The King of Trees used its thick branches to lift them up and quickly drove forward. Wuji sat cross-legged on the branch and sent out his divine sense to 'look' at the beautiful scenery around them. The further they went, the more lush the forest became. The trees were nearly 30 meters tall and more than a meter thick. Wherever the King of Trees passed, they shook their thick branches and welcomed him. As expected of the Forest Clan, just these trees alone were enough to surpass millions of soldiers.
The King of Trees moved very fast. It took him half an hour to reach the center of the Forest Tribe. There was a towering tree that was 1,000 meters tall and 100 meters thick. It was the real body of the King of Trees. The one who met Wuji was just a form that the King of Trees had attached his consciousness to an ordinary tree.
Under the towering tree, the lights were brightly lit. Demons of all shapes and sizes were gathered here. The return of the Tree King attracted the attention of all the demons. Wuji and the four beautiful women jumped down from the branches and walked forward as if they were ignoring thousands of eyes.
The Tree King's clone returned to the old form he had used before." The time has come. Today is the day my daughter succeeds the saintess. I welcome all friends who have come from afar. The ceremony begins."
Mu Ling 'er slowly moved her waist, and her green lotus slowly walked forward. When she passed Wuji, she sighed,"If possible, I really wish to travel the entire demon world with you. I even fantasized about going to the world you live in to take a look, but now…"
" If you don't want to be the saintess, then don't be. Your father is the Tree King anyway. He can't force you."
"If only it's as simple as you say." Mu Ling 'er walked towards the altar, leaving Wuji confused.
Mei 'er explained,"Over the past few hundred years, the Forest Clan's divine tree has begun to wither. Until now, we still haven't found out the reason why they used the most ancient sacrificial method to select a saintess to extend the life of the divine tree."
"What will happen if the Tree of God dies?" Wuji asked.
"Do you want to die? Curse the God Tree here. Once the divine tree disappears, the Forest Clan will be like a weaned doll. In less than a hundred years, they will be completely wiped out from the Demon Realm."
"I'm very curious. Since the Divine Tree is already in danger, why did they invite the demons of various forces to participate in the succession ceremony with great fanfare? Isn't this deliberately spreading the news to the entire Demon Realm? Aren't they afraid that the yao of other factions will attack the Forest Clan?”Wuji asked,
"You don't know, right? As long as there were trees, the Forest Clan could easily control them. In the Demon Realm, the savage beast clan was the common enemy of all forces. As long as they made a slight movement, the Forest Clan would know. Not only that, but the Forest Clan is also the main pillar of defense against the savage beasts. Without their help, the demon generals of other forces will find it difficult to defeat the savage beasts."
"The yao of the other forces naturally don't want the divine tree to die, so they actively participated in the rescue operation. I heard that the Forest Clan's Deity level expert, Azure Dragon, went to a higher level world in order to find a way to save the Divine Tree?
" So that's how it is. Does it mean that if you cure the Divine Tree, you don't have to be that Saintess anymore?"
"If the divine tree is flourishing, what use is there for a saintess? According to what you said, do you have a way?”Mei 'er asked with anticipation.
Wuji calmly replied,"No."
“……”。
Wuji and Mei 'er's intimate actions were seen by the Beast Clan. Not long after, a thick and mighty furry Beastman rushed over angrily,"Brat, are you tired of living? You even dare to touch your Grandpa Bear's woman? Are you courting death?"
Wuji frowned and his eyes shot out a bright light. He then hid it and smiled. So it was a stupid bear! Seeing that you're a beast, I won't argue with you."
Mei 'er stood between the two of them and said angrily," Bear Bun, who's your woman? I'm still single!”，
"Good Mei 'er, didn't our two families agree that after your coming-of-age ceremony, I will marry you?" Just now, she still looked like she wanted to eat someone up, but Mei' er's words immediately made her impotent. She surrounded Mei 'er and kept flattering her. Wuji smiled slightly and turned his head to watch the succession ceremony.
"Wuji, don't take big dumb bear's words to heart. He's always like this, he's always so outspoken, and whenever he speaks, he offends the demon," Mei 'er apologized on behalf of Xiong Bao.
Don't worry, I won't take a beast seriously."
Xiong Bao was furious when he heard this. If Mei 'er hadn't stopped him, he would have slapped this pretty boy to death.
Mu Ling 'er stood on the five-meter-tall sacrificial platform and danced. There were magic formations carved around the sacrificial platform. As Mu Ling' er danced, the wood demon power on her body turned into a green light and flew towards the forbidden land. The divine tree in the forbidden land absorbed the purest wood demon power from Mu Ling 'er's body. Its thick body shook, and a green light flashed on its torso before disappearing.
