My back room sand table

Chapter 72 Undercurrent
  "Essence?"

Xiu Yi murmured.

These words are recorded in the same place as the stone tablet of the incomplete World Tree sequence.

"Essence, what is it?"

"The World Tree is also the source of the path to becoming a god? Isn't this a certain sequence?"

Xiu Yi fell into a daze under the impact of such information.

Certain ideas in the past seemed to be completely rejected at this moment, and my mind was filled with endless ideas.

"In that case, the end of the sequence I am taking is probably not the World Tree, but the source of this path to becoming a god is the World Tree!"

"Essence...Essence! Perhaps this is the source of extraordinary power?"

Xiu Yi felt that he seemed to understand something, but he was filled with even greater doubts.

"Eternal blazing sun, the light of the end..."

Involuntarily, Xiu Yi thought of the scorched earth scene in the world today.

"The destruction of the world and the end of the previous era may be related to the gods achieved through this sequence of paths!"

Xiu Yi seemed to see the world destroyed by the battles of countless gods, the end of the era.

Even gods died under such cruel war.

"In that case, will there still be gods that survived the last era in this corner of the world?"

"Is the birth of elves also related to a certain god?"

"Even the incomplete blasphemous monument that the elves came into contact with at the beginning was deliberately done by such a god!"

All kinds of dark thoughts came to Xiu Yi's mind, and the possible conspiracy and calculation among them almost made Xiu Yi feel cold all over!

The elves seem to be chess pieces controlled by someone hidden behind the scenes!

Tens of thousands of thoughts were finally suppressed by Xiu Yi.

What's the use of thinking too much?

Without enough strength, no matter how much you think, there is nothing you can do.

Without enough power, no matter how high your wisdom is, you cannot leverage more power.

"Power, I need more power!"

In the empty palace, Xiu Yi secretly made up his mind.

……

As time passed, the number of elves became larger and larger, and the number of extraordinary beings far exceeded before.

Sequence 2 elves continue to meet the conditions and ask Xiu Yi for materials and rituals to prepare for promotion to sequence 3.

"King, I ask you to be allowed to prepare the materials and rituals for promotion to Sequence Three."

On this day, another Sequence 2 elf requested to meet with Xiu Yi, hoping to obtain the materials and rituals needed to advance to Sequence 3.

"Okay, you have fulfilled the requirements. You can go to the treasure house to collect the materials by yourself, and then perform the ceremony in the temple."

There was no embarrassment, even if the other party wanted to be promoted to Sequence Three, which was at the same level as himself.

Xiu Yi agreed to this elf's request.

He doesn't seem to care that the other party threatens his position.

"No, I, what I want to request is not Sequence Three of the World Tree pathway..."

This elf hesitated, as if he had made some kind of determination, before he raised his head and said to Xiu Yi.

"What I want to be promoted to is the Sequence Three of the Sun Path - the Shining Sun Envoy!"

Ascension to the Sun Path!

The empty Hall of Life suddenly fell into dead silence, and the elf guards at the door couldn't help but glance sideways, as if they were worried that the elf king would get angry and kill the reckless elf.

Xiu Yi fell into silence, looked at this bold elf, and looked at him.

However, Xiuyi saw only clear stupidity in the eyes of this elf!

"not him……"

The stupidity in this elf's eyes was so clear that even Xiu Yi had to look sideways. He knows that this elf may have been pushed out by some existence to test his own elf!
  "Ha ha……"

A smile appeared on Xiu Yi's lips.

"How can the path to becoming a god and promotion in sequence be so casual?"

He spoke indifferently, his voice as before, showing no emotion at all.

"Yes, but the materials missing from the treasure house need to be prepared by yourself, and the rituals also need to be studied by yourself."

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Xiu Yi agreed to this elf's request.

The originally silent atmosphere was broken by Xiu Yi's words. The clear-eyed elf was overjoyed.

"Thank you Elf King!"

He bowed hastily and walked out of the hall.

For a moment, Xiu Yi was the only one left in the empty life hall, sitting on the throne made of paper strips from the ancient tree of life.

Quietly watching the leaving figure of this elf.

"Finally can't hold it any longer?"

Xiu Yi thought in his heart that the gap between him and the elves was slowly narrowing. Although he tried his best to control it, there would always be some people who had strange thoughts.

He had expected this.

Promotion to the Sun Sequence is a test these people put on themselves.

And what will happen if you don’t agree?

"They will resist, they will unite, they will... kill me!"

"This is because of the desire for promotion... and also the greed for power!"

Standing in the high position of the Elf King, Xiu Yi became more and more proficient in manipulating people's hearts, and could easily see everything behind these beings.

"It's just that it's still too stupid...it's too contemptuous of the path to becoming a god."

Xiu Yi sneered, feeling that the calculation behind this was too simple.

Compared with the World Tree Path, the Sun Path has an advantage that the current World Tree Path does not have—completeness!
  The World Tree pathway is incomplete only at Sequence Six, and there is no information about further sequences.

This is the real reason why these elves want to reach out to the sun sequence!
  "You feel like you can't surpass me in the World Tree sequence, and want to make a further breakthrough in the Sun sequence?"

Xiu Yi scoffed.

"madness!"

"Not to mention being able to surpass me, but the transformation of the path to becoming a god is not something that can be transformed at will like the cultivator's grafting method..."

Xiu Yi felt that such a plan was extremely stupid.

They despise the forbidden knowledge of the path to becoming a god too much, and they also underestimate themselves too much!
  "But, this is a good opportunity..."

Behind his contempt for this stupid plan, Xiu Yi's heart began to get excited.

……

A few months later, a commotion was heard in the Elf Temple.

boom!
  A huge figure broke through the temple, and rotten wood chips flew and scattered on the ground.

While walking, his body continued to expand, with air roots growing out of his body and extending to the earth.

Where the aerial roots extend, the vegetation rots and rots, and the fishy and putrid odor spreads.

The ancient war tree guarding the temple was entangled by the aerial roots of such a being, and then decayed and collapsed and scattered on the earth.

Decay spreads, intercepting all vitality!

"Why is there such a level of loss of control!"

Just as the elves were panicking, a green light pillar enveloped the decaying huge figure, and endless vitality descended.

Under this fertile source of endless vitality, the decayed figure began to expand unnaturally and extremely. Countless air roots grew out of itself, which in turn strangled itself.

The aerial root becomes stronger and stronger, and becomes more and more tenacious, until it completely breaks apart.

The smelly flesh and blood covered the ground with pieces of wood, and Xiu Yi walked over with unrivaled power.
