Misty Forest.

It's a vast primeval forest, and there's a Lost Forest in a similar place, both of which are places where special creatures exist. Sauron's current location was full of ancient trees with intertwined roots, and the branches of the trunks in front of him formed the shape of a gate, which looked unremarkable, but when he walked in, it was a different world.

This place is called the Jungle Gate.

The gift left by the natural god system is also a world that the tree people cultivate together.

In other words, this is an independent half-plane, a special half-plane built on the material plane and connected to the elemental plane based on the misty forest. This is the center of the Misty Forest, the surrounding fog can affect the minds of other people, and even make high-level professionals hallucinate, usually very few people can come here, this trip to Sauron is also a stop to see if you can get a little special benefit.

The Jungle Gate is a special half-plane.

Its existence rests on the rhizome of a large ancient tree, an ancient tree of indefinite age that has died, but the rhizome still retains a great deal of power, so the 'Guardians of Nature' have transformed it into a separate half-plane. Even wild druids must be collectively approved by the members of the High Council before they can enter. Because this is the sleeping place of many Treants, there is a great secret hidden inside the Jungle Gate.

This is a large legendary-level dungeon of the year.

The so-called copies are actually the names of adventurers, and many things in this world cannot be copied. The concept of 'copy' is nothing more than a joke.

There are very few documented dungeons, and most of the team challenge levels are level 15 or higher.

Moreover.

Most of what can be called 'copies' are separate half-planes.

For example, the city of Mordor, which Sauron now rules. As well as the Wizard Tower of the Shadow Plane, the War Chess Half-Plane, the Secret Laboratory, etc., these places are almost all Legendary level challenge dungeons, in other words.

The Jungle Gate has not mutated yet.

After the outbreak of the Sage Catastrophe, many places were irreparably damaged due to huge energy fluctuations, and the battle of the gods left the material plane in full holes. So the Jungle Gate has undergone some kind of terrible upheaval in the future, so that the treants here are affected by the berserk power, and the fire from the Bato Hell has affected the sanity of the treants. Let them hate those who destroy nature, and in the future, the entire Misty Forest will become a dangerous zone with challenge level 12 and above.

Of course.

It's still relatively peaceful here, the Jungle Gate hasn't been destroyed, and the structure of the half-plane is still very stable.

One of the reasons why Sauron came here in person.

I just want to sneak inside the Jungle Gate. There's something he's interested in here as well.

A strange thing that can improve its stats!

It was mentioned earlier. There are very few things that can increase the attributes of the entire material plane, and such things are very precious even to the gods. It just so happens that inside the Jungle Gate, there is such a thing, and its value to Sauron is quite amazing!

By then, though, it was already a mess.

He was still a little worried about alarming the Class 36 Nature Guardian if he sneaked in now, but it was worth the risk.

- "Sage form!" ”

- "Wanderer [Priesthood]! ”

The Wanderer's Cleric Realm grants Sauron an additional stealth bonus, and he carefully perceives his surroundings. Then slowly step into the gate made of tree branches in front of you.

Space warps.

In the blink of an eye, Sauron had appeared in another dimension.

There are lush trees everywhere in front of you. Unlike the destroyed and burned dead wood everywhere, the inside of the Jungle Gate is now full of life. At the farthest end of Sauron's line of sight, there is an oak tree hundreds of meters high, which is a level 21 oak wise man and one of the guardians left behind by the nature gods.

Treants.

This special form of life species, although they rarely appear in the eyes of others, still retains some extremely powerful creatures.

Treants can also be advanced to the profession.

If Sauron remembers correctly, the sleeping Oak Sage in front of him has a class level of - Level 10 Druid/Level 10 Shepherd/Level 5 Oak Sage/Level 1 Nature Guardian.

The total class level is 26 and the challenge level is 21.

Treants can be gifted by nature over time, and many of them are born with the abilities of Druids and special advanced class Treants, and their challenge level is even higher if not for their obvious weaknesses.

The inside of the Jungle Gate is quiet.

There are not too many animals living here, only countless ancient trees exist, and ordinary people will feel drunk with oxygen when they come in.

Most of the wood in front of you is oak.

Oak is one of the trees that is most likely to spawn treants, and relying on god-level perception, Sauron can easily spot at least a dozen or more treemen nearby with a creature level of 10 or higher.

A clear river flows down from the mountains in the distance.

Sauron carefully avoided the treant's senses, and then gradually descended into the Jungle Gate.

This place has not been destroyed by the war, so the map in memory is useless, and there is still a quiet and peaceful paradise in front of me, where the tree people sleep quietly.

"Giggles!"

"Don't make a fuss! Tarindy! I'll be angry if I'm naughty again! ”

Crisp laughter came from ahead, and Sauron faded alertly into the shadows, then approached little by little.

Three beautiful figures appeared in front of them.

They looked a bit like elves, wearing beautiful dresses of red, yellow, and green, and they were sitting by the river and playing, and their graceful bodies were full of indescribable charm.

Dryads.

One of the inhabitants of the Jungle Gate.

If the war hadn't spread here, most of the dryads here hadn't died, so this should be the place where the most dryads lived on the physical plane.

They are the companions of ancient trees, beautiful darlings born naturally.

The Dryads couldn't leave the ancient tree they were living with for too long, so the Ancient Tree they were relying on should be nearby, Sauron watched quietly for a while, not disturbing the frolicking beautiful Dryads, but continuing along the river into the interior of the Jungle Gate.

In the deepest part of here.

That is, the place where the guardians of nature sleep, there is a special pool left over from ancient times, in which the essence of life is nurtured, and it is customary to call it 'water of life'.

That's what Sauron was aiming for.

A special artifact that permanently increases its lifespan and increases its Constitution by 1.

Sauron's current constitution is 24.

As the class level gets higher and higher, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain attribute points, and if he can get the water of life in advance, then he can directly obtain the ability of epic physique.

Moreover.

Lifespan and immortality may be nothing to the gods, but to other creatures, they are incalculable in value.

As the Sages incarnated by the gods, the only people who can threaten Sauron here are the powerful guardians of nature.
