Upon closer inspection, he discovered the reason the sky was bright was due to a large tree growing here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A huge amount of black aura was absorbed by the tree and eventually disappeared underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearby, many lettuces were planted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, it looks like a vegetable garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, Gu Xi didn’t think this place appeared just for gardening; the change in the environment, along with some arrangements Gu Xi made in the center of the city, made him realize there was definitely something unusual here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pondering for a moment, Gu Xi jumped off the Holy Silver Evil Coffin, holding the Illusion Magic Wand, and took two steps forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he stepped into this section of the city, the lettuces planted in the ground automatically moved to the sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice sounded from the direction of the large tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An outsider? Have those terrifying Deceitful Shadows been eliminated?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking in the direction from which the voice came, Gu Xi noticed that golden lights were falling from the direction of that large tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon closer examination, he could see that these were elves, only the size of a pinky finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were somewhat different from regular elves, as they were emitting golden light all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Gu Xi also noticed that with their appearance, the lettuce field before his eyes had transformed into a city, with each lettuce stalk being a small house, and inside were some similar elves peeking out to look around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Elf, Little Elf, Spirit Monster, Flower Demon, Flower Spirit, you can call us whatever you like. We are the unusual residents of this city, not transformed into Deceitful Shadows.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the elves flew up right in front of Gu Xi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi noticed that this particular little elf was a bit different; although small in stature, he appeared akin to a Great Angel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was clad in heavy plate armor, wielding a longsword radiating golden light, with pigeon-like wings on his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he flew to Gu Xi, Gu Xi also noticed he had a large beard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must be an Undead, welcome to the Lettuce Duchy, I am the current King, you can call me Jiben Lettuce Flower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A duchy? A duchy hidden in Yalidu City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Gu Xi was at a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although I wish to say otherwise, I must admit this duchy truly exists.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jiben was speechless himself; these little elves appeared to have all sorts of military units, yet their combat power was exceedingly weak; three to five elves could barely defeat a single mouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Jiben’s Great Angel guise, he truthfully lacked even a level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Gu Xi were unaware of the situation here, casually using a Death Ripple or Mind Kill could obliterate these elves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, now that Gu Xi had arrived, and since they weren’t Deceitful Shadows, killing them all wasn’t on his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, even if you have a duchy, it seems like you lack self-preservation skills. I’m Gu Xi, the Lord of Yalidu City. I’ve come to attack the current Yalidu City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve already seized half of Yalidu City, and within the next ten to twenty hours, I’ll have the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As you can see, I am an Undead Mage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although I’m still alive, most of my subordinates are Undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your presence in my city may be influenced negatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by your current situation, if even a trace of Undead aura touches you, you might be done for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no, Mr. Gu, we aren’t in such dire straits. Can you guess how we’ve survived in this city full of Deceitful Shadows?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Jiben’s words, Gu Xi glanced at the large tree not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there a problem with the tree?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This tree possesses purification abilities, but for now, it can only cover the area before us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it suffices to protect our Lettuce Duchy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren’t you afraid of the Undead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why fear? Life and death are the most natural phenomena; where there’s life, there’s death, which is normal, unlike these Deceitful Shadows that have extreme corrosiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why should we fear the Undead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi already understood the theory of these little elves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a thought of utilizing these elves flashed through his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would you like to join my Yalidu City? I can guarantee you ample land to reside on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi’s diplomacy skill, though not high level, was useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with his forces, and Gu Xi being truly beneficial to these elves, Jiben naturally nodded affirmatively when Gu Xi proposed this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, Jiben, slightly begrudgingly, remarked, \"But what can we do? Our skills mainly consist of planting trees, herbs, or flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had it been others, we wouldn’t even consider this, but you’re clearly Undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I must ask, do Undead need to eat as well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We do eat, though often it’s not the same as regular humans. Sometimes negative energy or yin qi suffices, without the need for consume food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s unfortunate, our combat power is weak, we might not be able to aid you in battle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi glanced at Jiben, thinking his notion of weak combat power compared nothing at all; he basically had none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, some aspects in their earlier conversation had caught Gu Xi’s interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you mention earlier about planting trees?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can, planting trees is innate to us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you plant some trees with special requirements?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xi recalled having five thousand Grass Returning Pill Tree Seedlings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s easy enough to dig a hole and bury them, but the cultivation requirements of these seedlings weren’t that simple, and Gu Xi didn’t have a Druid or Spirit Plant Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entrusting a bunch of Undead with tree planting seemed unrealistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, upon hearing the elves’ ability to plant trees, Gu Xi naturally had to inquire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course we can, we were born to plant trees, but what kind of tree do you wish to plant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Gu Xi’s desire to plant trees, Jiben’s excitement grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw clearly that Gu Xi had some demand for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a blessing indeed, as his fear was that Gu Xi might lack demand, rendering them unnecessary, ultimately driving them away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, they’d truly be lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Gu Xi merely asked them to plant some trees, a trivial task easily manageable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem, regardless of how special the tree is, can it be more special than the World Tree? Not bragging, but we’ve even planted the World Tree...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1132,"2026-06-10T07:09:37.036Z",1,"novelbin.me","137b0c560cb8e822a1b478649b5eceb7b8244d9362f120961a9a02be4a29e3d0","undead-mage-from-a-cell-chapter-826","undead-mage-from-a-cell-chapter-824",860,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fundead-mage-from-a-cell-cover.jpg"]
