Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 630 - 553: 3 Authorities - Perfect Resurrection
In the ruins of the Waldri race, Kane and the others have already obtained the most important information they needed from the mouth of the Giant Wood Elder.
However, they did not leave at this time, but continued to stay at the center of the ruins.
Because besides the information they needed, there was another matter now.
"Come on, Wofas, go into the center of the Mother Tree."
The Giant Wood Elder spoke, leading Wofas and Kane into the center of this exceptionally large tree in front of them.
Since this Mother Tree was already dead, the entire tree had become a piece of dead wood, so there was a huge crack in the center.
They entered the central part along the crack.
The further they went in, the more they could feel a strong breath of life coming through.
A bit of green light seeped out from the gap.
Kane and the others followed the gap to the source of the green light, where they saw a green seed that had already sprouted.
Just from the appearance, one could tell that this was no ordinary seed, as it was larger than Kane's entire body.
It was imaginable how gigantic it would be when this seed truly grew.
Although the seed looked a bit withered, the vigorous vitality it carried was not deceptive; this seed was still alive.
Since it grew here and was referred to by the Giant Wood Elder as the hope of the Waldri race, it was self-evident.
If nothing unexpected happened, this seed was surely the seed of the Mother Tree.
"This seed is our last hope, the last seed of hope left by the Mother Tree."
Indeed.
Wofas heard the Giant Wood Elder's words and walked over, gently placing a hand on the seed, feeling the rhythm of life this last hope brought.
Not just the rhythm of life, but also the hope of living.
Then he gently cradled it with both hands, acting extremely carefully, as if afraid of disturbing this seed in front of him.
"The nurturing of the Mother Tree requires very strict and demanding conditions. Originally, I had no hope, because the world is about to be destroyed, the entire world is in decline without any energy to supply and I cannot leave this area."
"Your arrival gave me a sliver of hope."
"When I knew you were going to take down the Golden Bridge and save this world, the hope grew even bigger. As long as the world can recover, the Mother Tree will definitely grow again."
The Giant Wood Elder said joyfully.
For thousands of years, he had never been happier than today, as if all the hardships had reached their end.
Hope seemed to begin to grow from here.
The blood feud was avenged, the culprit was about to be destroyed, and hope for the continuation of the race was achieved.
Each of these things was more inspiring than the last.
"Come on, Wofas, listen to me carefully."
Then, the Giant Wood Elder began to explain the nurturing, growth, and all future needs of the seed.
A multitude of various requirements and issues filled Wofas's mind, but for the continuation of the race, he had to remember them.
"You're in a spiritual body now, aren't you? Why are you in such a hurry? There will be time later, right?" Lilu asked in some confusion beside him.
Hearing Lilu's words, the Giant Wood Elder smiled and said, "Little girl, I don't have time anymore, I am maintaining this spiritual body solely because this seed is still here.
Now it needs to be picked up and taken away, and I'm about to leave soon, I can no longer stay here, consuming the energy of the seed."
"Is that so?" Lilu tilted her head, carefully observing the spiritual body of the Giant Wood Elder in front of her.
"A very fragile soul, persevering with energy and will, how tough it is."
Lilu observed the spiritual body of the Giant Wood Elder in front of her and said.
The Giant Wood Elder was surprised to see that this natural child in front of him could see through his current state at a glance.
"Then let Lilu help you." Saying this, a ghostly green gemstone began to float beside Lilu.
It was the Soul Stone Lilu obtained from the Gray Monarch.
Since Lilu obtained this gemstone, Kane and the others had not seen the authority of the gemstone used, nor did they know what effect it could actually produce.
Then the Soul Stone shone brightly, indicating that Lilu was using the authority on this Platinum Staff Fragment.
The ghostly green light shone on the body of the Giant Wood Elder.
Subsequently, the spiritual body, like a transparent holographic three-dimensional image, under the gentle Authority of the Soul, transformed to resemble Kreya in her soul state.
The Giant Wood Elder looked at the changes on his body, extending his hand woven from tree vines, and carefully examined and clenched it.
"My soul body has been restored, just as if I have just died."
Hearing the Giant Wood Elder's words, Kreya also began to carefully observe: "A soul body as if just recently deceased? Let me give it a try too."
Lilu's use of authority just now inspired Kreya too, and he also prepared to use the Authority of Death to reverse life and death.
With that, a black gemstone floated beside Kreya.
Obtained from the Black Monarch, it was a fragment of the Platinum Scepter imbued with the Authority of Death.
The black gemstone emitted a black light, igniting the unique black and white flames belonging to Kreya, which transmitted through the air onto the spiritual body of the Giant Wood Elder.
The Giant Wood Elder, who had not yet fully reacted to the changes in his spiritual body, was enveloped by the black and white flames, a little panicked.
However, these black and white flames did not harm his soul, but were rather restructuring something.
As the flames extinguished, the Giant Wood Elder's soul appeared unchanged.
Yet, it gave off a different feeling.
Kane observed the soul of the Giant Wood Elder, frowning as he pondered, trying to organize his words to express the changes before him.
