"Understood, my beloved master." Thorn Corolla Iola vaguely felt that as a "fragment of time" and "Akatosh's fallen scales", the dragon was very important to the lord. As for why it was important, she couldn't figure it out. But after all, since he is serving the "Law of the Golden Tree", one of the contractees of the 6th Dragon Break, Briar Crown Iola's personal and clan destiny has long been bound to the lord. As long as it is beneficial to the lord, it is beneficial to the territory. This is a simple truth that even a three-year-old knows.
Although the lord's small universe continues to recover, since the fifth contract, it has not yet been integrated into the spiritual core of the new female companion and manifested as a star in the small universe. Therefore, limited mental energy can only be used carefully. After carving the "Beast Blood Ring" for Esmerelda, there were still three crow hags from the Orphan Rock Tribe, and the Lord was not prepared to carve them all at once. He still has time anyway.
Accompany Thorny Crown and Iola out of the castle hall and walk under the golden tree in the front yard. There are stone circles and benches similar to those in Xueman Square built around the golden tree. Leaning against the stone ring, sitting on a bench, looking up at the lush golden trees blessed by the law, and taking a deep breath of the fresh and natural air, Thorn Corolla Iola couldn't help but feel intoxicated: "My master, the ancient saint Guangshu, what are you going to do?"
Everyone in Ximu City knows that the ancient Holy Light Tree is the common mother tree of the Xueman Golden Tree and the Ximu Golden Tree. And the ancient Holy Light Tree is considered to be one of the oldest creatures in Tamriel. It is located in a cave known as the Eldergleam Sanctuary in the volcanic tundra of the Eastern Province. To worshipers of the elemental goddess Genales, the ancient tree of light is a sacred entity.
According to the hymns passed down by the Nords from generation to generation, this tree was still a sapling when the ancient Nords came to Tamriel from the continent of Atmora in the late Mythological Era. But some people say that the Ancient Holy Light Tree is older than the hardest metal on the planet Nirn, so it is immune to damage from all metal weapons. He also said that to harm the ancient holy light tree, you must use ancient magic (Old Magic). Like many beautiful things in nature, the Ancient Vine Sanctuary is closely protected by the dryads. The sap of the ancient Light Tree is highly prized and can restore barren land or bring life to rocks. This tree has long been believed by the Pilgrims to be sentient, or at least responsive to worship, but the Nords are convinced that she has nothing to do with the Thester Tree in Black Marsh (please note).
The Golden Tree is an iconic holy tree in Xueman City. It grew from cuttings or seedlings (accounts vary) collected from the ancient Holy Light Tree in the early days of settlement. Ever since she took root in Snowrun, she has attracted countless pilgrims and turned the settlement on the Lonely Mountain into a center of worship for the elemental goddess Genaleth. There is also a well-known miracle: Amber produced by the ancient Holy Light Tree releases soft and soothing melody. Like "the whisper of the ancient tree of light." Or "Genet's Lullaby." What needs to be known is that all the magic power of Nien in this world is closely related to "sound".
Previously, the Snowman Golden Tree was struck by lightning and withered, leaving many pilgrims in despair. Priestess Danica Jiechun of the Temple of Genales asked the last dragonborn, our lord, to help repair the sacred tree, and gave the lord a Nettlebane, which is said to be created by the crow hag. A magical dagger that can cut the ancient tree of light. Carrying this dagger, the lord and the housekeeper, who were still brave, went to the Ancient Vine Sanctuary together, preparing to follow the method told by Danica Jiechun to retrieve the sap of the ancient Holy Light Tree to revive the Golden Tree.
"What happened next?" Thorn Corolla Iola, like everyone else, did not know the details of the Lord's old adventures that were widely circulated in Ximu.
"Later..." A brand new memory copy appeared in Wu Chen's mind out of thin air: "Later we met Maurice Jondrelle, a Brighton pilgrim who went to the Guvine Sanctuary. Temple Priest Danika Jiechun was shocked by his plan, so he prayed to the ancient Holy Light Tree, and soon two small saplings grew in front of him. I gave one of them to Temple Priest Dan. Nika Jiechun, the other one is planted in the flower pot of the old house in Ximu."
