551: The power beyond the sky

Looking at the increasing number of Black Dragon Aliens in the sky, this was the only chance Chen Du could think of to turn the tide.

But how difficult was it to raise one Rank in Life Strength?

Especially for a Sky Soaring Warrior.

Even with his current Heaven-Defying talent, it would require a long period of arduous cultivation to achieve.

Despite this, Chen Du would not give up.

Waiting for death was not his style.

He would rather die in battle than do nothing. It was just a pity that he couldn't bring these rare resources back to the High Martial Civilization; otherwise, he would have died a worthy death.

"Rank 24?"

"If you reach Rank 24, you can turn the tide?"

At this moment, the Thousand-Faced Tree, which had been silent on his left arm, suddenly spoke.

"You have a way?"

Chen Du's original thought of igniting his Life Ignition Cord and fighting to the death was interrupted at this moment.

The Thousand-Faced Tree's tone seemed to suggest, "I have a way!"

"Yes."

Facing a life-or-death situation, both communicated mentally without any hesitation.

"We Thousand-Faced Trees have a secret that we are born with and must keep to ourselves."

"We possess an innate, exclusive ability called 'Rank Differential Balance.'"

"For any life form other than a Thousand-Faced Tree, whose Rank is at least one lower than our own, we can, once in our lifetime, reduce our own Life Strength Rank by one and give it to them!"

"However, this reduction does not cause a drop in life tier. That is to say, I cannot use Rank Differential Balance at Ranks 10, 20, or 30."

"Similarly, Advanced Martial Artists and Advanced Aerial Warriors at Rank 19 and Rank 29, if their advancement conditions are not met, will not increase their Rank to 20 or 30 just because of this one Rank gift from me."

"This secret would cost me, and even our Thousand-Faced Tree clan, our lives. If it weren't for this current death trap and my sufficient fear of death, I wouldn't tell you."

Sufficient fear of death, you are honest!

Chen Du scoffed inwardly.

He had never imagined that the Thousand-Faced Tree actually hid such a crucial ability.

As the other party said, Rank Differential Balance, although an exclusive ability, was undoubtedly an incredibly terrible exclusive ability.

This ability would turn the Thousand-Faced Tree clan into a resource.

And it would be a top-tier resource with high flexibility and regenerability!

The Thousand-Faced Tree belonged to the Myriad Flowers Civilization. As a T4 Great Civilization, Small Civilizations naturally wouldn't dare to target them.

But what about other Great Civilizations?

To put it harshly, based on the conclusion of human wickedness, if the Thousand-Faced Tree's ability were made public, then the structure of the Myriad Flowers Civilization would not be 3 Royal Clans and 15 Pu Clans.

Instead, it would be 3 Royal Clans and 14 Pu Clans!

The Thousand-Faced Tree would definitely become the best choice for the Myriad Flowers Civilization's three Royal Clans to quickly raise their Ranks.

They would be bred to Rank 20-something, then constantly downgraded and upgraded again to provide 'red' service to these Royal Clans!

Wars never cease; the present is both a period of peace and preparation for war. Every Civilization, especially Great Civilizations, wants to improve their comprehensive strength as much as possible.

Once the Thousand-Faced Tree's secret is exposed, they are destined to become like pigs and sheep in a pen.

"Yes, I can definitely turn the tide at Rank 24!"

Chen Du said with determined eyes.

He was naturally deceiving the Thousand-Faced Tree, but at such a time, a firm statement often greatly inspires belief, thereby leading to a higher chance of survival.

Although the High Martial Civilization was not strong, it was a civilized one, and these words were part of the general knowledge curriculum.

As for whether he could turn the tide... Chen Du only knew that at Rank 24, he would receive his fourth evolution.

The previous three were at Rank 6, Rank 12, and Rank 18, and what they gave were all Mystic Treasures.

In other words, excluding the three Mystic Treasures bestowed by the Crystal Space, the number of Mystic Treasures Chen Du himself had awakened was actually only seven.

There were only 10 slots on the star plate; there was no fantasy of an eleventh Mystic Treasure. Further evolution could no longer yield Mystic Treasures.

This once made Chen Du very curious: what would he gain from his fourth evolution?

Even if he couldn't turn the tide, fulfilling this wish before death would be good.

The next moment, Chen Du felt a small needle prick his left arm.

That was the Thousand-Faced Tree's tentacle, and Chen Du naturally didn't refuse.

Immediately after, an indescribable warm current poured in.

That sensation of leveling up quickly spread from his left arm to his entire body.

Life Strength Rank 23.1... Life Strength Rank 23.3... Life Strength Rank 23.5... The Rank rose steadily, like water pouring from a laboratory beaker into a test tube.

In an instant, he reached Rank 24!

The speed of this upgrade was even faster than Chen Du had imagined; from the needle prick to Rank 24, it took less than 2 seconds in total.

Chen Du, who had originally expended a lot of physical strength, also recovered significantly with this Rank increase, feeling even better than his previous 50% stamina state.

At this moment, the Black Dragon Aliens in the sky strangely did not launch an attack.

This was not to cooperate with him, but because they were waiting for the black spring to gather more Little Black Dragon Kings to surround him.

Thirteen Little Black Dragon Kings now formed a circle directly above Chen Du. The two strongest Black Dragon Kings, one being the original form who had also finished its Bloom state, and the other a Perfect Clone, were in the center of the circle.

Both Dragons stared menacingly at Chen Du below.

Whoosh!

A Dragon roar.

It seemed to be the final command to attack.

Fifteen Black Dragon Aliens collectively swooped down like eagles locking onto their prey.

The two strongest Black Dragon Kings were the first to charge, followed closely by the thirteen Little Black Dragon Kings forming the circle.

These Little Black Dragon Kings were not strong enough to be a match for Chen Du, but their main purpose was not to fight, but to hinder him from escaping.

If even one of them could block Chen Du for just a second, the other twelve could swarm him, surrounding him, and finally, the two Black Dragon Kings would finish him off.

"Chen Du!"

At this moment of life and death, the Thousand-Faced Tree exclaimed.

Due to Rank Differential Balance, his Rank had now become 25. Although it dropped by 1 Rank, he was still an Advanced Aerial Warrior.

Because of his ability, Chen Du could hear the fatigue and weakness in his voice.

"Don't worry."

"I'm going to win!"

Facing the fifteen Black Dragon Aliens descending from the sky, Chen Du's eyes flashed with absolute confidence.

He never dreamed that his fourth evolution would grant him such power!

He saw his lips curve slightly upwards, raising the long sword in his hand and flicking it downwards, his confident eyes smiling as he looked at the original Black Dragon King.

Absolute Copy, capable of replicating any ability at the current and lower stages, right?

Then I'll show you the power beyond Skysoaring!

The next moment, a golden light once again emanated from Chen Du.

"Is it that move again?"

The Thousand-Faced Tree sounded a little disappointed. Although the color of the golden light at this time was slightly different from before, in his opinion, if it was just some changes to the ability itself, it would be useless.

After all, no matter how it changed, it couldn't deviate from the foundation, and it would also be copied by the opponent, leading to a faster death.

But a moment later.

This golden light did not, as before, cover Chen Du like a phone screen protector, but rather spread out like a giant cover, with Chen Du at its center, instantly expanding.

In an instant, it enveloped this entire world!

"Domain Expansion!"
