Chapter 784

At the time, Zhou Weiqing knew as well, that nothing could possibly happen to him. Saint Energy would automatically restore his body, and a Heavenly God-tier Elven Queen was guarding him by his side. How could there possibly be any problems with safety?

However, the scene before him shocked Zhou Weiqing to the core. Let's not mention the fact that the Elven Queen was lying on top of him, even the changes in his body completely stunned him.

While it was a big fight, his cultivation base couldn't possibly have received such a substantial increase! This could only prove one thing; with the Elven Queen's help, his body and cultivation base had received such amazing effects.

Zhou Weiqing wasn't too bothered about the advances to his cultivation base, thanks to his Saint Energy, he didn't really have many bottlenecks to speak of. He only needed to continue cultivating or to receive information from Galaxia to advance and eventually, he would be able to enter the Heavenly God Tier. However, the evolution of his body was different.

He knew his body better than anyone else, so Zhou Weiqing could naturally sense that his own Dragon-Tiger Bloodline had entered a whole new level. The Dragon Emperor Bloodline and Dark Demon God Tiger Bloodline did not just completely merge together, there was no longer any distinction between the two. Even the Essence of Demon God that he used to summon the Demon God had merged perfectly. This was no longer a simple Dragon-Tiger Transformation, but a Dragon-Tiger Demon God Transformation.

An evolution like this has allowed Zhou Weiqing's body to enter the Heavenly God Tier, and the level of his bloodlines had even outmatched those above the known Heavenly God Tier. One can only imagine his level of power. When you include his Upper-Level Heavenly Emperor Saint Energy, he would definitely have the ability to contend against any Heavenly God cultivator. Even though he had provided a great aid to the Elf Tribe — the Elven Princess should be safe by now. In comparison, it would seem that the benefits he received are far greater.

Even though Zhou Weiqing was rather confident in himself, he would not go so far as to assume that his current looks would make the Elven Queen burn with desire, then strike some sort of special relationship with him. This was completely impossible but what on earth did she do for him?

After mulling it over for a short while, Zhou Weiqing slowly calmed down. He then squatted in front of the Elven Queen, and with a slight movement in his Divine Thought, began to scan his physical situation.

The scanning process was unimportant, for Zhou Weiqing gasped. The Elven Queen was actually unconscious, and it was not because of her own weakness.

There were no wounds on her body, but her initially near inexhaustive and powerful Life Energy seemed so fragile that it was as if it could be cut off at any moment.

At that moment, Zhou Weiqing instantly understood. He had always been a smart person, so how could he lack the skills to make a conclusion in a situation like this? Without a doubt, the Elven Queen had used a special form of mysticism to help heal him from his wounds in the shortest time possible. Because of that, she ended up in such a fragile state.

It's no wonder that he had received such a great improvement, you could tell how high-handed this mystical technique was, to have reduced a Heavenly God-tier cultivator like the Elven Queen to such a weakened state. While Zhou Weiqing was still unaware of the significance of the Elven Heart to the Elf Tribe, he could guarantee that the Elven Queen has definitely used her most precious ability to save him.

Scratching his head in a puzzled manner, Zhou Weiqing could not help but feel embarrassed. He had only intended to fetch a good trade but ended overstepping the price, for the other party had given far more than what he had given. Under these circumstances, how could he possibly request for the Elven Blood! He did not notice the little bottle in the Elven Queen's hand. If it were not for the mouthful of blood that the Elven Queen had spat out from her mouth, she would not have become so weak.

Once Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy had recovered, with the help of her Life Saint Energy, the Saint Energy automatically began an ejection, forcing the Elven Queen out. This caused the Elven Queen to lose her endurance, coupled with the fact that she had already planned on giving Zhou Weiqing her own blood, her action in spitting out her precious Elven Queen blood resulted in a state of fragility that she had never experienced before.

"No, I cannot go back like this." He thought. If he returned with the weak-looking Elven Queen, and without any knowledge of where she had hidden the Elven Princess, the Elf Tribe would definitely be out for his blood. If they did not, it would be very strange indeed.

Alright then, you gave some to me, now I'm going to give you a little as well. Zhou Weiqing smiled bitterly, albeit exasperatedly. Of course, at this time, his heart held no wicked intentions. He really wanted to take his clothes off again, take advantage of the Elven Queen's previous state, and squash her beneath him. Obviously, these were only thoughts. Who would dare admit to actually carrying a few wicked intentions deep down in his heart?

Sitting cross-legged, Zhou Weiqing gently clapped his hands up towards the sky. Two rays of light twinkled at the same time, the purplish-red light turned into the Demonic Dragon Lady, and the black light turned into Hell's Angel. These two have long been abilities that Zhou Weiqing had used most frequently. Zhou Weiqing was more afraid of being disturbed, as he would need time to heal the Elven Queen. Hence, he needed guardians. Based on his current cultivation base, summoning the Demonic Dragon Lady and Hell's Angel was definitely more powerful than using his own living cultivation base.

Pure golden light gathered in front of Zhou Weiqing's chest, slowly lighting up. It was the light from the Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core, except, while the light was still a pure golden shade, the core position of the Saint Nucleus Core had already presented itself as a purer shade of white-gold.

The deliberately crucial difference between then and now seemed to only come the moment the Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core released its power. The skies darkened instantly, and little bits of starlight appeared, and thick Genesis Energy filled the sky. The Atmospheric Energy, which was initially in the air, seemed to have been absorbed by the Genesis Energy instantly. In the midst of the bits of starlight, Zhou Weiqing's body followed suit and became transparent. His entire being seemed to emit an extra amount of divinity.

More accurately speaking, his summoning of Nebula Saint has not reached the level of Divine Territory, because he still hasn't achieved total control over the process. Even so, this piece of Nebula Saint was a great deal more powerful than most Divine Territories. This was definitely more superior than those in the levels above it. How many would have the ability to be on the same level as Genesis Energy?

The Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core in Zhou Weiqing's chest suddenly felt a little kinder. Then, a ray of light shot through the skies, it was the Heavenly Core Nucleus from the man in black whom Zhou Weiqing had killed.

A cultivator on the Upper Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier, who also had a Saint Nucleus Core with Saint Attribute at the Upper-Level of the Heavenly Emperor Tier. How could Zhou Weiqing bear to waste it?

Even though he was already severely weakened at the time, but he still preserved the Heavenly Core Nucleus at the first opportunity, storing it in his own Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core, ready and waiting to be used for absorption through Galaxia feedback, once his cultivation base was restored. However, now, he clearly had no intentions of absorbing it for himself.

The splendid starlights seemed to send back information in the next moment. This time, Zhou Weiqing did not immerse himself in it. Instead, he extended his right arm, and the starlight solidified into a bundle. Then, under his guidance, slowly illuminated around the Elven Queen's chestal area. At the same time, Zhou Weiqing's other hand gently pressed against the air, and gentle Nebula Saint Energy formed into a half-foot long spiral, then whirled around above the Elven Queen's chest, slowly absorbing the Galaxia feedback that fell from the skies, and then converting into the most gentle and purest Saint Energy, pouring into the Elven Queen's body.

The Elven Queen herself may not have Saint Energy, but her body was pure, a definite rare sight in Zhou Weiqing's lifetime. Drinking in Nature's energy from a young age, growing up in the Goddess of Nature's baptism, the Elven Queen had a very pure body. It's a good thing that Zhou Weiqing didn't do anything immoral to her, otherwise, if her purity were to be damaged in her weakened state, the Elven Queen might have perished.

Gentle Saint Energy mixed with creation aura slowly entered into the Elven Queen's body, filling her weak life energy.

The creation of life includes Creation Energy. The Elven Queen was able to use the Elven Heart to mobilize Life Genesis Energy and was stronger than most humans in the receptivity of Saint Energy. Besides, under Zhou Weiqing's deliberate control, the Saint Energy automatically converted into great life force upon entering the Elven Queen's body, to make up for the severe wear and tear in her body.

The energy brought from Galaxia feedback from an Upper-Level Heavenly Emperor-tier cultivator is rather powerful, but to a Heavenly God Tier cultivator like the Elven Queen, this was obviously not enough. Soon, the energy from the Galaxia feedback was completely depleted, but this showed no effect to the treatment that Zhou Weiqing had given her.

The pure gold starlight with a faint white-gold nucleus was spat out from the Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core in Zhou Weiqing's chest, making up for the position initially held by the Galaxia feedback. He was now pouring the purest of his Saint Energy into the Elven Queen.

You could say that Zhou Weiqing held nothing back in healing the Elven Queen. Saint Energy brings great benefits to all living things, even though Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy was still not at the level of Genesis Energy, it was pretty close. The attributes of Saint Energy was all-inclusive. Hence, it brings great benefits to people of all attributes. Even if you were not a Heaven Jewel Master and only an average person, it could still provide you with longevity.

To cultivators, it had a more significant purpose. Furthermore, the higher your cultivation base, the greater the benefits received. Simply put, if a Maximum-Level Heavenly Emperor-tier cultivator were to receive Saint Energy from Zhou Weiqing, it would be highly possible for him to shoot up towards the Heavenly God Tier. For example, the current Six Ultimate Heavenly Emperor, the old man was now in closed-door cultivation in the Heavenly Bow Empire. With the help of his precious disciple, his bottleneck which has been around for more than ten years showed signs of loosening up.

