Chapter 691: The tree

Shadowslash continue on his explanation "I have been gathering information about the Supreme Poison Clan while your group is resting but I have never thought that there are still many members of their clan residing in the Poison Forest."

Meowy nodded, she knew this because her clan and the Supreme Poison Clan were once allies, she also knew that the other members of the clan were killed by Vlaze and the others because of their decision to stay loyal to her clan.

"Back to the topic at hand, Vlaze whom was now being controlled by the One Hundred Poison Worm is now slowly expanding his territory and judging from where he expands, it would only be a matter of time before he would reach this place."

Lionheart snorted and said "Even those that have awakened their Saint Intent or veteran Saints doesn't dare to enter this place because of the curse. A new broken through Saint coming to this place is nothing short of a death sentence for him."

The three leaders of Mortal City also agree to this, even Meowy and the two guardians agree to what Lionheart had said, the legend of Mortal City is very well known in Saint Monster World.

Shadowslash sighed and said "If it was only Vlaze I wouldn't worry but the One Hundred Poison Worm is the natural nemesis of the curse."

Instantly the entire room became silent as the expression of everyone became blanked, they are too shocked to process his words but after a couple of seconds chaos immediately descended on the room.

"Silence!" Seeing that the three leader of Mortal City is panicking he frowns, he couldn't help but feel disappointed upon seeing their reaction, he could only shout at them to calm them down.

He then looks at the three people in disdain before saying "The curse of this city actually isn't any curse but just an ability to help something grow, what it absorbed isn't energy but vitality of a living being."

He looks at the root of the tree in front of him, the others follows his gaze and lock on a giant green orb that looks like a beast core.

Instantly the expression of Meowy and Lionheart changed, Lionheart stumbles down and drops into the ground, his expression is that of disbelief.

Meowy also has the same expression, upon seeing the expression of the two Shadowslash couldn't help but nod in satisfaction, he had believed that these two would get it in the first try but seeing and believing is two different thing.

"Yes what the two of you are thinking is correct, the thing that is causing the strange event happening in this city is exactly this giant tree."

This time the others that didn't get what he was saying earlier finally realised why he look at the green orb in front of them.

They were frozen in shock, Lionheart recovers from his disbelief as he quickly got up and anxiously asks "This couldn't be real! This tree is the very thing that bless this city when it grew here."

The three leaders nodded agreeing to what he had said, upon seeing his expression Shadowslash couid only sigh as he pats his shoulder and explained "This tree is the thing that granted the people of this world access to higher plane of existence, it pierces through the void and connected this world to other plane of existence."

This time the people inside the room became tongue tied, Shadowslash laughs in a bitter manner and said "If I didn't done any experiment and investigation about this I wouldn't dare believe what I just have said."

What the people inside the room didn't know is that he is now planning to climb this tree to go to a higher plane of existence but from what Hentai have gathered, this feat is near impossible.

Meowy suddenly remembers something and she couldn't help but shout "This might be the world tree!"

The people inside the room turns to her, even Shadowslash is very curious about what she knew, Lionheart knew a lot of thing but all of his information came from this city so it wasn't complete.

Meowy knew that she had to explain so she quickly stood up and pats the dust from her clothes and started explaining "The world tree is considered a void class tree, only rune and void beasts are able to harm them."

Just as she said this her expression immediately changed, the One Hundred Poison Worm is a rune beast!

Exactly the nemesis of void class beings, Shadowslash knew this already because he had brought a sample of the poison that the One Hundred Poison Worm have refined and he clearly felt that the tree is wary of it.

Seeing her stop he knew that he no longer need to explain them why a newly broken through crazy Saint is a threat to this city.

Lionheart also realised this, Meowy snap out of her thought and became embarrassed that she had stop mid way from her explanation.

She coughs lightly trying to hide her embarrassment and continue "A void class item is considered one of the strongest being or entity but their main purpose is to connect a world to a higher plane of existence."

She then looks at the giant core in front of her and sighed in amazement "I just never thought that the so called curse land would actually the birthplace of this magnificent tree."

Shadowslash then grins and said "What do you think will happen if the other Supreme Tribes would hear that the very tree that made it possible for this world to be connected with a higher plane of existence is now endanger?"

Meowy's eyes lits up when she heard this, she couldn't help but tremble in excitement, she knew just how much Supreme Tribes treasure the items they have received from the higher plane of existence.

A world is able to give birth to a Saint but to increase his or her strength the Saint must need to go to a higher plane of existence.

Her Devil Cat Tribe have declined because most of the higher ups went to the Monster Plane, the higher plane of existence that their world is connected in.

Just for the information about the treasure that appeared on Monster Plane, their clan risked it all and sent more than 90% of their force, this just clearly shows how much Saints and Xiantian Emperors covets the treasures of the higher plane.

But upon recalling this Meowy couldn't help but become despondent, Shadowslash doesn't blame her, he only asks "Is there any way to send message to other Supreme Tribes?"

Meowy nodded but a bitter smile appeared on her face, the two guardians might look calm and composed like two statues but in their eyes a flash of bitterness could be seen.

Meowy took a deep breath and explained "Because of the fact that the strength of all Supreme Tribes combined is nothing to the top powers on the higher plane of existence, we have decided to create an alliance to protect ourselves and this world."

"There are two way to send a message to other Supreme Tribe, the first way is the easiest, you only need to go to our territory on the higher plane and informed the stewards of the other Supreme Tribes there."

This is impossible for anyone in the city to achieve, Shadowslash could only smile bitterly when he heard this, he very much want to go to the higher plane and search for a way to return home.

"The second way is to use a Saint flare, it is a powerful energy blast that would inform the other tribe to call everyone to gather, this flare should only be used if this world is at stake."

Shadowslash immediately knew that only the second method is usable, Meowy also knew this and those inside the room also thought the same thing.

"The only thing is that, the Saint flare is inside my tribe's treasury and could only be accessed by me, the treasury is located in the Devil Cat Tribe territory."

Shadowslash then nodded and said "Yes, I have seen those red gates with a feral cat statue guarding it."

Hearing this Meowy and the two guardians became stunned, seeing their expression he smirks and said "Remember the time we first met?"

Of course the trio remember, they would never forgot how he easily kills one of the elders of the Supreme Poison Clan.

"Since you three remembers it, I think you should know that I have been searching for the pathway to enter the higher plane."

"During these past few months I have been investigating the Devil Cat Tribe territory, some measly poison wouldn't harm me."

Meowy and the two guardians were speechless, a measly poison! A poison that was created from a rune beast is called a measly poison.

If anyone heard this, they would definitely have the same reaction as them, Shadowslash continue "Don't worry, the One Hundred Poison Worm have just been born, even though it had fused with Vlaze and have now reached Saint Realm, it still haven't had enough time to refine it's poison."
