Chapter 230 Starlight Tree Spirit

‘Ding,

Upgrade requirements for the Seal Swallowing Ability

1) Swallow Level 7 Seals: (11 / 100). Or

2) Swallow Level 6 Seals: (1350 / 10000). Or

3) Swallow Level 5 Seals: (0 / 1000000).

Additional requirement:

1) The host’s soul needs to heal his soul for the upgrade completely.

All the upgrade requirements remained the same; however, the additional requirement made him frown.

‘It looks like I must stop after fulfilling the normal requirements.’

The only way for him to heal his soul was to find a healing-type hero who could heal not only the physical injuries but even soul-type injuries.

Time continued to pass as Leo started devouring the level 7 and level 6 seals from the bodies of everyone that entered the ‘Starlight Ancestral Hall’.

‘Ding,

The host has met the regular requirements. Please complete the additional requirement.

‘I think it’s time to leave.’

Leo thought it was better not to swallow the enslavement seals for now because he needed them to upgrade his [Seal Swallowing Ability].

Since all the humans in this territory would visit the Starlight Ancestral Hall twice a day, Leo was not worried that he would miss the opportunity to swallow the enslavement seals from their bodies easily.

Therefore, he informed the hall keepers that he would return soon before exiting the Ancestral Hall.

Even though the hall keepers didn’t want Leo to leave, they didn’t dare to stop their saviour because they were scared that Leo would not save the remaining humans in their tribe.

…..

‘Where should I find a Soul Healer?’

While leaving the human territory by hiding inside his secret dimensional space, Leo thought about the Soul Healer who could heal his injury.

‘According to the hall keepers, no one with a soul-type healing talent exists. So, I have to either find someone from the three bestial races, kill them, swallow their talent, or request them.’

At a time like this, his [Talent Swallowing Abiltiy] becomes more useful than the [Absolute Devour].

As long as he kills some native residents of this world with a soul-type healing talent, Leo could extract it and swallow it.

However, the problem was he had to find someone with the soul-type healing talent.

‘Wait a second. I think I don’t have to waste my time in….’

‘Kacha’

Just as Leo thought of some solution to his problem, his secret dimensional space cracked, and a shining green-coloured vine pierced through the spatial cracks and wrapped around him.

‘Kacha’

Before Le could realize what was happening, the shining vine pulled him out of his secret dimension space.

‘Ding,

The host’s secret dimensional space has been shattered.

‘Ding,

The host can’t use the secret dimensional space for the next 24 hours as it will be under maintenance.

Leo got the system notifications but focused on a middle-aged couple. The man was forming some finger seals, making Leo anxious.

‘Damn it….I need to escape.’

Without thinking much, Leo decided to escape from the human territory.

‘Ding,

The Starlight Tree Spirit has cast its skill [Nulify]. But unfortunately, the host can’t use any talents or skills for a minute.

‘What the…?’

Leo was shocked by the sudden system notification that made him even more anxious.

‘Is that the Starlight Tree Spirit?’

Following the vine hanging him upside down, Leo saw a small tree with two hand-like tiny branches and leg-like roots and a branch head with two big eyes and a mouth.

‘Calm down. I don’t think they are planning to kill me.’

It was not his first time falling into dangerous situations. So, Leo tried to calm himself first before looking at the middle-aged man whose speed at forming finger seals was slowing down.

‘Human, please don’t resist; otherwise, they will kill you.’

Suddenly, Leo heard a monotonous voice in his head.

‘Who?’

Leo unconsciously looked at the small moving tree and frowned.

‘I am the Starlight Tree Spirit. You are a saviour sent by Aurora, right?’

‘What? How did you know?’

Leo was shocked at the tree spirit’s words.

‘Aurora asked me to help you, so don’t move and let them temporarily seal your battle prowess.’

The tree spirit’s voice resounded in Leo’s head.

‘This girl…she hid things from me.’

Leo frowned; however, other than following with the tree spirit’s words, there was nothing much he could do now.

He wanted to summon his weapons Arcane Silver and the War God’s battle axe; however, he knew the middle-aged couple was supreme-ranked heroes.

‘I can’t win against them even if I use my full battle prowess, much less when they are sealed.’

With that thought in mind, Leo looked to stop struggling and let the middle-aged man seal his battle prowess.

‘Ding,

The host’s battle prowess is sealed by a level 8 Strength Suppressing Seal.

‘Ding,

Until the seal is removed, the host can’t use any of his talents or skills, and even his strength will be that of a rank 1 hero.

‘Level 8 seal? I can swallow it as long as I heal my soul.’

Looking at the system notifications, Leo silently thought to himself.

Currently, his [Seal Swallowing Abilty] has met all the regular upgrade requirements; however, the additional requirement needed him to heal his soul.

‘I wonder whether my system abilities are sealed?’

Since there was nothing for him to do, Leo decided to test it by activating the additional effect of the [Seal Swallowing Abiltiy].

[Level 9 soul- suppressing slave seal]

[Level 9 soul- suppressing slave seal]

In the next second, lines popped up above the middle-aged couple’s heads, informing the levels of their enslavement seals.

‘It looks like they belong to the upper echelon of the tribe.’

Only the upper echelon of the tribe got the level 9 slave seals.

“I think ‘Master’ will be happy to have a new member join the family.”

After the middle-aged man finished sealing Leo’s battle prowess, he informed his wife with an emotionless tone.

“Yes.”

The middle-aged woman nodded before looking at the small tree spirit and ordered, “Little starlight, take him to the underground prison and throw him with the other prisoners.”

“Yes, master.”

As soon as the tree spirit received the middle-aged woman’s orders, it hurriedly left that place with Leo.
