Chapter 1261 The Second Guardian
In the thick white mist like cotton wool, as the angle of view gradually narrowed, the illusory giant tree that seemed to connect the sky and the earth appeared in front of Xia De again.
Every time you see the shadow left by the father of the infinite tree, it means that an adventure is completely over. Those people, those stories, will be submerged in the dust and corners of history, and Xia De, who has witnessed a series of stories, is just like the countless annual rings on a giant tree that record history, and it only records all this.
Every time I see the shadow left by the father of the infinite tree, I have a completely different mood. But at least this time, Xia De felt less melancholy, because he knew that his new friends would have relatively good endings.
Sister Perry made meritorious deeds before her death, and Mr. Lyman successfully married a girl with animal features and passed on his bloodline until the sixth era. Although Shad doesn't know the history of the witch Brechett, the thirteenth-order witch is an extremely powerful existence even in the fifth era known as the era of witches, so there is no need to worry too much about her future.
"Walking in history, witnessing this story, but never changing anything that has happened. Where is the meaning of all this?"
[Don't you already have a guess? 】
"She" murmured softly, and the unknown wind brought "her" laughter to her ears. The wind also blew across the treetops, and seemed to blew through Xia De's heart. With the sound of rustling, from the transparent canopy, two shimmering emerald green leaves swirled towards Xia De below.
Xia De raised his head:
"I didn't know all of this before witnessing Luvia's story, but now... probably for connection."
He folded his hands together and raised them above his head, letting the overlapping leaves fall into his hands, and lay down with the little pink flower.
For a moment, Xia De felt that he had realized something, and then he realized that it was "Flowers and Leaves" that inspired him:
"Will the Father of the Infinite Tree, Mother Earth, have any... um... special relationship?"
Although this kind of thinking is somewhat blasphemous, the twin sister relationship between "Sage of the Silver Moon" and "Supreme Sun-Binder" has already shown that besides equal status, the thirteen ancient gods may also have other special relationships.
[Maybe your guess is correct, but who can know? 】
Only Shade's thaumaturgy "Voice of the Ancients" can provide the stories of the first era. Unfortunately, there are too few things handed down from those ancient times.
Obtaining two brand new [Youth and Immortal Leaves] means that Xia De will return to reality, and "she" did not forget to remind Xia De softly:
[You are still in a dangerous situation after your return. 】
He was still stuck in the depths of the black mud flowing from the source of the crazy earth, because his own "weight" was not enough to sink, let alone climb out of the ground again.
"It doesn't matter, it is because of this that I dare to venture into there to pursue divinity, after all"
He looked up at the giant tree that was gradually receding in the white mist, and after saying goodbye and thanking him softly, he turned around and walked into the depths of the white mist—
[Outlander, you have returned to the present time. 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[Infinite time blesses you. 】
The white mist dissipated, and black mud emerged from all directions, trying to re-envelope Xia De's body. At this time, the white mist that had not completely disappeared, as if stimulated by the black mud, unexpectedly surged out again.
Xia De still doesn't know what these white mist are, but when the emerald green light turns the whole fog into a terrible miasma, Xia De understands very well the power of the father of the infinite tree, which represents "nature and trees". How powerful the parts really are.
The emerald green fog touched the black mud, and the black mud melted like ice and snow. The emerald green fog formed a spherical space to envelop Shade, and dense green light bloomed around the periphery of the sphere, forming strange tree-like flowing runes. The green mist opened up a safe space for Xia De in the black mud, representing the most extreme "natural" power, making Xia De's eyes emit a green light.
With the help from the oldest tree god, he realized the first "power of the earth" material-free casting:
"The power of the earth—healing aura!"
"what happened?!"
As if Xia De had sacrificed himself, after he threw himself into the black mud, the emerald green brilliance full of life breath rushed straight into the night sky from the eyes of the black mud spring, so that most of the night sky was reflected in a strange green.
Although vitality cannot heal the "Crazy Earth", when the light swept across the edge of the black mud, everyone felt a lot lighter physically and mentally.
It was still winter, but the young shoots of weeds sprouted from the ground of the courtyard that had not been covered by black mud. The swaying emerald green light spots gradually spread towards the surroundings, and it seemed that the phantom of the giant tree could be vaguely seen, rooted in the "spring eye" that spewed black mud and green light, but the earth-yellow aura that rushed out next , so that people once again realize what happened at this moment.
