Chapter 1007: Chapter 459: The Truth of the Mission
David watched Liya nervously from the side, silently praying for the success of the ritual.
However, just as the ritual was about to reach its climax, a shocking secret was suddenly revealed.
The projection of the Mother Tree suddenly emitted a dazzling light, completely enveloping Liya’s body.
She began to delve deeper into the powers of the Jade Divine Format and the Dark Divine Format, trying to find a way to balance these two completely different forces.
At the same time, she also started paying more attention to the threat of the Ancient God, striving to find a way to prevent the revival of the Ancient God.
In this process, Liya gradually discovered the immense potential hidden within her.
She found that she could not only master the powers of the Jade Divine Format and the Dark Divine Format, but also fuse them together to form a brand-new, more powerful force.
This power made her feel both excited and worried, knowing she must use it cautiously to avoid bringing disaster to the Cosmos.
Meanwhile, David always stayed by Liya’s side, providing her with endless support and encouragement.
He believed that Liya would overcome all difficulties and become one of the most powerful Warriors in the Cosmos.
At the same time, he also worked harder to cultivate his martial arts and magic, so as to better protect Liya and the Holy Hall in the future.
Guided by the Tree of Life’s projection, Liya gradually found a way to stabilize her Divine Format.
She began to communicate and interact more deeply with the Mother Tree, drawing wisdom and power from it.
The Mother Tree seemed to become her mentor and Guardian, guiding her onto the right path.
Through the guidance of the Mother Tree, Liya gradually understood the mission and responsibility she bore.
She realized she was not only a Warrior and Wizard but also a bridge connecting the Star Pupil Race and humanity, the Jade Divine Format, and the Dark Divine Format.
She had to use her strength to maintain peace and tranquility in the Cosmos, preventing the resurrection and destruction brought by the Ancient God.
In this process, Liya also learned how to balance her emotions and rationality.
She was no longer controlled by the powers of the Jade Divine Format and Dark Divine Format but was able to harness them with her will.
In a tense and oppressive atmosphere, David, Liya, and Liliana and their group set off once again on a journey to the Blood Source Sanctuary.
Their goal was very clear—to obtain the precious core materials from the Sanctuary, which were crucial for understanding the threat of the Ancient God and the secrets of the Star Pupil Race.
However, they all knew in their hearts that this action was by no means easy, as the Blood Source Sanctuary was filled with countless unknown dangers.
As they drew closer to the Sanctuary step by step, the surrounding air seemed to become heavy.
The doors of the Sanctuary were tightly closed, like a sleeping Giant, quietly waiting for the arrival of uninvited guests.
David took a deep breath and pushed open the heavy doors; the group cautiously stepped into the Sanctuary’s interior.
The inside of the Sanctuary remained as it was when they left, with those ancient books and scrolls lying silently on the shelves, as if time had stood still here.
However, David keenly sensed something was amiss.
A faint burnt smell lingered in the air, and the light inside the Sanctuary seemed dimmer than before.
"Everyone be careful; perhaps the Star Pupil Race has set a self-destruct sequence here," David warned in a low voice.
Hearing this, Liya and Liliana immediately heightened their vigilance, gripping their weapons tightly, ready to face any potential danger.
David began to search every corner of the Sanctuary carefully, trying to find the trigger device for the self-destruct sequence.
However, during their search, the light inside the Sanctuary suddenly became unnaturally bright, followed by a deafening roar.
The walls of the Sanctuary began to crack, and the ground started shaking violently.
"Not good, the self-destruct sequence has already been activated!" David shouted loudly.
Faced with this sudden crisis, David unhesitatingly unleashed the skill "Grip of Entropy Destruction."
His right hand was instantly enveloped in a dark and powerful force; he then waved it fiercely, causing a strong energy wave to spread outward from his center.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
The tremors inside the Sanctuary stopped, the walls ceased to crack, everything became eerily quiet.
David breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had temporarily halted the self-destruct sequence.
However, he also understood that this was only a temporary solution; they had to find a way to shut down the self-destruct sequence as soon as possible.
"Liya, try using the Jade Divine Body to link with the roots of the World Tree, and transfer the Sanctuary’s library to a safe place," David said to Liya.
Liya nodded and immediately started concentrating, attempting to establish contact with the World Tree.
A faint green glow began to emanate around her body, the power of the Jade Divine Format surging.
As her consciousness deepened, she seemed to see the vast roots of the World Tree, sprawling underground like Giant Dragons.
Liya cautiously extended her hand, attempting to touch those roots.
However, just as her fingers were about to touch the roots, a powerful force suddenly repelled her.
She felt a wave of dizziness and nearly fell to the ground.
"What’s going on?" Liya asked in surprise.
"Perhaps the World Tree is protecting itself, not allowing us to easily touch its roots," David analyzed, "But it’s okay, let’s try other methods."
