Chapter 2329 Determination

Meanwhile, in several other locations, the Leaf tribe initially underestimated the Wood tribe’s determination to fight to the death.

After the initial skirmish, they quickly realized they couldn’t withstand the enemy’s fierce assault and began to retreat towards their habitat.

Senzo had to personally confront Tam Sangga, the Great Elder of the Wood tribe.

“Tam Sangga, do you have so much free time to visit me?” Senzo remarked.

“Humph!”

Tam Sangga was so enraged he could tear Senzo apart. He had no interest in exchanging pleasantries and coldly declared, “Senzo, spare me your hypocritical words. Today, I will make you accompany us in death!”

Senzo furrowed his brow, wondering what had gotten into Tam Sangga.

No more habitat? Not even their own sacred tree? Were they willing to exchange one life for another with the Leaf tribe?

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!”

Under Tam Sangga’s control, a massive wooden spike slowly rose from the ground, aimed directly at a barrier enveloping the perimeter of the Leaf tribe’s habitat.

“Boom!!”

The wooden spike collided with the barrier, shattering it into pieces. The entire barrier violently shook and then exploded with a resounding boom, plunging into a state of energy depletion and reboot.

Senzo’s eyes widened in astonishment as he watched, his gaze fixed on the ring in Tam Sangga’s hand.

The ring passed down through generations among the tree spirit tribe!

Was the entire Wood tribe going mad along with Tam Sangga?

The power of an inherited artifact should be used sparingly, but today, he’s squandering it so recklessly.

At some point, Fang Heng had already hidden in the nearby shadows, quietly observing.

He also took notice of the ring in Tam Sangga’s hand.

“It looks like a very powerful thing.”

Fang Heng muttered to himself, feeling a little lucky.

Luckily, Fang Heng hadn’t encountered Tam Sangga when he infiltrated the Wood tribe’s camp earlier. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to target the sacred tree sapling.

In the central camp of the Leaf tribe, under the blessing of the sacred tree sapling, a green light once again shimmered. Empowered by the sacred tree’s strength, the guards of the Leaf tribe significantly enhanced their abilities, launching long-range attacks against the frontline tree people summoned by the Wood tribe.

The moment had come!

Seeing the outer barrier of the Leaf tribe breached, Fang Heng wasted no time. He entered a secondary space projection and swiftly infiltrated into the heart of the Leaf tribe’s habitat.

Since the Leaf tribe was unwilling to deliver what they had promised, Fang Heng decided to take matters into his own hands!

The Leaf tribe was fully engaged in repelling the invaders, simultaneously urging the sacred tree to rapidly absorb the branch energy from the Wood tribe’s sapling. Amidst the chaos, no one noticed Fang Heng’s movements.

Quickly, Fang Heng followed the familiar route, effortlessly navigating into the underground domain of the Leaf tribe’s habitat, heading straight for the cultivation area of the sacred tree.

Inside the cultivation area, Elder Yuri was focused on nurturing the sacred tree sapling, absorbing the essence of the sacred tree’s elite power.

“Intruder!”

Yuri sensed a spatial fluctuation nearby and immediately turned to look in that direction.

Fang Heng walked out of the spatial projection.

When he saw that it was Fang Heng, his heart sank.

Fang Heng!

This kid was too difficult to deal with. He would rather encounter a few Wood tribe invaders than face Fang Heng.

“Elder Yuri.”

Fang Heng greeted casually, his expression nonchalant, as he glanced around the Great Hall at the other guards of the Leaf tribe.

“It seems the situation outside isn’t too good,” he remarked casually.

Inside the Great Hall, besides Elder Yuri, there were the newly promoted elders Dexi and Renzo, whom he had encountered previously.

The remaining dozen or so Leaf tribe members were assisting in maintaining the magic array, highlighting the severe shortage of manpower within the tribe.

Yuri’s face darkened, his voice heavy, “Elder Senzo has an agreement with you to resist the Wood tribe’s invasion outside. Why have you come here?”

“Heh, nothing much. Just here to take a look,” Fang Heng replied with a chuckle, spreading his hands. “Actually, I’ve been thinking. What if I help you drive back the Wood tribe and you still refuse to give me the sacred tree branch? Wouldn’t that be a huge loss for me?”

“Do not speak nonsense!” Yuri watched Fang Heng warily. “Fang Heng! This is a sacred place of the Leaf tribe. What exactly do you intend to do?”

“Nothing much. So I won’t beat around the bush,” Fang Heng said, dropping the mockery from his face and speaking seriously. “The Wood tribe is coming on strong, and I don’t think you’ll necessarily hold them off. I don’t care about anything else, but you need to give me what you promised first.”

Yuri stared at Fang Heng, veins bulging on his arm as he gripped his scepter.

A blatant threat!

However, this was precisely the critical moment when the sacred tree sapling was absorbing the essence of the sacred tree.

Yuri didn’t want to resort to violence against Fang Heng and could only restrain his inner fury.

“All the materials previously plundered from the Wood tribe are in the hands of Elder Vannes,” Yuri continued coldly. “If you want to demand something, go find Elder Vannes.”

“It’s fine. I only know that you’re in charge of the sapling of the sacred tree. Give me the thing and I’ll leave.” Fang Heng looked at Yuri and continued, “If you don’t give it to me, don’t blame me…”

“Impudent!”

Yuri was extremely furious. He roared and knocked the scepter in his hand heavily.

Last time, Fang Heng’s ambush in the dark resulted in severe injuries, rendering him unable to exert more than half of his full strength.

And now, with their defenses strengthened, Fang Heng still dared to stand here so brazenly!

Whoosh!

The sapling of the sacred tree burst into radiance.

“Bang! Bang!!!”

Earth rolled in front of Yuri, as over ten roaring wooden dragons surged out from the earth towards Fang Heng!

Dexi and Renzo, two young newly appointed elders, had long wanted to take down Fang Heng. They flew forward simultaneously, wielding slender light green longswords, swiftly attacking Fang Heng.

“Pa!”

Fang Heng’s toes touched the ground as he quickly stepped back, while magic arrays swiftly circulated his body.

Level up!

Hint: The player’s current level has increased to Level 42. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player has gained an additional 3,252 zombie clones.

Hint: The player’s current zombie clone count is 19,510.

Hint: The player’s Level 43 leveling requirement: Tier 1 rainbow crystal*200. The player has met the leveling requirements. Do you wish to level up?

In the next moment, a dense group of zombie clones surged out of the magic array and the rolling soil on the ground!

At the same time, Fang Heng quickly condensed a mark in front of him.

The alchemy magic array was activated in front of Fang Heng.

“Whoosh!!!”

A dark shadow darted out of the magic array.

The phantom shadow rat!

The phantom shadow rat swiftly climbed onto Fang Heng’s shoulder and puffed out its cheeks.

“Hu!!!!”

A dense black mist sprayed from the phantom shadow rat’s mouth!

Instantly, Fang Heng’s figure was enveloped in a layer of black mist.

From previous battles with the Wood tribe, Fang Heng realized that pollution could cause additional negative effects on the sacred tree.

Sure enough, upon seeing the sudden burst of black mist, Yuri’s expression changed drastically, and he shouted, “Be careful!”