Alive, yes, that's it; alive.
The previous soul was the soul of death, but the current soul seems to be a living soul.
It's similar to a ghost formed after the body dies, and a soul that leaves the body due to skills or certain abilities. Though they look alike, the essential difference is significant.
Looking at the current situation.
Kreya and Lilulu turned their heads to look at Longbei, who seemed curious as if observing some novelty.
Longbei sensed someone looking at him, turned his head towards the two, with a perplexed expression: "Why are you staring at me?"
His expression, aside from confusion, also showed a hint of puzzlement and incomprehension.
Kane now somewhat understood Kreya's and Lilulu's thoughts: "There is a legend about the King of Platinum, that he can resurrect the dead, dispelling hardships."
This is a line from the epic poem about the King of Platinum.
Upon hearing Kane's words, Longbei stared blankly at him, seemingly without a reaction.
Feeling everyone's gaze on him, Longbei finally understood. He realized what those two were attempting earlier, and finally came to a realization, patting his forehead.
"Oh, so it was like that, why didn't you speak up? You could have just said it, seriously."
Longbei grumbled, clearly displeased with Kreya, Lilulu, and the others' riddle-like actions.
Then a white gemstone also began to float beside him.
Recently, to restore the bodies of those malformed reformers in the White King Territory, he had become more skilled in wielding the authority of the white gemstone.
Light burst forth from the white gemstone.
Bright mist emanated from the gemstone, overflowing with vitality as it poured into the soul of the Giant Wood Elder.
As the mist flowed in, the soul of the Giant Wood Elder gradually solidified as if shifting from a soul body to reality.
The grayish-white soul body slowly gained color, with moss of dark green spreading over the brown trunk, intertwined with green vines.
Various wildflowers bloomed on the vines, the branches and leaves on his body exuded a verdant luster, and vitality blossomed anew upon him.
Apart from Kane and the others, Mo Yi and Wofas also watched this scene in a daze.
The Giant Wood Elder stood there silently, gazing at his body without uttering a word.
Kane observed this moment, gaining a clearer understanding of authority.
The coordination of three authorities brought to life the resurrection spoken of in the King of Platinum's epic poem.
Moreover, it's evident that the resurrection effect is remarkably exaggerated.
However, this scene reminded Kane of something, causing him to squint slightly, pondering over something unknown.
This resurrection effect surpasses about sixty to seventy percent of the resurrection items available on the Explorer market.
Most resurrection items used by explorers do not achieve this effect, although some items are even more extraordinary than this.
Yet, with such extraordinary effects comes exorbitant prices and an extraordinary rarity, hard to come by even once in a century.
Kreya, Lilulu, and Longbei utilized their respective authorities to achieve a true resurrection for the Giant Wood Elder.
Although such resurrection can only affect the original life of this dungeon.
Now the three of them gaze at the gemstones beside them, seemingly undergoing a deeper understanding.
"This truly is... a miracle."
The Giant Wood Elder no longer knew what to say or how to express what he had just experienced, except with the word 'miracle'.
"Hehe, no need to worry now, right?" Lilulu said with a mischievous smile beside him.
Facing Lilulu's words, the Giant Wood Elder smiled and replied: "Indeed, no need to worry now."
Wofas beside them was also very pleased, now having a new clan member.
Finally, he was not alone anymore, and there was new hope for saving their race.
[Link with Wofas]
The bonding link message appeared before Kane's eyes.
Kane merely smiled.
He looked at the newly resurrected Giant Wood Elder: "So, Elder, what do you plan to do now?"
The Giant Wood Elder gazed at Kane before him, having learned about external information through a prior exchange with Wofas, he already understood the identity of these people, knowing Kane was their leader.
He took a few steps forward to stand before Kane, holding a large wooden staff composed of intertwined deadwood.
With one hand grasping the staff, his vine-cord entwined legs formed a single knee as if kneeling, making him shorter before Kane.
"I pledge my loyalty to you, Majesty, offering my allegiance, only hoping you can help us restore the Mother Tree and revive our clan."
Watching the Giant Wood Elder's sudden behavior surprised Kane, but he nodded and said: "Of course, I promise."
Upon hearing Kane's words, the Giant Wood Elder then stood, proceeding to stand before Wofas, and with both hands retrieved the seed of the Mother Tree.
Then a fissure slowly appeared in his massive form, with the seed floating towards his body, being tucked within him.
"The last hope, requires careful preservation."
The Giant Wood Elder said with a cheerful laugh, making a joke in his good spirits.
Then he approached Kane's side, saying: "Let's go, Majesty. I shall accompany you, offering my protection."
The purpose of coming to this relic has been accomplished, even gaining more than expected, now it's time to depart.
Everyone retraced their steps, leaving the ruins.
With another ripple of water, they emerged into the outside world, now including a massive tree-man compared to when they left.
Glancing at the forest behind them, the Giant Wood Elder waved his staff.
Kane could feel the forest becoming even more hidden.
Now to ensure absolute security, they need to head to the Moon's Child relic.
