Very reasonable cultivation

Chapter 134 Forest of Elves

After witnessing the relationship between faith and God, Tian Zhen gained a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between "faith" and "God." These experiences also pointed out the direction for his future planning and design of traveling through the world.

He first realized the crucial importance of a stable "world anchor." It wasn't just a tool for traversal; it was also the key to connecting different worlds and maintaining stability. So, he began constructing a larger and more stable world anchor on the moon, striving to create one that could more accurately locate the desired world's spatial coordinates.

Secondly, Tian Zhen's observations of the professional systems of different worlds gave him a new understanding of cultivation systems. He discovered that the difference between a warrior and a mage was essentially the same as the difference between physical cultivation and magical cultivation among immortal cultivators. Whether cultivating one's qi or cultivating one's spirit, the goal was to increase one's power, ultimately achieving control over nature and changing the world.

Warriors cultivate their bodies, integrating their strength into the dynamics of nature, becoming powerful warriors of strength. Mages cultivate their spirits, mastering the myriad natural processes and becoming formidable sorcerers who manipulate magic. Essentially, they all cultivate a single element of their essence, energy, and spirit to promote overall balanced growth. However, their differing cultivation focuses on different forms of power.

After passing through the teleportation array, they arrived at the Star Department, the closest place to the Elf Forest. Here, Tian Zhen could see the elves. They were tall and straight, with beautiful faces, wearing light clothes, but they were wearing too few clothes, which was a bit disturbing.

Following a caravan bound for trade with the elven settlement, Tian Zhen also witnessed the so-called magical beasts. There were also veins of spirit stones here, which they called magic crystals. Perhaps they were left behind by that strangely powerful cultivator during his tribulation, and they were highly contagious, allowing the simple-minded animals here to form a dan in one step, or a magical beast crystal core. Clearly, this was a deformed form, unable to even control the smoothness of their qi. The dan they formed in one step was far from smooth; it would be more like a crystal, which contributed to their extremely irritable temperaments.

After two or three days of travel, Tian Zhen finally saw the Elf Forest.

This place is more like a world made up of giant trees. Tian Zhen can clearly feel the resonance between the trees, just like an underground world, except that the unity of the resonance here is the result of human intervention, accumulated over time.

The shortest giant tree here is hundreds of meters high, with a thick trunk, like a giant pillar. The extended branches can be used as a road, allowing three carriages to travel side by side without any problem.

Not only is this catalyzed by humans, there are many symbiotic relationships between the tree trunks with other plants and animals, which are intertwined to form a huge and complete ecosystem.

It's really perfect! Tian Zhen couldn't help but sigh. The formation of any civilization has its own uniqueness. He could even imagine the scene of this special plant civilization developing to its peak and running parallel to the Great Dao.

It also has a kind of beauty that is different from that of technological civilization.

Tian Zhen also followed the team to the capital of the elves. There was a giant tree comparable to Mount Tai. The bark was made of rock-like material, dark green in color, and looked ancient.

It emits the same resonant message as those plants in the Elf Forest, but it is the end of all changes and the beginning of plant civilization.

I really couldn't imagine how long it took for such a big tree to grow into this size bit by bit. This made him open his mouth the whole time, like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

If someone said that this was natural growth, Tian Zhen would definitely not believe it. A piece of earth this big should at least have become a spirit and transformed into a human form. Although it has a certain degree of self-awareness and its energy is also very huge, this unnatural intervention makes it very difficult to reach the corresponding level of roundness and improve its realm, let alone transform.

Fortunately, these elves were all born by her mother. The pointed ears and longevity are the peculiar unified resonances here. If people come to live here for a few generations, they will also become the elves here, just like the Plasma Spark Tower on the Ultra Star. This is probably the reason why the elves do not allow outsiders to stay for a long time, and it has nothing to do with the rumor that the Elf Tree gave birth to elves.

Tian Zhen stayed here for a few days and had a good experience of life in the trees.

According to the information obtained from the universal storage device, the elves need a large amount of magic crystals to convert into water of life through moonlight. However, the water of life is already a drop in the bucket for this giant elf tree. In other words, this giant tree has become less and less active, and its lifespan is coming to an end.

After Tian Zhen knew about this, he naturally didn't want to let such a unique civilization die out. Looking at the panicked looks of those elves, he knew that it would be difficult to re-establish this historical civilization cycle, and it was unknown how long it would take to rebuild it.

Placing his hand gently on the trunk, Tian Zhen began to sense the balance of the entire tree. Through the balanced fulcrums, Tian Zhen felt the rhythm of the entire Elf Forest. It was really wonderful, no less than the Jueyan Vine last time.

Tian Zhen felt it, and it also felt Tian Zhen. The inactive balance changes became active again, and a message came: "Hello, unknown strong man."

Seeing the other person greeting him so politely, Tian Zhen replied a little embarrassedly: "Hello, hello, please forgive my intrusion."

"So what is the matter that brings this strong man here? I will try my best to help if I can." The message it sent was weak, but it was still trying its best to comfort the elves who were already panicked.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll give you something, and then I'll leave now." Tian Zhen responded and integrated a 'golden elixir' into it. The 'golden elixir' went up along the branches until it reached the balance point of the giant tree.

"What is this?" it asked.

But Tian Zhen did not answer, but concentrated on regulating the balance between the 'Golden Pill' and the Elf Tree. After all, this tree has a history of at least ten thousand years, and the size of its aura is the largest and most unsmooth one he has ever seen. It is indeed troublesome to deal with. This is not something that can be solved by just sleeping. This sleep will probably take at least a thousand years, and the self-balance of the 'Golden Pill' cannot last that long.

The Elf Tree soon fell asleep, and Tian Zhen lay peacefully in the tree house to help it maintain its balance.

The elves outside were in a state of panic, while the higher-level elves prepared for the worst and began to inspect the recent visitors.

Who on earth had alarmed the mother tree, and what had he done to it? This terrified them greatly. If something happened to the mother tree, they would be homeless. Since ancient times, they had depended on the mother tree for survival, and most of them had relatively arrogant, old-fashioned, and stubborn personalities.

They had never considered what they would do if something happened to the mother tree. Only now, when the mother tree was nearing the end of its lifespan, did they begin to panic, searching for various ways to maintain the mother tree's life, but they had not considered changing their own living conditions.

I also hope this will serve as a reminder for them. Although the elves are the catalyst for the changes in the Elf Tree, and it's normal for their cognition to be somewhat rigid, if they continue to be the same, then Tian Zhen will be powerless. He will only lend a hand when helping others, and he won't send them "home".
