dark witches rise

Chapter 161 The second-class paladin, the retention of the mandolin wizard
In the depths of the forest of knight steles.

The dead air, which was as thick as the essence, rolled and surged, venting towards a certain direction under an invisible traction.

Roja's body was like a bottomless pit, frantically absorbing the air of death, using the life talisman and the knight inscription to convert the air of death into vitality at a rate of tens of units per second.

Practicing with the help of huge death energy, thin green lines emerged from inside and outside of Roja's body.

These thin green threads are like the branches of trees rooted in Roja's body, absorbing nutrients and growing vigorously.

These green silk threads are what Roja obtained after fusing the Seed of Life—the Tree of Life Pattern!
After becoming a paladin, if you want to continue to improve your strength and increase your vitality, all you need to do is to constantly practice the tree of life patterns.

Let the tree of the pattern of life grow vigorously, let the tree of the pattern of life blossom and bear fruit.

Roja's skin, bones, eyes, heart, spine, brain... There are life pattern trees everywhere in the body.

After the life pattern tree grew, Roja's physique continued to strengthen, his strength continued to increase, and his vitality continued to soar.

The vitality that had already reached [-] units soared up piece by piece like there was no end.

Three thousand five hundred, four thousand...

Four thousand five hundred, five thousand...

Five thousand five hundred, six thousand...

When the vitality increased to [-] units, the life pattern tree had fully grown.

The next thing to do is-

Let the Life Pattern Tree blossom and bear fruit!
Roja used his vitality to continuously cultivate the life pattern tree.

Gradually, the life-pattern tree that had grown to the extreme changed. A small flower bud appeared from a branch of the life-pattern tree and gradually grew bigger.

With the appearance of life buds, Roja's vitality stagnated at [-] units for a long time broke through again.

Six thousand five hundred, seven thousand...

Seven thousand five hundred, eight thousand...

After condensing three life flower buds, Roja stopped practicing.

Feeling the surging vitality of more than 1 units in his body, Roja couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and laughed out loud.

"Haha, hahaha..."

"Originally, I wanted to condense my vitality to cultivate to [-] units, and I planned to stop when I condensed two life buds."

"I didn't expect that with the help of the knight's inscription, three life buds would be condensed at the same time?"

It only took Roja a few months to go from casting a holy foundation to becoming a paladin to condensing three life flower buds. Apart from being assisted by the certificate of twin souls, he accidentally obtained the knight inscription that can speed up the cultivation of vitality. In addition, he is in the territory of the mandolin wizard, and he has an infinite amount of death energy to assist his cultivation, which is also an extremely important factor.

"If I don't have so much aura of death, it will take at least seven years for me to cultivate to the current level."

"Continue to practice here, and I am sure that within three years, I will condense seven life buds and reach the pinnacle of a second-class paladin."

"And it will take at least 30 years if I want to continue to practice until I condense seven life buds and reach the limit of a second-class paladin."

Roja had to sigh inwardly, "Having a good cultivation environment is great! Having inexhaustible and sufficient resources for cultivation is exciting!"

"Perhaps I am more suitable to take the path of a green-robed wizard who focuses on vitality?"

I think Roja has worked so hard to become an apprentice wizard for so many years, but the magic power is only [-] units.

And it has only been more than a year since he cultivated casually, and his vitality has soared from a few hundred units to 1 units.

"Oh, it's really confusing."

"After the ten-year resident mission is over, let's see the situation."

"There is still some time to get rid of the curse and resentment in the body first."

Forest of Steles of Knights is also known as Forest of Manhua. It should be said that Forest of Manhuas is the real name of this forest. Forest of Knights of Steles is just something similar to a nickname.

Manhualin is the site of mandolin wizards. In the past 300 years, it is unknown how many people have died, and how many resentments and curses have been accumulated.

These resentments and curses are integrated with the air of death, and absorbing the air of death is equivalent to absorbing resentment and curses.

Now Roja has accumulated so much resentment and curse in his body that he can easily kill a third-class apprentice. He is just using more than 1 units of vitality to forcefully suppress it.

Still, his health went from bad to worse.

"let's start."

Roja made seals with both hands, and began to use the magic technique Pure Magic Pure Body to get rid of the ominous power in his body.

At this time, the knight inscription located in the depths of Roja trembled slightly, releasing a strange force to assist the pure magic body.

