Chapter 343: The Queen’s Relic

The five-mile forest road for the flying speed of the three True Gods was only as brief as a few breaths.

When the purple-green flowing light stream tore the fog screen apart charging into the Moon Lake valley, a blood-soaked and desperate battlefield immediately appeared under everyone’s sight.

Moon Lake was originally a freshwater lake about three miles wide nestled snugly amidst four sides of stark white cliffs, right in the middle of the lake bed was a flat small island where the ancient temple of the Elf royal family was built. However at this moment, over half the water surface area around the lake edge had been filled with corpses and rotting black mud!

Standing packed tightly along the lake shore and frantically wading through the shallow water flooding onto the island were over ten thousand White Bone Beasts, mixed with hundreds of Human-Faced Demon Spiders as large as windmills currently spitting toxic silk unceasingly.

The most terrifying thing was right before the stone bridge leading onto the island there was a three-headed Giant White Bone over twenty meters tall, assembled from hundreds of high-level magic beast skeletons, its hand holding a bone mace as large as an entire house bay smashing every blow down onto the silver light barrier around the island!

Crash!

The bone mace smashed down for the third time. The silver light barrier having originally been as thin as a paper sheet and cracked wide open three large crevices on the island peak immediately emitted an ear-piercing "shatter" sound like a breaking mirror, then exploded into tens of thousands of tiny light specks vanishing completely into the air!

On the small island in the middle of the lake, the remaining final five hundred Elf people, mostly old people, frail women and over a hundred small children, simultaneously fell flat down to the ground because of the backlash force when the barrier shattered.

Standing at the highest position before the stone pedestal in the island center was a middle-aged Elf man wearing a silver armor having been shattered losing one shoulder side, his golden blonde long hair covered entirely in fresh blood. He was exactly Eldrin, the biological younger brother of the late Elf Queen and also the biological uncle of Madam Cynthia, the person having led these five hundred old, weak clan members defending at Moon Lake throughout the past hundred years.

On the left wrists of Mr. Eldrin and dozens of adult Elf people standing in the outer ring all had a deep cut. Throughout these past three days and three nights, they had continuously cut their wrists extracting fresh blood dripping into the stone platform to maintain energy for the Crown of Life currently suspended above the altar, to the point everyone’s complexion was pale white like paper, their bodies swaying about to fall.

Looking at the final protective barrier shattering before his eyes, while the Crown of Life on the stone pedestal had extinguished its light and appeared a long crack, Mr. Eldrin despairingly widened his eyes, drawing the chipped longsword at his hip out blocking before the face of the small children crowd:

"All warriors still able to hold weapons, hear my order! Even if today having to explode flesh and blood dying right here, we also must hold back that monster crowd to protect the kids to the final breath!"

"Protect the kids! Dying in glory is better than living in shame!"

Dozens of Elf youths and maidens in the outer ring simultaneously raised their wooden bows and short spears up, their tragic death-swearing eyes looking straight at the white bone monster sea currently roaring charging up the stone bridge.

The three-headed Giant White Bone walking first emitted a shrieking roar shaking the lake surface, its two giant bone feet trampled crushing the stone bridge span leading onto the island, the bone mace over ten meters long in its hand wrapped full of grayish-black miasma struck straight from high above down onto the head top of Mr. Eldrin and over ten kids behind!

The toxic wind from the bone mace pressing down made Mr. Eldrin buckle his knees down onto the stone floor, in his heart surging up boundless sorrow when thinking the final bloodline of the Elf clan today would be eradicated.

However, right at the moment the bone mace was only less than two thuoc away from Mr. Eldrin’s head top, the grayish sky above Moon Lake suddenly tore wide open!

Boom!

A thunderclap exploded roaring rumbling as if wanting to tear in half the entire sky dome of the White Bone Forest! A dark purple Purple Lightning pillar as large as a whole ancient tree from the cloud layer carrying the heaven-destroying earth-exterminating divine prestige of a God struck straight down onto the head top of the three-headed Giant White Bone!

Before the stunned gazes of over five hundred Elf people on the island, the entire bone mace along with the massive body of the Giant White Bone just touching the purple lightning pillar immediately evaporated into stark white powder dust! Even the parasitic meat tuft in its chest was also burned by the Purple Lightning fire turning into black ash not having time to emit half a screaming sound!

Right the next moment, a brilliant purple-green flowing light stream descended from mid-air, smoothly landing right on the empty land plot before the stone bridge nose, blocking horizontally between five hundred Elves on the island and over ten thousand monsters down the lake.

Sane withdrew the right hand having just flicked lightning back, his dark-colored cloak fluttering lightly in the wind, his cold deep purple eyes sweeping over the monster pack currently halting abruptly under the water surface:

"Quite crowded indeed. Baby, Finnick, do we divide to clean up for fast or let me alone roast them all completely in one go?"

"Burning with your Purple Lightning completely then will evaporate even people’s Moon Lake water away you know." Kaelen standing beside smiled, then stepped up one step, squatted down and placed his right palm touching lightly onto the lake water surface currently being polluted by the black mud along with the toxins of the Human-Faced Demon Spider crowd: "Better just let me and Finnick clean up according to Nature’s way."

Hum!

A dense jade green Nature origin Divine Energy stream from Kaelen’s palm transmitted straight into the Moon Lake water bed. In just two breaths, the water surface having originally been muddy with grayish-black color suddenly boiled surging up, then quickly turned into crystal-clear deep blue color to the point of seeing through all the way to the white gravel bottom!

