Along with the sound of that ethereal voice, mournful laughter sounded out from all directions at almost the same time. The laughter was sharp, hoa.r.s.e, gloomy, candid … When they were mixed together, it made one"s scalp tingle when they heard it.Ning Wufeng released his Divine Sense and scanned in the direction of the voice.
He found an old face hidden in layers of tree branches. The bark was trembling with pain, and the big mouth was constantly drinking.
"Tree demon!"
He frowned. This was the first time he had seen this plant maturing. The vast forest was actually formed by a gigantic tree.
The forest was about the size of a dozen football fields. The criss-crossing branches were like a spider web, ready to shoot out and trap them at any time.
Just like how he was controlling Zhao Wuqing.
"You actually found me!"
Treant was slightly surprised. Its ethereal voice came from all directions.
The conditions for the trees to become refined were extremely difficult and rare, and they had gone through countless amounts of time. This tree demon was the existence of a Heaven Stage Desolate Beast!
Even if it was a tree demon that was not proficient in attack, a Heaven Ranked Huang Beast was still an extremely powerful existence!
"Little kid, you killed three of my tree puppets, so you will stay and compensate for it!" The tree demon chided in a deep tone.
It turned out that the three dire beasts from before were all treeman"s tree puppets. The reason why he was able to break through in the final stage was because of the tree demon"s help.
After Ning Wufeng killed the Black Fire Lion, it had already alarmed the tree demon. However, the tree demon was a little afraid that Ning Wufeng and Tu Feng would join hands, so he stayed on the side and endured.
However, once Tu Feng left, the tree demon immediately launched an attack. The thousand-year-old tree vines immediately wrapped around Zhao Wuqing, causing him to lose his ability to fight.
The branches that covered the sky crossed each other to prevent Ning Wu Feng from escaping. And it also restricted Ning Wufeng"s movement.
"Is that Black Fire Lion your tree puppet?"
Ning Wufeng frowned and asked in a low voice.
The surrounding trees were all branches of the tree demon, so it naturally heard everything clearly.
"That"s right, Little Black, he is my prized helper. However, you killed him, so you have to replace him and become my tree puppet!"
The tree demon said gloomily.
"Tree Puppet?"
"That"s right. Once you become my tree puppet, you can use my power. When that happens, this forest will be yours." If that black robed man were to come again, he would not be a match for you! "
The tree demon said with a bewitching voice.
"Your strength?" Ning Wufeng pretended not to believe it as he said, "You already saw those three tree puppets die in our hands, your strength is only mediocre."
"How dare you!"
The tree demon suddenly became furious and roared. The surrounding trees were rugged, and instantly countless branches grew out, pressing towards Ning Wufeng"s throat.
The World Exterminating Spear shot out, sweeping away all the tree branches. However, the tree branches continued to grow.
The World Extinguishing Spear continued to swing out.
However, Ning Wufeng also realized that every time he swung the branch, the new branch"s strength would become stronger and stronger. He frowned.
"Kid, you only have two choices. Either submit to me, or die!"
The tree demon roared in anger.
All of a sudden, the branch turned into a huge fist that flew towards Ning Wufeng. The fist was more than two meters high. The moment it landed, there was no doubt that it would be able to smash both him and Chuchu into meat paste.
Pure Yang Spear Art - Sunburst Style!
Ning Wufeng"s spear light suddenly turned berserk, and he threw out a spear attack. A sharp spear light shot out, instantly tearing the countless branches in front of him into pieces.
But the tree grew faster and faster. This cl.u.s.ter of tree branches had turned into an awe-inspiring fist that was blasted apart by his spear. However, in the next moment, an even larger tree branch fist came whistling through the air.
Wild fires never stopped, and spring winds blew again.
Ning Wufeng felt that the further he rushed, the stronger the resistance he felt from the tree branches became. His consumption of spiritual energy was also getting faster and faster.
Ah!
A loud sound of shock rang out. Ning Wufeng turned his head and saw a vine that was as thick as an arm shooting towards Chuchu. Silently, it wrapped around his waist.
She cut down her hand like a sharp knife. The spiritual power surged out and she broke the branch in an instant.
She still had a frightened look on her face.
"Be careful!"
Ning Wufeng"s eyes turned cold. Three more vines shot towards her. The tree vines reached for Chuchu like palms.
Startled, she thought she had escaped a calamity, and then she was all right. But the danger was approaching.
Heaven Shaking Finger!
In a moment of desperation, Ning Wufeng pointed his finger at the sky and struck. Wherever the finger power went, the rattan was minced in an instant.
The scattered wood shavings seemed to have a mind of their own as they struggled violently on the ground. When the spiritual force was completely dispersed, it turned into ashes and dissipated into the air.
Ning Wufeng used his floating steps and landed beside Chuchu, gently holding her in his arms.
The girl"s pretty face was still pale.
Even though it was a Nine Spiritual Pulse, it had never experienced a baptism of life or death. She couldn"t bring out her true strength at all.
However, Ning Wufeng couldn"t bear to see her in such a b.l.o.o.d.y and brutal situation.
"It"s okay, it"s okay." Ning Wufeng lightly patted her back as he spoke.
Above their heads, countless branches intertwined like countless poisonous snakes, ready to deal a fatal blow at any time.
