Chapter 2324 Suck, Suck, Suck
Even without Fang Heng’s involvement, the elite vampires proficient in magic arrays were confident they could complete Abe Akaya’s teleportation magic array.

In just three minutes, with everyone’s concerted effort, Abe Akaya’s magic array was swiftly set up.

Standing before the magic array, Fang Heng looked up at the chaotic state of the sapling of the sacred tree in the center of the Great Hall.

The only concern now was whether Abe Akaya might also be affected by the pollution.

Regardless, there was no time to dwell on it!

The concentration of black fog inside the Great Hall had begun to diminish.

It was estimated that the Wood tribe was already on their way.

There was no time to spare.

“Let’s try this!”

“Follow me, initiate the magic array,” Fang Heng commanded.

“Yes!”

Fang Heng clasped his hands together in front of him, his mental strength surging rapidly as he swiftly infused it into the magic array through the stone slabs.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!”

At the center of the spinning magic array, a red vortex appeared, emitting a faint crimson glow.

“Chi! Chi! Chi!!!”

Several root tendrils of Abe Akaya emerged from the magic array.

[Hint: The player has summoned a portion of the roots of Abe Akaya through a special magic array.]

[Hint: Abe Akaya is currently affected by an unknown power, his ability has been greatly reduced.]

Fang Heng immediately shouted, “Abe Akaya, can you absorb it!”

Abe Akaya had just entered this polluted domain, still unclear about the situation. Upon Fang Heng’s prompt, he immediately noticed the nearby sapling of the sacred tree emitting black smoke.

Instantly, Abe Akaya became excited.

“Good stuff!”

It was like a hungry demon seeing a feast after three days and nights without food.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

Abe Akaya’s vines rapidly overflowed from the magic array, extending towards the central sapling of the sacred tree.

“Be careful,” Fang Heng immediately communicated with Abe Akaya mentally, reminding him, “This thing could be toxic.”

“Whoosh!”

Abe Akaya, seeing a feast right before him, couldn’t care less about the risks. He decided to take a small bite to test the poison first!

[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbs the energy… Abe Akaya gains 120,000 experience points.]

[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbs the energy… Abe Akaya gains 325 points of dimensional energy…]

[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbs some unknown energy, but the level of this energy is too high, surpassing his control….]

[Hint: Abe Akaya is in a chaotic state…]

[Hint: Abe Akaya’s experience points have decreased by 300,000…]

Hints flashed across Fang Heng’s retina.

Suddenly, Abe Akaya’s vines, having absorbed the strength of the sacred tree sapling, began thrashing uncontrollably, almost wildly dancing.

“Hey, are you okay…”

Fang Heng frowned.

“I told you not to absorb too much. Now look, poisoned, right?”

For Abe Akaya as a whole, it had only absorbed a mouthful of contaminated power, and the negative effects were not great. After falling into a brief two seconds of chaos, it quickly recovered.

After taking a gulp, Abe Akaya gained over 300 points of multidimensional energy but ended up losing nearly 200,000 experience points.

Calculating it all, it was still a net loss.

Abe Akaya immediately conveyed a sense of frustration and helplessness.

The feast was right in front of him, yet he couldn’t fully enjoy it—it was truly agonizing!

Fang Heng rubbed his chin, examining the sapling of the sacred tree.

He felt even more distressed than Abe Akaya.

Finally resolving all the troubles, Fang Heng exerted great effort to summon Abe Akaya.

But just when they were about to kick things into gear, this thing couldn’t absorb?

Was this a mind game?

Fang Heng walked up to the sapling of the sacred tree once again, observing its current state.

According to Argyll, the polluted seed could indeed disrupt the stability of the sacred tree sapling, rendering it ineffective for a period.

However, due to the effects of the black fog within him, their damage to the sacred tree sapling had clearly exceeded Argyll’s predictions.

Therefore, the true culprit destabilizing this sacred tree sapling wasn’t the polluted seed itself but the power of the “Seed of Jealousy” that had just leaked from Fang Heng.

Following this line of thought…

Since it was the demonic seed’s pollution that he released, could there be a way to retrieve it?

That’s the theory.

However, Fang Heng couldn’t even understand how the pollution from the ‘Seed of Jealousy’ was released in the first place, let alone figure out how to retrieve it.

With no time to dwell on it, Fang Heng simply reached out and touched the sapling of the sacred tree once again.

Try and see!

Absorb!

Fang Heng immediately channeled his mental strength, attempting to reabsorb the power of the Seed of Jealousy!

Huh?!

There was actually a ripple?

Fang Heng’s soul stirs.

Wow!

It really worked!

Fang Heng’s eyes widened in surprise.

Against his expectations, under his mental manipulation, the dark pollution aura actually began to slowly be absorbed back into his palm.

But…

Fang Heng furrowed his brow.

During the absorption process, he needed to exert full control over the flow of his mental strength. Any slight relaxation would cause the polluted aura to uncontrollably flow back.

D*mn it!

It’s like driving a manual transmission.

Fortunately, boosted by the increase in multidimensional energy, Fang Heng’s mental strength had also significantly strengthened, allowing him to sustain the absorption of the “Seed of Jealousy” power for some time.

Let’s continue!

Fang Heng gritted his teeth, releasing his mental strength to steadily absorb the polluted power back into his sea of consciousness.

As the polluted power was reclaimed by Fang Heng, the previously agitated sacred tree sapling visibly stabilized at a rapid pace.

“Hurry! Abe Akaya! It’s working!”

Abe Akaya, eager and ready, quickly surged forward upon hearing Fang Heng’s call. The vines enveloping him swiftly attached themselves to the sacred tree sapling.

“Gulp, gulp…”

It began absorbing vigorously!

[Hint: Abe Akaya has absorbed the multidimensional energy stored in the sapling of the sacred tree. The current dimensional energy has been converted into experience points +898,200.]

[Hint: Abe Akaya absorbed the energy of the sapling of the sacred tree. Abe Akaya’s experience points +2,112,200.]

[Hint: Abe Akaya has absorbed a portion of unknown energy. The level of the unknown energy is too high and is out of control…]

[Hint: Abe Akaya is in a chaotic state…]

[Hint: Abe Akaya’s experience points decreased by 543,000…]

Although Fang Heng had not completely absorbed the power of pollution from the sapling of the sacred tree, and Abe Akaya still suffered some negative effects, it was much better than before.

At least he had earned it!

Fang Heng’s eyes flashed with excitement.

Very good!

Then increase the intensity!

Continue absorbing!

Fang Heng quickly realized that this time was different from when he absorbed the sapling of the Leaf tribe’s sacred tree.

In the sapling, there was more dimensional strength involved, but at that time, Abe Akaya had not awakened his dimensional abilities, so the dimensional strength was directly converted into experience points.

This time, it was absorbing the sapling’s main body!

In the main body, most of the natural energy provided to Abe Akaya contributed to experience points, with multidimensional energy also present but not in as high a proportion.

Overall, the total amount of multidimensional strength absorbed might not have been as much as when he absorbed the Wood tribe sapling last time.

Fang Heng could understand this point.

After all, if it were him, he would have kept only a portion of the multidimensional energy for occasional needs, while the rest was consumed to enhance his dimensional level. Of course, that limited how much he could absorb.
