Chapter 30: They All Appeared

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The night sky was filled with darkness. A dark shadow slowly stood up and then quietly retreated, revealing the figure of Ban Feimeng.

“Xiaozao, I’m here again.”

Ban Feimeng, who had been practicing for the whole afternoon, stood in front of the jujube tree by the door of the bookstore with her hands behind her back, smiling. She asked, “You haven’t forgotten me again, have you?”

A face appeared on the bark of the jujube tree. It looked at Ban Feimeng in a daze and said slowly, “I remember.”

“Your owner told me to take care of you in the future. You better be obedient.”

Ban Feimeng touched the bark with a smile and said, “Senior Ye will be happy if you produce jujubes this year. I will also help you to grow.”

“Thank you.” The jujube tree slowly thanked her.

Ban Feimeng smiled and did not respond. Instead, she started to take things out from the magic space she carried with her as she said, “I found a lot of information before. You are the jujube tree that gave birth to sentience. You are a type of magical beast, but you are not a magical beast. You are very special.”

“If you were in a place like the Magical Beast Forest, you definitely wouldn’t have had the chance to be born. You would have been swallowed by those magical beasts. Fortunately, you were enlightened by senior.”

“You are close to nature and are naturally sensitive to wood elements. You will definitely come into contact with the life magic elements in the future. I will build a bridge for you first and let you experience the wood-type magic elements. This way, you will be able to walk the path of the early stages smoothly. The life magic elements will have to wait for the later stages.”

The jujube tree looked at Ban Feimeng in a daze, as she took out something. Very quickly, she built a magic array with strange patterns.

“There are also offerings to communicate with the magic elements.”

Ban Feimeng stood at the edge of the magic array and took out many offerings from her magic space one by one.

The magic nuclei of various magical beasts and special-type magic element items were placed on the jujube tree trunk.

After confirming the offerings, Ban Feimeng explained casually, “I made this for you according to the method recorded in the ancient records. These offerings represent a certain type of magic element. Whichever element comes close to you, you will choose that. The elements in the world will naturally be close to you.”

Among them, the most common elements were the five elements — metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Following that, there were special-type magic elements such as light, darkness, life, death, order, and chaos. This was a special method that belonged to plants and could be called magic plants.

Ban Feimeng explained one by one, and the jujube tree somewhat understood. It then asked uneasily, “Then what if no magic element is willing to come close to me?”

“That won’t happen.”

Ban Feimeng shook her head and said, “You’re not a human. Humans will encounter this kind of situation. You’re a magic plant, so there’s no record of this kind of situation. If it’s any worse, the wood element will definitely get close to you. Moreover, you were enlightened by Senior Ye, so you might be even more special.”

“What if you’re chosen by many magic elements?” The jujube tree asked again.

“That doesn’t matter.” Ban Feimeng smiled and said, “You can choose whichever element you like. It’s your freedom.”

The jujube tree thought for a moment and asked in puzzlement, “Is there any difference between magic elements?”

“There is a difference, but I can’t say which one is good and which one is bad.”

Ban Feimeng wrapped her arms around it, and she explained carefully, “For example, if you choose wood element, you can cultivate faster in the early stage and achieve higher achievements. But if you encounter special magic elements such as light or death of the same level, you can’t beat them.”

“If you choose these special magic elements, such as light and death in the early stages, it will be difficult to cultivate. You might not be able to achieve much in your lifetime. You might as well choose the more ordinary magic elements. At least you will have a chance to extend your life. The ordinary path to the end is not worse than the other paths.”

“The wood element’s magister is an advanced mage who can suppress the light element.”

“Okay.” The jujube tree nodded slowly.

Ban Feimeng hesitated for a moment, then said, “But if there are special magic elements, it’s better to choose special elements. It’s best that you choose the life element, which is very suitable for you.”

“Unfortunately, the life and death elements are the most mysterious. In the past tens of thousands of years, there are only a few recorded, so it’s very difficult to meet them.”

“I got it.” The jujube tree said with some anticipation, “Can we begin?”

