Chapter 457 Flowers and Fruits
The chorus continues, and Dui, now possessing the power over time, elevates his use of time to an almost instinctive level.
Amplified by the power of the Vera's singing, his power broke through the limits of the Maia and entered a higher level of strength.
In this situation, the time rewinding of the Golden Tree Laurelin suddenly accelerated, and even spread to the Silver Tree Telperion, causing both sacred trees to undergo time rewinding together.
—Five thousand years, six thousand years, seven thousand years—ten thousand years pass in the blink of an eye.
The withered twin sacred trees, which had been completely unchanged and devoid of life, were restored to life at a speed visible to the naked eye as time rewound. The dull and dry trunks became full of vitality, and the bare branches sprouted golden-green and silver-green leaves.
The fatal wound that Morgoth had pierced with his spear healed instantly, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Then the Two Trees emitted an incomparably dazzling golden and silver light, far more brilliant and dazzling than the sun and moon, instantly illuminating the entire Valinor and even spreading to the whole of Arda.
The humans living far away on the Central Continent looked in astonishment and awe at the place in the west filled with sacred light, where the entire sky was dyed with golden and silver radiance, making the night brighter than the day.
Such a celestial phenomenon shocked and puzzled all races on the Central Continent, who regarded it as a divine miracle.
Meanwhile, the elves in Valinor were overjoyed, especially those who had witnessed the glory of the Twin Trees, who wept with happiness.
In an instant, the elves of Swan Harbor, the elves of Torresia, and the Noldor of Tyrian City all flocked westward to prepare for their pilgrimage.
As for the Vanya elves in the city of Velma, which was already very close to the Twin Sacred Trees, they were overjoyed. All the bells and chimes in the city rang in unison to celebrate the rebirth of the Twin Sacred Trees.
Meanwhile, on the side of the Twin Trees, Dui and the Vera were engulfed by the radiance of the Twin Trees, making them almost invisible.
The radiance of the Twin Trees is not as scorching and dazzling as the sun. Even though the surroundings are enveloped in light, turning into a world of gold and silver light, one can still open their eyes and see the Twin Trees.
Bathed in the light of the two sacred trees, Dui felt incredibly warm and comfortable, as if his body had been purified, becoming purer and more refined.
The Vera stopped singing and looked at the resurrected Twin Trees before them, all of them smiling.
Dui also regained consciousness from his daze. He felt as if he had just had a dream. In his hazy state, he seemed to remember entering the River of Time halfway through his journey back to the Twin Trees and continuing downstream, where he even saw his future self.
Then, I felt an almost effortless control over the power of time, as if the entire river of time had merged with me, becoming one with me, without any sense of stagnation.
Dui was instantly excited and somewhat incredulous. Had he not just been dreaming? Had he really reached the end of time and obtained complete control over time?
But just as he was getting excited, the power he possessed, which belonged to the Vera level, rapidly declined as Vera's song dissipated, and he reverted to the strength of the Maya level.
This feeling made Dui reluctant to leave, after all, that powerful, seemingly omnipotent feeling was truly unforgettable.
However, that power was simply the result of the Vera joining forces and using their songs to infinitely amplify his power to the Vera level.
It was a castle in the air to begin with, and now that it has lost its support, it has been exposed for what it truly is.
However, Dui was only reluctant for a few seconds before becoming excited and happy again.
Although his strength returned to normal, he took a shortcut by using the power of the Valar, gaining the power of time ahead of time and saving himself countless years of effort in the future.
Logically, Dui should have been able to obtain the complete Time Authority only when his strength reached the Vera level.
But now Dui is doing something out of the ordinary, using the power of the Vera to gain the authority of time ahead of schedule.
It's like solving a very complex math problem, but Dui now has the answer in advance. All he needs to do now is deduce the process and then he can prove it accurately.
This means that Dui has now obtained the entry ticket to the Vera level. All he needs to do next is to continue accumulating power to break through the power shackles and successfully advance to the Vera level.
It can be said that Dui has gained a great deal this time.
But Dui's surprise today didn't stop there. The Twin Trees themselves have no intelligence, but like ordinary plants such as the Mimosa pudica, they have their own defense mechanisms and will instinctively react to the outside world.
The Twin Trees, created by the plant goddess Yavanna with her creation song and nourished by the tears of the compassionate goddess Nina, are even more divine and extraordinary.
The two sacred trees seemed to know that Dui had saved them, and instinctively fed back to him.
The light it emitted seemed to have a consciousness, flowing like light and converging into Dui's body.
The radiance of the golden tree, Laurelin, nourished and strengthened Dui's essence.
The silver light emanating from the Silver Tree Telperion nourished Dui's soul and enhanced his spiritual power.
Dui seemed to become a source of light, his body and soul emitting a soft and holy glow.
Before Dui could finish celebrating, the Twin Trees stirred again. To the astonishment of Vera, Dui, and the others, the Twin Trees suddenly dimmed, as if their light had been exhausted.
But soon magic surged on the two gold and silver trees, and the gold tree quickly produced a golden fruit, while the silver tree blossomed with a silvery-white flower.
The fruits and flowers grew larger and larger, radiating a dazzling light, as if the sun and moon were hanging on the tree.
Finally, when the fruit ripened, the enormous fruit and flowers fell down and floated in front of Dui.
"This—!" Dui was caught off guard and somewhat taken aback, unsure whether to accept the offer.
He couldn't help but look at the other Villars around him.
"Take it, Duir, you resurrected the Twin Trees, this is what you deserve!" Varda said happily.
The plant goddess Yavana smiled and nodded, "This is a token of gratitude from Laurellin and Telperian. Please accept it."
Finally, it was Manwe, the head of the Villa, who spoke up, and with no objection from the other Villa, that this fruit and this flower were thus placed in Dui's possession.
Dui was both surprised and delighted. These were sacred fruits and flowers that could transform into the sun and the moon, and now they were his!
Dui named them the Fruit of the Sun and the Flower of the Moon.
Unlike its mother tree, Laurelin, the Sun Fruit is extremely hot, radiating the light and heat of the sun, and Dui dares not touch it.
Thanks to the craftsman god Aoli, who gave him a treasure chest, he was able to put the Fruit of the Sun inside.
Otherwise, even the hardest steel would melt and burn through when it comes into contact with the scorching fruit of the sun.
The Twin Trees have now been resurrected, and the mission of the group can be considered a complete success.
Next, all that is needed is for the plant goddess Yavana to take care of the two sacred trees and to continuously water them with the tears of the compassionate goddess Nina, so that they will bear a sun fruit and a moon flower every thousand years.
Then, after the stars, Varda could use fruits and flowers as the core to create the sun and moon, to decorate more empty spaces in the universe and form even larger galaxies.
The Vera were overjoyed at accomplishing such a momentous task and invited Dui to join them in the resurrection celebration of the Two Sacred Trees in the city of Velma.
