Chapter 134: Spirit Tree (a) (1/2)

Elliot's feet moved fast enough to make it look like he was a gust of wind as he traveled through the endless rows of trees in search of clues. His right eye glowed brightly in a golden hue, and his head moved left and right occasionally.

He was using the power of his godly right eye on everything that came into his sight. A large amount of information was entering his mind, ingraining with his memories. As he was looking for clues, using this method was the easiest, fastest, and the best way to get it.

As he gained more and more information about this place, he realized that he was in a subspace, meaning that the area he was in didn't have any relation to the real world. The laws of this world were the complete opposite of the corridor and planet Xavier!

In this world, anything that has existed for a long time could develop a soul, including trees, plants, and so on.

To develop a soul, they must take in the spiritual energy present in nature. The trees in his surrounding could suck in the so-called spiritual energy naturally.

Moreover, once they develop a soul, not only does their intelligence increase, but they also gain a spirit mark, just like the ones in the center of his palm.

Each spirit mark carried a different type of power that a person can manifest after pouring spiritual energy into it.

While he could manifest wings but didn't have the spiritual energy to do so, the other could summon thunder, summon a hail of storm, and much more!

”Magic energy and spiritual energy are different, but at the same time, similar to each other, almost like two sides of the same coin. While both of them are energies that I believe anybody capable of controlling them could use to manifest superpowers, I can easily breathe in magic energy present in my surrounding. Yet, I can't even sense the spiritual energy around me.”

What to do to sense the spiritual energy in my surroundings? How to absorb it from my surroundings? Just what do I need to do?

Elliot's brows furrowed as he thought hard about it. However, he didn't have enough knowledge about this subject. Thus, he couldn't come to an answer.

There's nothing he could do except for exploring this place for a clue about the second trial and finish it to obtain rewards.

Trying to speed up things and cover a large amount of distance at a time, he pressed his feet on the ground and leaped forward.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Right at that very moment, the golden branches of a tree that was far away from him burst outwards, extending and swirling around the nearby trees, shooting towards Elliot.

Although the attack was too sudden, he was keeping his eyes open wide at all times, and his hearing was also sharp enough to hear the barely audible sound of something cutting through the air, and that's why he managed to notice them coming.

While still in mid-air, a small amount of golden energy surged out of his right foot, condensing into the shape of a plank.

Just at that very moment, the golden branches had reached near him.
