Tabitha wanted to say something, but Princess Heila spoke first.
"Temple coins are a treasure of our elven race. So what if we don't have those magic crystal mines outside? We elves..."
"..."
As he walked along, Ron exchanged a few simple words, and gradually he came to understand life among the elves.
It's not just Temple Coins, but also the Elf Academy near the Temple, and so on.
The temple is located in the core area of the Elven Ancestor Tree, also known as the World Tree, where the elemental concentration is incomparable to that of the past.
Each race has its own sacred cultivation grounds, and even if they don't, they will create them, such as the spatial domain magic that has appeared in many places throughout history.
The World Tree Barrier is one of the known world-class magics. A significant portion of the barrier's elements are gathered together, so one can imagine the miracles that can occur!
The creation of Temple Coins, simply put, is like the creation of Magic Crystal Mines: when the external environment meets the requirements, it's a natural occurrence.
The word "coin" signifies that the temple's products have undergone further processing; otherwise, cultivating elements detached from the material world would have too many side effects.
One cannot rely solely on Temple Coins to accelerate elemental progress, as this is different from Magic Crystals. Although the quality of Magic Crystals is difficult to guarantee, they can be used continuously for cultivation. Of course, the conditions for cultivation are diverse, and progress is gradual... one must strive for both external resources and one's own efforts.
On the way to the Elven Temple, the group chatted or commented on the elven artworks. Tabitha mainly brought them out to admire, while Sheila explained the general weaving process.
"This necklace utilizes the aged vines of the ancestral tree. Although it's not from the core of the ancestral tree, it still has the effect of accelerating the gathering of wind elements and can also help one achieve a state of tranquility through meditation... and this basket..."
"The core of the necklace..."
"..."
Ron listened without offering an opinion. He also gleaned some unexpected information: the core of the ancestral tree—so, were these the external tree trunks?
There was even more anticipation, because, as expected, the Elf Temple would be able to learn some of the secrets of the World Tree.
Finally, they arrived at the Elven Temple after many twists and turns.
This wasn't a canopy platform at all; it was just a tree hole.
However, it appears to have formed naturally.
Upon reaching the true sacred ground of a clan's cultivation, one's physical body can clearly perceive the flow of elements.
And the destination of the flow is, of course, the depths of the tree hole.
There are two powerful elves guarding this place, and there also appears to be a magic circle outside the tree hole.
The tree trunk served as a path, and the group climbed the steps. Princess Hera, who was at the front, said, "The Queen has allowed the humans who healed the ancestral tree's injuries to enter and cultivate. Please make way."
"Yes, Your Highness."
One of the guards added, "Princess Heila, your mentor hopes you can return to the academy once."
"Hila understands, I'll go back now."
After saying that, Hilla turned to Ron and said, "You can go in now. When you come out, remember to come to the academy to find me immediately, and we'll have another match!"
Clearly, Hilla knew what was important; her personal matters still came after the matter of the ancestral tree.
After finishing her speech, Hilla leaped into the air. She grabbed a vine in the distance and swung like a pendulum to another vine before leaping up again... Her instructor was still waiting for her when she reached the vicinity of the Elf Academy!
Ron looked down and immediately worried about what would happen if he fell. Looking down again, he saw that there was a strange layer of magic below...
No wonder they teleported up back then! I've learned a bit more about the elves now. When there's nothing important to do, and I'm pulling up the vines, Hira seems to be the freest member of the royal family.
It now seems that the space within the World Tree barrier can be considered a small kingdom.
Unbeknownst to him, Ron's concept of big and small was starting to lean towards the otherworldly realm.
"Which two of you are coming in?" the male elf guard asked.
Ron said to Uncle Arno, "Wait for us here."
I glanced at Tebbisa again...
"What are you looking at? Are you trying to invite me in?"
"What are you thinking about? Vivian, let's go!"
"What's so great about it? It's just because he has a good maid..." Tabitha muttered. Of course, she wanted to go in too, but not now. She would go in by herself in a few days and scare this guy to death.
“Let’s go, Phoenix, let’s go over there.”
Tebbisa came to the Elf Clan with her own mission. Before leaving, Tebbisa said a few words in her elven spiritual world.
“Wait, Ron.”
"What's up?"
"Let Little Tower stay with me for a while..."
"this?"
Ron hesitated as he turned around, not because he was worried that Tabitha would harm Little Tower, but because he wanted Little Tower to do something.
Ron inadvertently noticed the expression on the elf's face next to Tebbisa.
You really want to?
Why?
Could it be...
Ron had a vague idea, and tentatively said, "It's fine to let the little fairy and the tower stay with you for a while, but it's up to each of you to do what you're capable of!"
"What? You knew everything?"
"Know what?"
"Ah!...So you didn't know?"
Ron wasn't quite sure at first, but now he understands pretty much.
Tabitha's purpose in coming here was to bring more elves back to the Empire. By contracting a single elf, she could indirectly create the once-in-a-century genius girl Tabitha. So what if she brought in even more?
In any case, the Elven race also intends to integrate into the material world, and the Carlo Empire is trying to strike first!
Although Tabitha was already very talented, there is a big difference between human geniuses who have contracted with elves and those who don't.
Just as the Richie royal family was prevented from making a pact with dragons, not everyone will act like those guys from the Baron Empire of the Sword Sanctuary...
One sword is enough!
Ron reconsidered: "In short, it's a matter of each according to their own abilities. Do you agree or not?"
"Okay!" Tabitha already had her own plan in mind.
"Alright, little Tata, go ahead! Das, Das..."
In the other mental world, Ron was shouting madly.
"Little Tower, Little Tower, go, go... Little Tower, Little Tower, unparalleled, invincible... Go..."
As he walked away, the mental connection weakened, and Ron's last words were: "A reward!"
Little Tower immediately jumped up and stood proudly, patting its little chest.
That look perfectly shows that everything is thanks to my little tower!
He turned around and smiled to himself, now it was up to Xiaota. He hoped that the deception techniques he had taught her in her spare time would be useful in a short period of time.
Even if he enters the World Tree above, so what if his time in the elven settlement is short? Ron can still secretly communicate with Little Tower!
With a smile, Ron and Vivian quickly entered the elven temple.
In the distance, heading towards the place where many little elves live, Tabitha spared no effort: "Little Tower, what's so good about Ron? Why don't you come with me, Tabitha? Look, if you come with me, all of this is yours, and I can satisfy you for anything else!"
It turns out that those elven artworks finally came in handy...
