Chapter 464: Recovery Formation
Chapter 464: Recovery Formation
"Please take care of this necklace, Nell." Elysia passed the Nature Realm Core into Nell's hands.
"Mm, I'll be watching from here. Please let me know when you want to come back." Nell nodded in understanding.
"Okay, we're leaving and will probably be back in the morning." Elysia waved her hand.
"See you later, Little Nell." Rhea waved her hand also from inside Elysia's arms.
After that, Elysia, Elena, and Rhea entered the portal. Nell floated closer, and Elysia reached out to touch the green gem in Nell's hand.
The portal instantly shrunk to the size of Nell's head, then Elysia retracted her finger.
"Huff..." Nell looked at the necklace in her hand and heaved a subtle sigh. She looked around the room briefly and felt a little lonely.
At that moment, she was asked to take care of the core while Elysia and Elena entered the Nature Realm to restore her big sister.
"That was quite fun. Who would have thought that Elysia had so many brilliant ideas to spend time with all kinds of fun games." Nell shook her head and went to get a wooden box on the table.
It was one of the strategy games that Elysia created this afternoon. Everyone had fun playing together at that time until night fell, and it was time for bed.
Nell decided to play against herself while waiting and watching the Nature Realm through mini-portal.
"Mother, we're back." Rhea waved her hand high to greet the lone tree on the beautiful and fertile hill.
"Oh, welcome back. Are you guys going to help my daughter recover soon, Elena, Elysia?" Lifa replied with a bit of pleasure.
"Well yeah, let's do that recovery formation right away. What do we need to do?" Elena looked left and right as if she was looking for a suitable spot.
"Sure, sure. I've made a list of the materials you need to prepare beforehand. They're in the Nature Palace Treasury. Please bring them here." Lifa shed her three leaves and made them fly to Elena.
"Hm..." Elena caught the leaves. She read the list with a raised eyebrow. After all, all the items written were utterly foreign to her.
As if knowing Elena's difficulty, Lifa chuckled and added. "Hehe, Rhea will help to get all those items. My daughter knows what it takes."
"Here." Elena just gave the leaves to Rhea.
"Then let's go to the treasury. Mother, we'll be right back." Rhea hugged the leaves and waved her hand again at the Tree of Life.
"Hmm." Lifa shook her branch slightly.
After that, Elena and Elysia flew towards a magnificent palace at the foot of the hill.
They immediately entered through the main gate that opened by itself as if the palace was welcoming them.
It wasn't the first time Elysia had seen and visited this divine-class palace. Nevertheless, it was still impressed and amazed her every time she gazed up at the pinnacle splendor of such a majestic building.
"Lifa is a tree, and her real body cannot enter her own Private Realm. It must be complicated to build everything from the ground up." Elena looked around while flying into the palace as if she was looking for a reference.
"Yes, my mother took more than ten thousand years to complete this realm until it could be inhabited by living beings. But, my mother can't even remember how long it took her to make this Nature Realm to be like this." Rhea nodded in agreement and leaned in Elysia's arms. Two soft yet cozy cushions were there for comfort.
"Well, that's quite a long time..." Elena scowled a little at knowing the time it would take to build a beautiful Private Realm. However, her eyes immediately sparkled as she remembered that Elysia's Soul Realm was a completely different one.
"What about your Private Realm, Master Elena, Master Elysia? This is my unanswered question until now. Please forgive me for asking this. However, I have never seen your Private Realm Core anywhere, and Master Elena can enter and exit that realm at will heart. How can that be achieved?" Rhea felt a little hesitant to ask, but curiosity triumphed over anything else.
"For that, well... I'll tell you this for this occasion. You can't tell anyone, understand?" Elena whispered while covering her mouth.
"Hm-mm, your secret is safe with me, Master Elena." Rhea felt both relieved and excited. She eagerly waited for the answer to come out of Elena's mouth.
"Our Private Realm Core is Elysia herself. It is integrated into Ely's own existence. You are Elysia's Patron Goddess. You know what you need to do with this." Elena spoke in a mosquito-like voice as if what she said had too much importance.
She even sealed her voice to not spreading more than half a meter from her mouth. Only Rhea and Elysia were able to hear her.
