"These rays of light …"
Qin Yichen's eyes narrowed. The Body of Mind Energy in his consciousness suddenly opened its Divine Eye and looked at the Tree of Life along the dim rays of light.
Under the gaze of his divine eyes, there was a part of the Tree of Life that was full of vitality that was in a withered state. That part of the branches gave off a feeling of death and desolation that was completely different from the vitality of life.
"The Tree of Life is withering?"
Qin Yichen's eyes were filled with astonishment, and his heart was full of shock.
The Tree of Life was said to be the origin of all living things. It had existed for so long that no one could verify it. The Tree of Life and the Elf Tribe had already existed before the human race.
"Eh?"
While Qin Yichen was still in shock, the Elven Queen also noticed his abnormality. She immediately asked in surprise, "You noticed?"
If Qin Yichen didn't use his Divine Eyes to investigate, he wouldn't have been able to discover anything strange. The Tree of Life didn't look any different. It was still full of vitality. However, under the gaze of the Divine Eyes, he could see through its essence and find something strange.
After seeing Qin Yichen nod his head slightly, the Elven Queen could not help but frown slightly.
In fact, there was a secret in the Tree of Life. This secret was not known even by the higher-ups of the Elf Tribe … The Tree of Life was withering!
No one knew when it started, but the Elven King at that time had discovered the abnormality in the Tree of Life. The entire Tree of Life was like a dam that had a hole broken, and the vitality of the Tree of Life was constantly draining away.
At that time, the entire Elf Tribe tried everything, but it was to no avail. In the end, the Elven King at that time performed a forbidden technique and sacrificed himself to the Tree of Life. Only then was the hole blocked.
However, even so, it only treated the symptoms and not the root cause. The Tree of Life was still withering. Although the speed was so slow that it was difficult to notice, it was just a drop in the ocean for the gigantic Tree of Life.
However, after countless years, the loss of the Tree of Life had caused some of its branches and leaves to wither.
At this rate, the Ancestral Tree of the Elves would most likely wither completely in another 100,000 years. By then, it would be an extremely serious problem if the Elves could still survive in this region that was being eyed covetously by countless foreign races.
This secret was only known to the Elf King and a few ancient existences. Now that an outsider had discovered her secret, the Elven Queen could not help but want to kill him to silence him.
This was because once this matter was spread out, it would bring great panic to the Elf Race. Those foreign races who were eyeing the Elf Race covetously would most likely join forces and divide the Elf Race in one fell swoop!
Therefore, the secret of the Tree of Life must not be known by others!
"The Tree of Life seems to be missing something."
At this moment, Qin Yichen did not seem to sense the Elven Queen's evil intentions. His eyes were tightly shut as his God's Eye scanned along the obscure ray of light as if he was searching for something.
The Elven Queen seemed to have noticed his strange actions. Although she wanted to suppress him in the Elf Race, she was not in a hurry to do so.
"There …"
Suddenly, Qin Yichen's heart trembled as if there was a strange fluctuation coming from somewhere. In the next moment, he opened his eyes abruptly and dug at the ground with his hands.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
With the strength of Qin Yichen's body, he could easily tear apart ordinary refined iron. Clumps of yellow dust were dug out by him as he waved his hands.
Usually, the Elves would have stopped him immediately if they saw his reckless actions. However, there was no one around except for the Elven Queen at this moment.
On the other hand, the Elven Queen did not have any intention of stopping him. However, there was a hint of emotion on her face.
After an unknown period of time, a bottomless pit that was about one meter deep and wide enough for a person to pass through was dug out under the Tree of Life.
Qin Yichen's figure had disappeared into it!
At this moment, Qin Yichen's eyes suddenly narrowed and he stopped what he was doing.
In the clump of yellow dust in front of him, he saw a dim ray of light. In the ray of light, there seemed to be countless black dots floating.
These black dots felt familiar to him. They were strange and evil and devoured all life!
Qin Yichen's expression was solemn. These black dots were so similar to the evil things that he saw in the inheritance of the Demon Vanquishing Great Sage. They even seemed to be of the same origin.
"The Tree of Life is also suppressing something … From the looks of it, something must have happened to the seal. That's why these evil things have started to corrode it!"
Qin Yichen's expression was extremely solemn. He did not dare to dig any deeper. If he accidentally touched the seal, with his current strength, not only would he not be able to help, he might even bring a great disaster to the Elf Tribe.
"Did you find something?"
After Qin Yichen came out, the Elven Queen waved her sleeve gently. As the dust flew, the land returned to its original state.
"The seal is broken."
Qin Yichen pondered for a moment before he replied.
"You're indeed the best of the Human Tribe."
The Elven Queen squinted her eyes and smiled. However, there was a cold glint in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, this must be the reason why you said so earlier."
Qin Yichen suddenly asked.
Hearing this, the Elven Queen was slightly taken aback. She understood that Qin Yichen was talking about the Grimoire of Life.
"I wonder if Your Majesty can bring me to the seal to take a look?"
Seeing the Elven Queen's attitude, Qin Yichen knew that he had guessed correctly. The Grimoire of Life must be comprehended in the Tree of Life. The Elven Queen's promise to go to the Elven Court was probably just a random choice.
He did not know how difficult it would be to comprehend the Grimoire of Life. However, no matter the result, he only wanted to give Little Ling 'er the best!
"Are you sure you want to take a look?"
Faced with Qin Yichen's solemn expression, the Elven Queen's lips curled into a faint smile as she asked.
"Please allow me, Your Majesty."
Qin Yichen cupped his hands and replied in a manner that was neither arrogant nor humble.
In his heart, he smiled bitterly. How could he not know that the more he knew, the more dangerous it would be for him?
If it were the Human Tribe, they would not let an outsider know such a secret and let him leave!
Now, it was obvious that the Elven Queen wanted to keep him here or even kill him to silence him. However, he had no other choice. He had already discovered this secret.