Holding the clay holy grail in her hand, in Miss Lassus's expression that was about to cry—she thought that Shad had sacrificed herself, Shad's figure rose to the ground again in the green light ball and those mixed lights.
Out of danger, the protection of the tree father disappeared, and the earthy aura suppressed the emerald green life force, purifying the dark quagmire.
Even though Xia De had just drank a whole bottle of "Essence of Desire" in one breath, so that he felt like he was going to explode with heat, the consumption of spirit was still far beyond expectation. The current situation this time is not something he can handle at all. The pollution this time comes from the source of the land in the Randall Valley, otherwise it would be impossible for him to perceive divinity, and this level of pollution is even worse than St. The cemetery is even more terrifying - the latter has been sealed for two epochs.
"no."
Xia De is very self-aware. If he carries the [Night Watchman] today, he might still have a chance to fight, but he doesn't even have a spellcasting medium in his hand, so he is ready to retreat temporarily.
Just as he wanted the church to hurry up and send someone to use divine rituals to control the spread of the black mud and give everyone a chance to retreat, they didn't expect a voice to come from behind them. When facing the black mud, someone suddenly spoke, this scene seemed familiar to Xia De:
"Young man, hold on, I'll help you."
The transparent hand of the spirit body lightly patted Xia De on the shoulder, and Xia De, who stood on the ground with both feet, immediately felt that his physical strength and spiritual recovery had become faster.
[Outlander, you have been affected by the thaumaturgy "Power of the Earth · Spring Comes". Within an hour, if you stand on the ground, your spiritual and physical strength will recover faster. 】
This is not over yet, because right after that, Xia De's familiar khaki-yellow aura surged out around him.
Turning his head to look, soil was thrown from the hands of the soul who came from nowhere, and then the translucent Holy Grail was formed in the hands of the soul. Although the Holy Grail is far inferior to the materialized cup in Xia De's hand in terms of "quality", but in terms of "quantity", the opponent's "Power of the Earth·Healing Spiritual Qi" far exceeds the effect of Xia De's spellcasting.
With the support of new power, the land that could not be purified has the possibility of being healed. But when Shad looked at the face of the strange soul, he realized that this was not Mr. Thomas Granger from last time. But this face is not unfamiliar, every time he comes to Randall Valley City, he sees him once in the Church of the Forgotten:
"Mr. Lathers?"
Xia De asked hesitantly, but was not surprised at all. Sister Perry finally said that there are guardians and evils in the Randall Valley itself, and the former protects the peace of this land. Since Mr. Thomas Granger who disappeared seventy years ago was, it is possible that the late Mr. Lathers, the father of Miss Lathers who disappeared more than ten years ago, was also.
The transparent soul nodded slightly, but didn't answer, and didn't even look at Miss Lasers on the periphery. The young girl couldn't see what was happening here clearly at this time, because the two "healing auras" merged together, and the light was too powerful.
With the eruption of the khaki aura from the two sources, the black mud on the ground faded away little by little, but the "black mud spring" where the fountain was originally located is the key.
With Xia De's current strength, it is not enough to completely wipe out this "spring", but obviously Mr. Lathers can do it.
The soul suddenly asked:
"Do you not want the Orthodox Church to see you?"
Now that the church team has arrived, it is still troublesome for Xia De to leave later.
"Yes~www.mtlnovel.com~ Shad replied, so Mr. Lathers put his hand on Shad's shoulder again:
"Don't resist."
As he pushed hard, Shad staggered a step forward. It was obviously only a step away, but he felt as if he had traveled several miles in one go.
Looking around again, there is a snow-covered path in the dark suburbs under your feet, surrounded by sparse dry forests. The starry sky above his head hangs upside down, and the light of March makes Xia De happy.
There are still some traces of emerald green in the night sky in the southeast, and the distant manor, which is covered by a corner of the dead forest, is obviously the place where Shade fought just now. Even if he is outside the manor at this moment, he can still feel the huge healing spiritual energy permanently healing the land, and Xia De, who also has this power, really can't imagine how huge a spiritual energy is to activate such a large-scale spell. He even believed that it was entirely possible for Mr. Lathers to "sink" directly to the bottom of the black mud to touch the great power that Shad wanted to touch.
He stood there in a daze, knowing that he had come to a safe place, but his doubts became more because of what happened tonight:
"The guardians who came directly out of the Randall Valley, are they all dead souls?"
