To be honest, he was not reluctant.

As a walker of [nothingness], he does not need to comprehend [life]. Moreover, in his opinion, this [divinity] does not belong to him.

This is his promise to Mr. Cui, and it is also the proof that Mr. Cui is an upright person.

Cheng Shi never regarded it as a kind of power, but only as a souvenir of his witnessing the "light of humanity".

But now, he suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with using this [Divine Power of Prosperity] here.

Because of Cui Qiushi, because of the fire bearer!

The World Tree has never blossomed and borne fruit, which means that all the historical accounts of the effects of the Whispering Petals are speculations by later generations.

But even if it is just speculation, the Fire Bearers who are in a crisis of trust also need a petal like this to stabilize the morale of the army.

Therefore, handing over this [divinity] in exchange for the ripening of the Conjugated Whisper and a real Whisper petal is Cheng Shi's best explanation to the Fire Bearers who summoned him.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Cui's kindness was finally repaid by Cui Qiushi.

Cheng Shi looked at the scholar, then at Conjugate Whispering behind him, and after feeling all kinds of emotions in his heart, he decisively made his own choice.

"What do I need to do?"

There was a glimmer of hope in Kwei's eyes.

“Young man, you don’t have to do anything.

I still have some ability to take out the [Prosperity] from your body.

You just need to relax your body and don't resist, and I can catalyze the conjugated whisper in the shortest possible time, making it...

Real maturity!"

Not a lie.

There is no need to lie.

Cheng Shi had already seen that this great scholar had devoted everything to this experiment.

He didn't care about anything else except the experimental results.

“It’s possible, but…

I have another condition."

It was time for Cheng Shi to bargain again. He looked at the scholar with burning eyes and directly quoted his price without waiting for the other party to respond.

"You are free to use the [Prosperity Divinity] in my body, but before it bears fruit, I need you to help me preserve two..." He suddenly realized something was wrong halfway through his speech and immediately changed his words, "All the petals of the Conjugated Whisper that have not yet withered!"

Since the World Tree has never blossomed and borne fruit, the record in historical materials that it only had two petals must be false.

In that case, since we’re here, what’s wrong with asking for a little more?

It’s not like I didn’t pay.

Kewei was slightly stunned, and said hesitantly:

“Conjugated Whisper is not a plant in the common human understanding. Although according to our inference, it can indeed self-fertilize and bloom and bear fruit, we have no way of knowing whether plucking its petals will affect its fruiting.

So, for the birth of fruit, I cannot guarantee your needs...

But if there are enough whispering trees blooming, this shouldn't be a difficult task.

so......"

The scholar's meaning was very clear, he was not sure he could give Cheng Shi what he wanted.

Cheng Shi frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he had to accept that Kewei's promise was not a promise.

Because he had no choice.

[Destiny] and [Truth] are probably waiting for this moment.

"Okay, I understand." His answer was concise and to the point. "Let's do it. Save time."

"Thank you, thank you. The Department of Void Matter and Energy will remember you, the Tower of Matter and Energy will remember you, and history will remember you!"

The scholar nodded vigorously, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

remember?

It’s better not to remember it.

Cheng Shi smiled, relaxed his body and spread out his arms.

When the great scholar saw him like this, he was also moved.

He just stretched out a hand and pointed at the air. Where his fingertips touched, reality quietly faded away, and countless void cracks appeared before his eyes.

In these large and small void cracks, densely packed tree roots are intertwined, and above them flows the light of [nothingness] and [existence] entangled, which is both as black as ink and brilliantly colorful.

Under Kwei's urging, countless tiny roots "crawled" out of the cracks in the void and stretched towards Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi just watched the roots quickly penetrate into his body without moving.

It wasn't that he had lost his vigilance, but he discovered that the roots of the conjugated whispers actually resonated faintly with him.

Just like the feeling of jumping into [Laughter and Mockery], the moment the roots pierced into his body, Cheng Shi felt that he was home again.

"Don't be nervous, don't be afraid, they won't drain your life force.

They were just hungry, smelled prosperity, and were eager to have a good meal.

You know, when the Conjugate Whispering tree species was first planted, it was catalyzed by the [Prosperity Divinity].

Perhaps they smelled the scent of their ‘mother’, so they couldn’t wait any longer.”

"......"

The divinity of prosperity is diminishing.

The giant tree was actually absorbing them, and as the roots were eating, the branches and leaves of the Conjugate Whisper began to sway slightly.

They become greener and more vibrant.

The glass curtain walls seem to be surrounded by a set of highly saturated filters, making the entire laboratory look lush and green.

But even so, Cheng Shi still couldn't find a flower, not even a bud, on the visible crown branches of this giant tree.

The great scholars were equally puzzled.

Because after several minutes of absorption, there was not much [divinity] left in Cheng's body.

"Great scholar...are you sure it only has half a year left to mature?"
