<h4>Chapter 651: Green Sun</h4>
After emerging from Lorianne’s magic tower, Sein stepped onto the dry, graynd.
Gazing at the greenish hanging in the starry sky nearby, he sighed. “A microne inessible to creatures of Rank Four and above, huh?”
***
The Divine Tower of Verdant Springunched its attack with swift precision.
Three dayster, Lorianne appeared outside the Verdant Leaf World, fully prepared with a verdant green magic rod in her clutch.
Sein recalled seeing it during the Viridian Venom me World War, where his mentor had wielded it against a Neisse Civilization’s Rank Four construct and had used it to cast a forbidden spell.
At this moment, Lorianne in the starry sky obviously had no intention of unleashing a forbidden spell.
Plundering the ne’s riches was better than annihting a world.
Aplex and lengthy incantation flowed from Lorianne’s lips.
Sein could not discern the tone or the words clearly, but he knew Lorianne was not merely reciting; she was rearranging and reorganizing the elemental energy before her in the starry expanse through a special method!
The mages of Magus World were masters of elemental energy maniption. It was only natural for those of Rank Four and above to showcase skill far beyond the reach of ordinary, lower-ranking mages.
Admist Lorianne’s incantation, a green vortex slowly materialized in the starry sky.
Verdant, cone-shaped spikes began to emerge from within the swirling mass.
The rich dendro elemental energies in the vicinity suggested that employing dendro elemental spells now would be extremely effective.
Lorianne hovered in the sky until she directed her magic rod toward Verdant Leaf World.

Today was an unimaginable day for the creatures of Verdant Leaf World, one that would be remembered for years toe.
At some point, a green sun had appeared in the originally blue sky, symbolizing both absurdity and an ominous presence.
Most creatures of Verdant Leaf World, capable of judgment and thought, sensed danger in this anomaly.
This microne had existed peacefully for thousands of years, a haven where nt life and a diverse array of insect creatures had long been free from overt conflict.
Thest time Verdant Leaf World experienced a war that swept across the ne was millennia ago.
During this conflict, the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly n defeated several other insect races, which constituted arge portion of its native inhabitants, and asserted dominance.
After the war, the microne was renamed to Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly World.
However, thisst conflict, known as the “War of nar Unification”, was orchestrated by the guardian and did not bring severe devastation to Verdant Leaf World.
The casualties were few, primarily among the impacted insect ns.
Considering the unity that followed the nar unification, that war was ultimately beneficial for the overall development of Verdant Leaf World.
The generally short lifespans of creatures in the microne caused many to forget the details of that war.
Perhaps some of the longer-lived nt creatures still remembered the great war, but it primarily involved the insect races and had little to do with them, the ancient beings evolved from nts.
The appearance of the green sun immediately instilled a sense of crisis among nearly all of Verdant Leaf World’s native creatures.
Yet, in the face of this imminent threat, confusion prevailed.
Despite feeling the weight of uncertainty and oppression, they were unsure of the green sun’s origin or what action to take.
A few bold insect creatures attempted to ascend into the sky to investigate.
However, due to their low energy levels, most could only reach a few hundred meters, perhaps a thousand at most above the ground.
The more capable among the insect creatures managed to ascend several thousand meters, but even they could not prate the nar barrier, nor could they ascertain whaty beyond their world.
In the Astral Realm, civilization and nar development were typically categorized as micro, low-level, medium-sized,rge-sized, and top-tier.
The strongest bings born in micrones peak at Rank Three, with no entities above Rank Four ssified as “gods”.
The narws and environmental capacity were rtively fragile, unable to support creatures of higher ranks.
Another distinction between micrones and low-level nes was that inhabitants of micronescked a systematic and fundamental understanding of the Astral Realm.
Rarely venturing beyond their homene, they remain unaware of the boundless and magnificent nature of the Astral Realm, believing their limited world to be the entirety of existence.
They held the belief that their world was t and the sky a hemisphere. Only a select few were aware that their ne was spherical.
The micrones that had begun to engage with entities beyond their homene—exploring nearby demines, broken nes, and the asteroid belt in the void—had reached the pinnacle of microne existence and were on the verge of transitioning to the low-level nes.
Such advancements were typically triggered by either a technological civilization that had evolved significantly or the emergence of a Rank Four god within the ne.
Guided by such a god, they slowly gained a clear understanding of the surrounding stars and their civilization’s ce within them, marking the beginning of their civilization’s ascent!
The Magus World was no exception in its early days.
Nearly all of the top-tier civilizations originated from micro or low-level nes.
The appearance of the green sun was a startling phenomenon for the uninformed natives of Verdant Leaf World, leaving them confused and unprepared.
However, the true leaders of Verdant Leaf World likely understood the situation.
Before the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly King could rest, having just returned to the capital city from meeting the guardian, it noticed the green sun in the sky too.
The formidable Rank Three life level enabled the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly King to perceive the enormity and menace of the green sun far more acutely than the uninformed native creatures of Verdant Leaf World.
It was clear that the “sun” was not something its small form could withstand.
From this ominous green sun, the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly King sensed an impending, terrifying crisis that would soon unfold.
Without dy, it gently pushed aside his favored dragonfly consort and spread his wings, flying directly toward the lush mountains to the north of the royal city.
These mountains served as the ancestralnds of the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly n and were considered sacred within the ne.
Here, the rich dendro elemental aura interwove with the lush greeneries.
There were no more than three ces in the entire Verdant Leaf World where elemental concentrations were richer, one being the guardian’s dwelling.
The other two were nestled in the remote forests in the western and northern parts of the ne.
As the ruler, the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly King was privy to certain secrets of this world.
For instance, in each of those remote locations, there thrived an ancient nt as venerable as the Ancient Verdant Banyan.
These nts had observed the ne’s history for tens of thousands of years, standing as living fossils.
Among the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly n, only their two ancestors could rival the strength of those two ancient nts.
