Chapter 828: "Naming The Young World Tree"
Ainsley didn"t know about the two cats" conversation and was currently watching Eth planting the world tree to the prairie"s ground.
After the world tree left the golden pot, Eth didn"t throw the golden pot away but handed it to Ainsley.
"You can still use this when you want to move the world tree from this place, " Eth spoke in an elf language and Ainsley immediately understood.
She also replied in the same language.
"Okay, thank you, big brother Eth. I"ll make sure the world tree grows well!"
The world tree actually didn"t need intensive care. It only needed the right environment.
Coincidentally, the prairie was a good environment for a young world tree, and it could also sustain an adult world tree!
That"s why, the adult world tree with a consciousness would let sacred beasts guard them even when they didn"t need any guardians with the elves protecting the tree.
The world tree knew that these sacred beasts could make a prairie when they"re about to become a legendary beast.
When the sacred beasts did become one, the energy they emitted would nourish the world tree, sustaining it"s lifespan!
The world tree" inheritance method was also like the phoenix and dragons, but there could only be one world tree in the whole world.
When the tree was already at a fixed age, they would spread sprouts and many young world trees would grow up.
These world trees would either grow inside the elves continent or were sent to other continents.
In the process to become the new adult world tree with a consciousness, the young world trees would need a lot of nourishment.
The Elven continent was undoubtedly the best place for them to grow safely, but to awaken their consciousness, they had to interact with legendary beasts, a lot of them.
But how could they move away when they hadn"t awakened their consciousness?
They couldn"t communicate and couldn"t leave their fixed soil.
Thus, they could only wait for legendary beasts to visit their place, and maybe kindly give them some of their legendary energy…
But legendary beasts usually only visited the adult world tree, and the adult world tree wouldn"t ask the legendary beasts to a.s.sist their children.
For the world tree, this kind of interaction should be fate, and not deliberate arrangement.
When one young world tree successfully became an adult world tree and awakened their consciousness…
The other world tree would a.s.similate with the winner, becoming one.
Since then, there wouldn"t be a second adult world tree, the all-knowing, wise, and powerful world tree– the guardian of the elves.
When the elves knew about the world tree inheritance method knowledge…
The elves who were afraid of suddenly losing the world tree without seeing a new one immediately made a grand move–
They spread the young world tree all over the world.
There were only a hundred young world trees produced in the adult world tree"s entire life, and so, the place to plant the young world tree was extremely important.
For Jake to get one of the hundred young world trees showed the elves" trust in him, and in the end, the tree fell into Ainsley"s hands.
Eth looked at the young world tree that was so small it couldn"t compare with the gigantic adult world tree.
He couldn"t help but feel a bit emotional.
"Maybe ending up in this prairie is a kind of fate for the young world tree. Maybe this one will be the new adult world tree…"
If that"s so, Eth would be one of the luckiest elves ever to witness the future adult world tree"s juvenile form.
Eth took a deep breath and solemnly bowed to the tree not as tall as his knees before looking at Ainsley with a solemn face.
"I"ll leave the world tree to you. And if you want, you can also give it a name. It will help to awaken consciousness in the future."
Every adult world tree had a specific name beside their t.i.tle "Yggdrasil" or "World Tree".
Whoever named the world tree that successfully became an adult world tree would always become the elves" VVIP guests.
Even their descendants would get preferential treatment from the elves.
After all, the adult world tree always had a deep bond with the one who named them in the first place.
One of Jake"s predecessors was one of the lucky people, and that"s also why the Billios Family could befriend the elves.
There were actually more than one person in the Billios Family who named a young world tree which later on became the new adult world tree.
That"s how the Billios Family had a deeper bond with the elves compared to other families.
After all, there were many people in the Billios Family who named the adult world tree, and this made the elves wonder…
Maybe the Billios Family had a special innate ability...and it was in naming a world tree.
The chance of awakening a consciousness was much greater when the Billios Family"s descendant named the young world tree.
This was why the elves always sent one young world to the Billios Family, although the adult world tree usually only produced seeds once every a hundred year.
The average lifespan of a world tree was only two hundred years, while the elves could live past five hundred years.
But the world tree that receives nourishment from the opening of a new prairie would gain another one hundred years of lifespan, greatly extending their life.
Unfortunately, the number of sacred beasts that could "open" a prairie could be counted with fingers.
In a hundred year, maybe only one sacred beast could do that, or maybe there were.
This was why– the number of legendary beasts currently alive didn"t match the initial legendary beasts recorded in history.
