Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton-Chapter 1939 - 1500: We Can Learn Too

In the direction Ange pointed out where three incremental sources are located, a gigantic vine slowly drifted here, its roots extending in all directions, occasionally stretching into space rifts, probing afar as if searching for something.

After an unknown amount of time, the vine suddenly twisted dramatically: "Found it."

Immediately, the vine turned and swiftly shot towards the direction in front.

Soon, the vine arrived at the target’s front, in the pitch-black void, devoid of light and dust, yet abruptly there appeared a massive sphere. In the void, it emitted no active wave at all; had it not been for the roots touching it, it might not have been noticed even when passing by.

The massive vine slowly approached, ultimately hovering above the large sphere, extending roots to cautiously touch the surface of the sphere.

A faint sizzling sound was heard, a large amount of white smoke rose gracefully in the air. Countless roots immediately curled up from being scorched; evidently, the surface of the sphere possessed an exceedingly high temperature.

The void lacked air or other mediums, the heat could not dissipate, only capable of radiating away in the form of light. If it did not emit light, the sphere would not lose heat, making it difficult to detect this scalding sphere even at close range.

The vine continuously stretched out its roots, allowing them to be scorched. Only when a sufficient amount of carbonization accumulated, forming a layer of carbonization on the sphere’s surface, did its entire trunk settle down.

Tock, tock, tock—like knocking on a door, the vine extended a branch to tap the surface of the sphere, simultaneously transmitting a thought: "It’s me, Ancient Vine."

After knocking for several dozen minutes, it finally sensed an aura inside the sphere slowly awakening.

"Dark Star, wake up, it’s me, Ancient Vine." Sensing the aura awakening, Ancient Man Snake knocked more vigorously.

Shortly after, an irritable voice sounded from within the sphere: "Annoying, knock again and I’ll kill."

Ancient Man Snake stopped the knocking, but the voice continued: "You once said, when someone capable of creating an incremental body appears, call to wake you, remember? Now, he has appeared."

"Really?" A cry of surprise sounded from inside the giant sphere, the aura rapidly expanding, and the temperature on the surface grew increasingly higher.

The layer of carbonization initially laid down was enough to insulate the heat, but as the temperature rose, Ancient Man Snake suddenly felt its feet burning; hurriedly supporting its trunk, its roots alternately lifted and lowered, constantly thickening the temperature of the carbonization layer at the foothold.

Because of its size and movement, Ancient Man Snake appeared as if it were dancing a comical hotfoot dance.

Crack, the high-temperature surface suddenly split open a crack, revealing not scalding magma inside, but a dark red divine light; could it be that this massive sphere is a God Star?

"Indeed, Dark Star, the entity capable of creating an incremental body has appeared; you can now inform me why you sought someone capable of creating an incremental body?" Ancient Man Snake asked.

This question had persisted in Ancient Man Snake’s heart for a long, long time, so long that it nearly forgot about it, until Ange unexpectedly created an incremental body, prompting the recollection.

However, at that time, it still parasitized on the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms, holding onto a glimmer of hope, never considering giving up until it was confirmed hopeless, at which point it decisively acted.

This Dark Star was its final bargaining chip for decisive action; without Dark Star, it might not have been so resolute.

Dark Star did not directly answer but instead asked: "How long have I been asleep?"

Ancient Man Snake paused, hesitantly answering: "Too long, I can’t remember clearly, maybe tens of millions of years."

"That long? Where is the person who creates incremental bodies? Take me to him." Dark Star said.

"No, no, no, you still haven’t told me why you seek someone who can create incremental bodies? Moreover, how did you know millions of years ago that such a person would appear? How do you know?" Ancient Man Snake asked.

Dark Star remained silent for a long time before suddenly saying: "You wouldn’t want to know."

"You haven’t said a word, how would I know I wouldn’t want to?" Ancient Man Snake was anxious, somewhat angrily said.

Driven by this increment-creating Ange to detach from the parasite, now being told it wouldn’t want to know?

No, it absolutely wants to know, it desperately wants to know what this Ange is, why it has been forced into such predicament, it wants even more desperately to find a way to take action against the counterpart.

Dark Star was silent for quite a while, then slowly said: "You wouldn’t want to know, you just need to know I remain here to eliminate the one who can create an incremental body."

"Why?" Ancient Man Snake asked puzzled: "Is the one who creates incremental bodies very dangerous?"

"Extremely dangerous, a closed world, everything tends toward chaos; without increment, the world would collapse, turn into disorderly chaos, while increment is the sole thing capable of reversing the entire process. The person who creates an incremental body is the god of this world." Dark Star said.

Ancient Man Snake froze: "That’s called dangerous? Isn’t it beneficial?"

Dark Star slowly said: "The destruction of one world is the rebirth of another, it’s part of nature."

Part of nature? Letting my world perish to give birth to another? What kind of nature is that? Isn’t it absurd? What does the rebirth of another world have to do with it?

Thinking of this, Ancient Man Snake suddenly somewhat understood why the counterpart kept emphasizing ’you wouldn’t want to know,’ it really doesn’t want to know these.

After contemplating for a bit, Ancient Man Snake turned to ask: "What about you? Why must you eliminate it? Are you from another world?"

"No, you wouldn’t want to know, tell me, where is the one who creates an incremental body?" Dark Star asked again.

Ancient Man Snake went silent, only after quite a while did it say: "I suddenly don’t wish to tell you."

"Whether you tell or not doesn’t matter." Dark Star slowly said, meanwhile, its surface temperature rose higher, reaching a critical point, the hard shell on the surface began to melt, with infinite divine light surging forth.

Just like that, a pitch-black gigantic sphere transformed into a dazzling radiant God Star.

"Back then, those Star Movers detonated nearly all God Stars, leaving one last one as an anchor for a cage; you also parasitized on the Divine Tree there, now that you abandoned the God Star, you were probably driven away by those creating incremental bodies, right?"

Dark Star said, while a dazzling, but slightly smaller, light ball leapt forward—Star Attraction.

"You... you... you actually know Star Attraction? What on earth are you?" Ancient Man Snake was dumbfounded, the Masters of Stars knowing Star Attraction is understandable, but why does this God Star know it as well?

Dark Star’s gigantic body slowly moved under the drag of Star Attraction, speaking while moving: "We Dark Stars are a collective term for all weak, incomplete, abnormal, and aging God Stars, but that doesn’t mean we’re foolish. We also possess increment, the skill of incremental body, we can also learn."
