Deep within the world of owls, concealed among giant rocks and dense forests, in a dimly lit underground palace, the female Corpse King Min Len sits quietly on her throne, her gaze piercing through the darkness like the coldest stars in the night sky. In the corners of the palace, groups of Necromancers silently gather, their eyes shimmering with a desolate yet eager light, awaiting the commands of the female Corpse King.
A strange smile hangs on Min Len's face as she lightly taps the armrest of the throne with her fingers, seemingly contemplating some important plan.
She has been quietly regaining her strength in a hidden place, silently observing the movements of "The world of owls." She realizes that she needs time and more power to once again confront "Yunyi" and "towering tree."
Therefore, she begins secretly cultivating a new army of "Necromancers" and seeks opportunities to break the barrier of "towering tree."
More than half a year ago, she had the Necromancers search for ancient trees over a hundred years old, and infused them with the power of the Necromancers, subtly contaminating the soil within The world of owls, repeating this continuously. Yunyi and others did not notice anything wrong.
Today, she finally shook a part of the base of the towering tree, weakening a portion of its barrier, giving her an opportunity.
Min Len's eyes flashed with determination, "It's time to take action. We must strike first before Yunyi and his companions realize."
In a dark and dense forest, Min Len used its power to silently dig a tunnel leading to the base of the towering tree.
Her figure almost blended into the darkness, only when the moonlight occasionally shone through the treetops, could one vaguely see her pale and indifferent face.
After reaching the base of the towering tree, the Min Len began to slowly erode the roots of the tree with her dark power. Her palm pressed against the roots, and the surrounding air was filled with an eerie and chilling atmosphere. As time passed, a part of the tree's roots began to wither, and the power of the barrier weakened, but all these changes were extremely subtle, even the most sensitive beings would find it difficult to perceive.
At the same time, Yunyi and his team were conducting their daily training and patrols elsewhere, completely unaware of the actions of the Min Len. Yunyi often felt a slight unease, but couldn't quite pinpoint the reason. During a patrol mission, they arrived near the towering tree, and Yunyi couldn't help but stop and look up at this massive tree that supported the barrier of The world of owls.
"This tree seems a bit off," Yunyi frowned, his intuition telling him that the towering tree was undergoing some kind of unnoticed change.
Iron bull also noticed Yunyi's abnormality and asked, "Yunyi master, have you sensed something?"
Yunyi remained silent for a while and finally decided, "We need to inspect towering tree more carefully to ensure it has not been threatened. I have a foreboding feeling."
So, Yunyi led the team to carefully inspect towering tree. They searched for any possible signs of abnormality, from the color of the leaves to the moisture of the soil, not letting any detail escape their notice. However, due to the extremely covert methods of the Min Len, they did not initially find any obvious abnormalities.
Yunyi and others, who were unaware of the reason, mistakenly believed that the weakening of the towering tree was due to the passing of the Xuantian Emperor. Therefore, they directed their efforts towards researching how to revive the towering tree.
Gathering beneath the towering tree, Yunyi and his companions wore deeply worried expressions. Since discovering the abnormality of the towering tree, they had been searching for the cause, but could not find a definite explanation. It wasn't until Yunyi discovered some forgotten ancient texts and symbols near the roots of the great tree that seemed to be closely related to the power of the towering tree.
"These symbols... they are ancient protective spells, used to strengthen barriers and expel evil," Yunyi said softly, excitement shining in his eyes.
Iron bull raised his battle-axe and said firmly, "Then let's use these spells to reinforce towering tree, and protect our home."
Purple Clouds nodded in agreement, her hand gently touching the trunk of the big tree, as if she could feel its inner life force, "We must act quickly, time waits for no one."
Liufei and Xiao Jin also expressed their support, and they began to follow the ancient instructions, preparing for a ritual to awaken the power deep within the towering tree. This process required extremely high concentration and precise operation, as any slight mistake could lead to the failure of the ritual.
During the preparation for the ritual, Yunyi and his companions delved deep into the study of ancient texts and symbols, interpreting them one by one in the hope of finding a way to strengthen the towering tree and restore its vitality. As night fell, they lit incense under the great tree, forming a large protective circle, and the ritual officially began.
Yunyi stood at the forefront, holding an ancient scroll and beginning to chant incantations. Iron bull, Purple Clouds, Liufei, and Xiao Jin each stood at one of the four points of the protective circle, holding a gemstone inscribed with runes, channeling their power toward the towering tree.
As the incantation of the Yunyi spell was chanted, faint glimmers of light emanated from them, gradually converging towards the towering tree. The ancient symbols on the trunk of the tree also began to glow, as if responding to their summons.
At this moment, the entire forest was enveloped in a mysterious and tranquil atmosphere. The surrounding animals were silent, seemingly also observing this unusual ritual.
As time passed, the light of the big tree became brighter and brighter, and the entire canopy seemed to be surrounded by a soft glow. Yunyi and the others could feel a powerful life force surging from deep within the big tree, spreading outwards along the roots, even nourishing and revitalizing the land of The world of owls at that moment.
The ceremony lasted the whole night, until the first light of dawn shone upon the big tree the next morning, Yunyi ceased his chanting. With the final words of his incantation, the entire protective circle and the big tree simultaneously emitted a soft sound, like a contented sigh.
The radiance of the towering tree gradually receded, but its powerful vitality still permeated the air. Yunyi and his companions felt an unprecedented exhaustion, but their hearts were filled with joy and satisfaction. They had successfully completed the ritual, not only strengthening the power of the towering tree, but also injecting new vitality into the protective barrier of the world of owls.
"We did it," Yunyi said softly, looking at the more vibrant towering tree in front of him.
Iron bull waved his battle axe and laughed, "Yes, we did it! It seems this time we don't need to protect our homeland through battle."
Purple Clouds, Liufei, and Xiao Jin also smiled, gathering around the towering tree that symbolized the vitality of The world of owls, filled with hope and anticipation for the future.
