Chapter 2782 (2/2)
“God? What kind of god is he?” Han Sen asked with a frown.
“He has no tier. He isn’t like those rubbish deified creatures. This is an actual god. It is God, and God can do anything.” Violet’s expression looked like that of a deranged madman.
“How do you know he is really God?” Han Sen finally understood why that giant had a familiar presence. It was because, even though the being seemed to be dead, its body still had that feeling Han Sen despised. It wasn’t really God. It was a god like King Jun.
“I just know it,” Violet coldly grunted. Then, he quickly explained, “The Space Garden you have come to know used to be a small ganoderma lucidum. It was only the size of a man’s hand. But due to an accident, the small ganoderma lucidum’s spores landed on the god’s dead body. It absorbed the god’s power, and it has been growing all the way up until now. The ganoderma lucidum’s body became its own xenogeneic space, and it spawned so many xenogeneic plants… If this being is not a god, then what sort of creature’s corpse could offer such power?”
Han Sen looked at the jade giant. For all he knew, gods couldn’t attack creatures of the universe. But also, the creatures of the world shouldn’t be able to touch them, either.
If that jade giant really was a god like King Jun, even if he died, it shouldn’t be possible to use his corpse as a base that other beings could grow off of.
“What is this thing? Could it really be the corpse of a god?” Han Sen’s heart pounded as he tried to think.
Before Han Sen could ask anything further, Violet kept on talking. He seemed pretty excited.
“Our ancestors witnessed the beginning of the ganoderma lucidum’s parasitic claiming of the god’s corpse, and they guarded this place with their lives. They tried to figure out what the god was, exactly. But they were never able to find out. Our race, however, started to grow many flowers on our heads. These flowers gave us the ability to evolve quickly. Although we have been developing quickly, we’ve been struggling to catch up to the other creatures of the universe, which have been evolving for billions of years. The speed of our development has accelerated dramatically, though. It was like a big jump for our people.”
“After many generations of research, we finally found a way to absorb god’s power directly… We just had to turn ourselves into plants. We have imitated the ganoderma lucidum’s parasitic claiming of the god’s corpse, in a way. It absorbed the god’s corpse’s power, and we intend to do the same.”
“I don’t think that your plan is going all that well. Those Flower Gods have power, but it looks like they were driven insane in the process.” Han Sen now understood why the Flower Gods suddenly possessed such frightening levels of power. It was due to them leeching off the god corpse’s energy.
“Yes. But we can say that we succeeded as much as we can say we failed. We used the tentacles of the Space Garden to allow ourselves to absorb the god corpse’s power faster. We don’t need to eat the xenogeneic plants to gain god’s power anymore. This way is faster, and our people are evolving much faster, which proves that our theory was correct.”
“In the past, it was impossible for us to gain a deified elite. But right now, after directly absorbing the power from the god’s corpse, everyone has started to become deified like it was the easiest thing in the world.”
As he said this, Violet’s face was brimming with pride. “But it is a shame. Right now, at this time, a complication has shown up in the bodies of most of my people. They cannot handle the power of the god, and so they have started to become plants. Even their thoughts are starting to decompose. They even buried themselves in the soil to behave more like a plant… But I am different…”
“Why are you different?” Han Sen knew this was the most important point. He stared at Violet, who was looking more insane with every minute that passed.
Violet’s face looked so prideful; it couldn’t be described. “I am the chosen one. I can accept God’s power. I won’t become a vegetable like the rest of my people. I do, however, have a minor issue. I have to pass a test that God himself gave me.”
