Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 904 - [Ascendance Of The Goddess of Sins and Virtues] 25/?: Yggdrasil Sprout Fusion!

.

.??

.

Well, that was some crazy shit right there!

What the heck was that?

Seriously, too many things I didn't even get.

So the Tree of the Universe is a thing.

It is just an enormous, gargantuan tree that takes over the entire universe, and seems to be an essential part of it.

It seemed to be even stronger than my mother!

Or is it?

Maybe because my mom is chained…

Wait, wait, what?

Okay, let's calm down, my mind is dizzy as heck.

Okay so, the Tree of the Universe is the transcendental mother of all Yggdrasil Trees across the universe… Okay, got it.

She tried to suppress me because I… am dangerous to the universe.

I think it is because I intend to revel against the Overseers… Okay, got it.

My family came to help me by connecting their souls to me, it helped a lot against her strong pressure and vastness.

But mommy came as well, and she gave me the last push… Okay, got it.

But then she and the Tree began to discuss.

And it seems that she, The One, and Azathoth were born from the Tree of the Universe when the universe formed through it.

From… Cosmic Fruits or something? Well, that was quite the revelation.

Doesn't that make the Tree of the Universe like… my grandmother?

But she says she doesn't like those titles or something, and that there is no parental connection between the two of us.

Technically all living beings in this world are kind of like her descendants to an extent, she is kind of… well, the universe.

They spoke about things, about trusting me or something. My mother was very supportive, I kind of love her even more now.

Ultimately, the three gave up and let me do as I pleased.

But wow those were quite the revelations.

Sigh… I wish I could speak with my mother more directly, but it seems she consumed a crapload of energy after doing that, I don't want her to do anything more for me, so she should rest for now until I get to the level of power where I can begin helping her recover.

I have to just get strong enough to the point of being able to devour the chains of the Overseers.

The chains that can bind a Primordial Deity… Damn.

It would have been pretty cool if my grandma could have dropped a Blessing! I wouldn't have minded a little help here!

Now, how strong is she?

I mean, probably universal level, right?

She is the universe, to an extent.

So I guess stronger than anything.

But I suppose, like us that cannot easily intervene with the little cells inside our bodies fighting against bacteria and stuff, she probably can't help me fight against my current enemies and stuff, similarly to my mother.

Well, it's not like she would have done it anyway, and mother (if she were healthy) would probably blow up Genesis entirely, and that's not what I would want…

Nonetheless, for now, things are stabilizing.

I feel like my soul is overflowing with power, and I feel many Attribute Particles fuse with me.

These are those of the damn tree that took so long to be fused.

I feel quite enlightened as if my mind were getting filled with new information.

A sudden comprehension of the Law of Life comes to me, and not only that, but due to its connection with the Tree of the Universe, I even get slight enlightenment over the Grand Cosmic Dao.

Oh yeah, you may wonder what the heck I am talking about… Law of Life is something transcendental that governs all life in the universe, there is a Law for every "basic" attribute, after having learned these, there are Dao, which merge Laws together.

Attribute Particles help with the comprehension of Law, or well, they're more like their raw power, but they also give you a nice boost in the comprehension, but you still gotta comprehend them.

After fusing with the soul of the Yggdrasil Sprout, I got a tiny bit of this stuff.

Nonetheless, the system doesn't show me this stuff because it is below it, and cannot properly showcase it in numerical values… yet.

But soon enough, if I upgrade the Path Jewel of the System all the way to Great God Realm or maybe Supreme God Realm, it could.

For now, I feel the enormous power of the Yggdrasil Branch become mine, without having to eat it, this is what I call Soul Fusion.

If I ate it, it would probably not help as much, but if I keep it alive inside my Divine Realm, and it fuses with it and my soul, it can keep growing and administrating even more power to me.

As I open my eyes, my family greets me.

I was sitting just above a giant root, and they're all around me. After all, they were the ones that helped me get through this.

To think that they're so perceptive, the moment they sensed I was in danger, they immediately rushed here and helped me… They're a sweet bunch.

