382: Bakayaluo, the sacred tree will not be given to you

In a dim room, the President sat behind a massive desk, his face grim, his eyes gleaming with avarice.

He had just learned of the mysterious Pearl in Amazon, and the news made his heart race; he immediately realized it was a huge opportunity.

He unhesitatingly dispatched an elite team to Amazon, ordering them to find the mysterious Pearl at all costs.

“At all costs, you must bring it back…”

Before he could finish, he was abruptly interrupted by Camilla, who suddenly pushed open the door.

His subordinate nodded to Camilla, then, with keen discernment, immediately left.

The President frowned, looked at Camilla, and asked faintly, “What is it? Why are you coming to me in such a hurry?”

Seeing her subordinate leave, Camilla immediately slapped the table and exclaimed in surprise, “Dad, Li Mu achieved Immortal Ascension!!”

The President stood up in shock, “What?”

Camilla repeated, “Li Mu achieved Immortal Ascension!!”

The President immediately fell back into his chair, his face filled with disbelief.

“He… truly… achieved… Immortal Ascension…”

“Yes, Li Mu just updated his diary content, and the various changes happening on Earth are also due to the world’s dimension upgrading caused by Li Mu's Immortal Ascension.”

“Could it be?”

“I know what you're thinking, Dad. Alas, whether it's the Pearl from the flower pistil in Amazon, or the miraculous Great Tree currently appearing in Sakura Country…

These are all appearing because the world's dimension has upgraded. Currently, we don't know if we can control these sudden appearances. I suggest we don't act rashly for now.”

“But… the area near the flower pistil in Amazon is full of Yao Beasts, and according to information sent back by satellite, the cultivation Realms of the Yao Beasts are unclear. Even if a special team leads, supplemented by the weapons of the elite team, we might still be completely wiped out.”

“Camilla, do you know what you’re saying?”

The President roared furiously, “This is a rare opportunity! If we can obtain that Pearl, perhaps we can gain even greater power.”

Camilla retorted, “But the risk is equally immense, Father. We know very little about the situation after the world dimension upgrade, and acting blindly could lead to catastrophic consequences.”

The President was silent for a moment, then finally said, “I will consider your opinion, but at the same time, we must be prepared. Send out reconnaissance teams to gather more intelligence on those Yao Beast creatures. Once we have enough confidence, we will decide whether to act.”

Camilla nodded, knowing this was the most prudent approach for now.

Although she still had concerns, she also understood that caution was necessary when facing unknown powers.

Although the satellite images could not directly show the cultivation Realms of the Yao Beasts, they clearly showed their level of importance placed on the Pearl, which was enough to prove that these Yao Beasts were definitely not easy to provoke.

If they acted rashly, the consequences would likely be unimaginable.

Just then, the President and Camilla also received news about the Divine Tree in Sakura Country.

Recalling the rumors they had heard earlier about the appearance of a Divine Tree in Dragon Country, a surge of excitement welled up in both their hearts.

They immediately ordered their subordinates hidden in Sakura Country to send back detailed information about the Divine Tree to the United States as soon as possible.

When the towering, tree-like Divine Tree appeared on the screen, the President was uncontrollably excited, while Camilla was utterly astonished.

“Hahaha… there really is a Divine Tree in the world! So what if Dragon Country has many powerful Cultivators? As long as we can seize the Divine Tree in Sakura Country and the Pearl in the Amazonian flower pistil, the United States will definitely not lose to them!”

The President said smugly.

He knew that if they could successfully acquire these treasures, the United States would rise and become the Dominator of the world.

Camilla looked at the crystal-clear fruits hanging on the Divine Tree on the screen, and the image of a small person, estimated to be twenty centimeters tall, sleeping, and she fell silent.

She understood the President’s thoughts, but looking at the video of the Divine Tree, she felt that something was not quite right.

She frowned and said, “Father, this Divine Tree is located within Sakura Country’s territory. If we demand they hand it over, it might not be an easy task.”

The President sneered, disdainfully saying, “They are just a running dog of our United States. Can a dog refuse its master’s command?”

His tone was full of arrogance and confidence.

Then, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he continued, “If they really dare to be so stubborn, then I’ll just have to let them personally experience the huge gap between Cultivators and ordinary people.

At that time, they will know who the true Dominator is!”

He began to issue orders to Sakura Country, demanding that they hand over the Divine Tree.

His tone was strong and unequivocal; he knew Sakura Country would not easily yield, but he also had enough means to force them into submission.

………

On the other side, Sakura Country.

The leader of Sakura Country joyfully looked at the Divine Tree before him, sweeping away all previous unpleasantness.

Rivers turning into Yao Beasts, Cities being ravaged by Yao Beasts, the United States refusing to help…

None of this mattered. As long as the Divine Tree was there, what did a mere difficulty matter to Sakura Country?

“Haha… Heaven bless my Sakura Country…”

Just as the Sakura Country leader was laughing wildly, a subordinate approached him with a phone.

He whispered into his ear, “Leader, the Ugly Country President is calling.”

The Sakura Country leader’s smile froze on his face, and then he took the phone from his subordinate.

“Hello, Moshi Moshi.”

“Impossible, this is Heaven’s blessing for my Sakura Country, how could we just hand it over to you…”

Before he could finish, he slammed the phone onto the ground, and in an instant, the phone shattered into pieces, scattered on the ground.

His face was flushed with anger, and as he vigorously wiped the sweat from his forehead, he cursed loudly, “Baka! Those Ugly Country people are truly too much!

Last time we asked for their assistance in killing Yao Beasts, they completely ignored us, and now they are so shameless because they want the Divine Tree!”

“Baka… Baka…”

The subordinate looked down at his shoes, not daring to make a sound, fearing that the leader’s wrath would turn on him.

“Heh… You, go get a cloud ladder, then pick a spirit fruit for me.” The leader’s voice was cold and deep, carrying an irresistible tone of command.

“Yes.”

The subordinates quickly responded and turned to leave, preparing to do as the leader requested.

Soon, a cloud ladder was brought over, and the Self-Defense Force captain ascended the ladder truck, carefully approaching the Divine Tree.

He reached out, trying to pick a spirit fruit, but just then, his gaze was drawn to the small elf-like person next to the spirit fruit.

The small elf-like person was delicate and adorable, exuding a charming aura. The Self-Defense Force captain’s attention was completely captivated by it, and he forgot his original task.

He couldn't help but reach out, wanting to touch this mysterious little person.

However, when his fingers lightly touched the little person, a powerful force suddenly erupted, sending him flying backward.

His body tumbled in the air, finally falling heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone. They watched in horror as everything unfolded before their eyes, not knowing how to react.

Everyone was astonished, and the Sakura Country leader was completely bewildered.

Although he didn't know what had happened, he had been tormented by Yao Beasts for so long that he was already unable to withstand any more shock or stimulation.

So, he unhesitatingly pointed to the Self-Defense Force members beside him and shouted, “Baka… why aren’t you coming to protect me!”
