Chapter 1292: The Crests of the Giant Purple Lindens

Translated by XephiZ

An odd sound was coming from the bushes. Lan Luo immediately scanned her surroundings cautiously.

It was difficult to tell if the grass was rustling because of the wind or there was indeed something moving among the grass. Therefore, they had to be on alert at all times, which was very mentally draining.

“I can’t sense where they are,” Zhao Manyan murmured.

“It’s their natural slaughterhouse here. They should have some way to avoid detection,” Mo Fan agreed.

“There are voices in this direction…” Lan Luo turned to her side before quickly turning around and blurting out, “There’s some movement here… and here too!”

Mo Fan looked around him. He grinned and said, “It looks like we’re getting close to their den, so a lot of them have come to intercept us!”

With a loud thud, a Hillman over two meters tall charged out from the grass right in front of Mo Fan and lunged at him. The creature was hiding less than ten meters away, close enough to pounce on Mo Fan right away!

Mo Fan cast an indifferent gaze at the creature. His eyes emitted a mysterious silver light when the Hillman drew close enough. The light instantly transformed into an invisible force.

Mo Fan used Telekinesis to knock the Hillman over ten meters into the air. A dark lightning bolt descended from the clear sky and landed precisely on the Hillman before it could react!

The bolt of lightning went through the Hillman’s body and immediately blew the creature into blood droplets. Its thick flesh, sturdy skin, and muscular build were completely useless against Mo Fan’s lightning with its twelvefold damage!

“So strong!” Lan Luo’s eyes glittered when she saw how Mo Fan had killed the Hillman so easily.

Hillmen were strong Warrior-level creatures, considering how they were able to wipe out groups of Hunters easily. Even so, they did not stand a chance against the young man. Lan Luo already had some idea on who Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were. After all, there were not many Mages so powerful at such a young age!

“A bunch of clowns, come out here!” Mo Fan snapped while completing a silver Star Pattern.

A silver rhomboid appeared above Mo Fan. It landed under Mo Fan’s control, applying a strong force across a huge area. The tall grass within three hundred meters was pressed flat to the ground. Even the ground sank a little under the pressure!

The grass was pressed flat. The Hillmen hiding in it while slowly sneaking up on the humans were completely exposed. The creatures stared at one another with blank faces. They did not expect the human Mage to have such domineering power!

However, the brutal Hillmen quickly unleashed a blood-red light and charged fiercely at the humans.

Lan Luo saw a few dozen Hillmen as soon as the area was exposed. Even an experienced Mage like her felt her scalp turning numb.

 1As for Guan Xixi and Liu Xiaojia, it was their first time seeing so many Warrior-level creatures. They were already hugging one another with trembling legs after feeling the terrifying auras of the creatures, so much stronger than the presence of mere Servant-class creatures!

“Why are they so many of them? I’m leaving these to you, I’ll hold this direction; Zhao Manyan, look after the girls,” Lan Luo said. She seemed pretty calm.

However, when eight Hillmen began to charge at her, she slightly lost her ground. She even failed to cast an Advanced Spell!

It could not be helped. Even when she was in some strong teams, she had never found herself in a situation like this. They were going up against around forty Warrior-level creatures. Each was strong enough to bring real danger to their team!

“I thought there would be hundreds of them waiting for us here. It looks like they aren’t treating us seriously enough, Mo Fan,” Zhao Manyan said.

“Same here, should I do it or you?” Mo Fan asked.

“You can do it, I’ll look after the girls!” Zhao Manyan said.

Mo Fan nodded. He slowly lifted his finger and pointed at the sky.

Lightning strikes suddenly flashed across the clear sky. They soon split into lightning arcs and rapidly gathered above Mo Fan’s finger…

The lightning arcs crackled sharply. At Mo Fan’s command, the lightning strikes descended rapidly, each over a hundred meters long and thick as an aged tree. When the dark lightning bolts struck the ground, they immediately spread into arcs of electricity, resembling a spider web covering an area of over a hundred meters. It started with a few dozen lightning strikes, but by the moment they reached the ground, there were hundreds or even thousands of lightning threads flickering wildly across the place!

The lightning was dazzling and loud, inflicting damage on every single Hillman scattered across the area, paralyzing the creatures while puncturing them…

The Hillmen cried out like apes in their pain. They continuously fell to the ground while twitching in the giant lightning web. Only a dozen or so were still standing after just a brief moment, barely withstanding the damage inflicted by the lightning!

“Tyrant Call!” Mo Fan hissed.

The Lightning Tyrant Scars had been stacking on the Hillmen, each able to call down an Exploding Apex with its damage amplified twelvefold. If there were more scars on the same Hillman, the lightning they triggered would be even stronger!

Hundreds of lightning strikes came down simultaneously at his trigger, sweeping the soil into the air while the flesh and blood of the Hillmen sprayed in the air after they were pulverized!

The lightning of Tyrant Call was insanely quick. It did not fork before attacking its target; it was just a blast with brute force that slaughtered the Hillmen, whether they were standing or lying on the ground!

A destructive aura lingered in the air, with the smell of burned flesh. Lan Luo, Guan Xixi, and Liu Xiaojia were completely dumbfounded…

That was more than forty Warrior-level creatures! Normally, they would need a huge team of Hunters against such a group of demon creatures, yet the young man had wiped them all out in just half a minute!

Lan Luo had already thought Mo Fan was insanely strong when she saw him killing a Hillman instantly. She did not expect he would be able to kill more than forty Warrior-level creatures like he was reaping crops… it completely toppled her understanding of magic!

