Chapter 677: Pushed Over

Chapter 677: Pushed Over

Since Tourmaline had been instructed not to use the power of Laws for fear of destroying the veins and cores of Verdant Leaf World, she would have to change her strategy.

This demigod, summoned by Sein from the Magus World, remained focused on her mission to avenge him.

With Lorianne’s counsel in mind, Tourmaline advanced heavily toward Green Cypress Pine.

The landscape before them, once a thriving primeval forest, had been transformed into a churned expanse of mud, burying countless plant creatures.

Green Cypress Pine, the primary target of Tourmaline’s assault, did not succumb immediately.

Its remarkable vitality as a demigod afforded it some resilience, even as half of its root system was left exposed due to the rift valleys created by Tourmaline.

The remaining roots, though severely damaged, continued to anchor it firmly, allowing it to mount a defense.

A column of dark green energy gathered in the air, using the leaves of Green Cypress Pine as focal points. This was the very attack that had severely injured Sein before from afar.

Previously, the Green Cypress Pine had been unaware of Sein’s presence during its attack.

This time, however, it deliberately targeted Tourmaline, fully aware of her formidable strength and its own impending doom.

The Green Cypress did not fear death; it wished to unleash one last burst of verdant brilliance in its final moments!

A distinct hum of power and elemental vibrations filled the air.

The concentrated pillar of energy, imbued with all the vitality of Green Cypress Pine, launched directly at the charging Tourmaline.

This blast far surpassed the force that had once injured Sein—it was the Green Cypress Pine’s final assault.

“Watch out!” Sein reflexively raised his hand and yelled from the edge of the battlefield.

He was no longer lying on the stretcher as there was no longer any need for him to put on an act now that Tourmaline had joined the battlefield in the Verdant Leaf World.

Dressed in black magic robes, Sein looked similar to other mages, except for his face, which was still slightly pale.

His warning likely went unheard by Tourmaline, given the distance and the dragon turtle’s relentless charge toward her opponent.

Although its trunk was broken, the Green Cypress Pine was still alive.

Yet, the outcome of this conflict had already been decided at that moment.

The battle among the demigods concluded more swiftly than anyone could have anticipated.

***

The battle of the demigods in the western part of Verdant Leaf World had concluded, and Sein had promptly begun harvesting materials from the fallen Green Cypress Pine.

Meanwhile, the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring’s central fortress camp detected the arrival of three more demigod-level beings.

These newcomers—a crab, a shell, and a sea eel—while not as overtly powerful as Tourmaline, were comparably immense, each nearly a thousand meters in size.

None of the demigod-level creatures in the Astral Realm typically reached such immense proportions.

Moreover, the strong aura they carried as native creatures of the Magus World unmistakably identified them as the extremely rare and seldom-seen Sea Kings from the Magus World’s oceans.

Sea Kings typically dwell in the ocean's depths, far from other sea races, living solitarily in underwater trenches.

Lacking high intelligence and community structures, these creatures rarely form familial bonds, with many leading isolated lives.

The appearance of three Giant Sea Kings did not bring too much surprise to the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring Army, as they had already been somewhat desensitized by Tourmaline.

Although the visual impact of these new giants was staggering, the aura and pressure they emitted fell short compared to that of Tourmaline.

Furthermore, these sea giants appeared somewhat dull-witted.

Upon their descent to the fortress base, they coincidentally encountered an assault by Verdant Leaf World’s Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly Clan.

Originally tasked with safeguarding Tourmaline, the three Sea Kings unexpectedly joined the fray against the Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly Clan after Lorianne said something to them.

The arrival of three immense demigod-level Sea Kings spelled absolute disaster for the insect species of Verdant Leaf World!

Apart from the Bamboo Leaf Dragonflies, which were over a meter tall, most other insect creatures did not even reach a height of one meter.

One could only imagine the devastation that would ensue when the three colossal and violent-natured Sea Kings attacked these smaller creatures that had converged in vast numbers!
