At this moment, Wu You's mind was entirely focused on the mountain tree that was trying to break through the barrier of the higher rank.

They were still only worried about the excessive size of the trees on the mountain, completely unaware of the panic and changes caused by the various external political storms.

Of course, Wu You also sensed the shifts in various stances, but he didn't think that deep down. He was most concerned about the mountain trees' crazy attraction to this kind of energy.

The first to react was actually the primordial demon Sarazo.

Many of its blessed believers are currently in the emergency room. They all felt the impact of the widespread disruption to medical facilities along the southeast coast.

The believers' emotional fluctuations were relayed to Saraso, making it aware that there was some panic and information blockage outside.

This allowed Wu You to immediately learn about the outside information and understand that there was no immediate danger of a plane collision.

It was late at night, and with the rising fog and positional storm, visual observation and scanning by information equipment posed no threat whatsoever.

The worst fear is that a plane will crash into us.

The disturbances in magnetic fields and signals at all levels are centered on the coastal area, with the overall radiation range affecting three provinces, and showing a decreasing trend towards the surrounding areas.

This anomaly was quickly detected by a large state-owned institution, which ruled out the possibility of an attack by another country in a very short time.

Because so far, no country has been able to achieve such a wide range and depth of interference.

Even if it did happen, how was the attack carried out? Why did they suddenly decide to attack China at night? And why didn't they attack more important targets?

Today's Chinese technology, whether in the military or civilian sectors, is no longer what it used to be. It's possible that some technologies are not quite up to par, but it's absurd to say that China is so far ahead that it can't even react in time.

Therefore, this widespread disruption quickly turned to astronomical research.

National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

A group of on-duty observers got busy, making one phone call after another.

"Ring ring ring ring... Ring ring ring ring..."

The phone on the bedside table vibrated and rang.

A hand covered in age spots picked up the phone.

The phone number displayed was Zhou Yunsheng, one of the phone owner's most prized students, and currently the director of the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"Hello, this is Cheng Maoguan."

Zhou Yunsheng's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Teacher, please make sure to come to the headquarters of the observatory within the academy."

"good!"

The old man didn't say much. Zhou Yunsheng had always respected him, so something serious must have happened.

His wife complained a couple of times before falling back asleep.

"Teacher, your car will be here in 8 minutes!"

"Okay, I'll wait. Tell me the general situation."

...

Similar scenarios were playing out everywhere, with almost every prominent astronomer being visited late at night and then picked up in a private car.

Before the arrival of the heavyweight experts, countless observational data were collected at headquarters from various unaffected observatories and stations.

Zhou Yunsheng frowned deeply as he looked at the observation data on the electronic screen.

According to monitoring data from observation stations in the outer periphery that were less affected, this storm is extremely complex.

It is mainly composed of substances similar to cosmic storms, which drive and influence the Earth's own small-scale magnetic field.

Radioactive charged particles, high-energy cosmic rays, geomagnetic reactions...

But these are just things on paper.

No observable major impact occurred from the celestial body, and there were no prior warning observations.

It seems to have suddenly formed from outside the earth and then concentrated in such a small area to enter the surface.

Fortunately, so far, it has not had any impact on the human body, at most causing some equipment to malfunction.

We can only wait for the collective wisdom of everyone.

About half an hour later, the National Astronomical Observatories headquarters gathered astronomers from both the older and younger generations who could be brought in a short time, along with young researchers from the observatory, making it a gathering of three generations.

Wearing his reading glasses, which he had kept for over 20 years, 82-year-old Cheng Maoguan carefully examined the analysis table in his hand, just like everyone else.

Several conference tables were temporarily set up in the observation and statistics hall, covered with documents and data tables.

As soon as new data is observed, it will be printed out and sent here immediately.

When all known astronomical common sense could hardly explain the phenomenon along the southeast coast, a somewhat absurd idea appeared in Cheng Maoguan's mind: second kind of contact?

"Director!!"

A young research fellow suddenly shouted from his seat, breaking the silence of the many experts.

"The storm of mixed positions has disappeared!"

"What!?"

All the experts turned their heads in surprise.

The sudden storm of stance lasted for less than an hour, and then, just like when it came, it vanished without a trace.

The trees on the mountain, which had reached a total height of three thousand meters, finally stopped growing, and their lush foliage almost covered the entire Shiniu Mountain area.

Its size and area truly reach the exaggerated level of a small city.

Wu You looked on helplessly from the air.

This is Spartacus! The illusion created by the rising mist is indeed very strong. As long as the height difference with the surrounding mountains is not much different, it will not be detected. In addition, the influence of mental ability makes it even more foolproof.

But now, at 3,000 meters high, it's not just a matter of crashing into a plane anymore; it's even blocking out the surrounding sunlight.

What should we do? Should we just take away the trees in the mountain range?

But if we take it away now, half of Qiantang will collapse.

System notification: The Mountain Tree has successfully undergone a super-tier evolution, resulting in a significant change in its life essence. Would you like to rename it?

The system's notification interrupted Wu You's dilemma, but it also cheered him up, reminding him that perhaps he had no reason to worry at all.

When the Mountain Tree was created, the issue of being discovered when flying was taken into consideration, which is why the misty vapor appeared later. The affinity between the mind and body is based on the World Tree's ability to create illusions.

There's no reason why evolving into a higher life form would mean regressing even in the most basic concepts.

Choose to rename: Natural Ancient Tree

The name has been confirmed.

Alchemical Creature: Ancient Tree of Nature, Name: None available

Talents: Unyielding Immortality, Natural Power, Interference Between Reality and Illusion, Materialization of Spiritual Stance

Abilities: Purification, Kindness, Spiritual Connection, Life Protection, Evolutionary Energy

Basic rating: Gold Level 1 (Can be cultivated, requires Transcendent Energy Materials)

System Description: A miraculous creature that stands above all living beings.

The new system description ended in Wu You's consciousness.

It's as if it's announcing the arrival of a true gold-level creature.

A wave, neither spiritual nor material, emanated from the ancient tree.

"Gulp..."

A thumping sound, audible only to Wu You, seemed as if the ancient tree had just stirred, yet it also seemed as if it hadn't.

This brief and imperceptible fluctuation is like a gravitational tide.

It spread to every corner of the world in an instant.

Some of the animals noticed it, but were at a loss.

Some sensitive humans can also sense it, but they don't pay as much attention to it as they do to mosquito bites.

However, there is another kind of creature on this planet that seems to understand the meaning of this fluctuation from birth.

All the alchemical creatures briefly stopped what they were doing.

Whether surprised, bewildered, disappointed, or calm, they raise their heads or close their eyes, carefully sensing the scene.

Even the giant sea monsters that usually frolicked in the sea were no exception.

Like Wu You, they had never seen a gold-level creature and had no idea of ​​the power of creatures at this level.
