Man on the ark, forced to become king

She also has ways to create bodies, including cloning and cell culture.

But all of that takes time, and requires various drugs and sophisticated equipment to achieve. How can it be done like this, just by shining a light on it?

If one possesses the ability to allow the soul to move freely and can also quickly create a body, wouldn't that be equivalent to resurrecting the dead?

The power of the golden tree successfully touched upon her blind spots in knowledge.

While she was awestruck, the doctor was also a little envious; she wanted that kind of power too…

She does possess many lost technologies, but those things are impossible to achieve in this era. After all, no matter how advanced the technology is, it requires corresponding technical capabilities to realize it.

No matter how much knowledge you have, it's all empty talk if you can't put it into practice, just like she couldn't teach a group of monkeys to hand-craft chips...

At the height of civilization, technological creations are naturally more convenient and user-friendly.

But now that she's fallen on hard times, she might be the only human left in the world. Her past glory is long gone, and that's when the importance of her martial prowess becomes apparent.

If their technology could also enable individuals to wield such great power, would she be in this mess now?

Despite possessing a wealth of knowledge, in reality she couldn't even defeat that old lynx that seemed to haunt history and die a thousand deaths!

The evil spirits of Babel, the strongest tactical commander...

Isn't that because they're not strong enough?

If she had Lin Lu's strength, she would have rolled up her sleeves and personally taken to the field long ago, knocking them all down with a single punch. Why would she need to give orders?

Unfortunately, she didn't have one, so she could only hide here and tremble as she looked at the towering tree in front of her. Her planned world trip was ruined, and she was locked at home taking care of her children.

However, perhaps it's not entirely impossible...

Thinking of the blessing of the golden tree that had been injected into his body, the doctor felt that he might not be completely without a chance...

If I had to say, wouldn't she be considered part of Golden Tree now?

Since they're one of our own, isn't it normal for them to learn from those secretaries and such?

After witnessing the golden tree standing tall on the earth, the doctor felt he had gained enlightenment.

That's right! Science alone cannot save this world from imminent danger!

Instead of wasting your life clinging to technologies that are impossible to achieve, why not try a different path?

Having witnessed the incredible power of this era, especially the inexplicable Golden Tree, the doctor felt even more deeply that humanity has its limits!

So, she's giving up on being human!

Just as the Doctor was looking up and enjoying the future, Kal'tsit, the current leader of the Tower of Babel who had just arrived at the Golden Tree, fell into a long silence.

She saw everything the doctor could see, and understood it even more deeply.

She didn't crave the resurrection of the dead, since she could do that herself.

Throughout her long history, she has changed bodies more than once and created legends more than once. Strictly speaking, even the current Kazdel, with its long-standing demon king power, was originally mastered by her.

Although that technology can't be used on others, it's perfectly adequate for her own use.

What truly attracted her was the potential represented by the Golden Tree—a power completely different from the existing Originium system…

It doesn't have the dangers of Originium, nor is it as complex and difficult to master as ancient technology. Most importantly, it truly touches upon the essence of the world.

Kal'tsit knew she wasn't omnipotent, and she always had.

Compared to others on this land, she simply lived a little longer. In terms of wisdom, ability, or martial prowess, she was not top-tier; at most, she was just a little stronger than the average person.

If you let her do it, the final outcome will most likely not be what she wants.

But the golden tree can.

The unknown represents infinite possibilities. What would it be like if the power of the Golden Tree were to cover the entire world?

She cannot predict the future, but she can envision a general outline.

Perhaps, after so many failures, this time we can try a different approach...

If relying on the power of this land itself is insufficient to defeat the deep sea, shatter the false sky, or directly confront the existence of the earth overlooking the stars, then why not try something unprecedented?

The unknown of change holds all possibilities.

Boom!

The earth trembled, and the giant tree, like a pillar supporting the sky, continued to grow upwards, its golden bark tinged with a faint reddish-brown.

Red and gold intertwine and overlap, weaving a vast and mysterious picture that seems to encompass all living things in the world.

One by one, curved branches sprout from the base of the tree, climb up the trunk, and eventually form a candlestick-like shape that envelops the golden tree.

Each branch subtly reveals a form of life, some already formed, others still blank spaces in flux.

—The initial golden tree's nature is closer to that of life, hence its red color.

In the past, at the borderlands, life was intertwined and inseparable. All things were born from the furnace, transformed into the myriad forms of the furnace, and ultimately returned to the trees.

To nurture life, to weave life, to dominate life.

