The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 224 Breakthrough of the Seed of Life!
"This... what kind of power is this?"

A young elf warrior stammered.

There was an incredible light flashing in his eyes, and his heart was filled with awe for the Death Demon Tree.

The other elves around were gradually attracted by this mysterious and strange power.

Originally, the elf warriors were fighting vampires on the battlefield, and they were shocked when they felt the threat from the Death Tree summoned by David.

Facing the huge black tree, they seemed to be able to feel a power coming from the depths of nature. In this life-and-death battle, there was a breath of decay and vitality intertwined.

"He has the most fundamental and powerful natural energy of our elves flowing in his body!"

Another experienced warrior said in shock, "He can actually mobilize such powerful natural energy!"

As this understanding deepened, more elves began to look toward David with respect and hope.

At this moment, the Death Demon Tree continued to expand and spread, and its vines entangled the vampire Duke like giant pythons, constantly draining his vitality.

As the Duke resisted, the last trace of dark energy in his body was gradually devoured.

The evil laws accumulated over the years were unable to withstand this force coming from the depths of nature, which contained endless vitality and decay!

As more life energy gathered into the Death Demon Tree, adding more plant marks to David and him, the huge, eerie, yet vibrant tree gradually became more magnificent.

Not only does it absorb everything around it, it also seems to have become a part of the condensed will of all life on the entire battlefield!

The Vampire Duke felt an unprecedented fear, even though he was a strong man of the second ring.

But he had no way to resist this vibrant yet corrupt force in front of him.

The Death Demon Tree was like a ruthless hunter, constantly extending more vines to bind him tightly in place.

"Let...let me go!" The vampire duke struggled desperately.

But the vines, as strong as iron chains, locked him tightly, leaving him no chance of escape.

As his vitality was continuously drained away, the immortal power flowing in his body was also rapidly exhausted, as if it was completely torn apart by a powerful force.

David looked down at the Vampire Duke and put his mind into the Death Tree, causing the vines to entwine more frantically around the desperately struggling enemy.

As David continued to perform the Plant Mark, the huge black tree grew stronger, each vine emitting a breathtaking yet beautiful glow.

"Ah! No! I don't want to die!"

The Vampire Duke finally realized his impending fate and he shouted in despair.

He felt that the last bit of dark energy in his body was being consumed, and the invisible yet real uneasiness made him tremble all over.

He tried desperately to mobilize his remaining strength to fight back, but the terrifying force had already crushed his fighting spirit.

At the last moment, the little remaining immortal law in the Vampire Duke's body began to twist and deform, forming an extremely complex and strange new balance between the laws of battle and the laws of nature.

Unfortunately, this struggle is ultimately in vain.

In front of the Death Demon Tree, all his resistance was as insignificant as an ant.

Under David's will, the vines tore down like hungry wolves, devouring his vitality bit by bit.

At this moment, he poured all the natural power concentrated on the Death Demon Tree into it more abundantly, turning it into a huge green beam of light that pierced directly into the Vampire Duke from the air!
As the shock wave came at this moment, a loud bang and a dazzling light burst out, and the area seemed to be shrouded in green light.

The Vampire Duke raised his head in pain and looked at David and his Death Demon Tree. In the blink of an eye, countless vines pounced on him like hunters and completely surrounded him.

And at the moment of being surrounded, a violent and painful scream pierced the sky.

The Vampire Duke continued to roar, but he still looked so pale and powerless.

As more vines continued to stretch and entwine, powerful life energy from deep within nature was injected into them.

He gradually lost all consciousness, and the unyielding beliefs that once looked down on all living beings also collapsed and disintegrated, leaving only a lonely figure in suffocating despair and unable to escape the shadow of death!

Finally, under this extremely violent yet seductive and mysterious energy, the entire battlefield seemed to be quiet.

When the last vine completely merged into the body of the vampire prince, the once majestic and invincible immortal being could not escape the fate of being swallowed.

The battlefield had fallen into silence at this time.

All the elves witnessed the thrilling battle just now.

Under the powerful force of David and the Death Tree, the once invincible vampire Duke was finally defeated and turned into ashes, and the dark power he carried also disappeared.

At this moment, the elven warriors stopped what they were doing, focused their eyes on David, their hearts filled with shock and awe.

The huge life energy just now not only killed the vampire duke, but also made them feel the most powerful natural force belonging to the elves!
All the elves looked at David with incredible and reverent eyes. The shock in their hearts could not be expressed in words.

In this tranquility, an elder slowly walked out of the crowd, his eyes deep and full of wisdom.

She stopped and looked at David, frowning slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

After a moment, she slowly said, "Which prince are you?"

There was a gleam in the elder's eyes, and she felt the strong and pure natural force in David.

The elves around began to talk, many of them with doubts and expectations.

"prince?"

David was startled and realized what the elves had misunderstood.

The elven bloodline obtained through the system is absolutely the purest and close to the origin.

Even the true elven royal bloodline in this misty forest might not be as pure as his.

"I come from outside the Misty Forest."

"While I do wield the power of nature, I am not your prince."

David spoke in a deep voice, not wanting to be misunderstood.

All the elves were stunned, obviously not expecting this result.

The elf in front of him turned out to be an elf who had wandered outside, but the elven blood in his body was so strong that only the elven royal family could possess it.

So, the elf in front of me is actually the elven royal family who has been stranded outside?
The elder nodded slightly, his eyes showing a hint of understanding and respect, "No matter where you come from, you are an elf."

