Li Huailin's words made Yavanah hesitate. Of course, she couldn't let anything happen to the queen, but she couldn't let outsiders enter the hall. This was a dilemma. Yavanah had never encountered such a problem before. She looked at her subordinates, who didn't know what to do either. They were all looking at her, waiting to see what she would do.
Yavanah frowned and said to Li Huailin, "Human, you have to think this through. You will become the enemy of the entire elven race!"
"Of course I've thought it through. If I didn't, I wouldn't have come here." Li Huailin smiled and said, "What, do you think I'm joking?"
Li Huailin exerted a little force, as if he was going to do something to Amelia. Of course, Amelia was very cooperative. She made a pained expression, but she immediately said to Yavanah, "Yavanah, don't mind me. This is the elven race's forbidden area. Humans can't enter."
Of course, Amelia was just being cooperative. She knew that Yavanah couldn't leave her alone. This made Yavanah hesitate even more.
"What do you want?" Yavanah thought for a moment and said, "What do you want to do inside?"
"You can see for yourself what I want to do." Li Huailin smiled, "Come, don't waste time. Don't leave. Follow me in."
Li Huailin could have gone in directly. He talked to Yavanah for so long because he wanted them to follow him in. This way, Yavanah couldn't inform the other elves. Actually, if it was just Li Huailin and Jade Emperor, they could just take the items and return to the city. However, they still had to bring Amelia out, so it was a little troublesome. If they were surrounded now, it would be difficult to get out. It was better to let the elves find out later.
"Follow you in?" Yavanna was slightly taken aback. She didn't know what Li Huailin was up to. Even Amelia was stunned because Li Huailin didn't tell her about this before. Of course, they couldn't communicate now. After all, she was a "hostage."
"Yes, all of you, follow me in." Li Huailin said again, then pulled Amelia into the Sacrificial Hall. As he walked, he said, "Follow me."
"Captain, what do we do?" a guard asked Yavanna in a low voice.
"I don't know what this human is trying to do, but let's follow him first," Yavanna said after a moment of consideration.
"But this is a restricted area. We are not allowed to enter," the guard beside him immediately said.
"We don't have time to worry about that now. His Majesty is still in their hands." "Stay alert at all times. If there's a chance, I'll go up and protect His Majesty. You guys go and rescue him immediately."
The guards nodded, then followed Li Huailin cautiously into the Sacrificial Hall. Of course, they could still go in and out of the outside of the Sacrificial Hall. The problem was that if they went further in, they would enter the restricted area. There was nothing special about the outside of the Sacrificial Hall. In the middle of the hall was a huge statue of an unknown god, and next to it was a statue of the previous three generations of queens. This was really just a place for sacrifices, and it was built later. The place that Li Huailin and the others were looking for was at the back of the Sacrificial Hall.
After going around the front of the Sacrificial Hall, there was a rather strange room at the back. The entire room was very clean, and there was almost nothing. The room didn't even have a ceiling. However, when they looked up, they could see a blue barrier that seemed to be formed by some magic formation. The moonlight seemed to be condensed by this barrier, and it was concentrated in the middle of the room. In the middle of the room was a strange crystal. Half of it was buried in the ground, and the top part of the exposed part happened to be illuminated by the beam of moonlight. Perhaps because of the moonlight, the crystal was emitting a blue light, illuminating the whole room.
It was obvious that Yavanna and the others had never been here before. Seeing this strange scene, they were slightly stunned. Although they had been guarding this place for decades, they had never seen what they were guarding.
"Where is it?" Li Huailin's voice woke up the few people who were observing the room. Seeing that Li Huailin seemed to be threatening Amelia, Amelia also made a few pained expressions and pointed to the crystal. In fact, she was telling Li Huailin that the crystal was a teleportation tool.
Of course, Li Huailin immediately understood what Amelia meant. He looked at Yavanna and the others, and said directly, "Summon you to go in first, and then the rest of you follow. After going in, go a little further away from the teleportation point. As you can see, we have two people here, and we can talk from a distance. Don't think about ambushing me from below."
"…" Yavanna thought about doing that, but she also knew that adventurers could talk from a distance. Since there was no chance now, she could only listen to Li Huailin. Hence, the Jade Summoning Emperor stepped forward and reached out to touch the crystal. As soon as his hand touched the crystal, a white light flashed, and the Jade Summoning Emperor disappeared in front of Li Huailin.
Then, of course, according to Li Huailin's arrangements, the elven guards took turns touching the crystal, and then disappeared in front of Li Huailin one by one. After the last Yavanna disappeared, Amelia immediately spoke.
"Why did you ask them to follow us?" Amelia asked anxiously.
"Eh?" Li Huailin was slightly taken aback. "Then what do we do with them? Let them follow us. At least they can't call for other people."
"…" Amelia looked at Li Huailin for a long time without saying a word. Then, he held his forehead. "I forgot to tell you, the entire Sacrificial Hall is protected by a magic formation. As soon as someone enters, the alarm will be triggered. So, we don't have to worry about them notifying others …"
"I …" Li Huailin facepalmed. He finally knew why Amelia and the guards were staring at him strangely. It turned out that no matter what he did, he would be discovered. It was really stupid to let them follow him.
"Forget it. It's too late to say anything now. I think everyone is rushing over here. We have to hurry." Amelia knew that it wasn't the time to talk about this, so he immediately said.
At this moment, the Jade Summoning Emperor confirmed in the party channel. Of course, Li Huailin immediately brought Amelia to touch the crystal. Then, a white light flashed, and Li Huailin suddenly felt the light around him weaken. Although it was night outside, the crystal was still very bright. However, it was a little dark inside. Fortunately, the Jade Summoning Emperor had already activated the illumination spell.
With the illumination spell, Li Huailin also looked at his surroundings. First of all, they were definitely inside a tree, because they were surrounded by green vines. The vines were intertwined, forming a space in the middle. Of course, what immediately attracted Li Huailin's attention was the purple thing in front of them. It looked like a huge heart …
Yes, Li Huailin didn't expect to see something that looked like a heart here. This heart was really huge, and it was suspended in the air like a peach. There were a lot of vines above it, as if they were hanging on to the heart. It also seemed like the vines grew out of the heart, as if they were blood vessels.
Li Huailin estimated the diameter of the heart to be more than thirty meters. Li Huailin and the others looked like puppets standing below it. Moreover, this purple heart was still slowly trembling up and down, as if it was beating. There was also a beam of green light in the heart, as if it was being transmitted to the vines above, and then it felt like it was being transported out.
"Heavens …" Li Huailin also didn't expect to see this thing. Wasn't this the core of a tree? How come even plants could grow hearts now? This was really too much of a spirit. Of course, this was a game, after all, so it was normal for something unscientific to happen. Li Huailin only sighed in admiration at this scene.
It was also the first time Yavanna and the others came here, and it was also the first time they saw this huge heart. Of course, they were shocked by this thing, and they all looked up in astonishment, forgetting about being vigilant before.
"This is the core of the World Tree?" Li Huailin confirmed with Amelia.
"En, yes." Amelia nodded.
"That's good, at least the first step is achieved. But the problem now is … what do we do next?" Li Huailin said. "The core is here, but how do we get the pure life essence? So, let's ask your sword. "
The Jade Emperor nodded, then took out the Sword of Life, and said to her, "We have reached the core of the Tree of Life. How do we complete the quest now?"
Yavanna and the others looked at the Jade Emperor in shock. What's wrong with this human? Why is he suddenly talking to a sword? Amelia obviously didn't know what was going on, so she couldn't be surprised. She immediately summoned the Jade Emperor, and a red light flashed, and a figure appeared beside her.
