Ambrosial Arbor

* Activated
* Deactivated

The **Ambrosial Arbor** is an ancient artifact, the plaguemark that was planted on the Xianzhou Luofu by Yaoshi, the Aeon of Abundance. It has the power to shape life and subdue death at will. The ancestors of the Luofu people consumed the fruits of the Ambrosial Arbor and gained immortality, though this soon became a curse rather than a blessing. Those who gained immortality were inflicted with Mara, went insane, and turned into beasts. Later, the Luofu came under the protection of the Aeon Lan, who shattered the tree, leaving it as a stump.

## History

During the Era of Bloodshed, the Xianzhou Alliance encountered a Dyson tree, also the mortal enemy of the Primeval Imperium — Muldrasil, homeland of the Wingweavers, feeding off nearby stars, and a war broke out as a result. Fatigued from the Civil War, the aurumaton rebellion, and their emigration plan, all the prisoners in cryo-hibernation were released to counter the invasion — including the Reignbow who made a deal with the Flint Emperor, allowing the latter to possess their physical body, in exchange for the power of the Heliobi. Inspired by the Reignbow's sacrifice, the Xianzhou residents make the same deal, forming suicide squads and marching alongside the Heliobi. During the battle, the Reignbow Arbiter shot their Sky-Shattering Lux Arrow from the bow of the Xianzhou Yaoqing, using their famed bow "Xuanyuan", causing great casualties among even the furthest ships, the Xuling and Fanghu. The arrow smashed into the Ambrosial Arbor, penetrating Muldrasil, and severing the connection between the Luofu and Muldrasil.

In the Year 4800 Star Calendar, the five lineages of the Vidyadhara made an alliance on the Yuque, putting their sacred vow into writing. "This oath shall remain unbroken, standing stronger than even earth and steel." Imbibitor Lunae was bound to watch over the Ambrosial Arbor. To accomplish this, Imbibitor Lunae Yubie, high elder of the Luofu at the time, made the decision to flood Scalegorge Waterscape with the waters of the ancient sea in order to help the Luofu seal the Ambrosial Arbor. Starskiff seeds were developed from the Ambrosial Arbor.

In the Year 7379 Star Calendar, Imbibitor Lunae Dan Feng would go on to commit a great crime and sin by invoking the Transmutation Arcanum, embracing immorality and breaking the ban, thieving immortality and inciting riot. Dan Feng made changes to the Transmutation Arcanum; allowing other species to be incorporated into the Vidyadhara, giving the Vidyadhara the possibility of replenishing their population and created a draconic abomination that wreaked great destruction on Scalegorge Waterscape, which the remaining members of the Quintet were forced to put down, resulting in damage to the seals. The creation of Bailu, her instatement as Dan Feng's successor as High Elder, and the dragon heart going missing were also a result of this incident. The Cloud Knights joined forces with the Vidyadhara Preceptors to assault him, Dan Feng was captured and his punishment was carried out; he went through hatching rebirth and his subsequent incarnation was held in the Shackling Prison for a period of time before being exiled from the Luofu, leaving the Ambrosial Arbor unguarded for over 700 years.

Sometime around the Year 8100 Star Calendar, amidst the Stellaron Crisis, the Ambrosial Arbor was revived using the power of a Stellaron that was smuggled aboard the Luofu. The events were masterminded by Lord Ravager Phantylia who intended to dismantle the Xianzhou from within, and used the power of the Arbor to create a new body for herself. General Jing Yuan and the Astral Express Crew headed into Scalegorge Waterscape to confront Phantylia after Dan Heng, Dan Feng's reincarnation, undid the already weakened seals in Dragon Palace. At the roots of the Arbor, they fought a tough battle, but eventually defeated the Lord Ravager. Sometime afterward, Dan Heng would meet with High Elder Bailu at Dragonvista Rainhall in order to help repair the seals to the roots of the Ambrosial Arbor in the Lunarescent Depths, where they discover that Bailu had inherited Dan Feng's healing and restorative abilities while Dan Heng did not.