Mu Ling 'er's demon power continued to erupt from the altar, and her pale green face turned sickly pale. The rapid loss of her wood demon power made her unable to hold on any longer, and she fainted on the altar.
Wuji's figure disappeared from the crowd of demons. He flew up to the sacrificial platform and helped Mu Ling 'er up. This change shocked all the demons, especially Xiong Bao. His eyes widened. He couldn't believe that the pretty boy from before was actually a powerful expert. Large beads of sweat flowed down his furry cheeks.
"Now you know why I stopped you!”Mei 'er said.
Thank you, Mei 'er."
Wuji helped the unconscious Mu Ling 'er up and was about to bring her down when the Tree Emperor stopped her. Put her down. The succession ceremony isn't over yet."
When you're done, she'll be dead."
The Tree King said leisurely,"This is her destiny. Please don't interfere with the matters of our tribe. If you insist on taking her down the altar, you will be an enemy of the Forest Tribe."
"To think that I respected you so much. Your biological daughter fainted in front of you, but you were indifferent. You don't deserve to be her father. Wait, are you still a demon?"
"Old Tree Head, this kid actually dares to cause trouble in your territory, and he's even holding the purest saintess in his hands. Where will you put your face! "With my temper, I would have long chopped that brat into meat paste and used him as fertilizer." Huo Ling 'er's father, Huo Shen, fanned the flames by the side.
"Old Huo, shut your stinky mouth. "Where are the altar guards? Take that human down!" The Tree King said sternly.
The totem-like statues around the base of the altar came alive. They gathered the wood power and grew taller and bigger. They reached out their big hands to grab Wuji. The latter held Mu Ling 'er and moved with exquisite steps, easily dodging the attack. He poured Xiantian true qi into his fist and punched the guard's chest. Boom! The powerful force blasted a huge hole in the guard's chest. Through the hole, one could clearly see what was happening below.
" This kid is quite skilled. I'll go and play too," Fire God said excitedly.
" Stop right there, Old Huo, hey…"
The Fire God ignored the Tree King's shout and turned into a ball of fire above the altar. He waved his hand and shot several big fireballs at Wuji. He stood in the air with his arms crossed, watching how the little guy in the ring would deal with it. The Fire God's strength was not comparable to the Altar Guard. Wuji felt the pressure from the sky and drew a circle with one hand to use the innate Qi to condense the strongest martial art, the Tai Chi Diagram, to block the big fireballs.
The big fireball bombarded the Taiji Diagram, and each time it hit, Wuji's body would retreat a bit. When he took all the attacks, he was already at the edge of the altar." Not bad, not bad at all. You deserve praise. Human, what's your name?"
"Wuji."
Wuji took a deep breath and gently placed the jade figure on the altar. Being beaten passively wasn't Wuji's style. With every step he took, his momentum became stronger, and the speed at which the innate Qi in his body condensed became faster. When he reached the center of the altar, his momentum had been raised to the extreme."It's impolite not to reciprocate. Take this."
The index fingers of both hands danced quickly, and several light blue finger energies attacked the Fire God in the air. The latter repeated the same trick and shot out several large fireballs to resist it. The innate finger energies that Wuji shot out were not so easy to break. They instantly passed through the large fireballs, causing a huge explosion, and went straight for the Fire God's face.
The Fire God, who was extremely experienced in battle, quickly retreated in a thunderbolt form. When the power of the innate finger energy was greatly reduced, he waved his hand and wiped it away."Good kid, you still have such a powerful move. Take this again, Fire Dragon Dance."
Wuji stood sideways, infusing his innate Qi into his right arm. The light blue light became brighter and brighter. Just as the two were about to attack, the shadows of the trees covered the sky in front of them. The Tree King standing on the ground shouted," Enough, this is my territory. You can't do anything you want."
"It's over, Old Treehead is angry. It seems like this fight won't work. Wuji, let's fight another day!”Fire God said,
" I'll be waiting anytime."
The scene fell silent for a moment, and a soft voice came from behind. Looking back, Mu Ling 'er had already woken up, and a bitter smile appeared on her pale face. She said weakly,"Wuji, don't fight anymore. I'm fine. I'll be fine after a few days of rest." Thank you."
Wuji took out an immortal bean from his pocket and handed it to her."Believe me and eat it."
"Yeah."
Mu Ling 'er chewed the immortal bean with difficulty and swallowed it. Immediately after, her pale face turned red. The over-consumed wood demonic power filled her entire body again, and there was a faint increase in her strength. Mu Ling' er, who had recovered to her original state, said in surprise,"This is too magical. What did you give me to eat?"
" Immortal beans, beans bestowed by the gods."