This is——

A furnace of life.

It is the origin of life and the end of all things.

At this moment, Lin Lu's eyes had completely transformed into a dazzling pure gold color. The power of gold flowed through her body, filling every blood vessel and outlining clear veins on the surface of her skin.

He has now regained his former strength, and even surpassed it slightly.

Unlike the puppet-like King of Elden in the borderlands, the newly born Golden Tree is connected to him by blood. In a sense, the Golden Tree is his extension; he is gold, he is the law itself.

Even the god who governs the law cannot reach such a level.

As long as one is within the Golden Tree's range and blessed by the entire Golden Tree, one possesses inexhaustible energy; life and soul are both within reach. However, this state is not stable. To this world, the Golden Tree is ultimately an outsider, and its power will be greatly diminished once one leaves the Golden Tree's coverage area.

Even so, it's enough.

One day, the golden tree will completely cover the world, taking control of the sky, the land, and the sea.

"Furnace... boil!"

A scorching power flowed through his body. Lin Lu opened his arms and shouted loudly. Under his control, the towering tree shone with unprecedented brilliance, and a bright beam of light descended from the sky, landing on Lani.

Since the Golden Tree has entered the Life Furnace form ahead of schedule, the first thing he needs to do is naturally to help Melina and Lani, his two closest people, to reshape their bodies.

Melina's situation is simpler, since her strength isn't that great, and creating a body capable of carrying a soul is relatively easy for her.

Lani's situation is more complicated because she is a god, in the true sense of the word.

Even though she didn't stay at the border for long, she was still a god, a higher-level being who had completed a leap in the essence of life.

Creating a vessel to house her soul, allowing her to no longer restrain her physical body, is a difficult task and a considerable burden for the Golden Tree, which has just entered the Life Furnace form.

However, it's all worth it.

After the golden tree in Kazdel completed its evolution, the two smaller golden trees planted in Lungmen and Syracuse also grew rapidly under the power's feedback. Golden ripples spread out from the rapidly expanding trunks, affecting a large area around them.

In the still-unreconstructed city, all the workers hired by the Lucchese family instinctively faced the Golden Tree, kneeling in worship. The unparalleled, vast power emanated before their eyes, and the awe rooted deep in their blood prevented them from resisting.

In the eyes of the current senior members of the Lucchese family, who have received the blessing of the Golden Tree, even across countless obstacles, the golden shadow of the tree stands in reality and grows deep in their hearts.

Mysterious, ancient, noble, and powerful.

No reminders are needed; everyone knows what they should do.

Faced with absolute power, no one dares to act disrespectfully.

Respect bloodlines, respect gold.

From that moment on, the mark of the Golden Tree truly seeped into the depths of their blood.

Led by Gaetano, all the blessed individuals gathered in the Lucches family square, facing the direction of the Golden Tree, bowing their heads to express their respect for the Golden Tree in the most primal way.

Only W, Texas, and Lappland, whose blessing levels were relatively high, were not greatly affected, but they couldn't help but hold their breath as they watched a golden tree rise from the city and eventually stop at a height of several tens of meters.

At the same time, the golden trees planted in Longmen also underwent the same change.

The exquisitely inlaid flower beds were crushed and crushed by the roots, and the golden tree trunks expanded and grew at a visible speed, far exceeding the scope that the walls could cover. In the central area of ​​Longmen, a tree tens of meters tall appeared out of thin air, its branches and leaves swaying.

Sensing something was wrong, Wei Yanwu immediately ordered the central urban area to be sealed off, mobilized the Imperial Guard to maintain order, and cleared out any 'interested individuals' mingling in the surrounding area.

Unlike Syracuse, a closed city where the Luches family held absolute power, Lungmen's openness meant it couldn't maintain the same level of information secrecy as Syracuse.

Wei Yanwu could only try his best to slow down the spread of this astonishing scene, while preparing to deal with a whole host of troubles that might follow.

After all, that tree stands there, dozens of meters tall, taller than some ordinary office buildings and shopping malls, and anyone who isn't blind can see it.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, even a fool could sense the unusual nature of the golden light cast from the treetops.

The sudden change in the Golden Tree was completely unexpected by Wei Yanwu, who was unprepared for it, and it went against his long-held principle of 'stability'.

But there was nothing he could do.

Thinking of that terrifying aura that flashed by in that instant, almost causing his body to spiral out of control, and the power possessed by the Golden Tree...

They have the bigger fist, what can he say?