"Mastaaa! You're okay?" asked Rimuru, jumping over me and hugging me with her slimy body.

"We were so worried, you keep risking your life now!" said Amiphossia.

"It is really quite concerning, but at the very least we managed to aid you a bit…" sighed Brontes.

"Yeah, at least a little tiny bit!" said Zehe.

"Mama, are you really okay?" asked Ailine, she also jumped over me.

"Yeah, I am okay… thanks a lot, everyone… Without you, I wouldn't have made it through… there is a lot to explain, so let's go back home for now," I said.

In the end, we flew back home and then I explained things out in great detail, everyone was even more impacted by the things I saw, which they seemed to not have been able to see completely when they helped me.

"One thing after another! I didn't even know there was such an entity as the Tree of the Universe!" said Agatheina.

"Me neither guuu… Well, I don't know much of anything…" said Rimuru.

"So in resume, it tried to destroy your mind to stop you from reveling against the Overseers?!" asked Zehe.

"She also said that the Tree thought that she would be the cause of the universe's destruction… What a dilemma!" said Nesiphae.

"How can they not trust our wife?" wondered Adelle rather angered.

"Mother-in-law did a good job at scolding that insolent tree!" said Oga.

"Well, it was the Tree that represents the entire universe we are talking about…" said Charlotte.

"Yeah! Even then, it was a good scolding!" said Lilith.

"Haha… I don't think you guys really understand the scale of the situation…" sighed Charlotte.

"For now things are okay, so let's relax, alright?" I said, as everyone seemed to agree, we were served some herbal tea and a few biscuits, while I decided to check my System Windows.

Ding!

[You have merged with the [Yggdrasil Sprout]!]

[You gained +50.000.000.000 Primordial Essence, +10.000.000 Divine Energy, and +3.000.000 Aether!]

[You gained a small speck of primordial comprehension over the Laws of Life and the Great Cosmic Dao! (Currently unable to showcase)]

[You gained +16.000 Life Attribute Particles and +8.000 Nature Attribute Particles]

Wow, that's a lot of Attribute Particles… Now I have more Life Attribute Particles than any other!

Ding!

[You have gained the [Divine Tree of Life] Race!]

[You have unlocked the [Primordial Divine Tree of Life] Stages, the stronger your tree grows, the more your stage advances]

[You gained the [Life & Nature] Divine Authority!]

Ah! What a shock, I guess I am a tree too.

My new race (I don't know how many I got now) is a Divine Tree of Life! How nice.

And Divine Trees seem to have special Cultivation Stages independent of other stuff? I see. I suppose whenever I advance, I can get juicier powerups.

And I even got a new Divine Authority, these are like super passive abilities that grant some cool effects.

[Divine Authority: Life & Nature]

A special Divine Authority is only granted to beings who have dedicated their entire lives to learn about Nature, to be with Nature, or that embody the most basic meanings of life.

This Divine Authority grants the user the ability to embody Nature, Life, and to absorb it from its surroundings, while also being able to slowly comprehend the Law of Life and the Great Law of Nature.

Alongside this, it enhances the user's ability to control Life and Nature, to learn new abilities with Life and Nature, and more.

…

Oh, I guess with this, I can more or less control nature freely?

I could already kind of do that, but now its intensity and mastery are multiplied several times thanks to this Divine Authority and then the Attribute Particles.

So, I should really get going into making that Life and Nature Path Jewel, so I left Andromeda making it through the Origin Core and the System.

I decided to check my Status for the moment and see the progress I have achieved.

…

Pretty good so far! Already at almost 20 million Divine Energy, this tree really packed a nice amount of it, alongside Aether.

But the rest? Not much, most likely because I didn't eat the physical body of the tree, but perhaps I would be able to get Ki if I did.

But fusing with the soul was more than enough.

Oof, I already have almost 30.000 Life Attribute Particles? This is quite an insane amount.

Well, now that the Yggdrasil Sprout is mine, I have fulfilled one of my tasks for this little war we are playing with the Zeus family…

Now, my next move should be…
