Chapter 578: From This Moment You Are Free…
Understanding that they had to move quickly, Vireline did not waste another moment.
"Then excuse me, my lord," she said, as roots instantly circled Aldrian and enclosed him like a cocoon. Immediately afterward, the roots buried themselves underground, carrying Aldrian down toward the base of the world tree.
Aldrian remained still inside the cocoon for the next fifteen minutes before it suddenly opened.
As his eyes adjusted to his surroundings, they widened slightly in astonishment at the beauty of the place. What he saw was a vast underground cavern, filled with enormous roots, undoubtedly those of the world tree. The size of the space reminded him of the underground hall where the skeletons of Long Shentian and Feng Xuanyan were placed.
On the walls, there were many energy stones, far more than on the upper ground. It was not surprising that so many peak-level energy stones were present in this area, as Vireline must have stopped cultivating a long time ago. Like other beings on the continent, she had been unable to break through to a higher stage of cultivation due to the formation of the continent.
With her cultivation halted, the energy had accumulated here for years. The world tree, capable of functioning as an energy filter, had purified the energy in this area. As a result, the underground space was filled with rich, pure heaven and earth energy, making it easy for the energy stones to reach peak quality.
The abundance of peak-level energy stones embedded in the cave’s walls gave off a soft purple glow, illuminating the surrounding space. But the stones were not the only source of light.
He saw a golden light spreading from the center of the underground space, illuminating the entire cavern. In the middle of the underground space, there was a large pond filled with golden water, which was the source of the golden light. At the center of the pond stood a massive crystal, which was actually the Crystal of Divinity, and its size was truly the largest he had ever seen.
With a crystal that size, Aldrian thought even a divine being would find it hard to resist. No wonder the divine aura could spread across such a wide area, since the Crystal of Divinity itself was this enormous.
