Supreme Tamer
Chapter 1170 - Chapter 1170 Chapter 1035

Chapter 1170: Chapter 1035 Chapter 1170: Chapter 1035 For the past fifty years, only one human had stolen a seed from the Life Tree, and then the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree exacted a price–a Soul Pet’s life!

Today, a half-demon broke in and swept away life fruits that had been forming for decades in one breath. What price would he have to pay to quell the wrath of the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree?

Dismemberment or tormenting the soul seemed inadequate, the roar of the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree thundered through this unique Ancient Land, awakening countless creatures originally in slumber within this special space. Amidst the darkness of night, they opened their eyes, looking toward the direction the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree called out from, quickly converging here from different places.

The intertwining roots in the sky receded like the tide; Mu Qingyi, riding the Crowned Phoenix King, was also released.

However, the situation was clearly not optimistic. As Mu Qingyi looked around, she was horrified to discover that a powerful presence surged from all directions, rapidly closing in on their location.

To the east, the torn night sky flickered with darkness like lightning–blinding at times, then vanishing without a trace, elusive in the dark. From afar, Mu Qingyi could not even discern what kind of creature it was.

To the south, towering tree canopies in the jungle were pushed aside like waves. A fierce Mad Beast charged over from the distant horizon, sweeping away all in its path.

To the west, within the ocean-like forest, a dark colossus slowly rose. The treetops, insurmountable to humans, were merely at its legs. Such a fearsome behemoth had also opened its daunting eyes, staring in their direction.

To the north, the jungle showed no oddities, yet it was exceptionally quiet, so quiet that not even the sound of insects or birds could be heard–a signal of danger. Mu Qingyi would never consider the north to be the safest place!

“Chu Mu, we’re surrounded. Creatures of great strength are closing in from all four directions!” Mu Qingyi communicated to Chu Mu using Mental Sound.

At that moment, Chu Mu had just struggled to escape from the endless tide of Demon Tree Emperors and had joined Mu Qingyi with much difficulty. But upon hearing Mu Qingyi’s words, Chu Mu’s heart sank once more. The Lost Wilderness Garden was simply an Ancient Fierce Land, harboring so many powerful creatures!

“Let’s go!” Knowing that they had definitely incurred universal outrage, Chu Mu didn’t dare to linger and fled straight toward the west.

Heading west meant going toward the dark colossus. When Mu Qingyi and Chu Mu got closer, they were terrified to discover that the colossus was actually an Empress Thunder Serpent, which had lived for countless years!

The Empress Thunder Serpent, with a body like lightning from the heavens, had an imposing and startling presence that could violently shake one’s soul–humans were vastly insignificant in front of it, akin to mere ants!

The Empress Thunder Serpent before them was clearly beyond the Emperor Level, having already broken through. In fact, the chances for an Empress Thunder Serpent to progress to the Dominator Level were much higher than other creatures. After all, reaching Tenth Rank strength made them Invincible Emperors, and after long periods of cultivation, it’s possible for them to step into the realm of Dominator Level.

The Empress Thunder Serpent’s massive size was nurtured even further by the Ancient environment, making it look shockingly enormous, literally a creature whose head could touch the sky and body could press down the continent.

Mu Qingyi, driving the Crowned Phoenix King, with the White Tiger following behind. The Crowned Phoenix King flapped its wings, its body wrapped in Golden Flames that kept expanding, gradually transforming into a colossus of a phoenix of flame!

As the golden phoenix shadow sped by, the Empress Thunder Serpent opened its gaping maw, and in an instant, the night thundered with lightning, a shocking purple bolt striking down, incessantly landing on the Crowned Phoenix King’s body of golden flame.

The purple arcs collided with the golden flames, becoming the most dazzling light in the Lost Wilderness Garden, the sky and ground even brighter than daylight!!

“Break through!” commanded Mu Qingyi to the Crowned Phoenix King.

The Crowned Phoenix King, without a pause in thought, continued to fly forward, bearing the brunt of the tremendous thunderbolts.

Following right behind, Chu Mu didn’t dare to reduce his speed as well, because less than ten kilometers behind him, a sea of Demon Trees, blocking out the sun and the sky, was swallowing up the area!!

It was hard to imagine, with not the slightest gap in the sky or ground, all filled with ferocious roots, and furiously growing and spreading out here. Billions of pupils interspersed among these daunting roots–Chu Mu had never before seen such a heart-stopping sight!!

Now Chu Mu finally understood why Old Lady Wen was so worried about him coming here to retrieve the Life Fruits–the Demonic Realm wasn’t as dangerous as this Ancient Fierce Land!

“Chu Mu… Chu Mu, how can there be so many Demon Trees!” Mu Qingyi look back at Chu Mu, but suddenly realized that the nightfall had long vanished, completely obscured by those ferociously intertwining roots.

It felt as if, behind them, there was a colossal alimentary canal composed of writhing intertwining roots, which had already devoured everything behind them.

This sight was so terrifying that Mu Qingyi’s face turned pale with fear. If they got entangled, they probably wouldn’t think of coming out again. She didn’t know how Chu Mu had managed to burst through the siege just now.

“Recall your White Tiger!” Chu Mu glanced at the White Tiger, which was about to fall into that consuming “alimentary canal,” and urgently said to Mu Qingyi.

Mu Qingyi hastily recited a Spell, recalling the White Tiger back into her Soul Pet Space.

