Elven cultivators

The initial embryo of the True Seal has been formed; the next step is to integrate it with the laws.

However, Anton did not continue. Instead, he broke out of his meditation, exhaled a long breath, and opened his eyes.

The light from the light source stone in the quiet room remained soft, but the sky outside the window had already darkened.

This seclusion lasted for more than three months, going directly from late autumn into the depths of winter.

Anton stood up and stretched his limbs.

Having been in seclusion for too long, he was quite mentally and physically exhausted, so he planned to rest for a few days to get back into shape before continuing.

Of course, Anton's so-called rest was not about sleeping or doing nothing.

He left the quiet room and went to the puppet workshop.

Pushing open the door, the light from the Light Source Stone cascaded down from the dome, illuminating the massive body on the stone platform in the center of the workshop.

It was a tall figure that resembled the appearance of the Jia Shen God General.

It is not yet fully formed. The restrictions on the surface of the body have been completely drawn, but the final step of adjustment and fusion is still missing.

Even so, that sharp and chilling aura had already spread out as if it were a tangible thing, making the air seem to freeze.

Anton gazed at the nearly completed divine general, a look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

The Divine General of Jiazi.

This is the second guardian deity he has crafted in the past two years.

It took nearly ten years to refine the Jia Shen Divine General.

However, this time it took far less time than the previous one.

It will be completed in just over two years.

While his accumulated experience certainly played a role, it was also because his cultivation had been continuously improving over the years, and his understanding of the laws had become increasingly profound, making him naturally more adept at refining.

Anton came to the stone platform and placed his hand on the god's chest.

Divine sense surged forth like a tide, probing into the divine general's body, slowly meandering along the tens of thousands of restrictive meridians, and then began to regulate and fuse them.

The moment all the restrictions merged and were fully activated, a deafening thunderclap suddenly erupted in the workshop.

Silver-blue lightning burst forth from the god's body like a torrent bursting its banks, rampaging through the workshop and causing the defensive array patterns on the walls to flicker wildly.

Anton remained unfazed and flicked his fingers repeatedly.

One after another, the spells, like shooting stars, entered the divine general's body.

hum!

A deep hum emanated from the god's body, and all the lightning bolts converged at the same instant, as if compressed and settled by an invisible force.

The workshop suddenly fell silent.

The Jiazi God General sat up from the stone platform and landed silently.

Its body is slender and upright, its posture is like a drawn sword, and its aura is so fierce that it makes the air tremble slightly.

His entire body was enveloped in flowing silver-blue lightning, his hair and clothes fluttering without wind, each strand wrapped with a tiny arc of lightning.

He wore a battle robe with flowing lightning patterns, and tiny lightning bolts crackled as the hem of the robe fluttered, as if he were the embodiment of the might of the Thunder God.

Anton's gaze fell on the object held in its right hand.

It was a dark purple jade token about 1.2 feet long, with silver-blue lightning patterns flowing across its surface, and tiny arcs of electricity constantly jumping around its edges.

The front of the token is engraved with the ancient seal script "Thunder Commander", while the back features complex cloud and thunder runes.

Seeing this, Anton's lips curled up slightly, and a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

The Jiazi Divine General, under the jurisdiction of the Thunder Bureau, is in charge of attack and conquest.

Unlike the Jia Shen Divine General, which excels in close combat, it is adept at long-range lightning magic output and can even summon heavenly lightning to unleash astonishing destructive power at crucial moments.

If a Jiazi Divine General is stationed on the battlefield, the area within a radius of dozens of miles will be its thunder domain.

Before the enemy even gets close, they must first endure a baptism of thunder.

The distance between Jia Shen Shen Jiang and the distance between Jia Shen Shen Jiang are complementary.

"The second guardian deity is complete. Next, we should refine the Jiaxu deity."

Anton pondered to himself,

With the experience gained from crafting the first two guardian deities, it is believed that the efficiency of subsequent crafting will only increase.

With a flick of his sleeve, Anton put away the Jiazi Divine General and was about to begin refining the Jiaxu Divine General when his expression suddenly changed.

A sudden aura emanated from the upper levels of the Nine Heavens Tower, like a spring that had been dormant for many years suddenly gushing forth, carrying some indescribable and inexplicable meaning.

The aura was initially extremely faint and subtle, like smoke or wisps of smoke, and almost imperceptible without careful observation.

But in the blink of an eye, it expanded rapidly, transforming into an unstoppable torrent that poured down from the upper levels of the tower.

The entire Nine Heavens Tower trembled slightly, and the array patterns on the walls flickered wildly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if resonating with that aura.

Anton was not surprised but pleased, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Without hesitation, he flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

When they reappeared, they were already in front of a quiet room.

This is the quiet room where Eleanor is in seclusion.

The doors were tightly shut.

However, through the crack in the door, one could vaguely see a layer of emerald green light flowing behind it.

The halo had a warm, watery texture, as if life was breathing and pulsating within it. With each shift, a visible, transparent ripple spread out from the crack in the door, spreading outwards like water waves.

Where the ripples passed, the air became fresh and moist, as if you were in a forest after the rain, and even breathing became easier.