In an instant, the efficiency of the pure magic body soared several times!
I don't know if it's because the knight's inscription was forged in the knight town where the resentful spirits were transformed. The knight's inscription has a strong suppression and purification effect on resentment and curses.

If it weren't for the knight inscription, Roja wouldn't have dared to absorb the air of death so crazily.

He can condense one or two life buds at most, and then he has to stop and use the pure magic body to purify the ominous power in his body, and he dare not continue to practice.

To purify the huge ominous power in the body, in the past, even Roja, who was assisted by the certificate of twin souls, had to run the pure magic body day and night for more than a year to restore the body to normal.

But now he has the Forest of Steles!
Wisps of black smoke visible to the naked eye floated from Roja's body, and whenever he used the certificate of twin souls, the black smoke would suddenly increase several times.

Although there are not many resentments and curses that can be dispelled every hour, the victory lies in the persistence and the continuous flow.

One day, two days, three days...

Ten days, 20 days, 30 days...

The grievances and curses that are eliminated every day are slowly increasing.

After so many days of continuous use of magic skills and pure magic body, Roja's proficiency in pure magic body has continued to increase. Even if he does not rely on the certificate of twin souls, his pure magic body has reached the realm of Dacheng.

After using the certificate of twin souls, it is even possible to reach the level of a grand master.

So much so that Roja originally estimated that it would take two months to completely purify his body, but he achieved his goal in just one month.

Roja wanted to continue cultivating here, because the improvement in strength here was so fast and enjoyable that he didn't want to leave at all.

but--

"There is not much time until the deadline to go to the root of the earth."

"Now that the purpose has been achieved, it is time to leave."

Roja stood up and looked around the forest where he had been for more than a year.

Although it is a dead forest surrounded by the breath of death, it can be called a forbidden place for life, but he is still a little nostalgic about leaving.

After taking a deep breath, Roja raised his head and said loudly to the void: "Master Mandolin Wizard, I am going to the root of the earth where I am stationed. I will take my farewell first. I hope to see you again next time."

The voice of Roja's voice has not been attenuated for thousands of meters.

In the center of Manhualin.

On the top of a [-]-meter-high ancient tree, a beautiful woman is cultivating under the cover of pure vitality that is as thick as the essence.

Vitality entered into Weiss' body along with the huffing and puffing, helping her to maintain the tree of life pattern in her body.

After a year of training, Weiss has successfully fused the Seed of Life and became a paladin.

However, Weiss, as a first-class paladin who has not yet condensed life buds, has as much as [-] units of life force, and the purity is far higher than that of Roja who is in the same realm.

Weiss, who was practicing, heard a voice coming from the direction of the Forest of Steles, her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes.

"Is Roja leaving?" Weiss' voice was so soft that it was inaudible.

At this time, a person who looked very similar to Weiss appeared beside Weiss without warning.

Although the person who came was very similar to Weiss in appearance, he was different from Weiss who had bright blond hair. The hair of the person who came was snow-white, and there were vicissitudes in his eyes that had witnessed the passage of time.

The mandolin wizard stood beside Weiss, and with a slight wave of her hand, a screen formed by condensed magic power emerged out of thin air, and Roja, who was bound by vines, was played on the screen.

"As expected of a knight genius who was able to cultivate the battle elephant swordsmanship to the ninth level before the age of 20, he became a second-class paladin in just one year, and condensed three life buds."

"What's even more valuable is that he seems to have a natural restraint on such ominous energies as resentment and curse. Is it because of his physique?"

For Roja, the mandolin wizard became more and more satisfied.

"Since your knight talent is so high and the cultivation environment here is so good, why are you in a hurry to leave?"

"Why don't you just stay and practice the "Seven Trees Sacred Flower Garden" to perfection before leaving?"

A scarlet light flashed deep in the eyes of the mandolin wizard.

The trees around Roja suddenly trembled violently, and black and green vines as thick as a baby's arm shot towards Roja, tying him up.

Immediately afterwards, death energy, resentment, and curses that were bigger and richer than any moment before rushed towards Roja crazily.

"Stay here and practice hard. By the way, help me purify the resentment and curses accumulated in the Manhua Forest."

The mandolin wizard looked at Roja with a smile on his face.

The seemingly amiable smile revealed a bone-chilling chill, making everyone who saw it feel scalp numb from the bottom of their hearts.
