After learning of Elisande's purpose, Sarlayan scratched his head in shame.
"It turns out that unskilled teleportation will still leave this problem. I must pay more attention in the future. I don't want to be followed by the enemy and teleported home."
Elisande complained angrily: "I'm talking about you, you are obviously a demigod, why are you so careless about the arcane arts that the elves should pay most attention to? You are not the kind of person who knows the way of arcane arts. People with no talent.”
Sarlayan explained with a wry smile: "I don't have time. I am not an old-timer like you who has lived for tens of thousands of years. I can become a demigod at the age of less than a hundred years old, thanks to my concentration on breakthroughs in my early years." Strategy."
"so what?"
Elisande crossed his arms with a faint smile and teased: "Why does your demigod Dru Yin suddenly want to go back to studying arcana?"
"Correction." Sarlayan spread his hands: "To be precise, I am a Thornspeaker, not a simple Dru Yin... But this road has almost come to an end."
Due to his lack of talent in the power of death, Sarlayan did not intend to continue to understand deeply.
However, what Sarlayan has gained will not disappear because of this. The Blighted Realm, a subplane of death that can directly connect to the Shadow Realm, can still provide him with a lot of conveniences.
Rukhmar, who has been attached to the Blighted Realm for a long time, will definitely appreciate this.
"Let's not talk about my problems for now."
Sharlayan didn't want to continue being teased by Elisande, so he changed the subject and asked her about her situation.
"Grand Magister, how are you getting through your bottleneck? Is there any hope of becoming a demigod?"
Speaking of this topic, Elisander suddenly became interested.
"Thanks to the breakthrough insights you selflessly provided, I can already feel the bottleneck loosening."
"However, because I wasted a lot of energy on distractions in the past few years, I still need about half a year to re-solidify the foundation."
"Thinking about it, Malfurion and Tyrande's situation should be similar to mine."
Before Sharlayan, Azshara was the only one who relied on personal ability to break through the limits of mortals and become a demigod.
Obviously, Azshara, who was on the opposite side of Malfurion and others, could not share this precious insight with her enemies.
Elisande, Malfurion and others have been stuck at the final bottleneck for thousands of years, and it is natural that they will try to bypass the situation when they cannot continue to improve.
In order to retract the attention that distracted him and break through with all his strength, Elisande must re-solidify the foundation, and this will inevitably take a certain amount of time.
As early as when the Dark Night Empire still existed, Elisande was already the lord of Suramar City. Even Queen Azshara praised her talent for arcane magic.
As long as she saw a way forward, Sharlayan believed that she would be able to cross that threshold sooner or later.
"Arakkoa from Draenor..."
Through Sarlayan's explanation, Elisande knew the origins of the group of "birdmen" in front of him, and also knew which side of Suramar the island he was on now was located.
As an arcanist determined to explore the truth, Elisande's curiosity is not light.
Anyway, she came here, and there wasn't anything else important to do recently. She planned to go with Sarlayan for a while, just to gain more knowledge.
Under Issasande's surprised gaze, Sharlayan transformed into a firebird posture similar to Rukhmar.
In order to distinguish it from the original Rukhmar, Sharlayan's Firebird transformation has quite a few subtle differences in appearance from Rukhmar.
Despite the seemingly ferocious flames burning on Sarlayan's transformed firebird, Elisande didn't feel any obvious heat when he climbed onto his back.
"Of course..."
Sarlayan chuckled and explained: "Rukhma's powers are light and fire, but I do not have these two powers. The flames on my body are just superficial decorations attached to Rukhmar's incarnation. .”
"Besides, if it's Rukhma herself, she can restrain the lethality of the flames at any time, so she won't hurt her friends."
Carrying Elisande for a circle over the crater of the Lost Islands, Sarlayan used his eagle eye to see through the thick volcanic ash and saw Rukhmar sleeping buried in the magma.
After sleeping in Ardenweald for many years, Rukhmar's soul has recovered approximately 60% of its peak state.
After returning to the material world, she still needs a certain amount of time to readjust to her body and recover.
The energy contained in the volcano can greatly speed up Rukhma's recovery. As Ansu is watching their children outside, Rukhma can rest assured and enter a dormant state to concentrate on training.
