BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Divine Transformation
[Seeing you risk your life to control the War AI Bionic Robot against Master Jacob, your family\'s admiration for you has greatly increased.]
[You\'ve earned Spiritual Tribute+1000]
3000 Spiritual Tribute points!
Ethan disengaged from the War AI Bionic Robot and glanced at the top right corner. The Spiritual Tribute value had once again surpassed 7000. A satisfied smile spread across his face.
Victory was theirs.
Once again, he and Blackwood had overcome a crisis together. A mid-level Developing Skill expert had perished, thanks to the combined efforts of Blackwood and the Boar Monarch!
Who would believe this was the work of a small family from the countryside?
"The Forefather\'s divine might! He knew the Death Coffin could restrain Monk Jacob!"
"The Forefather is invincible!"
"If not for the Forefather, that fat monk would have escaped!"
The Blackwood clan members gazed at Ethan with reverence.
Only when the battered Boar Monarch approached did their expressions return to normal.
The Boar Monarch expressed his gratitude. "If not for your family\'s help, the Silver Iron Forest might have been destroyed by my own hand. Words cannot express my gratitude. From this day forward, the Silver Iron Forest will be Blackwood\'s staunchest ally. You are free to mine here, with the eternal gratitude of the Silver Iron Forest\'s myriad demons."
As soon as he finished speaking, a green glow enveloped the land of the Silver Iron Forest, washing over the Blackwood clan members!
Instantly, they felt a warmth spread through their bodies, and even their psychic abilities were slightly enhanced!
[Your descendants are protected by the Silver Iron Forest. The Boar Monarch, guardian of the Silver Iron Forest, has granted Blackwood 50% of its life-giving psychic power!]
[Congratulations, Blackwood has gained a group trait: Guardians of the Silver Iron Forest!]
[When Blackwood\'s descendants fight in the Silver Iron Forest, those below D-level will have their combat power increased by 50%. When cultivating psychic powers in the Silver Iron Forest, protected by its flora, those below D-level will have their cultivating speed increased by 10%. All exotic beasts of the Silver Iron Forest will feel an affinity towards Blackwood\'s descendants.
Your descendants with a Wooden Psychic Constitution will have their Psychic Constitution increased by 2 points.]
"Group trait!"
This was the first time Ethan had seen such a thing. It shone brightly on the member list.
Such a trait was incredibly powerful.
A 10% increase in the speed of cultivating psychic powers meant that Blackwood\'s training room could be moved to the Silver Iron Forest, since they weren\'t far apart!
And...
Every descendant born with a Wooden Psychic Constitution receiving an increase of 2 points might seem insignificant, but it meant that even the newborn children of Blackwood would experience a slight increase in their talents!
"This is huge!"
Ethan was overjoyed.
Such a group trait was already incredibly powerful.
But for now, the most significant benefit was that Blackwood had gained the Silver Iron Forest as an ally and the protection of a mid-level Developing Skill expert, with all the psychic beasts of the entire Silver Iron Forest at Blackwood\'s disposal.
The hidden combat power that Blackwood now possessed was enough to sweep any town in Tranquil City!
This battle had provided Blackwood with a solid foundation of real combat power.
The Blackwood clan members quickly cleaned up the battlefield and bid farewell to the Boar Monarch, promising to bring Mary\'s descendants to meet their grandfather in a few days.
...
The task was accomplished. The mature descendants of Blackwood were now capable of developing autonomously. Ethan instructed Lisa to roast a chicken as a reward for his efforts.
The Blackwood clan members were hurrying home.
"Honey, we won! Hahaha! The Forefather exerted his power and saved the Boar Monarch... I mean, Father-in-law!"
Julian laughed heartily as he strode towards home.
But just as he reached the birthing room...
"Wah—"
A loud cry rang out, as if adding color to Blackwood\'s joyous day!
[Mary was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to a son named Paul!]
[Congratulations, you have received a Spiritual Tribute+10!]
"Hahaha! Forefather, not only did my child save my father-in-law, but he also brought a new child into the family!"
Julian lifted the baby high. The nearly six-foot-seven-inch tall, strong man was moved to tears.
"Excellent!"
One joyous event followed another. Ethan picked up the walkie-talkie. "Lisa, two! I want to eat two roasted chickens!"
The family was ecstatic.
Ethan then watched as the Blackwood clan members carried the bodies of the deceased Bluetown Taylor and Master Jacob to the psychic medicine garden, intending to drain their blood to cultivate the beast blood fruit trees.
There were now three beast blood fruit trees.
The first transplanted beast blood fruit tree, its branches and leaves becoming more lush, had reached almost one hundred feet tall!
But now, Ethan wasn\'t as interested in the beast blood fruit trees as he once was.
Beast blood fruit trees could generate income, but the potions Amelia concocted were also incredibly valuable. Most importantly, there was no risk of anyone replicating the potion formulas, because the necessary materials didn\'t exist on Earth!
As Ethan pondered how to utilize the large sum of Energy Stones he had earned, something unexpected occurred.
Nathan was in the process of draining Master Jacob\'s blood, letting it drip onto the largest beast blood fruit tree.
Suddenly, roots from the beast blood fruit tree burst through the ground and pierced into the body. The roots acted like the mouthparts of a creature, greedily sucking the blood!
The beast blood fruit tree underwent a mutation.
Rain began to fall from the sky, and the raindrops, making contact with the lush branches and leaves, produced a mysterious yellow essence!
[Congratulations, your descendants have cultivated the beast blood fruit tree with the blood of a mid-level Developing Skill expert. The beast blood fruit tree has mutated, absorbed the power of Developing Skill, and begun to advance——]
[Eighth grade, blood psychic fruit tree!]
[The blood psychic fruit tree has developed a faint psychic intelligence. It senses the offerings from Blackwood and its roots will remain within the territory of Blackwood, protecting it with its life!]
[Blood psychic fruit tree, bears fruit every thirty years.]
"What the...?"
Ethan was stunned. This was the first time he had witnessed the transformation of a psychic tree!
The blood psychic fruit tree swayed its branches, like a child who had been starved for centuries and had finally eaten, conveying its joy.
"The Forefather has exerted his great power once more, allowing the beast blood fruit tree to transform! The might of the Forefather is almost divine!"
Witnessing this scene, Nathan immediately took out a Forefather Card and bowed repeatedly in worship.
Ethan, observing from behind the screen, paid no mind to Nathan\'s eccentric behavior.
He casually picked up the walkie-talkie. "Lisa, three! I want to eat three chickens!"
"Commander, there are only two chickens."
Lisa\'s helpless voice came through the walkie-talkie.
"Then roast a duck!"
Ethan hung up the walkie-talkie, a satisfied smile on his face.
