From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 385 - 271: Ancient Tree in Danger, The Origin of the Life Tree Vine_2

Chapter 385: Chapter 271: Ancient Tree in Danger, The Origin of the Life Tree Vine_2

Moreover, summoning wouldn’t result in a true impasse, even if it meant being transported to a prison, there would certainly be an opportunity to escape.

But the forest elder in front of them, according to Su Muyu’s energy sensing, was beyond Level 42, and there was no ceiling to his power.

The entire forest heeded his call, and if he truly decided to act, then that would be an impasse.

Just now, Black Field had already offended him to such an extent, and yet he had not struck him down.

The three of them had not offended him, so they shouldn’t be treated maliciously.

The more silent Seren was, the more Lu Heng felt something was amiss.

Lu Heng once again pressed, "Why choose only her?"

Seren sighed and answered, "Because she carries the essence of the ancient tree on her, your humans have stolen the essence of the ancient tree."

Hearing this, Lu Heng’s heart skipped a beat, his fingers twitched as if wanting to draw his sword, but in the end, he forcefully restrained himself.

In that instant.

Lu Heng thought of the reason he had chosen Su Muyu to enter the Ancient Tree Space—because she held the Source Material of the Life Tree Vine on her.

At first, he hadn’t considered this.

Now, hearing Seren’s words, he finally understood what was going on.

The Source Material of the Life Tree Vine had come from the Creator Organization, and at first, he hadn’t delved into the origin of this source material, but now he knew.

This source material had actually been stolen by the Creator Organization from the Knowledge Ancient Tree, and after many turns, it had ended up with Su Muyu.

Su Muyu had been summoned because of this, to this forest, and was sent into the Ancient Tree Space by Seren.

If this was the case, Su Muyu might be in danger.

Lu Heng quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the Chongming Bird and called out, "Muyu!"

No response came, the Chongming Bird did not react.

In this situation, there was only one possibility—the Ancient Tree Space had severed the connection between the summoning and the master.

The connection between summoning and master could not extend indefinitely and was subject to rules and limitations.

For example, if the distance was too great, the summoning would lose control.

Or if one entered a special space, the connection would be severed due to the spatial isolation.

Now that the Chongming Bird had no reaction, it indicated that Su Muyu had entered an Ancient Tree Space that cut off her connection with the Chongming Bird.

Lu Heng immediately became anxious, leaped up, and rushed out into the forest passage, searching for the gate of the ancient tree from before.

However, after rushing into the forest passage, Lu Heng discovered he couldn’t find that door to the ancient tree anymore.

The forest was like a labyrinth, no matter how he recklessly charged and shuttled between the towering trees, he could not find the path he remembered.

Lin Zeyu followed behind, yelling, "Where are you going? Wait for me!"

Lu Heng was moving too quickly, Lin Zeyu had not followed far before losing him, and he, too, was lost.

...

Moments later, Lu Heng ran back through the forest, approached Seren with a sword in hand, and said in a heavy voice,

"If you are joking, this joke isn’t funny at all. If you really intend to harm her, I’ll have no choice but to take action."

Seren sat there calmly, gesturing with his hand, "Why must you be so impulsive, young man? Sit down and wait awhile."

Lu Heng refused to sit and demanded, "Tell me, where is she now?"

Seren sighed and said, "She’s in the Ancient Tree Space."

Lu Heng continued to demand, "What are you going to do to her?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Seren maintained his calm, unperturbed expression and replied, "At most, take back the Life Tree Vine. It will not harm her life; just wait."

Lu Heng took a deep breath, his mind rapidly pondering.

Up to this point, the Elf Elder had not shown any clear malice.

If he was only going to take back Su Muyu’s Source Material of the Life Tree Vine, even though they would lose the source material, her life would at least not be in danger.

Now the only worry was, could the Elder’s anger from the Creator Organization stealing the Life Tree Vine extend to the three of them?

Should he risk subduing the Elder first?

If he could subdue him, that would at least ensure an invincible position.

A fierce glint appeared in Lu Heng’s eyes, and his figure suddenly vanished from the spot, employing Void Flash to appear behind Seren, and his hand swung his sword toward the elder’s neck.

Seren remained still from beginning to end, sitting quietly.

Lu Heng’s sword halted three millimeters from Seren’s neck as he demanded in a deep voice, "Why don’t you fight back?"

Seren chuckled and responded, "You’re taking advantage of this old man’s slow reaction. I know you don’t really want to fight. I’ll stay here and wait with you, and after your companion comes out, you can decide what to do."

Lu Heng pondered for a moment, sheathed the Aurora Blade, walked back, and sat down in front of him, thinking about what situation Su Muyu might encounter.

This was the second time, the second summoning, that was meant to clean up a mess for some group.

The last summoning had taken them into the Black Iron Dwarf world, resulting in the Lion Heart Empire stealing the Black Iron Dwarves’ Quenching Furnace.

This time, they were summoned into Quel’dorei, where the Creator Organization had stolen the Source Material of the Knowledge Ancient Tree.

The difference was, this time Su Muyu had brought back the ancient tree’s stolen Source Material.

Thinking about these things, Lu Heng had a flash of insight and asked, "So our being summoned here wasn’t an accident, but was guided by you?"

Seren gently closed his eyes and replied, "Yes, the Knowledge Ancient Tree prophesied that someone would bring back the Life Tree Vine. I used magic to guide them here, not expecting so many would come."

Lu Heng slowly calmed down and continued to ask, "You didn’t act at first because you were observing us?"

Seren once again showed a fascinated smile and replied, "Your thinking is quite clear once you’ve calmed down. The entire forest is my eyes; I was indeed observing you."
