“1.6 million Evolution Points…” As Yu Zi Yu sorted through the gains of these past few days, a huge grin was hanging on his lips. In addition to the Evolution Points harvested from the Beast Tide in Misty Mountains, he had also harvested nearly 400,000 Evolution Points in Maple Leaf City.
Just because he was alone, he had buried tens of thousands of Mutant Beasts and Humans. Killing such a staggering number of creatures would naturally provide a substantial amount of Evolution Points.
This didn’t even take into account the Mutant Beasts and Humans hanging high up at his canopy, which were far greater in number.
Now, Yu Zi Yu was waiting…
Patiently waiting…
Waiting for what choice China would make.
If they were willing to hand over the mastermind behind the scenes, there would be no harm in letting these Humans go.
Furthermore, it should be noted that the exhaustion of Humans and Mutant Beasts was drastically reduced when they were bound by the branches and suspended high in the tree canopy.
According to Yu Zi Yu’s estimate, they would remain alive for at least 10-15 days.
In other words, Yu Zi Yu could afford to wait.
Of course, while waiting, Yu Zi Yu would not remain idle.
…
Maple Leaf City.
Currently, a veil of dense mist had shrouded the city, and a vast forest had merged with the man-made structures of the city.
At this moment, Yu Zi Yu, rooted at the center of the city, sank his consciousness into his tree body and calmly checked the ability he had recently upgraded, the Hallucinogen.
No, it was no longer called Hallucinogen, but ‘Illusory World.’
| Illusory World (Level 3) –You can create a world of illusion expending Spiritual Energy, and make everything sink into it. |
This was another extremely terrifying ability. Or rather, every Level 3 ability was exceptionally terrifying.
Now, Yu Zi Yu’s Illusory World was the same. The more realistic he wove the Illusory World, the deeper the enemy would sink into it.
Furthermore, he could manipulate the enemy through this ability.
“What a weird yet terrifying ability!?” Yu Zi Yu smiled, feeling satisfied with this upgraded ability.
[If I’m able to cast it on a large-scale, I might be able to incorporate the entire Misty Mountains into the illusion. By then, it would be difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion, and that would certainly be very scary. However, this seemed to be a long-term process. If I’m right, I would have to put in a lot of time and effort to set it up.]
[Hmm… it would require a lot of time to weave and perfect it until the enemy would find it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. If I could really achieve that level, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to manipulate my enemies through this ability.]
Right at this moment.
*Boom, boom, boom…* Accompanied with quakes, a figure appeared from the depths of the thick mist.
“Lord Divine Tree, I’ve brought them.” Grinning, Bull Demon put down a section of tree roots. At the end of the tree roots, several figures bound by the roots could be seen.
These were the prey that Yu Zi Yu had captured during the Beast Tide in Misty Mountains. Most of these prey were Transcendents. They were exceptionally powerful, and possessed remarkable Innate Talents.
Yu Zi Yu had instructed Bull Demon to bring these Transcendent Creatures here.
For now, he was rooted in Maple Leaf City and had no rush to return to Misty Mountains.
Moreover, with so many Humans here, even if China knew he was in Maple Leaf City, they would not dare to do anything rashly.
Thinking of this, Yu Zi Yu could not help but shake his head.
To be honest, he really did not want to get into a war of schemes with China. Unfortunately, his strength was not enough to suppress China. For now, all he could do was maintain peace using mutual checks and balances.
Mutual checks and balances would inevitably mean hidden undercurrents.
Just like now, Yu Zi Yu could keenly sense numerous unfamiliar presence in the vicinity of Maple Leaf City. In addition, there were a few idiots who had entered Misty Mountains as well.
Regrettably, these idiots would not last more than 15 minutes before they would be buried under the claws of innumerable Mutant Beasts lurking in the depths of the mist.
This time, Yu Zi Yu was not alone. Apart from Nine Tails and White Tiger, Sarcosuchus, and others who remained in Misty Mountains, all other Mutant Beasts have followed Yu Zi Yu here.
It could be said that the current Maple Leaf City was even more dangerous than Misty Mountains.
At this moment, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze turned to the several prey Bull Demon had brought.
An Elephant. However, compared to ordinary Elephants, it was evidently many times more menacing.
It had a height of over 10 meters, which made it look like a tall building. Its body was covered in fine, long, golden, reddish-brown, and grayish-brown colour, making it look thick.
Keeping everything aside, just looking at its long hair, Yu Zi Yu could tell that this giant Elephant had astonishing defensive capabilities.
Furthermore, its as white as jade ivory tusks were exceptionally huge, giving the impression that they could tear the sky apart.
“Mammoth…” Murmuring, Yu Zi Yu became somewhat certain of the identity of this giant Elephant.
He was not unfamiliar with Mammoths. They were colossal creatures from the Ice Age, some of the most formidable living beings in the world, and had long been extinct.
However, now, a creature which stood at the top of the food chain and had long thought to be extinct, had appeared in front of Yu Zi Yu like this.
[If I’m right, it should be…]
“Atavism.” With a grin, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes focused his gaze before a series of information entered his sight.
|
Race: Mutant Mammoth Rank: Tier-1 Innate Talent: Heaven-Tearing Tusks—They are its most terrifying weapon, which constantly grows along with the Mammoth. No creature can withstand its tusks, even if there is, it is definitely not of the same tier. Unique Abilities: Immense Strength—Its terrifying body size brings unprecedented strength. Barbarous Stamp—Raising its hoof high, it stomps the ground with such force that the resulting impact can tear anything in its path. Barbarous Charge—Its charge is like a runaway train, even a small mountain can’t withstand it. Thick Fur—Long and dense hair surges with terrifying Spiritual Energy, providing the Mammoth with formidable defense that ordinary attacks can’t break through. |
After taking a long, deep look at the giant fearsome Mammoth, Yu Zi Yu could not help but smile.
This was simply an advanced version of Armored Wild Boar. But compared to Armored Wild Boar, the Mammoth might be several times or even dozens of times more fearsome.
Just the difference in their size already put them in a different league.
Moreover, as an Atavistic Beast, the Mammoth had a physical body that the current Mutant Beasts could not compare to.
And this was the frightening aspect of Atavism.
As Atavistic Beasts, their bodies were far stronger and more robust than the current Mutant Beasts.
Furthermore, in addition to inheriting formidable physique, these enormous beasts that seemed to come from the prehistoric era had also awakened astonishing Innate Talents.
From the moment of their birth, they were destined to be the trendsetters of this Era of Transcendence.
And now, such a colossal beast stood silently in the distance, gazing at Yu Zi Yu in a daze.
After a long while…
*Pffffteee* A long and hearty trumpet rang as the Mammoth took a step forward.
The next moment, a deafening ‘bam’ rang as the earth shook, and the surrounding buildings shook a couple times.
Clearly, the Mammoth’s hundreds of tons of weight had quite an impact on the earth.
“Divine…Tree…” A hoarse yet heavy voice, tinged with a touch of awkwardness, clearly called out to Yu Zi Yu.
“Do you know me?” A faint smile appeared on Yu Zi Yu’s lips, piqued.
“Before coming, Fourth Brother Sarcosuchus had already put some work on them,” Bull Demon, who had already laid down next to Yu Zi Yu, suddenly opened his eyes and explained.
“I see,” murmured Yu Zi Yu, secretly praising Sarcosuchus. [You are as reliable as always.]
