Global Deities: Rising as Wood Elves' God

Zhang Yi couldn’t help but nod as he witnessed this scene.

Joy Pala, the Fire Elf Leader, had undergone a complete change in mindset.

For one, Zhang Yi had crushed him with overwhelming power, forcing the Fire Elf Leader to face reality.

And once Joy Pala was forced to confront the truth,

his mental defenses were temporarily shattered.

In that moment, [Fanatical Faith] quietly took effect,

mending the Fire Elf Leader’s broken beliefs.

It caused him to convert, and he began to believe in the great Elf God!

In Zhang Yi’s eyes, a Fire Elf Leader who could adapt his mindset was a good Fire Elf Leader.

Otherwise, Zhang Yi would not have kept such a stubborn leader.

Once he had full control over this group of Fire Elves,

he would have definitely replaced him with a new, loyal, and obedient Fire Elf Leader.

But for now, Zhang Yi could state his conditions.

"Very good!"

"If the Fire Elves who erred before are willing to admit their mistakes and truly submit to the great Elf God!"

"Then the Fire Elves will now offer the remaining trunk of this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree!"

"If the Fire Elves are willing to offer up the trunk of this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree now,

then after this ritual is complete,

and you have followed the Wood Elves to my Divine Realm, I will bestow upon you the Ancient Sun Tree Seed!"

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, the pressure that had been enveloping the Fire Elves eased.

Many of the Fire Elves felt the force binding their bodies disappear and scrambled to their feet.

However, even as most of the Fire Elves’

first instinct was to stand,

the Fire Elf Leader, Joy Pala, suppressed his own urges.

He remained kneeling on the ground, prostrating himself completely, and said to the great Elf God:

"I will obey the great Elf God’s command!"

"The Fire Elves are willing to offer their loyalty, to admit their mistakes and reform!"

"I will have the Fire Elves offer the remaining trunk of this Elf Ancient Tree now!"

Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala spoke,

but to the other Fire Elves, his words sounded shockingly decisive and abrupt.

These were not words their previous leader would have ever said!

However, Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala himself knew very well,

’When I first faced the great Elf God,’

’I was the only "fool" among so many Fire Elves who was unwilling to kneel, the one who wanted to defy the great Elf God!’

’Now, the great Elf God has shown us a miracle,’

’but the Elf Ancient Tree we once worshipped is dead.’

’So, to atone for my mistakes, to please the great Elf God, and to avoid His wrath,’

’necessary sacrifices must be made, at any cost!’

For the future of the Fire Elf Tribe to continue,

even if that sacrifice was himself, the leader of the Fire Elves, Joy Pala was still willing.

This decisiveness from Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala

did not escape Zhang Yi’s notice.

Zhang Yi hadn’t expected the transformed Joy Pala to be so ruthless.

After all, the moment the great Elf God appeared,

he had used his Divine Power to gather the information revealed by the Fire Elves’ subconscious minds.

And from that, Zhang Yi learned

just how important this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree was to these Fire Elves.

You could say that for this group of Fire Elves,

this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree had been with them since birth.

When a Fire Elf died, this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree would still be standing tall.

If not for this continent’s exceedingly low magic level,

it would only be comparable to the initial magic level of Zhang Yi’s Divine Realm.

But after Zhang Yi advanced to Second Transformation Demigod and expanded his Divine Realm,

the Magic Concentration in Zhang Yi’s Divine Realm surpassed that of this continent.

Otherwise, with this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree, the Fire Elves should have been the rulers of this broken continent.

But life is unpredictable, so this was normal!

Afterward,

under Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala’s command,

the Fire Elves went to fell the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree.

However,

with the threat of a Divine Spirit on one side,

and the command of Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala on the other,

under this dual pressure,

the Fire Elves barely managed to pick up the tools to fell the Elf Ancient Tree and walk over to the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree that had accompanied them for so long.

But still, they couldn’t bring themselves to do it!

Even though they all understood that this Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree was already dead,

they still couldn’t bear to strike.

Seeing this and remembering the great Elf God’s command,

Elf Legion Commander Feiyana, standing nearby, made a suggestion to Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala.

"Why not let our group of Wood Elves help?"

Hearing Elf Legion Commander Feiyana’s words, Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala did not agree.

Instead, Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala gave his answer:

"This is the first trial the great Elf God has given us Fire Elves!"

"A trial set by the Elf God cannot be completed by borrowing the hands of others!"

Hearing this, Elf Legion Commander Feiyana gave up the idea of helping.

In the end, with Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala taking action personally,

the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree, which was nothing but a trunk, finally fell!

As the Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree toppled, Fire Elf Leader Joy Pala immediately commanded it to be sent to the altar!

[Event]: Under your intimidation, you have subdued a new Clan of Fire Elves!

[Event]: You have gained 2,451 Faith Value!

[The host’s offering has been detected: the trunk of a Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree, missing its Elf Tree Heart. The Golden Finger is now refreshing to provide three options for the host to choose from!]

[Option 1]: 50 Fire Elves. 50 Fire Elves who are completely loyal to the great Elf God.

[Option 2]: 1 Seed of the Ancient Flame Tree. A Fire Attribute Elf Ancient Tree with excellent potential. It can condense Life Essence and cultivate the Fire Elves’ Upper-Rank Clan—the Flame Elves. Additionally, the Blazing Ancient Tree has the potential to become a Ninth Level unit.

[Option 3]: 100 exclusive Weapons for Fire Elves. A fifty-fifty split between equipment for Fire Elf Magic Apprentices and melee Weapons forged from Magic Iron Ore, enough to equip 100 Fire Elf units.

Zhang Yi looked at the offering presented this time and the options triggered by his Golden Finger.

It was safe to say that the three options this time

were simply a low-spec version of the options that had appeared for the Elf Tree Heart.

[Option 1] offered Fire Elves, but the number dropped from the original three hundred to the current fifty.

It was a six-fold decrease!

And the reward for [Option 2] was a Seed of the Blazing Ancient Tree.

Given that Zhang Yi already possessed the Ancient Sun Tree Seed,

he now looked down on this Seed of the Blazing Ancient Tree.

’The Fire Elves’ potential can clearly be greater, so why would I choose the lesser option?’

Moreover, once the Sun Ancient Tree matured, it would possess all the abilities of the Blazing Ancient Tree, and they would be even better!

So after a single glance at [Option 2], Zhang Yi chose to dismiss it.

As for [Option 3],

the original reward was a Seven Transformation Semi-Divine Artifact—the Sun God Bow, capable of instantly killing any unit below Tier Seven.

But now it had become fifty pieces of equipment for Fire Elf Magic Apprentices and fifty pieces of equipment for Fire Elf Warriors.

Compared to the rewards refreshed by the Elf Ancient Tree Heart, the difference was just too great!
