Chapter 1208: Section 1209: Sense of Affection
The dense green mist was carried by the gentle wind to all parts of the continent.
The specks of light fell directly to the ground.
Everything was being restored.
Angel even saw that these specks of light barely kept Popota’s collapsing body from giving its last breath.
The only thing that Angel found regrettable was that, even though he was standing closest to them, these light specks didn’t bring him any benefit. In fact, they didn’t even touch him.
Even if he intentionally tried to intercept them, the light specks would avoid him.
Seeing this situation, Angel could only sigh in his heart, perhaps because these light specks were only useful for the injured. Angel, on the other hand, had no injuries on his body at all. He could even sense that his current physical state might be said to have reached its peak since his birth.
All the old and necrotic cells in his body had been purged in the continuous recasting before, and Angel felt every drop of blood, every cell, was filled with unprecedented abundant energy.
With a strong physical foundation, Angel even had the illusion that even if he were to face an Official Wizard now, he dared to show how he could beat one.
Angel looked down and clenched his fist, the feedback from his muscles and bones, as well as the sound of air created by his grip strength, all indicated the earth-shattering change in his own body.
This transformation made him secretly think: maybe it wasn’t an illusion that his physical abilities had surpassed those of an Official Wizard; he didn’t know how strong his body’s strength actually was now.
Since these light specks didn’t benefit him anyway, Angel simply fell into deep thought about his own power.
As Angel focused on sensing himself, time slowly passed.
After a while, maybe half a day, or maybe one day, two days…
The falling light specks had disappeared, all the cracks in the land had healed, and the floating mist of light had vanished as well.
Even the blowing wind had ceased.
All that remained was the bare trunk glowing green.
It was then that the last of the trunks burst into a dazzlingly bright light.
With the bright light came surging energy floods, kicking up thousands of strands of white mist. Even Greerwu had to forcefully interrupt the process of trying to unlock hidden powers and fly away to the distance in the face of this energy flood.
Because of the light specks’ restoration, Popota had managed to halt his body’s collapse for the moment, but the energy within him that wasn’t his own had almost completely disintegrated, so he couldn’t flee. He could only forcefully press down on the earth to create a hole to hide in.
This energy flood was extremely fearsome, like light-energy buckshot scattering in all directions at great speed, giving the continent its final energy nourishment.
However, what surprised both Popota and Greerwu was that this flood, which could prove disastrous with the slightest carelessness for them, didn’t affect Angel in the distance at all.
Angel stood within the strong light, where light and shadow visibly intersected, yet he was unmoved.
The strong light came quickly and dissipated just as quickly.
When the halo faded, the “trunk” also disappeared. The space before him lay empty, with only Angel still standing quietly.
…
At this moment, if one looked at this sealed continent from the Void, one would distinctly see that the once massive tree shadow that shocked the Abyss had become countless rays of green light, shrouding the continent.
The powerful beings in the Void who had long since turned their greedy eyes here felt a sudden thump in their hearts at this sight.
“Damn! The True Spirit Force is going to be taken by the faint consciousness of the continent!”
As this thought emerged, all those coveting in secret began to take action.
They had previously assumed that the unknown strong entity who may have killed the Demon God’s True Spirit would take these True Spirits, so they dared not act and were merely watching from afar.
But now, seeing the True Spirit Force nourishing the continent, they immediately realized that perhaps the unknown strong entity had left.
Otherwise, why would such a powerful force be left for a dying land of Deathly Stillness?
If the continent was about to collapse, it meant that the continent’s faint consciousness was not strong, and it could not possibly take away the True Spirit Force in the face of that unknown entity. But now, the True Spirit Force seemed to have scattered throughout the entire continent, indicating that the unknown strong entity had gone.
They reasoned by analogy that if they were in its place, they would never leave the True Spirit Force for the continent’s faint consciousness.
With this thought, these shadowy watchers immediately couldn’t help but want to head to that continent in hopes of seizing the True Spirit Force.
Countless figures flew towards the continent shrouded in green light.
Each figure represented the pinnacle of power in the Abyss, including a great many Demon Lords!
However, when these figures tirelessly tore through the space, wanting to descend upon this continent, they discovered that someone had already “beaten them to the punch.”
And that someone was an entity they could not provoke, and dared not provoke.
…
“The True Spirit Force has completely disappeared?” Greerwu felt the surroundings, dumbfounded.
The air still faintly pulsed with the power of the True Spirit, but those fluctuations were already nearly gone.
It was only then that Greerwu suddenly understood that the series of actions the shopkeeper had taken just now were to disperse the True Spirit Force across the continent… Greerwu had no understanding of the continent, so he had no idea why Angel had done this.
Greerwu simply felt it was a pity.
Just a bit of True Spirit Force had fallen into its body, smoothing over its injuries and almost unlocking the hidden power within. If it could have obtained more True Spirit Force, wouldn’t it have ascended to the heavens in one step?
Greerwu’s fantasies were splendid, but it knew that with its current strength, it simply couldn’t contain any more energy.
Although Greerwu felt regret, since things had already progressed this way, it let it be.
Besides, the right to distribute True Spirit Force didn’t belong to it.
