Translated by XephiZ

Mo Fan, Yan Shi, Shao Ru, and Zhao Manyan continued on their way to the Giant Purple Sacred Linden. Yan Shi explained the details of what happened along the journey.

Thirty years ago, the horde of White Magic Falcons was invading the Giant Purple Sacred Linden. Yan Shi and a bunch of Super Mages realized that the war between the demon creatures was going to endanger Yan Shi and the other cities nearby. The military, government, Magic Association, Hunter Union, and the alliance of renowned clans would not allow the horde of White Magic Falcons to set up a new kingdom. They decided to take the initiative instead, and help the Giant Purple Sacred Linden drive the White Magic Falcons away…

The blood that was shed during the battle filled up the valley. Corpses stacked up like hills as the humans, the White Magic Falcons, and the horde of demon creatures on the Giant Purple Sacred Linden fought to their death.

After an epic battle that lasted for ten days, the alliance between the humans and the demon creatures on the Giant Purple Sacred Linden managed to drive the White Magic Falcons back. However, when the White Magic Falcons was about to suffer a humiliating defeat, the Moon Moth Phoenix showed up together with her army of moths…

The moths stopped the humans from killing the White Magic Falcons. They were crazily attacking the horde on the Giant Purple Sacred Linden. They stood on the opposite side of the humans. Once again, the scale started to lean in the opposite direction.

The authorities placed the blame on Yan Shi since she had been telling them that the Totem Beasts were always on their side. However, the Moon Moth Phoenix’s actions greatly infuriated the leaders…

Yan Shi was left with no choice. She used her power as a Totem Guardian to summon the Moon Moth Phoenix…

The Moon Moth Phoenix did not reject her call. Little did she know, she had walked right into a deadly trap that Yan Shi had set up for her!

The Moon Moth Phoenix suffered serious injuries. Everyone saw her body disintegrating into tiny little moths and flying away into the distance. Yan Shi regained the trust of the human leaders, yet she was deeply in remorse ever since. She left the scene and stopped being a Mage after the war.

In the end, the horde of the Giant Purple Sacred Linden won the war. The humans managed to stop the rise of the kingdom of White Magic Falcons too. The White Magic Falcons fled to the north after suffering great losses and struggled on in the Nanling Mountains. They had only recovered in the last few years.

Since the Giant Purple Sacred Linden helped them to drive the White Magic Falcons away, the authorities signed a pact to keep the secret, allowing the Giant Purple Sacred Linden to stay in Outer Mount Kunyu. The humans would not disturb it. The Giant Purple Sacred Linden seemed to have some level of intelligence, too. It restricted the demon creatures in Outer Mount Kunyu from invading human territories, too.

Therefore, for the past thirty years, Yantai had only needed to worry about the sea monsters. There was no danger inland!

“So you’re saying that if Tong Shang insists on proceeding with his plan, the Giant Purple Sacred Linden might kill them all instead?” Mo Fan said.

The smell of blood was stronger the closer they were to the Giant Purple Sacred Linden. Mo Fan could already imagine what the place would look like. He had complicated feelings.

Yan Shi shook her head and said, “No, we’ve been played like a fiddle all along!”

Mo Fan did not understand what Yan Shi meant by it. Who was playing them like a fiddle?

The strong smell of blood lingered in the air. The group split the tall grass apart and saw the blurry yet magnificent figure of the Giant Purple Sacred Linden before them.

Mo Fan and Yan Shi picked up their pace. When they finally reached the trunk was, they halted in their track and glanced ahead with wide eyes!

There were dead bodies covered in blood everywhere!

They all died in different ways, but not a single corpse was intact. Their body parts were scattered on the roots, the slopes, and on the ground. Some were dangling from the branches above, with blood dripping down like a string…

Mo Fan felt like he was suffocating!

He initially thought only some of the people would die after the group was punished by the Giant Purple Sacred Linden for their greed. He never expected to see every soldier, Hunter, and personnel of the government lying dead under the tree. The sight was worse than seeing the Hillmen killing humans brutally.

“They are all… dead?” Mo Fan stood still. His heart was rolling with shock, fear, and anger!

“We were still too late.” Yan Shi wore an expressionless face, yet her eyes were burning with rage.

So many people, including the impressive Nie Lengshan, had died!

Captain Sun was dead, Tong Shang was dead, their men were dead…

Wang Dakuo was dead, Wang Hua’s head was lying beside Chen Binbin’s severed limbs. Even the selfish girl called Hu Duo was dead. She was hanging on a branch with a hollow stomach…

Not a single person was alive!

It was a terrifying, hellish sight. Even Mo Fan, who had seen lots of deaths and gore, felt his soul trembling upon witnessing it!

Mo Fan lifted his gaze and looked at the Giant Purple Sacred Linden covered in blood. For some reason, Mo Fan was having trouble breathing inside the shadow projected by the giant tree. It felt like a devil whose claws stained in blood were looming over him…

“Let’s go!” Yan Shi yelled.

Mo Fan was still in shock. He soon heard Yan Shi yelling again.

“Quick, the devil won’t let anyone that sees its true nature live!” Yan Shi said.

Mo Fan turned around and started running. He could feel the devil’s bloody claw coming down at him. He was about to turn into one of the sacrifices!

A sharp branch sprang down from the tree and stabbed in the direction that Mo Fan was running to, like a spear of judgment from the Heavens. Mo Fan subconsciously held his breath, feeling the strong sense of death approaching!

Mo Fan split into four shadows, flying into different directions like birds.

The branch plunged right into the soil. Even the ground could not endure its strength. Mo Fan shivered in fear when he saw the branch landing less than half a meter away from the shadow bird he had turned into!

If he was not on alert, the branch could have easily nailed him to death. Even the Black Snake Armor stood no chance against it.

“Dark Noble Mantle!”

Mo Fan realized the extreme danger he was in. He quickly activated the mantle to conceal himself in the shadows…

However, the move that Mo Fan was extremely proud of was like an amusing child’s play in front of the devil. Another branch came down from above and tore Mo Fan’s clothes apart as he barely dodged it!

Mo Fan did not dare waste a second further. He quickly gathered his focus and glanced upward at the tree. However, he immediately stood still as if he was struck by lightning in the following second!

The branches started falling again. It was not like Mo Fan was not trying to dodge them, but he seriously had no clue where he should be dodging into. The Devil Tree Spikes densely covered an area over a thousand meters in the air. He could barely see any gaps between them. They were descending faster than a human could think. Even if Mo Fan cast Blink a few times consecutively, he would still be turned into mincemeat!

It was like the Heavens had sentenced him to death. It was utterly meaningless to try and escape it.

The difference in strength was just too huge!