"So the owner did not extract the sap, but took the sapling." Thorn Corolla Iola asked again: "Where is the pilgrim?"
"Maurice later stayed at the Guvine Sanctuary. Later (after the collapse of the tower), I had no news about him."
"Sir, you should go to the Ancient Vine Sanctuary." The matriarch of the Shade Clan, Thorn Corolla Iola reminded the lord: "If your "Tree Ring" and "Bramble Ring" can turn the sleeping tree into a tree and the Heart of Thorns tree into the 'Tree Spirit Guardian'. Then you must have a way to transform the ancient holy light tree into the 'Ancient Tree Spirit Guardian' and migrate to Brookwood."
"Huh?" The Lord Lord was immediately touched: "Maybe it can be done."
By the way, when he planted the Heart of Thorns tree for the leader of Iola, Wu Chen used his original "tree magic ring": "Heart Ring of Secret Fire" + "Wild Hunt Transformation Ring" + "Tree Spirit Guardian Life Ring" " + "Golden Tree Ring" + "Sap Whisperer Bracelet" was slightly modified to get a new "Thorn Ring": "Thorn Heart Ring" + "Tree Guardian Ring" + "Psychic "Bottom Ring" + "Golden Tree Upper Ring" + "Dark Spirit Granted Ring" + "Magic Bracelet".
As for the transformation of the ancient Holy Light Tree, it shouldn't be difficult.
The mother tree that can 'mass-produce' golden saplings is of great significance to Ximu's territory. Like the war dragon horns that can knock down dragons.
After sending off Thorn Crown Iola, the Lord immediately wrote to the Brighton pilgrim Maurice Jondrell at the Ancient Vine Sanctuary, asking about the current situation of the Sanctuary and discussing the possibility of trying to move the ancient Holy Light Tree. The reason why I asked Maurice Jondrell, a Brighton pilgrim, was because he apparently had a bond of faith with the ancient Holy Light Tree. He might be able to hear the will of the ancient Holy Light Tree. The acting lord seeks the wishes of the ancient Holy Light Tree. Are you willing to move to Ximu from Guteng Sanctuary?
Wu Chen was indeed a little worried. After the collapse of the tower, Tamriel was torn apart by annihilation. I don’t know what the situation is like with the ancient Holy Light Tree.
The brass messenger of the Greystone Castle, the Puppet Owl, immediately set off, carrying the lord's personal letter to the Ancient Vine Sanctuary.
The Brass Messenger is apparently an adaptation of Dwemer Valmidium craftsmanship. This is not difficult at all for the mechanical master spirit dragon knight Ashtaret. Even Vojenac's brass mechanical horse has already been built. Carrying Fujuenak on his back and galloping back and forth, he no longer has to worry about being frightened by the sudden burst of dragon power, causing his hooves to weaken and foaming at the mouth.
The emergence of brass messengers carrying protective rings solved the increasingly serious communication problems in Ximu territory. After all, compared to the huge crisis of sending human messengers across the torn land and to and from the towns and countryside of the nine territories, brass messengers are really too cheap. As long as a small core of divine light broken crystals can incite the "Wings of the Void", it can swim freely in the sky.
Of course, the most convenient thing is always the portal. It's just that we are trapped in the current situation. We can't spend unlimited amounts of Holy Light just for trivial things like delivering letters and running errands, right?
"Master?" The housekeeper, who had finished her business, also walked to the dazzling golden tree: "Where do you want to plant the ancient holy light tree?"
"Ah." Wu Chen had already thought of it: "Next to the lighthouse on the Baihe River, that is the center of the territory."
"So the mill and the port have to be moved?" the housekeeper asked again.
"It shouldn't be necessary." Wu Chen said with a smile: "Although I don't know what the ancient Holy Light Tree looks like now, it must be very different from when we first met."
"Because of annihilation?" the housekeeper thought.
"Yes, because of annihilation." Wu Chen always felt that the ancient holy light tree might be the last puzzle piece of his "Ximu deck".
But plans can never keep up with changes. Before she could receive a reply from Saint Maurice Jondrell, "Snow Prince" Melanie, who had been living quietly in a warm and comfortable castle guest room, was in trouble again.
