Novel Full Chapter 342 - Three Seemingly Opposing Armies
'What do I need to do to put all these ruins into the Nature Realm?' Elysia hovered over the tree of life's ruins. She telepathically asked the golden oval ball on her hand.
'Nature Realm's Core has recognized you as its new master. All you need to do is send your intentions to the gem by saying Nature Realm access permission. The portal will open for you, and you can customize it at will with magic.' Lifa responded lightly.
Even though Elysia didn't really understand, she tried to put it into practice. She touched the green gem near her cleavage and channeled her magic along with her intention. 'Nature Realm access permission.'
As soon as Elysia said that, a vortex space portal opened right before her eyes. Then, she could see the expanse of fertile green land with lots of trees there.
'Nature Realm's portal has opened. You can put everything in there. But please remember, the core will remain outside. So, if you enter, your necklace will be left outside.' Lifa reminded Elysia because she was worried if this girl would immediately enter the Nature Realm.
'En, I understand, Madam Lifa. I just need to put all this mess on any empty ground, right?' Elysia nodded in understanding.
'Yes, everything. However, leave whatever is 300 meters underground. The roots there are heavily contaminated. Hmm... Can you purify the remaining evil energy in my body remains?' Lifa had another concern considering that her body was not pure from evil energy, namely curses.
'I can do that. This one is actually easier because I don't have to consider a person's life.' Elysia moved her other hand and cast her magic to lift up all the tree of life's ruins.
Thousands of tons of the divine tree were lifted into the air. Elysia also uprooted it as per Lifa's request.
'Strong gravity magic. Good, please purify my body remain before you put it into the Nature Realm. Not for anything, but only so you don't have to work twice. All of this is the parts of the divine tree. You can do whatever you want with this to create any kind of Divine Grade Treasures.' Lifa shared other tips, and Elysia just agreed to that.
Elysia purified the tree of life's remains with Elena's help. But, she continued to pull out the roots until about 300 meters of them came to the surface of the ground.
More than that, the black aura from the curse and contamination was too severe to be purified. The root itself was corrupted beyond recognition.
'Cut all those roots with high-level divine magic. I'm sure you can cut it easily as my divine protection is no longer there.' Lifa stared sadly at the terrifying roots. It could no longer be called a divine treasure.
'Do I need to destroy everything buried deep underground? I remember you saying that yesterday. There are countless remnants of accursed monsters and thousands still living deep underground.' Elysia slowly put the purified tree of life's remains into the Nature Realm with her magic. However, she didn't immediately cut that pitch-black roots.
'I have no doubt that you can do it, Elysia girl. However, I'm afraid that you will suffer from the curse of the monsters who are still alive even after more than 99 thousand years of being buried in the seal.' Lifa grew worried that this pillar of hope would suffer from the curse as well. She didn't want Elysia to suffer anything before that decisive battle.
Broadly speaking, this world only had one existence capable of slaughtering the remaining three God-level curse-bearing monsters. The other five divine existences, herself no longer included, had already weakened far too much.
'It's okay, I can handle it.' Elysia confirmed that confidently after asking Elena's suggestion in mind.
'Hmm? Why are you so confident? Ah, what a fool I am... If you are capable of eradicating my daughter's curses, then it will also apply to you. Broadly speaking, those curses cannot hurt you. If so, please destroy everything underground, including those contaminated roots.' Lifa felt stupid and senile for missing that fact.
Thus, she didn't forbid or worry about anything anymore. She only needed to see her daughter recover, then got into a contract with Elysia. After that, she could consider coming back to life as a small tree with sealed memory.
'Affirmative.' Elysia expressed her agreement.
She proceeded to burn the curse energy in every part of the tree of life, then put all of them into the Nature Realm. Surprisingly, it was easy to cut with just light blade magic for the part near the root that was severely contaminated.
"Wait, if this is a divine treasure, why is it that roots are so easily chopped off?" Elysia muttered in surprise, and she unconsciously spoke with her mouth, not in her mind.
