Chapter 294: The Special Lunar Spring Essence

“Use the Lunar Spring Essence to create undead warriors?!” Rinloran’s eyes turned cold as ice. The Lunar Spring and Tree of Life were sacred objects for all elves. For the Undead Bishop to use such a method to create undead was complete sacrilege.

“So we are moving as soon as the undead dragon leaves?”

Stingham muttered, “I guess it really isn’t that dangerous then.”

“Indeed. Unfortunately, the whereabouts of Undead Bishop Tangwen are unknown. If he appears, then we will be in great danger,” Lotton replied.

“……” Stingham suddenly fell silent.

After drinking the water for several minutes, the massive undead dragon quickly flew away.

But upon listening carefully, the four of them and the Dark Queen Mermaid could still hear the sound of wind whistling in the distance. Although it was no longer visible to them, it was still patrolling nearby.

“Please don’t let us encounter Undead Bishop Tangwen, please don’t let us encounter Undead Bishop Tangwen,” Stingham prayed repeatedly.

The undead dragon came back to drink two more times before ultimately departing to patrol elsewhere. As Ayrin heard the sound of wind grow fainter and fainter, he asked, “Are we good to go?”

“Yes!” Lotton responded without an ounce of hesitation as he rushed forward while making sure to not use any arcane particles.

Ayrin and Rinloran followed suit, and then Stingham, who was still muttering prayers, “Please don’t let us encounter Undead Bishop Tangwen, please, please…”

“So this is Lunar Spring Essence.”

As he approached the rushing waterfall, Ayrin felt an abnormally refreshing arcane energy surround him. It was extremely comfortable. As he traced the water back to its source, he finally saw the true form of the ice blue flame releasing Lunar Spring Essence. It was a transparent crystal which looked like a blossomed flower.

“What’s wrong Rinloran?” Ayrin abruptly cried out.

At this moment, silvery white particles of light began to emerge atop Rinloran’s skin. It looked as if his body was being encased by countless tiny gemstones.

“It’s alright. This is merely the effect of the Lunar Spring Essence,” Rinloran responded as he took a deep breath.

Just being touched by the light released by the Lunar Spring Essence had caused his body to already undergo countless minor changes. Just how much greater of a transformation would he undergo if he was baptised in the Lunar Spring itself?

Upon hearing Rinloran’s reply, Ayrin immediately calmed back down as he turned towards Lotton and asked, “Are we just going to climb up and take it?”

“Yes,” Lotton nodded. Lotton also seemed to be undergoing changes as his body began to smoke. It was as if something within his body was being burned and purified by the light.

“Then I shall go and get it.”

Ayrin’s body flickered and turned into a rapidly moving shadow.

With a boom, the waterfall vertically split apart in the middle, causing countless droplets of water to land over and around Rinloran and the others.

Ayrin quickly grabbed the Lunar Spring Essence and jumped back down.

“Let’s go!”

As Lotton spoke, he quickly broke off several fragments from the Lunar Spring Essence within Ayrin’s hand and threw them into his mouth.

“You can directly eat this thing?” Stingham exclaimed in shock as he subconsciously swallowed his own saliva.

Boom!

Lotton’s fleeing body violently shuddered and then stopped as if he had become rooted in place.

Streams of dark purple smoke burst forth from every pore and hole in his body, including his eyes, nose, and mouth, completely enveloping him.

Without hesitation, Ayrin immediately grabbed Lotton and continued sprinting towards the black pillars and stone walls of the Land of Slaughter.

“Am I finally freed…”

At this moment, Lotton had no clue what was going on around him. All he could sense was that the foreign aura which had been situated within him abruptly burn up and disappear.

“Is this what freedom feels like?”

As Lotton finally regained his consciousness and opened his eyes, he saw Ayrin’s sweat filled face and realized that Ayrin was carrying him.

Rinloran and Stingham followed beside Ayrin.

Although it was clear that the three of them were clueless and wildly running around within the massive labyrinth like headless chickens, emotions still welled up within Lotton as a complex expression emerged within his eyes.

“Is this what it is like to have friends?” Lotton thought to himself.

“Lotton, you’re okay!” Ayrin shouted as he felt Lotton move and realized that Lotton’s body was no longer releasing dark purple smoke.

But right at this moment, the faint roar of a dragon rang over through the skies from behind them.

“Not good! The undead dragon must have discovered our theft and is coming after us! Lotton, even if you die, you must tell us where to go! Hurry!” Stingham abruptly screamed.

Lotton didn’t immediately begin directing as he instead turned towards Ayrin and Rinloran and said, “Hurry up and consume the remaining Lunar Spring Essence. Otherwise, the undead dragon will be able to track us through its aura.”

“Why didn’t you say that earlier?!” Stingham shouted in annoyance as he snatched the remaining Lunar Spring Essence out of Ayrin’s hand and stuffed it into Rinloran’s hand. “Rinloran, hurry up and consume it!”
