My Apocalypse Territory-Chapter 966 - 788: You Third-Tier Noob! (Super - )
Entrance of the Wood Spirit Tribe, War Giant Tree forest.
Trees towering hundreds of meters high, with lush branches and leaves, were numerous and meticulously cultivated demon plant war trees by the Wood Spirit Clan.
In the legends of tribes such as the Gnolls, it was said that the Wood Spirit Clan could command demon plants, granting them access to many dangerous locations on the continent.
In reality, that couldn’t possibly be so exaggerated.
Even enslavement had to follow fundamental laws; it’s impossible for a Transcendent Tier to enslave a Transcendent Second Tier demon plant.
However, the Wood Spirit Clan’s affinity for wood series granted them a natural suppression over demon plants, allowing them to thrive more easily than other alien races on this Demon Plant Continent.
Compared to commanding those uncontrollable demon plants, the Wood Spirit Clan preferred nurturing demon plants that depended on them.
War Giant Trees are one such species.
In the entrance forest, those towering trees above three hundred meters were all demon plant War Giant Trees.
Each giant tree awakened, its branches and leaves danced wildly, and every tree was at least comparable to a senior transcendent. Over the countless years, there were occasionally alien races and mutant beasts that intruded into this land, but they were all easily torn to shreds by these war trees.
Yet today,
Boom!
Trees snapped and collapsed, and the swirling dust driven by the shockwave covered the entire forest, with the rumbling echoing in circles through the haze.
After a while,
The dust gradually thinned, and the bright sunlight bathed down. Upon closer inspection, it was not the light piercing through clouds but the dense leaves that blocked the light had turned to powder in the blast, and one tree after another fell, creating a ravaged and barren landscape.
Among them, those War Ancient Trees that differed from ordinary trees lay twisted and tilted, with heavy trunks split into alarming cracks, and their branches bare, as if all hair had been plucked clean.
Wood Spirit Clan members rushed from various locations to offer aid, driving even more demon plants, but whether War Ancient Trees or Vine Dragons, almost none could withstand even a single punch from Li Erniu. If any did, Li Erniu simply delivered a second punch.
The Wood Spirit Clan fared even worse, with limited combat talent, they could only use the massive bodies of war trees to block the shockwaves, trembling in fear.
At the center of the battlefield,
The current Wood Spirit Empress waved an emerald green scepter, scattering radiant lights that descended, causing two ancient War Giant Trees to grow frantically, their power surging to Second Tier Peak, their branches lengthening and extending like whips to strike at Li Erniu.
But they were still shattered by a single punch.
Li Erniu didn’t deliver a killing blow, merely engaging in a friendly and harmonious physical persuasion.
The Wood Spirit Empress and several elders looked gray-faced under Li Erniu’s oppressive aura, exchanged glances, and finally, the Wood Spirit Empress stepped forward slowly...
"Worthless!"
"You are the worst generation of Wood Spirit Clan I have ever seen!"
"My Wood Spirit Tribe is the true sovereign of the world!"
The loud voice echoed through the entire forest of ancient trees, lingering for a long time.
Many Wood Spirit Clan members suddenly changed color, turning their heads to look back.
A Wood Spirit Clan member just like them, with algae-green hair, walked forward step by step through the void.
What was different was the leaf mark on his forehead.
This kind of mark was only possessed by previous Wood Spirit Emperors.
Several Transcendent Second Tier elders glanced at the Wood Spirit Empress, then at the Wood Spirit Emperor.
An elder with a pale face furrowed his brows in thought, then suddenly realized, "It’s... It’s the Thirteenth Wood Spirit Emperor!"
The calculation of this began from the Great Calamity of heaven and earth.
Records before the calamity were extremely sparse, and many were lost during several internal disturbances of the Wood Spirit Clan. Up to now, the Wood Spirit Empress and several elders knew very little about the world before the calamity.
This Thirteenth Wood Spirit Emperor must have been a monarch from tens of thousands of years after the calamity!
"Old... Ancestor."
Several elders spoke with involuntary respect, being both awed by his status and his aura.
Compared to this current Wood Spirit Empress, the aura emanating from the Wood Spirit Emperor was even more terrifying.
Lead-gray clouds gathered, once again blocking the sunlight.
"Hmph, pathetic, you’ve truly regressed!"
With a mere perception, the Wood Spirit Emperor knew the current state of the Wood Spirit Tribe, and was deeply disappointed; they were undoubtedly the worst generation!
Several elders of the Wood Spirit Clan had grievances they couldn’t voice.
In fact, after the Great Calamity, the source tide receded, and the concentration of Source Qi had been declining.
Don’t be fooled by the current revival of Source Qi; a few years ago, the tide had receded to its lowest point, and at that time, only the Empress broke through to Transcendent Second Tier. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Yet the elders neither dared to speak nor explain.
Seeing the oppressive aura, far stronger than the Empress, of the Ancestor, they felt a glimmer of hope rise in their hearts—if given a choice, who would willingly submit to others?
The Wood Spirit Emperor finally turned his gaze towards Li Erniu.
"So, you are the prodigy born from the revival of Source Qi within the Human Race, not bad."
He was able to sense Li Erniu’s life aura, extremely young.
Back then, due to some unknown reason, the Great Calamity of heaven and earth erupted, and the Wood Spirit Clan lost over ninety percent of their power, causing many small tribes to perish as a result.
But the Wood Spirit Emperor knew, it was the Human Race that suffered the heaviest losses.
In fact, the calamity seemed aimed directly at the Human Race, with the Wood Spirit Clan innocently suffering its impact!
He had initially thought the Human Race had already become extinct; unexpectedly, on the first day of his rebirth, he encountered the Human Race.
’Indeed, considering the Human Race’s reproductive ability, their survival until now is within reason.’
Yet,
The revival of Source Qi is an opportunity for all beings on the Origin Star.
Just by observing the current situation of the Wood Spirit Clan, one would know that the heavily afflicted Human Race due to the calamity could not have fared well.
The individual before him might just be the prodigy leading the Human Race to rise in adversity.
