The inexhaustible life force in the forest comes from the brewing of water and sunlight from every tree. In André's mind, this wonderful change is the undisputed source of organic matter in the world, but in the forests of Garlandia, it is clearly more than that.

If plants accumulate life mainly through sunlight, then animals naturally eat. It's actually a very simple and straightforward question...... If you don't eat animals, where can you get the energy and materials you need to survive!?

But if you want to be like Kasanna, like a wonderful and efficient furnace of life, using food as fuel and itself as an energy conversion "device", it is obviously not a simple matter.

According to Illion, it takes thousands of years for every dragon to fully master this all-important unique ability. If it weren't for such an efficient means of regenerating life mana, the dragon's consumption would far exceed its own physical recovery! Even with this magical means, the dragons who walked on the earth in their true bodies still left rumors of "drowsiness".

From this, it can be seen that the incomparably powerful physique of the dragons is not only the basis of their extraordinary strength, but can also be seen as a burden to some extent. Thus came into being Ryushima's standard for the adult of dragons - only dragons who had mastered the art of life in their sleep and the art of changing their human form by their own abilities could be called adults and allowed to travel alone.

Dragons who do not possess these two abilities will encounter endless troubles when they travel through the mortal world, and although mortals are in awe of them because of their strength, there are also those who dare to do crazy acts simply because of greed, and even a scale that falls off automatically due to wear and tear is enough to be regarded as a rare treasure by mortals.

And there are a lot of such guys among the human beings who lack the precipitation of civilization and have a short life, but they think very highly of themselves! If they do not master the magical spell of changing into a human form, not only will they be easily exposed to the eyes of the mortal race, but the huge consumption of their actions will inevitably become a burden in long-term activities. If you can't quickly recover your magic power through "dreaming", then once you show your true body, it means that your actions will be greatly limited by "physical strength".

And the reason why Kasena is regarded as "young" by other insiders, including those of her own race, is because she has completed her rite of passage with her true age of only 700 years old and a talent far beyond her own race. Even though the Star Feather Dragon, which uses life magic as its origin, has an advantage over several other dragons on the way to "adulthood", a dragon that has "reached adulthood" at the age of 700 is still unique after so many years. The reason why Illion is so familiar with Kasena is because the "young" Lady Star Feather was one of the closest contemporaries of the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Lozan, when she was studying on Dragon Island.

André thinks that the elven princess's knowledge of the dragon is of great significance, especially when Kasena has already set out on her way home, and the entire elven kingdom's collection of books has no specific information about the dragon's lineage. After a brief encounter, the Children of the Abyss, impressed by the legendary mighty race, could only speculate on the mystery of the dragon's power through hearsay like this.

For this reason, in just half a year, Andre forcibly raised his druid "level" to "Lv14", which is higher than that of a dark warlock, through his powerful spiritual power that is different from ordinary people, the endless life magic provided by the World Tree Seed, and the understanding of the mysteries of the nature of life obtained from another civilization!

However, this is only a matter of course for Andre, who has more than twenty spirits and has a holy relic like the Garanord Seed to provide magical power. You must know that André has already confirmed that there are only a few people in the entire forest whose spiritual attributes are higher than his own, including Enriel, High Priest Iyeta, and the high-ranking members of the Druid Church. Even Judion, who he knew very well, was only between him.

It wasn't as difficult as the dragon could have been to accumulate life force through a special magical way of working, at least not when Andre had not been able to wear the World Tree Seed. However, the ability that Yudeon and Enriel seemed to be enough to be called a "feat" didn't mean much to the Children of the Abyss - it was only one or two Mana per minute, and even André's life mana recovery rate could be twice as fast as this level if he brought the Garanord seed.

Mastering what André calls the "Dragon's Breath" spell, which the dragon operates while breathing and resting, is actually a real point for him, and in the process, he has made great strides in mastering the magic of life, and the spell to treat ordinary injuries is no longer a problem for him.

Even the composition of his own magic became:

Health: 335/335 (Garanord Seed +215) Mana

Shadow: 89/89Mana

Putting aside the ability of the Eye of the Abyss, from the perspective of the origin of magic alone, the current Andre is more like a pure elf than the Children of the Abyss. However, this great stride in the "way of nature" does not seem to play a key role in his quest for the true source of the dragons' power.