From the lake bottom, thousands of jade green plant shoots grew as fast as blowing, piercing through the water surface then simultaneously blooming into thousands of giant Purifying Lotus flowers as large as carriage wheels covering completely the entire lake surface three miles wide!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Following Kaelen’s hand wave, thousands of Purifying Lotus flowers simultaneously spun rapidly, tens of thousands of flower petals transformed into sharp green light blades shooting radiating out in eight directions and four corners!

Over five hundred Human-Faced Demon Spiders underwater not yet having time to run away had already been slashed through the hard armor shell layer by the flower petal rain, turning into debris pieces; the toxic fluid flowing out just falling down into the water was already filtered cleanly by the Purifying Lotus roots into nutrients nourishing the lake!

Simultaneously at that moment, right beside Kaelen, the tall, handsome young man with dark green long hair also stepped forward with a cold face! Looking at the holy land piece once overflowing with the joking laughing sounds of the Elf clan now being besieged tightly on four sides by over ten thousand filthy White Bone Beasts, Finnick’s eyes were as cold as ten-thousand-year ice and snow:

"Daring to use corpses dirtying my Moon Lake... All lie down for me!"

Finnick raised his right arm high, Blood Wood Elf Chloe’s dark red vine on his wrist immediately shot rocketing down underground, combining with three-tenths of origin Divine Energy creating a violent earthquake running circling around the entire lake shore!

Rumble rumble rumble!

The ground along the four sides of the lake shore suddenly cracked wide open into a deep trench line. From under that trench line, a dark red Blood Wood thorn forest wall over thirty meters high with millions of sharp thorns a whole thuoc long simultaneously shot rocketing up to the sky, creating a giant blood thorn encircling ring locking tightly entirely over ten thousand White Bone Beasts outside the lake shore!

Before the monster pack had time to react, millions of blood threads from the Blood Wood thorn forest had transformed into a blazing red storm sweeping across the entire valley!

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

Chloe’s blood threads precisely pierced through the skulls and chests of every single White Bone Beast, directly sucking completely dry all the evil life force inside the parasitic fleshy root tuft crowd currently controlling those skeletons! Losing the control, over ten thousand White Bone Beasts around the lake shore simultaneously halted abruptly then collapsed clattering down to the ground, disintegrating into harmless smashed dry bone piles!

In just less than fifteen breaths, the army of over ten thousand monsters besieging Moon Lake throughout three days and nights had been swept cleanly away! The lake surface became flat and quiet again, the Purifying Lotus flowers radiating pure fragrance dissipating completely the foul-smelling miasma smell.

On the small island in the middle of the lake, Mr. Eldrin along with over five hundred Elf people were still sitting dead frozen on the stone floor, their two eyes opened wide looking at the miraculous scene having just taken place before their eyes while forgetting even the fact their wrists were still bleeding.

Right at that moment, Grand Elder Sylphie along with the girl Ivy and twenty-five Elf warriors walking behind had hurriedly run up onto the island:

"Eldrin! Everyone! Quickly wake up!"

The familiar and life-filled voice of Grand Elder Sylphie ringing out made Mr. Eldrin along with all clan members startle waking up. When seeing the old woman Sylphie, the person having been caught away by the Silverport hunter crowd one month ago to cut open taking the heart, now not only returning safely but the eyes having once been blind for many years were also clearly bright, Mr. Eldrin was agitated to the point of dropping even the chipped sword in his hand:

"Grand... Grand Elder?! You are still alive! Furthermore... your eyes..."

"Not only I returned you know, Eldrin!"

Grand Elder Sylphie gripped tightly the blood-covered hand of Mr. Eldrin, pointing toward the tall large young man wearing the dark green long robe with black trim currently standing along with Kaelen and Sane at the stone bridge head, happy tears streaming long down her cheeks:

"Look clearly! The praying words of the past hundred years of our tribe have reached all the way to the nine heavens already! The supreme Creator of all Life species along with the Nature Deity and the God of War have personally descended to the White Bone Forest to rescue our Elf race already!"

Mr. Eldrin along with over five hundred Elf people simultaneously looked up toward Finnick, Kaelen, and Sane. The moment the gaze carrying dense origin prestige of Finnick looked over, the bloodline inside the bodies of the entire clan members on the island immediately boiled surging up, echoing a holy song from the beginning of heaven and earth!

Only the True God having personally molded the ancestor of the Elf clan from the first branch of the World Tree could make their flesh, blood, and souls vibrate to the utmost limit like this!

Finnick gently waved his hand once.

A gentle jade green divine dew rain fell down across the small island. The deep cuts on the wrists of Mr. Eldrin and the clan members immediately closed their mouths healing completely, the Elf children currently fainting away due to hunger, thirst, and fear also became rosy and healthy again.

"Lord... Lord of Life! Our supreme Creator!"

Mr. Eldrin was the first person to buckle his knees down onto the stone floor, following after that was the entire over five hundred Elf people on the island simultaneously kneeling dropping down to the ground, sobbing crying sounds due to grievance throughout a century of being hunted mingling with the reverent shouting calling sounds echoing straight up to the sky!

Tens of thousands of purest and most passionate jade green faith threads from the origin holy land area of the Elf clan billowingly flew up, one portion integrating into Kaelen and Sane, while the largest portion transformed into a blindingly bright light pillar pouring straight into Finnick’s chest!

Under the replenishment of the origin faith stream at Moon Lake, the rule seal layer on Finnick’s body again continued to crack breaking adding another patch, raising the total recovered origin Divine Energy level of his up to exactly four-tenths!
