Chapter 4494 The Maternal Tree

"Human brat, what has the wood puppet race ever done to you?

Why did you break into our sacred area? What exactly do you want?"

one of the governing gods of the wood puppet race shouted at Austin sternly.

The eight governing gods of the wood puppet race were all there, staring at Austin with their piercing green eyes.

They were so exasperated by the thought that even though all of them worked together, they were still not a match for Austin.

They had already tried attacking him using their physical strength, mind power, and even the law of life, but none of them worked out.

The three most powerful talents of the wood puppet race were rendered useless before Austin. He was just too powerful for them.

Therefore, at this point, the eight governing gods of the wood puppet race were at a loss and didn't know what else to do.

"All I want is to see the maternal tree of your race. Give me what I want and all of this shall stop.

I don't mean to harm you in any way. I just want to confirm something,"

Austin said with a straight face.

"No freaking way!

The maternal tree is the most sacred existence for the wood puppet race!

No outsider is allowed in its presence!

Now, get the hell out of here!"

one of the governing gods roared in anger.

"I don't think you understand your position here. I won't leave until I see the maternal tree and that's final,"

Austin retorted as his gaze swept across the governing gods.

"Gnome, let's go."

With a wave of Austin's hand, a force of space and time lifted the gnome up. Then, they ignored the governing gods and headed for the maternal tree.

With his incredible bodily movement skill, Austin moved at a very rapid rate. With just a single step, he disappeared and reappeared at a void in the distance.

"Stop it, brat!"

"What are you doing? Stop him!"

The eight governing gods of the wood puppet race all turned pale at the sight of Austin's astonishing speed.

Boom! Boom!

In a flash, numerous green energy columns flew across the sky and dashed towards Austin's back.

However, without turning his head, Austin swung his sword backward to block all the attacks that were hurled towards him.

"What the hell? How could such a terrifying young human suddenly appear and wreak havoc everywhere?"

The eight governing gods were extremely anxious and upset.

"The fact remains that we must defend the maternal tree with all our might, even at the cost of our lives!"

With that, the eight governing gods moved out and chased after Austin.

Boom! Boom!

They began taking out their heavy weaponry with ferocious power. They let their weapons roar as they smashed them towards Aust

ad," the eight governing gods responded as they stood in the front row, facing Austin.

The maternal tree was very sacred and important to all the members of the wood puppet race.

It was only natural for them to risk their lives for it since this was where they obtained their lives.

Once something bad happened to it, their whole race would lose its foundation.

"Haven't you learned your lesson yet? Do not test my patience. You know that the consequences would be too much for each and every one of you to bear,"

Austin warned in a low voice.

Then, as he spoke, he released his spiritual sense to perceive and examine the maternal tree.

"What is this?"

He clearly saw that the huge tree seemed to have a vital consciousness of life.

"Don't threaten us, brat! You better get out of here before things get messy!"

The eight governing gods stepped forward, showing their determination to protect the maternal tree with all their might.

"You're not that smart, aren't you?

Fine. Don't blame for what's about to happen. You've brought this to yourselves,"

Austin sighed and eventually prepared to make his move.

Since he actually had no enmity towards them, he didn't want to hurt them needlessly.

However, he was pushed to a situation where he had no choice but to force them to move aside.

"Set up the array! We're going to eliminate the enemy!"

the eight governing gods roared in unison.

Immediately after, countless members of the wood puppet race began to set up enormous arrays.

Most of these arrays utilized the principle of the law of life.

One after another, big arrays overlapped and surrounded the maternal tree. Each one emitted strong defensive power.

In just a short while, it was inevitable that a fierce battle would break out.
