Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 223 The Submitting Elf

Ronan returned to the Wizard's Tower to devote himself to cultivating the Scripture of Immortality of All Trees.

Wizards, knights, and mortals from multiple provinces are receiving blessings from their natal longevity tree.

The sacred trees of these provinces, which are the natal trees of immortality, radiate the light of holy trees, giving strength to everyone, and are growing faster than ever before.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refined through the saplings of his natal longevity tree, entered Ronan's dantian.

Now, his golden core is becoming more and more solid, and the nascent soul between his eyebrows is gradually taking shape.

All the trees that symbolize longevity have a combined age of over six thousand years.

It's already more than halfway to the 10,000-year-old "Eternal Green" standard.

……

To the west of the Dawn Continent, an island cleaves through the waves.

But then another wave of elves arrived.

Among these elves, the most powerful was a priest of the rank of a supreme wizard.

Like Gurim, he is one of the four priests under the High Priest of the Elf Kingdom.

The priests of Zul, with thousands of elves, reached the shore.

They came here to retrieve the Book of Elves.

However, they also knew how powerful Grimm was, as well as the power of Grimm's magical artifacts, such as the Twelve Arias.

Therefore, their purpose in coming here is not necessarily to retrieve the Book of Elves.

Once they have a clear understanding of the situation in Grim and the Kingdom of Valant, they can return.

When the time comes, the three priests will come together with the high priest.

They captured the traitor Grimm and brought him back to the Elven Kingdom for interrogation under the Elven Tree.

Before they arrived, they were baptized by the light of the Elven Tree.

Both my strength and magic are more than before.

As soon as they landed, they were immediately trapped in a defensive magic formation.

This is a lightning-based defensive magic formation.

As soon as the elves stepped into the magic array, lightning erupted in the air and struck them.

However, the elves were clearly not afraid of this level of magical formation.

They either waved their staffs or turned their rings.

Soon, a protective shield, resembling a light blue gemstone, enveloped them.

No matter how much lightning struck, the protective shield remained unmoved.

Seeing this, the elves felt much relieved.

This magical formation is even inferior to the defensive formation of their elven kingdom's city walls.

This shows that this kingdom's level of knowledge about energy particles is still somewhat inferior to theirs.

The wizards guarding the border are in the distance, within the magical array.

After the first invasion by the elves, the kingdom's wizards all knew how powerful the elves were.

Therefore, they were confident of victory, which is why they engaged in battle with the elves.

At other times, it involves activating spell arrays or casting spells remotely to consume spirits.

Some of the wizards guarding the border were casting spells from a distance within the spell array.

Their witchcraft all requires creation magic or summoning magic.

Under these spells, one after another, magical beasts and elemental giants appeared.

They appeared before them.

Another group of wizards, upon arriving in various places, dispersed the people living there.

Originally, in the kingdom, wizards considered themselves superior to commoners.

Wizards can kill civilians at will and do whatever they want with them.

However, Ronan issued an order to the Wizarding Council that any wizards who indiscriminately kill civilians should be severely punished.

Moreover, civilians should be provided with assistance when they are affected by disasters.

Dolifa gave the order, and the Wizarding Council naturally dared not disobey.

Protected by the defensive shield, the elves quickly passed through the wizard's formation.

The priest of Zul was a long-bearded elf who looked very old.

Compared to the delicate features of other elves, this Zul priest had many wrinkles on his face, and his ears were longer and sharper than those of other elves, with golden-white hair sticking out from them.

As soon as he stepped out of the magic formation, he immediately discovered its flaw.

He sneered, brandished his blue crystal staff, and pointed it at the magic array, instantly destroying one of the arrays.

Then, he tapped it again with his staff.

One after another, deep blue orbs of light were released and collided with the magic array. Ripples were generated in the air, and the magic array was destroyed and rendered ineffective.

The elf then continued forward.

They knew about the prophecy in the Book of Elves.

However, they have different interpretations of that prophecy.

Moreover, Grimm led his faction of elves to the Kingdom of Valant without their consent.

After all, the Kingdom of Valant had existed for hundreds of years, and they knew about it.