Cultivators at the Heavenly God Tier could not only gain comprehension of the heavens and earth but could also hold the world in their grasp. They would truly be considered to be masters in their own Divine Territory.

The benefits that a Heavenly God-tier cultivator would have after receiving Saint Energy could not be easily described in a concrete manner as the benefits would be all rounded. Aside from the comprehension of the heavens and earth, it would bring an even deeper, profoundly meaningful and incomparable benefit to Heavenly God-tier cultivators.

Chapter 785

You could definitely describe the Elven Queen's current situation with the phrase 'profiting from a disaster'. Due to her kindness and heart of gold, she paid the greatest price and put herself in an extremely weakened state. Because of this, her body is now left with more space to absorb Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy.

Like a blood transplant, the Elven Queen's initially large reservoir of Life Energy was now converted into pure Nebula Saint Energy, thanks to Zhou Weiqing. In the middle of the Elven Queen's chest, lay something similar to a Heavenly Core Nucleus — the Life Core. This was also the symbol of the Elven Queens from the past dynasties.

The Life Core will not only bring her even greater power, for should the Elf Tribe be in grave danger, the Elf Queen would be able to use her life as a form of sacrifice and use the Life Core as a seed while she provided nutrients to nurture the Ancient Tree of Life once again. This would prolong the Elf Tribe's survival.

Hence, the position of the Elven Queen who held the Elven Heart and the Life Core is one of absolute supremacy. Even with the twelve elders combined, they could not be compared to her.

At this moment, the outer area of the Elf Queen's Life Core was completely wrapped in a layer of pure Saint Energy. As Saint Energy continued pouring in, the Life Core continued to secrete powerful Life Energy. Not only was this replenishing the Elf Queen's lost Life Energy within a short period of time, it was also following the Saint Energy as it orbited back and forth from Zhou Weiqing.

The Life Core continuously released layer after layer of green light. At the same time, the green surface of the Life Core slowly began to peel, as if layers of silk were beginning to peel off, and started a transformation towards a shade of gold.

Just like how the Elven Queen, while in combat, was absolutely sure that the Elven Heart could help heal Zhou Weiqing, but was not aware that it would create such a huge effect, Zhou Weiqing also knew that his full usage in pouring Saint Energy into the Elven Queen's body to help her recuperate, would help her replenish the life energy that she had lost. However, he was not too clear on the benefits that she would receive from this.

With Saint Energy's stimulation, the Elven Queen's Life Core began to transform. Furthermore, it seemed to evolve as well. To a Heavenly God-tier cultivator like her, this was definitely considered to be a fundamental change.

However, even though the Elven Queen was probably feeling really good, things for Zhou Weiqing were beginning to take a more gloomy turn. The Elven Queen's body was like a bottomless pit. Based on the purity of his Saint Energy, he assumed that even without the help of the Galaxia feedback, his own Saint Energy should be able to help replenish the Elven Queen's life energy in a short period of time.

However, when he was actually doing it, he did not feel like it was a short period of time at all. After absorbing the Galaxia feedback and a large portion of Zhou Weiqing's converted Saint Energy, the Elven Queen's body still seemed like a bottomless pit. No matter how much energy Zhou Weiqing poured into her, she would receive it with great ease.

This cannot go on! Is the Heavenly Energy of a Heavenly God Tier that horrifying? If she continues her absorption, I'm going to die from excessive ejaculation!

Zhou Weiqing thought sorrowfully while increasing his absorption of the Atmospheric Energy.

With the help of the Nebula from the sky, he managed to replenish his Saint Energy at a rather rapid speed, especially after the completion of his Dragon-Tiger Demon God Transformation. The most shocking thing to Zhou Weiqing was, that he was not only able to absorb Atmospheric Energy from the air, he was also able to absorb and convert the energy from beneath the ground. This also included Atmospheric Energy, Evil Energy, and other similar types of energies. In the face of his Nebula Saint Energy, everything could be turned into nutrients. It was because of this support system that he was able to continue pouring into the Elven Queen. Besides, the fact that he had the power to continue pouring in even more energy was what gave him even more resolve. If he found himself unable to continue, he could stop. It did not mean that he would be sucked dry.

Zhou Weiqing would not stop so easily, not before he was finished. This was especially since he had received so many benefits from the other party. Only heaven knew what kind of transformation would happen to the Elven Queen. Logically speaking, the Life Energy in her body should have gone back to normal long ago, so why did she not shown any signs of awakening?

Zhou Weiqing had a hunch that the Elven Queen had entered a cocooned stage. Not only was she unable to wake up, she had entered the deepest slumber. Was this due to overconsumption? Zhou Weiqing could not say for sure. However, for the sake of the Elven Queen's safety, he could only continue pouring his Saint Energy into the Elven Queen.

Time continued to pass, and the extreme darkness in this part of the skies would naturally draw the attention of people passing by. However, it was also fortunate that this was a desolate area outside of the city, not many people could really see the changes in the sky. Even if there were cultivators among that small amount of people, once they entered the area around Zhou Weiqing's Nebula Divine Territory, their substantially limited powers would make them choose to flee the area immediately.

Anyone who had experienced the Nebula Divine Territory would be able to discern that this was the Divine Territory of a Heavenly God-tier cultivator. Who would dare offend the whiskers of a Heavenly God cultivator! Unless of course, that person is courting death?

However, the earliest to realize the problem at hand was the Elf Tribe.

That day, Zhou Weiqing took the Elven Queen and traveled through her realm. It's been three days and three nights since he had left. Initially, the Elf Tribe didn't react too much to it. They fully trusted their Elven Queen and waited quietly.

However, not too long after Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen's departure, a large number of leaves on the Elf Tribe's Ancient Elven Tree began to fall, all of a sudden.

One should know that the Ancient Elven Tree was the Elven Queen's residence, and also the core of the Elf Tribe. You might say that it was closely linked to the Elven Queen. Whenever something happened to her, the Ancient Elven Tree would react as well. A huge change in the Ancient Elven Tree shows, very clearly, that the Elven Queen was in trouble.

After careful consideration, the twelve Elf Tribe elders managed to surmise, that the Elven Queen had used the Elven Heart.

How could this be? Just how powerful was the enemy, to have forced the Elven Queen into doing this! The members of the Elf Tribe instantly plunged into panic. However, they could not leave the Sealed Land of the Elf Tribe so easily. The seal on the Sealed Land was not only directed to the world outside, more importantly, it was directed to the world inside. Even the Elf Tribe elders could not not leave at will without the help of special magical tools.

The first thought that came to the Elf Tribe elders' minds was that something had happened on Zhou Weiqing's end. They have all seen Zhou Weiqing's power, and have had personal experiences with the terrifying might of the Demon God Sword. In their eyes, Zhou Weiqing was at least on par with the Elven Queen, so he must have done something terrible to her, which resulted in Her Majesty's usage of the Elven Heart.

The Elf Tribe did not have a lot of good sentiments towards humans, so naturally, they were used to thinking ill of them. In their point of view, it was very likely that Zhou Weiqing was in league with the enemy. Therefore, the Elf Tribe viewed Zhou Weiqing's five female companions with extreme hostility. If it were not for the fact that Shangguan Xue'er had stepped out to reveal her identity from Heaven's Expanse Palace, the Elf Tribe might have moved against her already.

After waiting for yet another day and still seeing no sign of the Elven Queen's return, the Elf Tribe had no choice but to send two elders to forcibly break out of the seal, in hopes of finding the Elven Queen and bringing her back.

Now, these two elders were already in the outer area of Zhou Weiqing's Nebula Divine Territory, but did not dare step in. Not only have they seen the Nebula Divine Territory, they also saw the powerful Demonic Dragon Lady and Hell's Angel. Without a doubt, Her Majesty should be inside this Divine Territory, and the power in this Divine Territory had completely surpassed their previous assumptions.

What could they do? They could only choose to return to the Elf Tribe.

"What did you say? A Divine Territory that turns day into night, and a large helix-shaped Nebula? Where did this cultivator come from?"

The twelve elders assembled, all of them filled with anxiety. The Elven Princess was kidnapped, and now something had happened to the Elven Queen. This, to the Elf Tribe, was definitely a disastrous predicament! If something happened to both the Elven Queen and the Elven Princess, then the survival of the Elf Tribe would be greatly affected as well.

"Go ask those humans. Perhaps they would know." The First Elf Tribe Elder suddenly remembered Shangguan Xue'er, Tian'er and the rest of the five wives.

Therefore, the twelve Elf Tribe elders appeared in front of the five wives once again.

Even though the Elf Tribe did not make any direct move against them, after receiving knowledge of Shangguan Xue'er's identity, they still placed them under house arrest. While their powers were not exactly weak, they could not leave without Zhou Weiqing's lead from this Sealed Land, even if the Elf Tribe did not do anything to them. Hence, they had no choice but to stay in the Elf Tribe for the time being.

"What? Nebula Divine Territory?" The five wives looked at each other after hearing the Elf Tribe elders' description.

"Do you know whom the Nebula Divine Territory belongs to?" The Elf Tribe's First Elder questioned impatiently. The hostility in his eyes increased. To them, if Zhou Weiqing and his companions' had not disturbed the peace in the Elf Tribe, none of this would have happened.

