Chapter 393 - 392: Essence of the Yggtree
Two days of traveling later, Sol, Thorwyn, and Amber had drawn much closer to the Yggtree. If they thought it was massive from a distance, now they couldn't even take in its full height without tilting their heads all the way up and down.
But the sense of awe it inspired didn't come just from its size.
Sol paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and let the ambient energy surrounding them flow into his body.
[Absorbed faint essence of the Yggtree! Gained 10 Exp.]
"To think there's another way to gain experience besides killing. And I doubt that's even its main effect."
The closer they got to the Yggtree, the more abundant the mysterious energy became. It wasn't like mana, or psychic energy, or anything else he recognized. Mana could control elements, psychic energy bent the world through willpower, but this was something different. This was pure, endless vitality.
The system had called it the essence of the Yggtree, confirming his suspicion that it originated from the massive tree.
After absorbing it, he felt his stamina, mana, and even psychic energy recover more quickly.
Absorbing the essence of the Yggtree speeds up my recovery by about 20%, and a small portion of it becomes experience... though the amount is pitiful. I'd need to stay here absorbing it for years to level up once. But... this is from far away. What if I got closer to the tree itself?
He was tempted to try, but he knew that would be suicidal. The elves were already hunting him, and heading toward their capital, Yggmasera, would only make things worse.
"At least this answers a few of my questions." Sol gave a quiet nod to himself.
