While quickly moving through the woods, the elves rejoiced that they successfully escaped from their enemies. However, Ilbrien had a grave countenance all along.

"Why did you attack them Ilbrien?" the female elf asked him about his impulsive action.

Ilbrien seemed too serious. It could be because of the rune he had lost, but it didn't seem so.

"Finnea, do you still remember what our master told us? Our master is not only one of the strongest cultivators of our clan, but he recently joined one of the expeditions to the Forbidden Grounds that was directly under the Queen commands."

"What?! He entered the Forbidden Grounds?"

"No, he said, they went to investigate the situation on the borders. It seems that a plague originated there and infected some wild beasts on that territory, however, nothing they attempt to do could control them or revert their situation back to normal."

Ilbrien continued: "At that time, when master came back, he told us that this plague could somehow leave the barrier around the Forbidden Grounds and spread to some minor lifeforms at that region. After that he strictly told us to not approach those regions and take care to not enter in contact with it. Finnea, look at this!"

Ilbrien took out a transparent crystal, and inside it there was a drop of red water that resembled blood.

"Is that a World Tree droplet inside?" Finnea didn't know what shocked her more, the legendary World Tree droplet, or its color right now. The world tree droplet was something so pure and sacred that not even poison could soil it. It would forever be pure and translucent; however, it has been dyed blood red!

"Yes. Master gave me this before we departed. It was his reward after joining such a risky expedition. This droplet had never been contaminated by anything, as it came from the sacred tree. But while they were trying to cure the infected species, they tried using it and it shocked the researchers to their core when the plague contaminated it almost instantly when nearing the substances."

"!!!" Finnea would never believe it if she hadn't seen the droplet color.

"This World Tree droplet was crystal clear just before we encountered those humans. Do you understand how grave it is now?"

"You're saying that someone there was infected?"

Ilbrien just nodded.

"If I'm not wrong, my arrow scratched that black haired guy." Finnea said.

"Oh! That's good. He will be unconscious for a long time and we could use this chance to investigate the situation better. Let's go report this."

"Yes, let's hurry and report it."

Seth felt like he was flying through space and time, drifting endlessly through the void. At some point in time, red lines started to cover the endless darkness.

He kept going forward and the lines were getting bigger and more common.

Crack!

A red fissure destroyed the void, ripping it apart. He started to feel an irresistible attraction pulling him downwards.

Thud!

Seth fell from the void crashing on the floor below. The ground here was made on dark and red matter that was constantly moving.

He looked up and saw what it seemed to be a throne. This room was big and it seemed to be a throne room, however, there was no one sitting on it.

Seth stood up and walked towards the throne. He felt that what attracted him before was definitely it.

When he was almost reaching the throne, a voice resounded in the entire room. His body got paralyzed and couldn't move even an inch anymore.

"It is impressive you were able to reach this place, Tyrant, but you are not qualified to sit there."

Seth felt an endless will to revolt that seemed to fueled by something. Inside his body, the seed was trying to break the second seal on its own. The power accumulating and it seemed totally different from Qi or Mana.

"Your time is up. As a parting gift, I shall help you this time."

The energy that was floating in the room and spreading on the floor instantly rushed towards Seth, entering his body and going directly on the second seal.

It hit the seal like a steel hammer.

Clang!

Seth wasn't understanding anything. He was just wanted to destroy this energy binding him and sit on the throne at all cost.

When the energy hit the seal, Seth went flying like a rocket through the room and entered the void again.

"How can that be?" Lexi was doing her all, to purify the poison within his body. She analyzed the poison and discovered that its essence was an energy endlessly stronger than Seth. She concluded that it was from a Mana Sovereign beast.

For their fortune, the Mana sovereign essence was infimal inside the poison. It seemed the Elves discovered a way to dilute such poison and even going as far as using it on their frontier defenses.

At this rate Lexi would need at least a month to purify everything and expel it from his body. Seth would not be able to enter the Fire Labyrinth and it would be a disaster.

While Lexi thought of any other possible way to purify it faster, she felt the seed react and its second seal open instantly.

"Oh no!" Based on the first experience Seth had opening one of those seals, Lexi knew nothing good was going to come out of this.

However, this time, the energy liberated inside his body was ten times stronger than the previous time and he was unconscious, he could not control it.

But, before she could even experience that crisis, all that uncontrolled energy forcefully expelled all the poison from his body and went directly inside each cell they passed through, reforging them.

Lexi watched that happening in disbelief. The energy was tamed, something she thought was impossible.. Each cell on his body was now glowing red, with sparks circling them.
