Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 235 Mid-Nascent Soul Stage, Changes in the Cultivation World
After settling the elves, Ronan continued his cultivation.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth, with his breathing, converged towards the wizard's tower like the wind.

Part of it was transformed into his magical power, while the other part entered the spiritual realm, continuously constructing it.

In the Spirit Realm, the life-giving trees that have been part of the kingdom's destiny are also gradually increasing in age.

As the training continued, the Wizard Tower's resources were being consumed more and more.

Soon, the resources people were offering as tribute could no longer keep up with his consumption.

Ronan pondered this as he devoured rare and precious medicinal herbs.

The continent where the Elf Kingdom is located should also have abundant resources.

Now, the Dark Elves occupy it.

Through his natal tree of immortality, he learned that many light elves wanted to return to the continent where the elven kingdom was located and drive away the dark elves who had occupied their original home.

Ronan immediately granted their wish.

As the elves prayed for blessings from their natal Fiery Tree, Ronan transmitted messages into their minds.

Let them return to their original continent and destroy the dark elves that corrupt that continent.

They also brought some of the good resources from the original mainland back to the Dawn Continent.

Once this information reached the Elven race, they responded.

Not long after, the elven high priest Gerjo, along with two priests, led an army of four thousand elves back to the continent where they had lived before.

Before they went, Ronan had already blessed them and, based on their elven magic, specifically instilled some witchcraft knowledge into their minds.

Originally, although the elves were defeated by the wizards, they only thought it was because the wizards outnumbered them.

For thousands of years, they have been immersed in their own elven magic.

Ronan imparted wizarding knowledge to them without telling them that it came from a wizarding research institute.

The elves had no doubts.

They simply believed it was a gift from God.

With the knowledge of wizards as a reference, the level of spellcasting among the elves improved.

The elven high priest Gjo led his large and imposing party on a grand journey.

Soon, Ronan lost sight of the elf team.

After all, they no longer have their own natal tree of immortality by their side.

As for the outcome of this battle, Ronan was not particularly worried.

Because he discovered that what the Spirit Tree could do—absorb souls—his own Tree of Immortality could also do.

Since he planted his own immortality trees in various places, his number of believers has been increasing.

During this period, some believers have also died.

He discovered that after a believer dies, their soul lingers in the sapling of their natal tree of immortality.

Moreover, he is able to obtain immortality through his natal tree.

The lingering soul is placed into the fertilized egg produced by the union of a man and a woman.

Once a soul is formed, the person created from the fertilized egg possesses the qualities of the soul's former owner.

If the elven high priest Gjor dies, his soul will always return to his natal tree of immortality.

He possesses the wizarding knowledge left behind by the bloodline of the great wizard Sophie.

A physical body can be created using energy particles and matter.

If the high priest of the elves dies, and the elves, whose reproductive ability is weak, have no offspring.

Then, he could put the soul of the elven high priest into the body, allowing him to be reborn.

Thinking about this, Ronan began to wonder about the true nature of the Silmaril.

This tree is truly amazing.

The ability to retain a soul and to bring it back to life is indeed the power of "God".

Perhaps the wizards of the Wizarding Islands took this tree away to study this ability.

……

Before we knew it, a year had passed.

Good news kept arriving from the other side.

High Priest Gorjo of the Elves has a clear understanding of the elves under his command.

He led an army of four thousand elves there, believing that his army should be able to fight against the dark elves.

After the dark elves conquered the elven continent, they began to repair the city walls and set up various magical formations.

The fighting style of dark elves is more like that of body-refining wizards.

Their wizarding formations are no match for those of the light elves like Gjor.

Having received Ronan's blessing of wizarding knowledge, Gerjord gained a new understanding of magical formations.

After he led his army there, he quickly found the weaknesses in each of the sorcery formations.

They marched forward, breaking through enemy lines as they went.

Soon, they clashed head-on with the dark elves.

Originally, the continent was the place where these spirits of light lived.

For many years, the dark elves have been confined to living in gloomy dungeons.

Therefore, they were more familiar with the continent than the dark elves.

Therefore, during the battle, the Light Elves constantly adjusted their strategies and gradually gained the upper hand.

The dark elves could only retreat step by step.

However, the dark elves are also reaping the resources of the continent.

After harvesting the resources, they brought them back to the dungeon.