If life force feels like a breeze when used to restore physical strength, then when forming buff spells, it is like flowing water that runs with blood in the human body, and when it causes wounds to heal and flesh to grow, it is like a raging flame. However, all of this is different from Kassena's state when she uses her life magic to attack in the ring, and if you have to describe it in words, it is like the "title" of the Star Feather Dragon among the dragon clan.

Bloom!

It's like the sun to the sun, the explosion to the flames, the ice to the flowing water, and the steel to the earth! The essence is still the same as the life spells of the druids and the earth priests, but in fact it is like a technique that contains different laws. The subtle difference was not the same as that of the scorching sun and the flow of ice, and not only did he fail every time he tried to force it. The reluctance to repeat it also caused a slight abnormality in his body, and according to His Excellency Enriel, such a pointless attempt was actually very dangerous.

Even if the talent bloodline is extraordinary, as long as the flesh and blood are still retained, then the adaptability to magic has its own limit. And this limit is especially evident when magic manifests, that is, when magic acts on matter. The simplest example is that long-term use of fire magic in large quantities will still cause a physical burden to Garuda, who is still in the middle and lower ranks, and the best way to eliminate this "side effect" is to obtain full cultivation while his fire magic is calming down.

Although life magic is naturally much milder and harmless than fire magic, excessive use can still cause a certain degree of change in the physical body. In fact, there are not many instances like this in the entire world, and the most common is the magic core formed by crystallization in the body of Warcraft. It is somewhat similar to the crystallized Sacred Tree seed that André carries with him. However, the "magic crystal" is the result of the continuous evolution of the demonic beast for thousands of years, and they usually have a round and smooth surface, so even if they are as strong as steel, they rarely cause physical damage to life itself in the body.

In fact, the same "organ" in the high-level demon race presents a similar but different form, with the continuous accumulation of magic power over the years, the final demon race whose strength reaches a certain level will form a similar "magic core" in the body when it advances. However, Andrei's "Demon Core" Abyss Heart was forced to stay in the Demon Realm before it materialized, which seems to be the result of the difference in laws between the two worlds, and in general it can be regarded as a mysterious and profound problem.

If the "crystallization" caused by the accumulation of magic in the body does not cause harm to life itself, then where does the physical burden caused by frequent activation of magic come from?

This is mainly due to the fact that the process of "crystallization" of magic in a calm state is very slow, which will make it appear mild and harmless, and eventually form an alienated organ similar to a magic core in the body. And when the magic power intensifies, this process will be accelerated exponentially, and if it is a mineral such as magic iron and pure gold, the magic is naturally a state that cannot be sought. But for the vast majority of life, this process is very dangerous.

The use of both hands to release and control magic can almost be regarded as a habit shared by intelligent beings belonging to the "primates", as if the difficulties encountered when casting spells will be multiplied without the use of the most flexible organs in the body, which should be regarded as a kind of subconscious mind contained in the habits of intelligent beings themselves or in the soul.

Frequently cast spells regardless of the source of mana, and each time active mana flows through the arm, the arm's demonic state will be deepened by one point. Imagine how much of an impact it would have on life itself if the hands were completely crystallized in an extreme state? There is no need to reach such an appalling level, and the crystallization of muscle fibers alone is enough to make the hands almost completely incapacitated.

Of course, no one really does that, and most people don't have the capacity to do that.

André, who had the Garlanord seed as a source of magic, was clearly not one of those majors. But André decided that only by repeated practice and trial could he truly touch the door of that extraordinary skill.

"Dragons can do it, why can't I!?" said the young child of the abyss, looking confident as he said this.

"It takes hundreds or even thousands of years for all dragons to complete this transformation from flesh and blood to demonic bodies, and Your Highness, you are trying to achieve this goal in a short period of time......" His Excellency Enril shook his head helplessly with a bitter smile.

Sometimes too much talent and wisdom can become a burden or even a shackle, and the Son of the Abyss is a typical example of this kind of heavenly pride in his opinion.

"Your Excellency, I am naturally clear of the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, but I don't have the luxury of expecting to reach the height of a dragon in a short period of time. In my opinion, it is enough to double or even 50% the benefits provided by the 'Gift of Life' beyond its original limits. ”

However, this is only reflected in the data as a few points of "attribute" differences, but it took the children of the abyss more than half a year to study...... So far, there have been no breakthroughs.
