#892 - Tree of life!
"Oh ~ you're here too? Interested in the Tree of Life?"
After closing the door and returning to the balcony on the second floor, Liang Yue inadvertently noticed another figure in the room.
This person wore a simple white robe, tall and elegant, with black hair cascading down, and a delicate golden gemstone tiara on their forehead. Their fair, jade-like skin radiated a dreamy, soft glow.
It was none other than the Elf Princess Arwen, who had been training with the main group in the mortal world.
Compared to Liang Yue and the others, Arwen's existence was unique. As a member of the Elven race, like the giant eagle Rachel from the Hobbit world, she seemed somewhat out of place with the rest of the team, both in the early stages of cultivation and even now, due to her race.
Fortunately, Liang Yue's mother had once gifted them a magical tome, which solved their immediate problem.
Based on this, Arwen and Rachel also began to follow in the footsteps of Liang Yue and the others, gradually developing a cultivation path focused on magic, based on their own actual situations!
Later, although the group also borrowed many magic cultivation books from the library of the New York Sanctum, they still mainly relied on the magical tome left by Liang Yue's mother.
The magic books in the New York Sanctum, although seemingly comprehensive and containing many secrets of magic cultivation, did not contain any techniques that could elevate one's life level, for some unknown reason.
In short, the magic cultivation secrets there were basically books on using spells and increasing knowledge reserves. Cultivating them could allow one to unleash powerful magic.
The profound ones even touched upon the rules of the universe!
However, the primary methods for accumulating magic power, advancing in realm, and sublimating one's own life level, which are fundamental to cultivation, were completely absent...
The people in the Magic Sanctum didn't seem to value magic power cultivation very much. They basically relied on borrowing from the universe and various dimensions, making immediate deployments, and then casting spells.
This was probably related to the philosophy of their organization~
Just as Baron Mordo said in the movie, the Earth's sorcerer community exists not only to protect the Earth from invasion by monsters from other dimensions and alternate timelines, but also to maintain the balance of the Earth.
As for the sorcerers' own life levels, they didn't seem to care. To be precise, they didn't value their own bodies, but sought transcendence in the soul.
The Ancient One was the longest-lived member of this organization, living for over seven hundred years in the original storyline, but the reason she was able to live so long was not because her own life level was high, but because she frequently borrowed high-quality magic power from different dimensions, passively maintaining the vitality of her body.
The same was true for the soul. At most, it was about passively nourishing it with magic power, and the process of self-purification during the learning of magic operation and rule operation.
Okay, let's get back to the topic...
The books in the Supreme Magic Sanctum were basically about the principles and knowledge of various magic spells, but they did not involve the realm sublimation of the cultivators themselves.
Therefore, for Arwen and Rachel, most of the cultivation matters still had to rely on themselves. Fortunately, after cultivating to a certain stage, the various systems basically showed a convergence of paths.
Later, after Liang Yue summarized a set of rune cultivation paths based on the various talismans collected from the DC world, the two alien races were completely freed from their constraints and began the path of dual cultivation of magic and runes.
However, magic was still Arwen and Rachel's primary cultivation system.
The Tree of Life, which can autonomously generate magic power and release magical elements, is undoubtedly very important to them.
Just like when Liang Yue obtained the sapling of the World Tree in the Evangelion world, after a period of research, he was able to create a green sapling dedicated to converting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the same way.
Moreover, in this process, his understanding of the operation and generation principles of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was also greatly improved.
It was not difficult to understand why Arwen would be interested in this Tree of Life at this time.
In addition, in the current Marvel world, the Tree of Life is also the source of the Elven race, containing the secrets of the elves' lives!
Although Arwen is not an elf from this world, but originated from the creation god of her original plane, the mysteries of life will naturally arouse other people's desire to explore.
"In your world, can every sapling of the Tree of Life grow into an ancient Tree of Life?"
Hearing Liang Yue's words, Arwen did not answer, but curved her lips into a smile and stretched out her fair palm, then asked.
Seeing this, Liang Yue waved his sleeve and took out the remaining sapling of the Tree of Life, which was temporarily stored in his Tianyanto, and handed it to the other party.
"I'm not sure. The information given at the auction before was not comprehensive. Even the marked ones may not be completely credible. The elves in this world have obviously kept something back."
"I feel that the will in that Tree of Life seems to have fallen into a deep sleep."
Arwen nodded lightly upon hearing this, and after putting away the sapling, she looked at the towering tree in the distance, which stood like a majestic giant mountain in the night.
Including the Tree of Life when it was still in the sapling state~
And the will of the Tree of Life, which had not experienced the growth process in between after being ripened by Liang Yue, was obviously not sound.
However, at this moment, in Liang Yue's sight, this will in the core of the Tree of Life's tree body is already different from the past.
Only half a year apart, it has quickly condensed its own soul body, and it is already quite powerful, but it is still in a sleeping state.
The external appearance of this soul body is a translucent, light green color full of vitality. Like breathing, it is undergoing unconscious bulging and contraction.
In the process, it is constantly drawing nutrients from the tree body, consolidating and sublimating itself.
It is worth mentioning that the Tree of Life species also has its own set of operating systems for absorbing energy from the outside world, replenishing itself, and then feeding back to the surrounding world.
The energy it needs in the process of growing is not generated out of thin air.
High in the night sky, the dense, overlapping, lush, and canopy-like countless emerald green leaves that cover the vast surrounding area, like brilliant luminous bodies, are now working hard to absorb the light source from the universe and various energy substances.
This process is very gentle~
At this moment, countless green leaves are naturally and instinctively absorbing various light sources, radiation, dark matter energy, etc. from outside the atmosphere.
While integrating into itself and transforming nutrients, it will not have any adverse effects on the surrounding life forms. The magic power and elemental power generated by the operation will instead promote their evolution.
Even the waste remaining at the very end of this operating system will transform the large area within the scope of its roots into the most fertile soil!
Therefore, although this Tree of Life may not be comparable to the World Tree in terms of species level, it can still be called a top-level natural treasure!