Therefore, knowing the distribution of provinces in the Kingdom of Valant, they followed Gurim's understanding and headed towards Triumph City.

After passing through the magic formation, these elves encountered various magical beasts, as well as an elemental giant.

Among the monsters were earth dragons, rock lizards, and many others, densely packed together, summoned and controlled by wizards from a certain monster forest, surging towards the elves.

In addition, there were enormous, deep blue water element giants, crackling lightning element giants, and surging fire element giants... all crowding towards the elves.

The elves began to unleash their magic to fight the enemy.

They brandished their staffs, unleashing orbs of magical energy of various colors as they charged towards the monsters and elemental giants.

The elven priest Zul raised his staff.

Suddenly, a dazzling light shone from the tip of the staff.

The dazzling light suddenly extended, transforming into a lightsaber about thirty meters long.

Then, Zul swept his staff across the room.

The lightsaber then slashed horizontally towards the monsters and elemental giants.

When the monster encountered the lightsaber, it was immediately cut in two.

Internal organs and blood were spilled all over the ground.

Some magical beasts are very resilient; even though they are cut in two, they still have the ability to fight.

Its two halves darted about on the ground, rushing towards the elves.

But since they were about to die, these magical beasts had limited combat power.

The other elves unleashed their magic, bombarding the monsters relentlessly until they were quickly blasted to death.

The elemental giants vanished the moment they touched the blade of the lightsaber.

In an instant, the surrounding area was filled with flashes of magical light from various elves, and dust filled the air.

The number of monsters and elemental giants is constantly decreasing.

However, the wizards who were still retreating were unaware of this.

What they had to do was simply hold off and wear down these elves while waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Killing elves is not their mission.

The wizards gradually retreated, while the elves gradually advanced.

Just as the elves were breaking through the wizards' traps, they suddenly saw a tall tree in front of them.

The tree emitted a golden, holy light, reminding them of the Elven Tree.

However, this tree is not as tall as the Silmaril, and its branches and leaves are somewhat different from those of the Silmaril.

However, they were quite surprised to see something similar to the Elf Tree outside the Elf Kingdom.

Moreover, the golden light emanating from the tree did indeed give them a sense of increased power.

"How is this going?"

These elves expressed their surprise and amazement.

"Is this an illusion?"

An elf asked a question.

This question immediately alerted the other elves.

However, some elves attempted to recite the blessing spell.

Then, some knowledge surfaced in their minds.

This is information about the routes and terrain of the Kingdom of Valant. "The Blessing Spell worked!"

"A spirit called out."

At this moment, after his initial surprise, Zul's expression turned serious.

He also tended to believe that this tree, which was so similar to the elven tree, was an illusion created for them by the dark wizards of the Kingdom of Valant.

So he waved his staff and began chanting a spell.

A breeze arose, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered.

This is a spell in elven magic to dispel illusions.

As the wind blew in gusts, six-pointed star-shaped elven magic circles immediately appeared on the trees.

The magic circle emitted a blue glow and rotated on the tree.

The other elves, knowing the function of the magic circle, held their breath and waited to see if it would take effect.

After a while, the magic circle disappeared, but the tree remained.

This proves that the tree is not an illusion.

'Could the prophecy be true? Is there really hope in the Kingdom of Valant that the elves can regain their former glory?'

As Zul pondered, the expression in his eyes shifted repeatedly.

"go back!"

Zul suddenly shouted.

He had to tell the high priest about the situation here.

The other elves, upon hearing Zul's command, retreated.

In the Wizard Tower of Triumph City, Ronan perceived all of this through the shared divine consciousness of his natal Tree of Immortality.

He sensed this was an opportunity.

The Elven Tree outside the Elven Kingdom did indeed have a great impact on the elves.

Perhaps he could use this to make the elves believe in the prophecies in the Book of Elves, and thus submit to him.

With this in mind, Ronan immediately calmed his mind.

Use the natal tree of immortality in the Northwest Province to send a message to Gurim.

Let him go and stay on the west coast of the Dawn Continent first.

