Chapter 203
Several decades ago.
The leader of the Azure Alliance had already faintly sensed the 'weakness' of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
However, at that time, they couldn't be sure, and couldn't confirm whether the so-called 'weakness' of the Ancestral Demon Tree was deliberately revealed.
It could have been a means to lure them into a trap.
Holding the World Sword, the leader of the Azure Alliance almost stood in an invincible position.
But the condition was that they couldn't stray too far from the Azure World. Once they exceeded a certain range, the power of the World Sword would weaken.
If the Ancestral Demon Tree had such intentions, the leader of the Azure Alliance naturally needed to be vigilant.
It was just now, during the fierce battle between themselves and the Ancestral Demon Tree in the Demon World, that he sensed it through the World Sword.
The leader of the Azure Alliance truly felt the weakness of the Ancestral Demon Tree.
Under the full force of the battle, coupled with the perception of the World Sword, the leader of the Azure Alliance was certain of their judgment.
"Everyone, the opportunity for my Azure World has come."
The leader of the Azure Alliance breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the twelve deputy leaders around them, and said seriously.
"Opportunity?"
"What opportunity?"
"Do you know what you're talking about, leader?"
The twelve deputy leaders were initially somewhat worried, but seeing the leader's expression and tone, they became curious.
"The Ancestral Demon Tree."
The leader of the Azure Alliance immediately expressed their judgment.
"For over three hundred years, the extraterritorial evil gods, with their own power, forcibly opened a battlefield outside my Azure World, dragging us into an endless war."
"Every moment, the strong in my Azure World are dying. It's just that with the evil gods watching, we never had the opportunity to destroy that battlefield."
The tone of the leader of the Azure Alliance was low, and the other twelve deputy leaders were the same.
For over three hundred years of war, their friends, relatives, and descendants had all been involved in the battlefield, most of them dying at the hands of the evil god puppets.
And, as long as that battlefield existed, the war could not be stopped.
They did want to destroy the battlefield, thus depriving the extraterritorial evil gods of the premise for initiating the battlefield. However, the strength of the Ancestral Demon Tree was too powerful.
Even if the leader of the Azure Alliance joined forces with the twelve deputy leaders, they could only barely contend with the Ancestral Demon Tree.
But now.
The Ancestral Demon Tree was inexplicably weakened, to the point where the leader of the Azure Alliance even had confidence in facing it alone.
In this way, there was a possibility of destroying the battlefield and ending the war.
As for the Ancestral Demon Tree? The leader of the Azure Alliance had no intention of killing it. That was unrealistic. They just planned to drive it away.
"But now."
"The opportunity has come, the opportunity to end the war once and for all."
The leader of the Azure Alliance's tone was excited as they looked at the twelve deputy leaders, speaking word by word.
"End the war?"
The hearts of the twelve deputy leaders were burning.
They had dreamed of ending the war, but for three hundred years, they had never seen hope.
Listening to the leader's words today, they were all excited.
"Next, I will use all the hidden power at my disposal to launch a counterattack." The leader of the Azure Alliance spoke, "If that evil god dares to intervene, leave it to me."
"You just need to occupy the entire battlefield and then destroy it."
"Yes." The twelve deputy leaders didn't hesitate.
The evil god's battlefield was located outside the world, presumably belonging to the evil god's stronghold and rear area.
As long as this evil god's battlefield was destroyed, if the Ancestral Demon Tree wanted to invade the Azure World, it could only rely on its own strength to directly confront the entire world, which was basically impossible.
And with the current strength of the Ancestral Demon Tree, under the vigilance of the strong in the Azure World, it was impossible to open a second battlefield.
In theory, as long as the evil god's battlefield was destroyed, the Ancestral Demon Tree would lose the ability to descend into the Azure World.
"Spread my decree, summon the ten great mountain beast kings, and prepare for the counterattack."
The leader of the Azure Alliance spoke.
The Ancestral Demon Tree invaded, and the power of the Azure World resisted.
But in fact, before the war began, many strong individuals in the Azure Alliance, including the leader, had made the worst assumptions.
That was the inability to resist the invasion of the Ancestral Demon Tree, and a frontal battlefield defeat.
The situation of the war would then spread to within the world.
Because of this, the leader of the Azure Alliance, even in the face of the most adverse war situation, did not summon the ten great mountain beast kings.
The ten great mountain beast kings were the last trump card of the Azure World, used to prevent the war from collapsing and the evil god puppets from entering the world.
At that time, the leader of the Azure Alliance and the ten great mountain beast kings had already set up a covenant.Findd new stories at novelhall.com
In times of need, the ten great mountain beast kings must obey the leader of the Azure Alliance's orders.
Of course.
The situation on the battlefield was ever-changing.
