The altar itself, though devoid of energy flow, seems to have a special material and structure that better aids the Light Seed in stabilizing its form. It acts as a natural amplifier and anchor point, assisting in establishing a connection with the external environnt.
anwhile, not far away, the World Tree Seed, deeply embedded in the life force-rich soil and radiating a rhythm of inclusiveness and harmony, also seems attracted by this pure light essence wave. Its verdant life rhythm slightly intensifies, like a gentle elder extending an invisible hand, softly brushing over the Light Seed and ancient altar, helping them better integrate with the tone of the Divine Court.
The light rule of the Light God Court itself, under the potential influence of Divine Status, shows an unreserved welco to this kindred and pure essence.
In the air and the earth, the light attributes of the Light God Court, relatively young and active, begin to engage in a slow and harmonious exchange and complent with the older and richer light essence exuding from the Light Seed.
Duke can clearly perceive that, using the ancient altar as a base, the Light Seed is successfully extending its roots — those minute golden light strands — into the earth of the Divine Court. It establishes preliminary yet resilient connections with the geopathic veins, the World Tree Seed’s influence range, and the entire light rule network of the Divine Court.
It begins to absorb the gentlest energy from the environnt, primarily the life aura harmonized by the World Tree Seed and the Light Attribute Energy Particles of the Divine Court, undergoing subtle nourishnt.
Simultaneously, it return-feeds its pure light essence bit by bit, silently enhancing the light quality of the Divine Court’s environnt.
"Perfect," Duke praises in his heart. Using the original altar indeed yields twice the result with half the effort.
Next, based on this stable foundation, is to construct the energy utilization channels.
Of course, Duke wouldn’t rely use the Light Seed as a one-ti energy source; that would be too wasteful.
Both the Light Seed and the Moon Well are unique and rare resources.
If well-utilized, they can provide a continuous stream of benefits.
Duke plans to adopt a similar approach as with the Moon Well, intending to use the Light Seed to obtain an Energy Well over the long term, stably.
The overall thods are much like the Moon Well, with the most crucial diversion runes carved along the altar’s edge, on the path where the Light Seed’s Energy Field naturally disperses.
These runes, like precise sieves and flow guides, gently direct a portion of the most suitable dispersing energy towards the preset storage system, without interfering with the Light Seed’s core cycle and symbiotic process.
When the final rune activates, and Duke sees that pure, warm golden energy stream beginning to trickle along the invisible channel into the spherical core container, he knows a brand new Light Attribute Energy Well has quietly begun accumulating power in this world belonging to him.
After completing the installation of the Light Seed and the preliminary construction of the Energy Well within the Light God Court, Duke estimates that with the current energy flow rate naturally dispersing from the Light Seed as guided, and the efficiency of the Dark Energy separation system, it will take about five to six months for the Light Energy Well and Dark Energy Well to reach designed capacity and enter the stable production phase.
This speed far exceeds expectations, and he is very satisfied.
At this rate, Duke will have two Light Attribute Energy Wells and Dark Attribute Energy Wells each year, all priceless resources.
Returning to the small house above the Magic Potion Shop in Azure Vault City, daylight has already broken outside.
He is in no hurry to leave the Oracle Plane. After briefly informing Robert of his safe return, he has him compile and send over all the intelligence gathered recently regarding the aftermath of the ruins event.
Soon, a large amount of information floods into Duke’s mind through Robert and Duke’s follower channels.
This information cos from player forum discussions, accounts from Star Embers Guild mbers in various places, and snippets circulating within the Four Gods Sect that Robert heard through certain channels.
After the light mbrane collapse, a full-blown lee erupted, lasting an entire day and night. Players suffered heavy casualties, and the respawn costs were painful for many. The Four Gods Sect’s elite also lost quite a few people, not to ntion the needless exhaustion from energy rampage and remnants of ancient traps.
Finally, when the dust settled and people rushed into the core area of the ruins, they saw nothing but an empty altar base. Even the altar itself was gone, and the ruins, once lively due to the core, had beco ordinary debris.
No treasure, no artifact, just a ss and countless question marks.
The Four Gods Sect was exceedingly furious. The two Magic Masters overseeing the situation faced bla within their respective sects for "failing to supervise" and "failing to detect anomalies in ti."
The sect’s higher-ups suspect that an unknown powerful force or secretive ans intervened to steal the core treasure ahead of ti. Currently, they have ordered a thorough investigation of all recent anomalies and energy fluctuations, and conducted so internal cleansing. Tensions are high, and their attitude toward players has also beco more cautious and hostile.
The player community is abuzz with uproar, suspicion, and conspiracy theories.
The forums are filled with all kinds of speculation.
"Did a system bug swallow the ultimate reward?"
"Did a player trigger a super hidden solo quest and take it all?"
"Is it an NPC faction playing dirty against each other?"
...
Most players feel played, angered and disappointed, their emotions perating the atmosphere.
