Elven cultivators

In the early morning, before the sky was fully bright, a thin layer of pale blue mist quietly rose from all parts of the forest, enveloping the woods like a veil.

This is the manifestation of the wood element's spiritual energy reaching its peak; it is the life force exhaled by the entire forest as it breathes.

The mist glowed faintly in the morning light, flowing slowly between the tree canopy and branches, immersing the entire Silver Moon Forest in a warm ocean of energy.

Since the pale blue light screen appeared that day, similar scenes have appeared every day.

The elves went from initial shock and bewilderment to later marvel, and now they've become accustomed to it.

The spectacular sight that once sparked countless exclamations and discussions has now become a daily occurrence, as natural as sunrise and sunset.

Apart from the clan's high-ranking members who knew the detailed information about the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, the ordinary clansmen only knew that Andong had set up a huge magic array covering the entire forest.

These unusual phenomena were all caused by the operation of the magic array.

They didn't fully understand the mysteries of the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, but they could most directly perceive the changes in the concentration of elemental energy in the air.

The high concentration of elemental energy that used to require entering the Spirit Gathering Chamber to enjoy can now be easily felt in any corner of the Silvermoon Forest.

The changes in the overall environment have also indirectly improved the effectiveness of the Spirit Gathering Room.

The latter's elemental energy concentration increased dramatically compared to the original.

In just a few months, all the elves experienced the incredible speed at which magic power was condensed, and without exception, they were overjoyed.

Another equally obvious change, but one that requires more patience to observe, is occurring on the outskirts of the forest.

The areas bordering Silvermoon Forest, Thousand Rock Hills, and the Northern Wasteland, where barren lands that were once so sparsely covered with weeds are becoming fertile at an astonishing rate.

The soil gradually changes color from grayish-yellow to dark brown, and when held in the hand, you can feel a vibrant, moist texture.

The weeds went from sparse to lush.

Wildflowers went from scattered to abundant.

What's most eye-catching are the saplings that have appeared out of nowhere.

They sprout tender green buds from the soil and grow branches and leaves at an astonishing speed. In just a few months, they grow into small trees that are half the height of a person.

Although it's not a rare or precious magical tree species, it's just a common, ordinary tree.

But their appearance made every elf who saw this scene unable to help but show a joyful smile.

This means that the area of ​​the forest is expanding.

Since the clan's population exploded, their settlement has expanded outward day by day, almost touching the outermost edge of the forest.

The clan's leadership had been considering planting trees and expanding the forest area, but now that they had the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, they had completely put aside their concerns.

Under the nourishment of the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, the newly grown trees will quickly grow, take root, and multiply, forming new woodlands.

The new woodland will then become part of the formation, providing it with more wood-elemental spiritual energy, thereby further accelerating the expansion of the forest.

The elves could watch with delight as the forest's boundaries expanded day by day without expending a single ounce of effort.

All these changes originated from an elf.

Anton.

The original Silvermoon Clan members need no introduction, but even the elves who have only recently joined the clan have deeply felt the changes that Anton has brought to the clan.

One person's talent can change the fate of an entire community.

In the Silvermoon Clan, this statement is no longer an empty slogan, but a reality that happens every day.

Nowadays, when the name Andong is mentioned by the clansmen, their tone is always unconsciously tinged with various emotions.

Worship, gratitude, amazement, and an almost pious trust.

Countless young elves regard him as a role model, hoping that one day they can become like him and be a figure worthy of admiration.

……

Beneath the Tree of Eternity, two slender figures stood side by side.

Roman looked up, curiously examining the giant tree before him.

"Eleanor, don't you think the Tree of Eternity seems to have grown taller?" Roman suddenly asked.

"The Tree of Eternity naturally grows taller and larger over time," Eleanor replied casually. "It's just that the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array provides it with a massive amount of elemental energy, accelerating its growth."

Eleanor saw more than Roman did.

She could see pale blue spiritual energy surging from the underground network of roots, flowing into the Eternal Tree like rivers flowing into the sea, and then being transported to every corner of the forest as the array operated.

The Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, covering the entire forest, with the Eternal Tree at its core and the Fountain of Life as its hub, transforms the entire Silver Moon Forest into a breathing, ever-growing living entity.

The Tree of Eternity is the heart of this life form.

"That's amazing!" Roman exclaimed, his eyes sparkling.

No matter how many times she watched it, she still found it amazing.

It's just a magic array, yet it can bring about such a miraculous change in the entire Silvermoon Forest.

This seemed unbelievable to her.

"Oh, right." Roman's mind raced, and his attention shifted to something else in the next second. "Eleanor, didn't you switch to Anton's cultivation method? How's it going?"

