Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 441 - 277: Gather, Heading to Rule Mountain_2

Of course, under normal circumstances, once mutated animals reach the Sixth Order, they are capable of containing more than 10,000 Spiritual Energy Points within their bodies.

Therefore, based on this situation, Ye Feng directly created a batch of Spirit Fruits and Fruits of Life according to the standard of 10,000 points.

It was as if he had spent 20,000 Spiritual Energy Points on each mutated animal, so for 24,000 mutated animals, that was a total of 480 million Spiritual Energy Points.

As for the Insect Army, they received the same treatment. Of course, the Spirit Fruits and Fruits of Life made for them were of 1,000 Spiritual Energy Points each, with each mutated insect receiving 2,000 Spiritual Energy Points.

Although the amount of Spiritual Energy invested in each mutated insect was small, their numbers were vast!

For 200,000 mutated insects, Ye Feng had spent 400 million Spiritual Energy Points.

By now, Ye Feng only had 3.72 billion Spiritual Energy Points left.

However, this was more than enough. If it was just for battle consumption, fighting for several months wouldn’t be a problem.

Having finished everything that needed to be done, Ye Feng checked the time and it was already 6 o’clock in the morning.

There were only three hours left until the assessment’s deadline.

If he didn’t reach Rule Mountain within three hours, he would be rejected by the Heaven and Earth.

Ye Feng immediately led the main force towards the location he had agreed upon with Zhang Ji.

Yes, for this final stretch, Ye Feng planned to bring them along.

Because at Rule Mountain, there certainly would be an army from the forbidden area.

If Zhang Ji’s team went there alone, leaving the others aside, even Chen Dalong would probably die.

At this moment, the army from Dragon Hall, except for those who were breaking through and were already at the Sixth Order, had an incredibly terrifying marching speed.

Even the speed of marching on the ground could reach over 900 kilometers per hour.

This speed of march was already comparable to that of a normal commercial airplane.

So, just 10 minutes later, they had covered a distance of 150 kilometers and were about to reach the location they had agreed upon with Zhang Ji and the others.

...

On a gentle slope near the core area, thousands of people were already waiting there.

Zhang Ji stood on a large boulder higher up on the hillside, gazing into the interior of the core area with an extremely cautious expression in his eyes.

Inside the core area, a 10-person squad was attempting to break in, but they had not walked even 1 kilometer when they encountered the third wave of puppet attacks.

The first two waves of attacks were manageable, consisting only of Rock Puppets, and there were only five or six of them, which they quickly dealt with through joint efforts.

In the third wave of attacks, though, they still only encountered five puppets, but the problem was that Peak Sixth Order Metal Puppets had now appeared.

At this point, the 10-person squad was completely at a disadvantage.

If the fight continued this way, it was estimated that it would be only two or three minutes before casualties occurred.

In fact, if their opponents were merely these Metal Puppets, with the advantage in numbers, they would definitely not be in such a situation, and could have coped calmly even if they couldn’t win.

But the problem was that, occasionally during the battle, a column of fire would erupt from the ground.

And these columns of fire were not just simple eruptions; the flames could cause the entire ground to burn up.

In other words, as the battle progressed, the ground would rapidly turn into a sea of fire.

If their team did not have a Fire Attribute Superpower User who could control these flames with his ability and clear a space, by now they might already have had casualties.

"It truly lives up to the core area, it’s indeed dangerous! If relying solely on us, it’s almost impossible to push through forcefully. Our only choice is to keep avoiding battles and flee deeper inside."

"But the distance to Rule Mountain at the center is still nearly 300 kilometers away, and who knows how many dangers are waiting inside. Even if we rush in recklessly, it would probably be a slim chance of survival," Zhang Ji couldn’t help but say.

Chen Dalong’s expression also grew more serious beside him. What he thought of was more than just the battles in this core area; it was the challenges they would face after reaching Rule Mountain.

"Send a signal for them to come back! There’s no need for further testing. Everyone else can see clearly the dangers we will face next, so let’s persuade those who should be dissuaded to leave," Chen Dalong said.

Zhang Ji nodded, his gaze shifting to several teams not far away.

The teams gathered here were not just from Donghai Province, but from all over the country.

After entering the Land of Inheritance, they had been in contact with each other, especially after witnessing the dangers of the core area, they reached a consensus to charge in together.

For this reason, the strongest team in the field was not Yang City’s team, but the team from the capital city.

The team from the capital city had over 600 members, and more than 90% of them were superhumans.

More importantly, they had many strong fighters.

You should know that to be still called a fighter now, one had to be a superhuman or evolutionist of at least the Sixth Order.

And they had an astonishing number of such strong fighters—exactly 100.

In contrast, even though Yang City’s team had 150 members with Chen Dalong’s care, only 15 of them had broken through to the Sixth Order. The difference in strength was vast.

Moreover, the top three powerhouses on the national ranking, Bai Junheng, Wu Yuqin, and Fang Ziyuan, were all part of the capital city’s team—their team strength could be described as luxurious.

At this moment, Bai Junheng, who was leading the team from the capital city, saw the probing team starting to withdraw and, after instructing someone beside him, walked over to where Chen Dalong and the others were.

With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and wearing a set of white combat attire, he somehow exuded a somewhat ethereal aura.

He walked up to Zhang Ji and others not slowly, cupped his hands with a smile, and said, "I’ve already instructed my side; anyone who hasn’t reached the Sixth Order has been persuaded to leave, so as not to make things difficult for you."

"Hmm," Zhang Ji nodded and responded, "It’s not that I’m being harsh, but those who haven’t reached the Sixth Order are truly a burden, and that would make it difficult for me as well."

Just then, a man beside Bai Junheng, somewhat impatiently, asked, "Commander Zhang, the agreed time is almost upon us, why haven’t we seen a sign of Dragon Hall? Should you go and inquire about it?"

Zhang Ji hadn’t even spoken when Chen Dalong coldly said, "Even if the time hasn’t come yet, so what? Don’t forget, we are the ones in need of others, so restrain your emotions."

The man’s face flushed with anger, and just as he was about to retort fiercely, Bai Junheng raised his hand to interrupt him, "Brother Chen is right, I apologize on behalf of this brother, and we will calmly wait."

After finishing, he bowed apologetically and then led the people back.

"Brother Bai, why didn’t you let me speak?" the man just then asked.

"Because what he said was right, it is indeed us asking for others, and you need to control your temper. If you really offend the Dragon King, even if he kills you, we won’t be able to do anything," Bai Junheng said seriously.

"Hey, I’m just bad-tempered, not stupid. But are you really not going to take command?" he asked in a low voice.

He had intentionally provoked the other side just now, thinking if they couldn’t resist fighting back, and he defeated them, the command would naturally fall into their hands.

Rather than the current situation, where everyone was still in charge of their own affairs.

"You can’t beat him?" Bai Junheng asked.

"Brother Bai, are you joking? My ranking might not be very high, but I am still in the top 50 on the power ranking. How could I not defeat an evolutionist?" Meng Yan replied.

You should know, the strongest evolutionist from their capital city could only rank around 500.

So, within the same Realm, a combat-oriented superhuman tends to be stronger than an evolutionist, which had almost become a fact.

"Have you ever seen me joke about this kind of thing?" Bai Junheng cast a glance at him.

"This..." Meng Yan found himself at a loss for words.

Only then did Bai Junheng add, "He gives me a very dangerous feeling, to be honest, if it really came to a fight, I wouldn’t be confident that I could win for sure."
