The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again
Chapter 225 Gifts
On the way here, Jiang Liujing had already told the Great Elder the purpose of his visit.
He originally thought that the Great Elder would make some other reactions, but in fact, the Great Elder seemed to have anticipated it and nodded happily to him, saying that the elves would cooperate with them.
At that time, Jiang Liujing had a vague premonition.
Perhaps they have been being spied on these days.
Generally, the sight of fantasy beasts will be captured and noticed by them, but there is a kind of sight of life that they cannot escape no matter what in the Canglong Mountains.
That is plants.
There are countless trees and grasses everywhere in the mountains, and underground, apart from the soil, there are only the tangled roots of plants.
They are the most silent existence here, but also the most pervasive.
Jiang Liujing knew Sang Mo and knew that an old tree spirit of Sang Mo's level could easily control other plants. If the mother tree of the elves also had similar abilities, then it would not be difficult to learn about them.
Countless leaves, like lake water, rustled overhead. The Great Elder translated in real time:
"The Mother Tree welcomes you here. Regarding obtaining the Source of Life, it will help guide it in this direction, but how to gain its approval and successfully capture it is something you need to figure out on your own."
Jiang Liujing stood up straight and looked straight ahead. Facing a being similar to Sang Mo, his attitude became more upright.
He said seriously, "Thank you for your help."
The leaves suddenly shook even more violently, almost like an endless tide, one wave after another, surging and spreading overhead.
The Great Elder looked at Jiang Liujing in surprise, not understanding why the mother tree could be so happy just because of a human's compliment.
The mother tree is usually very aloof. Even the great elder who has been with it for more than three thousand years can only get the power to communicate with it.
This was the first time the Great Elder had seen such a noticeable change in its mood. Could it be because this human's scent was particularly pleasant?
The Great Elder suddenly looked at Jiang Liujing with hesitation and asked, "Are you really a human?"
He still found it hard to believe that the mother tree of the elves would be so partial to an outsider.
However. "Uriel also asked me this question, but in my memory, I am indeed a human."
Jiang Liujing pursed his lips and recalled, "She also asked me to ask you."
The Great Elder shook his head.
"She must think you're the reincarnation of a certain spirit, but only the mother tree can tell whether the souls are the same. Even I can't do that."
Jiang Liujing raised his head again, and his long black hair flowed across his cheeks and ears like water, and fell to the ground from the gap behind his neck.
He stared at the mother tree, and seemed to be so focused that his body unconsciously walked forward.
No one is allowed to approach the mother tree, even if he is an honored guest.
Just as the Great Elder was about to raise his hand to stop him, he felt a sudden gust of strong wind blowing in front of him, hitting his hand squarely.
The Great Elder's eyes were instantly filled with astonishment, and he looked forward in disbelief.
During this time, Jiang Liujing had successfully come to the bottom of the tree, stretched out a hand, and gently placed it on the trunk.
Frost and snow covered the brown, and delicate silk wrapped the rough edges.
In an instant, a strange feeling spread along his arm to his whole body, as if countless images poured into his mind, then quickly disappeared and shattered before he could recognize them.
The black-haired boy began to tremble slightly all over, and suddenly he closed his eyes and leaned against the tree trunk as if exhausted.
Along with this, thousands of glowing silver-white lines suddenly appeared between the trunks of the mother tree, each of which was deeply embedded in the rugged ravines.
The lines shone brightly, as if countless shining suns suddenly appeared among the dark brown.
This scene was too strange, and the Great Elder had never seen it before. He wondered in his heart what the identity of this young man was, and how he could have such a strong resonance with the mother tree.
Chi Ze stared at Jiang Liujing closely, paying attention to his expression.
The boy's expression wasn't particularly good, even showing a hint of pain. No sound came from the contract, but Chi could sense his suppressed and turbulent emotions.
Chi really wanted to pull him back, but was afraid of interfering with his opportunity at the moment - a constant supply of power was pouring into Jiang Liujing from the mother tree.
Normally, magic power between different life forms cannot be directly transferred. Once refined, they will have distinct individual characteristics and will be incompatible with one another.
Unless it is a forbidden magic circle like blood sacrifice, which treats the life of the other party as consumables, it changes from a transfer between the living to a sacrifice of the undead to the living.
But the mother tree did it. The power was infused to the limit that Jiang Liujing's body could bear at the moment, and it finally stopped after half of the barrier was broken.
Jiang Liujing slowly opened his eyes. In just a few minutes, he had completed the leap from level 6 to level 7. Full power filled his body, and all the fatigue and pain in his body were swept away.
But a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. He looked down at his hands, as if thinking about something.
After touching the mother tree, his consciousness was like being sucked into a whirlpool and he lost consciousness. Countless images flashed through his mind in an instant... They were all very strange and disappeared quickly. Jiang Liujing couldn't recall them now.
But when I looked up at the tree in front of me again, a strong feeling of nostalgia suddenly arose in my heart.
"Do you know me? Have we met before?"
The tree has no mouth and can't make any sound, only the blue leaves on the tree are rustling.
Many of them fell from the sky, and the moment they left the sky, they turned into brilliant golden color and landed squarely on the young man's palm.
Jiang Liujing lowered his head.
Wulier said that an elf could only obtain one leaf from the mother tree, and now there was a thick pile of leaves in his palm.
Like a precious gift.
The large patch of white light on the tree trunk had not disappeared at this moment. Facing Jiang Liujing's gaze, it suddenly gathered together in mid-air, continuously compressing and gathering. In a few breaths, it shrank into a thin and long shape like a stick.
With a plop, a white light fell to Jiang Liujing's feet. After the light dissipated, a staff emitting a soft glow was revealed. The staff was engraved with ancient and mysterious runes, and it glowed faintly like a living thing.
However, inconsistent with the gorgeous and mysterious body of the staff, the top of the staff where the gem should be inlaid is empty.
Jiang Liujing counted them and found a total of eight empty holes, one large and seven small. From a distance, it looked like the head had been removed.
Because of this incompleteness, the originally precious staff suddenly had a sense of loneliness and dilapidatedness.
