Chapter 100: Slaying the Thousand-Year Tree Demon

And on the entire battlefield, the greatest number of enemies were the twenty black-armored guards.

They were facing the Flowery Monk—Lu Zhishen—who was also a soldier and was the first of the ten leaders of Mount Liang’s army.

Thud!

The fifty-kilogram Frost Metal Meditation Staff was struck with immense strength, causing a black-armored guard who was improperly dressed to fall back to the ground. He had only managed to crawl up and grab his saber.

The black armor was greatly deformed, and the bones attached to the dried and bloodless flesh inside directly disintegrated.

Boom!

After turning his head, he waved the Frost Metal Meditation Staff again.

Another black-armored Nether Guard was sent flying more than ten meters away. He crashed into a tombstone and his head dropped off.

Apart from that, there was also...

“Awoo!”

A wolf’s howl sounded as more than ten gray wolves with green eyes rushed into the battlefield. They pounced on the guards who had just managed to recover from the Soul Grenades. Unfortunately, they did not have the time to form a battle formation.

Furthermore, because they had been drinking and enjoying themselves with the girls, the Black Mountain Guards didn’t wear their armor properly.

The big gray wolves’ strength was close to Rank-6. It was not much inferior to the Black Armor Guard that had been weakened by the Battlefield of Providence.

In particular, they were covered in talisman paper, making it appear as if they were wearing a layer of “armor”.

It had to be said that Fatty Zhu, who was a bootlicker, at least had a thorough understanding of the movie’s details.

He actually remembered a small detail like how “Cinnabar Talisman Money” printed on Ning Caichen made Nie Xiaoqian feel fear.

Therefore, he specially used the bounty he obtained from capturing Liu Yidao in the county city to buy all the sold talismans.

Although the power of the talisman money, which originally was at the level of Extraordinary Rank-0, was very low and did not have much practical use against the Nether Guard, they became truly powerful talisman charms after Ji Ye redid the drawing with Extraordinary blood!

“Awoo!”

Therefore, when the gray wolves’ attacks landed on the black-armored guards, apart from tearing off their incomplete armor, the exorcism power released by these talismans could even wear down their souls.

“Damn it!”

In the battle against the “Boss”, Granny Tree Demon was actually at a disadvantage.

At this moment, she had lost her two arms. They fell to the ground and turned into two black withered branches!

Thud!

As Granny Tree Demon cursed silently, a red figure flashed past. Even a crack appeared on her neck. Then, even her head that was speaking fell off.

The red-haired hero had outstanding strength. Even though the thousand-year-old tree demon’s body was that of a tree, she had been weakened by the Battlefield. It couldn’t be considered top-notch combat strength.

However, to be able to sever her arm and even her head in the blink of an eye showed how extraordinary this hero that followed the assassin path.

As a gaming settlement, Fatty was at an advantage. He could fuse technology, magic, and runes.

However, Ji Ye guessed that it was impossible for him to not have disadvantages.

For example, according to Fatty, the famous “hero” in this game he was playing should have been very powerful. It wasn’t something that he could summon at the moment.

However, this red-haired hero, who was good at assassination, had arrived as an Extraordinary Superior. It was obvious that an “exception” had been made!

Clearly, there were gains and losses.

“I want you dead!”

Granny Tree Demon, whose head had fallen off, was not yet dead.

As a thousand-year-old tree demon, her true weakness wasn’t in her head, but in her soul and core.

In her rage, she revealed her true form and burrowed into the ground. Instantly, the entire graveyard began to shake.

“Retract!”

At this moment, Ji Ye finally figured out how to use the black-red gourd and retract the surrounding miasma and Demon Souls.

These two gourds were actually Extraordinary Rank-2 magical artifacts. Clearly, the other party was indeed a human from a cultivation dimension.

“Young Master, save me!”

At this moment, Ji Ye suddenly heard a cry for help.

Turning around, he saw that the white-dressed Nie Xiaoqian’s figure was slightly dissipating. She wore panic on her face as she flew in his direction at full speed.

