Chapter 1376 - 805: Natural True God Tree-shaped Avatar_3

The Natural True God said regretfully: "I am not all-knowing and all-powerful. As for the White Tower Civilization you mentioned, I know nothing of it. However, about the Crystal Divine Seat, I do know a bit."

"This is top-secret information known only to me and a very small number of Overlords. If you're willing to listen, I can explain it to you, but it will also consume your one and only chance to ask a question."

Dragon Cypress said decisively: "Please explain it in detail, Natural True God!"

The Natural True God said: "In the Old Universe Era, our Natural Civilization collected intelligence on other civilizations in the Universe through various channels, and carried out classification and grading on them. The main consideration was whether, now or in the future, they would pose a threat to the survival of the Natural Civilization, and the degree of that threat."

"There were five levels in total: Zero Level, no threat; First Level, mild threat; Level Two, severe threat; Third Level, extremely severe threat; Level 4, extreme threat."

"Level 4 corresponds to God-Level Civilizations, or civilizations that may evolve into God-Level, or civilizations that might, through some unusual path, grasp Divine Level Power."

"The Crystal Divine Seat has a 'Kester Elemental Body Civilization'. We classified it as 'Level 4 extreme threat', which is the highest grade—civilizations that may threaten the very existence of our Natural Civilization."

"However, the one that can truly pose a threat to us is not the Kester Elemental Body Civilization, but the Crystal Divine Seat itself."

"The so‑called Crystal Divine Seat is a God-Level Seal Artifact forged in the Ancient Cosmic Era by an unknown Old God, using the galactic-center Black Hole of a Star System as material. Sealed within it should be a God-Level existence."

"For an existence that cannot be killed, it should have been sealed and then banished into the absolute Void outside the Universe, but for some unknown reason it returned to the Main Universe."

"The Crystal Divine Seat Star Cluster is far too distant from us. Just as we were about to plan and organize an Expeditionary Army to attack, seize the Crystal Divine Seat and banish it again, an abrupt mutation occurred in Cosmic Space, and the Universe headed toward destruction twenty billion years earlier than Bitter Tea's prediction. We were busy struggling to survive, so that matter was shelved."

"In the disaster of Cosmic Destruction, the Crystal Divine Seat and the Old God sealed within it have two possible endings: the first, annihilation and extinction; the second, with the help of the Kester Elemental Body Civilization, slipping into the Void and avoiding the calamity."

The Natural True God said: "I can feel that your heart is deeply uneasy about this."

Dragon Cypress: "Yes."

Dragon Cypress said: "Here's what happened. I had just left my Home Planet and was developing in the Venus Star System. I followed an adventure squad of the Flame Spider Tribe to explore an Old Universe Civilization ruin named 'Solitary Wolf'..."

Dragon Cypress related everything in detail: including the Artist's legacy, the Purple-Red Technology Star Core, the Artist Combat Armor, the Leader-Level Starship, the Spatial Law Divine Stone, the Spatial Law Divine Tree, as well as the Radiant Throne and Black Tower left behind by the Artist.

"Your worries are not entirely unnecessary."

The Natural True God said: "If they really found a way to survive the disaster of Cosmic Destruction, then they should now also be at the edge of the universe, having found a suitable Star System and begun to redevelop."

"Your name is Dragon Cypress? Dragon Cypress, I'll give you a mission. In the future, when you've grown up and have the strength, go take a look. If they're still there, we'll need to gather power and erase them in time."

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Such a huge trouble,

judging from his tone, the Natural True God doesn't take it seriously at all!

Dragon Cypress suggested: "The Saint Butterfly Warriors are not afraid of Death. You could have the Saint Butterfly Tribe dispatch one or two Overlord Realm powerhouses to go investigate."

"They probably can't spare any extra Overlord Realm Warriors."

The Natural True God asked: "Aren't you curious how many Level 4 extreme-threat civilizations we of the Natural Civilization listed in the Old Universe Era—civilizations that could potentially threaten our existence?"

Dragon Cypress asked: "How many?"

The Natural True God said: "A neat one thousand."

Dragon Cypress: "!!!"

Dragon Cypress asked: "All of them Level 4 God-Level Civilizations? Or civilizations with hope of breaking through and advancing to God-Level?"

The Natural True God said: "There is no second God-Level Civilization, but many Level 3 Peak and Demigod-Level Civilizations are not to be underestimated."

The Natural True God said: "Because the Old Universe was destroyed twenty billion years earlier than predicted, a large number of powerful civilizations perished, either because they were unprepared or not sufficiently prepared. But there were also civilizations that made thorough preparations and may have safely weathered the cataclysm."

"For all Life, survival is a cold and brutal challenge."

The Natural True God said: "There is no upper limit to the development of a Civilization, and the expansion of a race never truly stops. A single Universe is destined to allow only one super-civilization to exist. The one thousand Level 4 extreme-threat civilizations of the Old Universe Era must all be investigated, to be sure they no longer exist."

Dragon Cypress fell silent.

So that's how it is...

There were actually as many as a thousand civilizations that could threaten the Natural Civilization...

And this concerns the survival of civilizations; it has nothing to do with right or wrong, with justice or evil.

Dragon Cypress said: "Natural True God, the mission you've assigned is quite reasonable, but the problem is, I'm afraid I don't have that kind of Ability."

The Natural True God said: "Then work hard to enhance your Ability."

Dragon Cypress: "..."

Dragon Cypress asked: "Then how should I improve myself?"

The Natural True God said: "That's your second question. Since you didn't put this in the first sequence to ask me, that means you already have confidence in your own heart. In that case, there's no need for me to say more."

With that,

space rippled faintly, Dragon Cypress's Soul Perception vanished, and when his consciousness returned, he was once again surrounded by the familiar oppressive aura of Metal System Primordial Energy.

PS1: Happy Children's Day to all readers~

ps2: Recently there are two Star Realm–type fanfics, "Natural Godsend" and "Thousand Trees Tales". I've read "Natural Godsend" and think it's pretty good; its performance so far is decent, and it's about to go on sale. You can go take a look, and if you feel it's okay, give it a first-subscription to support. Let's all write together and make this niche genre big and strong.
