On the opposing side, the werewolves looked unfriendly, exuding hostility. A re human, relying only on a bit of luck, what’s there to show off?
At this mont, the city subrged in the silent Nether River reflected golden light. In the gray fog enveloping the city, a colossal entity lood faintly, standing there. Chu Yi squinted. His Clock Eye was dim, but it still provided him with a clear view.
This is... a dragon! A bizarre Black Dragon!? No, it’s a tree!
Chu Yi was startled, a chill rising in his heart.
In the gray fog, massive, thick black vines coiled, imnse and boundless, resembling a terrifying giant tree that towered into the clouds. Thick and grotesque vines intertwined, looking like a Black Dragon. By visual estimation, it was about ten thousand feet high, lush and leafy, its shadow blanketing the sky and casting countless, previously unseen shadows.
Presently, on the black tree, a feature resembling a heavy sword seed to ignite. A mass of golden fla, like searing lava, slowly flowed out, cascading down into a small stream in mid-air and scattering an endless golden radiance. This scene was as if golden tree sap was flowing from the black tree.
A corner of the King’s Ga had been unveiled.
"What, so soon?!"
"The new Golden Tree has already opened; we can’t wait any longer."
"His Highness hasn’t arrived yet, so let us handle it."
William and two other Divine War Seeds exchanged a glance and imdiately gave orders to seize victory in this Divine War. As the three of them gazed at the bizarre, Black Dragon-like giant tree, a hint of deep greed flickered in their eyes.
On the opposing side, the werewolves also began to move, leading their team swiftly towards the giant tree. Along the way, they encountered pawns from other factions, as well as Divine War Seeds.
Chu Yi observed his surroundings. Everywhere lay dilapidated, decaying, and cursed ruins. Judging by the broad streets and the crisscrossed city layout, it was evident that this city, in ancient tis, had been a prosperous civilization. But for so unknown reason, changes occurred. The nation ceased to exist, and the entire city was dragged into the Nether River, buried beneath the Netherworld.
Wait, this...
Chu Yi glanced over and quickly noticed a recognizable pattern on a piece of ruin: a golden war axe held tightly by a king, symbolizing the city’s monarch.
This is... Grek’s Golden War Axe? Legend has it...
「After a long ti.」
When everyone finally gathered beneath the black tree, an ancient palace appeared. This grand, magnificent palace was where the black tree had taken root. Its thick, enormous vines entwined and writhed like living creatures, continuously growing taller and exuding an ominous aura. It was so vast that it always made people feel sothing was amiss, evoking an inexplicable sense of horror.
Chu Yi frowned. Convinced there was a trap ahead, he instinctively pulled the Dragon Maiden closer and positioned himself to protect the group.
"Go! As long as we take this palace, we’ll win this Divine War! The great Ancestor will always protect us!" William shouted, his voice tinged with an alluring quality. Countless pawns and retainers imdiately surged forward, each unleashing their powerful auras.
Given the unclear situation, no one started infighting; instead, they cautiously probed to see if it was dangerous.
Outside the palace, the ground was paved with stone slabs. The area was vast and silent, with no abnormalities. The first to advance passed through safely. This scene brought a flicker of joy to William and the Divine War Seeds from various factions. The rewards from the Divine War involved divine blessings and were particularly plentiful.
In the next mont, Chu Yi pulled the curious and sowhat foolish-looking Dragon Maiden, quickly retreating.
"Making a fuss over nothing," soone scoffed. Others, however, hesitated and retreated slightly.
Imdiately, as the first group approached the palace, the shadow cast by the giant black tree began to writhe chaotically. The entire tree trembled, its vines rubbing together and branches swaying. In the next mont, the ground cracked, and countless roots shot out like lightning. The first batch of cannon fodder was instantly blown into a mist of blood, which was then drawn into the palace.
And this was just the beginning.
From the black tree, countless fruits fell, trailing streaks of dark luster as they crashed towards the crowd. Each fruit was only the size of a fist, yet its impact created a giant pit, tearing the ground as if it were paper.
