113: Treant race pledges allegiance

"Brother Xingyu, these people have ill intentions. Should we deal with them?"

Wang Chiyao frowned slightly.

These people deliberately led the Treant Clan to charge at them, clearly intending to use them as a shield.

She had seen legends about the Treant Clan on forums before, which claimed they were impervious to blades and spears… Although she didn't quite believe it, she also didn't want to be exploited by others.

"Let the Net Spiders stop them, but don't attack the Treant Clan!"

Lin Xingyu nodded.

Recently, the Treant Clan had been hyped up as mythical, and he also wanted to see what was really going on.

It was said that as long as one didn't provoke the Treant Clan, they wouldn't attack.

They could wait for the Treant Clan to deal with those people and then collect the bodies.

At Wang Chiyao's command, the Net Spiders all spewed out silk, entangling those people.

"What the hell, why are there so many spiders?"

"They're not living creatures, they're Puppets!"

"We've been ambushed!"

"Quick, dodge!"

The Blazing Flame Gang members were caught off guard and immediately fell into disarray.

Despite their desperate dodging, many were still entangled by the spider silk, and their speed drastically decreased.

"No! I don't want to die!"

"Help me…"

Those entangled by the spider silk were quickly overtaken by the Treant Clan and died on the spot.

The red-faced man turned a deaf ear to the cries of his subordinates behind him, focused only on his frantic escape.

He wasn't cold-blooded, but he was powerless to help.

If he managed to escape, he would definitely take good care of their families!

As he was fleeing for his life, a streak of light flashed by.

Immediately after, his vision went black, and he tumbled to the ground… Lin Xingyu retrieved his star ray shuttle and turned his gaze to the Treant Clan.

After the targets were eliminated, the Treant Clan stopped their pursuit and stood motionless in place.

Lin Xingyu and the others exchanged glances.

"Brother Xingyu, have they crashed?"

Wang Chiyao's eyes widened, her face full of curiosity.

"They're really huge! All giant warriors, they'd be amazing for defending a city!"

Wang Ledian looked at the Treant Clan, marveling.

These Treant Clan were born guardians.

Now that the Treant Clan had appeared, could the Elf Race be far behind?

It was said that the Elf Race were all super stunning… Just then, the Treant Clan moved again.

They lined up in two rows, leaving a long passage.

At the same time, their branches swayed, striking a peculiar pose.

It seemed to be some kind of special ritual.

Seeing the Treant Clan's actions, the group became even more puzzled.

"Welcome, Mother Goddess!"

A deep and resonant voice emanated from within the Treant Clan, echoing throughout the jungle.

"Holy crap, you scared me to death! So they can talk!"

The sudden voice startled Wang Ledian.

"Mother Goddess? They must be calling me!"

Wang Chiyao thought to herself, delighted.

She was the only girl present, so who else could it be?

Perhaps, in her previous life, she truly was an Empress.

And these Treant Clan were her subordinates from her past life.

Thinking of this, Wang Chiyao excitedly looked at Lin Xingyu.

"Brother Xingyu, let's go take a look!"

Seeing Wang Chiyao's eager expression, Lin Xingyu nodded.

They had an Inner World and the blessing of the Tower of Rebirth, so even if they encountered danger, they could handle it calmly.

Moreover, he was also a little curious about what these Treant Clan were going to do.

"First, collect these bodies, don't waste them!"

The group walked over and tentatively collected the bodies on the ground.

Seeing that the Treant Clan didn't stop them, they finally relaxed.

They proceeded along the "corridor" formed by the Treant Clan.

There were many Treant Clan, and at regular intervals, a Treant Clan stood by the roadside, guiding them.

Following this special path, the group eventually arrived before an altar.

"Brother Yu, look at the patterns on those totem poles, don't they look a lot like the World Tree?"

Wang Ledian pointed at the totem poles and said.

"They do indeed look very similar. The only difference is that they are covered with colorful fruits."

Lin Xingyu nodded.

Besides the white evolution fruit and purple apostle fruit, he also saw many other colored fruits.

Perhaps it was the World Tree in its mature form.

Wang Chiyao suddenly realized something, her face flushing crimson.

The "Mother Goddess" these Treant Clan spoke of should be the World Tree.

She had just… She secretly observed everyone's reactions.

Seeing that they were all captivated by the scene before them, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, several even larger Treant Clan appeared in front.

They bowed to Lin Xingyu:

"Welcome back, Mother Goddess!"

...Half an hour later, Lin Xingyu and the others stared dumbfounded at the Grand Elder of the Treant Clan.

"You mean, you want to follow me?"

Lin Xingyu pointed to himself.

"Yes, Mother Goddess!"

The Grand Elder's tone was steady.

"We are deeply bound to this Secret Realm. While protected, we are also restricted by the Secret Realm and cannot leave."

"We long to Breakthrough to the fourth stage, we long to leave this Secret Realm and break through existing shackles!"

They had been in the Secret Realm for countless years.

Now, the Secret Realm showed signs of decay, and if this continued, they would also perish with the decline of the Secret Realm.

For the continuation of their race, they had to make a change.

And the arrival of the Mother Goddess was their opportunity.

Only the Mother Goddess could lead them away and remove the Secret Realm's restrictions.

Once they missed this chance, who knew how many more years they would have to wait.

Perhaps, there would be no more opportunities.

"Alright, gather, I'll take you out!"

Lin Xingyu nodded in agreement.

He planned to take in the Treant Clan and settle them in his Inner World.

The Treant Clan were skilled at cultivating plants and could help him manage his Inner World.

Moreover, their combat power was considerable, and they could also follow him into battle.

Seeing Lin Xingyu agree, the Treant Grand Elder was overjoyed.

An invisible wave of Qi spread from him, permeating the entire jungle.

Clan members from all directions converged towards the altar.

The Treant Clan had a total of 1321 members, divided into two types.

One type was the "Vine Guards" who attacked enemies by entanglement, and the other was the "Explosive Fruit Throwers" who threw bomb fruits.

Aside from their slow movement speed, they had almost no weaknesses, making them natural "defensive towers."

Not only that, but they also possessed the talent of Plant Affinity, capable of accelerating the growth of surrounding plants.