At this moment, Zhao Wuqing was completely trapped by those branches. It was as if he was wrapped in a silkworm coc.o.o.n made from tree branches.
"Haha, boy, obediently surrender. Otherwise, you will all die without a burial ground! " Treeman laughed, and the whole forest rustled.
"I"m afraid you don"t have the ability!"
Ning Wufeng"s pupils shrank, a bright light suddenly burst out from behind him. The sword light split into four and instantly slashed towards Zhao Wuqing.
With a "kacha" sound, the branches that bound Zhao Wuqing fell to the ground.
With a loud bang, Zhao Wuqing, who was wrapped in a bundle of branches, fell to the ground. He struggled to get out of the branches, his face pale.
The tree branches had also pierced countless holes in his clothes, and blood was flowing out from them.
"d.a.m.n it!"
The tree demon roared in panic. He did not expect Ning Wufeng to save Zhao Wuqing while he was speaking.
After his rage, the myriad of tree branches that resembled tents instantly enveloped Zhao Wuqing like man-eating gra.s.ses.
"You want to rob me? No way!"
Ning Wufeng shouted angrily, and countless rays of light interweaved in his hands. Light swirled between the three of them, instantly enveloping them.
Bang! The branch caught the light and a ma.s.s of flame burst out. Tens of thousands of tree branches simultaneously collided with the light. With a loud boom, a large fire was ignited, and a small portion of the forest was set ablaze.
The fire grew stronger with the help of the natural wind.
"d.a.m.n it!"
The tree demon roared as the ground began to surge. Countless tree roots shot out from the ground, and water spills out of them.
Water splashed on the burning branches, and the fire quickly died down. However, many of the branches had already been burnt.
"d.a.m.n brat!"
Treant demons did not have a true transmogrification demon, so they could only borrow water. The roots beneath his surface were extremely complicated. The main root was already a few hundred meters deep.
Of course, the main root couldn"t leave the ground, but the roots would burst out of the ground and cause the underground water to gush out. However, when the fire went out, he also suffered some injuries.
"d.a.m.n it, d.a.m.n it!"
The Treant roared, and the whole forest shook with it. Suddenly, countless tree roots protruded from the ground like sharp swords.
"South Sea Light Flame Formation!"
Ning Wufeng shouted lightly. The intertwining light rays fell on the protruding roots, causing them to crackle and burn.
The tree demon let out a mournful roar. All the branches had sunk into the ground.
Nanming Flame Array, a Grade Five Spiritual Array that Ning Wufeng had specially exchanged for. Of the five elements, fire countered wood, but he had not yet stepped into the violet lake, so it was difficult for him to mobilize the powers of the five elements. He could only convert his spirit energy through formations.
This Spiritual Array cost him one high grade spirit stone and was exchanged with Linlang Pavilion. However, it had temporarily saved the lives of three people.
It was a pity that although the South Sea of Flames was able to restrain the Tree Demon, it was only limited in scope because it was exchanged with the Linlang Pavilion.
It protected the three of them, but it was difficult to burn the Treant"s main body.
Countless streaks of red light interweaved in front of the three. Treant didn"t dare to get any closer.
"Brat, you think that I can"t do anything to you just because of this?" The whole forest hummed and shook. The treeman opened and closed his mouth.
Ning Wufeng looked in the direction of his voice and said, "You can try whatever you want."
Under his control, the revolving light rays emitted a fiery light and countless branches hurriedly retreated.
"Humph, even if I can"t kill you, I can trap you!"
The tree demon roared and shook violently.
Ning Wufeng frowned slightly. He was protected by the South Sea of Fire. The tree demons couldn"t do anything to them, but they couldn"t do anything to the tree demons either.
To be trapped here without food is to die. Similarly, if the secret plane was closed after seven days, then even if they managed to escape, they would still be unable to return to the Jiang Ning manor.
"Haha," the tree demon laughed and said coldly, "Now you know how powerful I am. Obediently submit to me. I can give you great power. "
"You should have seen the three dire beasts earlier right?" I can give them great power. It can also help you! "
The entire forest shook with the Treant"s loud laughter.
If one became a tree puppet, they would borrow the strength of the tree demon and possess the strength of a Violet Lake Stage. However, this fellow was extremely crafty. After becoming a tree puppet, it was likely that he would be at its mercy.
However, no matter what Treant said, Ning Wufeng and the other two turned a deaf ear. The tree demon was tired, so it went into a stalemate with them.
The two sides had been in a deadlock for quite some time. Unknowingly, a day had pa.s.sed.
Chirp...
From afar, a loud screech could be heard as the rolling black clouds whizzed past. Dark clouds began to spread out from the distant mountains. It was an imposing and terrifying scene!
"It"s the Carving King!" Zhao Wuqing shouted.
At this moment, there was a sudden crackling sound, and a pale bolt of lightning fell from the sky. It instantly struck the treeman"s dense forest.
Countless tree branches were instantly shattered by the lightning.
"d.a.m.n it!" "Who dares to provoke that fellow!"
Ning Wufeng could clearly feel the treeman"s fear, and the dark clouds that surrounded them also gave them a strong sense of oppression.
This aura was extremely powerful!
He was unrivalled in power!
