Chapter 773: Please Begin Your Performance

"Still better not to."

Elisa shook her head.

"Although I don't know what you've experienced, or what you've obtained, but this thing called time is simply a pseudo-proposition for us witches, especially for you and me as Clan Leaders."

That's right.

Elisa and Lan Qingyou were the same—they were both ageless and undying existences.

And precisely because everyone was ageless and undying.

That was why Elisa would say this was a 'pseudo-proposition'.

Of course.

Although she said this verbally, Elisa still quite admired this guy Lan Qingyou.

Even though Elisa didn't know the specific implementation details of the time magic.

But looking at Lan Qingyou's previous research and the experiment she herself just experienced, she knew this magic definitely required one's own body to be cast.

Just like her own [Flesh and Blood Furnace].

"Although this talk of a pseudo-proposition does indeed hold true for you and me, isn't this also just limited to us? It's still quite effective on others."

Lan Qingyou said nonchalantly.

She had already thought of ideas like Elisa's during her previous research.

At that time, she had also hesitated for a bit somewhat disrespectfully.

But considering this magic was indeed very useful, she continued to research it.

However, Elisa didn't think so.

She just extended her index finger and wagged it in the air.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the moment you said this, apart from us, there are also some other people."

"Who?"

"Those people with the attributes of ageless, undying, and indestructible."

"Ah... this is indeed a loophole, but how many could there be in the entire world?"

"That's true."

Elisa understood.

As long as the quantity was rare, then this time magic was basically in an invincible position.

Or rather, this magic was exceedingly good for crushing weaker opponents.

At the very least, things like those abyssal monsters had no power to fight back against this magic at all.

As the Clan Leader of the White Witches, Elisa naturally had her own intelligence channels.

So she naturally also knew about the Throb Potion the Dark Witches used when hunting abyssal monsters.

Although she didn't know the specific name of the potion.

But just by having those dispatched observing White Witches look from afar and seeing those 'frozen' abyssal monsters, she knew what its effect was.

However, this wasn't all.

Lan Qingyou floated in the air with a leisurely look.

"Moreover, the experiment just now has already proven one thing."

"What thing?"

"And that is, this magic still works on you."

"..."

Some things really didn't need to be said so bluntly.

Elisa rolled her eyes at Lan Qingyou, then lowered her head to read her book, no longer paying attention to the other party.

And Lan Qingyou shrugged.

Then she returned to the desk and started writing and drawing again.

Now the magic had already been created.

At the same time, its feasibility had also been tested.

Then what came next was naturally to consolidate and develop this magic.

After all, up until now, Lan Qingyou had only created the three manifestation forms of time.

But this didn't represent the entirety of time magic.

Just like how fire element magic could be developed into magic like Fireball and Flame Shock.

So there could definitely be many interesting magic developed.

—

The wind outside blew wantonly.

The two inside the tent were completely silent.

In a flash, several days passed, and the mana turbulence also stopped last night.

Thus, on the second day, the two packed up their tents and continued heading towards their predetermined destination.

This flight took another nearly half a month.

On the third day after the end of the Mana Tide, Lan Qingyou and Elisa finally arrived at the destination of their trip.

"This is the place mentioned on the Emerald Tablet? Are you sure?"

Upon arriving at the destination, Lan Qingyou asked Elisa with a dumbfounded look.

"I can be sure."

Elisa nodded very solemnly, then together with Lan Qingyou, turned her head to look at the thing in front of them.

It was a tree with a jagged cross-section.

Clearly, this tree was forcefully snapped by brute strength.

Visually estimating, the diameter of this tree was about a hundred meters.

Although it looked very huge, for guys like Lan Qingyou who had seen even larger things, it couldn't be considered a big deal.

The main reason they were so surprised was that apart from this broken tree, there was nothing else in this place.

Or rather, this entire area was originally barren land for thousands of miles, without even a single weed.

Even the center of this broken tree was hollow.

A so-called hollow tree.

And precisely because of this.

That was why Lan Qingyou was slightly surprised upon seeing this tree.

Of course, the most crucial thing was still why this Emerald Tablet thing pointed its coordinates to here.

What deep meaning was inside it, what it wanted to convey, neither Lan Qingyou nor Elisa could understand.

"That thing, you should be able to see what it is, right?"

Elisa raised her chin slightly and asked Lan Qingyou.

However, Lan Qingyou shook her head.

"Although I can see it, it doesn't seem to be anything useful."

"Hm?"

"Hollow Tree, a broken tree whose central part has been hollowed out."

Lan Qingyou curled her lips.

"That's it?"

"That's it..."

"..."

Elisa lowered her head and fell into silence.

"Then what does this Emerald Tablet mean?"

"God knows."

Lan Qingyou rolled her eyes, then looked at the broken tree.

As the person who decoded this world artifact didn't know, she naturally knew even less.

"Then what do we do now, dig three feet into the ground?"

Elisa asked with her head raised.

After all, this thing pointed precisely to this place.

But this place had absolutely nothing.

The only broken tree was the kind of existence that looked unreliable.

Even the Tower Witch couldn't see through it.

Then there must definitely be a reason behind this.

Firstly, the Tower Witch definitely hadn't lied to her.

After all, even if she wanted to lie to her, there was no need to lie about this kind of matter.

Because it would be very easily exposed.

Or if the other party truly wanted to deceive her, she definitely wouldn't use this kind of clumsy method.

That meant there was definitely something she hadn't seen, or had missed.

And the only thing that could block their observation was probably only underground.

"That's a good idea, I also feel it's very likely buried underneath."

Lan Qingyou nodded.

Her and Elisa's thoughts were consistent, both feeling there was very likely something underground.

It was just that the difference between her and Elisa was that compared to the general 'underground', she felt it was more likely beneath the tree roots.

Thus, the two of them slowly walked over.

While walking, Lan Qingyou even asked.

"I'm not good at earth element magic, what about you?"

"Alright, I learned some before."

Elisa's answer made Lan Qingyou stop.

"Then please begin your performance..."