'It's because the tree of life is already fragile due to contamination and evil energy. When I died, the tree of life fell apart instead of falling with the tree intact. All of the purified parts of the tree of life will regain their strength as divine treasure soon.' Lifa lamented how fragile she had been in the last thousand years.
'I see...' Elysia didn't speak anymore after that. She only burned curse energy in the roots that she had cut, then threw it into Nature Realm. It was so convenient because she could move the exit point from this portal at will.
However, it took quite a while because the tree of life was not small.
'Oh, so because of that... No wonder the tree of life was protected inside this protective yet isolated domain. Apart from sealing the curse energy that might cause death, this old granny also protected her fragile self from any outsider.' Elena assumed the truth. She and Elysia once thought that the tree of life was so fragile even though it was a divine treasure.
'En, with this much divine wood, we can make a superclass house. Uhm, a divine house?' Elysia had a funny idea in her mind.
'It's possible, Ely. However, we better not touch anything of this old granny's legacy or treasure for the time being.' Elena smiled with amusement to see Elysia's imagination about the divine home.
'Yes, Madam Lifa is still alive. She will probably reclaim her Private Realm's Core.' Elysia got the point.
'That's not it, my silly Ely. This old granny will not take back what was given. What worries me is... I'm sure there are so many treasures in the Nature Realm. I don't want you to go blind because of treasures.' Elena spoke candidly about her worries.
'Oh my... Then, I need to be extra careful. I also feel anxious to know this green gem holds a lot of treasures. No, there's even a mini world in it.' Elysia chuckled to go with the flow, but her words were definite.
As soon as Elysia finished putting all the tree of life purified parts into the Nature Realm, she closed the portal. At the same time, the domain had also wholly collapsed... All kinds of creatures or even insects could enter the area without anything in the way.
'Elysia girl, we've taken quite a while. Maybe in an hour or two, those accursed monsters will come to the surface.' Lifa had some concerns as the domain completely collapsed. However, it was only those monsters that worried him the most.
'Hehe, you no longer call them curse-bearing monsters, Madam Lifa.' Elysia landed on the ground and looked around. The environment was destroyed within a radius of more than two kilometers due to the roots uprooting earlier.
At that moment, Nell sent telepathy to Elysia with slight anxiety. 'Elysia, there are a lot of parties that are approaching us. Look at the sky to the east, southwest, and northwest. What shall we do?'
"Eh?" Elysia glanced at the three directions. Far in the sky, a large class army was approaching. They even came with massive weapons like floating fortresses that looked so dangerous.
'Are they going to have a big war around here?' Elena muttered with one eyebrow raised. Those large-scale armies coming from three directions would not bode well for their favor.
'We need to destroy everything underground with several earthquake stomps and escape from the scene. Is it good?' Elysia asked for Elena's advice before taking action.
Before Elena could answer, Lifa muttered telepathically to Elysia. 'Looks like they came for divine treasures. I want to know the current attitude of the three races closest to me. Elysia girl, please wrap everyone up with magic and hide around here. Let's see the true purpose of the Elven Race, Fairy Race, and Dwarven Race to come to the tree of life at this moment and with such grand weapons.'
'Eh? Then, what about the accursed monsters underground. They'll break free from the broken seal and will be digging out into the surface in an hour or two, right?' Elysia felt conflicted because of the current situation and Lifa's contradictory proposition.
'Everything will be fine because you are still around.' Lifa had already thrown the thought of the accursed monsters underground from her mind. She was more interested in the current situation.
'You said it, Madam Lifa. That's right! You do intend to pass all responsibility and trouble on me.' Elysia expressed her grievance about Lifa's arbitrary tactics.
'...' Lifa remained silent. She chose not to respond to that claim.
'Good thing we didn't just let this old granny go away forever, Ely. Hehe... We'll make her compensate for that.' Elena chuckled evilly at some ideas for the golden oval ball.
Even so, Elysia soon joined Nell and the others. After they became a group, she wrapped everyone in a magic invisible. At that time, they only looked at the sky to stare at the three seemingly opposing armies flying closer.
