Another World’s Versatile Crafting Master

Although there was no such thing as eternity in this world, the Tree of Eternity was known for its endless vitality. Even if what everyone saw here was just a Seed of Eternity, it was impossible for it not to contain any trace of life, unless it was already dead.

Although the amount of mana that the seed emitted continuously was still terrifyingly large, everyone could sense that its mana was deteriorating. This meant that the Seed of Eternity was merely emitting its previously accumulated mana, but couldn’t generate any new mana now. As such, no matter how powerful its mana was, it would eventually be totally depleted.

The question that puzzled everyone was thus easily answered. No wonder the remaining High Elves didn’t use the Seed of Eternity to revive the Tree of Eternity. How could a dead seed grow into a tree?

Lin Li frowned. This dead seed had gotten him excited for nothing, since it could never grow into the Tree of Eternity anyway. However, why did the Immortal King choose to put the dead Seed of Eternity here?

After realizing that the Seed of Eternity was already dead, Chief Elder Randy and Cheyenne finally felt life to be a bit more fair. Although the Seed of Eternity contained a large amount of mana, a dead Seed of Eternity was no more than a magical crystal with very large mana capacity. So what if it could allow a person to recover his mana quickly? The true value of the Seed of Eternity was already lost.

The Tree of Eternity had the terrifying power that created the High Elves, who ruled over Anril for countless years. It could even create another powerful faction that could leave the entire continent shaking in fear. However, life was still fair, and didn’t give anyone such a heaven-defying advantage.

However, Lin Li’s knitted brows relaxed after a short while. He didn’t look disappointed like what everyone expected. Chief Elder Randy and Cheyenne couldn’t help admiring this young mage’s breadth of mind. No wonder he could accomplish so much at this age.

Lin Li didn’t look down on the dead Seed of Eternity. After careful inspection, he threw it into the Ring of Endless Storm. Unlike what a lot of people would think, Lin Li wasn’t too sad about getting a dead seed, because he believed that the Immortal King wouldn’t do something like this for nothing.

Lin Li had a feeling that everything he had experienced since coming to Anril was somehow related to the Immortal King. Although he wouldn’t say that everything he had experienced had been planned by the Immortal King, he knew that a lot was definitely linked to the Immortal King.

No matter what the Immortal King was planning, Lin Li was sure that he had a reason behind what he did. Since the Seed of Eternity was placed here, then the method of rebirth should also be left here by the Immortal King. Now, he just had to be careful and clever enough to discover it.

Even if there wasn’t any way to rejuvenate the Seed of Eternity, the seed was still extremely useful to Lin Li. Just the mana in the seed alone could let the baby Elemental Wyrm almost reach adulthood.

The baby Elemental Wyrm Xiao Hua was the successor of one of the five Dragon Aspects: the Dragon of Dream. Even if it couldn’t fully mature from absorbing the mana from the seed, its power would still match that of an ancient dragon. By then, Xiao Hua would have become a super strong fighter. Who would dare to offend Lin Li then? The only thing he had to be careful of was that projected avatar that was always lingering inside Xiao Hua’s body.

Till now, Lin Li was still not sure what kind of presence the projected avatar was inside Xiao Hua’s body. The only thing he could do was to be highly alert since he couldn’t think of any way to eliminate this potential threat.

After Lin Li put away the Seed of Eternity, the third floor hall was truly empty. Even the overwhelming mana that had radiated from the seed would disappear over time.

Stepping out of the hall, the team walked towards the fourth floor of the tower. Almost everyone’s face was beaming with anticipation. From the crystal ball and the three sets of magical equipment from the Magic Legion to the Seed of Eternity, the items seemed more and more valuable as they went up the tower. Although the Seed of Eternity was dead, its value still couldn’t be underestimated. What kind of treasure awaited them on the fourth floor?

Even Chief Elder Randy, who was the most disappointed person out of all, summoned up his energy once again and anticipated what the fourth floor would offer. After all, everyone got something on the first three floors, but from the fourth level onwards, everything depended on their own abilities.

The elves were the wealthiest out of all, especially Chief Elder Randy who was one of the eight elders of the Emerald Council. Hence, he had immense decisive power over a lot of areas. If he really had to, he wouldn’t hesitate to dump loads of money.

As for the Tower of Dusk, although it was a small faction that was newly established, its president Lin Li’s abilities seemed to be the top out of the three factions after he had shot the three arrows.

Only Cheyenne from the Malfa Family seemed to be in an awkward position. Although the Malfa Family was given the title of the strongest family in the Breezy Plains, its wealth was certainly no match for the elves’, and its power no match for the Tower of Dusk’s. However, Cheyenne was already very satisfied with the magical equipment that he had gotten from the second floor. If there was really some surprising treasure on the upper floors, it would be good enough to get some benefits for the faction by using his power.

Although everyone had their own considerations, they had similar anticipation for the treasure on the fourth floor. This was because no matter whether they could get it themselves, the higher the value of the treasure was, the more benefits they could get from it.

However, when everyone reached the fourth floor of the Central Tower, they were again stunned by what they saw.

There weren’t any splendid decorations, but only an old storehouse that seemed thousands of years old. It was filled with thick white fog, making it hard for people to make out what was hidden in it.

Looking at it from the door, the thick fog seemed to be constrained by something. Not even a tinge went beyond a certain unseen border, clearing a straight path towards the front.

A lone stone platform stood at the end of the path. On the stone platform, a crystal ball floated in the midair, slowly revolving.

