Chapter 1723: Exterminating the Demon Tree

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

“Recognize my ass, it’s just a f**king tree, I don’t believe it has the ability to recognize someone,” Mo Fan said.

“Ugh… you’re right, we Asians think Africans all look alike, too,” Zhao Manyan admitted after giving it some thought.

Once the population of the creatures reached a certain level, it would provoke them to kill one another. When the last creature standing thought it could finally claim the throne, the Giant Purple Linden would eat it and slowly digest it. Only then would the creature realize it had been prey all along.

The Giant Purple Linden’s patience was unbelievable. It was willing to spend ten, twenty, or even thirty years slowly laying down its plan. If Yan Shi had not exposed it, it might lay its hands on a human city next. After all, humans were easily deceived by appearance!

Mo Fan could already feel the stronger Wind of Sorrow blowing through the gaps between the branches at his current height, and could still see the colorful feathers of the winged beasts filling up the sky. They were well-behaved, as if they were awaiting further instructions from their god. They might not even care if their nests were invaded. After all, every ambitious winged beast had been waiting for the ceremony to secure a better house or mansion!

“Are you sure you can find the Sacred Linden Leaves?” Mo Fan asked Yu Shishi, who was climbing the tree with him.

“I can locate them when the demon tree starts to attack with the Devil Tree Spikes after you tear off its mask. The Sacred Linden Leaves are the source of its energy,” Yu Shishi said confidently.

“Very well…” Mo Fan nodded.

“But you have to be extremely careful. It is still a terrifying demon, despite its current state!” Yu Shishi reminded him.

Even a Totem Beast like the Moon Moth Phoenix had almost died to the demon tree, let alone a group whose combined strength was not even comparable to a tenth of a half-Forbidden Mage like Yan Shi. It would not be easy to kill the demon tree!

“Don’t worry, those people of the Violent Imperial Battalion are with us. Li Dexin might be an annoying jerk, but he is still quite strong,” Mo Fan said.

“Alright, you can start once I’m in position. If I can pluck the Sacred Linden Leaves, it will greatly weaken the demon!” Yu Shishi said.

They waited until Yu Shishi had climbed higher up the tree. Mo Fan asked Bai Hongfei to go with her to look after her. The winged beasts might be busy with the ceremony, but there was no guarantee the fliers would not intervene with their business. They had to be careful at all times!

“We’re in position!” Bai Hongfei signaled them.

Mo Fan ignited a small fireball, signaling the rest of the group to proceed with the plan.

“Keep up the disguise, have a taste of my Mount Lu Rise Dragon!” Mo Fan stomped his foot and engulfed himself in the flames of the Meteor Scarlet.

{TL Note: Mount Lu Rise Dragon is Shiryu’s skill, a character from Saint Seiya.}

The fiery dragons made up of the Meteor Scarlet and the Ardent Sunset flew across the sky. They gradually enlarged as their flames grew stronger!

“Come back here!”

Just as the Giant Purple Linden assumed Mo Fan was attacking the winged beasts, the fiery dragons returned and slammed down heavily on the tree cave!

The destructive flames spread wildly. The Giant Purple Linden was enjoying the competition between the winged beasts, while waiting to reap some long-awaited harvests. It did not expect there to be a maniac that would bother attacking a tree!

The branches of the Giant Purple Linden shook vigorously. It was able to use it Demon Tree Spikes to set up a perfect defense, but the problem was, it did not expect the humans to be after it in the first place!

It was only a tree, after all, and so was not as intelligent as most creatures. More precisely, it did not have a real brain. It happened to taste the fresh blood of demon creatures once after a huge battle happened between two tribes, so it kept using the same trick to nurture itself into a demon!

With a huge blast, the fiery dragons penetrated the weak defense the demon tree had set up in a panic, and slammed into the tree cave on the Giant Purple Linden.

The Giant Purple Linden shuddered suddenly, but it was useless, since it did not have any chance to dodge the attacks.

The tree’s bark was extremely thick, yet the flames still managed to scorch it and leave a huge hole in the Giant Purple Linden’s forehead!

The Giant Purple Linden realized its identity was exposed. It stopped disguising itself and turned its branches into deadly weapons, pouring them down at Mo Fan!

Even though it only had a main trunk left, the Devil Tree Spikes covered a huge area, with almost no gaps between them. Mo Fan thought he was prepared, yet he still had no chance to escape to safety with Blink!

“Old Zhao!” Mo Fan yelled.

“Titan Hug!” Zhao Manyan responded instantly.

An enormous silhouette backlit by a brown light expanded rapidly. It had grown to the size of a small mountain by the time it reached Mo Fan’s position. Its actions were synchronized with Zhao Manyan. It leaned forward and spread its arms to protect Mo Fan with its back.

The Devil Tree Spikes left countless tiny holes in the sturdy back of the titan. Some of the thicker branches even punctured it and attacked Mo Fan!

It gave Mo Fan a huge fright. He quickly dodged the branches, but they kept pouring down, and destroyed Zhao Manyan’s spell!

“Damn it, is that thing made of diamond!?” Zhao Manyan was startled at the outcome.

The Titan Hug was one of his strongest defensive spells, but the Giant Purple Linden had punctured it like it was something made of Play-do. The giant figure was beyond recognition in just a brief moment!

Mo Fan turned into a shadow bird and fled to the edge of the cliff. He heard Bai Hongfei yelling before he could set down, “Teacher, look out!”

A massive elastic branch swept at Mo Fan like a powerful tentacle, fierce and brutal!

The rocks were smashed into pieces, shattered like mere bubbles. Mo Fan’s figure faded away amid the dust that had been swept into the air. He reappeared on top of an ancient tree three hundred meters away.

The tree was like a little sapling compared to the Giant Purple Linden. The demon tree was able to track Mo Fan’s location with ease. The truth was, a distance of three hundred meters was like a little hop compared to its enormous size, which had shrouded the whole sky!
