Chapter 36: The Ancient Tree of Life, the Power Of Nature
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Use the power of the Ancient Tree of Life?”
Chris stared at the Ancient Tree of life. Could it really have a magical ability that could help the chimera increase its strength?
“Let’s go to the heritage land of the Ancient Tree of Life.”
The Elven Queen brought Chris and the other two through the tree roots that were like city walls and stopped in front of one of the strange-looking trees.
Chris watched as she placed her hand on the tree and began to chant an incantation.
“Buzz!”
The next moment, green lights appeared around them and gradually gathered in the void in front of them.
With a “Boom”, a deep tree hole appeared.
The hole in the tree was almost like a naturally formed cave in the mountains. One could not see the end of it at a glance. Although it was incredibly vast, it was still insignificant when compared to the Ancient Tree of Life.
As they walked inside, there was a very rich natural aura in the area. There were also many green, blinking lights floating around, just like fireflies in the dark night.
The entire scene was indescribably magical and dreamy.
“Isn’t it beautiful!” The Elven Queen said as she looked at Chris’ astonished expression.
“This is the life energy that the Ancient Tree of Life evolved after tens of millions of years.” Looking at the green light dots floating around her, the elven Queen smiled happily.
“It’s natural power?” Chris’ eyes lit up.
No wonder these green dots of light were so familiar to him.
Chris’ body of nature was meant to absorb the natural elements in the world. From a certain point of view, its origin was the same as the Ancient Tree of life’s power.
“The natural energy is a kind of magical energy nurtured by the Ancient Tree of life. It has many magical uses. One of them is the blessing of life. The target of the blessing can use that life energy to grow quickly.
“This is also the same thing which helped the chimera grow fast.”
The Elven Queen gazed at Chris.
As she spoke, she glanced at the chimera on Chris’ shoulder with a gentle gaze.
“I understand now, Aunt Mien. You want to use this natural energy to help the chimera grow quickly.”
Chris nodded.
“That’s right. Back then, when the Lich King invaded the holy continent, it was also because of this that our elven empire was able to persevere through wave after wave of attacks and block its final blow.
“But unfortunately, the source of life began to dry up because too much of its energy was depleted. As a result, the Pandar tribe and the mountain giants began to leave their homeland.”
From what he learned, Chris knew that when the Ancient Tree of Life was at the peak of its power, the Power Of Nature here was comparable to the fist of an adult elf.
This was also the fundamental reason why the Elf tribe was so powerful back then.
“Everything that’s going on now is like the punishment of the Forest God, it’s blaming us for consuming too much of the Ancient tree of life’s energy. But, it doesn’t matter anymore. The arrival of the chimera has made me firmly believe that the Forest God has not abandoned us elves.”
The Elven Queen patted Chris on the shoulder and said, “Don’t feel inferior because you can’t cultivate. The fact that you can summon the chimera already proves that you are not an ordinary elf.
“Maybe, the revival of our elf race has everything to do with you.”
When the elven Queen said this, Robert nodded in approval.
Chris summoned the chimera from the stone pillar, bringing hope to the elves.
If it weren’t for Chris being unable to cultivate, Robert would have even suggested Chris as the next elven king.
“Alright, let’s begin.” The Elven Queen began to fine-tune the majestic energy in her body and began the prayer for life.
Chris glanced at the chimera on his shoulder. Under his gaze, the chimera leaped up and landed at the place where the natural energy gathered.
Then, the free natural energy quickly entered the chimera’s body. Its body followed the natural energy as it continuously flowed into it. Its body looked like a hot light bulb, emitting powerful energy from within.
Its appearance transformed as well. It was covered in black scales, and its pink little claws began to sharpen, glimmering with a metallic luster.
As time passed, the light on the chimera’s body became even brighter. Its scales were flowing with brilliant colors, flickering with mysterious runes.
The chimera leaped up from midair, and its two little heads spat out two attacks. One was a blazing trail of fire, and the other was a lethal poison, striking the distant mountain wall.
“Bang!”
A loud sound rang out from the mountain wall, and on it was a ten-centimeter-deep hole.
There were also flames coming out of the pit. There was another similar pit to its right.
Puffs of white smoke emerged from the pit, making crackling sounds.
Chris’ eyes lit up. Although it was still not quite as close to the ancient dragon’s power, its strength was not weak. It was equivalent to the strength of a Level 9 high mage. It was able to protect itself now.
Then, the chimera jumped on Chris’shoulder excitedly and chirped, as if it was showing off its strength.
Chris patted its head and smiled. “Little guy, I’m happy that you have such strength.”
As she watched the harmonious interaction between human and beast, the elven Queen walked over with a beautiful smile on her face.
“The Ancient Tree of Life has suffered heavy damage. Using one portion of the Power Of Nature means taking away one portion from the Tree. I can only do so much to help this little guy.”
Chris sensed that the chimera’s strength wasn’t weak. Besides, it was born with dual attributes and its body was covered in hard scales.
With this strength, even a Level 9 high mage would not be a match for the little guy.
“Auntie Mien, I’ve really troubled you this time.”Chris knew that everything that Auntie Mien did was not only for the chimera, but also for him. To everyone else, he was an elf who couldn’t cultivate magic after all.
Auntie Mien most probably wanted to increase the chimera’s strength so that her safety can be guaranteed!
At this moment, something unbelievable happened.
The natural elements that were originally active in the sky seemed to have gone out of control and gathered towards Chris’ body.
In just a short moment, it completely enveloped him and intertwined layer by layer.
It was like the chrysalis of a huge silkworm, shining with a white holy light. Even the Elven Queen was stunned.
Everything that she witnessed was beyond her understanding.
The moment she did not know what to do, Robert who stood behind her shouted, “A miracle! This is a miracle!”
“My guess is right. Chris is indeed the forest god. He is the messenger sent to save us elves. We elves are saved.”
Robert could not stop trembling as he looked at the holy white light in the sky that covered Chris and kneeled on the ground emotionally.