Shangguan Xue'er nodded, "I think I know. Perhaps that is not a Divine Territory, but that's definitely Weiqing's ability. I can guarantee you all, that if the Elven Queen is with Weiqing, her safety would not be a problem."

"That's Zhou Weiqing's ability?" Hearing this, a dull look momentarily flashed across the twelve Elf Tribe elders' faces. Then, an even more powerful sense of hostility exploded from their being.

The Elf Tribe's First Elder replied in a dark voice, "Regardless, we want to see Her Majesty. No matter where you're from, it's come to a point where we have no choice but to commit an offense. Take them away first, then find that Zhou Weiqing."

The twelve Elven Tribe Elders surrounded the five wives instantly. Among the five wives, Shangguan Xue'er was the calmest, the most gentle was Shangguan Bing'er. However, if you wanted to point out the one with the worst temper, it would naturally be Tian'er and Fei'er. Especially Shangguan Fei'er who has never been placed under house arrest throughout her entire childhood into her adulthood. Back in the Heavenly Bow Empire, her position was equivalent to the prime minister. Only Zhou Weiqing would dare say he was above her rank. Even a great number of soldiers had to respectfully address her as chief instructor whenever they met her.

Chapter 786

Shangguan Bing'er was already furious from being locked in for an entire day by the Elf Tribe. How could she not feel enraged now that the Elf Tribe elders wanted to take action against them? With a flash, Shangguan Bing'er made the first move to step forward. The legendary armor set swiftly covered her entire body. It might not have been the full set but the Saint Nucleus Core that Shangguan Fei'er solidified was rather special, unlike the others. Her Saint Nucleus Core did not amplify the Elemental Jewel Attributes but amplified the Physical Jewel instead. Hence, her level of resilience could be considered as second only to Zhou Weiqing. In fact, she was second only to Zhou Weiqing at the Heavenly Emperor Tier. A powerful force erupted, ready for attack.

Shangguan Xue'er spoke in a low voice, "Fei'er, wait a moment. Elf Tribe elders, will you please listen to what I have to say?"

The First Elf Tribe elder replied, "Her Majesty is extremely vital to our Elf Tribe. My apologies, everyone. Perhaps you truly don't harbor any animosity. However, in order to ensure the survival of our tribe, please excuse our crimes."

Shangguan Xue'er's expression sank. A shapeless aura erupted from her body, "First Elder, do you understand the implications of your actions? If anything happens to us here, I can confirm that the Elf Tribe will cease to exist."

Her words were no simple threats. Whether it was Zhou Weiqing's newly constructed Peerless Sect, Heaven's Expanse Palace or Heavenly Snow Mountain, they were all the best of the best in the human world. If all them attacked the Elf Tribe at the same time, the Elf Tribe would most likely face imminent destruction.

The First Elder's expression grew complicated. After engaging with them for over a day, he already knew that these women were not to be trifled with. Others may not be able to comment but they had reached a formidable cultivation base at such a young age. Not many humans could achieve such a thing. One could imagine the great powers that supported them. Naturally, he did not know that the reason why the five women were able to achieve such a level in their cultivation base was because of Zhou Weiqing alone.

However, the Elven Queen was more important. Furthermore, he did not have any intention of harming the women. After a brief hint of hesitation in his eyes, he immediately hardened his resolve again. Only if they captured these women would they have a better chance of threatening Zhou Weiqing. Finding the Elven Queen was currently the most important thing.

Shangguan Xue'er took one look at the change on the First Elder of the Elf Tribe's face and knew something was wrong. "Protect Tian'er," she said darkly. Just as she spoke, she took the lead and stepped forward. She pushed Tian'er behind her. Among the five wives, the pregnant Tian'er was undoubtedly the one who needed the protection the most.

Tian'er had never mentioned this before. In reality, among the five wives, she had the strongest cultivation base. She only wanted to see what Shangguan Xue'er would choose to do in a situation like this.

Among the five wives, Tian'er and Shangguan Xue'er were the most powerful. Shangguan Xue'er was the heir to the Heaven's Expanse Palace and the eldest among the three Shangguan sisters. The three of them were sisters! Therefore, Tian'er had been working hard to establish a good relationship with them. Considering Tian'er herself received Saint Energy at the same time as Zhou Weiqing, she was crucial in helping Zhou Weiqing's cultivation base. Naturally, the other three wives would not fight with her over the position of the first wife.

At this moment, when Shangguan Xue'er moved in a horizontal direction to defend Tian'er, Tian'er's heart finally officially recognized her as a sister. Regardless of the situation, at the most crucial moment, they were a family. That's right. Because of Zhou Weiqing, the five of them had become a family!

Tian'er slowly closed her eyes. One by one, she silently placed the God Vanquishing Heavenly Spirit Set on her body as the powerful Divine Energy fluctuated continuously from her being. The purity of Saint Energy seemed to surround all five of them at once.

The color of her Saint Energy was not the same as Zhou Weiqing's. Instead, a sparkling and translucent shade of gold with flecks of starlight surrounded the five women. From a distance, a large shadow of an angel appeared in the sky.

The faces of all twelve Elf Tribe elders fell. They could all clearly sense what the large angel shadow brought. It was not as simple as the Purgatory Angel that Zhou Weiqing summoned. It was a divine angel. Additionally, this divine angel had six wings on its back.

A Seraphic Blazeangel! It had an existence that was comparable to the Demon God! Perhaps it was slightly inferior to the Demon God. However, it certainly could not be compared to gods like the Goddess of Nature. Zhou Weiqing alone was able to summon the Demon God. The last time it took all of the Elven Queen's might to resist his attacks. This time, among the five women, one of them was able to summon a divine angel. What kind of powers did they possess?

The divine Seraphic Blazeangel descended from the sky. It suppressed the twelve Heavenly Emperor-tier Elders with such might that they were unable to mobilize the Atmospheric Energy. Even the Natural Elements in the air were constantly fueling this divine angel.

Tian'er stood in the middle of the four wives. At this moment, she suddenly felt a bout of weakness. However, what shocked her the most was a jet of Saint Energy slowly entered her body around her lower abdomen and it caused the feeling of weakness to slowly fade away.

Based on Tian'er's current cultivation base, it was similar to the time when Zhou Weiqing previously summoned the Demon God. The deterrent force was greater than the fighting strength. The divine Seraphic Blazeangel was enough to deter and intimidate a Heavenly God-tier cultivator but she had no control over it. At most, she could try very hard to defend them.

The twelve Elf Tribe elders began to feel awkward as they prepared to make their move. How could they simply act under these circumstances? They could not make sense of the situation at all! They had already seen the Demon God Sword once and this time, they did not have the Elven Queen to lead them.

Just then, an Elf Tribe cultivator flew in at top speed. It was a Heavenly King Elf Tribe member. Shock was all over his face. However, he did not seem to notice the enormous divine Seraphic Blazeangel. Even before his physical body could be seen, they already heard his voice.

"Elders, you must come and have a look. The Ancient Tree of Life. Something seems to have happened to the Ancient Tree of Life."

The twelve Elf Tribe elders naturally recognized him. This was a tribe member who was responsible for guarding the ancient elven tree. When they heard that, the color immediately drained from the twelve elders' faces. They could no longer bother about dealing with the five wives. The twelve elders immediately retreated, and they all left in the same direction.

Shangguan Xue'er and the rest heaved a sigh of relief as well. Tian'er, who was in the middle, exclaimed, "Let's have a look as well." Then, without withdrawing the Seraphic Blazeangel, all five were swept up in a flash of golden light and followed the Elf Tribe elders.

The Ancient Tree of Life was, without a doubt, of extreme importance to the Elf Tribe. Even the Sealed Land's source of energy came from the Ancient Tree of Life.

More importantly, the Ancient Tree of Life was crucial in producing Elf Tribe offsprings. Every member of the Elf Tribe was born from the Ancient Tree of Life. In the first few moments of their birth, they were bodies of energy. They would grow into elves over the passage of time. If anything happened to the Ancient Tree of Life, the Elf Tribe would face extinction. They would need to sacrifice the Elven Queen in order to restore the Ancient Tree of Life. Furthermore, the Elven Queen had been absent for more than a day now.

The twelve Elf Tribe elders rushed to the Ancient Tree of Life immediately. However, when they laid their eyes upon the Ancient Tree of Life, they could not help but slip into a daze. Their anxiety was completely obliterated.

The Ancient Tree of Life was a large ancient tree that was about a hundred meters in height and around two hundred meters in diameter. Its trunk was tough and solid, and its countless branches were widely stretched. Every piece of leaf was ornately carved in a light shade of jade-green, and it brimmed with endless life force.

This was also the Elven Queen's residence. The breath of life emitted by every inch of the Ancient Tree of Life granted life and ensured the continued survival of the Sealed Land of the Elf Tribe.

However, at this moment, a completely confusing transformation was happening to the Ancient Tree of Life. Every branch of the large ancient tree began to move. It was not because it was wilting, but because it was producing propitious vapor.

A faint gold propitious vapor wafted through the large tree branches as it enveloped every inch of the large ancient tree. Every time a branch moved, it made the breath of life from the tree grow even stronger.

