Chapter 496 496 The World Tree, Star River Falls
Dick felt that he had entered an extremely magical state. His soul seemed to be rippling in the endless ocean of stars, and the light and darkness changed, which also made his soul power grow rapidly.
After a short break, Dick slowly opened his eyes.
His soul power had now reached the late stage of virtual god level, which was only one step away from true god level.
After absorbing the pills from flower elves, Dick's combat power had reached the early stage of virtual god level. With his divine blood talent, Dick's current combat power was comparable to that of a warrior at the middle stage of the virtual god level.
"Your rest time has been used up. You are about to be transferred to the tenth test site. Please get ready."
The voice of Starry Temple slowly rang in Dick's ears. Then, Dick's body turned into a light shadow, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in an azure world.
Dick looked at the world in front of him in surprise. Beneath his feet was the boundless lake. Every step he took would cause ripples.
In the center of the mirror lake was a purple island, on which grew a seemingly weak seedling.
To Dick's surprise, although the seedling looked very thin and seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind, it contained an enormous amount of life energy.
The quality of this seedling was not inferior to that of the ancient life tree, and it was only a seedling. If this seedling grew up, it was likely to revive the dead bones in an instant.
When Dick looked at the magical beast under the tree, he was stunned.
The person sitting cross-legged was not a magical beast, but a weak human!
When Dick opened the Eyes of God and tried to pry into the background of this human, he saw nothing! His Eyes of God didn't work at all. He couldn't see through the level of the person in front of him.
"You are here. I've been waiting here for tens of millions of years. Since the establishment of Starry Temple, no one has been able to enter this space. I've been waiting for this day for too long."

The man opened his eyes and looked at Dick.
He stood up and a white sword appeared beside him, emitting a cold light like snow.
"No doubt. Although I appeared as a human, I am indeed a magical beast. You don't have to use your skill to investigate again because you can't see through me."
Dick was shocked. He didn't expect that the magical beast could find out that he was spying on him with the Eyes of God.
"But since you are the first person to come here, I can tell you some information. My strength has reached the late stage of the virtual god level. Before you die, you can remember my name—Star River Giant."
The Star River Giant said indifferently.
Dick felt his body trembling. The strength of the magical beast had reached the late stage of the virtual god level, which was two levels beyond him!
However, since Dick had already come this far, he didn't want to retreat. Although his opponent was extremely powerful, his soul level had reached the peak of the late stage of the virtual god level. It was not that he didn't have the strength to fight.
Star River Giant looked at Dick expectantly.
It had been waiting here for a long time. Since Starry Temple was established and it guarded here, it was the first contestant to enter there.
The seedling behind it was called the world tree, which was a plant magical beast at the middle stage of the divine level. When it matured, it could evolve to the late stage of the divine level.
The world tree was a special magical beast condensed by the souls of all living creatures after a planet was destroyed. There was only a 1/1000 chance of it being born.
Becoming the owner of the world tree and nurturing it to be mature, its owner would be able to obtain the power of the world within the world tree, making it easier to advance to the true god level.
It was for this reason that the Star River Giant had always carried the world tree with it and made it consider itself master.
As soon as the Star River Giant entered Starry Temple, it signed the contract with Starry Temple. Every time it successfully stopped a contestant from passing the test, Starry Temple would give it a drop of divine-level inferior object—blessed dew.
This drop of blessed dew could increase the world tree's growth by tens of millions of times.
The Star River Giant had been waiting here for tens of millions of years before finally waiting for the first person to be able to reach this round. Naturally, it was extremely excited.
If it could defeat Dick in 10 seconds, its reward would double and it would get two drops of blessed dew, which would double the growth speed of the world tree.
Therefore, it was burning with a fighting spirit and swore to take Dick down in 10 seconds.
"The tenth round of the starry sky test is about to begin. Five, four, three, two, one. The test begins."
With the prompt of Starry Temple, the light shield between Dick and the giant disappeared.
In an instant, the giant's body crossed space and appeared beside Dick. The thin sword in his hand brandished a series of blurry shadows, enveloping Dick in them.
Dick's body became illusory when the Star River Giant disappeared. The dark incarnation enabled him to dodge the attack of the Star River Giant safely. At the same time, the fire fairy sword waved a brilliant light and cut toward the head of the Star River Giant.
The Star River Giant was slightly stunned. It didn't expect that Dick would be able to dodge its blow and even have the strength to counterattack.
With a cold snort, the Star River Giant opened its mouth, and the terrifying suction burst out. Dick's body flew uncontrollably toward the Star River Giant's mouth and fell into it.
The entire body of the Star River Giant emitted an illusory light. This was its innate ability: devouring and refining. It could directly swallow the enemy and refine him with the help of its talent.
But just as it was about to refine Dick, a power of space flashed and Dick appeared in front of it again.
"The space talent? I underestimated you. However, no matter how many talents you have, the result will be the same. Perish in the turbulent ocean of stars! Star river, fall!"
The Star River Giant roared. It stretched out its arms, and brilliant white light erupted from its body, piercing through the sky and breaking through the star river!
Then, the Star River Giant waved its hand down fiercely, as if the entire sky was dragged down by it in an instant. Countless colorful stars fell from the sky. The terrifying pressure caused the entire mirror lake to shatter inch by inch, and Dick's body also fell along with the broken mirror lake.
