Chapter 441: Mysterious Tree, Athan's plan.
" You are a strange one, lad. So weak, yet you are powerful compared to others at the same stage level as yours...or perhaps..." Shaking his head, Uncle Frenze stopped staring at Athan and changed the topic, " Anyway, This sparrow will guide you to your reward. " Uncle Frenze waved his right hand in the air and a? small glowing light blue sparrow materialized that started flying around Athan while chirping.
" Follow this sparrow. Once you reach the destination, it will disappear. A guardian there will ask for this branch from you, so give it to him to enter a mysterious place. You will know the rest from the guardian. " Uncle Frenze spoke with a smile.
Right as he finished speaking, The sparrow started moving towards one of the corridors of the Wonder Hill Pavilion.
Seeing that, Athan nodded at Uncle Frenze before following the sparrow.
After following the sparrow through the corridor and arriving at another hall, Athan saw that the sparrow was hovering over a giant bald man in front of the doors of some kind of place.
There were six pairs of doors in this hall, and each pair of doors had a person sitting there just like a guard.
Athan walked towards the giant bald man whose height was approx 4 meters even though he was sitting on a large comfy cloudly chair.
There was a border seven meters away from him, and when Athan reached there, the giant stood up and spoke with a rumble, " Stop! "
He put his hand forward, but it didn't reach the border seven meters away from him at first, But it started stretching forward just like the Body chaos trait of Athan which allowed him to stretch his body parts.
" Token. "
Athan took out the wooden stick and put it on the giant hand that stopped just fifteen centimeters from him.
The giant took back his hand and inspected the stick before nodding his head towards Athan with a smile, " It's real. You seem like a newbie, so I'll explain to you what this is about. The doors behind me will lead you on top of a hill. There will be a mysterious, colorful tree with colorful spirits wandering around it.
The Tree has a magical forcefield within a five-meter radius around it, and you can sit anywhere within that range and start grasping and comprehend the mystical powers from the Tree.
As for the reward? It depends on your ability and talent. Sitting under that Tree will also calm your mind and soul and let you enter a tranquil state where your comprehension ability increases. So there is at least a 50% chance of getting something good if you manage to comprehend and grasp a sufficient amount of Chaos Enlightenment Tree's power. "
Athan nodded thoughtfully before asking, " And how many days can I stay there? "
The giant smiled widely at that question before speaking, " Hahaha, That also depends on you. The chaos enlightenment tree has its own will, and it will automatically kick you out of its forcefield when the time comes. If it likes you or is impressed by you, you can stay there for a longer time...hehe, possibly a year. But this is just a myth since none were allowed to sit under it for so long beside the person who brought this legendary Tree here from Upper Chaosverse. The best record is of Gaia Enchant Hill faction's previous leader; He was allowed to sit under it for six months. "
" I see..." Athan nodded and thanked him before entering through the doors.
" Good luck, lad. You feel a bit strange than others here, so you might be able to stay under it for a long time, Hahaha. "
...
Athan indeed arrived on top of a hill after entering through the door and saw a giant colorful tree in front of him.
He looked around and saw those surroundings were filled with a blanket of clouds, and only this single hill was in this place.
But the most surprising thing to him was the Tree and the so-called spirits dancing around it and playing on its branches.
" Fairies? " Athan muttered as he looked at the small and cute humanoid fairies. They were colorful with tiny horns and beautiful wings.
As for the Tree, Athan felt that it was genuinely mysterious. It gently swayed as if it was alive, and even small vines grew out of the Tree that played with the fairies.
' Interesting. ' Thought Athan as he smiled and walked towards the Tree. He felt really peaceful here in the presence of this Chaos Enlightenment Tree.
The Tree was twenty meters in height, and it was eight meters wide, filled with lush leaves and branches that glowed and sparked with different colors.
He walked near the trunk of the Tree and sat down with a peaceful expression on his face. He felt his mind and soul getting incredibly serene.
' Indeed, My comprehension power increased, and this strange, mysterious force of order and chaos from the Tree...It looks like I have to comprehend and grasp it, but before that...since my comprehension has increased, I might as well take this chance to research about that strange wisp I got from the mystical connection I had due to Abyssal Void of Fabrication. '
After thinking that, Athan started focusing inside his void region...
He took out the wisp from his soul and tried to sense deep into it.
The moment he did that, He felt the strange connection once, and his eyes lit up shortly afterward as if he found something interesting.
' This wisp and the voidlings...Hehehe, It looks like something tremendous is going to happen if I continue researching it. '
Naturally, he was excited about it and started experimenting on it right away.
...
While Athan entered the Chaos Enlightenment Tree, someone else actually comprehended the cloud of chaos from the latest batch.
That person comprehended the cloud of chaos in three days, and that was comparable to the previous record before Athan broke it.
" Hehe. I am going first. You also hurry up and join Athan and me. Chuckles...I wonder If he had caused any uproar there already? " Shiromi spoke with a smile as a white cloud hovered right beside her.
" Knowing him, He probably would have caused an uproar, hehehe. " Sen stated with a beam.
Tealery nodded while Arcued stated with pride, " Whatever he does is correct. He is bound to reach greater heights than fools here. "
Others were slightly speechless hearing him.
" Alright. I will not waste your time anymore. See you at the top. "
After saying that, Shiromi jumped on the cloud and few up.
Sen, Tealery, Arcued, and Theo were happy for Shiromi, but they also didn't want to waste time as they nodded before returning to training.