Besides, one could see the link between the Ancient Tree of Life and the earth very clearly. The soil surrounding it was torn open, and the Ancient Tree of Life was growing upwards continuously. Furthermore, every branch seemed to grow at the same time as they danced. The breath of life that had grown to a terrifyingly large degree gave every elf around the ancient elven tree a brand new feeling. Their cultivation base seemed to gradually grow without having to cultivate at all.

"This, this is?" After the twelve Elf Tribe elders recovered from their momentary daze, their eyes displayed an expression of complete disbelief. Perhaps the average little Elf would not be able to understand what was going on. However, how could they, who had been around for more than a thousand years, not see what was going on?

The transformation in the ancient elven tree that was happening before their very eyes could only mean one thing — evolution.

"The Ancient Tree of Life is evolving?" The First Elder of the Elf Tribe gulped. After his astonishment, joy took over. It was a mad kind of joy. He even leaped and hugged another Elf Tribe elder next to him. Overjoyed, he cried out, "The Ancient Tree of Life is evolving. It's really evolving. This is too great. Too great! It's evolving. Can you all see it? It's evolving."

Upon receiving confirmation from the First Elder of the Elf Tribe, every member of the Elf Tribe cheered. Yes, they had witnessed the unbelievable. To the Elf Tribe, this also meant that there would be unbelievable benefits that came with the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution.

The evolution of the Ancient Tree of Life meant that it would be much easier for the Elf Tribe to survive and pass on their traditions to the future generations. This also meant that the Elf Tribe would grow even stronger.

Chapter 787

In the Elf Tribe's history, the Ancient Tree of Life would usually evolve one time. The only Ancient Tree of Life that had gone through two evolutions had only appeared twice in the ancient times. These two times when the Ancient Tree of Life went through two evolutions made the Elf Tribe the ruler of the entire mainland. One could imagine how great the benefit of the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution was to the Elf Tribe.

The Ancient Tree of Life before them was one that was in the process of evolving for the second time. The humans were now in power. Even if the Ancient Tree of Life managed to complete its evolution, it was impossible for the Elf Tribe to defeat the humans and dominate the mainland once again. However, with the second evolution of the Ancient Tree of Life, at least they did not have to hide in this Sealed Land and could walk out of here with dignity. They would not have to fear the dwindling population in the tribe anymore.

This was historically meaningful to the Elf Tribe! Even an old fellow who had lived for more than 1,000 years old would cheer for this.

"Seems like there's no need for us to be worried about our safety anymore." Shangguan Xue'er who was with the Seraphic Blazeangel mumbled. She was the most knowledgeable when it came to the Elf Tribe's legacy. She was surprised to witness the second evolution of the elves' Ancient Tree of Life. Apart from being surprised, she was even more impressed. There was no doubt the Elf Tribe had no need to hide anymore, and they would definitely walk out of this land after the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution.

The five women appeared on the ground as the glow faded. Shangguan Xue'er walked to the Elf Tribe Elders after nodding to the four women. She said to the First Elder of the Elf Tribe, "I think it has been proven that we've no evil intentions. The second evolution means that Your Majesty, The Queen, is also evolving. Instead of saying the Elven Queen is in danger, it's safe to say that the Elven Queen's current condition is better than when she left. Am I right?"

The First Elder of the Elf Tribe had gotten his emotion under control. He nodded as he listened to what Shangguan Xue'er was saying. "Yes, yes. Since the Ancient Tree of Life has evolved, the Queen isn't in any danger. I would like to apologize for my reckless behavior earlier. Please stay for now. Perhaps all of you will be the Elf Tribe's guests of honor when the Queen returns."

It seemed like the First Elder had figured out that the evolution of the Ancient Tree of Life was related to Zhou Weiqing. Otherwise, why would it evolve when Zhou Weiqing had only gone out for a day while the queen had been at the Heavenly God Tier for hundreds of years yet nothing had happened? However, no matter what and no matter how, it was an immeasurably fortunate incident for the Elf Tribe! There was nothing for them to worry about.

Even if the Elven Queen really died, as soon as the second evolution was complete, the Ancient Tree of Life would automatically elect a new Elven Queen. The Elf Tribe's Ancient Tree of Life's evolution continued as the process would not be completed overnight. The Elf Tribe's elders had no idea how long it would take for the process to be completed. The only thing that they could do was wait, and they waited in excitement and joy.

Meanwhile, Zhou Weiqing stood guard on the other side of the Elven Queen in silence. Time continued passing by. Although Zhou Weiqing had been releasing his Saint Energy with the help of the Nebula Divine Territory, it was getting more and more difficult for him. Fortunately, there were changes in the Elven Queen after he inserted a certain amount of Saint Energy. There was a mysterious wave of energy that her body quietly emitted. She was absorbing the external Life Energy without being affected by Zhou Weiqing's Nebula Divine Territory. Ever since then, her desire for Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy had lowered considerably, and it allowed Zhou Weiqing to continue holding on.

In the beginning, Zhou Weiqing's intention was purely to rescue the Elven Queen. Later, he thought he might as well cultivate. Ever since he had broken through to the Heavenly King Tier, Zhou Weiqing's cultivation base had improved by leaps and bounds like it was sitting in a rocket. Within a couple of months, he had arrived at the Upper Level of Heavenly Emperor Tier. Although he had completed another round of evolution on his body, and the upgrade was not disadvantageous to his body, he would only be able to utilize the power when he had completely integrated the powerful abilities. Zhou Weiqing still had many things that he had to do so he took the advantage to cultivate.

The continuous release and absorption of Saint Energy allowed Zhou Weiqing to feel the changes in Saint Energy and the help that the Nebula Divine Territory provided to him. It gave him great benefits in terms upgrading his cultivation base and gave him a greater understanding of nature as well.

It was under such circumstances that Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen managed to form a kind of circulation cycle between the both of them. He had begun cultivating and did not notice that the Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core that was on his chest was now connected to the Life Core that was on the Elven Queen's chest. As time went by and the cycle became more frequent, the emerald-like energy glow that was connected to each other had materialized without them knowing.

The Life Energy that the Elven Queen had been releasing was cleansing Zhou Weiqing's body, and it removed the remaining impurities in his body. It could be said that the purity of Zhou Weiqing's body was inching closer toward that of the Elven Queen. With that, it could be considered that what he had sacrificed was given back to him.

As a faint glow sparkled, Zhou Weiqing revealed a joyous smile on his face. He had no idea how long had passed but he could clearly sense the Elven Queen's heartbeat was getting stronger. He could even feel that the Elven Queen was regaining her consciousness. Zhou Weiqing had no idea how he could feel it so clearly. He felt that his heartbeat was in-sync with the rhythm of the Elven Queen's heartbeat.

As Zhou Weiqing opened his eyes slowly, the Saint Energy stopped releasing on its own accord. At the same time, the Elven Queen opened her eyes slowly in confusion. The both of them woke up at the same time, and they looked into each other's eyes. The Elven Queen was stunned when she looked at Zhou Weiqing and felt the tremendous change in her body. Zhou Weiqing could also feel the intense emotional change that she was experiencing.

There were feelings of confusion and shyness but the feelings of joy and excitement were more prominent in her emotions. He even sensed Life Core Evolution in the Elven Queen's consciousness.

'What's happening? How do I know what she's thinking about?' Zhou Weiqing looked at the Elven Queen in shock. A hint of happiness slowly appeared in the Elven Queen's eyes as she looked at him.

She was stunned like Zhou Weiqing. However, the way the Elven Queen looked at him was odd because she could also hear Zhou Weiqing's thoughts. The only thought that Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen had at the moment was, 'This is impossible.'

However, the truth was right before their eyes. It only took Zhou Weiqing a short while to snap out of his shock. He thought that this should not have happened, and he wanted to kiss the Elven Queen just to experiment.

Suddenly, the Elven Queen blushed as she looked up at Zhou Weiqing. She did not have any intention to reject him so she slowly stood up and walked towards him. Zhou Weiqing could clearly feel the shyness and her desire and passion towards him.

'She's not rejecting me, why?' He thought to himself.

In the next second, the Elven Queen appeared before him. She lifted her head and extended her fair hands. She then wrapped her arms around Zhou Weiqing's neck. With her cold, moist and delicate lips that were filled with Life Energy, she kissed Zhou Weiqing's lips.

Bam —

The same sense of shock appeared in their heads at the same time. At that moment, they felt an intense jolt in their hearts and a feeling like they were both merged into a single entity. It made them feel like they had the ability to control each other.

The kiss was long. From the outside, one could see clearly that a rich golden glow had enveloped the both of them. A materialized glow came out of the Starcrux Saint Nucleus Core and the Life Core on their chests, and it connected the both of them together. Without knowing how long had passed, Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen opened their eyes at the same time in confusion. They looked into each others' eyes as they let go of their lips. They had a hint of surprise, joy and mostly disbelief in their eyes.

"Why is this happening?" They said at the same time.

"You go first." They said at the same time again.

"I don't know." They were still talking at the same time. They were stunned that they said the same thing at the same time three times consecutively. They were speechless as they hugged each other. Both Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen could not imagine that such a thing was happening to them as they looked at each other. Zhou Weiqing swore that even though he was always promiscuous and sleazy, he had never had any dirty thoughts towards the Elven Queen that was currently in his arms!

