Chapter 1093: The Gardener And The World Tree

With everyone prepared, I look once again at everyone's position while I go over in my mind everything I should do, because I only have one chance, we won't have room for maneuver if something goes wrong.

The Old Elves who came from the other two Elf villages I've been through are spread evenly around the World Tree, I look to Freya who would be closer to me.

Freya starts the first step, she extends her Aura to the Old Elves on her left side and her right side, her Aura harmonizes with their Aura before her Auras move to the next Old Elves and so on to all the Old Elves around the World Tree are connected by their Auras with Freya serving as the core for this to be possible.

I see and feel the Aura of these Ancient Elves flowing continuously in a circular stream around the World Tree using their bodies as a path.

With that part ready I look at Silvia and she goes towards the Gray Elf King along with Lorraine, the two look at me as if expecting something, so knowing it was my turn to act, I went to the World Tree.

Sigh

"(Calm mind... don't try to act without thinking one more time...)" (I)

As soon as my hand touches the bark of the World Tree I can hear countless screams mixed with laughter, it was more than bizarre and I was not able to understand the language of most of the screams, but I was still able to feel where these screams were coming from, it was coming from a black and purple energy inside the World Tree, this energy seemed to spread like a virus while devouring the energy of the World Tree.

I couldn't do anything against this tainted energy and I didn't need to, I used my Aura to harmonize with the World Tree with just one connection I could use, that will be enough for now.

I felt that as I did this the energy flows of nature that Lorraine connected to me to increase my speed of recovery were still there, it was supposed to be temporary but I could feel it was still there even if faintly, and as soon as I connected to the World Tree these energy flows seemed to come alive as they also connected with the World Tree forming a flow of nature energy flowing between me and the World Tree.

With that stronger connection, it would be easier to complete what I had to do, but it also shortened the time, my body couldn't withstand for a long time the energy that was flowing between me and the World Tree.

I look at Silvia and she was coming with an arm that was partially wood, this arm was coming apart as Silvia brought it to where I was, when she reached me the only thing there was a big crystal.

But I could see that there were lines of energy attached to the crystal that were coming towards me, it was only when I followed those lines that I noticed Lorraine standing next to me, her face covered in sweat and a pained expression in her eyes while holding an energy sphere between the two hands, it was from this sphere of energy that the energy lines were connected.

The power of the Old Elves followed Freya's lead, traveling deep within the world tree, dragging this corruption before bearing it towards me.

This process took several hours and the weight on top of me was something difficult to bear as time passed, I was doing my best to bear it without losing my concentration because there was still more to do after getting rid of this corruption.

As the hours passed, the corruption lessened more and more, it made the damage against the World Tree more apparent, this corruption had even become part of the World Tree's vitality, getting rid of that corrupted part was the same as get rid of that vitality.

When all the corruption had filtered out the tree was dry on the outside, the World Tree Spirit was still in the middle of the hole unable to merge with its body, but at least its energy was flowing between its spirit and its body.

"< Blood Eclipse Dragon Authority >" (I)

I felt the Blessings of the Goddess of Life Awaken within me as vital energy that seemed limitless flowed through my body to the World Tree.

I also use my ability to perform something similar to an Awakening Ceremony, with the activation of this it was no surprise that my energy was depleted before even starting to count the milliseconds, fortunately, the endless vitality coming from the Blessing of the Goddess of Life and Lorraine started pouring her energy into Silvia before it was passed on to me.

With so much extra energy I was able to activate the Ceremony of Awakening, but I wasn't trying to turn this World Tree into a servant of mine or part of my companions, so I only partially utilized this Ceremony of Awakening to fuse the Spirit together with its body.

This greatly eased the burden on me, I managed to activate the Ceremony and countless magic circles appeared around the World Tree, from these magic circles the various streams of energy were being drawn into the World Tree connecting with it once more.

I could feel the spirit of the World Tree becoming one with its body once more, the energies being channeled through my body were all taken away at once when the Awakening Ceremony was stopped midway through.

For a few seconds, I felt the spirit of the World Tree wake up and expand its power leaving my mind blank unable to comprehend the absurd amount of information passing through it, a cyclone of energy formed in the clouds above as lightning shot out of the World Tree in hundreds of different directions, these rays hit various energy streams in the environment forcing it to connect once more to the World Tree.

"...." (Silvia)

I had succeeded, but suddenly the world stopped going dark when I lost consciousness with Silvia saying something I didn't hear.
