The Arcane God Chapter 57 57: Echoes: The Sacred Tree [I]

Since it was harvest ti, many refiners and rchants would co to purchase the magical fruits when they were picked.

So no one was surprised by the arrival of these two n.

The two of them walked straight to the front of the magical tree, and the bulky man said to the other man. "Secondborn, this is the sacred tree. In this Elfin Woods, only this tree can bear magical fruits. And by the looks of it, it's the ti for its harvest. I want you to have a taste of it, Secondborn, maybe it will be of so help to you."

Daghr nodded with furrowed brows. The vertical line between his eyebrows was the effect of the magic crystal after he transford into a human shape.

It had been hundreds of years since the dragonborn's power base's had been stuck on the platinum-level. In order to find an opportunity to reach the diamond-level, he had been traveling all over the continent for nearly a hundred years.

He had been searching for rare sources of the essence of ether, such as magical fruits and relics and at the sa ti looking for powerful humans to hone his combat skills.

That was the reason he ca to the Birch village, an area known as the woods of the elves.

Legends had it that in the old days, this was the place where the ancient elves inhabited. But later, due to the strong rise of the humans and the dreads, the elves gradually disappeared from the elfin realm, and faded out of the continent entirely.

Now on the mainland, the only signs that could prove the existence of the ancient elves were the echoes of their nas and the relics they left behind.

In the recent tis, those ruins were all under the control of the high ranking dreads.

But that wasn't the only reason for his presence. He also ca to the Elfin Woods with a glimr of hope of finding so of the secrets to the mysteries of the ancient elves and probably find opportunities for his own advancent.

Although the ruins left by the elves were just so dilapidated buildings and so magical circles, the circles were very complicated.

So of them had been destroyed, but there were still several large circles in operation, beaming with great power.

After all, the dreads were not as smart as the humans. Although they occupied the region of the relics of the elves, they couldn't get any benefits from them. So they destroyed so of the remaining magic circles.

As for several larger magic circles, the dreads did not dare to touch them. They had seen how many high-level dreads had vanished after entering the vicinity of the magical circles.

Among them were gold-level dreads who were among the highest ranked powers among the dark forest dreads

After Daghr ca to the Elfin Woods, he first explored the destroyed magic circles but found nothing useful. Then he turned his attention to the large circles that still remained, but did not dare to enter the circles.

Just looking at the incomprehensible Elfin characters engraved on the stone wall outside the array, he shook his head and left in disappointnt.

After returning to the dread base in the dark forest, so high-ranking dreads inadvertently revealed to him that there was a magical tree on the other side of the forest which could be considered an Elfin wonder left by the vanished elves.

Because this tree could bear so kind of magical fruits which after eating could improve the power bases of the dreads after eating them.

When Daghr heard that, he was extrely surprised. He didn't expect to learn that there was a tree that bore magical fruits which was equivalent to low-level human essence crystals.

Although it wouldn't bear any effect on his powerbase, he was very interested in going there to see it for himself.

However, he was told that this magical tree was currently under the control of the humans, and it was not ideal to trespass.

But the Secondborn was very surprised. Wasn't the Elfin Woods inside the dark forest which belonged to the dreads? How could it be occupied by humans now?

Probably, it was because the tree was located at the edge of the dark forest which was very close to the human settlent. Or could it be for the fact that it was first discovered by the humans, hundreds of years ago, and had since been guarded by them?

In addition, although the magical fruits could bring so help to the low-level dreads in terms of their power bases, compared to the large magic circle left by the elves, the value of the magical tree was far less.

And because the large circles could gather the surrounding energy to maintain their normal operations, if anyone harness ether around the circle, it would be faster and more helpful than eating the magical fruits.

Those magical fruits were only useful to so low-level dreads.

Due to these reasons, the high-level dreads, who had attain higher intelligence and transformation, did not go against the humans for the possession of the tree. Since they had the Elfin magic circles, why should they bother with the tree?

The only ones who would suffer for it were the low-level dreads who couldn't make use of the magical circles. The magical fruits would have been beneficial to them.

Daghr nodded after hearing this. But then he thought: since they've told him about the tree, and he was here, why not go and see. Maybe there could be sothing about the tree that could help him.

So he asked the leader of the dark forest dreads to lead him to the place. That was why he ca to the Birch village.

Coincidentally, the ti of visit of the dragonborn to the Birch tribe, was the ti for harvesting the magical fruits. The people of the Birch tribe were setting up a huge picking rack under the tree. Besides the rack were baskets of freshly picked magical fruits.

The dark forest's dread leader walked over to one of the baskets and took a handful of magical fruit. He looked at them carefully and extended his hand to Daghr, "Secondborn, these are so magical fruits that were just picked. Please, try them."

The dragonborn nodded in agreent. He picked up a few fruits and threw them into his mouth. When he realized the deliciousness and efficacy of the magical fruits, he nodded again and smiled lightly.

When the bulky dread saw that the Secondborn was happy, he celebrated in his mind. It seed that his decision to accompany the dragonborn today was not in vain.

He knew that if he could be in favor of this son of the dread leader, then it would definitely improve his future status among the dreads

Thinking of this, the dread said gently. "Secondborn, if you like it, I'll get you so more and take them back with us."