These fruits... they carry rules, William thought, his pupils shrinking. With his bat wings unfurled, he trailed a streak of blood-red light, rapidly withdrawing from the fruits’ impact zone.
Others, however, weren’t so lucky. Smashed by the fruits, their bodies were obliterated, scattering limbs everywhere. It was too brutal! Even the usually resilient werewolves were reduced to puddles of flesh under the fierce assault of these bizarre fruits.
"Ah, it hurts! It hurts so much!"
"My leg... Help! Soone save !"
"I can pay a handso reward! Save !"
"..."
Wails and screams mingled.
Most of the dead were retainers, re cannon fodder. Yet the chosen pawns still pressed on towards the palace; it was a chance to change their fate, to ascend in one leap.
BOOM!
The fallen fruits suddenly exploded with a trendous noise, unleashing a volley of black lightning that shot out in all directions. Many powerful experts were blown into bloody fragnts. Even those with strong physiques were knocked to the ground; the power was astonishing.
"What... what is this?" Hiding behind, Mu Yun, who was setting up the fairy clan’s Defense Rune, stared wide-eyed, shocked by the scene. Thousands of fruits fell, blasting through the air—what a spectacular, terrifying sight.
anwhile, she felt secretly fortunate. If Chu Yi hadn’t pulled her along, she would have suffered greatly. Although I have a Dragon Race physique and I’m not afraid at all, what if the chef accidentally gets hurt? Then what? I must protect him well! If I protect Chu Yi, I’ll have als to eat.
Chu Yi squinted. This monstrous tree guarding the palace was ford by rules, similar to the Flesh and Blood Willow Tree, yet different. The lightning exploding from the fruits consisted of tiny black spikes carrying rules, striking out like flashes of electricity.
CRACKLE...
Thunder rumbled continuously, its dense, frequent reports heralding the demise of another batch of cannon fodder. The power of this black lightning was horrifying, weaving a storm of death in front of the palace with enormous lethality!
Even with my Golden Body, I might get worn down and eventually pinned to the ground, Chu Yi thought. However, these are all great for trapping people! I should find a chance to take this entire tree. It would provide a steady stream of fruit bombs. I could not only trap people but also make money. Maybe I should switch careers and beco an arms dealer.
He glanced again at William and the others. These Divine War Seeds didn’t care about the safety of their pawns and retainers; they watched coldly, still recording various data.
Hmm, should I summon the Celestial Tribulation here and ascend to the Human King Body? Chu Yi shook his arms, cracking his knuckles, but temporarily suppressed the thought, feeling there weren’t enough people yet.
Seeing William and the others, it seed they were waiting for sothing.
He thought for a mont, then approached the Dragon Maiden and said seriously, "The next part is very dangerous. I have a big plan, and you must protect ."
Hearing this, and feeling that Chu Yi finally recognized her importance, Mu Yun patted her proud chest, her dark-golden dragon eyes flashing with seriousness. "Although you have many flaws," she said, "you showed kindness by giving a al. The Dragon Witch never treats her benefactors unjustly."
Besides, you’re the only one who dares to get close to ... partner, Mu Yun thought, but didn’t say the last word. As a bloodline inheritor of the Dragon of the End, she bore a life curse: wherever she stayed, she would eat them out of house and ho. Ultimately, she was branded a Witch.
"Thank you," Chu Yi said. He rarely saw this foolish Dragon Maiden show such a serious side, and he found it quite charming.
CRACK—
A crisp sound echoed from the giant black tree, reverberating in everyone’s ears. On a thick vine, a fine crack suddenly appeared, light sparkling from within.
Then, the cracking sounds beca incessant. KAKA KAKA KAKA... Myriad cracks raced to spread, quickly covering the vine like a spiderweb under the horrified, wary, and vigilant gazes of the crowd.
A terrifying, frigid aura gushed out from the cracks!
The forbidden sequence of seals was released!
