Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 289 - 203: The Gathering of Ancient Divine Spirits_1

Chapter 289: Chapter 203: The Gathering of Ancient Divine Spirits_1

Watching the final burst of the opponent, Ye Feng felt a lingering fear in his heart.

If he had been found by the adversary and directly subjected to that move, he would have had no chance of survival.

Fortunately, even though the enemy was able to emerge, they were restricted; at least they were unable to unleash such devastating power at will.

Otherwise, during their fight against his tree roots, the enemy would not have been so hindered and could have easily used such a tactic, which would have turned his numerous roots into nothing more than a futile effort.

But soon, Ye Feng became excited.

One reason was that the opponent had retreated, and judging by their state just now, it was unlikely they could emerge again; otherwise, they wouldn’t have waited until the last moment to vent their fury.

On the other hand, he sensed that the force the enemy had unleashed at the end was of the same origin as the special power they had consumed.

If he could thoroughly research this special power, perhaps he could also unleash such world-shattering attacks.

The great battle came to an end, and the dense fog gradually dissipated.

Only then did the top brass on the military side breathe a long sigh of relief after getting a clear view of the situation in the field.

At this moment, the Dense Fog Giant still remained on the battlefield, whereas the Seventh Order Strongman who had just emerged had retreated, clearly indicating that the Dragon King had won the battle.

Although they found it somewhat unbelievable, given that in their knowledge, the Dragon King’s strength was merely at Fourth Order, considering his identity as a True Dragon reincarnation, they quickly accepted this reality.

What followed was excitement, as cheers resounded throughout the battlefield.

Of course, even so, not many were truly at ease, since no one knew whether the Forbidden Area would continue to send out powerful individuals; after all, there was still another Seventh Order Strongman inside!

If both of them were to come out together, no one knew if the Dragon King could keep holding on.

But no matter what, they had won this round.

In contrast to the military side’s broad smiles, Tian Yun and Ling were not in such good spirits; their expressions were grave, yet they remained silent.

This situation was something they had never anticipated.

"What exactly happened?" Eventually, Tian Yun was the first to speak up and asked.

Since Ye Feng had always concealed himself well, even the broken tree roots were shrouded by dense fog.

To others, it seemed like Ling continuously broke the tail of the Dense Fog Giant, which then rapidly regrew, and the details were unclear.

Of course, during this process, Tian Yun had also sent out his spiritual power to investigate.

Unfortunately, his spiritual power was blocked and sent back; the opponent was able to multitask and defend against his spiritual power even while battling Ling, which was outrageous.

"I was fighting against a sentient tree," Ling stated in a somber tone.

"A tree?" Tian Yun wondered if he had misheard.

"Yes, a tree. Those Dense Fog Giants were actually hiding roots inside them."

"What’s more terrifying is that each root could burst with the force of 40 tons, and the opponent had more than 500 such roots. Using just half of them was enough to exert 10,000 tons of force to overpower me."

"And it also demonstrated the abilities of lightning and dense fog," Ling continued with increasing gravity.

These details, the more he heard, the more preposterous it seemed.

"You missed one more thing, his spiritual power," Tian Yun added.

The two lapsed into another silence.

In the end, it was Tian Yun who spoke first, "Let’s go. We should return for now. This situation has exceeded what we can handle. We can only report back to Lord Qiongqi."

"But..." Ling hesitated.

He was well aware of what the consequences of returning now would be; besides, the one who brought the Diamond-shaped Crystal Stone into battle was him, so the punishment he would receive would likely be even greater.

Tian Yun seemed to guess what the other was thinking and reminded, "Unless you can think of a better solution right now, dragging this out meaninglessly may invite an even harsher punishment."

"You know that Lord Qiongqi’s domain can conceal our presence, but this concealment isn’t permanent."

"As time goes on, the likelihood of us being discovered by the world’s will increases, and when that happens, it won’t just be bad luck for us, but also the domain that Lord Qiongqi struggled to establish may be affected."

"Should that occur, the punishment won’t be something you or I can bear." Having said that, Tian Yun stepped up to the teleportation portal and walked in without hesitation.

Ling sighed, feeling resigned as he followed.

Their disappearance, of course, was noticed immediately, with Ye Feng employing his spiritual power to investigate.

Once he confirmed they had indeed left, he hurriedly extended his roots into the Forbidden Area to drag out the corpses of the creatures and Skeleton Creatures.

These were treasures!

However, as Ye Feng’s roots touched them, whether it was the corpses of the creatures or the Skeleton Creatures, all turned into black fog and then vanished into the earth.

"Corrosive Energy? Damn it, to not even spare their own subordinates, what a beast," Ye Feng cursed, feeling deeply disheartened.

But then he thought for a moment, the opponent was indeed a beast in the first place, so he stopped cursing and quickly withdrew his roots, eager to absorb his side’s spoils of war. freewebnøvel.com
