Chapter 987: Chapter 411: Becoming a Divine Being

The eternal sun hangs on the horizon, and today the blue sky is cloudless, letting the blazing sunlight fully spill onto the endless blue sea.

This golden light casts a golden pathway on the sea, leading into the distance.

On this boundless sea, a ship sails along this golden course, the waves parted to either side, marking its direction.

The waves traversing the golden path glitter like golden powder under the sunlight.

The bow of this ship, extraordinarily unique, resembles a bird’s head.

Beautiful singing emanates from the bird’s head, drifting around the entire ship.

A golden compass on the ship’s sail, and the eye within the compass, indicate the ship’s owner.

Direct your gaze to the deck, where there is a grassy area entirely impossible for other ships.

A big tree grows in the central garden on the deck, with fist-sized diamonds of various colors hanging from its branches.

These diamonds are rhombus-shaped and hang down like lush fruits.

Brilliant light streaks across the sky.

A giant entity flaps its wings and descends. The strong wind pressure causes the grass on the deck and the green leaves of the tree to rustle loudly.

Ulu Liwus lands on the deck, her body now larger.

The ship’s deck already seems cramped to accommodate her, and to stretch out, Ulu Liwus’s tail has to be curled or hang directly into the sea.

The pillar-shaped crystal tree bound on the large tree has been moved to the center by Alka.

Under the sunlight, it emits a brilliant glow.

Everyone except Alka is gathered here.

But today’s deck lacks much of the past hustle and bustle, missing the usual lively atmosphere.

In the past, music and dance, along with the laughter of the Puppet Girls, filled the deck.

But obviously, none of that is present now.

The source of the Puppet Girls’ power and their leader are still sealed in the crystal, nurturing a new life.

"Crack."

A cracking sound rings in everyone’s ears, instantly making everyone tense. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

They hold their breath and look at the central crystal pillar.

Jason slightly raises his hand, gently pushing the dragon’s head near his ear a bit further aside.

Ulu Liwus’s heavy breathing is restrained, making it somewhat itchy for others.

If this were before, with Jason doing this, Ulu Liwus would definitely have deliberately turned her head back to blow at his neck.

But now Ulu Liwus’s attention is completely elsewhere, her massive dragon eyes gleaming, watching intently like everyone else.

In the midst of everyone’s heavy breathing.

The sound of breaking glass becomes more frequent and louder. As the cracking sound continues, dense cracks begin to spread all over the crystal, and light overflows from within.

However, this light is no longer the dazzling brilliance cast by the sun, but a light like fresh blood, a blood-red glow emanates.

Seeing the light, everyone is instead not too worried, as this is the brilliance that the Treasure was originally supposed to emit, with the light overflowing.

"Pop!"

A crisp sound rings out, and the Crystal Stone shatters into bits, scattering around, immediately merging into the air, dispersing as spots of Magic Power.

The fleshy ball originally enveloped by Magic Power inside the crystal is undergoing changes within the blood-red glow.

Thump!

Thump!

With sounds like a heartbeat ringing out.

The heartbeat-like sounds grow denser, more substantial.

It drives everyone’s hearts to drum along in unison.

The red light begins to gather.

The vast red light coalesces into a humanoid figure glowing red, but all that can be seen is a silhouette.

Only Alka can see the thoughts of Lucilia flickering within the silhouette.

"Hoo!"

The humanoid silhouette emits the sound of Lucilia exhaling.

The light retracts.

Lucilia’s figure is revealed.

Her once emerald green hair now unmistakably has strands of blood-red mingled within.

Clearly, the strange color combination between red and green is extraordinarily harmonious in her hair color.

Just like... the blood-red roses dotting among flowers, making her entire hair color even more brilliant.

Lucilia’s appearance remains as always, alabaster as jade, stunningly beautiful.

But her eyes have transformed from their past emerald into emerald accented with red blossoms.

Just like her hair color.

Her clothes have completely turned into a red dress, falling downwards, with some green thorns entwined around it.

Notably, Lucilia’s ears have become even sharper than before, even slightly elongated upward.

Her back is adorned with red aura, forming something like wings, supporting her in flight like lines.

Lucilia floats this way, drifting to Alka’s front, then directly clinging to his shoulder, letting out another heavy breath.

"Ah, so tired," Lucilia’s clear voice is heard.

Alka lifts her from his shoulder, letting her lie in his hands.

Looking at Lucilia in his hands, Alka tilts his head to thoroughly observe her.
