Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 424 - 269 Bai Yinghui Seeks Help_1

After securing the Black Meteorite Iron, Ye Feng looked forward with anticipation and walked toward the clump of Spirit Grass not far away.

"So many Spirit Grasses, as long as they aren’t too ineffective, then I’ve made a huge profit," Ye Feng mumbled to himself while stretching out his claws and nonchalantly plucked a Spirit Grass and threw it into his mouth.

Unlike the delicious Spirit Fruits he had before, these Spirit Grasses tasted somewhat sour and astringent.

Of course, Ye Feng didn’t care about the taste; what he was keenly feeling was the pure energy emanating from these Spirit Grasses.

"A stalk of Spirit Grass contains energy equivalent to 300 Spiritual Energy Points, not bad," a smile couldn’t help but appear on Ye Feng’s face.

Before him, there were at least 100,000 stalks of Spirit Grass!

Simply put, just this one haul had dramatically increased the overall strength of the entire Dragon Hall.

After all, one stalk of Spirit Grass was equivalent to 300 Spiritual Energy Points; therefore, only 16 stalks would be needed for a Third Order Mutated Creature in the early stage to break through to the early stages of Fourth Order.

And most of the Mutated Animals in the Dragon Hall were in the middle to late stages of Third Order. On average, about 10 stalks of Spirit Grass would enable a Third Order Mutated Animal to break through to Fourth Order.

This patch of Spirit Grass was completely sufficient to push the remaining 8,600-plus Third Order Mutated Animals to Fourth Order, and there would still be plenty left over.

"Very good, it seems the closer we get to the core area, the higher the chance of encountering good things. The next part of our journey will be to move laterally," Ye Feng quickly made a new plan.

As for the core area, he wasn’t planning to go there just yet.

From where he was, he could have a distant view of the core area.

Dramatically different from the peripheral and middle areas, the core area was bare.

It was just one barren mountain after another, not to mention dense forests, there was scarcely even any undergrowth.

Therefore, apart from Rule Mountain at the very center, there was likely little to no resources in the other areas of the core zone.

More importantly, even though Ye Feng was more than a dozen kilometers away from there, he could vaguely sense a sort of threatening atmosphere.

Clearly, this core area was the real test, set to filter out those creatures of weaker strength.

"It won’t be late to head over there when the three-day period is almost up," Ye Feng glanced a couple of times and then withdrew his gaze.

Soon under his command, all the Spirit Grass was plucked and then distributed.

Before long, all the Third Order Mutated Creatures had entered a state of breakthrough.

Ye Feng glanced over and saw that there were over 10,000 Mutated Animals in the midst of breaking through; if they were to be attacked at this time, it would be no fun at all.

But even so, he had no intention of stopping to find a place to recuperate.

He had the Mutated Red Fire Ants carry those Mutated Creatures who were breaking through and continued to move forward.

Next, as they searched the area close to the core zone, the probability of finding good items indeed increased as expected.

However, the Puppets they encountered had also grown stronger, when they had just entered the middle area, these Puppets were mostly Fifth Order.

But by this time, after delving deeper, most of the Puppets encountered were Sixth Order, and occasionally they even came across Metal Puppets.

But the gains truly were substantial; in the next hour, they actually found two more flat peach trees.

Moreover, these two flat peach trees had even more fruits than the first—one with as many as 1,000.

If it weren’t for the fact there were too many Mutated Animals currently breaking through, Ye Feng would have considered letting the next batch of Mutated Animals break through.

For now, Ye Feng could only temporarily keep these resources and wait until the more than 10,000 Mutated Animals had broken through to Fourth Order before moving on.

Then their journey was relatively smooth.

At least for Dragon Hall, it was quite smooth since unless they encountered the Forbidden Area Army, the dangers inherent to the Land of Inheritance itself really couldn’t pose any threat.

Before long, three hours had passed.

Though Ye Feng did not find another flat peach tree in the last two hours, he did find another place where Spirit Grass was cultivated, and the harvest was naturally beyond compare.

Of course, most important was that, after three hours had passed, all the Third Order Mutated Animals in Ye Feng’s team had reached Fourth Order.

The speed of breakthrough in the middle area here was three times that of the outside world; these Third Order Mutated Creatures only needed about an hour or so to break through a Minor Boundary.

So after three hours, it was enough for them to consecutively break through three minor boundaries.

Witnessing this scene stirred up a surge of heroic passion within Ye Feng, "I really didn’t expect that in just 5 hours, there would be such an immense gain, and that it would elevate the overall strength of the Dragon Hall to a new level."

"Next, I still have three days to scavenge," the thought made Ye Feng extremely excited. He could hardly imagine how immense the Dragon Hall’s overall strength would become after three days.

Ye Feng took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and then started pondering his next step in the enhancement plan.

In his possession, there were a whole 2,000 flat peaches and 100,000 stalks of Spirit Grass.

This was enough to allow 5,000 Fourth Order Mutated Animals to improve by one minor boundary.

