Eternal Thief

Chapter 1199: Ancient Eldoria Woodland



Far away from the Spirit Inferno Domain was the Ancient Eldoria Woodland, an ancient forest steeped in Qi, which was a haven for magic beasts and a forbidden zone for other races.

Its towering trees, draped in emerald moss and vibrant fungi, seemed to touch the heavens. Sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting dappled patterns on the forest floor, where strange, bioluminescent plants bloomed.

The air was thick with the scent of ancient wood and exotic herbs. The symphony of nature was ever-present, with the rustling of leaves, the chirping of magical birds, and the low growl of hidden creatures.

The appearance of Ancient Eldoria Woodland was a testament to the power of nature that permeated this wonderland. It was a place of wonder and mystery, and among the magic beasts, it was known as a sanctuary and a source of inspiration for those who sought to understand the true nature of natural laws.

Even the second-grade sect wanted a piece of this place, yet no one has ever been able to conquer it.

At this moment, a dark hooded figure stood before a massive, ancient oak tree deep in Ancient Eldoria Woodland. Its gnarled branches were adorned with strange, glowing symbols.

Furthermore, besides this hooded figure, it was a cute little girl, seemingly around the age of twelve, but her appearance was not human. She had bark-like skin, leafy green hair, and branches for limbs.

At this moment, the strange little girl loudly, in her chirpy, innocent voice, spoke in front of the mysterious oak tree, "Big sis Oakley, look who I brought here!"

At this moment, the branches of the runes on the oak tree suddenly glow brightly, and a beautiful being materializes in front of it the next moment.

It was a beautiful woman with flowing green hair and leaves adorning her crown. Her emerald skin was covered in intricate tattoos, representing the runes on the oak tree. Her eyes were completely white and shimmered with gentleness. She seemed to be surrounded by natural laws, giving an unfathomable yet friendly feeling, just like nature.

This woman flashed a gentle smile when she saw the little girl who was smiling with delight, but her eyes turned sharp and wary when she looked towards the hooded figure beside the little girl.

"It's been a while since we have had guests, not to mention the guest is a Fox." Oakley's words were neither warm nor servile as she spoke to the hooded figure. "Since little Birch brought you here, this means she had approached you herself. How should I help you?"

But before the hooded figure could reply, the little girl named Birch suddenly exclaimed, "No! Actually, this big sis found me on her own when I was observing her. She's very skilled, and I was even surprised. But she didn't do anything to me; in fact, she gave me many snacks. You have to help her!"

Oakley's expression changed slightly when she heard little Birch's unexpected words because she knew it was impossible to detect her kind until they willingly showed themselves.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Moreover, her kind only approached people with kind natures and strong auras of natural laws, and she didn't sense anything like that in this mysterious person except that she had the bestial aura of a magic beast race, which initially confused her. Still, now, things were starting to make sense.

Furthermore, only her kind could bring people to this place. This was a completely unexpected thing that hadn't happened in a very long time. But this also means that this 'fox' was not simple, and little Birch was still just a naïve child, so Oakley raised her guard instantly.

At this moment, the hooded figure finally spoke, "You don't need to be on guard, I just like this little girl, so I give her some gifts, it's not a big deal and I never force her to bring me here. She brought me here on her own when I asked her the direction of the Illustrative Feral Monastery. She told me only her big sis could help me, so here I am." Her voice was very pleasing to the ears, but there were hints of arrogance present in it.

Oakley looked deeply toward the hooded figure, wanting to see through the darkness within the hood, but she couldn't see anything except an endless void, which made her somewhat uneasy.

But since little Birch was looking at her with an expectant gaze and this person didn't do anything to Birch, she didn't bring herself to act against her. After all, she knew if this person was aware of their race, she could've captured Birch and then tried to sell her. Even King Sects would pay any price to get their hands on Birch.

Since this person could detect Birch, Oakley knew she had some mysterious abilities despite being a mere Ascension Soldier. Birch could easily take care of her if she had shone any malicious intention.

But even then, if she managed to escape the other and told them about their race's presence in this place and that she could detect them, she would instantly become an essential and well- guarded figure in power sects. Yet she didn't do any of it, so she didn't attack her.

"Do you want to join the Illustrative Feral Monastery?" Oakley questioned sternly.

The hooded figure nodded without hesitation, "Indeed. I've heard the Illustrative Feral Monastery is the strongest organization of magic beasts, and they only accept magic beasts in their ranks, so I naturally want to join them. But their whereabouts are unknown, and the only clue is in the Ancient Eldoria Woodland, and it seemed the rumors were not baseless."

Oakley thought momentarily before she finally replied, "You are indeed qualified to join Illustrative Feral Monastery despite your cultivation lacking a little-just your ability to detect little Birch enough.

"However, the Illustrative Feral Monastery is very strict when it comes to accepting new members, and despite my connection with them, you have to rely on your abilities to enter it. I can only give a recommendation token allowing you to take their entrance test, but this is as far as I can help you."

"It's enough as long as they won't turn me down. I can pass their test." The hooded figure replied without any hesitation while she was secretly pleasantly surprised by this unexpected

windfall.

She had never thought the cute tree girl she helped would bring her such an unexpected

fortune.

After all, she was just shooting in the dark when she came to search for the Illustrative Feral Monastery, which she had heard about from her leader. This Illustrative Feral Monastery fascinated her.

But she never expected it would go so smoothly. She felt very pleased with herself and thought about bragging in front of her colleagues and that arrogant leader of hers.

Oakley nodded. Since this was a small matter to her, she could even directly help her join the Illustrative Feral Monastery, but she didn't do it because she was still wary of this person. Nonetheless, she didn't want to send her away, especially with her ability to detect her kind, so she wanted to keep her close, and the Illustrative Feral Monastery was the best option. She flipped her hand, and a golden oak leaf with a rune symbol appeared. She handed that left to the hooded figure.

"This leaf will guide you where the Illustrative Feral Monastery is, and as long as you show it to the people of Illustrative Feral Monastery, they will allow you to take the entrance test."

"Thank you, tree lady," The hooded figure happily said before an interface appeared before

her.

After a short silence, she suddenly looked towards little Birch, who was very happy for her. Then she looked towards Oakley as her eyes behind the hood shone brightly.

For some reason, Oakley felt uncomfortable when she asked, "What is it?"

The hooded figure thought momentarily before she seriously asked, which left both Oakley

and little Birch confused.

"Are you two interested in becoming thieves?"
