Chapter 3043: Crystal Wang Zuo

This time, the hundred-meter-tall black staff striking the ground did not make the heavy "thud" sound of wood, but instead emitted a sound approximating the shattering of a mirror.

Crystal clusters thus grew out at the position where the 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 contacted the ground, rustling and rapidly spreading toward the surroundings along the ground. Those translucent white crystals did not look as luxurious as the jewelry of noble ladies, but when they appeared in sheets under the night sky at this moment, and were illuminated by the "sun" above the back of the throne, they had a different kind of aesthetic beauty.

The crystal clusters did not just grow along the ground, but even spread along the bottom of that huge throne toward the throne itself. They did not destroy the shape of the throne itself; the tree vines and materialized starlight were all outlined. And the surface of the crystal clusters was naturally not smooth, causing the throne to appear with crystal spikes pointing diagonally upward during the growth process, arching on both sides of the seat.

Emilia continued to shoot the fourth arrow, letting it pierce into the armrest on the left side of the throne. She observed nervously as she lowered her longbow, confirming that the crystal clusters had not spread onto Xia De, but were gradually wrapping around the ground around the central throne and the throne itself, only then did she feel slightly relieved.

But this was still not enough. Xia De could feel that the power of this brand-new Miracle Mythical Lock was trying hard to solidify the "time scar" into crystal, but relying on such power alone was still not enough.

The long-haired purple-eyed diviner then turned her head to look at Adele, who was walking out from among the witches at the edge of the clearing. It could be seen that the golden-haired demigod witch was quite reluctant to walk toward Luweiya; the expression on her face was probably more indescribable than a palette overturned by Flora, but Adele still walked over.

Golden eyes with complex emotions looked toward those purple eyes, while in the purple eyes was the confident and smug expression she was very familiar with—at least that was how Adele interpreted it. It had been unknown how long since the two had looked at each other so closely last time, so long that Adele had almost forgotten.

Before Xia De contacted her because of an accident in the Council, she had never thought that she would see Luweiya Anate one day, let alone that the next interaction between the two would be cooperation.

"Adele, if you are not willing to cooperate with me, I can do it myself."

A familiar tone appeared in the demigod witch's mind. That sense of familiarity even made her tremble with anger, fear, and more complex emotions:

"Don't call me Adele! Also, I am doing this to help Xia De, Anate, I will never trust you!"

She responded this way, but still reached out and took the right hand extended by the long-haired girl. Of course, there was a third demigod present, but Blaney Olanode had not mastered the power of time, so she couldn't help much right now.

Two hands were joined together, and two half-overlapping golden clock face phantoms appeared on the snow beneath their feet, one on the left and one on the right. The starry sky shone on the two witches from the end of the world. In the fluttering snow, what Adele saw was the end of the world with yellow sand filling the sky, while what Luweiya saw was the early morning of No. 6 Saint-Dran Square.

The light on the two intertwined. Although Adele always said Luweiya was an enemy, they cooperated seamlessly, knowing what the other wanted to do without even needing to communicate:

"Since Xia De has been continuously paying spiritual power to maintain our existence..."

The golden clock faces separating beneath their feet gradually overlapped inward, and their figures also gradually turned into light, intertwining in one place, and finally flew together with the fifth arrow shot by the elf toward Xia De's right hand gripping the staff.

Golden light merged into his body, and then turned into golden threads entangling the hundred-meter-tall 【Staff of Yggdrasil】.

At this point, the effects of Xia De's low-ring Sublimation Language and mid-ring Sublimation Language ended together, and the crystal clusters that had stopped growing just now continued to grow after Xia De obtained the power of the two demigod witches, only they did not expand the area larger, but thickened the crystal layer that had already appeared.

Thus, the crystal throne under the tree became increasingly ferocious. Luweiya's disappearance also allowed people to look up and observe more things. Emilia, standing in the center of the clearing with Professor Yuke Wood, saw with great worry that the crystal had turned the soles of Xia De's shoes into a crystalline luster; this was a very bad sign.

Not having to maintain the effects of two types of Sublimation Language also allowed Xia De to liberate most of his energy. The power of the great witch of time and the long-haired Luweiya was indeed very powerful. Thus, after obtaining the power of the witches, he looked at the glowing little sapling held in his left hand.

This was clearly the power of the Chosen One of Time, Emilia, but Xia De had only just probed it with his spiritual power when he immediately received a response from the sapling, the external manifestation of which was that the sapling bloomed with a more intense life aura and verdant light color.

【Because you obtained the divinity of the World Tree.】

Its power was far from that of the true World Tree, but even if it was only the power of birth, it had the qualifications to shake the great power of time.