The ten great mountain beast kings were originally kept by the leader of the Azure Alliance as the last force of resistance.
But now, the leader of the Azure Alliance wanted to gather all the forces for a counterattack, so the relevant plans and preparations naturally needed to change.
For example, these mountain beast kings were a formidable force and could be used as the vanguard of the counterattack.
As long as the counterattack was successful and the evil gods were repelled, everything would be worth it.
"Yes."
"Yes."
"Monkey King?"
'Liao An' looked him up and down, nodding slightly.
Just from his momentum, the Monkey King surpassed ordinary cultivators who had just entered the sixth rank.
With its huge physique, coupled with the innate abilities of a beast, even a peak sixth-rank cultivator would not dare to underestimate it.
"Monkey King, we are here on the orders of the leader, commanding you and the other beast kings to go to the battlefield of the evil gods."
After 'Qu Zhuang' introduced 'Liao An', he didn't beat around the bush and directly transmitted to the Monkey King.
"Go to the battlefield of the evil gods?"
The Monkey King naturally wouldn't agree. At present, it only listened to Lin Yuan's orders. As for the so-called leader of the Azure Alliance, it naturally didn't care.
"Not going."
The Monkey King hummed.
"Not going?"
'Qu Zhuang' was stunned for a moment, seemed to realize something, and slapped his head.
"Almost forgot."
"This is the leader's decree. Now you should go, right?"
The thin old man took out a token with the words 'Azure Alliance' on it.
The token was only the size of a palm, but it emitted an inexplicable fluctuation that couldn't be duplicated or replaced.
"The leader's decree?"
The Monkey King carefully observed it for a moment.
Although it was parasitized by the demonic tree seed, it possessed memories from before and knew exactly what the leader's decree meant.
It was the highest authority in the Azure World, and any life form, whether human or beast, had to obey its command.
However, this didn't include the Monkey King.
The Monkey King only recognized Lin Yuan's orders.
"You wait here, I'll go contact the other kings."
The Monkey King closed its eyes and secretly contacted Lin Yuan.
Deepest part of the Black Mist Mountains.
Lin Yuan was still immersed in his understanding of the 'Way'.
Since the Ancestral Demon Tree released many of its restrictions on him, various innate abilities of the Ancestral Demon Tree had awakened in Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan hadn't rested much since then, always using his extraordinary comprehension to analyze them, extracting their essence and integrating it into his martial path evolution.
"I didn't expect that when the Ancestral Demon Tree lifted its restrictions, it would greatly enhance the abilities of the demonic tree seeds."
Lin Yuan sighed slightly.
The demonic tree seed was an ability that the subsidiary demon tree could naturally grasp.
It didn't need the permission of the Ancestral Demon Tree to grow to a certain stage and gain it.
Originally, Lin Yuan thought that the Ancestral Demon Tree didn't do anything special with the demonic tree seeds.
But now it seemed that he had underestimated the Ancestral Demon Tree's precautions against the subsidiary demon tree.
The most obvious manifestation was that after the Ancestral Demon Tree lifted its suppression on Lin Yuan, he not only awakened many abilities of the former but also greatly enhanced the demonic tree seeds that he already had.
This enhancement was comprehensive. With Lin Yuan's extraordinary comprehension, he perfected the demonic tree seeds, greatly enhancing their parasitic ability.
The parasitized beings were basically indistinguishable from their original selves, capable of deceiving others.
Similarly, with the perfected demonic tree seeds, Lin Yuan could only condense up to one hundred seeds at most.
And now, the number of perfected demonic tree seeds that Lin Yuan could condense had increased from one hundred to three hundred.
"Three hundred perfected demonic tree seeds. I don't need to be so picky anymore."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
So far, only seven beast kings had been parasitized by Lin Yuan.
As for others? Lin Yuan wasn't interested in the other beasts below the beast kings.
"Hmm?"
"Someone entered the Black Mist Mountains?"
Lin Yuan seemed to sense something and looked towards a direction.
Now, Lin Yuan's roots had spread throughout the entire Black Mist Mountains.
Anything that happened within this range couldn't escape Lin Yuan's perception.
The two senior elders of the Azure Alliance were sensed by Lin Yuan the moment they entered the Black Mist Mountains.
"Are those two six-rank elders of the Azure Alliance?"
Lin Yuan carefully sensed for a moment.
After a while.
The Monkey King transmitted a message to Lin Yuan through the demonic tree seed.
Saying that the two who entered the Black Mist Mountains were two senior elders of the Azure Alliance.
"Two six-rank elders of the Azure Alliance."
A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face.
It's such a coincidence! He was just thinking about finding new hosts, and now the senior elders of the Azure Alliance have come to him?