Ever since he had sex with Dongfang Hanyue on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland, he had decided to behave himself so that he would not disappoint his wives. Most importantly, he was afraid that he would lose them due to his womanizing behavior. However, what was happening now was beyond his understanding.

A while later, the Elven Queen snapped out of it. Just like how there were no dirty thoughts in Zhou Weiqing's head, there were none in hers as well. She had no idea what a relationship between a man and woman was because her heart was pure without any impurities. She only felt shyness as she looked at Zhou Weiqing who was standing before her.

She mumbled as she thought to herself shyly, "Could, could this be a spiritual connection, Life Sharing?"

Zhou Weiqing could not help but ask, "What's a spiritual connection, Life Sharing?"

Chapter 788

The Elven Queen frowned and said, "It's just like the connection I have with the Ancient Tree of Life. With this connection, we can say that there's a magical resonance in the Life Energy between us. In a certain way, we're like a single entity. It allows us to feel the spiritual waves between us within a certain distance."

Zhou Weiqing was relieved to hear that the connection was only within a certain distance. It was fine as long as they could not sense each other at any time or anywhere. Otherwise, that would be rather awkward. The Elven Queen then proceeded to say, "Our lives are merged into one across time, space, and any form. That being said, unless both of us die at the same time or the shared Life Energy between us is drained, neither one of us will die."

Because they were connected by spirit, Zhou Weiqing knew very well that the Elven Queen was not kidding. His mouth was wide open in surprise as he looked at her exquisite and flawless face. Was it a good or bad thing to be sharing lives, and to be spiritually connected to the Elven Queen? On the surface, it was clearly a great thing. The Elf Tribe originally possessed strong and powerful Life Energy. The abundant Life Energy was a basic guarantee of their survival. Sharing lives with the Elven Queen who was a Heavenly God-tier powerhouse would mean that it would be difficult for Zhou Weiqing to die even if he wanted to.

From another perspective, this relationship was akin to something that tied Zhou Weiqing with the Elf Tribe. With that, he would be duty bound and should a crisis befall the Elf Tribe, he would have to do everything in his power to rescue them with no question asked. Otherwise, if the Elven Queen's Life Energy was drained from the enemy's attack, Zhou Weiqing's Life Energy would be drained as well. Although the possibility of something like this happening was unlikely, it would be almost fatal if it did happen.

Since Zhou Weiqing was thinking that, the Elven Queen naturally had the same thoughts as well. Her expression became extremely complicated as she looked at Zhou Weiqing. She had never thought that she would have such a complicated relationship with a human in her life. A while later, Zhou Weiqing finally recovered from the shock and mumbled as he looked at the Elven Queen, "Could it be possible that this happened because you were absorbing my Saint Energy while I was absorbing your Life Energy during the energy exchange?"

The Elven Queen looked at Zhou Weiqing and frowned, "It seems like you're averse to this?"

"Ah… No, it's not that." Zhou Weiqing explained immediately, "Its just too shocking. Your Majesty, what ability did you use to rescue me? How did you weaken yourself so much? To be honest, there shouldn't be any problem with my recovery with my Saint Energy."

The Elven Queen's expression dimmed when she heard him say that. She let go of Zhou Weiqing's hands that were hugging her and pushed him away gently. "I'm sorry, I really didn't know that you did that to save my child. I'm really sorry. I didn't intend to hurt you."

Although the matter had passed, and the both of them were safe, the Elven Queen was filled with guilt. Zhou Weiqing was almost killed by her slap that carried her full force behind it due to her rage. In the end, he only did that to save her daughter. Nobody would be able to accept such a mistake without feeling any guilt.

Zhou Weiqing smiled in a carefree manner and said, "I figured you'd definitely attack me out of anger when I released Saint Energy into your daughter's body. I was 80% confident that your attack would at the most injure me badly and it won't be fatal. My skin's so thick."

The Elven Queen was stunned because she could feel what Zhou Weiqing was feeling. She realized immediately that he really did not mind. Such open-mindedness impressed her, and she said softly, "Since you figured that I might attack you, why didn't you hint me before you made a move?"

Zhou Weiqing said helplessly, "I can't do that! At that moment, that person was extremely panicked. Moreover, he's a Heavenly Emperor-tier powerhouse. He would've noticed the slightest changes in our expressions. Your beloved daughter that was in his hands was too weak. I couldn't take the risk so I had to personally take the hit. If I could deceive you, I could definitely deceive that person. However, you should really thank me for your child. The Saint Energy that I inserted into her body is even purer than the one that I used to rescue you. It took almost all of my Saint Energy otherwise I wouldn't be hurt so bad if I had the Saint Energy to protect myself."

"Thank you." The Elven Queen said softly. She was not sure of the reason but she did not dare to look Zhou Weiqing in the eyes.

Fortunately, Little Fatty Zhou was much more proper than he used to be. He did not take the advantage to flirt with the Elven Queen, and he comforted her instead, "It's over now. You don't have to take this personally. I guess it's fate that we have such a connection. I can feel that your body has changed in certain ways and it's just beginning to break through the surface. Try to feel the changes now. The effect will be the best if you're able to feel it right now. Let's head back to your Elf Tribe after this. I've no idea how long the cultivation this time took. Your people must be worried."

Zhou Weiqing was worried when he thought about his wives who were still in the Elf Tribe's Sealed Land. It must have been some time since the both of them cultivated here, he was not sure if the Elf Tribe people caused any harm to his lovers. The Elven Queen sensed Zhou Weiqing's concern immediately and shook her head lightly at him, "Don't worry, that won't happen. My evolution this time is unprecedented. Actually, you're not the only one that I'm spiritually connected and share lives with."

"Hmm?" Zhou Weiqing could sense the Elven Queen's thoughts, and he looked at her in shock. "The Ancient Tree of Life? The Ancient Tree of Life is also sharing lives with you?"

The Elven Queen nodded. She looked at Zhou Weiqing as a look of intense gratitude appeared in her eyes. "With your help, both I and the ancient tree of the Elves evolved at the same time. My Natural Energy and the original Life Energy have evolved into Life Saint Energy. That's the energy of the Elven Heart that I used to heal you earlier. All of the former Elven Queens in the Elf Tribe could only release Life Saint Energy using the Life Heart. However, now that my Life Core has evolved into the Saint Life Core, the Ancient Tree of Life has evolved following my evolution. The benefits from the evolution of the Ancient Tree of Life are indescribable to the Elf Tribe. Within a short period of time, our people will have improvements in their abilities from the Ancient Tree of Life. It's you who gave us all this. Thank you, Weiqing. I would like to thank you on behalf of the Elf Tribe."

The Elven Queen performed a kneeling ceremony that the Elf Tribe would only perform to the most honorable guest as she spoke. She closed the distance between them slightly and used the tip of her ear to touch Zhou Weiqing's face. Even though it was just a touch, the Elven Queen's ears turned red in an instant. The pointy ears were extra cute like that. Zhou Weiqing had no idea that the most sensitive part for the Elves were their ears. The act of using their ears to touch another person signified that they were willing to give their lives to that person. Safe to say, it was the most honorable ceremony, disregarding the fact that it was the ruler of the Elf Tribe who performed such a ceremony for him.

Zhou Weiqing gave her a gentle hug. As the Elven Queen looked up, she placed her right hand before Zhou Weiqing and opened her hand. There was a tiny bottle containing her blood within her palm.

"This was what you wanted. Take it." The Elven Queen passed the tiny green bottle to Zhou Weiqing. The bottle contained much more than just three drops of the Elven Queen's blood. Zhou Weiqing did not show any modesty in front of the Elven Queen and put it away in his Sumeru Ring.

The Elven Queen sat down legs crossed. Just like what Zhou Weiqing had said, she needed to adapt to the changes in her body, and it was best for her to do it right now. As the Elven Queen was adapting to the changes of the Life Energy in her body, Zhou Weiqing was doing the same. After the cultivation, his body that had just evolved and his cultivation base were perfectly integrated. The sky was spinning with nebula. Zhou Weiqing no longer felt small under the nebula like he used to. On the contrary, he felt like the heavens, the earth, and the dazzling starry sky were all within his control.

As he waved both of his hands lightly, two glows that were not far away faded. With Zhou Weiqing's protection, the Demonic Dragon Lady and the Hell's Angel were no longer needed. He had also dismissed his Nebula Divine Territory at the same time. Just a mere Divine Thought allowed him to monitor everything that was within 100 kilometers. The Spatial Travel earlier had brought Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen hundreds of kilometers away from the Elf Tribe's Sealed Land. His current cultivation base did not allow him to sense so far away.

The Elven Queen's cultivation did not take too long. She opened her eyes slowly four hours later. As she opened her eyes, she was surprised by her cultivation and state of mind.

"Weiqing." She looked up at Zhou Weiqing.

Zhou Weiqing chuckled and said, "If you're going to thank me, you don't have to. I know exactly what you're feeling right now. Let's head back now."

"Alright." The Elven Queen stood up slowly. She had a tremendously magical feeling in her heart at that moment. Although she was spiritually connected and shared her life with the Ancient Tree of Life, it was not human after all even though it had its wisdom! It was not a living man like Zhou Weiqing. It was a magical feeling having her spirit connected to a man. It was a feeling that she could not describe. All she felt was that it seemed like there was no more loneliness in her life. Instead, it was replaced with a unique satisfaction.