“Come, I think we’re pretty close to their den,” Mo Fan said indifferently, dusting off his hands.

The three girls stood dumb like wooden chickens. It took them a while to recover from the shock!

Liu Xiaojia’s eyes were filled with glittering stars of admiration. She suddenly saw Mo Fan as her Prince Charming!

The man’s charm was off the charts compared to the boys who were outwardly attractive, but worthless inside. The way he controlled his lightning imperiously had changed her view of a man!

“Are…are you a Super Mage?” Lan Luo could not help but ask.

Lan Luo suddenly realized how stupid she sounded after asking the question. How was it possible for anyone to reach the Super Level at his age?

“No, it’s because I have a strong Soul-grade Seed and Domain,” Mo Fan said.

“Oh, I see! You are most likely the strongest Advanced Mage I have ever met, stronger than the old Hunter Masters too! I now understand why you’re bold enough to come here,” Lan Luo said.

Lan Luo was aware that Mo Fan had a Commander-level creature whose strength was already beyond their level. As such, she assumed Mo Fan’s Primary Element was the Summoning Element. She thought he would rely on his wolf to fight, but it turned out he did not even need the Summoned Beast’s help!

He had only drawn Star Patterns to cast his spells. He had yet to use a single Advanced Spell!

Anyone could tell how crazily strong his Intermediate Lightning Spells were, which meant his Advanced Lightning Spells would be even crazier!

They started hearing more sounds coming from nearby after advancing less than three kilometers.

The girls were not as intimidated after witnessing Mo Fan’s strength. They continued to move forward.

The creatures could hide or come out all they wanted. Either way, the group was still going to reach their den.

“We’re close,” Mo Fan said.

The presence of the Seal of Darkness was stronger, indicating that the creature he had marked was just ahead.

The Hillmen were quite intelligent. Even though a huge number of them had gotten close to the group of humans, they still showed no intention of attacking recklessly.

“Holy crap! Everyone, look up!” Zhao Manyan suddenly yelled.

The yell gave the girls a great fright. It even scared some of the Hillmen that were hiding in the surroundings, who immediately fled for their lives…

Mo Fan lifted his gaze. He was struggling to see the sky because of the tall grass around. However, he soon noticed a huge canopy at the edge of his vision!

The canopy was extremely tall. It felt like it was as tall as the tallest mountain in the area. Mo Fan was wondering if it was a tree growing at the top of a mountain. However, as he spread the grass blocking his view, he realized the tree was a lot bigger than he had imagined!

As he continued to clear the view, he gasped when he saw the canopy extending into the distance without a visible end to it!

“The…the tree is too… f**king huge!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

Mo Fan quickly jumped into the air and stood on the grass that was blocking his view.

When Mo Fan reached the top, he subconsciously held his breath. His field of view was dominated by a huge towering tree located at the center of the valley. The canopy he saw was not even the tree’s uppermost branches. They were just the lowest branches of the tree, and only consisted of a tiny portion of the actual tree. What he could not see before was a trunk as huge as a mountain, with branches intertwining with one another. It was like a huge curtain connecting the ground and the sky!

Mo Fan suddenly realized why the Yu Grass only reached their ankles like normal weeds in other places, but was taller than humans in this valley!

The Giant Purple Linden here was so huge that it was able to reach the sky and veil it…

Even when Mo Fan jumped into the air, he still could not see the entire tree!

Mo Fan had been to many places, but it was definitely his first seeing something so spectacular. He could no longer describe it as a tree if it was like a small world on its own. The trunk would be like climbing a mountain…

“No wonder the Dandelion Grass puffballs are all heading toward the valley. Who would have thought there was such a sacred Giant Purple Linden here outside Mount Kunyu. I believe the previous ruler of the outer Mount Kunyu was living in it…” Lingling murmured.

The tree was hidden in a spacious valley deep in the wild. There had always been rumors of a wonderland in Yantai. The Giant Purple Linden could easily be considered a great wonder. It was like the Roots of Heaven!

“Mo Fan, how many demon crests do you think are on the tree?” Zhao Manyan asked.

“Are you seriously worried about that now? Do you think a tree of this level will only have demon crests on it?” Mo Fan replied.

“It’s really something. If the ruler of the mountain didn’t die, I can’t imagine how many years it would take for us to find the tree. I feel like we could even build a whole city on it!” Zhao Manyan exclaimed.

“I can’t help but wonder how many demon creatures are living around the tree… I’m afraid it’s on the scale of a horde!” Mo Fan shouted, studying the branches of the tree.

Lingling mentioned that every Giant Purple Linden was like an ecosystem for demon creatures. Many creatures of different levels would reside around it. With that in mind, the enormous Giant Purple Linden was easily a city of demon creatures, a paradise for them!

Should they even bother entering a place like that?

Could a few Advanced Mages really stand a chance against the demon creatures here?

Mo Fan suddenly lost the confidence he had displayed when he said that he was going to wipe out the Hillmen’s den after seeing the magnificent tree.

A human was not even the size of a little bug compared to the tree!

“I believe the Hillmen have only occupied one of the branches as their den, since they have come from other places. It’s unlikely they could claim a huge territory unless they have a Ruler-level Hillman with them…” Lingling said.

Shennongjia was the real place of origin of the Hillmen. Lingling did not believe they would find a Ruler-level Hillman here.

If there really was a Ruler-level Hillman, Lingling would have no choice but to alert her grandfather. Only people at her grandfather’s level were capable of dealing with the matter. The Hillmen butchered humans to entertain themselves. The human leaders would never allow a Ruler-level Hillman to stay so close to a city!