The Light Elves, led by Gerjol, could only drive out the Dark Elves, but they could not seize any resources from them.

Gerjoh then realized that this was destined to be a protracted battle.

However, the resources he obtained from the Elf Continent were brought back to the Dawn Continent by Elf Wizards using Elf magic.

According to the blessing and revelation of the "God of Elves", the obtained resources should be wrapped in an energy particle shield and sunk into the lake where the elves gather.

……

Every now and then, Ronan would return to the elven settlement to collect the resources.

He used the Wood Immortal Escape technique to reach the bottom of the lake, where he released the power of the Wood Immortal Escape technique and covered the lake.

Then, he left with the resources.

The magical plants and other items of the Elf Kingdom are not commonly found on the Dawn Continent.

However, Ronan had indeed read the Book of Elves.

The Book of Elves contains some information about the magical plants and beasts of the kingdom where the Elf Kingdom is located.

Therefore, he knew what each resource was used for.

……

In the days that followed, Ronan consumed resources while cultivating the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the world of cultivation, once a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul stage, their progress in cultivation becomes extremely slow.

A single advancement in a minor realm can take anywhere from a few hundred years to over a thousand years.

However, Ronan is the Dharma Body of Wood, and this Dharma Body of Wood is already close to the Eternal Green Body.

His speed in absorbing and refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was much faster than that of other cultivators of the same level.

His physical cultivation method also enabled him to digest and absorb magical plant and magical beast materials at an astonishing speed.

Most importantly, he has a large amount of resources to consume.

Ancient cultivators' cultivation methods were basically based on consuming resources to improve their cultivation level.

Unlike the cultivation methods of modern cultivators, which, due to the lack of resources, always focus on developing one's own potential, exploring one's own secrets, and refining inner elixirs, etc.

Ancient cultivators' techniques, given sufficient resources, can elevate one's cultivation level.

Therefore, Ronan's cultivation progressed very quickly.

His body was like a bottomless pit.

Resources were continuously poured into his body, transforming into strength.

During his cultivation, he also encountered the inner demons that cultivators face when cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage. He discovered that these inner demons originated from a place resembling a nightmare world.

The cultivation world contains a nightmare world.

When he cultivates in the wizarding world, the appearance of inner demons opens a portal to the nightmare world.

Immediately afterwards, shadowy, intangible demons emerged from the nightmare world, using his mind as a conduit to invade his spiritual realm.

However, he possessed extremely strong mental power and had also conducted some research on the nightmare world.

As soon as these inner demons appeared, he immediately dispersed them with his mental power.

In the Nascent Soul Realm, besides the tribulation of inner demons, there is also the tribulation of lightning.

This is recorded in the "Scripture of the Longevity of Ten Thousand Trees" and some other books.

Once you are about to reach the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, you will face a tribulation of lightning.

It is said that this is the will of Heaven, a way to eliminate those who defy Heaven, such as cultivators.

The "Scripture of the Longevity of Ten Thousand Trees" and other books contain various methods for dealing with lightning tribulations.

The "Scripture of the Longevity of Ten Thousand Trees" records a magical technique called "Withered Tree Skill".

At the moment the tribulation of lightning was about to strike, he turned his flesh and skin into withered wood.

It can, to some extent, withstand the damage caused by the lightning tribulation.

Of course, these methods are all supplementary.

To survive the tribulation of lightning, a cultivator still needs a strong foundation, relying on their magical power and physical strength to endure the tribulation.

On this day, Ronan was cultivating the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture and felt that he was about to reach the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, so he waited for the tribulation to arrive.

However, as his magical power gradually increased and his nascent soul solidified, the Wizard Tower remained sunny and calm, without a single thundercloud.

'Is the tribulation lightning only coming at the last moment? Or will it only arrive when I reach the mid-Nascent Soul stage?'

Ronan, still puzzled, continued his cultivation.

After cultivating for a while, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the vicinity suddenly converged towards him, forming a huge vortex.

He summoned the Primordial Chaos.

Cultivation Realm: Mid-Nascent Soul Stage

However, the sun was still shining brightly on the Wizard Tower, showing no sign of the weather changing.

Ronan was surprised.

'The tribulation of lightning is Heaven's way of eliminating those who defy Heaven...'

'Could it be because the rules of the wizarding world and the cultivation world are different?'