Chapter 789

Compared to the strange feeling that the Elven Queen was having, Zhou Weiqing was feeling very baffled. Because of the spiritual connection between them, he did not dare to have any filthy, lusty thoughts at all. For someone as wretched as him, it was undoubtedly a painful torment.

Naturally, in addition to this torture, he also felt a bit of triumph in his heart. After all, the Elven Queen was sharing a life with him for goodness sake! The alliance between them now could be described to be rock solid. No matter how close the Heaven's Expanse Palace was with the Elf Tribe, it looked like his own Peerless Sect was about to replace the Heaven's Expanse Palace and become good friend with the Elf Tribe, forming a relationship that more tightly knitted.

Two figures rose to the sky. The next moment, Zhou Weiqing took the queen's hand and as a silver light flashed, the two of them faded into the sky.

Now that they had this spiritual connection between them, he could clearly pinpoint the location of the Elf Tribe's Sealed Land with the help of the Elven Queen. After all, what was faster than Spatial Travel? Even though he would have to consume a higher amount of Saint Energy, he did not really mind much as he was too anxious to see all his loved ones. Not only that, now that his cultivation base had once again elevated, he really did not care about the amount of energy consumed at all.

This time, the Spatial Travel that he used was completely different from the one that he unleashed when they were chasing the enemy previously. Zhou Weiqing could clearly feel the tremendous reduction in his Saint Energy consumption now. More amazingly, maybe due to the fact that he was holding the Elven Queen's hand and how they had a spiritual connection now, the Elven Queen was actually sharing the Saint Energy consumption load with him. In other words, they could now go to a much farther distance with their Spatial Travel, something that not even a Heavenly God-tier powerhouse could do.

Right now, the Elven Queen's heart seemed to have calmed down a little. In their peculiar Spatial Travel, she never once had her heart changed at all. Zhou Weiqing also tried to restrain his thought as best as he could. Not daring to have any dirty thoughts, the Elven Queen was merely a friend in his mind.

A silver light flickered and when the two reappeared again, they had already returned to the Elf Tribe's Sealed Land. With the Elven Queen by his side and his own Saint Energy in his body, the sealing effect of the Sealed Land did not impact him at all.

The moment they stepped foot again in the Sealed Land, Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen could clearly feel the changes to this place. Originally, the Sealed Land was already full of vigor but at this moment, they were astonished to find that the vitality here was so dense to the point that it was almost visible to the naked eye. Just taking several deep breaths was already more than enough to make one's vitality palpitate with eagerness. The natural elements here were so rich that it even automatically elicited a faint green light from the Elven Queen. Due to the fact that Zhou Weiqing was now sharing a life with her, he could clearly feel the vitality that was increasing at a breakneck speed in her body. The speed was so terribly fast that it could only be described as horrifying. Even his own vitality was elevated along with it.

What a wonderful feeling this was! Now that they were already the ultimate powerhouses in this world now, an increase in their vitality might not be too much help towards their cultivation bases. However, it still brought along with it amazing benefits to their physical strength. On top of that, the Elven Queen could now absorb the natural elements here directly. Zhou Weiqing was absolutely certain that the Elven Queen was now the most invincible individual on the entire mainland. Unless he could increase his own cultivation base to the Heavenly God Tier and use his Saint Energy to mobilize the natural elements here, there was no way for him to even compete with her at all.

Levitating in mid-air, the Elven Queen fixed her gaze in a single direction. She appeared to be utterly stunned as her delicate body started to tremble ever so slightly.

When they had returned to the Elf Tribe, Zhou Weiqing originally wanted to let go of her hand to prevent the other Elves from misunderstanding. To his surprise, the Elven Queen actually held on to his hand tighter, refusing to even let go.

Her little hands were a little cold. Still, he could clearly feel the excitement in her heart from the spiritual connection between them.

After being stunned for about five minutes, the Elven Queen slowly regained her senses. Her heart started to flutter at once.

"Well, there's really no need to," Sensing the thoughts in her, Zhou Weiqing could not help but say.

The Elven Queen turned around to look at him. Both her eyes and thoughts were clear and firm as she made her decision. Not long later, her body gave off a layer of green light that was crystal clear. The light was filled with radiance, made of vitality and endless breaths of life as well as a

Not long after that, a layer of rich green light that was as clear as crystal was exuded from her body. Glorious light shot out to the surroundings from the layers of light; it was full of endless life and a verdant allure. As the green light rose to the skies, Zhou Weiqing could clearly feel the light trembling throughout the Elf Tribe's Sealed Land. Another azure green light could be seen soaring up to the sky as well in the distance.

This time, it was the Elven Queen's turn to lead Zhou Weiqing. Under the rich pulsating light of the Life Energy, she took a step out into the void. At once, everything turned into a blur and he was able to feel the intensity of the fluctuations in the surrounding life energy through his senses. Immediately, the enormous amount of Life Energy transformed into a bridge and transported them to another place.

At the next moment, Zhou Weiqing's gaze was immediately attracted by the amazing before him.

It was a huge tree that he had never seen before. Even the size of the giant trees in the Luster Spatial Realm paled in comparison. This tree before him was at least 300 feet high and had an azure green trunk as if it was carved out of emerald. Still, how could there possibly be such a huge piece of emerald in this world?

The huge tree canopy spread through the air like a huge platform. At first glance, one could clearly see the clear green fog that was gleaming with steam on top. That was the essence of the Life Energy. One could not help but wonder how much vitality it had to have in order to cope with such a monstrous amount of Life Energy!

The size of the canopy itself was so massive that it was almost the same size as the Zhongtian Public Square in the Heaven's Expanse Palace's. Every leaf and branch appeared to be so crystal-clear and transparent and the branches hung low all over the place like a waterfall. The rich breath of life made the entire place look as if one was in a dream. Such a wonderful scene was undoubtedly something that Zhou Weiqing would never come across again.

The Elven Queen who was holding Zhou Weiqing's hand at the moment suddenly turned completely transparent. The azure green radiating from her body also gradually transformed to a peculiar golden color. Though it was still a golden light, it was not the energy ripple that she once exuded. Instead, it was a vigorous vitality that was even more massive than what the gigantic tree before them had.

Facing the gigantic tree in front of her, tears streamed down the Elven Queen's face as she muttered, "I-It's evolved! Finally! It's really evolved now! It's been so long that we Elves have lived in this Sealed Land, trembling in fear every single day for fear that this Ancient Tree of Life would wilt and die at any time. Weiqing, do you know that the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution means that we Elves have regained the possibility of dominating the mainland once again? With the enormous vitality of the Ancient Tree of Life, it'll be able to envelop at least a third of the Boundless Mainland once we've broken the seal. By that time, the Elven warriors would be almost invincible in that world. The Ancient Tree of Life's evolution would also increase our life extension threefold. It would only take a hundred years at most for us to regain the power to strive for hegemony and unify the entire mainland."

Zhou Weiqing did not say anything but he knew that what the Elven Queen said was possible. The vitality coming from the Ancient Tree of Life in front of him now was absolutely horrifying; so terrible that it could no longer be judged or measured at all. It was not an exaggeration when she said that its breath of life could cover a third of the mainland. Heck, that remark was an understatement in itself.

If the vitality of the Elven Ancient Tree of Life covered the entire mainland, this would mean that the Elven Warriors would come to possess extremely powerful combat abilities under its cover, making it very hard to kill them. Coupled with the fact that the Elven Queen would be almost invincible under the envelopment of the Ancient Tree of Life's vitality, it was not impossible for them to end up ruling the entire mainland. She had even given a duration of a hundred years for them to accumulate enough vitality to take over the mainland.

Zhou Weiqing could feel chills running down his spine. If all of this was to become a reality, the Elves would most likely cause massive bloodshed in the near future. After all, it was all due to the rise of mankind that had caused them to imprison themselves in the Sealed Land in the first place. There was no doubt that the Elves had a bad impression toward the human race. On top of that, he was the also initiator of the events that had yet to come. Had he not infused his Saint Energy into the Elven Queen to rescue her in the first place, this Ancient Tree of Life would most probably be unable to complete its evolution.

The Elven Queen turned her head and looked at Zhou Weiqing. At that moment, he was astonished to find that he could not read her emotions at all.

Gently shaking her head, a warm smile appeared on her delicate face, "Do you know that after the Ancient Tree of Life has evolved, it has now become sentient. In certain ways, it's actually my body and I'm its heart. Because of this, it no longer needs to root itself in a solitary place any longer. It now can move as freely as it likes."

The moment he heard what she said, Zhou Weiqing could no longer keep his cool. With eyes full of bewilderment, he looked at her as he shouted out loud, "Your Majesty! You must think twice!"

Being able to move anywhere meant that the Ancient Tree of Life's tremendous vitality could shroud any corner of the mainland at its whim! The Elves already commanded horrifying strength and within a few years, a large number of Elven powerhouses would be produced. By that time, the Elves would potentially become a terrible nightmare for the humans.

At once, as if acting as a backdrop for the words uttered by the Elven Queen, a huge number of Elves flew towards them from every directions and innumerable places. A group of Elves had also gathered not far behind Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Queen. Yet, seeing the rich golden light emanating from her body, they did not dare to come nearer for fear of disrupting them. They only kneeled and bowed close to the ground respectfully from afar.

