Lucien frowned deeply and, enduring the intense pain, forced himself to stand. The wound that had not yet healed reopened, and black blood seeped uncontrollably from the entangled bandages.
"Third brother, are you crazy!"
Just as tensions rose, suddenly an elder hurried in from outside the hall, led by a group of guards. Seeing the situation inside the Great Hall, the elder was momentarily stunned.
What was going on?
Why were the second and third princes fighting?
Elder Brand saw the newcomer and quickly asked, "Elder Tatia, how is the frontline battle?"
Tatia came to her senses, first saluting the two princes, then said, "Two princes, not long ago new vines of the Tree of Life appeared on the frontline battlefield and played a great role. The spikes of the new vines could seal the mutant worms’ ability to resurrect, which greatly helped the frontline! His Majesty sent me to check the situation and fully assist the third prince in completing the plan according to the premonition."
Hearing this, everyone in the Great Hall fell silent and looked at Neo.
Reinforcements had arrived!
Neo rejoiced upon hearing this.
He had bet correctly!
Just as he had predicted in the premonition, the premonition was true!
The newborn ancient Tree of Life was the elves’ only unique method of salvation!
Neo laughed wildly.
"Hahaha! Second brother! What do you have to say now? The frontline situation is not as bad as we thought. Thanks to the newborn ancient tree, we have a breather. The premonition has come true! The newborn Tree of Life will lead our elves to a more glorious future!"
Neo could no longer hide his pride and walked over to Lucien.
"Second brother, I think you should rest and heal. Leave this to me."
Lucien’s expression changed several times.
"Second brother, listen to me. As you just saw, no matter if it’s the newborn Tree of Life or not, its power is so violent and far from benevolent. This will cause problems."
"Is that so? I think not. You were the one who threatened the newborn ancient tree, which is why it showed hostility toward you," Neo said, then looked back at the newborn Tree of Life. "Tree of Life, relax. That was just an accident. No one here means you harm."
It seemed to understand the third prince’s words, as the vines flowing out from the magic array slowly calmed down.
"See? The ancient Tree of Life is still under our control!"
Inside the Great Hall, the expressions of the elves grew strange.
The facts were before their eyes, and they gradually leaned toward Neo.
"Second brother, do you have anything else to say?"
Lucien opened his mouth but could only shake his head slightly.
Neo turned back to the elves in the Great Hall and loudly declared, "You have all heard and seen. You are about to witness the birth of a new generation of the Tree of Life. Everyone, cooperate fully to help the newborn sacred tree complete the succession!"
"Yes!"
The entire Elven tribe mobilized. All magic arrays operated simultaneously, channeling the power of the ancient Tree of Life into the newborn magic array to supply energy to Abe Akaya.
At the same time, Fang Heng’s retinal game hints refreshed rapidly.
[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbed natural energy, gained 28.17 million experience points.]
[Hint: Abe Akaya leveled up...]
[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbed natural energy...]
...
At the frontline battlefield.
As the energy of the ancient Tree of Life was largely extracted to supply Abe Akaya, the original blue protective barrier of the ancient tree gradually weakened.
Without the barrier’s protection, the elves retreated steadily.
Meanwhile, new vines from Abe Akaya constantly pierced out from underground, blocking the mutant worm swarm’s attacks.
The dark red vines killed mutant worms with a single strike, dragging them into the ground.
After hours of fierce, continuous battle, the elves gradually realized that the swarm’s attacks weakened under the assault of the new sacred tree’s vines, even showing signs of ceasing.
After the final wave of attacks, the swarm slowly retreated.
Was it over?
The elves remained calm, did not pursue, but continued to shrink their defense.
Until confirming the swarm had completely withdrawn.
After hours of fierce fighting, the Elven warriors finally breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed to rest.
At this moment, the elves realized that the ancient Tree of Life that had accompanied them for tens of millions of years was also slowly approaching its end as its power was continuously extracted.
The towering Tree of Life began to wither and decay from the outside, gradually turning into dust that dispersed into the flowing air.
Before the eyes of the elves, the Tree of Life withered completely and lost all vitality, leaving only a dried, lifeless trunk.
The Elven king sighed heavily as he looked at the dissipating source of the ancient tree and led a group of elders to the blessing temple.
At this time, the last trace of vitality from the ancient Tree of Life was completely drained by Abe Akaya.
The Elven elders gathered their gaze on a sapling growing in the center of the alchemy magic array inside the Great Hall.
"A new generation of the Tree of Life..."
Though still very young, unlike the old Tree of Life, all the elves could feel the vigorous vitality blossoming from the sapling.
The Elven king listened to Neo’s report and gazed intently at the sapling, pondering.
A new king?
The aura from the sapling felt somewhat unsettling.
Something was off.
But it was too late to turn back.
The future of the Elven tribe rested on this young tree.
The Elven king’s eyes swept over the third prince Neo and praised, "Neo, you did very well this time."
Neo showed a look of excitement and bowed, "Thank you for your trust, father!"
The Elven king looked to Cleriway beside him and said, "From today on, you are the elves’ goddess. You will be responsible for tending the Tree of Life."
"Me?"
Cleriway was flustered, "I’ve never done it before, I..."
"Deborah will guide you."
The Elven king fixed his gaze on Cleriway as if seeing into her heart, "The Tree of Life is the elves’ future. I entrust our tribe’s future to you. Promise me you will take good care of the Tree of Life and our people."
Cleriway seemed to see a plea in the Elven king’s eyes. She opened her mouth and nodded seriously, "Yes, I will not fail the Elven king’s trust and will do my utmost to cultivate the Tree of Life."
Cleriway had already discovered the truth.
The so-called Tree of Life had already completely died.
And she was very familiar with the aura of the new Tree of Life.
It was undoubtedly Abe Akaya.
Perhaps the Elven king had also noticed that something was wrong with the newborn ancient Tree of Life?
Cleriway was unsure.
The Elven king then looked to Kapa beside him, "Kapa, you have contributed. I appoint you the honorary High Priest of the elves. Do you accept?"