'Upon reaching this level, the cultivation world experiences tribulations, while the wizarding world does not?'

'That's right. Having read so many wizarding books and studied wizarding cultivation, I've never heard of needing to undergo tribulations.'

'If that's the case... then there shouldn't be any inner demon tribulations...'

However, nightmare worlds exist in both wizarding worlds and cultivation worlds.

Perhaps, cultivation techniques from the world of immortality, once mastered to a certain level, will attract the attention of creatures from other worlds.

'Because the wizarding world also has otherworldly realms like nightmare realms, it can also attract inner demons.'

'This is likely due to the similarities in some rules between the wizarding world and the cultivation world.'

After thinking for a while, Ronan calmed himself down.

He hadn't returned to the world of cultivation for quite some time.

After all, he had already gained enough knowledge from the world of cultivation.

All he needs to do is use the resources of the wizarding world to continue cultivating immortality techniques.

He didn't know what the cultivation world was like, or if it had changed.

Furthermore, how many relics of cultivators have actually been discovered?

Now that he has reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, he is even more curious about the realms beyond Nascent Soul.

After all, the "Ten Thousand Trees Longevity Scripture" can only be cultivated up to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

Upon realizing this, Ronan's mind immediately stirred.

The next moment, his body appeared in the mortal world of the cultivation world.

After changing into the attire of the cultivation world, he immediately used the Wood Immortal Escape Technique and headed towards the cultivation world.

Upon arriving in the cultivation world, they saw cultivators from two opposing camps engaged in a battle.

The spells cast by the cultivators on one side were quite normal, consisting mainly of fire, lightning, ice, and the like.

The light emitted by the magical artifacts and treasures was also pure and peaceful.

Meanwhile, the spells unleashed by the cultivators on the other side were filled with murderous aura and a bloody hue.

Amidst the malevolent aura and blood-red hues, there were stark white skulls and mournful human faces.

Their magical artifacts and treasures also emitted a predominantly black or blood-red light, giving them an extremely sinister appearance.

Upon seeing this scene, Ronan immediately realized that it was a battle between good and evil.

However, this was within his expectations.

Originally, there were constant minor conflicts between the righteous sects and the six demonic sects.

When he was in the True Sect, in addition to fighting against the righteous sects, he also fought against the cultivators of the demonic sects.

The spiritual energy in the world of cultivation is becoming increasingly scarce.

Resources are becoming increasingly scarce.

Therefore, spiritual veins and resources have become extremely precious.

In his view, a war between good and evil was only a matter of time.

I just don't know how the battle between good and evil is going.

From high above, Ronan could see that the lines between good and evil were clearly drawn.

The righteous path occupied one part of the immortal realm, while the demonic path also occupied another part.

He then planned to fly to the righteous immortal realm to gather information.

While he was flying, he suddenly felt a foul energy fluctuation coming toward him.

Turning his head, he saw a man with a face as pale as paper, surrounded by skull-shaped wisps of malevolent energy flying towards him.

The man stared at him with murderous intent.

They must be taking me as the right path now.

As Ronan was thinking, the man suddenly pushed his hand forward.

Instantly, a skull-shaped ball of malevolent energy flew towards him.

Ronan simply flicked out a bolt of Wood Divine Lightning.

A dazzling bolt of divine lightning streaked across the sky, shattering the skull-shaped mass of malevolent energy before striking the man.

The next moment, the man was instantly reduced to ashes.

Ronan turned around and continued flying towards the Righteous Immortal Realm.

Behind me, I heard several tense cries of "Young Master!"

Perhaps he just killed an important figure in the demonic path.

However, he didn't care either.

Just now, he used Hongmeng to sweep across both the righteous and demonic sides.

None of the monks present were his match.

He doesn't need to hide anything at all.

Moreover, his current stats are higher than those of Chun Yuanzi, the leader of the righteous path.

Even if Chun Yuanzi came, he couldn't do anything to him.

Ronan flashed and landed in a city in the Righteous Immortal Realm.

He stopped a Foundation Establishment cultivator and asked him about the events that had occurred in the cultivation world over the years.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators were unaware of Ronan's recent massacre of demonic cultivators.

He was stopped and was a little annoyed.

However, as Ronan focused his mind, the man immediately felt a surge of pressure.

My legs went weak, and I had an urge to kneel down.