The little sapling was willing to lend its power to Xia De. When Emilia's sixth arrow hit the sapling, the emerald light spread to his left arm and merged into his body.

The divinity just absorbed resonated silently with the power of the newborn tree, and thus the crystal clusters continued to grow. Amidst the increasingly loud rustling sound, they even expanded to the giant tree behind the throne, and after approaching the bottom of the trunk, they continued to spread toward the roots below and the trunk above.

At this moment, the throne had been completely wrapped in crystal. The crystal grew along Xia De's body, having completely turned the part below his knees and the bottom of the 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 into crystal. Traces of crystallization also appeared on the position where Xia De's right hand held the staff and his left hand lifting the sapling, and even traces of crystallization appeared on the newborn tree.

Besides around the throne, the keen Ring Warlocks also perceived that although the earth under the snow was still made of soil and stone, the surface of the earth seemed to have become somewhat crystalline. The material of the trees in the woodland also did not change, but the branches under the moonlight looked somewhat transparent.

These were all manifestations of the effect of "Light of Crystal" radiating throughout the entire woodland, representing that the seal was about to take shape, but this was still not enough.

"Stop, this won't work if it continues like this!"

Emilia shouted toward Xia De with a trembling voice, but the giant on the crystal throne did not answer. The exhausted Professor Yuke Wood squinted his eyes and stood beside the elf, saying to her in a low voice:

"It seems... it really can."

"But he..."

At this moment, the Outsider felt as if he had already become the Vesta Woodland itself. The surging spiritual power made him think that he already had enough power to raise high mountains in the forest with one thought, and generate deep valleys in the forest with one thought. Knowing that this was still not enough, he used his spiritual power to contact the "sun" intertwined with golden and brass colors above his head, which was that piece of bark:

"Originally thought there was still a chance to keep it in my hands... Forget it, hope Miss Bister forgives me, after all, this is a gift for her."

The huge bark intertwined with golden and brass colors could only be considered the size of a cloak for the hundred-meter-tall Xia De. Under the traction of spiritual power, the bark slowly descended, and the spiritual light made the back of the crystal throne brighter and brighter. The bottom of the bark first contacted the back of the throne, then merged with it, and then the entire bark continued downward, until the World Tree bark became a part of the crystal throne.

Thus, on the inner side of the back of the largest throne, which originally did not exist with any rune carvings, there also emerged the story written by Xia De about that "Light of Eternity."

The World Tree bark joined the Mythical Lock, or rather, became a part of the ritual, and it indeed pushed the power of the Mythical Lock again. Amidst the rustling sound, the crystal clusters that continued to grow spread along the roots of the giant tree behind the throne and grew toward the underground, while also moving upward along the trunk of the giant tree.

The speed at which the crystal clusters moved on the trunk was exactly the same as the speed at which they moved on Xia De's body. First, the part below his waist was completely crystallized, followed by his upper body, his arms, the Staff of Yggdrasil, and the newborn tree.

Until finally, the head of Xia De, who was looking toward Emilia's direction, was also completely crystallized. The little elf looked blankly at the huge crystal statue on the throne, looking at the crystal throne completely taking shape, looking at the appearance of the giant tree trunk half turned into crystal.

Rustling sounds were appearing everywhere in the woodland, coming from the earth, coming from the sky, and even more so from the space-time at this moment.

People who were relatively keen on the power of time had already felt that the collapsing time in the forest was almost completely suppressed, and time was even more stable than before the decisive battle broke out a day ago. Or rather, the Vesta Woodland, under the gaze of the giant statue of the "God-Caller," seemed to have returned to normal.

"So, he..."

The "God-Caller" sat motionless on the crystal throne, with his long staff touching the ground in his right hand, his left hand lifting the sapling, the story about eternal time on the back of the chair behind him, and the crystal throne beneath him solemn and sacred under the moonlight.

The white transparent material turned into silver at this moment. People watched him, waited for him, but he remained motionless throughout.

The witches looked at Miss Olanode, and the latter shook her head gently, but did not look worried. Emilia pursed her lips and her eye rims turned red again, but she believed that since she had not broken her promise, then Xia De would definitely return.

"So, he calculated me at the very end."

Professor Yuke Wood beside the little elf sighed long; he had already completely known his mission:

"The ancient seal adopted earth, wind, water, and fire, because the foundation of the world at that time was these four elements. But in the Sixth Era of today, the foundation of the world is miracle, blasphemy, enlightenment, and whisper. Elf of Moon Creek, you come and answer me, what is he missing now?" ===== CHAPTER 3044 =====