Chapter 790

Seeing the bewildered look on Zhou Weiqing's face and the deep worries in his eyes, a warm smile appeared on the Elven Queen's delicate face, "Don't worry, I'm just stating the possibilities. In reality, we Elves will never do that. I'll even control the Ancient Tree of Life's release of the vitality so as to prevent my people from becoming too powerful. Being too powerful would only bring on a bigger ambition and that is very likely to bring about a devastating disaster to our tribe."

"Why?" Puzzled, Zhou Weiqing asked.

"It's because of you." The Elven Queen replied without hesitation. "If you've never existed and the Ancient Tree of Life had still evolved, I'd probably do as I've said. I believe that I would stand a great chance of succeeding as well. However, it's exactly because of you that I will not do just that. Be it the debt of gratitude that we owe to you, I'd only bring calamity to my own tribe if I were to do as such."

"We Elves have lived here for too long now and have long accustomed to the peace and comfort here. We don't like killing and we're even less willing to be involved in any disputes. Even if the Elven Ancient Tree has already evolved, things will still remain the same. On top of that, though we used to hate human beings a lot, but isn't this evolution of the Ancient Tree brought upon by humankind? How can we possibly repay your kindness with revenge? You're a great benefactor of the Elf Tribe – no matter where and when. Besides, I can see your future and I saw that it was you who would be standing on the top of this world. Don't forget that the Life Saint Energy that I possess now and the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution were all made possible by you alone. For this reason, there is nothing that you need to be worried about at all. In fact, it is us Elves that need to be worried instead. The creation of life is just a small part of creating the world. Though this part is very important, it's still unable to be compared to the true Creation Energy. Do you understand?"

As soon as she arrived, the Queen's heart that was seemingly closed had opened up again, allowing Zhou Weiqing to feel the changes of emotions in her heart.

Looking at the Elven Queen, Zhou Weiqing let out a smile as well, "At first, I thought you rarely come into contact with the outside world and that your thoughts would be as simple as you are. Despite my initial impression toward you – which still remains the same – I find you to be very smart. I believe that the choices you make will be the most ideal of all. I too, despise war just as much. As long as you do not initiate a war against us, we, the Peerless Sect, are willing to be the allies of the Elves. Isn't your Ancient Tree of Life able to move now? If you're willing, you can migrate to our Heavenly Bow Empire. Now that it has evolved, I believe that be it you or I, we've no idea how long our lifespan will be. Let us guard the peace that we love together, shall we?"

The Elven Queen narrowed her eyes at him, "Somehow, I feel that your intention is not as simple as it appears to be."

Zhou Weiqing chuckled, "Humans are all very selfish. The reason I infused my Saint Energy to you is because you sacrificed your precious Elven Heart to save me, to the point that you've become weak as a result. Just count this as my debt you, but I did not owe anything to your Ancient Tree of Life. It has drained a lot from my body and had even almost squeezed me entirely dry. Having it migrated over would be a great repayment for me."

After a moment of silence, the Elven Queen nodded slightly, "Alright, I promise you."

Still staring at her, a surprised look could be seen on Zhou Weiqing's face. In truth, he was simply joking and did not really mean what he said. He did not expect the Elven Queen to agree to it at all. Yet, it had never crossed his mind that not only had she agreed to it, she even did it very quickly. It looked as if she did not even have the intention to discuss this matter with the tribe Elders first.

Listening to the thoughts in his mind, the Elven Queen let out a faint smile, "What's there to discuss anymore? Now that the Ancient Tree of Life has evolved, nobody in the tribe would dare to go against my wishes. Not only that, I also believe that once it has migrated to your country, there would be only benefits and no disadvantages for us Elves. I'm a very far-sighted person – do I make myself clear?"

Looking at the cheeky smile on the Queen's face, a warm feeling resonated around Zhou Weiqing's heart. Evil thoughts almost formed in his mind. Fortunately, he responded in a timely manner and quickly suppressed before it even came to fruition. However, his heart began to burn now. What would it mean if the Elf's Sealed Land had migrated to the Heavenly Bow Empire?

Putting the Elf's strength aside, just the slight leaking of the Ancient Tree of Life's immense vitality would be more than enough for the people of the Heavenly Bow Empire to be well-fed and live in peace.

"Migrating the Ancient Tree of Life is not difficult. What's difficult is migrating the entire Sealed Land that it's enrooted in. We'd need a little more time to be able to do that. It's not possible for us to do it right away," the Elven Queen explained to Zhou Weiqing.

He replied, "It's alright, there's no need to rush. There's plenty of time anyway; I can certainly wait."

"Weiqing!" Right at this moment, a few delighted cries sounded in the air. Zhou Weiqing turned around and at once, he saw the three Shangguan sisters, Tian'er and Little Witch rushing over toward him.

The Elves did not dare to come closer but these girls did not care at all. Even the Elven Elders would not stop them as well. Although the Elven Queen had not told them about the things that they had gone through during this trip yet, the mere fact that she was still holding on to Zhou Weiqing's hand had already spoken for itself.

Shangguan Xue'er and the other four girls were still very excited when they came to Zhou Weiqing, but the moment they saw him and the Elven Queen holding hands, everyone could not help but widen their eyes in surprise. All five pairs of eyes landed on the joint hands, as they stared at them intensely.

Under normal circumstances, any girl would not hesitate to give her partner a tight slap on the face or show any other strong negative emotions like anger or jealousy, if she were to see her husband holding another girl's hand. However, when the girls – who were led by Shangguan Xue'er and Tian'er – spotted it, the first emotion that they felt was actually admiration.

That's right – admiration!

Right now, all five girls had more or less the same thoughts. Coupled with Zhou Weiqing's remarkable past achievements, they could not help but wonder to themselves – what was there that Little Fatty could not do? Even the Elven Queen had caved in, in just a month! Indeed, it had already been one month since the two of them left to give chase to the enemy.

Zhou Weiqing had an awkward expression on his face now. After all, he did not know what they were thinking at the moment. But, he was really innocent! This time, having another affair did not cross his mind at all. Yet, the Elven Queen still clung to his hand tightly and there was nothing he could do, as he could not possibly pull his hand away abruptly.

The Elven Queen smiled and nodded to the five girls before she said, "Don't think too much. There's no underlying meaning to this. Please hold on for a while longer."

While she spoke, she flew up to the sky still clutching Zhou Weiqing. Prior to this, it had been him, who brought her back using Spatial Travel, so he did not notice the changes on the Elven Queen at all. Now that she brought him flying, he was astonished to find that the Elven Queen's body seemed to be slightly taller than before, by at least half a head. What was even more amazing was the fact that the two invisible wings behind her turned into three pairs instead. With a faint golden light, she now looked extremely elegant and noble, with a supreme majestic aura around her. Of course, this aura was being exuded outwards toward other people and Zhou Weiqing could only feel a faint hint of it. Right now, he could clearly feel her gentleness towards him.

Before this, most of the Elves only saw the Elven Queen and Zhou Weiqing returning to the land; they did not see that they were both actually holding each other's hands. At this moment, when the Elven Queen clung onto Zhou Weiqing's hand in mid-air, each and every one of the Elf Tribe members could not help but be dumbfounded with astonishment.

In reality, the Elven Queen was the supreme being of the Elf Tribe. At the same time, she was also the purest representative of the tribe. Never mind touching a male human being, even a male Elf had absolutely no right to touch her body at all. Yet, right now, seeing her holding Zhou Weiqing's hand was absolutely something they could not fathom.

The twelve Elven Elders who were standing at the front did not have to kneel down in respect. Exchanging glances with each other, they were stunned to the point that they could not even utter a single word. It was apparent to them that the Elven Queen was holding Zhou Weiqing's hand at her own will. What was more important was that this Ancient Tree of Life's evolution had brought them an abundance of happiness over the past month. Otherwise, the Elders might have long gone berserk upon seeing such a scene.

As the Elven Queen had explained, the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution meant that her position in the Elf Tribe had elevated and became more well-respected. Therefore, nobody dared to go against the Elven Queen's prestige. All they did was to wait patiently for her orders.

With her right hand holding onto Zhou Weiqing's hand, the Elven Queen lifted her left hand gradually. At once, the rich golden Life Energy around her body started to fluctuate without warning. As her left hand flicked outwards, a layer of faint golden light exuded and turned into a faint gold halo as it slowly spread out to its surroundings.

At this point, at least several thousands of Elves had already gathered here. Under the expansion of the golden halo, the Elves were slowly shrouded by it. The moment the breath of life – which was brimming with creativity – touched the Elves, each of them could clearly feel their already abundant vitality continuing to elevate and improve.

"Long live Your Majesty!" A cheering sound erupted like a tidal wave. Even the twelve Elven Elders automatically kneeled down when they felt the rich spread of Life Saint Energy. As for the Elders, they had the most profound understanding of the type of energy that the Elven Queen was releasing now. This was the Life Saint Energy that one could only possess if you release the Elven Heart! Yet, right now, it was actually being released with ease by the Elven Queen.

