“Are they here?” Murmuring to himself, Yu Zi Yu, who had already taken root at the edge of the continent, looked around with a gleam in his eyes.
As an openly acknowledged Natural Disaster-Class Entity, he was truly a Heaven and Earth Spirit Tree. The fruits he bore could transform lower-level Life Forms into high-level Elementals.
And Elementals were higher-order Life Forms that would step into Tier-4 upon reaching adulthood. They were just half a notch below the Apex Races like Dragons.
Moreover, his Spirit Essence could not only bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh on bones, but it could also temper the body. Even Natural Disaster-Class, aka Tier-4 Transcendents yearned for it.
Not to mention, Yu Zi Yu’s Willow Leaves and Branches were all supreme materials for crafting Divine Weapons.
Of course, the Supreme Treasure nurtured within his body was a Heaven-Defying Artifact that could grant an extra life.
In light of all this, it was easy to imagine what kind of existence Yu Zi Yu had become.
To put it bluntly, if one could seize even 10-20% of the benefits from Yu Zi Yu, stepping into Tier-5 would just be a matter of time. Even Tier-6 would be within reach. Thus, it’s not hard to understand why top-tier Transcendents on the continent would go berserk one after another upon sensing Yu Zi Yu’s aura.
Heaven and Earth Treasures belonged to the designed ones.
Firstly, because Yu Zi Yu’s released aura was too terrifying.
And the second reason?
Naturally, it was because they coveted Yu Zi Yu’s body.
Yu Zi Yu would not deny this. Just as they greedily eyed him, he had his sights on them as well.
As for the next, it was just a matter of strength: The strong would survive, while the defeated would either flee in disgrace or become captives.
With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu raised his eyes, looked at the numerous Mutant beasts already gathered around him, and ordered, “Send the Legions out. As for you all, rest and recover well in preparation for the upcoming battle.”
“Yes, Master,” responding, the Natural Disaster-Class Commanders of the Legions nodded.
However, at this moment, as if sensing something, White Tiger suddenly frowned and stated in perplexity, “It seems there are quite a lot of strong ones.”
There was indeed quite a lot. It was no longer just a few powerful beasts like on the Australian Continent. This time, White Tiger sensed no fewer than a dozen Tier-4 Entities. Moreover, the number of strong ones was increasing at a visible rate.
…
This did not mean that the combat power of the African Continent far surpassed that of Australia.
It was because Yu Zi Yu had intentionally kept a low profile in Australia. He had not released the aura of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Tree, thereby attracting only the belligerent and powerful creatures. Many of the Tier-4 Transcendents had remained hidden.
However, on this continent, with Yu Zi Yu intentionally releasing his aura, not to mention Tier-4 Creatures, even some Tier-3 Creatures who considered themselves strong wanted a piece of the action.
Naturally, the number of strong ones that appeared far exceeded that of Australia.
“Indeed, there are quite a lot.” Sensing the terrifying Spiritual Energy fluctuations rising from various corners of the continent, Nine Tails also could not help but slightly frown.
Despite their terrifying individual combat power, they would be in a spot against too many enemies.
More importantly, Natural Disaster-Class Creatures were on a different level: ordinary Tier-3 Transcendents would be of no use.
In other words, this would be a battle they would be fighting alone.
With these thoughts in mind, Nine Tails furrowed her brows, suppressing her unease. She was not afraid of death. She was just worried about her Master in case they lost.
*Haaaaa…* With a sigh, a cold gleam flashed in Nine Tails’ eyes as she gazed into the distance.
At this moment, as if sensing the worries of the many Mutant beasts, Yu Zi Yu reassured them:
“Don’t worry… do your best to hold them off and leave the remaining strong ones to me.” As he spoke, a fervent light flickered deep in Yu Zi Yu’s eyes.
[It’s been too long since I’ve truly taken action. I’ve almost forgotten what it felt like to fight. But today, I’m sure I’ll be able to fight to my heart’s content!] With a smile, the slender figure seated atop the tree canopy showed a hint of eagerness.
At this moment, what Yu Zi Yu did not notice was that among the hoard of Mutant beasts, several figures exchanged glances and tacitly withdrew.
They were none other than Bull Demon, Thorns, and Titan. Among Yu Zi Yu’s Nine Great Beasts, they were already at the peak of Tier-3, just a step away from reaching Tier-4.
Sensing the urgency of the situation, they too wanted to contribute.
And how would they contribute?
By breaking through to Tier-4, of course.
Only by truly stepping into Tier-4 would they be qualified to participate in a battle of this level.
…
*Haaaaaa…* Taking a long, deep breath,
With a deep breath, the fiendish Bull Demon, the Bull-Headed Humanoid Creature, walked steadily toward the Pocket of Lightning.
The Pocket of Lightning was one of the most terrifying Space Pockets controlled by Yu Zi Yu. Lightning wove through the sky like divine chains, with bolts of Lightning tearing through the Heavens. The deeper one ventured, the stronger was the power of the lightning.
Rumor had it that at the very end, the terrifying lightning could even harm those of Tier-4.
Such terrifying lightning was an excellent place for body refining.
Gritting his teeth, Bull Demon swallowed more than half a bottle of Life Essence.
This was the life-saving treasure Yu Zi Yu had given him over time. He had always been reluctant to use it, but now, he did not hesitate to use it.
“I will definitely break through to Tier-4!” The next moment, Bull Demon’s Spiritual Energy surged as a purple halo enveloped Bull Demon, distorting the surrounding light.
Meanwhile, in the Pocket of Earth, there was a piece of land completely red.
This was where Blood Spirit Grass was cultivated.
Blood Spirit Grass was an extremely bloody Spirit Plant that derived nutrients from blood. Nourished by the blood of fallen Transcendents on the battlefield, Blood Spirit Grass was thriving in this vast stretch of land.
Among them, there were quite a few Tier-3 Spirit Grasses.
And now…
*Tap, tap, tap…* With each step, the colour of blood blossomed, and thorns sprouted around the Blood Spirit Grass.
Next, in this blood-red garden, a figure with blood-red hair and a blood-coloured dress, Thorns, licked her lips.
“If breaking through is just a matter of time, then let me break through quickly.” As she murmured, blood-coloured Spiritual Energy gathered around Thorns, forming a blood-coloured Gorefiend Flood Dragon over 30 meters long.
*Roooooaar…* A Dragon-like roar reverberated through the Pocket of Earth, and the countless Blood Spirit Grasses around Thorns started swaying.
Faintly, one could see the blood mist rise from the Blood Spirit Grass, converging towards the figure at the center of the blood garden, making the Gorefiend Flood Dragon even more solid.
