Chapter 938: Chapter 671: Outstand in Many Ways (Part 2)

The little elf had drawn upon Zheng Yichen’s Life Force, and under the influence of the elf tree that could envelop the entire Elven Holy Land, she broke free from her own shackles and underwent a change or evolution. The source of their transformation was Zheng Yichen’s Life Force, and the changes that occurred did not come from nothing.

Zhen Yichen’s abilities were what allowed them to undergo the corresponding changes.

As for Denas’s words, Reyasti responded with a faint smile. She already understood about the little elf’s transformation through the elf tree.

That sort of natural anger equated to a Curse, but this Curse was limited to the little elves associated with the elf tree.

It would only be effective in the areas where these little elves resided.

Intruders who came to the Elven Holy Land and caused destruction would bear the corresponding ’Curse of Nature,’ but this curse was rather weak compared to Zheng Yichen’s inherent power.

Even so, it made these little elves special; they were no longer the mascot-like creatures that could only be cute and playful in their daily frolicking.

Strictly speaking, this was akin to the little elves stealing Zheng Yichen’s power with the help of the elf tree, so they should directly inform the person concerned.

However, Zheng Yichen didn’t seem to care too much.

"Alright, let’s discuss the important matters, about the inheritance plan..." Denas brought up the real issue at hand. Their main purpose for coming this time was to obtain a sufficient amount of Spring Water of Life, as Zheng Yichen currently needed a great deal of Life Force to replenish himself.

Hunting was a good method, but Spring Water of Life was an even better way to supplement Life Force and had no side effects. It wasn’t easy to obtain such a thing.

After all, Spring Water of Life was only one word different from Water of Life but the difference in effect was vast. One drop of Spring Water of Life diluted a thousand times and sold was called Water of Life.

The amount of Spring Water of Life that the elf race exported each year was very little, which indicated how rare it was.

They were planning to get several dozen pounds of Spring Water of Life depending on how much Zheng Yichen could handle.

They were here to ask for something, but they were not begging. Conversely, the elf race had to negotiate well with the Dragon Tribe on some matters. The elf race wasn’t considered weak in this world, but saying they were very formidable wasn’t quite accurate either.

They could only maintain a strong state within their sphere of influence.

Getting the elf race involved in the Impartation Crystal creation plan was very important for them, but the Dragon Tribe allowing them to join wasn’t just about obtaining enough Spring Water of Life.

That was just a side benefit for Zheng Yichen; it was about them giving less later on when they participate in the Impartation Crystal creation plan, but they couldn’t give any less than what was required.

The elf race also had unique knowledge and technology, especially in life-related technology; they were quite unique. After all, some elves were born from fruits, transitioning from plant to flesh and blood, and they had strong growth potential.

Such technology could ensure that the Impartation Crystals had sufficient growth potential.

The importance and potential of such an object were great, so since they were going to create it, they would do it to the best of their ability.

Of course, since the elf race was joining late, they could receive the finished Impartation Crystals, but if the elf race wanted to obtain the true core technology, that would depend on whether their contributions were sufficient.

So even though they took the initiative to come forward, the weaker party was still the elf race, and the elf race’s need for Impartation Crystals concerned their racial situation.

Elves, both male and female, were very popular. Seen by many as perfect slaves due to their natural aura, and their uniqueness, there were even evil Pharmacists who used elf blood to create special longevity Magic Potions.

Such Magic Potions had a market in the black market, so Secret Techniques and Magic to capture them were endless, and it wasn’t just the human race that was after them, but other alien races as well.

The Dragon Tribe didn’t have much interest in this, partly because of aesthetic preferences and partly because they already lived longer than elves, so what others desperately needed held no allure for the Dragon Tribe.

Contrarily, some crafts made by the elves were very popular with the dragons, such as the gilded beds that spanned hundreds of square meters...

The elf race required even more special strength to counteract the Secret Techniques and dark spells targeted against them. Their investment in this area had always been significant, similar to the ongoing battle between antivirus software and viruses—if the antivirus software isn’t updated, the viruses become rampant.

Even when the antivirus software is updated, the viruses can occasionally cause havoc. Under the immense incentives, those who captured elves would also invest heavily in researching those Secret Techniques and dark spells tailored against the elves.

The elves have always wanted to thoroughly resolve this issue, and now they have a way: the Oath Power associated with the Impartation Crystals allows elves to take oaths to deal with slave-capturing squads, even if targeted by those Secret Techniques aimed at elves.

They could directly switch to using Oath Power to deal with the crisis.

As for whether the human race would use Oath Power to in turn restrict the Oath Power of the elven race, that would depend on the management of the Luminous Church.

The Dragon Tribe truly had no interest in elven slaves.

"Please, follow me," Reyasti said, immediately adopting a serious demeanor upon addressing the matter at hand.

They went directly to the most important place in the Elven Holy Land, the region where the Elven Tree stood—a towering tree over three hundred meters tall. Majestic indeed, yet it was somewhat different from what Zheng Yichen had imagined.

If it was such a formidable tree, surely a height of just over three hundred meters didn’t seem sufficient?

During his time in the Great World, he had seen too many colossal trees exceeding a kilometer in height.

Compared to those giants, the Elven Tree looked quite miniature... like a little loli sister.

On the tree, one could see many little elves perched. Those little elves on the tree were like mosquitoes in the summer—Zheng Yichen figured that when they all flew together, there would definitely be a very distinct buzzing noise.

Afterward, Zheng Yichen noticed the newly arrived red little elves also flying near the Elven Tree. Some normal little elves curiously looked at their companions who had changed skin, but soon put the differences in clothes, wings, and eye color out of their minds, and started frolicking together.

Zheng Yichen, looking at the Elven Tree before him, nodded and said to Reyasti, "I’m just here to drink water."

"Although the elf race releases only a small amount of Spring Water of Life annually to the outside world, there’s quite a lot accumulated here within the Holy Land. Within the standards of safety, you can take as much as you like," Reyasti explained.

To the elf race, the Spring Water of Life was a very important resource. However, the Dragon Tribe’s Impartation Crystal project had an even larger impact on the elf race. The problem was that the elves were at a disadvantage in this regard and would have to play by others’ rules if they wanted to join.

After all, the project didn’t just involve the Dragon Tribe but also the Luminous Divine type.

However, although the elf race held a weaker position in this matter, they were not so disadvantaged as to grovel and beg. They might not match the Dragon Tribe and the Luminous Divine type, but compared to the entire elf species, they were certainly not weak.

"Then I won’t be shy," Zheng Yichen said.

Zheng Yichen didn’t yet know the quantity of the elf race’s Spring Water of Life, but after seeing the reserves through the Elven Tree, he was reminded of vibranium from a movie: rare to the outside world, but in its ’place of origin,’ used liberally.

The elf race’s Spring Water of Life was the same.

"This is the accumulation of thousands of years of the elf race," Denas noticed the subtle expression on Zheng Yichen’s face and immediately commented, "It’s only because the elf race hasn’t experienced any major events; otherwise, this stuff would be consumed very quickly."

The accumulation of thousands of years, a pond with a fountain—this was the place where the Elven Holy Land stored the Spring Water of Life. In comparison to the outside world’s use of the Spring Water one gram at a time, the stock here truly stood out as much more plentiful!