Originally, he had instructed Nie Xiaoqian not to approach this battlefield to avoid being accidentally injured.

Why was she asking him for help now?

Could it be that Black Mountain’s reinforcements had arrived?

“Demoness, why did you cause such a commotion tonight? Why are you acting so sneakily? Are you trying to harm someone again?”

However, when he saw Yan Chixia rushing over with a black sword case that was half a person’s height on his back, he understood the reason.

Originally, Ji Ye did not tell Yan Chixia about this battle.

Firstly, there were various reasons that made it really difficult to explain to him.

Even if he didn’t say anything, with Yan Chixia’s character, he would definitely rush over immediately once the battle began.

However, he did not expect Yan Chixia to run into Nie Xiaoqian who was standing outside.

He probably thought that the female ghost had taken the initiative to cause trouble again, so he directly attacked her!

“Sir, please don’t attack her!”

Just as Yan Chixia was about to take out a long, bronze-colored needle that contained magical power to throw at Nie Xiaoqian’s back—

Ding!

Ji Ye rushed forward and hit the side of the bronze needle with the Black Serpent Sword, deflecting it.

Boom!

The bronze needle slammed into a nearby tree which instantly erupted into a large ball of flames. If it hit Nie Xiaoqian, it was very likely that she would be severely injured or even have her soul dissipate!

“Boy, can’t you tell right from wrong? She’s a ghost, not a human!” Yan Chixia stared at Ji Ye and said, his beard trembling with anger.

“I know she’s a ghost, but there are good and bad ghosts. Sir, I’ll explain it to you in detail after this battle!” Ji Ye quickly said to Yan Chixia with an anxious expression.

“I want all of you to die!”

After Granny Tree Demon revealed her true form, she had already controlled the huge roots that covered the entire graveyard to attack the people above.

Be it Lu Zhishen or Katarina, both of them were affected by her attacks. Although one could escape with his divine power and the other kept dodging at high speeds,

it was undoubtedly difficult to fight normally.

“Awoo, Awoo!”

As for the gray wolf pack, they suffered even more. With their limbs wrapped by tree roots, it was difficult for them to deal with the black-armored guards who escaped them and were stronger. They were injured or killed!

“Sigh, I’ll tell you after dealing with this tree demon. I told you to cultivate your body and mind!”

Yan Chixia grumbled in disappointment, having expected better from him.

He quickly took off the black sword case on his back and pasted a yellow talisman on it.

“Go, sword!”

The next moment, the brass sword that was emitting a layer of red light flew into the air from the opened sword case.

Hum!

After reaching a certain height, he accelerated and rushed underground.

“Ah!”

Then, Granny Tree Demon let out a scream that sounded neither male nor female. The ground in the mass graveyard stopped moving.

After that, the brass sword that drilled out of the ground was held in Yan Chixia’s hand. The red light on it dissipated, but it was stained with some traces similar to tree sap.

“Is it dead?”

Ji Ye asked Yan Chixia.

“How can it be that easy? This is its territory that it has been running for centuries. Its roots are intertwined and deep-rooted.”

Yan Chixia frowned and shook his head.

“I just used the sword case’s nurturing power to maximize the power of the sword and severely injured it with one strike. However, it’s not that easy to kill it unless there’s a way to go underground.”

The thousand-year-old tree demon’s main body was hidden underground. Without superpowers or spells like Earth Escape, it was difficult to kill her.

“Got it!”

Ji Ye’s heart stirred.

The Soul Alpha Wolf at its chest took form. Then, it turned into a black stream of light and drilled into the hole left by Yan Chixia!

“Ah!”

After a while, the ground trembled slightly again.

The Soul Alpha Wolf was also an Extraordinary Rank-4. The heavily injured Granny Tree Demon was naturally not its match.

“I knew it. Slut, you were the one who lured them here. How dare you betray me? Let’s die together!”

However, the thousand-year-old tree demon roared angrily before its death.

This was because it had discovered that Nie Xiaoqian and Ji Ye were standing together. In its anger, it controlled its tree branches and shattered Nie Xiaoqian’s ashes.
