Sophia didn't hide anything and said in a low voice, "This kind of technology has actually been around for hundreds of years among the elves. According to elven records, Whispering Forest was often massacred by various races, and countless lives were wiped out. The elves, who love life, could not tolerate this but could not stop it from happening. They could only watch as countless races living in Whispering Forest gradually disappeared."
"Until one day, the Elf Queen of that generation communicated with the Tree of Life and received guidance from it. She learned that the water drawn from the roots of the Tree of Life would be transformed into a life essence, which could preserve all life force from being corrupted, allowing life to endure forever."
"Therefore, the Elven race searched extensively for those races that were on the verge of extinction, and immersed them in the life essence. In order to facilitate the preservation of life force in the life essence, they built the Holy Spirit Tower on the spring of life essence."
Even as Sophia spoke these words, she still felt that such things were sacred and great, for her elven race were eternal believers in life.
The other elves' faces were also filled with enthusiasm, a testament to the ancient wisdom of their ancestors!
However, Quan Ji, Jun Chenlan, and Feng Simian all frowned when they heard these words.
Quan Ji asked a question: "What races did you turn into living specimens?"
Upon hearing this, all the elves were stunned, while Jun Chenlan and Feng Simian stared at the group of elves.
Led by Sophia, the elves shook their heads repeatedly: "No... Miss, you've misunderstood. We're merely allowing the lives of this race to continue, not displaying them..."
Quan Ji scoffed coldly: "Take me there to see, immediately!"
Sophia and the other elves were momentarily stunned.
"Okay...we'll take you there right away."
"But promise me, do not let the land of elves fall into deeper chaos, and do not let our return be discovered."
Kwon Ji agreed with them.
But her mind was filled with unpleasant images.
She suddenly felt that the elves' love for life and pursuit of eternity might have gone too far.
Previously, news about the aloof elves was scarce throughout the entire Noah continent. People only knew that they were a race that loved life, but they didn't know the deeper aspects of this race.
All that people see is the beauty of this race.
Now, Quan Ji feels she needs to re-evaluate this race, one of the eight major races of the Lenoa continent.
...
...
On the other side.
Beneath the enormous Tree of Life, a stunningly beautiful woman with blonde hair reaching her ankles withdrew her immense life energy, and the mirror reflecting Quan Ji and the others vanished instantly.
Beside him, a handsome man dressed in a black tuxedo was gradually regaining his strength.
He is the Archbishop of the Abyss, and his power has recovered by 30%.
He said, “Queen of the Elves, even if she wants to destroy the Tower of the Holy Spirit, you cannot intervene before the Tree of Life is revived. Don’t ruin our deal.”
"If she dies, then the abyss's hundreds of years will have been wasted."
Vivian possessed immense strength, yet she was utterly powerless against this man.
She sneered, "The power of the abyss really knows how to meddle... I have no power to pursue anything else. I only hope that after the transaction is over, you can protect the elven race as you say."
The man found it somewhat amusing. "That's natural, but... the secret of this Holy Spirit Tower is quite interesting. It seems that you elves don't love life as much as the rumors suggest."
The Elf Queen was slightly taken aback, then her face turned pale, and she managed a weak laugh.
"No, you are wrong. This is a secret that only those who truly become the Elf King know. My elven children... do not know this cruel truth."
"They love all life, it comes from the bottom of their hearts... But the Elf King has the mission of protecting the Elf race, and all the sins should be borne by the King."
The Archbishop of the Abyss smiled and shook his head: "No wonder every Elf King ends up with a terrible death."
As he spoke, he activated the water mirror again.
“I can feel the aura of a god approaching. At this point… it’s either protect her or kill her.”
"Unfortunately, the power of the abyss cannot interfere with her. Only when the Tree of Life is revived and that being is born... can it be used to counterbalance her."
"Let's see just how much this young lady has grown."
"Those who voted against it back then are probably getting restless now."
"Let Yagami protect our young lady to prove his loyalty."
The Archbishop of the Abyss smiled, then suddenly realized something interesting: "Who is that god you captured?"
The Elf Queen dared not lie, for she knew that the man before her, if he so desired, could surely find out which god they had captured.
She answered truthfully, "The god of harvest."
The Archbishop of the Abyss frowned: "It feels very familiar."
Vivian smiled and said, "Of course you are familiar with her, after all, you are even more familiar with her name in this life."
The Archbishop of the Abyss asked, puzzled, "What's your name?"
"Vast and boundless."
Vivian spoke slowly and deliberately, seemingly trying to provoke the archbishop.
However, the archbishop suddenly had a headache, touched his temple, and vanished from the spot.
Cangmingru, this name... felt very familiar to him.
...
...
Meanwhile, Quan Ji and the others had arrived at the Tower of the Holy Spirit with Sophia.
The towering pagoda in front of me soars into the clouds, and looks exceptionally magnificent and sacred up close, with an incomparably surging vitality pulsating within it.
whoosh whoosh—
Sophia said, "We have arrived. According to the Holy Decree of the Elves, the Elven race is not allowed to enter the Holy Spirit Tower. Please make yourselves at home, Miss."
Quan Ji turned her head and glanced at Sophia, then reached out and grabbed her.
"You're a traitor to the elves, what are you doing following the rules? Come with us!"
Without any hesitation, she grabbed the princess by the shoulder and dragged her away.
She pinched it and wondered if the princess's shoulders were a bit too big... her frame was a bit too muscular, wasn't it?
The other elves were terrified at the sight, but they were afraid of Quan Ji and dared not make a move.
"Young Miss, please put the princess down!"
A golden glint flashed in Quan Ji's eyes as she took control of the group of elves.
"You all come along too!"
The elves were controlled and went inside with Quan Ji.
To keep things quiet, Quan Ji also made them shut up.
A group of people walked to the entrance of the Tower of the Holy Spirit, where there was a large door that looked like it required a key to open.
Quan Ji certainly didn't have the time to look for the key, so she came up with a good idea.