They brought the high priest of the elves with them and explained the prophecy to him.

Furthermore, he introduced himself, a messenger of the elven god, to the high priest of the elves.

……

The priest Zul, leading thousands of elves, returned to the elven kingdom.

Upon arriving at the capital of the Elf Kingdom, they entered the roots of the Elf Tree, which had formed wooden city walls.

Although the city wall is made of wood, it is extremely sturdy.

Furthermore, it possesses numerous elven magic spells, capable of repelling enemy attacks.

The priest of Zul, seeing the thick wooden city walls, waved his staff forward.

Suddenly, a green light appeared on the wooden city wall.

Then, the green light spread, and the branches and roots that formed the wooden city wall immediately split to the left and right.

The wizard procession then filed in.

……

In the center of the royal city is a giant flower bud.

The flower buds are immersed in the spring water, and there is a magical flow on them.

The priest of Zul, upon reaching the flower bud, immediately said respectfully:
"High Priest, we have discovered a tree in the Kingdom of Valant that closely resembles the Spirit Tree."

"what?"

A soft sound came from inside the flower bud.

Then, the figure of an old elven wizard appeared at the flower bud.

The next moment, the figure solidified and appeared in front of Priest Zul and the others.

This is the High Priest of the Elves, Randall Blom.

The priest Zul then recounted to Randall in detail what he had seen in the Kingdom of Valant.

Randall narrowed his eyes upon hearing this.

Without realizing it, he took out a pipe made of refined gold from his storage artifact and put some tobacco made of noble magical plants inside.

The tobacco ignited spontaneously without a flame, and he puffed on his cigarette as he pondered this.

The Zul priests are waiting for Randall.

A while later, the tobacco in the pipe burned out.

Randall still couldn't figure it out.

"You go back first, I'll go back and check the books left by the elves."

As he spoke, he smoked a cigarette, his body rising up and then merging into the flower bud.

……

On this day, news of something similar to the Elf Tree spread in the Kingdom of Valant, albeit in a small circle.

An elf left the elf kingdom and wandered into a forest.

After walking for several hours, they arrived at a giant tree.

This giant tree has a dark, hollow trunk.

The elf recited a spell towards the tree hole.

Then, the darkness inside the tree hole began to swirl.

The elf was thus sucked into the tree hole.

The elf, pulled along by a mysterious force, fell diagonally in one direction, along with the darkness.

A short while later, his feet touched the ground.

Before us lies a vast city.

An underground city, with thick rock above it.

However, the rock was engraved with elven runes, emitting a faint glow.

Within the city, there were elves with dark purple skin, moving back and forth.

This is Menzoberranzan, the settlement of the Dark Elves.

Although this elf still appears as a light elf, it already harbors the desire to become a dark elf, and has come here at the call of the dark elves.

Menzoberranzan is a vast city, stretching for thousands of miles.

However, he could still see a wizard's tower in the far distance.

So he used elven magic and rushed towards the wizard's tower.

……

Upon entering the wizard's tower, the elf was summoned and placed before a person with pale skin.

This person is Sophie, the bloodline sorcerer who was previously killed by Dolifa in one body but was reborn in another.

Before his rebirth, he was the Grand Tutor of the Orc Empire.

However, the Orcish Empire was controlled by the Valant Empire, and he could no longer utilize the Orcish Empire.

So they turned their attention to the elves.

He had once served the Light Elves.

However, his bloody experiments disgusted the fastidious spirits of light, and he was eventually driven away by them.

Then they arrived at the Dark Elf's location.

Dark elves are cruel and bloodthirsty.

The Dark Elf lord was very interested in his bloodline magic.

Some dark elves are also quite willing to accept bloodline modification.

During this period, he produced many crazy, bloodthirsty, and powerful warriors for the Dark Elf City.

The messenger came to Sophie and told him about the Kingdom of Valant.

Sophie's eyes widened upon hearing this.

The Elemental Tree is magical; he had long wished to use bloodline magic to replicate its properties on other magical plants.

However, after several attempts, it failed.

Unexpectedly, this witchcraft has now been developed by "Dollyfa".
