He took a deep breath, then resolutely stepped into the pool.
In an instant, David felt a powerful force envelop him, and his consciousness began to blur.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a strange environnt.
This was an illusion realm composed of light and shadow, surrounded by a barren desert, with thick black clouds looming in the sky and thunder rumbling.
David felt a suffocating atmosphere rushing towards him, making him feel a little breathless.
"Where is this?" David murmured to himself.
"This is your inner world." A voice sounded in his ear, "Here, you will face your inner fears and doubts."
David looked around and found that a gigantic shadow suddenly appeared in the desert, gradually taking shape into a monstrous beast.
The beast had a ferocious form, with red eyes, emitting deafening roars as it charged at David.
David was startled in his heart, but he quickly cald down.
This beast was rely the embodint of his inner fears; only by overcoming these fears could he continue forward.
He took a deep breath, gathered the strength of his pseudo-divine body within him, and launched an attack on the beast.
However, the beast’s strength was unusually powerful, and David’s attacks seed to have no effect on it.
The beast charged at him ti and again, leaving David in a bitter struggle.
Just as David felt overwheld, he suddenly rembered Liliana’s words: "David, what you possess is a pseudo-divine body. It’s not just a power, but also a manifestation of belief and will. Only when you truly believe in your strength can you unleash its maximum power."
As these words resonated within him, David adjusted his mindset, no longer fearing the beast’s attacks.
He gathered all his strength and launched a fatal strike against the beast.
This ti, his attack seed to penetrate the beast’s defense and hit its vital spot directly.
The beast let out a piercing roar, then collapsed with a loud crash.
As the beast vanished, the illusion realm began to change.
The desert gradually transford into an oasis, the clouds in the sky dispersed, and sunlight bathed the earth.
David felt a refreshing atmosphere rushing towards him, making him feel elated.
"Congratulations, David." The voice sounded again, "You’ve overco your inner fears. However, the trials have not ended. Next, you will confront your inner desires."
As soon as the voice fell, the illusion realm changed again.
This ti, David found himself in a bustling city, surrounded by tall buildings and bustling traffic.
The city was filled with various temptations and desires, making David feel sowhat lost.
At this mont, a beautiful woman appeared before him, wearing exquisite clothes, sweetly smiling and stretching her hand towards David.
David felt a strong attraction, causing him to involuntarily want to approach the woman.
However, just as he was about to extend his hand, he suddenly rembered his goals and mission.
He realized that these temptations were rely the embodint of his inner desires, and only by overcoming them could he remain clear-headed and steadfast.
David took a deep breath, then resolutely refused the woman’s temptation.
He turned and left the city, continuing to move forward.
As David departed, the illusion realm changed again.
The city gradually disappeared, replaced by a tranquil valley.
In the valley, birds sang and flowers blood, full of harmony and peace.
David felt a peaceful atmosphere rushing towards him, purifying his heart.
"Congratulations, David." The voice sounded again, "You’ve overco your inner desires. However, the trials have not ended. Next, you will confront your inner doubts."
As soon as the voice fell, a gigantic maze appeared in the illusion realm.
The paths in the maze were winding and twisting, seemingly without end.
David felt a wave of confusion, not knowing how to find his way out of the maze.
At this mont, an old voice sounded in his ear: "Young man, why have you co?"
David was taken aback, realizing that the Tree of Life was testing him.
After thinking for a mont, he replied, "I ca to seek the ultimate power of life."
"Do you know what the ultimate power of life is?" the voice continued to ask.
David fell silent for a mont, then shook his head.
Indeed, he didn’t know what the ultimate power of life was; he rely instinctively felt it to be a strong and mysterious force.
"The ultimate power of life is not an external force or capability," the voice explained, "It is the inner belief and will. Only when you truly understand the aning and value of life can you unleash the ultimate power of life."
Upon hearing this, David’s heart suddenly beca clear.
He understood the significance of the Tree of Life’s test and also understood how he should face the upcoming challenges.
He took a deep breath, then resolutely stepped into the maze.
In the maze, he faced various hardships and setbacks, but he always maintained firm belief and will.
Finally, he found the exit of the maze and walked out of the illusion realm.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the Tree of Life’s hollow.
That Fruit of Life still floated in the center of the pool, emitting a gentle glow.
"Congratulations, David," Liliana said with a smile, "You have passed the Tree of Life’s test. Now, you can receive the Fruit of Life’s recognition."
Upon hearing this, David felt overwhelming joy and excitent.
He walked to the edge of the pool, gently lifted the Fruit of Life with both hands.
As he pressed the Fruit of Life against his chest, a warm and powerful force instantly surged into his body.
He felt his pseudo-divine body undergoing a marvelous transformation, as if resonating miraculously with the Fruit of Life.
As ti passed, David sensed sothing awakening within him.
It was an indescribable feeling, as if his life force and willpower had been greatly enhanced.
When he opened his eyes again, determination and confidence shone in his gaze.
"I did it!" David exclaid excitedly, "I gained recognition from the Fruit of Life!"
With a smile, Liliana nodded, feeling happy and proud for David.
She knew that David had taken an important step towards realizing the divine body transformation.
After successfully gaining recognition from the Fruit of Life, David felt he had established a deeper and closer connection with the Tree of Life.
He could sense the powerful and warm life energy of the Mother Tree flowing within him, as if infused with endless strength and wisdom.
And Liliana, as the envoy of the Tree of Life, watched David’s transformation with eyes full of comfort and anticipation.
She knew that David not only passed the Mother Tree’s test but also achieved growth and transformation within it.
"David, you have now established a connection with the Tree of Life," Liliana said softly, "Have you felt its power?"
David nodded, indeed feeling the powerful and mysterious force of the Mother Tree.
He felt his body and mind becoming more resilient and stronger under the nourishnt of this force.
"Liliana, you said you are the envoy of the Mother Tree, what does that an?" David asked curiously.
With a slight smile, Liliana explained: "The Tree of Life is the core of the Secret Realm of Life, possessing the power to create life and control life and death. As its envoy, I am responsible for communicating with the Mother Tree, conveying its will and power."
"I see," David realized, "Can you tell more about the Mother Tree and the World Tree projection?"
Liliana nodded, guiding David to the edge of the hollow, pointing to the deep underground, intricate roots: "Look at these roots, they are not just the support of the Tree of Life but also a bridge connecting to another mysterious world— the projection of the World Tree."
