The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 883: Holiest of Holy Lands

Garden of Thyia

Ever since Vaan disappeared into the sea of darkness beyond the upper half tree region, Elder Willowthorn couldn't help worrying.

After all, the upper half tree region was where the death energy concentrated and was the den of Death Eaters.

More importantly, Divine Lord Death Eater dwelled there.

Even though Elder Willowthorn had never personally met the Divine Lord Death Eater, he had always been aware of its existence.

The opposite held true as well.

Both sides had known of each other for a very long time but had never interfered with one another. They had remained within their domains and respected their boundaries.

As such, after Vaan entered the upper half tree region, Elder Willowthorn started to feel regret.

"I shouldn't have allowed him to go look for Goddess Thyia's inheritance..." Elder Willowthorn sighed after looking away from the upper half tree region.

If Vaan perished, the wood spirits would also lose a Holy Wood Spirit. Nothing was more cruel than to be given hope only to have it taken away.

When the other wood spirits in the village found out where Vaan went, they couldn't help but look up at the dark sky with concern as well. They may not care about Vaan, but they definitely care about Emerald.

Holy Wood Spirits were directly tied to the prosperity of the Wood Spirit Race.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, a mushroom spirit, among other wood spirits, began to notice unprecedented changes in the skies of their garden.

"Everyone, look! S-Something is happening!"

"That...! How is that possible...?"

As more wood spirits in the village looked up and noticed the changes in the dark sky, their surprise changed to shock and alarm.

The sea of darkness that had occupied the upper half of the Garden of Thyia was receding for the first time in forever.

Before long, the whole trunk of the dead Mother Tree came into view, followed by the crown and beyond.

The glow of life from the surface had never been able to penetrate the wall of darkness. Thus, many wood spirits in the Garden of Thyia had never seen the upper half of the dead Mother Tree.

However, Elder Willowthorn was one of the few who had seen the full image of the Mother Tree, even when it was still alive and overflowing with vitality.

As such, Elder Willowthorn was quite emotional to see the complete Mother Tree again, even if it was only in a dead state.

That said, he was startled shortly after.

Even after the veil of darkness was mostly lifted from the upper half tree region, not a single Death Eater was seen. The swarm of Death Eaters had seemingly disappeared with the sea of death energy.

It was as if their entire existence had been an illusion from the start.

Nevertheless, after the deathly energy disappeared, the abundant wood energy quickly poured into the vacant upper half region, sprouting new life on the surface of the lifeless Mother Tree.

Within minutes, the new domain of wood was quickly marked and assimilated.

Meanwhile, the swarm of Death Eaters and the sea of death energy had been moved into Vaan's Heaven-Swallowing Space.

Although the present Heaven-Swallowing Space didn't support life, it had no problem hosting spiritual lifeforms. As such, the Divine Lord Death Eaters and the others moved into their new dwelling without any discomfort.

At the same time, Vaan had moved his stockpile of magical plants and medicine into the Profound Pearl of Life.

With the limitless life energy there, not only would the magical plants be perfectly preserved, but they would even continue to grow and evolve on their own.

Vaan suspected that even high-rank magic tools and artifacts had the potential to develop their spiritual consciousness as they underwent the baptism of life energy over time.

The Profound Pearl of Life was simply that heaven-defying.

In a single trip, Vaan had acquired an overwhelming military force capable of dominating Gehenna and lording over the Great Devils.

In fact, his newfound military force could sweep across every vassal star realm under the Skymagia Star Kingdom. Even so, this was ultimately borrowed strength and didn't belong to

him.

Thus, it was better not to boast lest he invited calamity.

More importantly, acquiring the powerful inheritance did not give Vaan a sense of peace. Instead, he had a newfound urgency to push forward his plans and grow even faster.

He had already learned that he had a brutally cruel and tough destiny. Thus, the indulgence of comfort would only be the hastening of his death.

'Within three years... No, within one year, I must complete the migration of Pangea and solidify my power in Gehenna...' Vaan thought to himself.

The dangers he had to face in the future weren't things the people around him could keep up with. As such, for those who wanted to stay, he had to create a suitable environment for them to develop at least.

As for those who would still follow him regardless of life and death, his first thought turned to the Profound Pearl of Life.

The Profound Pearl of Life's vast space and limitless life energy provided endless possibilities

for development.

Creating a habitable realm within shouldn't take too much effort.

Moreover, such effort wasn't required from him.

After all, the Profound Pearl of Life was a heavenly treasure of Chaos. Its life energy was no different from life-attribute mana. In other words, it was an endless source of power for

magic.

Any dragon or witch could use it to create a habitable realm.

More importantly, this kind of endless life-attribute mana was on par with the purest of mana, if not superior. As such, the world within the Profound Pearl of Life could be considered the holiest of all holy lands of cultivation.

Cultivating within the Profound Pearl of Life would produce results far better than anywhere else. Even the pure mana of the subterranean region couldn't be compared.

Alas, not everyone would get the chance to enjoy the benefits of the Profound Pearl of Life. After all, revealing its existence required the highest level of trust.
