit his divine consciousness the way faith energy did, it was far more effective for his physique, internal energy, and bloodline imprints.
While Tang San marveled inwardly, Jin Miaosen seemed completely unaware of how remarkable this energy was, and she hurriedly pulled Tang San further inside.
The inner city was filled with buildings. Unlike the towering structures outside, none of these had more than two floors, but what left Tang San speechless was the fact that every structure was made entirely from goldenwood! Such a waste of precious resources—it was truly a case of not appreciating one's treasures.
It was not a large city, but walking the streets were all Blue Gold Trees, with blue hair and blue skin. Seeing them, Tang San distinctly recalled something: He had not seen a single Blue Gold Tree in the outer city.
Although these nymphs in front of him emitted a strong life force, their cultivation levels appeared to be quite low, and he also noticed that none of them had vines or spikes on their backs—not a single one. This only reinforced his hypothesis that these vines were related to cultivation.
Feigning confusion, Tang San curiously glanced around and asked, "Little Sister, why are they different from us?"
Hearing him call her "Little Sister," Jin Miaosen almost burst into tears again. "Big Brother, do you really not remember? We are very fragile before we become Nymph Kings. We must constantly accumulate life energy and align with heaven and earth until we break free from our constraints and communicate with the world. Only then can we ascend."
With this explanation, Tang San immediately understood. Blue Gold Trees had to continuously accumulate life energy for a long time until they became Nymph Kings, and until then, they likely had little combat power. It was truly an all-or-nothing process. No wonder they had this inner city built from goldenwood to help them accumulate life energy until they could break through; otherwise, they couldn't even protect themselves. It was certainly a unique situation. However, the fact that such a rare and precious race could survive and become the rulers of a main city suggested there was something special about them.
"Sister, could you tell me more about our Blue Gold Tree clan? It might help me recover some of my memories," Tang San said, furrowing his brow.
"Yes, yes." Jin Miaosen nodded repeatedly. "Our Blue Gold Tree clan is one of the three most ancient races in the Solstice Empire, and our progenitor is known as the Ancestral Tree. It stood alongside the Ancestral Stone and Ancestral Flower, and it was actually the leader of the Three Ancestors. At its peak, its life energy nourished the entire continent, benefiting all plant life."
As she said this, her delicate face unconsciously glowed with pride and dignity.
