Lord of the Truth



"I had previously said that the number of human tribes had exceeded two hundred near the beginning of the Energy Cultivation Era, after which the number dropped to about sixty after the discovery of the Blue Flame Secondary Law due to our acquisition of more grounds and the merger between the tripes, but after the alliance of the Seven Tree Fathers… Sigh~ the number of human tribes that we know of is 15 tribes, and those tribes control 5% of the world's land mass." Fugon nodded several times in a bad mood, "We 15 tribes have not seen each other for tens of thousands of years and maybe more, For example, we of the Northern Fury tribe, can communicate with two other tribes using war bees, and they can communicate with us using a similar one, and those two tribes can communicate with a fourth tribe, and so on~ This is how we know that we are currently 15 tribes… As for the 16th tribe, it was destroyed just a few years ago."

"15 scattered tribes and each one surrounded on all sides by the domination circles of the tree fathers... The fact that you guys still maintain 5% of the planet's surface is an achievement in itself." Robin tapped his thigh as he spoke slowlyThe sourc𝗲 of this content nov(𝒆l)bi((n))

"Well, we are not 15 tribes anymore, we are back to 16 again, you are with us now! Hahaha" Fugon laughed out loud, Then he stopped and looked at Robin with a little wonder and asked, "By the way, where exactly have you guys been all those years, why haven't we heard about you? And what is the name of that Tree Father who used poison on you? We should know them all... Is it a New Tree Father or is he one of the known seven Tree Fathers and it discovered a new way of attacking?"

"…The Tree Fathers can change the laws in their domination circle, the energy level in that area is much lower than normal, and they have special abilities that are as powerful as nature's wrath itself… Why and how do they have such abilities? Why would they seek control in the first place? They don't have offspring or relatives to inherit that land, what is their last quest?" Robin tapped his thigh and muttered in a low voice, he choose to ignore Fugon's questions

Then, he quickly asked, "What about the level of energy and structure of laws within the lands controlled by the human tribes now, are they different from outside?"

Fugon knotted his eyebrows for a second, but he choose not to press Robin for it for now, and answered, "…Yes and No. In the days when the ancient Trents fought among themselves, there was still a huge gap in the laws between each domination circle, and the lands of the humans were still cohesive, retaining their natural energy and the normal percentage of the heavenly laws, so that there were many living Trents among us in our lands, whether they were fleeing refugees or young Treants born within our lands, we had a lot of them." 

Fugon's countenance turned serious again, "But after the Seven Tree Fathers allied themselves and took control of approximately 95% of the planet, the effect of what they were doing began to spread to our lands, and even our energy level decreased, it's still better of than the atmosphere in an actual domination circle but it is clear that the laws in our lands have changed to an extent that no new Treants are born in our borders as well and those who lived with us previously died one after the other, the laws of the world simply no longer support their existence as before."

"…That is reasonable, in the beginning, every ancient treant creature was trying to change the laws from their point of view within their domination circle, and this led to clashes between all those domination circles, but after the alliance of the Seven Tree Fathers they might have started to change certain laws systematically, and Changing it in 95% of the world will definitely affect the rest… hmm, changing the laws didn't hurt the local humans in any way, right?" Robin waited a few seconds and then asked

Ellis shook her head and replied, "…No, users of some laws felt a little weak, but users of other laws became stronger, so it can be said that nothing has changed overall."

"Huh~ Then the only ones affected by the changed percentage of the laws are the Treants who went extinct, why would they want to exterminate the rest of their own kind? Before the Energy Cultivation Era there was no obvious enmity between the Treants, why would they suddenly want to exterminate each other?" Robin murmured again in a low voice, "...You said that after the first ancient Trent appeared and began to expand, so many other Ancient Treants began to do the same, it is impossible for them to tell each other whatever information they had as they were trying to kill each other! perhaps that piece of information is something that comes easy to the race of Trents after they reach a certain level of strength? ...Is that why they want to eliminate the rest of their kind? So that the information remains exclusive to the least possible number among them? Whatever this information is, it is definitely related to a way to change the heavenly laws of the planet..."

Then, after a few taps on his thigh, he added, "If this is the reason behind the changed percentage of the heavenly laws, then the reason why the energy level is lower is even easier, changing the laws of a planet and maintaining them for hundreds of thousands of years is definitely not an easy thing, expending a huge amount of energy for this is understandable, this Regardless of the amount of energy that each tree father swallows in making his army, like the tree father Hoffenheim who collects energy and pumps it into his army of buds... If we adopt these two interpretations, there is nothing left but to explain the source of those *special abilities* like thunderbolts that strike every flying thing or the lack of air for a few minutes, these are natural phenomena that a person even at the level of an emperor cannot implement, does this have to do with changing the laws as well? What do these creatures want from changing the planet to such a degree? And most importantly, who taught them how to tamper with the laws of the world? Is this a Treant thing, or can we humans do it too if we know how?!"

Fugon and Ellis looked at each other out of the corner of their eye without saying a word, but some drops of sweat started to seep from their heads visibly, then they turned back to look at Robin with a look of shock, even some fear...

The existential questions that have baffled all human tribes for hundreds of thousands of years were now being answered before their eyes!

And who is answering them in someone whom they have never seen before, someone who didn't even know what a Trent is a few minutes ago.
