Chapter 281: The Tree of Rebirth
-----
Flash.
Frank disappeared from the scene as he appeared inside of Yurei once more.
And now, he had acquired a new Artifact.
It was no other artifact than the Tree of Rebirth, one of the two Artifacts made by Abraddon and Thineas in ancient times before they weakened.
Such artifacts were made with immense power and divine energy, using the peak of the strength that these Gods once had long ago, which wouldn\'t be inaccurate to say that it was perhaps dozen times more than as they are now.
They had originally designed the artifacts to help all mortals, with such artifacts, they would be able to heal themselves from wounds and diseases and live happy and fulfilling lives.
However, they were unaware of mortal\'s greed, and soon enough, such artifacts were sought after by many who wanted to profit from them or use them in their own ways to acquire power.
These artifacts went from hand to hand until they separated and landed in different areas.
The Jewel of Eternal Life was once given to a Hero 100.000 years ago, who gifted it to his wife, an ancestor of the Eastgrande Family.
Since then that it had been inherited by many of its family members… often seen as a family treasure of old and not used for its true purpose, helping people.
Meanwhile, the Tree of Rebirth was lost as well, until Axitl found it deep within one of her dungeons, which she decided to seal inside a hidden room.
And now, after being capable of breaking through the hidden room through artifacts crafted not by a god but by an Ancient Sage, mortals were once more about to get their hands into such a precious tree.
However, they never expected someone that defied logic to be so near them, Frank.
Frank\'s powers surpassed even the laws of this world.
Forming an eye made of shadows that tracked the movement of these people was easy with his current abilities.
And anything the eye saw, he was able to see too.
He simply needed to switch places with the eye ad teleport right there, grab the tree, and then go out after having killed the men in front of him and absorbed their souls to acquire all their knowledge.
After getting inside Yurei, Frank quickly deposited his Divine Realm into the spatial layers within Yurei and then flew inside.
He flew above large plains which were surrounded by rocky mountains.
To the distance there was a large city surrounded by an artificially made lake and held hundreds of people inside, this was Acacia Town… or well, Acacia City now.
The secret civilization living inside of Frank\'s Divine Realm, which was, in fact, many people he had gathered which he wanted to protect.
He has been recruiting even more people lately, anywhere he went around the poor areas of Westwind, he found people in poverty almost dying.
He always gave them a hand and brought them inside his Divine Realm, this is why Westwind\'s Red-light District was so empty of homeless people living in the streets now, although most aristocrats had thought that they died from some disease or something.
He flew towards a large, 20 meters tree that was growing in the middle of these plains, surrounded by many beautiful and colorful flowers.
Around it, there were all of his allies.
"Frank! How did it go?" asked Kamei.
"It seems that things went well…" said Gwendolyn.
"It was all good, I managed to get it and escaped. I also got their souls, and I am absorbing their memories… But it will take some minutes. For now, let\'s deposit the Tree of Rebirth into the soil right away," said Frank.
"You\'re pretty good at using your powers! And quite shrewd. Really, I didn\'t expect that you would do such a thing to them, haha!" laughed Axitl.
"I believe it was the right thing to do. After all, I wasn\'t going to let that thousands-year-old demon get whatever he wanted right below my nose…" said Frank.
"Yeah, yeah, now show it to us already!" said Vheslia.
"Very well, move aside, please…" said Frank, as everyone moved far away as Frank opened his Inventory and suddenly took out a large ash tree floating in midair, which Frank had encapsulated with a Void Barrier, looking as if it was set inside a bubble.
"Woah… Such brilliance…!" said Annabelle.
"Amazing… simply amazing, this is really… Oh, Gods! It is really the Tree of Rebirth!" said Vheslia.
"It looks like an ordinary tree to me… But… it does has a lot of mana…" said Cathyl.
"Ordinary?! Come on, mom! Can\'t you notice the enormous life attribute essence it is emanating? It\'s insane!" said Hilvera.
"Well, mom is not that good at magic so don\'t blame her for not noticing that much…" laughed Asterion.
"What a beautiful artifact… is it even an artifact? It looks like the embodiment of the deities themselves… Such brilliance… A-Anyways, will you place it here?" asked Gwendolyn.
"I was planning so. I will put it right at the side of the Yggdrasil Sprout which is growing from the seed I planed here some time ago… I believe that both trees can nourish each other with their life essence," said Frank.
"Good plan, do it then!" said Axitl.
Frank nodded as he descended into the ground, slowly yet steadily moving the tree into the ground.
The Void Bubble quickly exploded as the tree was placed into the ground.
Using his authority over his own Divine Realm and Earth Manipulation, Frank had already made a deep hole for the tree\'s roots to settle down.
He slowly covered it with dirt and then began to throw many enhancements with life magic, alongside the use of his Yggdrasil Child\'s skill, which let him enhance plants even more.
"It\'s done…" said Frank while nodding.
A second after, the tree suddenly began to move strangely…
The Yggdrasil Sprout right at its side did so as well, and their roots began to move wildly below the ground!
"Oh? This…!"
Frank quickly noticed the changes, as he was amazed by what was going on.
Suddenly, the Tree of Rebirth and the Little Yggdrasil Sprout began to… fuse!
