"curse?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this word, even the night elves were completely baffled.
You see, they always thought the resentment here was naturally occurring, but Virgos are naturally sensitive to these kinds of forces. If she says it's a curse, then she must be right.
Nightfire frowned and walked to Fairy's side: "Great Virgo guardian, can you guide us in the right direction?"
Xianyin glanced at Yehuo but remained silent.
She is aloof.
Nightfire: "?"
Quan Ji frowned, suddenly remembering the Virgo's nature—being obsessed with appearances.
She smiled helplessly at Nightfire.
Nightfire: "?"
Then Quan Ji looked at Xian Yin: "Xian Yin, can you find the source of the curse?"
Xianyin shook her head: "The source of the curse is very difficult to find. Unless the person under the curse has direct contact with the source of the curse, the source of the curse will undergo subtle changes."
Quan Ji pondered for a moment, then spoke it aloud: "Is it possible that the source of the curse of resentment here is the same as that on the Night Elf race?"
Fairy Sound was surprised, then glanced at Nightfire, saw that face, and immediately turned to look at the little dark elves who were eating tree fruits with great enthusiasm.
"Let me experience the curse of the night elves."
She reached out her hand, and energy began to spread through the air, continuously touching the little night elves.
She closed her eyes and quickly concluded: "The source of the curses is indeed the same for both."
This is truly baffling.
"What kind of curse could have such a significant impact on both people and places?"
This is a difficult point to think about.
Knowing that Jun Chenlan silently said, "Little Night Elves, it seems the curse isn't deep enough. In other words, this curse... might be gradual, not something that's been applied continuously."
Feng Simian also began to ponder: "Perhaps it is some kind of item, or perhaps it is some kind of consumable, but consumables will disappear sooner or later. After a thousand years, it shouldn't still exist. Such a thing... has existed for a thousand years."
Sofia also joined the discussion: "Such a large-scale impact on the land and water..."
As Sophia spoke, everyone immediately seemed to have a sudden realization.
"water!"
They uttered the word at the same time, almost as if by coincidence.
Yes, only water has existed and been needed for thousands of years, affecting both living organisms and the soil.
Besides this, it's hard to name a second source of curse that could have such a significant impact.
The night elves were also surprised to hear this.
Immediately, Nightfire realized: "Speaking of which, there is indeed only one stream in the Great Rift Valley, which surrounds the entire valley. Whether we want to drink water or use water, we can only use the water in that stream. There is really no other way."
Quan Ji focused her mind, her voice icy: "Take us there."
To find out the truth, we need to conduct an on-site investigation.
Nightfire understood the importance of this matter and knew that if the problem truly lay with that stream, and the source of the curse was found, then the curse that had tormented their Night Elf race for thousands of years would surely disappear.
They are able to find a kind of liberation!
No one dared to stop, and they quickly headed towards their destination.
...
Arrive at the stream.
In front of you, water splashes against rocks, producing a clear and pleasant sound that brings a sense of enjoyment.
The stream in front of us is a rare pure and clear place in this great rift valley. It looks the cleanest, and you can do anything with it.
The night elves all thought the same way, so they protected this only clean stream very well, never littering or doing anything to pollute it.
Nightfire said, "If the elves really did curse this stream, we... wouldn't be able to react at all, because life here depends too much on this water. We've even long regarded this spring as the best sanctuary."
Quan Ji nodded: "Yes, if a curse was placed here, then the Elven race is indeed extremely vicious."
Nightfire continued, "This stream has a beautiful name."
Some people were curious: "What's the name?"
Nightfire felt a little ashamed, but still said it: "River of Life, isn't that a bit exaggerated?"
Everyone looked at the night fire, and a feeling they couldn't quite describe welled up inside them.
Whether they transformed from elves into night elves, they never forgot the principle of the preciousness of life.
The word "life" is the greatest affirmation for this river.
Quan Ji shook her head: "No, there is no river more suitable for the River of Life than this one. If this river is not cursed, then it has nourished the Night Elf race for thousands of years, and it is rightfully the River of Life."
Nightfire gave a wry smile: "Yeah."
If this river is cursed, it will be a huge blow to the entire Night Elf race.
Because they have the same feelings for this river as they would for their mother river.
Nightfire: "What should we do next?"
Xianyin remained silent.
Nightfire had a feeling that he might have offended this constellation guardian he had never seen before.
Quan Ji asked on their behalf, "What should they do next?"
Xianyin then spoke: "Let their bodies touch this river, the more the better."
Nightfire: "..."
He must have offended this fairy-like lady unintentionally.
He suddenly felt a tiny bit of guilt.
Of course, if he knew that he offended Miss Xianyin because he was ugly, he wouldn't feel so guilty.
Upon hearing Fairy's words, the night elves all began to squat down beside the River of Life in an organized and disciplined manner.
Nightfire shouted:
"I'll say three, two, one, everyone put your hands in together!"
Although I don't know why I do this, it seems to have a more ritualistic feel to it.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
As soon as the sound fell, dozens of night elves placed their hands into the River of Life.
It seems that nothing has changed.
However, at this moment, Xianyin's expression changed as she stared at a nearly invisible black light upstream.
"Just as I expected."
Everyone looked in that direction.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flew swiftly from the other side.
Soon, night fell, plunging the Great Rift Valley into complete chaos.
An ancient divine voice drifted over, far more powerful than any of the gods Quan Ji and the others had encountered before, except for the Moon Goddess.
The humanoid deity emerged from the lightning. He had dark skin, and his body was covered in glowing silver-white patterns. He was exceptionally handsome.
He spoke:
"Quan Ji...today, you will surely die!!!"
At that moment, the night elves were dumbfounded.