This is an unusual phenomenon caused by the fluctuation of the laws of heaven and earth after a golden elixir is formed using wood-based cultivation techniques.

If it weren't for the array restrictions of the Nine Heavens Tower, the strange phenomenon would have been even more obvious.

Anton stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the emerald green halo behind the door suddenly vanished.

A moment later, the door opened silently.

A slender figure slowly walked out from behind the door.

Three years later, Eleanor's skin was even more radiant than before, with a subtle, warm glow, understated yet profound.

Her long, emerald-green hair cascaded down like a waterfall, with a faint, almost imperceptible, blue halo flowing around the ends, like the glimmer of sunlight shining through the dewdrops on new leaves in early spring.

But the most striking change is her overall aura.

If Eleanor in the past was like a green bamboo standing quietly by the stream, calm and elegant, but lacking some sharpness, then at this moment she is like an ancient pine tree rooted in a cliff.

Although still calm and composed, there was an added resilience that came from the core of his being.

That is a change that only occurs when the essence of life undergoes a leap after one has adapted to the laws of heaven and earth and made them one's own.

Anton smiled slightly: "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, you are now a member of my Dao."

Eleanor paused for a moment, then a smile spread across her face, clean and bright.

She bowed slightly, and said with a touch of playfulness, "Thank you, fellow Daoist."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

……

The news of Eleanor's advancement to the Golden Core stage caused quite a stir in the Primordial City.

After all, this is only the second Golden Core cultivator since Anton.

Nine-tiered Heavenly Tower, Heavenly Origin Hall.

In the brightly lit hall, the clan's high-ranking members gathered together, beaming with joy.

Even Elena and Darion, who were in the Nine Nether City, rushed back via the teleportation array.

All eyes were on the slender figure on the right side of the long table.

During her three-year seclusion, Eleanor rarely appeared in front of others.

Looking at her now, everyone can feel a completely different aura about her than before.

"Now our clan has gained another legendary warrior."

The Third Elder laughed loudly.

The other elves also wore joyful smiles.

Golden Core cultivators are not ordinary legendary cultivators.

Back when Anton had just broken through to the next level and hadn't even fully mastered his supernatural powers, he was able to easily kill a legendary dragon.

While Eleanor may not be as powerful as Anton, her strength certainly surpasses that of the newly crowned legend.

Once she masters the supernatural powers, she will likely reach the legendary level of a pillar stone immediately.

The elder's gaze fell on his granddaughter, his eyes filled with joy and emotion.

He remembered many years ago, when Eleanor was a little girl with a ponytail, following behind her father, chasing fireflies under the Tree of Eternity.

Eleanor changed after her father died in battle.

She stopped joking and acting cute, and instead buried herself in cultivation and ancient texts, desperately trying to improve her strength.

The elder had also worried that his granddaughter was too strong-willed and put too much pressure on him.

Fortunately, Anton appeared later.

It changed the clan in an incredible way, and it also changed Eleanor.

She no longer carries all the pressure on her shoulders; she has found her place and a new goal.

To this day, she has even surpassed the Grand Elder himself.

Looking at his granddaughter's calm and confident smile, the elder felt a surge of satisfaction.

"Wow, Eleanor is amazing."

Roman chuckled and gave his friend a firm hug.

"Once you've mastered your supernatural powers, we can have another spar."

Eleanor gave her a reproachful look and refused without hesitation, "Forget it, I don't want to fight you. If you want to spar, go find the clan leader."

"...The skill gap between me and Anton is too big. He always lets me win, so it's not fun to spar with him," Roman said, scratching his cheek.

She has obviously already tried it.

Anton sat at the head of the table, smiling as he watched everyone chat and laugh for a while before asking Eleanor, "After condensing your golden core, you can cultivate supernatural abilities. What do you plan to cultivate?"

Eleanor had clearly considered this question beforehand, and upon hearing it, she replied without hesitation, "The True Water of the Northern Darkness and the Primordial Life Qi of the Void."

When she was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, she cultivated the Yin Heavy Water.

Now that I want to further my supernatural abilities, I should naturally choose the Northern Darkness True Water, which is of the same lineage, so that I can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

In addition to being a water elemental, she is also a wood elemental.

It's entirely possible to also learn a wood-elemental supernatural power.

Using the primordial life force is a good choice.

After all, given her current status, she rarely needs to be on the front lines of battle, so there's absolutely no need for her to master too many offensive and magical abilities.

Even if one occasionally goes to the front lines, self-preservation will definitely be the primary concern.

The ability to restore vital energy through the void is undoubtedly more suitable.

Seeing that Eleanor had already made her decision, Anton nodded without saying anything more, and then turned his gaze to the others.

"Besides congratulating Eleanor on her advancement to the Golden Core stage, there's another reason I've gathered everyone here today."

Seeing that the chieftain was getting down to business, the elves present all composed themselves and looked at him solemnly.

"To date, thirteen spatial nodes in the subspace of the Holy Dragon Mountains have been destroyed, leaving only five."

"In seven or eight years at most, the allied forces will be able to break through the subspace and reach Holy Dragon City."

"And this siege will not last long."

"The war to slay dragons should end within ten years."
