Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Chapter 204, Top Level, Radiant Orange



Chapter 204, Top Level, Radiant Orange

Mo Ming arrived at the core area of ​​the shelter and stared at the tall and ancient tree in front of him.

This is where the strongest protective force of the sanctuary takes root: the Tree King Flower. Its branches and leaves are lush, its canopy is like an umbrella, and its thick trunk exudes an ancient aura.

As the most important guardian of the sanctuary, Shangshang's existence has always been Mo Ming's greatest source of confidence. And today, he made a careful decision—to promote Shangshang to a Radiant Orange-level ferocious beast.

"Shangshang, I've made up my mind. I'll use this Beast Upgrade Scroll on you." Mo Ming sighed softly, his tone firm.

His decision was not impulsive, but rather a well-considered one. At this stage, he did not have enough strength to wage war in the north and south; the stability and tranquility of the shelter were of paramount importance.

Shangshang, as the overlord of the tree realm, possesses two super talents: "King of Realms" and "Lord of Domains," and was born to protect. Its power is not biased towards offense, but it is unparalleled in defense.

If it can be upgraded to the Radiant Orange level, the safety of the entire shelter will be significantly improved, which is definitely the most cost-effective option for Mo Ming at present.

The treetop swayed slightly, its branches and leaves rustling, as if responding to Mo Ming's decision. It offered no objection, and even seemed somewhat expectant.

Having experienced the benefits of the previous mutation scroll, it understood the importance of strength. The sanctuary was its home, and its existence was to protect it.

Mo Ming took out the beast upgrade scroll from his storage space. The scroll emitted a faint purple light, and runes flowed on its surface, as if they were alive. The ancient and mysterious aura made Mo Ming's heart tremble slightly; this was a true treasure.

"Are you ready?" Mo Ming looked up and asked softly.

The tree trunk leaned slightly, and the branches swayed gently, telling Mo Ming that it was ready to begin at any time.

Mo Ming took a deep breath and slowly unfurled the scroll. As the scroll was fully unfurled, a powerful energy wave instantly spread out, and the surrounding air seemed to become heavy.

The runes on the scroll lit up, emitting a dazzling purple glow, transforming into delicate streams of light that seemed to carry the blessing of some ancient power, instantly surging up the tree trunk.

These streams of light flowed smoothly and gracefully, like a gentle babbling brook or a surging river, quickly covering every leaf and branch, submerging its entire trunk.

Wherever the light touched, it seemed to awaken a dormant power, emanating a sacred and peaceful aura of majesty from within. The entire process proceeded without any abrupt changes, instead filled with a strange tranquility and solemnity, as if an ancient ritual were underway.

The tree trunk was the first to undergo noticeable changes. The original thick trunk, which was as tall as a three-story building and had a slightly dark brown wood grain, rapidly transformed under the purple light.

The originally rough bark gradually became smooth, and the wood grain turned into a golden-purple color, faintly shimmering.

These golden-purple patterns resemble ancient symbols, the imprint of the most mysterious power in the world. The patterns connect with each other, forming a complex and bizarre design. They pulsate constantly, as if they were alive.

Not only its color and texture, but its volume is also changing.

The tree trunk grew rapidly, expanding from 30 meters high to over 100 meters, and its thickness increased from 5 meters to over 10 meters wide, resembling a majestic ancient pillar, making it appear even more indestructible.

The interwoven gold and purple runes climbed upwards, covering every leaf on the treetop, and each leaf began to emit a faint golden-green glow. This glow was warm and gentle, yet it carried an indescribable pressure that commanded respect.

Gradually, its root system also changed. The roots that were originally rooted in the earth had become deeply embedded in the soil, but now, those roots became thicker and stronger.

They stretched out rapidly, as if they had come alive, constantly spreading deeper underground and merging into every inch of the soil.

Golden-purple veins spread along these roots, as if the tree were beginning to connect tightly with this land, ultimately becoming one with it. This was not ordinary growth, but a sublimation that completely transcended the norm; it was no longer an ordinary tree, but a new existence.

The canopy above also underwent a stunning transformation. The already massive branches and leaves, nourished by the sunlight, continued to spread outwards, becoming even more lush, with golden-purple veins faintly visible on the leaves.

At the heart of the tree canopy, a dazzling light began to gather—a crystal gradually taking shape! This crystal was crystal clear, as if it contained the power of the entire world. Its radiance was like that of a star, completely illuminating the entire shelter.

But this is only the beginning of the transformation.

Suddenly, a subtle tremor came from the branches and leaves deep within the tree canopy. The air around seemed to freeze for a second, and then, four special fruits began to gradually condense within the upper canopy.

Each fruit hung in a very secluded spot, the surrounding branches and leaves seemingly swaying gently as if guarding it. The surface of these four fruits emitted different eerie lights: golden, purple, green, and pale red, each radiance seemingly alive, pulsating incessantly.

Each fruit is the size of a fist, but they don't look like ordinary fruits. Instead, they seem to be cores formed by some kind of power, containing unfathomable mysteries.

As Mo Ming stared intently at the fruits, he could vaguely sense an indescribable powerful aura flowing within them. They seemed to be connected in some way, their faint light winding and intertwined, forming a mysterious structure resembling an array.

Mo Ming stepped forward, his heart filled with unprecedented shock. He watched the changes in Shang Shang and vaguely felt that these fruits might not only be symbols of Shang Shang's power, but might even be some kind of higher-level existence.

"Could this be... the true evolution of super life forms in the tree world!" Mo Ming murmured to himself, his tone filled with undisguised joy and awe.

Bathed in the golden-purple crystalline light, the tree canopy appeared even more profound and majestic, while the four fruits hung silently high above, as if awaiting the discovery of their true meaning. Its entire form had been transformed, subtly revealing the familiarity of a powerful being.

When the final changes are over, Shangshang will have completely advanced!

Its aura suddenly erupted—the aura of the Radiant Orange level! This aura swept across the surrounding area like a tidal wave, spreading through the earth and reaching a range of dozens of miles. Even the most ferocious beasts were deterred from approaching it by such pressure.

However, Mo Ming's expression was somewhat complicated, because he wondered if the powerful aura of the Radiant Orange level released by Shang Shang would trigger other Radiant Orange level beings in the distance.

Just then, a massive flow of information suddenly flooded into Mo Ming's mind.