Yes, strictly speaking, the arakkoa...or the sons of Aranka are indeed the children of Rukhma and Anzu. They inherited both Rukhma's light talent and Anzu's arcane talent.
shadow? That was another talent added artificially after Anzu swallowed the curse of Seth. Only the Skettis arakkoa could develop it after their wings were broken.
Before Shenzhenzi arrived, Sarlayan took Elisande, who had nothing to do for the time being, on a large tour of the Lost Islands, and allowed her to have close contact with the arakkoa for several days.
Contrary to Elisande's expectation, the two factions of arakkoa with different appearances were not as barbaric as she initially imagined.
It can be seen from their speech and behavior that these high-ranking arakkoa people should have received a good etiquette education.
Through Sharlayan's description, Elisande learned that the Apexis civilization that once flourished in Draenor was founded by the arakkoa.
In terms of strength alone, Sarlayan has already surpassed Elisande, who has yet to break through. But when it comes to knowledge and experience, Sarlayan, who is not yet a hundred years old, can't even catch up with this old man who has lived for more than 10,000 years. senior.
Due to the sudden incident, the arakkoa had never taken the time to reassemble the long-lost Breath of Rukhmar.
This wonder of great significance to the arakkoa still exists in the form of parts, and every arakkoa high-level official has stored some of the parts in his own space package.
After learning about this great weapon that had helped the Apexis civilization defeat Evergreen Grove, Elisande suddenly became very interested in it.
Anyway, they have decided to settle in the Lost Islands. After getting the approval of the crow demigod Anzu, the arow people decided to place Rukhmar's Breath on this small island for temporary settlement.
After the village was built to receive subsequent manpower, the arakkoa executives took out a large number of parts of Rukhmar's Breath.
The Skettis arakkoa and the Anhal arakkoa shared part of their preserved technology and knowledge with each other, and a week later they finally drew the model drawings of Rukhmar's Breath.
Elisande didn't know the idea of the arakkoa's construction of wonders, but her life for so many years was not in vain. She provided a lot of valuable suggestions to the arakkoa people with their inferences and pointers.
"I probably understand the principle of Rukhma's Breath."
Elisande looked thoughtfully at the giant blueprint that had finally taken shape: "Leave aside its lethality, even if it is successfully restored, how are you going to activate this energy-consuming powerhouse?"
Shadow Sage Seth and Shadow Sage Eskar looked at each other, and both of them smiled bitterly at the same time.
"According to documents from the Apexis Empire period, Rukhma's Breath is powered by an energy aggregation crystal called Apexis Crystal."
"After the Apexis Empire gradually declined, a large number of crystals preserved by our ancestors were lost and scattered to every corner of Draenor. It was precisely because of the acquisition of some of the Apexis crystals that the ogre Gorria Empire was able to Rise up.”
Sarlayan translated it for her in a way that was easier for Elisande to understand: "You can understand the Apexis Crystal as the diluted solidified well water of the Well of Eternity."
Elisande suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"I see. In other words, after losing the Apexis Crystal, you can no longer power Rukhmar's Breath?"
Eskar sighed helplessly: "Although it's embarrassing to say this...but, madam, it's just as you said."
Seth said with some frustration: "With our current capabilities, even if we restore Rukhma's Breath, we will not be able to exert its true power."
Aigis, the King of Claws, interjected: "So, we reached a deal with our benefactor...that is, Mr. Sarlayan."
"After the Breath of Rukhmar is repaired, Quel'Thalas will decide how to use this powerful artifact, and Quel'Thalas will also provide sufficient energy for the Breath of Rukhmar."
Elisande raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Is this really good? Rukhmar's Breath is of great significance to you, right?"
Aigis smiled and shook his head, and Rilac, the leader of the Awakening Sect representing the high-level Crow People, answered.
"Once upon a time, Rukhmar's Breath was primarily a tribute to our mother, the great firebird demigod Rukhmar."
"Now that Rukhma has returned to us, the meaning of this souvenir is no longer so important."
"In the words of Sharlayan, a common man has no guilt but only possesses a treasure."
The wise Rilak said with clear eyes: "With the current ability of the arakkoa, it is impossible to keep the Breath of Rukhmar. It is better to borrow flowers and give it to our kind high elves for safekeeping in exchange for the rich resources of Quelsa. Russ’s greater support.”
