Upon hearing the request put forth by the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala,

Elf High Priest Shamiel and Elf Legion Commander Feiyana were first delighted, but then found themselves in a difficult position.

They were delighted because as long as they fulfilled the Fire Elves’ request,

they could win over this group of Fire Elves without bloodshed, greatly increasing their own strength and fulfilling the Oracle issued by the great Elf God!

However, Elf High Priest Shamiel and Elf Legion Commander Feiyana soon realized the problem.

Their Wood Elf Clan didn’t have any Elf Ancient Trees.

The Fire Elves definitely knew more about Elf Ancient Trees than they did.

But the Fire Elves had tried every method possible and still couldn’t revive this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree.

So what could the Wood Elves possibly do?

After a long period of thought, Elf High Priest Shamiel and Elf Legion Commander Feiyana

finally came up with a solution that wasn’t really a solution:

Praying to the great Elf God!

They would pray to the great Elf God, offer sacrifices, and hope that the great Elf God would bestow upon them a way to solve this problem—

to revive the Fire Elves’ ancient tree!

Upon thinking of this solution,

both Elf High Priest Shamiel and Elf Legion Commander Feiyana nodded in agreement.

After all, in their eyes, the great Elf God was an omnipotent being!

Besides, they had no other options at the moment.

Whether it worked or not, they had to try!

And so, Elf High Priest Shamiel proposed their solution to the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala.

When the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, heard this solution,

her first reaction was a face full of disbelief.

Although they had heard about the "great Elf God" from the Wood Elves during their very first meeting,

the Fire Elves did not worship some great Elf God.

They worshipped the Elf Ancient Tree.

Therefore, when the Wood Elves claimed at that first meeting that they were following an Oracle from the great Elf God to come and help them,

in the eyes of the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala,

it was nothing more than a nice-sounding slogan from the Wood Elves of another continent who wanted to conquer them and turn them into slaves.

’There’s no way a great Elf God actually exists in this world!’

But as things stood,

the Fire Elves had tried every method they could think of, yet none could save the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree.

It was a desperate measure,

but trying the Wood Elves’ method couldn’t hurt.

Although his consciousness was still in his Divine Realm,

it was a simple matter for Zhang Yi to possess any of the Wood Elves who had come to this continent.

Hearing the solution proposed by his Priest, Shamiel,

Zhang Yi didn’t feel offended at all. On the contrary, he thought his Priest, Shamiel, was quite clever.

’Once the Fire Elves agree to the Wood Elves’ proposal,’

’and they pray to the great Elf God,’

’if I then perform a miracle, I’ll definitely reap a huge amount of faith!’

At that time, the Wood Elves’ faith would be solidified,

the Fire Elves would be astonished and provide him with a new source of Faith Value,

and it would lay a good foundation for them to worship the great Elf God in the future!

After a few more instances like this,

this group of Fire Elves would switch from believing in the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree to believing in him, the great Elf God!

How could he refuse such a multi-beneficial opportunity?

As for whether Zhang Yi had the ability to revive this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree?

For Zhang Yi, that was not a problem at all.

Even if he couldn’t do it himself,

he still had so many different kinds of Divine Domain Cards.

As long as he had enough Faith Value, what kind of functional Divine Domain Card couldn’t he buy?

Therefore, reviving the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree and winning over this group of Fire Elves

was, in Zhang Yi’s eyes, already a done deal!

Not to mention, a while ago, Zhang Yi had just obtained two drops of Holy Blood.

The effect of Holy Blood was to grant new life to all things!

And the scope of "all things" also included dead trees!

So, Zhang Yi wasn’t worried at all about whether he could fulfill this request.

After the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, agreed to the Wood Elves’ idea and decided to see if the so-called "great Elf God" could help them solve this problem,

under the Wood Elves’ direction, the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, ordered her subordinates to bring out her treasured possessions.

A precious, fist-sized Fire Attribute Gemstone, enough to craft three top-tier Fire Attribute Magic Staffs.

The heartwood of the dead Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree, half the size of a Wood Elf’s body.

And four portions of previously stored Life Essence generated by the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree!

A full six priceless items were brought out by the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala.

Of course, the reason the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, took out so many precious items

was not that she wasn’t afraid of "feeding a meat bun to a dog—never to be seen again."

It was because the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, did not believe in the existence of an Elf God!

At the same time, she was also secretly telling this group of Wood Elves

that if the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree hadn’t died, they would never have had to ask the Wood Elves for help.

However, this deeper meaning was not noticed by Elf High Priest Shamiel or Elf Legion Commander Feiyana,

because the two of them were busy directing the Wood Elves and Fire Elves in setting up for the prayer ritual to the great Elf God.

Elf High Priest Shamiel had never left the Divine Realm to conduct a prayer before,

so she didn’t know that the great Elf God couldn’t actually leave the Divine Realm.

Fortunately, however, Saint Shamiel was present.

By using Saint Shamiel as a conduit, Zhang Yi could manifest himself before others!

「Over an hour later.」

The sacrificial altar was set up.

Elf High Priest Shamiel stood on the altar, praying for the great Elf God to appear.

Below the altar, the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, and the other Fire Elf Warriors stood to one side,

watching the "performance" on the altar with expressions of disbelief.

But also below the altar,

the Wood Elf Corps standing on the other side appeared extremely devout.

"O great Elf God!"

"Your children have encountered a problem, and we implore You—O great Elf God—to use Your unparalleled wisdom to help us resolve this issue!"

"We dare not ask for too much, we only hope that the great Elf God can help us solve this trouble.

For this, we are willing to offer everything we have, as well as our faith!"

With that, Elf High Priest Shamiel knelt upon the altar.

The Wood Elves beside her also knelt one after another, praying for the great Elf God to manifest a miracle!

Seeing Elf High Priest Shamiel kneel,

all the Fire Elves were supposed to kneel as well, according to their prior agreement.

But at this moment, the Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, did not follow the agreement and kneel.

This caused the Fire Elves behind her to hesitate and not kneel down with the Wood Elves.

The Fire Spirit Leader, Joy Pala, looked at the motionless altar, her inner convictions solidifying.

Just as she was about to mock this group of Wood Elves,

Suddenly!

An incomparably powerful aura abruptly materialized in the space above the altar!

The moment this aura appeared, the Fire Elves, who had been standing straight, could not withstand the pressure!

Within seconds,

this group of Fire Elves, who had been "standing out like cranes among chickens," were all forced to their knees by the pressure!