Although the crystal ball was much bigger than the ones people usually saw, it was no match to the one Chief Elder Randy had gotten on the first floor. Moreover, judging from its slow revolving motion, it seemed to be operating normally.

On the other hand, people couldn’t see through the white fog on the sides of the path. They couldn’t even penetrate the fog with their mental strength. However, they could sense all kinds of peculiar but extremely powerful aura seeping out from the fog. The team carefully walked along the path towards the stone platform.

When the team reached the front of the stone platform, they heaved a sigh of relief, and focused their vision on the crystal ball. Different scenes flashed in the crystal ball, as if displaying different domains. In each domain, there was only a magical beast or Abyssal Demon that was dead asleep.

By then, everyone finally realized that the fourth floor of the Central Tower was a jail. The thick surrounding white fog should be the cells that locked these Abyssal Demons away. This jail should have made use of some space-enlarging effect. If not, so many different Abyssal Demons would not have been able to fit into this space.

Since they could see what the situation was like in every cell via the crystal ball, the crystal ball was evidently controlling all these cells. However, what was the use of that? Although these Abyssal Demons were powerful creatures, they could only act as additional fighters. How much could these demons contribute to the development of their factions?

However, just as the team was disappointed with this crystal ball, Chief Elder Randy suddenly exclaimed in surprise. Without any explanations, he quickly moved near the crystal ball.

It was very easy to use a crystal ball—one just had to inject some mental strength into it. This crystal ball left behind by the High Elves was no different. Chief Elder Randy placed a finger on the crystal ball and injected his mental strength. The images on the crystal ball flashed across rapidly, and finally fixed onto one.

Looking at the fixed image on the crystal ball, Chief Elder Randy couldn’t hide his excitement. Even his finger that was resting on the crystal ball was trembling slightly. Upon seeing Chief Elder Randy’s bizarre reaction, Princess Elune and the other elves came over too. Once they saw what was shown on the crystal ball, they were all jaw-droppingly surprised.

The crystal ball showed one of the many creatures locked in the cells. However, it wasn’t any of the Abyssal Demons, but a pure-white unicorn with a silver spiral horn and white wings tucked behind its back.

“Yes, this is the sacred item we are looking for: Goddess Monferra’s mount—the sacred unicorn.” Chief Elder Randy tried hard to suppress his excitement, but his voice still trembled.

Hearing Chief Elder Randy’s words, everyone couldn’t help but feel curious. Since this unicorn was Goddess Monferra’s mount, why would it be jailed in this place? After all, this was the High Elves’ Sky Castle. According to elven legends, Goddess Monferra was riding her unicorn when she helped the desperate elves. At that time, the High Elves had already perished.

There were many legends regarding the plight of the elves circulating around now. Not mentioning the Legendary powerhouses, even farmers knew a thing or two about the elves. However, probably only Chief Elder Randy and the elves themselves knew what the real situation was like then.

According to legends, under the pursuit of the human coalition army, the elves didn’t have any living space in the whole of Anril. The remaining elves could only escape to the Sierra Leone Forest.

Back then, the Sierra Leone Forest used to be the place where people were sent for exile during the High Elves’ reign. Countless powerhouses died there and it was dangerous, even fatal. The forest was filled with poisonous fog. Even the strongest Legendary powerhouse couldn’t resist its poison. There were stinky and fatal poisonous swamps, powerful magical beasts, and even fierce carnivorous plants.

That was a place more terrifying than the Endless Abyss. There was not a single safe spot, the whole forest was filled with fatal traps of nature. At any time, a magical beast could pounce towards you. Even if one was just standing near a tree, the person could risk being strangled by its vines and becoming the carnivorous plant’s fertilizer.

With a human army that had just overthrown the High Elves’ rule wanting to wipe out the elves at the back, and the Sierra Leone Forest which no one had walked out from alive in front, the elves were faced with totally hopeless situation with nowhere to go.

However, just when the elves were driven to the depths of desperation, Goddess Monferra performed a miracle. The elves saw the goddess slowly going into the Sierra Leone Forest while riding her unicorn. In every place that this sacred unicorn had stepped, the thick poisonous fog disappeared like melting snow. The poisonous land was transformed into fertile land. When the unicorn walked past, those carnivorous plants lost their decaying form and green sprouts emerged. Those magical beasts also didn’t dare to expose their sharp teeth and claws. They brought their bodies close to the ground, and their red eyes gradually became clear.

In the sky, the looming dark clouds were penetrated by beams of sacred light. The light followed the steps of the unicorn; more and more light beams appeared until the dark clouds vanished, and the entire Sierra Leone Forest was bathed in the goddess’s glory. The dark, decaying colors of the Sierra Leone Forest were replaced by a vibrant green. Grass emerged out of the soil and wild flowers instantaneously bloomed across the forest, sending waves of fragrance into the air. Under the goddess’s glory, the entire Sierra Leone Forest was brimming with vitality.

From then, the Sierra Leone Forest, once known was the Land of Despair, had a new name: Emerald Forest.

However, the unicorn disappeared after that. No one knew where the unicorn had gone. They only knew that it hadn’t left with Goddess Monferra. In fact, the reason Chief Elder Randy and the elves could find their way here was because the Goddess had left a clue for them.

Chief Elder Randy tapped the crystal ball gently. A ripple appeared on the image on the crystal ball. Then, a unicorn slowly walked out from the thick fog not far from where the team was standing with the crisp sound of its hooves.
