Chapter 79: The second stage, all things awaken! The seven world sub-trees are gathered! (Seeking follow-up recommendation votes)
Time passed quietly as Chu Xu raced against time and everything changed with each passing day.

Soon, there were only 100 days left before the asteroid hit the Earth.

Chu Xu is still traveling around the world.

Meanwhile, in the Hell Creek Forest of North America.

As a pioneer, World Subtree No. 1 has reached a height of 200 meters, and its coverage has expanded nearly a hundred times than before, with a radiation diameter of ten thousand miles!
At this point, the evolution of all things has entered the second stage.

The first stage before this is a physical enhancement for the creatures. The strength, agility, and physical attributes continue to increase, breaking the limits of their own race, which is directly manifested as an expansion of body size.

After entering the second stage, spiritual intelligence is awakened, mental attributes are increased, and the brain develops rapidly, allowing creatures to gradually open up to wisdom.

For example, having the ability to think for themselves, knowing how to use and make tools, developing the ability to understand and communicate language, and even truly forming an independent language system, etc., and eventually becoming a truly intelligent life form.

After this there is the final third stage, the evolution of the life levels, when creatures will truly gain extraordinary special abilities.

The early morning light spread across the earth, covering the entire World Tree Forest with a layer of golden gauze.

The little Cretaceous beast that moved from the tree hole to the cave began another day of foraging as usual. Now its body length has reached 2 meters, which is ten times larger than when Chu Xu first saw it. No wonder the narrow tree hole can no longer serve as a shelter.

Moreover, unlike crawling on all fours before, the little Cretaceous beast can now walk upright on its strong hind legs. The dense hair on its body is bluish-white, and the golden horn on its head is growing longer and bigger. Special electronic textures are engraved on its surface, giving it a metallic texture.

"Gulu~~"

Not far after walking out of the cave, the little Cretaceous Beast saw the familiar Dragon Mother and her family.

The Dragon Mother and the others have not woken up yet, and the increasingly huge size of the beast is still a daunting mountain for the little Cretaceous beast.

Especially the Dragon Queen, whose body size has far exceeded the racial limit of Tyrannosaurus Rex. She is 20 meters long, 10 meters high, and weighs more than 50 tons.

The scales on her body have completely turned red, her forelimbs are particularly strong and developed, and her mouth is full of sharp teeth and claws on her limbs are extremely sharp and intimidating.

On the other side, Crescent Moon and Liuxing also grew to 8 meters in length, 4 meters in head height, and their weight soared to 5 tons.

Moreover, the body colors of the sister and brother are one white and one black, which are clearly distinguished and set off each other.

Although they had met Dragon Mother, Crescent Moon, Liuxing and others many times, some of the timid and shy little Cretaceous beasts had never had any dealings with them and subconsciously wanted to take a detour and leave.

"Roar~~"

At this time, the snow-white Crescent Moon woke up. After seeing the little Cretaceous Beast, it immediately ran over quickly and roared at it.

The little Cretaceous Beast thought that Crescent Moon wanted to eat him, but he understood the meaning of closeness conveyed in her roar.

The little Cretaceous Beast didn't know why he could understand what the other party meant.

Xianyue lowered her body, slowly moved her head closer, and sniffed the scent of the little Cretaceous Beast to memorize it.

Because the little Cretaceous beast has been with Chu Xu for a long time, Xianyue, who has a keen sense of smell, can still smell a little residual scent of her elder brother from it.

The little chalk beast learned of Crescent Moon's intention to get close to him and was no longer afraid. It raised its head and sniffed her scent in her direction.

After exchanging their body scents, Crescent Moon stretched out her slender forelimbs and gently stroked the fluffy and soft hair on the little Cretaceous beast. She fell in love with the feeling almost immediately.

"Lu~~"

The little Cretaceous beast, feeling very comfortable being stroked, narrowed its eyes and turned over to reveal its white belly.

This scene seemed particularly peaceful and beautiful, but it was ruthlessly broken in the next second.

"Roar!" It was Liu Xing, dressed in blue and black, who woke up. When he saw the little Cretaceous beast, he rushed up with a roar as if he had seen a delicacy.

The little Cretaceous Beast was startled and tried to escape in a hurry. It also understood the meaning of Liu Xing's roar, which was that he wanted to eat it.

"Snapped!"

Just when Liu Xing was about to pounce on the little Cretaceous Beast, Xianyue made a timely move and knocked the latter to the ground with a headbutt. Then, with his practiced beating, Liu Xing quickly ran away whimpering.

"Roar~~"

After teaching Liu Xing a lesson, Xian Yue turned around and let out a soft roar at the little Cretaceous Beast.

The little cretaceous beast understood that it was Crescent Moon apologizing to him and said that she would protect him.

"Gulu~~"

The little Cretaceous beast also responded happily, and Xianyue could understand what it meant, that it was thanking him.

"Roar~~"

"Gulu~~"

Thus, the dragon and the beast began a magical communication across races, thus opening the prelude to the second stage of the awakening of all things!

……

The cold gray clouds covered the polar night sky even more gloomily, and a downpour came in an instant.

The wind howled, blowing up sand and rocks all over the ground; the lightning and thunder seemed to split the sky in two.

This is Antarctica.

In Antarctica during the Late Cretaceous, there was no ice sheet thousands of meters thick like in later times. Although there were still polar nights lasting up to four months, the climate was very warm and humid. The ecological environment was mainly composed of large tracts of coniferous forests, ginkgo trees, and cycads, which were home to a large number of biological populations.

“There are less than 30 days left.”

Under the polar night, Chu Xu stood quietly in the pouring rain like a towering mountain, letting the heavy and cold rain flow over the dragon's body and wash away the dust.

There is less than a month left until the asteroid hits the Earth!
Whenever Chu Xu silently counted the time for this doomsday catastrophe in his mind, he couldn't help feeling a little scared.

But he had done his best for this.

In the attribute panel, Chu Xu's four-dimensional attribute value has exceeded 50 million. His height has now reached 3 meters, and his overall tonnage has exceeded tons.

Moreover, after Chu Xu had traveled around the world for nearly a year, he found the fourth world subtree from the Saint-Chinion Formation in Europe;

The fifth world subtree was found from the Mefalano Formation in Madagascar, Africa;

The sixth world subtree was found from the Marilia Formation in South America;
Finally, the seventh world subtree was found from the Snow Mountain Island Formation in Antarctica.

At this point, all seven world sub-trees are finally gathered.

Apart from Australia, which is isolated overseas and has few dinosaurs left, Chu Xu has already unified the seven continents!
However, after all seven world sub-trees were gathered, they could not summon any dragon, but instead summoned a piece of a devastating asteroid fragment.
