Chapter 321: 321: Miasma Surrounded by countless elves vying for the treasures and blessings their group possessed, those who are targeted are full of contempt towards these greedy beings. These forest elves were arrogant by nature, adding to the fact that elementals support them. They had always believed that they were stronger than other races. Unfortunately, the ones in front of them were not ordinary individuals. Taiyang openly looked at the elves with disdain. He might be accepting when it comes to Old Leaf, whose nature was not greedy in a bad way, but towards these ones before them, he was annoyed. Especially when looking at those eyes as if they are at the top of the world. Taiyang said, "Annoying. Can I kill them all?" Yue Xuexia looked at Old Leaf, who shook his head, and the old elf said, "Please spare half of them." "Half it is, then," said Taiyang as he jumped toward the crowd of elves. Following him were the elder monkey, the fae, Xiao Meng (White Tarantula), and Tan Bingyu. They fought and killed the race of elves. The battle was like a few tigers in the midst of sheep. The elves were powerless against this group. Yue Xuexia, Shen Jueyang, and Old Leaf didn't even join the fun. In just an hour, as promised, only half of them were alive, and most of those who were killed were the ones leading the elven race. Seeing the territory of the elves now covered with their blood, Old Leaf sighed tiredly and felt sad. They are his brethren. However, as time passes, they become more unruly until they are beyond redemption. To get what they wanted, the Elves had killed a lot, including humans. Nature had given them up as well; except for old ones like himself, the other elves can barely live a hundred years. With half of the elves killed, the rest were beaten up and are now collectively groaning on the ground. Among the elves in the lead, only the village chief was spared after getting badly beaten up. Taiyang grabbed the village chief by the hair and asked, "Who told you to kill all races that entered your village?" "It's the Demonic Titanoboa," answered the former village chief, who had now become their enemy. "Most of the elves were affected by his aura and became insane." Seeing the terrified expression of the village chief, the Elven race's leader died at the hands of Yue Xuexia. He wanted to escape death by telling the truth. However, for Yue Xuexia and her group, only the facts are said to be real. Yue Xuexia can only watch as the beaten village chief changes into something else that can only be considered evil. The evil village chief becomes a mindless monster that attacks anything within the vicinity. The other remaining elves were shocked as someone then failed to escape its grasp and was eaten alive. GROWLS~ Tan Bingyu asked, "What the hell is he!?" "He had fallen," said the young Fae. Yue Xuexia asked, "What do you mean by fallen? What caused him to transform into something so grotesque?" "Miasma. A foul energy that only demonic beings possessed. They might be affected by the demonic Titanoboa during your last battle against it. It had been hiding its tail until we arrived. It planned to make the whole elven race a fallen one," said Shen Jueyang. As original residents of the immortal world, they had met countless demonic beings and had gotten used to their habits. Seeing the state of how the elves had ended up, he guessed that this was indeed the doing of a Demonic creature. In the whole Amazon Rainforest, only the Titanoboa was considered demonic and most likely the cause of beings becoming crazy and overly greedy. Old Leaf's face was full of hatred and rage. He didn't expect that the reason for his brethren's change in attitude was because they were affected by a demonic aura, miasma. He asked, "Was I also affected by the same thing?" "Yes. However, you have your own merits, which are greater than anyone in your race. These merits had prevented you from completely becoming like them. That case of you being greedy and forgetting a moment was for the same cause," said Shen Jueyang. Yue Xuexia asked, "Is there a way to remove the miasma on others?" "Only those who can use divine aura to cleanse other's souls can do such a thing. Xue'er, with your healing skills of purification, those at early stages can be said. But... you are not the Goddess of Light; you can't cure late-stage ones like this one," said Shen Jueyang as he pointed at the village chief. His golden flames burned the demonic elf into a pile of ashes. Shen Jueyang said, "Taiyang, burn the rest of the dead bodies as well. Deceased affected individuals will strengthen the miasma in their corpses after death. It's better to clean it up thoroughly." "What should we do about the rest of the elves?" Tan Bingyu asked. Shen Jueyang said, "They must be purified. Xue'er, I will leave that to you." "Alright," said Yue Xuexia. She summoned her moon domain. Deep in the night, the moon descended slowly towards her. She sat on the crescent moon and controlled the moon's light energy, which is also her source of divinity. Under this golden-silver light, those who were injured were healed. Those who were dying had survived, and those affected by miasma screamed in pain as their whole body was cleansed of filthy aura. Old Leaf didn't expect that the young human child whom he thought was naive was a new goddess. It's the goddess of that moon that controls the night. Her divinity was the purest and strongest at night. While Yue Xuexia was healing the injured, a robotic voice once again rang in her head. It's the system that had found the Elven village, another sign-in location in this rainforest. [Ding! A new sign-in location, 'Elven Village', has been found. Would the host like to sign in the Elven village?] 'Sign in in Elven Village!' She responded in her thoughts, which the system heard. Yue Xuexia had already expected this and accepted the sign-in rewards. [Ding! The host had successfully signed in the Elven Village, and the following rewards were received.] [Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving the Book of Summoning.] [Book of Summoning. It can summon a god, an elemental, a devil, anything. As long as compatibility was made, a summon will appear that is the most suitable for the host.] [The Book of Summoning requires a sacrifice for each summoning. In the book, each sacrifice can be called different entities. The host is free to try the possible result herself.] [The Book of Summoning can be lent. However, the borrower can only use it once, unlike the host, who is the owner of the book.] [Be warned. Only with a contract scroll can a borrower keep his or her connection to the summoned being.] Yue Xuexia was quite delighted by this item. It was like a fantasy item that could lead her to help in various situations. Though a sacrifice was needed, as long as it didn't involve human life, anything was possible for her. "This is... not bad," Yue Xuexia mumbles. [Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving a unique skill: Rune Creation.] [Rune Creation is a rare skill that involves ancient languages and signs. It can also allow one to create things like rune amulets, skill scrolls, contract scrolls, etc.] [Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving Godly Tier Skill: Elemental Awakening.] Yue Xuexia mumbles, "These are the exclusive skills of the Elves. If I paired this with Rune Creation, can I allow my family to summon an elemental to support them?" [Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving the Orb of Memories of an Ancient Elven King.] [Orb of Memories (Elven King) This is a recollection of the ancient elf king, which is composed of the elves' origin, their ancient skill, and knowledge of an ancient elf. This item can be given to an elf, and it would allow one to gain a portion of the Elven King's ability.] [Ding! The host had successfully signed in at the Elven Village. Please find more special locations to sign in.] As soon as Yue Xuexia heard the explanation of her system about the orb of memories, she sneaked a peek at Old Leaf. Among all the elves in this village, only this man had the ability to become a king or a ruler. Not a fake one like the current village chief, who had longed to become a fallen. After Yue Xuexia finished healing the remaining elves, as if their minds were cleansed, they all looked depressed with the memories of their bad actions when they were affected by miasma. Their hearts were so full of guilt that they couldn't even raise their heads. Upon seeing this, Old Leaf speaks up. He said, "Look up! It wasn't your fault that you were affected by miasma. Sins cannot be erased, but they can be repented." "The war against that demonic being will be done soon. That demonic snake that caused the death of our loved ones and the source of our race's suffering. We must take our revenge with our own hands. Are you willing to fight the Ancient Tree God and the Demonic Titanoboa with me?" said Old Leaf. The sane elves looked at one another and suddenly looked determined. They all agreed to fight against that being that toyed with them and killed their families as well as loved ones. As long as they can take their revenge, the guilt in their hearts will fade with time. "We will fight with you!" The elves collectively declared.
