Chapter 982: The Mystery of Outsider Rebirth (1/2)

For an outsider, titan, or Ancientbeast to be reborn, they would have to be at the eighth grade or higher.

For most eighth grade titans, outsiders, and Ancientbeasts, as long as they managed to secure their hearts, or prismatic crystals for the Phantasms, they could be reborn with the help of a ninth or tenth grade senior of their race.

Eighth grade ones still had to rely on their seniors to finish the process.

However, as long as ninth grade outsider grand patriarchs still had their hearts intact, they would be able to channel flesh power and bring themselves back to life with no external assistance.

As for tenth grade grand monarchs, a drop of Blood Essence was enough for them to regenerate their bones, flesh, and blood, and eventually come back to life.

For this reason, many tenth grade grand monarchs would leave a drop of their Blood Essence in their race’s holy land before marching off to battle.

This way, even if they perished away from home, that drop of Blood Essence would allow them to rebuild their bodies and come back to life.

Therefore, tenth grade grand monarchs were very hard to kill completely. There was even a saying that they couldn’t be annihilated.

As difficult as they were to eliminate, once their reserved Blood Essence was destroyed, so was their chance at being reborn.

Furthermore, being reborn wouldn’t change their lifespan.

Their Blood Essence, hearts, and every part of their bodies was branded with their Bloodline Crystal Chains, which carried the memories of their lifespan.

Aside from that, their grades would also plunge after their rebirth. They would have to climb back to their original grades. Even though it would take them much less time to do so than advancing to such grades for the first time, it would still take a significant amount of time.

Jing Feiyang and the other two’s words allowed Nie Tian to come to a brand new understanding of outsider rebirths.

Because of this, he suddenly understood how he had managed to activate the Flame Dragon Armor’s Blood Core, and regenerate Bloodline Crystal Chains for the Bone Blood Demon.

Both the Flame Dragon Armor and the Bone Blood Demon had been at the eighth grade when they had been alive, and their hearts hadn’t been destroyed when they had died. That had given them the chance to be revived.

Originally, they would need flame dragons and Bonebrutes that were at the ninth grade or higher to reforge the Bloodline Crystal Chains in their hearts and bring them back to life.

His bloodline was one of a kind. It had the incredible effect of restoring life to the hearts of the Flame Dragon Armor and the Bone Blood Demon.

As for the bone from a Star Behemoth...

The grade of that Star Behemoth had definitely been higher than that of the Flame Dragon Armor or the Bone Blood Demon. It had either been at the ninth grade or the tenth grade.

A drop of Blood Essence alone would allow a tenth grade outsider grand monarch to come back to life, though rigorous conditions had to be met in order for it to happen.

The same might be true of Star Behemoths.

However, unlike Demons, Phantasms, and other outsiders, Star Behemoths were incredibly enormous beings from ancient times. It was unknown what would be able to bring them back to life.

Zhu Yun from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace had said that the Star Behemoth might actually be able to come back to life by relying on that bone alone. However, she had also said that she wouldn’t worry about that, since it would take an astronomical amount of flesh power, among other things, to restore life to it. It was impossible that Nie Tian could make that happen.

The thought of the fact that Star Behemoths would devour realms once they were awakened made Nie Tian realize that the idea of him reviving one with a few drops of his Blood Essence was laughable.

As the three of them continued to fly through the dense forest at a high speed, Nie Tian shrewdly sensed that the Godspirit Tree sapling in his wood power core was quietly channeling wood power from his surroundings.

Furthermore, the way it channeled wood power from its surroundings was not as overbearing as the way the Wood Thriving Formation did it. Its way was much milder.

“Full-grown Godspirit Trees can channel dissociative wood power from the boundless starry river, and use it to nourish the realm it’s in, filling it with life force. As a result, every tree and plant in the realm will grow at a much faster rate. But there’s still a long way to go before this sapling grows into a real Godspirit Tree.

“I’ll have to spend a long time nourishing it with wood power from various sources. But there’s an essential difference between this sapling and those three leaves. Given enough time and nurturing, it will eventually grow into a Godspirit Tree, a Heaven Nourished grade spiritual material.

“Once it’s grown, I’ll be able to refine it into my own domain, vesting it with all sorts of wonders!”

With these thoughts, Nie Tian examined the sapling with rapt attention. He saw that it was quite small and only had a few branches, but hadn’t grown a single leaf.

Only when it grew more branches and leaves would it truly be considered a Godspirit Tree.

At that time, he would be able to rely on it to channel wood power, which normal people wouldn’t even be able to detect, from the depths of the vast starry river.
