Suddenly, it flared with brilliant light, revealing the state of his inner energy center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was rumoured that most people's energy cores had a distinct shape, usually spherical. But as Ethan observed his own, he realized something was very, very different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stretched endlessly in all directions, like a boundless void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They said the larger the core, the greater the potential. Did this mean he was some kind of prodigy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop flattering yourself. You don't even have an energy core, how could it have a shape?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morzan's blunt remark crushed his excitement in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Huh?\" Ethan blinked in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden seed floated within him, drifting until it reached a specific point. Then, it trembled twice and went still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was just about to ask what to do next when—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fine split appeared along the seed's shell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single root sprouted from the gap, extending downward. Under Ethan's stunned gaze, it embedded itself into the very void of his core, as if taking root in thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, two small green leaves emerged from the seed, unfurling gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait… Wasn't this supposed to be his life energy? How had it turned into a literal seed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now it was taking root in the empty space where his energy core was supposed to be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan had a hundred questions, but before he could voice any of them, a massive pull surged from the tiny sprout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All around him, an invisible force gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless wisps of faint green energy rushed toward him, surging into his body and flowing straight into the seedling. Wrapped in that dense energy, the tiny plant began to grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At an absurd speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It shot upward, extending along the space where his energy core should have been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan stared in shock and a hint of worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shock, because the growth speed was insane, like someone was forcing a sapling to mature overnight. Worry, because instead of thickening as it grew, the stem only became thinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time it reached his chest, it was as fine as a spider's silk strand, delicate and fragile, as if a mere touch could snap it in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Old man, what the hell is this?\" Ethan asked, his voice tinged with unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morzan had been watching closely. His eyes gleamed with excitement, though he kept his thoughts to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It sprouted… it actually sprouted… So this Vessel could nurture the Seed of Life after all…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was hope. For his old comrades, for everyone. The only question was… How far would this Tree of Life grow in five years?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he wasn't about to share any of that with Ethan. Instead, he simply scoffed, \"It's just a sprout. What's there to be surprised about? Hurry up and get back to leveling in the game.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan exhaled, releasing a faint green mist with his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morzan's nonchalant tone was enough to kill his curiosity. Pushing everything else aside, he refocused and opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What greeted him was a wrecked campsite; collapsed tents, scattered supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo, Victor, Celeste, and even Doe—who was currently just a floating soul, were all staring at him in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you gather your energy into your core?\" Victor asked. his brows furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Something like that,\" Ethan replied hesitantly. Even he wasn't sure what had just happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not like he could tell them there was a tree growing inside him. They'd think he was a damn monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's impossible. You didn't even—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doe had just started speaking when she froze. Her face drained of color, eyes wide in terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in that instant, an immense pressure crashed down on her, and a voice whispered coldly in her ear:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak another word, and I'll erase you from existence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time in years, despite being a wandering soul, Doe felt something eerily close to cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared at Ethan in pure disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who the hell was watching over this guy? That presence just now was terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only she knew Morzan couldn't actually do anything—that he was just bluffing, she might not have been so shaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…What's wrong?\" Leo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others also turned to Doe, curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah… I was just wondering,\" she quickly covered, \"how he figured out how to channel energy without any assistance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, was there supposed to be some secret method? Wasn't it just a matter of using his will to pull life energy into his core? That seemed obvious enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he didn't know was that he was missing something fundamental.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had ever seen how other warriors' bodies worked, he'd immediately notice the difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no energy pathways. Even an ordinary person had them. He had none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doe studied Ethan's expression. Yeah, he didn't even realize. Better to change the subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, enough of that. You two, get ready to move,\" she said. \"We've wasted three days in this dump, Celeste's curse mark shifted again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three days?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was stunned. He had completely lost track of time. This whole mission was about removing the curse mark on Celeste. Twelve other people were waiting on them to find a solution before their own time ran out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he'd wasted three whole days standing around?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan scratched his head, feeling guilty. \"That's on me. Let's move fast. I'll carry all your packs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a quick meal, the group set off again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time they neared their destination, it was already past ten at night. Doe, who had been scouting ahead, called out, \"We're close!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twelve straight hours of trekking had finally paid off. And it was all thanks to Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just because he was hauling everyone's gear, but because, while asking Doe how to control his life energy, he made an accidental discovery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he let his energy seep outward, vines, brambles, tree branches—every plant around him instinctively moved aside, clearing a path for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Ethan naturally took the lead, making travel much smoother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it wasn't like he had to do anything special. He just had to walk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to hacking through the undergrowth with machetes like Leo and Victor were doing, Ethan's method was ridiculously efficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twelve hours of uninterrupted movement later, the air around them thickened with mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doe glanced at the fog and nodded. \"This is the barrier we set when we left years ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She explained that it was designed to keep ordinary people from stumbling into danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of their team's spellcasters had created it, anyone who entered without the proper guidance would unknowingly find themselves turned back the way they came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the group couldn't help but be intrigued. A magic barrier that had been running for years without fading?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's some serious craftsmanship,\" Leo commented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doe smirked. \"Magic like this borrows from the wind, the water, the land itself. As long as it isn't critically damaged, it can run indefinitely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo raised a brow. \"Then why have most of the strongest barriers in history disappeared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor, who hadn't been paying much attention, suddenly looked over in surprise. \"Wait, you actually know about magic barriers? Which ones?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leo gave him a disdainful look. \"Ever heard of the Thousandfold Ward? The Executioner's Seal? The Plague Shroud? The Tenfold Lock? The Ninefold Riverbind?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others also stared at Leo, surprised. Since when was he this well-versed in magical theory?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Wait,\" Leo narrowed his eyes. \"None of you have heard of them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He studied their faces and suddenly came to a horrifying realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Don't tell me—none of you have read Legends of the Eternal War?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a second, the group almost took him seriously, until they realized what he was talking about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Victor clicked his tongue. \"The hell are you on about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others rolled their eyes. Leo had just lost all credibility.\u003C\u002Fp>",1321,"2026-06-02T11:41:20.825Z",1,"novelbin.me","6a3a169042bd8dd2ff8447a215fe8964777f08323091d3aa653150a324a370a9","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-148","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-146",946,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-cover.jpg"]
