Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 343 - 326 "Promotion" Lesser Divine Power
Chapter 343: Chapter 326 "Promotion" Lesser Divine Power
Platinum Dragon King Reinhardt was an ancient Silver Dragon who survived the Age of Giant Dragons, possessing the strength of medium divine power.
She was an ancient god who revered justice and would not tolerate any evil act, being a mortal enemy of Nidhogg.
Reinhardt was very enthusiastic about maintaining the lineage of dragons and was eager to teach the young of the species. All kind-hearted dragons held her in high esteem, especially the metallic dragons, who revered her as the leader of metallic dragons.
Even the evil chromatic dragons had to acknowledge Reinhardt’s wisdom and strength, and they respected her greatly as well.
Additionally, like many Silver Dragons, Reinhardt particularly enjoyed taking on humanoid forms or avatars to be active in human society, leaving various legends behind in their culture...
After going through this information, *a peculiar thought rose in Eve’s mind*:
"This Platinum Dragon King... could she be Mairrel’s foster father?"
There was no doubt about it. With Mairrel completely in a Silver Dragon form now, it must have been the work of this person present...
*Honestly... the destructive and controlling desires ingrained in a Black Dragon were as stubborn as a dragon’s greed for treasure, and to be able to groom a Black Dragon into the worldview of a Silver Dragon—this ancient Silver Dragon was indeed impressive.*
"The racial strength of dragons was still very formidable, and judging from the World Tree’s heritage, although this ancient Silver Dragon didn’t have much interaction with the World Tree, she wasn’t an enemy either and held a righteous worldview. If given the opportunity in the future, it might be worth trying to befriend her..."
With a slight lament, Eve refocused her attention on Nidhogg.
She pondered for a moment, then first pulled the imprisoned Nidhogg out of Mairrel’s spiritual world, and then retreated from Mairrel’s spiritual world herself...
After undergoing a "Soul Search," this unfortunate ancient Black Dragon grew even weaker.
At this moment, Eve noticed that Nidhogg’s dragon soul started to emit an aura of evil corruption, and his consciousness began to show signs of chaotic madness...
"Was the abyssal corruption becoming uncontrollable?"
Ancient gods eroded by the abyss eventually lost themselves, becoming paranoid and insane, evil and fallen.
In fact, it was beyond Eve’s expectation that Nidhogg managed to maintain a clear mind until now.
Nevertheless, after seeing his memories, *Eve had a faint guess in her heart*.
She did not hesitate any longer but directly chose to erase Nidhogg’s consciousness and utterly obliterate him!
An ancient dragon god who had dominated the Segis Universe for millions of years... fell so miserably like this.
Even if he had set aside a backup plan somewhere, even if he had a card to revive...
But with the consumption of his original divine soul, it was unlikely he’d be able to return.
After erasing the consciousness, Eve decisively devoured Nidhogg’s Divine Soul Power...
With the devouring, she felt a vast force of divine soul power pouring into her spiritual world.
This power was chaotic yet strong, with nearly half already tainted by abyssal powers, yet sustained in a balance by a mass of pale green energy.
Eve recognized it; it was part of the World Tree’s essence.
Back when he bit the roots of the World Tree, Nidhogg managed to swallow part of the World Tree’s essence.
Although Nidhogg couldn’t endure the might brought by the World Tree’s essence, he absorbed a portion nonetheless and integrated it into his divine soul.
This was why Nidhogg could stay lucid, and why his believers could use Life Divine Skills, aside from the factor of the Life Scepter, through relying on this part of the World Tree’s essence.
Of course, now it was time for it to return to its original owner.
With Eve’s absorption, Nidhogg’s divine soul rapidly disintegrated. That part of the divine soul tainted by abyssal forces turned into the purest energy, absorbed by the main body through [Devour], enhancing Eve’s divine power...
An ancient god was an ancient god.
Though weak, and merely a divine soul, the power it could transform into remained terrifying.
With the devouring, Eve’s divine power surged rapidly, breaking past 2000 in an instant and closing in on 3000.
*Feeling the divine power value soaring within her as if on a rocket, Eve was exceedingly pleased.*
However, the delight wasn’t solely from the increase in divine power value.
The part of the divine soul not yet corrupted by abyssal forces was disintegrated into the purest soul power, which Eve devoured to enhance her own divine soul...
At that moment, *Eve felt her consciousness seemed to become clearer and more acute. Vaguely, she sensed her control over the players, her control over the domain of faith, and her control over divine power were all rapidly strengthening.*
*This was the benefit brought by the enhancement of her divine soul!*
As for the portion of the World Tree’s essence hidden in the depths, it also returned to the World Tree’s main body...
At the very moment the essence returned, Eve’s divine power value broke past the threshold of three thousand, reaching the lowest standard of weak divine power!
In that instant, *Eve felt her entire being rejoicing exuberantly.*
Then... she began to grow rapidly!
Elf Forest.
A powerful aura, filled with vitality, emanated from the World Tree, continuously spreading to the surroundings...
The players and elves in the Chosen City instinctively lifted their heads, then fell into deep awe.
They witnessed the main trunk of the World Tree suddenly growing rapidly, piercing through the clouds...
In an instant, the body of the World Tree grew almost double in size!
New branches began to sprout from the limbs of the World Tree, fresh buds unfolded, gradually forming a rich greenery...
The ground rumbled softly.
The once-broken roots also began to grow quickly, rooting deeper into the earth...
"A Divine Miracle! This is the Mother Goddess’s Divine Miracle! The Mother Goddess’s power has further restored!"
Seeing the changes in the World Tree, the elves were moved to emotions and, in an instant, turned toward the horizon and knelt down in reverence.
At the same time, a massive, rich life force transformed into countless green particles, starting to disperse from the World Tree, drifting outward.
As these green particles entered the bodies of players and elves, it invigorated them, seemingly dissipating all fatigue in an instant...
And the plants within the Chosen City experienced a second activation.
Countless plants sprouted and unfolded their leaves, and the entire city was engulfed in a sea of green and blossoms.
*All of creation bowed in worship...*
However, this was not the end.
Amid the continuous spreading of life’s power, the street trees within the Chosen City started to change significantly...
These were oak trees transplanted by the players from the forest.
These oak trees began to grow rapidly, increasing in size until they reached at least 30 meters in height.
Then, they extended branches from their sides, transforming into rugged arms, and drew up roots from the soil, forming sturdy, massive feet...
They... under the influence of life’s divine power, began to self-evolve into new Oak Guardians!
These Oak Guardians all turned toward the direction of the World Tree, then kneeled with one knee, their powerful voices filled with respect and sincerity:
"Praise nature! Praise life! Praise the great Elven Ruler—Eve Yggdrasil!"
