Faced with Austin's incomparable powers,
the maternal tree was both frightened and angry.
Now that it had realized that it was no match for the young human in front of it, it didn't know what to do.
In its panic, it went berserk and shrieked,
"I'll fight you to the death, human brat!"
Its branches shot out and pierced through the void one after another,
constantly aiming for Austin and trying to attack him.
At the same time, green chains of law zoomed towards Austin like a swarm of locusts,
intending to bind him.
However, Austin was continuously shooting chains contained the power of the law of reincarnation that were densely packed, attacking the maternal tree.
Compared to the green chains released by the maternal tree, these chains were much more powerful.
In fact, Austin had cultivated the law of reincarnation to such an extent that it was only slightly inferior to the level of the ultimate law, which was almost unthinkable for anyone else.
Therefore, he was by no means weaker than the maternal tree. Even though he was fighting against such a powerful ancient being, he was not at a disadvantage. In fact, he had the upper hand in this battle.
The maternal tree knew this as well, and grew more and more hysterical.
"Get out of here!" it shrie
maternal tree explained humbly.
But Austin sneered in response.
"Do you think I care whether your race goes extinct or not?
All I know is that your wood puppet race provoked me first."
Feeling helpless, the maternal tree asked,
"Fine, then what do you want? I'll give you anything."
Austin's face relaxed, and a smirk appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Tell me, why should I let you go?"
After a moment of silence, the maternal tree solemnly declared,
"You want the secret of mind power and the law of life of our wood puppet race."
"Not bad. You're smart at least,"
Austin said with a faint smile.
"The secret of mind power and the law of life are the inheritance of our wood puppet race,"
the maternal tree stated hesitantly. Naturally, it was reluctant to give the inheritance to Austin, even if it was its last resort.
"I'm not forcing you to do anything.
But you have to pay the price for provoking me one way or another,"
Austin said flatly.
The maternal tree fell into silence again.
Then, it looked into the distance at the wood puppets. Slowly, its face hardened, and it turned back to Austin with its mind made up.
"All right.
I'll do it.
Since it's our fault,
I'll give you the secret of mind power and the law of life."