Ban Feimeng nodded and came to the edge of the magic array. She took out her magic staff and began to brew magic.

Not long after, the patterns of the magic array lit up. The auras of various magic elements appeared and stopped in front of the jujube tree. There was only a wisp of each aura, and it would dissipate at any time.

As the magic array operated, they stabilized.

No one knew how many of these magic elements would try to get close to the jujube tree.

Soon, the magic elements that originally had only one wisp of aura began to grow on their own, leaning towards the jujube tree. Each magic element was emitting its own charm.

Among the four leading elements, one was emitting death magic elements, one was emitting life magic elements, one was emitting chaos magic elements, and the other was emitting order magic elements.

With these four as the leader, many magic elements appeared behind them, and none of them were missing.

“How… how is this possible…”

Ban Feimeng looked at the scene in front of her in a daze and muttered, “It has an affinity with all the magic elements?”

The night was dark, and the moon was hanging high in the sky.

Under the moonlight, Ban Feimeng looked at the magic element auras floating in the air in great shock, it was unbelievable.

It was fine if it was the life magic element. After all, the jujube tree was a plant, it was close to nature, and had the addition of wood element. It was able to attract it and that was still acceptable.

However, it was difficult to understand why the three magic elements — death, chaos, and order — were all compatible.

Generally speaking, every living being had a certain trait. This trait would attract the corresponding magic element, which would allow them to set foot on the path of a mage. The purpose of building a magic array was to communicate with heaven and earth, to see which one was suitable.

If the trait was too weak and couldn’t attract magic elements, one could only become an ordinary person.

What could be attracted was also the element corresponding to one’s own trait.

How could a living being be born omnipotent?

Many of the magic elements were natural opposites. Ordinary living beings couldn’t possess them, and non-ordinary living beings would have died long ago.

Ban Feimeng originally thought that even if it was a magic plant that Senior Ye had enlightened, it would be good enough to be able to get close to the life magic element. Unexpectedly, it was favored by all the magic elements.

Wasn’t this equivalent to the children of the world?

Ban Feimeng couldn’t understand it no matter how hard she tried.

She searched through all kinds of illusory legends in ancient times, but there was no mention of such a situation.

The appearance of the nine main magic elements didn’t seem to be close to the jujube tree. They were only getting closer to the tree because of the tree itself.

Hmm?

At the thought of this, an unbelievable thought flashed through Ban Feimeng’s mind. She slowly turned her head to look at the door of the bookstore, and her heart began to beat faster. She couldn’t help but guess.

Could it be that Senior Ye could already influence the entire world? The reason these magic elements were so close to the jujube tree had nothing to do with its innate talent.

Was it because it had Senior Ye’s aura on it?

Senior Ye usually didn’t reveal his aura and lived like an ordinary person, but the jujube tree was different. It wouldn’t restrain itself.

Other than this guess, Ban Feimeng couldn’t think of a more reasonable explanation.

At this moment, she felt as if she had discovered a shocking secret.

If Senior Ye was able to influence the magic elements in the human world, so why was he still willing to stay in the human world? Did he have other motives? Was the ancient legend true? Did he want to raise the status of the human world to the same level as the Divine Realm?

At the thought of this, Ban Feimeng could feel her heart beating wildly. Her face flushed red, and her body trembled slightly.

This feeling was as if she had discovered a secret that was hidden through time. She had met the person who had created a legend. They were determined to let the human world stand shoulder to shoulder with the Divine Realm. This was such a great idea, and they had even gone to take action.

It was absurd, dreamy, and inconceivable!

“Although I know that Senior Ye was very powerful, I didn’t expect him to be this powerful. I… I even let him give me pointers, buy ink wash paintings, and chat at close range. His hand even patted my shoulder.”

When Ban Feimeng recalled those events, she felt her scalp go numb and her mind went blank.

She was just a little mage in the human world. According to the normal trajectory, it would be very difficult for her to become an advanced mage.

She actually got to know a great existence that could influence the world.

After realizing her identity, she couldn’t help but feel that her status and level seemed to have a metamorphosis the moment she got to know Senior Ye!
