Chapter 1214: Legendary Druid

Although the transformation was complete, the promotion was not. Abel still needed to craft a new rank 26 wizard rune. He couldn’t make any mistakes while trying. Rather, any wizard who experienced multiple promotions shouldn’t be making any mistake at this point.

The three rank 25 wizard runes inside of Abel became liquid that was merged with dimensional force and power of the Will. They then took the solidified form of a pen. Very quickly, three of the rank 26 runes were illustrated.

As Abel opened his eyes once more, he realized that the suppression force of the legendary rank was actually not much different from that of a rank 25 law-defying wizard. Still, he knew that as long as he was heading back to the central continent, he would still be able to verify just how much advantage he was gaining. He actually wanted to head back right away now, so he immediately activated his “Town Teleportation Scroll,” opened up a teleportation portal, and returned to the golden castle.

It was still nighttime right now. He could feel that his body was getting a lot lighter after he went out of the teleportation portal. It was a sensation he didn’t remember feeling with his angelic body, but he thought it was fine. He barely spent any time with his angelic body, while his human main body was the one he stayed in for the past few years.

Abel’s body began floating after he was out of the teleportation portal. If he wasn’t making a forced suppression so he could conceal his own presence with the transformation necklace, he might just have to make a forced suppression of all the elves that were nearby. It was truly a strange experience. It felt like his body was a lot lighter than the air surrounding him, but he was wielding much more power than ever before.

Abel tried to fly towards the training room for a bit more. He realized that he could use up his own mana as long as he was staying in the air. There wasn’t a lot he was using up, but the depletion was clearly happening. He couldn’t feel it while he was flying with his angelic body. The four wings behind his back were absorbing the energy nonstop while the storage inside the angelic body was on an increase.

The angelic body could only control his own power and not so much the energy that was nearby. His angelic body was helping him all the time to boost the light energy that was inside of him. Still, he couldn’t tell anyone else about it unless he became a legendary wizard himself. He was still Bennett the elf right now. It’s very strange. Again, although he gained all this power, he couldn’t show it to anyone unless he was training inside his own lab to figure out what the best techniques in midair were.

He only stopped when the sun finally came out. He made a forced suppression on himself and slammed his body to the ground. Only then did he realize something. Walking depleted energy after he became a legendary figure. Without depleting his energy, he might just start floating on his own. It was no wonder he was always seeing the legendary wizards of the Wizard Union flying and not walking when they appeared in front of him.

Abel felt like he was a baby learning how to walk. He didn’t like this, so he wanted to see what would happen if he was now also boosting his druid level. No, he wouldn’t have to do this himself. He’s never learned the training methods of the druids, and his best chance would have to be the Tree of Life. He started by activating that short-distance teleportation circle beneath him. His body started flashing under the movement of the teleportation light. He arrived at the large-sized teleportation circle of the underground basement and waited for it to be activated. His power of the Will was fixed onto his destination.

The guardian druid quickly greeted him as he arrived, “Good morning, Grandmaster Bennett!”

Abel smiled and bowed to the big druid. He then started walking into the Tree of Life Valley. The druid was wondering something. Abel seemed to be walking in a quite strange fashion today. It was almost like all his steps were very unnatural. Abel didn’t know what the druid was thinking, of course. He was actually too busy adjusting his body now that he was in a new condition.

Abel walked towards the tree of life and placed his left hand on the bark. The tree of life’s soulspeaker’s ability was switched on. At the same time, a scanning power was emitted from the tree of life and swept past his body. The power was very discrete. If he didn’t reach legendary status, he wouldn’t have felt it. He didn’t ask for anything yet, but he already received a message that was coming from the tree of life.

The tree of life made a direct request for 1000 green top-level gemstones, which Abel obviously wasn’t going to worry about. Before giving them out, however, he made sure that he was setting up a seclusion circle to conceal the process of him trading with the tree of life. He took out a small seclusion circle plate, which he placed at the side of the tree bark. He and the tree of life bark were not wrapped around by the seclusion circle.

The big druid couldn’t help but say, “Is Grandmaster Bennett going to be promoted now?”

He didn’t believe the words he was saying, actually. It’s only been seven months since Grandmaster Bennett hit rank 25. It didn’t seem realistic that he was having another promotion now.

While the big druid was still trying to make his guess, Abel was already putting 1000 green top-level gemstones at the root of the tree of life. The branches were extending from the ground while dragging the stones to the underground. Before waiting for the last stone to disappear, Abel was finally shutting the seclusion circle down to put away the circle plate.

Abel stood up straight. Meanwhile, the tree of life reached out two branches and lifted him up into the air. The big druid at the valley gate couldn’t believe it. It looked exactly like Grandmaster Bennett was about to be promoted. He had no idea what Grandmaster Bennett said to the tree of life, and actually, he hadn’t even reached his bottleneck stage yet. The big druid really had no idea what was happening. He just remembered being a rank 21 big druid a few years by, and as he watched where Grandmaster Bennett was heading, he was starting to have the urge of slamming head into the wall that was nearby.

