Chapter 259: Creating A New Spring of Life

Antonio looked at Watson.

Watson’s gentle face lit up with delight at his progress to the diamond tier. That warmed Antonio’s heart, and he felt a sense of pride at the same time. His strength had been restricted for 400 years due to the Spring of Life’s curse. He had tried many methods during those years, but he only managed to develop the Time Stripping spell.

Watson had managed to do what he could not; the young man had broken the curse.

Antonio had spent his entire life serving people. He had lived with the late King Landhar I. Then, he had lived among thousands of people in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. His duty had always been to improve the lives of those in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. However, after meeting Watson, he felt as if he could finally let that weight go.

What initially impressed him about Watson was his ability to learn everything in a single sitting, and he could even fuse it to get stronger. Later, he realized that Watson could fuse spells and construct incredible buildings, magical beasts, and even weapons and armor.

There were hardly many platinum-tier items in the entire kingdom, but Blackmoon Town had made almost 100,000 of them. The Dragon Knight Army was the kingdom’s most formidable army, and Watson had not only created a massive dragon, but he had also started to create angels. That was already a feat that surpassed any other human. Antonio had never acknowledged it, but he thought that Watson’s influence had long exceeded the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s wealth.

He was not worried if he had Watson with him in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He could relax and go to the Forest of Eternity to see the woman he had not seen in 400 years.

However, he must first send Watson to the Royal Academy so that he could perform on a larger platform. The young man was still a little immature; he still needed training.

Antonio made up his mind after looking into Watson’s soft eyes. At that moment, Watson’s accomplishments surpassed his significantly. He had no idea what kind of incredible feat he would perform in the future. He could already picture Watson approaching the royal city and raising a ruckus throughout the kingdom.

While Antonio was moping, Sylvan, who was standing next to him, had completed his evolution. His eyes had turned scarlet, and six pitch-black bat-like wings extended from his back with black flares. Two long demonic horns protruded from his brow, and a ball of flames burned in the center.

As an elf, Sylvan’s body had a natural aura, but his aura had changed into something evil and terrifying.

He was the first to evolve into a demon since Watson created hundreds of Blessings of the Gods and Demons. He was also the first person on the entire border to have both elf and demon bloodlines. Sylvan was neither a pure elf nor a pure demon. Instead, he was a combination of the two—a fallen elf.

“I can feel that my strength is ten times stronger than before, and I’m only a little bit away from the diamond tier.”

Sylvan suppressed his excitement and restrained his body’s demonic characteristics. He nodded and thanked Watson. “You have fused an incredible potion. Do you have any more? Please give me another one; I’m willing to pay for it.”

He was ten times stronger after only one potion. If he took a few more, would he not reach the peak of his life?

“I’m sorry, Lord Sylvan. I only have one for each person. It’s useless even if you take more,” Watson said apologetically.

Watson did not wait to observe Sylvan’s regret; he said, “And since I’ve given you the Blessing of the Gods and Demons, I can’t get more water from the Spring of Life water, so I can’t use it as the raw material anymore.”

As he spoke, he twisted the Wish for the World ring on his finger and read the details of the ritual in his head. However, all he could hear was the failed wish warning. The lady named Vivian did not respond to him. It was pointless no matter how hard he tried.

He understood that he would not be able to get water from the Spring of Life indefinitely. He did not expect it would vanish so soon after only hundreds of individuals exalted to angels. He was unsure if it were because of Vivian’s frugality or the lack of water in the Spring of Life. He reasoned that he would have to wait until he promoted tens of thousands of people in town before he would turn it off.

“Watson, I believe you’ve already discovered that a mysterious energy protects the Spring of Life. You can’t get it by making a wish. You must first obtain permission from Spring of Life’s guardian! However, the Spring of Life water is not unlimited, and you’ve used up about half of it. Don’t worry. The water level will recover, and you’ll be able to continue with your process,” Antonio said as he descended from the skies.

Specks of light would drift from under his feet with each step he took; he looked extremely divine.

He had remained in the platinum tier for 400 years, and he had accumulated his progress for that long. That was why he was not only a simple diamond-tier elite when he broke through to that level.

Other than the Absolute Reflection that he had mastered after becoming an angel, the Absolute Explosion from his research over the past few days had also developed. It was called Time Suspension.

He could stop the entire Mount Creation for a few seconds if he wanted to, which was akin to suspending more than half of the time at the border. He could stop it for an entire day if the scope were reduced to a town like Monte Town.

The strength of a diamond-tier elite was judged by the number of rules he could master. At that moment, Antonio had learned three rules, each of which was extremely powerful.

Antonio, who had progressed to the diamond tier, drew the attention of everyone in the hall, including those in the sky who had already consumed the Blessings of the Gods and Demons and transformed into angels. They could not help but admire Antonio. Some of them even looked dissatisfied.

The majority of the folks were lining up to receive Watson’s Blessings of the Gods and Demons. They had not had the opportunity to utilize their Wish for the World ring to get water from the Spring of Life. When they heard Watson and Antonio’s comments, they realized that the water from the Spring of Life was temporarily gone; their wish to become an angel could no longer be fulfilled.

“Master, you said that it would take a while before we can get more water from the Spring of Life. How long do we need to wait?” Watson asked his master; he could sense the gloominess in the hall.

“The Spring of Life is the elven kingdom’s treasure. It would probably take a year to restore half of the water in the well.”

“A year? That’s too slow.”

Watson frowned when he heard Antonio’s words. He assumed that the Spring of Life had a lot of water and would be replenished once a month rather than every day. He had no idea that the Spring of Life was even more limited than he had imagined. Antonio’s estimation of one year must have referred to the time in the outer world, which would mean ten years on Mount Creation.

They could only create a few hundred angels or demons in ten years. They would have to pay a price of at least a thousand or ten thousand years if they wanted all Mount Creation’s occupants to live forever. However, everyone would have died by then.

“No, I can’t wait for that long. I only need some water from the Spring of Life to create the Blessings of the Gods and Demons; I have everything else! They say that the Spring of Life originated from the World Tree. If the elven kingdom can’t let go of their World tree, then I’ll just create one,” Watson muttered.

He raised his right hand and activated the fusion system toward Mount Creation. All eyes were on him, especially Antonio’s shocked stare.

Whoosh!

Countless trees ascended into the sky and fused together in mid-air in an instant. Watson’s previously fused platinum-tier Shadow of the World Tree, his diamond-tier staff, other platinum and diamond-tier objects, and other ordinary trees fused in mid-air to produce a massive green-colored light that blocked the sky.

Everyone in the hall was taken aback by what they saw. Antonio’s promotion to diamond-tier was already enough to shock them, but Watson’s actions were even more shocking.