Chu Mu knew that Zhan Ye would have very limited use against attacks from creatures of the Plant World, so after making Zhan Ye cling to the Empress Thunder Serpent to let himself and Mu Qingyi pass smoothly, he immediately recalled Zhan Ye back into the Soul Pet Space and didn’t dare to look back as he fled frantically to the west!

After breaking through the blockade of the Empress Thunder Serpent, Chu Mu landed on the Crowned Phoenix King, looking at Mu Qingyi, who had turned pale.

“You focus on the obstacles ahead, I’ll handle the rear,” Chu Mu said to Mu Qingyi.

Mu Qingyi nodded, and yet out of the corner of her eye, she could already see that the dense roots had closed in on both sides of the Crowned Phoenix King. It was as though they had fallen into the mouth of some sky-high monster, and a second’s halt would mean being swallowed whole!

Chu Mu recited the spell, and around his body, nine gigantic swords blazing with silver Demon Flame swiftly ignited!

These huge swords hovered and dangled, emanating an imposing aura. Mu Qingyi remembered this skill–it was precisely the Heaven and Earth Demon Sword Array that the White Nightmare Demon used to defeat the Taie Giant!

When Chu Mu deployed the Heaven and Earth Demon Sword Array, its power was evidently even stronger!

As Chu Mu finished his spell, he pointed with both hands to either side, and in an instant, those silver Demon Swords, spanning heaven and earth, chopped towards the surging tendrils of Mad Pythons on both sides!!

“Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The Demon Swords sped forth, severing all the tendrils, and they were quickly ignited by the Demon Flame, burning them to ashes in an instant!

The nine Demon Swords swept through indiscriminately, creating enough space for the Crowned Phoenix King in an instant. The obstructions and pressure the Crowned Phoenix King faced diminished significantly, and it flapped its wings at a high frequency, turning into a streak of golden light darting across the sky!

“Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss~~~~~~~~”

Suddenly, from the innumerable tendrils’ throat, a huge purple figure lashed out like lightning, with the snake fangs appearing right above the heads of the Crowned Phoenix King and Chu Mu, fiercely clamping down!!

Chu Mu had not expected the Empress Thunder Serpent, which had been thrown off, to chase after them along with the huge Demon Tree Corps. He hastily maneuvered the last Demon Sword to fly out from another space!

A ripple appeared in the space, and the last Demon Sword appeared right as the Empress Thunder Serpent opened its massive jaws, revealing its profound throat, then shot straight into the throat of the Empress Thunder Serpent!!

“Hiss, hiss, tear!!!!!!!!!!”

The Empress Thunder Serpent let out a cries, the Demonic Sword piercing through its open mouth before it could clamp shut, dragging it into the midst of the dense Demon Tree Corps.

Mu Qingyi had just sensed the ambush of the Empress Thunder Serpent, but she did not turn back and instead chose to trust Chu Mu.

Indeed, the threat was quickly eliminated, and Mu Qingyi let out a sigh of relief, turning all her attention forward, using her Soul Sense to perceive the enemy ahead and then carve out the best escape route.

Mu Qingyi had many Winged Soul Pets at her disposal, mastering their maneuvering capabilities, and the Crowned Phoenix King kept making rapid adjustments, fluctuating up and down while dodging sideways and flipping through the chaos of skills with agility!

When it came to aerial evasion abilities, Chu Mu naturally couldn’t match the Crowned Phoenix King’s profound mastery. At this moment, all of Chu Mu’s energy was focused on the endless, formidable army behind him, his hand movements and incantations hardly ceasing for a moment, for if he paused, those tendrils and wooden limbs would surely entangle him or the Crowned Phoenix King, and then drag them directly into the dreadful tengril calamity.

…

Since facing the Defector Girl head-on in Xiangrong City, Chu Mu hadn’t experienced such heart-pounding terror as he did tonight!

Fortunately, the speed of the Crowned Phoenix King was unmatched in the world. Coupled with the unstoppable explosive power of Chu Mu’s half-demonization, they eventually escaped from the ancient fierce land through numerous pursuers and blockades.

Strangely enough, after leaving the Lost Wilderness Garden, the creatures that had been surging like a tidal wave all receded, showing no intention of chasing after them.

Not being chased was a good thing. Chu Mu now had no time to ponder overmuch. Upon finding a concealed and safe place and setting up a protective barrier, he immediately lay on the ground, gasping for air with lingering fears, reliving those terrifying moments in his mind.

Mu Qingyi, too, was already drenched in cold sweat, sitting beside him, her towering chest still heaving up and down–it seemed she also had an unforgettable evening.

As for the Crowned Phoenix King, it had transformed into a Heavenly Bird, lying next to them like a breathless little sparrow,

“This place is definitively the first great perilous land for humans.” After catching his breath, Chu Mu glanced at the still petrified Mu Qingyi and said.

“Mhm, mhm.” Mu Qingyi nodded earnestly. Even though she loved adventures, she refused to visit the Lost Wilderness Garden again.

“Thankfully, we got quite a few Life Fruits. Let’s rest a bit, and then head back immediately,” Chu Mu said.

“How many exactly did you take?” Mu Qingyi asked.

“I don’t know. I just swept them up in one go. There must’ve been around a hundred, and I probably took just over half,” Chu Mu replied.

“That’s still more than fifty. Such Life Fruits are probably close to being Xuan Objects. You took away half of their treasures in one fell swoop; what a bandit,” Mu Qingyi glared at Chu Mu.

“Uh, let’s save Old Man Han first. We’ll divide the spoils later; they should be quite valuable,” Chu Mu said.

“Who wants to divide the spoils with you!” Mu Qingyi muttered, that fellow really knew how to pick his words.