"Ah, um, I completely understand, Master Elena." Rhea nodded in understanding even though confusion popped out in her mind. Nevertheless, she only considers it as Elysia and Elena another unknown divinity.
"Do you know how Lifa managed and built this realm during construction?" Elena smiled and immediately changed the topic.
"My mother once told me that she could only use her avatar to organize and build a private world of her dreams. At that time, the realm's core was not as developed and sophisticated as it is today. My mother spent a lot of time in her domain for it." Rhea put her finger to her chin while trying to remember things far in the past.
"Domain? What kind of domain do you mean?" Elena was instantly taken aback.
"Unlike a mortal domain, the divine domain is a special one. To be honest, even if the Nature Realm's Core is in someone else's hands, only Master Elysia and my mother can control everything in this realm. My mother is the first owner, and Master Elysia is the second owner. My mother can also open a portal using her domain. But, my mother hasn't recovered and doesn't seem willing to use more authority than Master Elysia." Rhea gave an answer without hesitation.
"So you're saying that the Private Realm has two levels of authority, the original owner and the realm's core holder? So, if Ely closed the portal and the necklace was in the outside world, only Lifa can open the portal for us to return? But, wait, realm's core can't get in here, right?" Elena folded her arms with some thoughts in mind.
As it turned out, Lifa didn't give the Nature Realm to Elysia. Instead, Elysia was only appointed as the second owner.
"Mm, it's as you say, Master Elena. Please don't harbor any prejudice against my mother. My mother has no other intentions. Ah, we've arrived." Rhea pointed her hand at the giant azure gate.
Elena and Elysia put their feet on the ground, then walked closer to the gate. But, it just opened as if it knew that the master had come to visit.
"Hm, so it's like that. Elysia is already counted as Nature Realm's master after Lifa. But, can I know what kind of divine domain she uses to connect the outside world with this realm?" Elena nodded in understanding. However, her focus was elsewhere.
"My mother's divine domain is called Spirit Domain. You can talk to my mother directly if you want to know more, Master Elena. I'm afraid it would be rude and disrespectful to tell more about my mother without her knowing it." Rhea gave Elena an apologetic look.
"Oh, it's okay. Thanks for telling me, Rhea. I'll have a friendly chat with Lifa later." Elena smiled warmly and stroked Rhea's head.
'Ely, Ely, Ely! That is the answer to build our realm faster and more powerfully. We just need to have our own divine domain, and everything will be easy. We will have our own world with us as absolute rulers. Oops, you are the absolute ruler, and I am your consort.' Elena tweeted excitedly to express her brilliant idea.
'Wait a minute! I remember you said that as a confidant, not a consort...' Elysia confirmed the wrong statement. But, she felt helpless because Elena just smiled playfully at her.
"Hum-hum, let's see..." Rhea looked at the items written on the list. She only used her telekinesis-like magic to take tons of items from the surrounding shelves and storage areas.
Rhea, along with Elysia and Elena, proceeded to treasury levels two, three, and four to retrieve all the materials needed. After that, they immediately returned to the Hill of Prosperity.
"It took a while for you to return. So, how? Have all the materials been brought without the slightest lack of quantity?" Lifa greeted the three approaching girls.
"Yes, it's all in this Space Bag." Rhea patted a Space Bag in her arms.
"Well then, let's start the energy recovery formation for you, my daughter. Elysia, Elena, I ask for your cooperation to make this recovery formation a success. If it is perfect, maybe my daughter can completely recover with just two stages of formation." Lifa moved her branch to point at a spot five meters away from her.
"Alright. But, will this formation take all night to complete?" Elena moved toward the designated spot with Elysia and Rhea.
"To be honest, if you are thorough and my daughter can absorb all the magic energy with your help perfectly, then it will only take no more than three hours for one stage. Take this, I have written down every step you and Elysia need to pay attention to during the formation." Lifa shed a leaf, and it flew to Elena.
"Hm, alright, this is easy. Let's finish this perfectly." Elena read the instructions and glanced at Elysia. The latter nodded in response.
"My daughter, you can prepare the recovery formation, right?" Lifa asked, just in case.
"Leave it to me." Rhea patted her chest and took out some materials from the Space Bag. She started working on setting it up, including creating a few magic circles.
