Chapter 542 540:Curing World Tree
Alex walked on the stairs leading to the raised platform built around World Tree.
He inhaled deeply and placed his hand on the darkish tree trunk. His eyes became black and stars started to shine behind his back.
His consciousness pierced deep into the World Tree.
Travelling inside the World Tree, Alex found a tainted woman with half of her body in black who seems to be in slumber.
Particles of green and golden light were fluttering around here trying to keep the darkness away.
The lady who was half asleep opened her eyes and muttered in a weak voice.
"Warrior!"
Alex's figure materialised in semi-corporeal form and he asked"Are you the spirit of the world tree."
"Umm!"The woman gave a weak nod.
"How did they do this to you?"
"That! Someone who visited here planted the seed of darkness."She replied.
Alex followed her gaze and saw a dark burning flame that was eating away the World Tree's vitality and converting it into something sinister.
Alex stared at her eyes filled with expectations and spoke with a smile"Don't worry?"
"It's quite easy. This thing that is corroding you will be a source of my power."
Alex muttered and waved his hand.
The seed of darkness flew towards him and merged with him in the semi-corporeal state.
Alex in the real world opened his eyes.
His hand became dark and his Stars started to shine brightly, he just received a huge boost and his power skyrocketed.
He could feel the barrier to unlocking the 9 Star weakening however he felt a suppression.
It was as if The Entire World was against him and trying to suppress him.
"Damn you..."Alex cursed as his powers started to stabilise and he was not able to unlock the 9 Star.
The darkness in the world tree slowly started to suck into Alex and dried branches and leaves started to fall.
The Elf King and the elders of the tribe stared at the scene with disbelief.
"Oh, my God!"
"Finally."They exclaimed in joy while shedding tears of happiness.
"Saintess!"
Penelope nodded and stepped forward.
An otherworldly glow radiated from her body as if a sun had appeared beside her.
With a blinding flash, the entire Elf forest was covered with a bright light.
Penelope did not hold back and used all her divinity.
The World Tree shook as various branches started to sprout from the main trunk and leaves started to form.
Alex, who was looking at the scene, suddenly heard a voice.
[Thank you, My Child, for reviving the World Tree.]
"Hmmm!"Alex snorted and spoke.
"I went through so much trouble but as I was about to break through, the world suppressed me. What do you have to say?"
[That...Did you forget that Darkness is incompatible with this world? The creature of Darkness also suffers from this suppression. You are a being of this world so you did not feel much suppression however the stronger you get, the more suppression you will feel.]
"Then what about the creatures of Darkness? How do they overcome this?"Alex asked.
[They have undergone inhumane experiments and those who are in the God stage could negate the effect of the suppression]
"I see."
"Still, what about my mental damage?"
[Huhn....]
"As I was unable to break through, my mind was shaken and in a mess. You need to compensate me for mental damage."
[You are still as shameless as ever...]
"The real shameless ones are you all. How dare you accuse me of shamelessness."
[What do you want?]
"Ask the Elves to fight alongside. Even the top powerhouse is not exempted from it."
[Are you going to wage a full-fledged war?]
"You don't need to know or you might already know all this."
Alex broke the communication and walked towards Hindell.
"I have kept mine so it's time to keep your promise and yeah you can speak with World Tree Spirit if you want."
......
"What?"
With a loud bang, the table shattered into pieces.
"Kinley declared full-scale war against Demons."The King of Dark Elves shouted in anger.
"Wasn't that bastard named Alex came here to oversee things so why did this happen?"
"His Highness, let's talk about that later."
"Their troops have already taken over three Defence Lines. If they carry one like this, we will be the ones who will be in trouble."A member of the Council spoke.
"Demons still have their core members at the centre of the Northern continent which is vast and barren. The troops of Kinley will surely not March on the death land so there are chances of them turning their attention to us."
"Damn!'The Dark Elf king cursed in anger.
"Just when everything was going well? The World Tree was soon going to be corrupted and The Elves would then succumb to the darkness and then become like us."
"We would soon have our revenge but this bug...This damned bug appears in our way."
"I heard that this power rivals the Saint realm so should not be stopped from interfering."
The Dark Elf pondered for a moment and said"He is the one who is behind all of this."
"It seems having the power of the Saint realm at a young age might have made him proud. Killing him will destroy Kinley's morale."
"Relay my orders."
"All the clans prepare for war."
"Send Supreme Realm experts and ask them to kill Alex and send support to keep humans at bay."
"Let's just slaughter the entire human army."
"The Elves are busy mending the World Tree so I am sure they would not make a move even if the situation outside is quite a mess."
"If they make a move ask our informants to send messages if Elves decide to move.
"Yes, Your Highness. We will carry out your orders faithfully."
Everyone left except the Dark Elf king who stared at the ceiling blankly.
'Why did the situation turn around so fast?'
'And why did those members of the Omen disappear at a time like this?'
I hope they are not cooking something against us.'