Or let 1,250 Fourth Order Mutated Animals in the early stages directly advance to Fifth Order.

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, then, without much hesitation, he chose the latter option.

After all, elevating those mutated animals to the fifth order would greatly enhance their combat power.

Especially for those intrinsically powerful mutated animals, such as mutated elephants, mutated rhinos, and mutated tigers, breaking through to the fifth order would significantly boost the overall strength of the Animal Legion.

Ye Feng quickly made arrangements, opting not to elevate a single type of mutated animal alone.

Instead, he selected a portion of several different types of stronger mutated animals, rounding up a total of 1250, and then began to distribute the resources at hand.

Moments later, these more than a thousand mutated animals fell into a deep slumber. Just as Ye Feng was preparing to continue on his way to find more cultivation resources, the shrill sound of a ringing bell suddenly erupted.

Ye Feng paused mid-action, switching from his avatar status back to the body of the mutated parrot, then quickly took out the communicator hidden within his feathers.

This was given to him by Zhang Ji previously, meant for seeking help in dangerous moments.

The sound from the communicator at this moment likely meant they were facing a serious problem, which Ye Feng could not afford to ignore, especially since Chen Dalong was also on that side.

He hurriedly pressed the answer button, and to his surprise, it wasn’t Zhang Ji’s voice that came from the other side.

"Parrot Messenger, this is Bai Yinghui. We have encountered a metal creature with the strength of the sixth order. We’ve already suffered heavy casualties. Please come to save us, the price is negotiable," Bai Yinghui said, his tone rapid.

A flurry of thoughts crossed Ye Feng’s mind, eventually converging into two words, "Location?"

"It’s where we first entered, then about 5 kilometers to the southeast," Bai Yinghui replied hastily.

"Alright! Hawk Messenger is on his way, but I want to know what exactly happened?"

"The metal creature you just mentioned, I suspect it’s a Metal Puppet, but they shouldn’t be appearing in the peripheral area," Ye Feng said.

Hearing Ye Feng’s question, Bai Yinghui hesitated but ultimately explained, "Because these kiwi fruits are too miraculous. We entered quite late, and most of the kiwi fruit trees we found were already stripped of fruits."

"So someone proposed the idea to dig up these miraculous fruit trees and plant them elsewhere. If they can grow outside, then we could have a continuous supply of these kiwi fruits in the future."

"But we had just started excavating when we encountered a problem. A metal creature suddenly emerged from beneath the soil and attacked us. We had no choice but to seek your help."

Hearing this, Ye Feng was taken aback.

To be honest, the proposal to dig up these plants and take them was very tempting indeed!

If he could transfer the flat peach trees he had found earlier to Sunset Valley, that would likely be outstanding as well.

Moreover, he believed there were certainly more than just a few flat peach trees here; if he collected them all, he might be able to create a flat peach orchard.

However, Ye Feng’s train of thought was quickly interrupted by Bai Yinghui’s urgency, "Parrot Messenger, how much longer until Hawk Messenger arrives? We might not hold out much longer."

Ye Feng glanced at the call duration on the communicator, which was about half a minute, and offhandedly said, "Arrived."

After reaching the fifth order, the mutated eagle’s flying speed increased significantly, capable of reaching twice the speed of sound under normal conditions.

If it exerted its Hurricane ability to aid acceleration, its maximum speed could even reach six times the speed of sound.

Such speed would even surpass most sixth order mutated creatures.

Furthermore, with Ye Feng’s attribute enhancement, it could gain an additional twelve times the speed of sound.

That meant the mutated eagle’s extreme speed could reach a staggering eighteen times the speed of sound, equivalent to 6120 meters per second.

From his location, flying back to the entrance was about 200 kilometers; at such a speed, half a minute was all it needed to arrive.

On the other side, Bai Yinghui was momentarily stunned by Ye Feng’s words, but soon after, he felt a blast of wind and a gigantic eagle with a wingspan of over 200 meters appeared overhead.

The appearance of the mutated eagle instantly rallied the spirits of everyone on the ground.

Before Bai Yinghui could say anything, he saw the figure of the mutated eagle flash and instantly disappear.

The next instant, a deafening roar came from afar.

Bai Yinghui quickly activated the long-range vision of his tactical helmet and looked into the distance.

The thirty-meter-tall metal creature that had appeared before was now being suppressed and attacked.

And within just two rounds of the fight, one of its metal arms was already torn off.

This scene completely reshaped the group’s perception of Hawk Messenger’s combat power.

You see, they had just used the 2nd Generation Destroyer Hand Cannon, comparable to the firepower of a main battle tank, to bomb that metal creature into oblivion.

But tungsten steel armor-piercing shells could only leave half-meter-deep pits on it, and it could rapidly recover, managing to remain completely unharmed against them.

Now that the metal creature was being dominated, in the blink of an eye, its other arm was also detached, immediately halving its battle capability.

They watched as the mutated eagle, much like a butcher carving up meat, disassembled the metal creature into dozens of pieces, thoroughly destroying it.

And the entire process took merely a dozen seconds or so.
