Chapter 8 The Cornerstone of Witchcraft

On the mountainside, Hayes introduced the surrounding plants to Sean and Iruka as he walked.

"Lord, the mountainside part of the botanical garden is mainly planted with medicinal herbs, among which the hemp grass used for preparing anesthetics and the hollow flowers used for hemostatic powder are the most numerous."

Hearing this, Sean nodded. It was normal to grow herbs in the botanical garden. These herbs could not only be used to prepare some commonly used potions, but some were also used as auxiliary ingredients for magic potions.

After listening to Hayes' introduction and walking around the mountainside, Sean and his group gradually approached the top of the mountain.

"Lord, the top of the mountain is ahead."

Looking at the top of the mountain in front of him, Hayes stopped walking and stopped walking forward.

Seeing this scene, Iruka turned to Sean and said:

"Lord, outsiders are not allowed to set foot on the top of the mountain. The mountain is guarded by bitter thorn vines. Once outsiders enter, they will be attacked."

"Well, in that case Iruka, you go in with me, and Hayes can go back."

With his blue pupils sweeping across, Sean had already seen the bitter thorn vine hidden among the vegetation. Sean is very familiar with this kind of vine. It is a first-order extraordinary plant cultivated by the Montel family using special techniques. Although it is not very useful, it is still good for guarding homes and nursing homes.

Spirituality surged, outlining a simple rune, touching the bitter thorn vine, and Sean walked up with Iruka.

Looking at the backs of Sean and Iruka, Hayes' aqua blue pupils showed a trace of desire. After working for the Montel family for three years, she no longer knew anything about the extraordinary. Unfortunately, as a It is not easy for her to cross this threshold as a commoner, but it is not without hope. At least she is a big step ahead of most commoners.

The top of the botanical garden is very flat. In addition to setting aside land for planting extraordinary plants, the Montel family also built a two-story wooden cabin on it.

"Lord, the hillside where the botanical garden is located is where the magic node is located, and the top of the mountain is where the concentration of magic power is the highest. Build a small house there with complete experimental equipment, a lounge and a study room, but the conditions are a bit crude."

Upon hearing this, Sean glanced at the wooden hut but did not go there. Instead, he walked towards the middle of the top of the mountain, where there was a spring.

The spring is not big, just like a well. There are ditches around it to guide the spring water out to irrigate the plants on the mountainside and foot of the mountain.

Spirituality spread, and he felt the magic around him. Sean stood in front of the spring. With this naturally existing spring water, he would save a lot of trouble. Looking at Sean with a solemn expression, Iruka consciously Standing aside quietly.

Turning the storage ring with his left hand - a gift from nature, a big tree appeared in front of Sean, which was the extraordinary plant golden oak.

The golden oak tree is three meters high, with light golden leaves, a gray-brown trunk, and lush branches. As soon as it appears, its roots seem to come alive, drilling into the soil one after another. Even rocks cannot stop it. Easily penetrated.

A minute later, the rooting was completed, and the golden oak returned to calm. The spring water was just hidden under the body, with a main root protruding from it, sucking in the water to its heart's content.

Seeing that Golden Oak calmed down, Sean immediately took out a bottle of light golden potion from the storage ring.

Active potion, a unique potion of the Montel family, is mainly made of the top leaves of golden oak. It has a very good effect on the growth of extraordinary plants. The bottle in Sean's hand is made of the leaves of fourth-order golden oak. The first-level active medicine is extremely precious.

He stepped forward and poured the active medicine into the spring water. The originally clear spring water was suddenly dyed with a light golden color.

Hurrah, after absorbing the active spring water, the golden oak trembled for a while, and the leaves that were originally slightly dull due to transplantation also became bright again. Sean, who was still a little worried when he saw this scene, immediately relaxed. The third-order golden oak is extremely precious.

Especially in this era, there is no room for error, so I choose to waste a bottle of third-level active potion.

"Sir Iruka, in the next three days, I will sort out the magic traces, use the golden oak as the core, and activate the ritual witchcraft formation in the natural realm. Please tell me to go to the botanical garden and close it for three days."

"Your wishes, my lord."

Without asking any questions, Iruka hurriedly left the botanical garden.

Ignoring the departing Iruka, Sean began to let go of his spirituality, using the golden oak as the core to affect the surrounding magic. This process was not difficult, but it was a bit of a waste of time.

Two days later, a golden-green halo spread out with the golden oak as its core, and gradually disappeared until it reached the foot of the mountain.

Feeling the faint natural breath around him, a smile appeared on Sean's pale face. Although he was intermittently channeling his spiritual energy, he was really exhausted for two consecutive days. Fortunately, it was all worth it. .

The natural realm of the ritual witchcraft formation was formed, and the entire botanical garden was enveloped in it. The natural atmosphere grew and the sacred atmosphere was revealed. For a time, the plants spread their branches and leaves, and the pests fled quickly.

"Phew, the first-level spirituality is still too weak."

Standing on the top of the mountain, feeling the changes in the botanical garden, a smile appeared on Sean's lips. With the blessing of the natural realm of the ritual witchcraft, he could let the devil fruit tree, the cornerstone of his witchcraft, take root here.

As the cornerstone of witchcraft, the Devil's Fruit Tree can transform between reality and reality. When it becomes virtual, it can parasitize Sean's body, and when it becomes real, it can take root in the outside world.

Whispering, rustling, like the sound of a poisonous snake slithering through the grass, eleven twisted tree roots quietly emerged from Sean's back, twisting and turning like living creatures, and finally took root in the soil, which was quite strange.

The tree shadow is shaped, three meters high, completely dark, and the leaves are oval, as if they were carved from obsidian, giving it a low-key gorgeousness.

Perhaps it felt that the land was not fertile enough. After landing, the roots of the Devil's Fruit tree twisted again, like the tentacles of an octopus, causing its body to move a distance to the side again, closer to the golden oak.

As the Devil Fruit Tree separated from his body, Sean's face turned pale, but he quickly recovered and showed a hint of relief.

Although the Devil Fruit Tree inhabiting his body will increase his combat power, it will also bring him a spiritual burden. It is not suitable to maintain it for a long time, and it is not suitable for the growth of the Devil Fruit Tree.

Looking up at the cornerstone of his witchcraft, Sean fell into silence. After a year of growth, the devil fruit tree turned from a seed into a three-meter-tall tree. The growth rate was not slow, but Sean Still dissatisfied, because the characteristics of this devil fruit tree have not been displayed until today.

"Secret Words of Nature" is a special wizard secret. Although it is difficult to get started, it also has many benefits. The most obvious one is that the cornerstone of witchcraft chosen will bring special increases to the wizard. For example, a person who practices "Secret Words of Nature" "Music" The wizard who uses the Hellfire Tree as the cornerstone will get an increase in the fire attribute, and this increase will continue to increase as the Hellfire Tree grows. It is not weak, but so far the Devil Fruit Tree has not done anything for Sean. bring any additional boost.

"I don't know when the demonic tide will appear. The Devil's Fruit Tree is missing a baptism. It is much slower to rely on its own accumulation."

Whispering silently, Sean's blue pupils bloomed with a dark light.