As the elder's words echoed in the air, the surrounding elves began to whisper, discussing David's origins and the powerful power he demonstrated.

The news spread quickly like a spring breeze, gradually spreading throughout the misty forest.

David settled down in the elven tribe outside the Misty Forest, and he found a time to release the elf Irelia.

Irelia was extremely excited to see so many of her kindred spirits. David handed over the task of external communication to Irelia, and he himself began to absorb the gains of this trip.

Relying on the power of the Death Demon Tree, he has completely absorbed the power of the vampires he killed and transformed it into powerful life energy.

David felt the life energy rushing and surging in his body. He closed his eyes slightly and focused on the changes in his body.

He silently recited the contract with the Death Tree in his mind, trying to transform these newly acquired powers into nutrients needed for the seeds of life.

As he concentrated his mind, David could clearly feel the absorbed life energy rushing into deep within his body like a tide.

The seed of life, symbolizing vitality and hope, began to tremble gently near his heart.

Nourished by this powerful and pure force, the surface of the seed of life gradually flashed with dazzling light.

"Now, it's time for you to blossom with even greater power."

David muttered to himself as he focused his attention on the tiny seed.

As more vitality absorbed gathered here, a warm and strong airflow surged from his body, soaking every inch of his skin like a spring breeze and rain.

Under the continuous infusion of this powerful energy, the originally ordinary little seed began to expand and become fuller, emitting an increasingly bright and dazzling light from within.

As time goes by, the seed of life is enveloped by rich life energy.

"Om-"

This is the response from the seed of life!

It is undergoing an unprecedented and important transformation!
David could clearly feel another breakthrough in his physical fitness!
He immersed himself in it completely and became one with the seed of life.

Next, a violent yet gentle aura instantly swept across, spreading to his limbs and bones, strengthening them to the extreme!

Finally, in that shining moment, the tiny seed that was originally only the size of a fingertip burst out with endless brilliant light and turned into a huge green stream of light.

The huge life energy merged with the green streamline, wrapping David tightly!

"The life seed has broken through... to the second ring!"

After a while, David opened his eyes and showed an excited look.

Now he is not only a second-ring blood wizard, but also a second-ring life knight.

After completing the breakthrough, David entered the Elemental Wizard Tower to celebrate with the witches. Today was destined to be another sleepless night.

The next day, the elf elder came again.

They have reported yesterday's vampire invasion to the Elf Queen.

The elf elder came because the Elf Queen wanted to meet David, the powerful elf who could kill the Vampire Duke.

David nodded, that's why he came here.

The surrounding elves made way and watched David, Irelia and the elder walk deeper into the misty forest.

The dense tree canopy blocked the sunlight, and a fresh scent filled the air, as if every leaf and every branch was whispering the song of life.

"We are going to the Elf Palace."

The elder led the way, "That place is the spiritual symbol of our people and the source of ancient wisdom and power."

As David followed the elder through the winding paths, he could feel the life force in the forest quietly changing, as if responding to the invisible but deep connection between him and the elder.

He could hear the trees whispering, and it turned out that all of these trees were extraordinary monsters.

"The royal palace has been regarded as the core of the elves since ancient times."

The elder continued, "Only those who truly understand the power of nature can approach that place."

After a while, they finally came to an open area and in front of them was a majestic, magnificent, ancient and elegant palace.

It is composed of huge and lush trees, each trunk of which is carved with intricate, detailed and story-filled patterns, telling the long history of the elves.

"Welcome to the Elf Palace."

The elder spoke, and at this time a team of elves came over to meet him.

This group of elves were dressed in gorgeous robes and held exquisite staffs in their hands. They were obviously the guards and wise men of the palace.

Their eyes swept over David, revealing surprise and curiosity.

The elder stood at the front, bowed slightly, and said to the guards: "This is Mr. David, whom Her Majesty the Queen wants to see."

An elderly elven guard frowned slightly, stepped forward, and looked at David with a scrutinizing gaze:

"Although your strength is impressive, we need to confirm your identity and origin. Only those who truly belong to the royal family can enter the palace."

"Although he is not a local prince, he has the purest elven blood flowing in his veins."

The elder said firmly.

"Let me do it," David said firmly.

He closed his eyes and mobilized the natural power that filled his body with the breath of life.

Taking a deep breath, he turned his palms towards the ground and felt the pulse of life in the earth with his heart.

As his thoughts unfolded, a green light gushed out from his palm and spread out around like a trickle of water.

The trees, flowers, and even the creatures lurking in the soil all felt this strong and pure life energy, and they began to sway and vibrate happily.

After a moment, some small animals ran out from the bushes, attracted by this natural force, and they circled around David happily.

This scene shocked all the elves who were watching. They could feel the powerful natural energy contained in David's body.

"It seems that he does have royal blood in his body." The older guard finally breathed a sigh of relief and exchanged glances with his companions, "Let him in."

A wide door slowly opened, revealing a magnificent and mysterious hall.

The hall is beautifully decorated, and every corner exudes an ancient and sacred atmosphere.

The walls depict important moments from ancient times of war and peace, as well as countless great elven heroes.

When David stepped into the palace, he could feel an invisible but strong call.

This was a summoning power that came from deep within his blood, and it actually caused the elven blood in his body to resonate!
Faintly, David could sense an ancient tree of life that blocked out the sun and covered the sky appearing in front of him, which contained the greatest secret of the elves.