Chapter 791

The Ancient Tree of Life's evolution had an unusual significance towards the Elves. Heck, it could even drive the Elven Queen to experience a quantum leap in her power and strength. At this moment, these Elders had no idea how powerful the Elven Queen was now.

"Rise, my people," the Elven Queen's soft voice resonated through the air, allowing every Elf to hear her very clearly. Her soft, pleasant voice elicited a willing submissiveness from all the Elves.

No Elves dared to disobey her command; all of them rose at once.

The Elven Queen looked at her people with gentleness in her eyes, the way a mother would look at her children. The golden light on her body slowly became more intense and even Zhou Weiqing who was standing by her side was also brimming with this rich golden layer.

"My people, I believe you've all witnessed this miracle with your own eyes. Yes, that's right! Our Elven Ancient Tree of Life had finally evolved again after thousands of years. This was definitely a God-like spectacle for us Elves.

With that simple sentence alone, the Elven Queen instantly evoked the emotions of all the other Elves. In an instance, strong cheers burst out amongst the people. Strong excitement could be seen in their eyes as all of them had their gazes fixed on her. Zhou Weiqing could even feel the strong faith displayed by the Elven people. It was apparent that all of them were concentrating on the Elven Queen now.

The Elven Queen looked at her excited people with a smile on her face. After a long while, she slowly lifted her left hand as she gestured to stop. No matter how many Elves were present, all the voices immediately died down upon her mere gesture.

"I think all of us must be very curious about what had happened when I was gone and the reasons behind the Ancient Tree of Life's evolution. I'll tell you now but before that, let me introduce someone to you. The human being that is standing beside me right now; he is Zhou Weiqing, the greatest Heavenly Jewel Master amongst the humans of the future."

While she was uttering these words, the Elven Queen turned her attention towards Zhou Weiqing and the excited look in the Elves' eyes immediately turned to a look of shock. At once, all their gazes landed on him.

Zhou Weiqing bowed his head slightly to acknowledge the Elves. As he shared a spiritual connection with the Elven Queen, he was very clear about what she was going to do next. So as all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart; he then continued to follow her lead.

The Elven Queen continued, "I'm sure everybody must be wondering why I am holding on to a male human's hand now. It's all thanks to him that our Ancient Tree of Life could finally evolve. It was also he, who helped rescue my daughter as well. He's a great benefactor of us Elves and he'll forever be the most precious ally of our tribe!"

Having heard the Elven Queen's words, the expressions on all of the Elves changed at once. The look that they gave him had also changed as well.

Was it really this human being who helped the Ancient Tree of Life evolve? Disbelief initially filled their minds, but immediately, their reasoning reminded them that the Elven Queen would never play a fool.

The Elven Queen added, "Though it may be hard for all of you to believe what I've just said, I have to tell you that this is indeed a fact. That fateful day, it was Zhou Weiqing who chased the enemy who kidnapped my daughter and defeated him. When the enemy took the princess hostage, he did not mind being misunderstood by me and still gave his best to protect our little princess. Yet, due to my misunderstanding, I've seriously injured him and though we had succeeded in killing the enemy – he was already dying at that point."

The moment they heard her words, a look of guilt could be seen on the twelve Elder's faces. These Elves were actually kind in nature. At that moment, they had kept Zhou Weiqing's women as their prisoners, yet, he still made such a huge sacrifice just to rescue the princess for their sake.

The Elven Queen continued to say, "We Elves will never repay kindness with revenge. How could I possibly watch the rescuer of my daughter die in front of me? At that moment, Weiqing's injury was very serious and was in great desperation – I had no choice but to use the Elven Heart."

As soon as these words left her mouth, all of the Elves were stunned with astonishment. This was because all of them knew what an Elven Heart meant to an Elf. At once, clamor burst out among the people.

"Quiet! Let Her Majesty finish her words!" The Elven First Elder exclaimed loudly without warning – a strong tyrannical aura spread out from him all at once. The Ancient Tree of Life's evolution and the Life Saint Energy that the Elven Queen had emitted told him that things were not as simple as it seemed.

The First Elder had a prestigious status among the Elves. Under his pressure, all the Elves quieted down again.

The Elven Queen seemed to have foreseen such a reaction to take place. She continued to appear calm and composed until the racket died down again before continuing to speak calmly, "You must have thought that I've sacrificed too much for him, am I right? However, I can assure you that what I've repaid is akin to a drop of water in the vast sea, as compared to the things that he's done for all of us. Just the Ancient Tree of Life behind me alone is more than enough to prove my words."

"After Weiqing was saved by me, he found me to be in an extremely weak state and immediately, he used his Saint Energy to heal me at once. The Saint Energy is the most powerful attribute in the entire world and it possesses the power of creation, also known as the Genesis Energy. My life is connected to the Ancient Tree of Life; it was all because of Weiqing who had spared no effort in the Saint Energy infusion, that we finally have this evolution right in front of our eyes. I can tell you that I've already risen to become an empress and my Elven Heart can actually be used more than once. Not only that, the effects of the Elven Heart had completely been embedded in my body now. All of this has been made possible by Zhou Weiqing right here."

As she was speaking, the six transparent wings of the Elven Queen, no, the Elven Empress, was more visible now. All six had suddenly been magnified under the golden light, allowing her people to see them more clearly.

The six wings represented the fact that the Elven Queen had now successfully evolved into the Elven Empress. In the history of the Elf Tribe, it had already been several thousand years ago since they last saw the emergence of an Elven Empress. Not only did an Elven Empress need to achieve the Maximum Level of the Heavenly God Tier, it could only also be made possible if the Ancient Tree of Life had evolved.

An invisible majestic force radiated from the Elven Empress's body. The pressuring aura was so strong that all of the Elves knelt down to pay their respects once again.

"From now on, Zhou Weiqing's order is my order as well. As the ally of us Elves, he'll be able to use all the resources in the Elf Tribe from today onwards. Going against this order will be considered treason!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

It was not only the Elves that appeared to be astonished but even Zhou Weiqing's girls too, were taken aback by this announcement.

Although they had already guessed that Zhou Weiqing had managed to strike a relationship with the Elf tribe the moment they saw him and the Elven Empress holding hands, it had never occurred to them that the Elven Empress would exalt Zhou Weiqing on such a high pedestal. One could even say that his position was now equivalent to a King in the Elf Tribe. Just that single sentence uttered by the Elven Empress "all resources can be used by Zhou Weiqing" itself had already shaken them to the core. Of course, they also believed that there must be an affair between Zhou Weiqing and the Elven Empress. They would never believe that there was nothing going on between the two of them at all.

However, as Zhou Weiqing's women, they could not voice their displeasure at this moment, no matter how jealous and dissatisfied they felt. What they could only do were to throw daggers onto a certain somebody's back with their eyes.

At this moment, the Elven Queen finally released Zhou Weiqing's hand before holding out a hand to him, "Weiqing, please come to the Ancient Tree of Life for a visit with your wives. I think we still have matters on hand to talk about among us all."

Nodding his head, Zhou Weiqing replied, "Alright."

Under the leadership of the Elven Empress, he and the five girls entered directly into the Ancient Tree of Life's tree crown. As for the rest of the Elves, they seemed to be still rather dazed and had not recovered from their shock yet. Of course, they did not need to take long to regain their senses. Now that the Elven Queen had evolved into the Elven Empress, nobody dared to go against any decision or order that she had decreed.

…

A day later….

"Little Fatty Zhou, this is not your style at all! Is there really nothing between you and the Elven Empress?" Flying in mid-air, Shangguan Fei'er looked at Zhou Weiqing, who had a look of disbelief in her eyes.

After a day of having a secret meeting with the Elven Empress, they finally departed for their return journey. The day when the secret meeting had just begun, the Elven Empress could clearly feel Zhou Weiqing's awkwardness. Immediately, she proceeded to explain to the five girls that she was merely a friend and ally for Zhou Weiqing. She even made a promise that she would be willing to marry her daughter off to his son, if he had one in the future.

Perhaps the Elven Princess had absorbed Saint Energy that was too pure, so she still remained in a hibernation state. Under the shrouding of the Ancient Tree of Life's immense Life Energy, she was slowly taking in the Saint Energy. She would most likely experience a rapid growth, but to a human being, the long lifespan of an Elf was more than enough for her to wait until the day Zhou Weiqing's future son becomes an adult.

"There's really nothing going on! I'm an honest person, and didn't Her Majesty already explain to all of you?" Zhou Weiqing looked at the five girls pitifully.

However, even the most gentle Shangguan Bing'er, had her eyes full of contempt.

Shangguan Fei'er scoffed coldly, "Who knows if she was just deliberately covering it up for you? If you two are really not having an affair at all, why would she agree to move the entire Elf Tribe to our Heavenly Bow Empire so easily? She even…"

Zhou Weiqing was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh, "I'm really innocent! Darling Fei'er, I am really not having an affair this time! Did you realize that you've been interrogating me ever since we left the Elf Tribe? Please, drop this. I'm already contented enough having the five of you accompanying me. I really don't want to bring any unnecessary trouble to myself!"

Little Witch had been staying close by his side this entire time as she needed Zhou Weiqing's guidance during the flight. With a chuckle, she asked, "Is that true? That's a f*cking Elven Empress, ya know? Even I can't help but feel proud if you have such an amazing partner. Are you sure you're really able to let her go?"