"very nice."

When this was mentioned, Eleanor's face showed a genuine smile.

The Azure Emperor's Mysterious Heaven Record gave her an unprecedented sense of exhilaration in improving her strength.

Especially with the activation of the Great Evolution Azure Profound Array, her speed of refining spiritual energy increased even further.

The Silvermoon Forest is now undoubtedly a unique and blessed cultivation ground for her.

I can feel the benefits almost every moment.

This sensation captivated her.

"How exactly is it different from before?" Roman asked curiously.

Eleanor carefully considered her words and tried to explain the difference between refining spiritual energy and condensing magic power to Roman in the simplest and most understandable language possible.

Roman seemed to understand but not quite, nodding occasionally, but his eyes clearly revealed a kind of bewildered confusion.

"That sounds impressive," Roman concluded, scratching his head. "But I probably won't be able to experience it. The Eight Desolations Suppressing Prison Scripture is different from yours. I still don't fully understand things like Qi Sea and Meridians. Just practice according to what Anton said."

Eleanor turned her head to look at her, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

That's how Roman is. He never delves into things he's not interested in, but once he's convinced that something is right, he'll pursue it without hesitation, single-mindedly.

Of course, this simplicity is not necessarily bad; sometimes it is a rare kind of clarity.

According to Anton, this is called a childlike heart.

Those who possess a childlike heart are often able to go further in the pursuit of strength.

"Speaking of which, Anton's ability to create such a complete system is quite impressive," Roman exclaimed. "I wonder how Anton managed to do it?"

"Indeed, it's amazing." Eleanor nodded slightly, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes. "The more I study, the more I can appreciate the subtlety and mystery of cultivation. Anton's ability to create such a complete system is truly astounding."

The Elf race is one of the oldest races on the Dawn Continent, having accumulated countless knowledge from ancient times to the present.

It's hard to imagine that a power system completely unknown to the elves exists in this world.

The only explanation is that Anton himself created all of this.

Despite the unbelievability, Eleanor couldn't think of a more reasonable explanation than this.

Therefore, the more Eleanor understood the cultivation system, the more she admired and respected Anton.

She has only scratched the surface of what's to come.

Aside from refining spiritual energy, he was learning the art of talismans, and hadn't even formally come into contact with the spells, alchemy, and weapon crafting that Anton had mentioned.

Even so, she was deeply shocked by all kinds of unprecedented and profound knowledge.

Seeing Eleanor's change in expression, a mischievous glint flashed in Roman's eyes.

"Eleanor, you never used to talk like this before."

Eleanor was taken aback: "What kind of tone is that?"

Roman said with a grin, "Everyone says I listen to Anton without question and that everything Anton says is right. I think you're almost there now, always looking at Anton with such admiration."

Eleanor blushed and turned her head away: "I didn't."

Roman didn't argue with her, he just looked at her with a smile.

This made Eleanor feel guilty, and she quickly changed the subject: "You still have the mind to care about this? My strength is improving very quickly now, and I'll catch up with you soon. Don't let me surpass you then."

Roman's attention was indeed diverted, and he grinned, "That's great, now I have an opponent to spar with."

Once this was mentioned, Roman started pouring out his grievances as if he had opened a floodgate.

"You have no idea, since I advanced to the Gold rank, I haven't been able to find any worthy opponents in the clan to spar with."

"Anton is busy with cultivation and research all day long; you can't even see a shadow of him."

"Needless to say, the three elders are extremely busy."

"Cedric and the others are the same; they're either in the Underdark or in the mines, and when they do come back, it's always in a rush."

"Right now, all I can do is ask Anton for some of the Five Battalions' elite soldiers to spar with the puppets; it's better than nothing."

Roman counted off a bunch of things on his fingers, then shrugged, his face clearly saying "I'm so helpless."

Eleanor couldn't help but smile at her worried expression.

"Don't worry, once I've successfully established my foundation, I'll spar with you."

"Then it's settled." Roman grabbed her arm and pulled her forward. "Come on, let's go to the Spirit Gathering Room to cultivate."

"I don't know what Anton has been busy with lately. He's locked himself in the treehouse for more than half a year now. I haven't been to his place to use his spirit gathering room for a long time."

"Fortunately, the clan has recently built many spirit gathering rooms, and the elders specially set aside one for me. From now on, I will have my own cultivation place."

The two walked side by side, their steps light and quick, towards the Spirit Gathering Chamber.

Sunlight slanted down behind them, casting two slender, elongated shadows that moved slowly across the leaf-strewn path.