No matter what the big druid was thinking, as it stood, Abel was already feeling the natural force that was being emitted by the tree of life. The natural force was swarming over to him fiercer than the last time. In a sense, it had already exceeded the threshold that his body could withstand. His big druid state just went from being at the beginner’s level all the way to the intermediate stage. After that, it was in an advanced state. In just 20 minutes, the druid essence he was emitting was no different from that of a rank 25 druid in the bottleneck stage.

The big druid standing at the valley gate was watching what was happening inside the valley. He had almost forgotten to let the elven royal palace know about this. He was too shocked to do anything else than to bear witness of the miracle that was happening to him. The promotion qi appearing from Abel was just starting to emerge. It was extremely intense for his second time unleashing the legendary promotion qi. He might think that the promotion qi would just be wasted like that, but when the promotion qi was generated once more, the tree of life began passing over a strange life force. It shouldn’t be possible for a second energy transformation to be promoted, but here it was.

The tree of life did have the treaty to keep an equal relationship with Abel. Also, Abel’s been doing a lot to protect the tree of life, so much so that there was even a time when he risked his life to protect it. The two depended on one each other for their survival, so in this sense, they would never back off from making each other as complete and bound to grow as they could. Again, if the other druids required a promotion, the tree of life would definitely not offer the same kind of help as it did to Abel. Green top-level stones were a must for it to replenish the energy it was using.

Abel was starting to feel the same pain he felt during last night’s promotion. It started from his skin, all the way to his muscles, bones, marrows, organs, and brains. He didn’t know that only 50% of his body was transformed after he hit legendary rank, and with every promotion, he was receiving next, the extent to which he would be promoted would only be 5% every single time. The peak he would reach would be 75%. That would require a lot of training he was doing to elevate his transformation process. The process was difficult, but once the transformation was at 100%, he would truly become an immortal. By then, as long as the energy was not depleted out of his body, it just wouldn’t be possible for him to die of old age. In a sense, that would be him reaching the final desired state of being a wizard.

Now, barely enough wizards could reach that state. There were a lot of geniuses born every few days, however. Every day, they would do their bit to race against time to seize more chances to live longer. However, as long as they were staying in any rank for too long, they would just die due to natural causes.

Once the last promotion qi disappeared, Abel was beginning to feel that the extent to which his energy was transformed was becoming 55%. The tree of life just grants him a new chance to be baptized by the promotion qi. It probably had to do with the fact that he had two souls. Other class holders wouldn’t receive this chance even if they were training two occupations at once. Perhaps it had to do with the fact that he now had two bodies and two souls.

Come to think of it, Abel never did anything himself to boost his druid levels. It was all the works of the tree of life. The guardian druid didn’t know the details, of course, even if he got the chance to witness the entire process. He was just observing and sensing the life force and promotion qi that was sweeping across Abel’s body. He wasn’t afraid in any sense, however. Rather, a look of madness and joy appeared on him very quickly.

As for why, well, the elves finally had their first legendary druid for the very first time. Before, it was common sense that there was no such thing as a legendary druid, but the curse was not lifted.

The tree of life was already withdrawing its branches, but Abel remained in the air. He did not get down. He realized that he no longer had to hide the fact that he could fly. He became the first legendary druid, so nobody would find it weird if he could now do something that no one else could.

Actually, he just realized that his suppression force was lashing onto the druid at the valley. He apologized and withdrew it while flying to the side of the tree of life to say thanks to it. To his surprise, the tree of life told him that it could no longer help him with anything for the next half a year. He realized that it was becoming a bit weaker. The tree of life must’ve used up quite a bit of its energy to try to help him just them.

The same promotion qi could only be used for one transformation. This was the rule of this world, and a great cost was needed to violate this rule. Abel was just starting to realize what the two-times promotion qi was doing to him. The energization he was doing to his body was already hitting the level of a rank 27 wizard. Under the treaty of equality he made with the tree of life, he used up one “fully recovery potion” on it. A purple light was very quickly flashing next to it. He could sense that the frail state the tree was in was already disappearing. The tree also told him that he was recovering.

For the tree, Abel didn’t mind if it was telling him anything private or personal. He didn’t have much chance to talk to the tree, so perhaps among the entire elven race, it was only the Moon Goddess that could hold conversations with it, and she was probably doing that only when she was planning to have a divine bestowment. Without any major incidents, she would just not expend her divine power for a bestowment at any point.

By now, Abel was already one with the tree of life. They couldn’t talk, but they could communicate by reading each other’s minds. Also, Abel enjoyed that the tree was always very honest and open to him. The tree acknowledged him and trusted him as a good friend. There were no lies and no deceits. There was only trust between two good friends.

Abel said goodbyes to the tree of life as his body flew out of the Tree of Life Valley. He flew towards the teleportation circle and returned to the golden castle.
