The second drop of Philosopher's Blood appeared above the golden egg and fused into the eggshell like before. The golden egg emitted a brighter light, and the ancient runes on it were more obvious. At the same time, Undine was hit by the same aura as before.
Undine closed her eyes in enjoyment. She could not help but breathe longer. This time, she felt the magic in her body boil!
Because of the intrusion of the aura, the magic in her body flowed happily through her body. Much of the remaining filth in her body had been cleaned up.
After a few minutes, the boiling magic in Undine's body finally calmed down. She carefully sensed the change in her strength. The shock in her heart deepened again. It was not an illusion!
The magic power in her body was even stronger than before!
At this moment, Undine could not suppress her excitement. She did not even notice that her clothes had completely dissolved because of the increase in magic power in her body!
"So this egg can trigger the effect of the Philosopher's Blood and prevent the recipient from being affected by the side effects?" Undine thought.
She would have liked to use two more drops, but it still hurt to see the Philosopher's Blood in the bottle decrease in volume.
One had to know that she had studied the Philosopher's Blood for more than a hundred years before obtaining it. She was the only one who knew how difficult it was. Moreover, the materials were very difficult to collect. It was probably impossible to collect all the materials in ten years.
"But overall, it's not a loss. Two drops directly saved me 200 years. When I collect enough materials in the future, perhaps I can come up with a way to replace the Moonlight Grass!"
Looking at the remaining Philosopher's Blood in her hand, Undine suddenly realized something.
She had just absorbed the aura of the Philosopher's Blood through the golden egg. Not only had her physical exhaustion from the past few days been swept away, but even her injuries had healed. If that was the case…
Increasing one's strength was important, after all, the current number of elves was really worrying. However, the most important thing now should be to restore the Ancient Elven Tree!
Although she was not sure if the effect of the golden egg would affect the Ancient Elven Tree, Undine had done many rescue measures over the centuries, but they had all failed without exception. The opportunity was right in front of her. She could give it a try!
If it could be as effective as healing her body, the great crisis of the elves would be resolved.
At the thought of this, Undine immediately picked up the egg. She felt the weight of the egg increase significantly. Then, without bothering to change her clothes, she opened the door and quickly headed for the Ancient Elven Tree!
In the center of the Golden Forest, an ancient tree almost twenty meters in diameter stood in the middle of the lake. Most of its branches were already dry and black as if its life had come to an end. The remaining part was also on its last breath. From afar, it looked like an old man on the verge of death.
If one looked carefully, one could see many almost transparent magic arrays around the Ancient Elven Tree. This was both to maintain the life of the ancient tree and to prevent outsiders from harming it again. However, at this moment, a yellowed branch of the ancient tree was turning black at a visible speed.
This scene seemed to have become the norm, but the elves who happened to be patrolling nearby could not help but feel sad when they saw this.
"Don't look. The Queen and the others will find a way. Didn't the Moonlight Grass go extinct previously? Then the Queen took out another thirty. I think the ancient tree will be treated soon."
"I know that too, but is there really hope?"
The elves left one after another. In the next second, Undine appeared above the ancient tree, but she still did not realize that she was naked.
Putting the golden egg beside the ancient tree that was a little black, Undine generously poured out a large drop of Philosopher's Blood.
When the Philosopher's Blood fused into the golden egg, even though Undine had experienced this scene before, she could not help but feel a little nervous and worried. If she still failed this time, she really did not know what to do.
Perhaps because too many drops of the Philosopher's Blood landed, many blood-colored patterns appeared on the golden egg. A moment later, the golden egg actually trembled. The scales on it seemed to have a life of their own, and more ancient runes followed!
This scene looked a little strange. A spatial array had already appeared in Undine's hand. If anything happened, she would immediately isolate the golden egg from the alternate space.
The golden egg expanded a little, which made Undine's heart clench. Soon, the blood-colored patterns on the egg disappeared, and the scales stuck to the eggshell again. At this moment, there were more runes on the eggshell, which Undine still could not understand.
"Knock, knock!"
Undine vaguely heard the heartbeat of a certain creature. Then, her gaze was fixed on the golden egg. This time, the golden egg emitted another strange aura, but this time, the aura was a little cool.
The silent ancient tree absorbed all the aura emitted by the golden egg like a sponge. When Undine felt this scene, her eyes were filled with excitement. Her expectant eyes kept sizing up the ancient tree.
However, other than the golden egg flickering rhythmically, the aura it had spread previously was like a stone sinking into the sea. The ancient tree did not respond at all.
Undine, who did not give up, waited for more than ten minutes. At this moment, she acutely sensed that the ancient tree's originally weak life aura suddenly fluctuated! She immediately spread her magic power to cover the ancient tree. Soon, she realized that there was actually life power fluctuating on the top of the ancient tree!
The pleasantly surprised Undine immediately flew to the tree. A small green sprout actually grew at the tip of a withered branch!
Although this bit of green was inconspicuous compared to the entire ancient tree, this was the first time in 350 years that the ancient tree had shown signs of recovery. It was difficult not to be excited. Moreover, this meant that her method had worked!
Moreover, in Undine's perception, the entire ancient tree no longer gave off a sickly feeling like before. After a hundred years of rot and decay, she could vaguely feel the vigorous power of new life. Although it was also very weak, this was already the best news!
In the Jadeite City, Slyph was arranging a forest patrol for the next month when she suddenly looked up in the direction of the Ancient Elven Tree.
Vieruodis, who was recovering from the observation deck, interrupted the magic circle. As she stood up, the door opened and Galadriel walked in.
"Did you feel it too?"
Vieruodis nodded. "It's the location of the Ancient Elven Tree, but this life force doesn't seem to belong to the Ancient Elven Tree."
