Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 1065: Chapter 488: Ancestor Tree Abyssal Corruption

"Let me do it," the Elf Elder said, "We have an ancient Natural Resonance Ceremony that can verify whether the Ancestor Tree has been tainted by the Abyss."

Under the guidance of the Elf Elder, the exploration team and Isabelle came to the root of the Ancestor Tree.

The Elder began to softly chant ancient spells, his fingers gently tracing the bark of the Ancestor Tree, as if communicating with it.

As the spell was chanted, the trunk of the Ancestor Tree began to emit a faint glow.

The glow seemed to come alive, slowly flowing on the trunk and eventually gathering at the root of the Ancestor Tree.

The Elf Elder furrowed his brow, his expression becoming exceptionally grave.

"The core of the Ancestor Tree... has bred Abyss Worms," he said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Isabelle trembled slightly.

She couldn’t believe this truth, but the Elder’s words felt like a heavy hammer striking her mind.

"We must destroy the anchor point quickly, or the Ancestor Tree will be completely consumed by the Abyss," Mi Wei said, "Isabelle, please trust us, we will not let the Elf Race lose the Ancestor Tree."

Isabelle took a deep breath, she looked at the Ancestor Tree before her, determination flashing in her eyes.

"I will help you, but please be careful not to harm the other parts of the Ancestor Tree."

Led by Isabelle, the exploration team arrived at the depths of the Ancestor Tree’s roots.

There was a hidden cave there, and the anchor point was located within the cave.

The cave was filled with a rich magical aura, but was also tainted with the darkness and evil of the Abyss.

David stepped up to the anchor point, taking a deep breath, preparing to destroy it.

However, at that moment, he suddenly felt a weak ripple emanating from the core of the Ancestor Tree.

This ripple was very similar to the scent of the Abyss Worms, yet it was also different.

David was struck by a thought and immediately used the power of his Chaos Bloodline, attempting to establish a connection with this ripple.

With his efforts, an astonishing truth gradually surfaced in his mind.

It turned out that the Elder Council had been secretly planning this conspiracy thousands of years ago.

To control the entire continent, they buried the seeds of Abyss corruption at the roots of the Ancestor Tree without hesitation.

These seeds quietly grew inside the Ancestor Tree, eventually evolving into Abyss Worms.

The existence of the anchor point was meant to accelerate this process, allowing abyssal forces to thoroughly taint the Ancestor Tree and the entire Elf Race.

David shared this truth with the members of the exploration team and they were all shocked.

Isabelle was even more furious, never imagining the Elder Council would do such a despicable thing to the Ancestor Tree.

"We must destroy the anchor point, and also cleanse the Abyss Worms within the Ancestor Tree," David said, "I have a way to assimilate these worms, but this process may trigger the Ancestor Tree’s memories, we need to be prepared."

With the assistance of Isabelle and the Elf Elder, David began the process of assimilating the Abyss Worms.

He closed his eyes, and the power within him began to surge, the chaos bloodline forcefully clashing with the abyssal aura inside the worms.

As time passed, the worms began to gradually shrink, eventually transforming into a mass of black energy, which was consumed by David’s chaos bloodline.

However, during this process, the trunk of the Ancestor Tree started to display ancient scenes: these were images depicting the Elder Council burying the seeds of corruption at the root of the Ancestor Tree thousands of years ago.

Isabelle and the Elf Elder watched these scenes, fury and sorrow filling their eyes.

They never thought their ancestors would suffer such betrayal and harm.

When the last scene disappeared, David had completed the assimilation of the Abyss Worms.

He opened his eyes, feeling as if his whole body’s energy had been elevated.

He sensed that a mysterious connection had been established between him and the Ancestor Tree, as if he could feel the tree’s joys and sorrows.

"We succeeded," David said, "But this is just the beginning, we still need to move forward, to unveil the true face of the Elder Council and save the continent."

The members of the exploration team nodded, knowing the road ahead was filled with the unknown and danger.

But as long as they remain united and forge ahead bravely, they will surely overcome all difficulties, defending the peace and tranquility of this land. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

With the Abyss Worms assimilated by David, the exploration team and Elf Race members felt slightly relieved.

However, they knew the true challenge was just beginning.

To completely stop the abyssal corruption, they must destroy the anchor point located at the root of the Ancestor Tree.

Isabelle stood before the Ancestor Tree, her eyes full of resolve and determination.

She understood what this decision meant for the Elf Race, but she also knew it was for the protection of their homeland and kin.

"We must destroy the anchor point," Isabelle’s voice was clear and powerful, "But before that, we need to ensure the safety of the Ancestor Tree and the Elf Race."

Annie stepped forward, gathering a dazzling Holy Light in her hand.

This Holy Light emitted a warm and healing aura, seemingly capable of dispelling all darkness and evil.

"Let me heal those Elves corrupted by the Abyss," Annie said, "Though their bodies were harmed, their minds remain pure."

As Annie’s Holy Light spread over the injured Elves, their wounds began to heal quickly, and their complexions gradually returned to rosiness.

The Elves looked at Annie gratefully, their eyes full of respect and thankfulness.
