Chapter 158: The Fall of the Lizard Territory

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Day 22 of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming’s life returned to normal.

Exercise, exercise, exercise!

It was fulfilling and “interesting.”

And on this day, near Lizard Territory, a small flesh-red tree was planted. Simba and Lianjie hunted exotic beasts to water it with their blood and flesh.

On the same day, the Black Feather Tribe mobilized again. Led by Amos and Alder, they were accompanied by ten Physique Realm experts and more than thirty Level 9 Mortal Realm experts.

A new storm was brewing!

Day 23 of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming: “A day without incidents.”

Near the Lizard Territory, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree grew to the height of a person, and Simba and Lian Jie had captured a Lizardman. The Blood Flesh Mother Tree absorbed it, gaining intelligence about Lizard Territory and a map of the surrounding area.

Also, on this same day, Amos and Alder led their group, covering one-fifth of the journey, leaving them seven days away from Dragon Spirit’s territory.

As it was commonly known, the speed of a group’s travel depended not on the fastest member, but on the slowest.

Therefore, the speed of Amos’ group was not much different from the speed of Amang’s group.

Day 24 of the Black Mist Calendar.

For Lu Ming, it was another uneventful day.

But for the Lizard Territory, today was destined to be an unforgettable day.

The Lizard Territory had a permanent population of around 300,000. The strongest among them was at Level 4 of the Physique Realm and there were dozens of Physique Realm experts.

Of course, the Mother Tree would not provoke Level 4 Physique Realm experts, but they were a minority after all.

In a valley outside the Lizard Territory.

A large number of lizardman farmers were forcefully detained by the human-headed monster and fused into the fungi carpet, becoming a part of the Mother Tree.

At this moment, the Mother Tree’s main body had already grown to a height of ten meters.

Its growth rate was astonis.h.i.+ng…

All it needed was sufficient energy, and the Mother Tree’s growth was enough to leave anyone gaping!

There was not much else in the Black Mist Zone.

But fortunately, individuals with abundant energy were definitely not lacking.

Day 25 of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming continued cultivating, cultivating and cultivating.

A normal yet fulfilling day pa.s.sed.

Near the Lizard Territory, the sneaky Mother Tree, which was also developing wretchedly, obtained a special thing.

A dragon scale of a Dragon Spirit!

That night, the a.n.a.lysis of the Dragon Spirit gene sample officially began.

With a ma.s.sive energy supply, the Mother Tree would be able to complete the a.n.a.lysis of the Dragon Spirit’s gene in about three days.

So, on Day 28 of the Black Mist Calendar,

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree had finished a.n.a.lyzing the Dragon Spirit’s genes.

As it marveled at the creature’s strength, which far surpa.s.sed that of the Physique Realm, the Mother Tree activated all its energy, preparing to replicate this dragon-like creature.

After several days of development, the main body of the Mother Tree had already grown to 50 meters in height, and its energy reserves were quite substantial.

However, replicating a dragon-like creature still required a bit more energy.

It decisively changed its strategy.

It decided to focus its efforts on capturing Lizard Territory, using all the creatures within as the foundation to create its ultimate weapon!

Preliminary estimates suggested that this process would take about five days.

Day 30 of the Black Mist Calendar.

Nothing happened in Nanxiang Gathering Place.

The Lizard Territory encountered an attack from the human-headed monsters. The Blood Flesh Mother Tree, finding itself in a desperate situation, engaged in a stand-off with the a.s.sailants. The two sides set up formations, exchanging blows like two opposing armies on the battlefield.

On the same day, the Black Feather Tribe group arrived near the Dragon Spirit Territory.

From afar, one could see black wings spreading on the highest peak of the mountain, and the raw and fierce dragon roars echoed like m.u.f.fled thunder from the sky.

Astounded, Amos could not help but exclaim, “The Dragon Spirit is as lively as ever…”

Then, he hurriedly led his clansmen to take a detour.

As an expert above the Physique Realm, the Dragon Spirit was undoubtedly the overlord of this region.

Fortunately, being an exotic beast, it did not have any kindred or need for excessive resources and territory, which allowed the survival of various groups like the Black Feather Tribe and the Lizardmen.

Interacting with it was out of the question.

All Amos and the others could do was stay far away from the Dragon Spirit.

That evening, Amos and his companions built a bonfire in the wilderness.

Alder estimated the distance and said softly, “Five days, another five days and we’ll reach the Lizard territory.”

They had covered nearly half of the journey.

The destination was getting closer.

Thinking of the significance of the tribulation bearers, Amos and Alder exchanged glances, the excitement in their eyes seemingly about to spew out.

Day 32 of the Black Mist Calendar.

The battle with the Lizard Territory ended sooner than the Mother Tree’s estimation.

The Lizardmen, due to various oppressions over time, had lost much of their fighting spirit, despite their not-so-low ranks. They lacked noteworthy combat capabilities and determination.

The pale red roots covered the entire Lizard territory.

Therefore, all the bioma.s.s in the Lizard territory turned into nutrients for the Mother Tree.

That night, after the Mother Tree devoured everything, it had already acc.u.mulated enough energy to create the Dagon Spirit!

“Three days!”

“At full strength, I need three days!”

Without a doubt, the Mother Tree decided to proceed with this plan!

Day 35 of the Black Mist Calendar.

In the valley outside the Lizard Territory, the towering Mother Tree convulsed continuously, shaking the human heads hanging all over it.

Beneath the fungal blanket, a ma.s.sive figure kept moving restlessly, its formidable aura fermenting and brewing.

Near the Lizard Territory.

Amos and his group floated in the sky, gazing down at the empty, lifeless city below, lost in thought.

“What’s going on here? Where are the people? Where did everyone go?”

Amos did not quite understand. Where did the entire population of 300,000 Lizardmen vanish to?

Evaporated into thin air just like that?

Beside him, Alder pondered for a moment and offered a reasonable guess.

“Amos, do you think the deaths of Amang and the others might be related to the changes here?”

This logic indeed made sense.

Upon hearing this, Amos immediately nodded.

“Highly possible.”

With that said, he continued, “Let’s split up and search to see if there are any clues.”

Their mission had two objectives.

Firstly, capturing the Tribulation Transcenders. Secondly, uncovering the cause of Amang and the others’ deaths.

The former was of utmost importance, while the latter’s significance was not as high.

However, if they wanted to capture the Tribulation Transcenders, they had to pa.s.s through the Lizard Territory. If they did not sort out the situation here now, they might probably encounter trouble when they returned.

As soon as Amos finished speaking, the group of Black Feather Tribe members immediately dispersed in all directions.

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree, being a unique ent.i.ty, did not adhere to the concept of levels.

To a certain extent, its size could reflect the MotherTree’s current strength level.

And now, the Mother Tree had grown to a much larger extent than when it was in Nanxiang.

At that time, the valley the Mother Tree had chosen back then was relatively concealed, but with the rapid growth of its size, even that well-hidden valley could not conceal the ma.s.sive tree anymore.

Just 30 minutes later, members of the Black Feather Tribe found the Mother Tree’s location.

It was too conspicuous.

Signals were sent out.

The Black Feather Tribe gathered.

Outside the valley, dozens of Black Feather Tribe members stared at the Mother Tree, dumbfounded.

“What on earth is this thing!?”
