Chapter 752 Changing Strategies
The righteous geniuses, including Feng Yeyu, also quickened their pace and moved forward.
We cannot allow the evil forces to gain the upper hand, otherwise they will definitely take the opportunity to suppress us.
Their pride wouldn't allow the evil forces to gain the upper hand.
Ah Sheng was very tall, and sometimes when branches came down, he would simply block them with his hands. Once, he couldn't resist and tried to forcefully pull the branches down.
But when I pulled, it wouldn't budge.
"Sister, these branches are quite hard, I can't even pull them apart." He grinned at Zhong Ran and said, "They hurt me."
The previous two attacks were invisible, and he had no way to retaliate.
As a result, he couldn't even pull those branches and leaves apart.
Mu Jinning smiled and looked at him: "Asheng, how do you feel now after passing the two trials? Do you feel like you have more power?"
Ah Sheng nodded in agreement: "Yes, it builds strength faster than eating meat."
Only then did he realize that he didn't know how much time had passed since he came in.
Anyway, there was no distinction between day and night. He only knew that he hadn't rested or eaten meat yet, but he didn't feel hungry or tired.
"That's it. Although these attacks hurt a bit, Ah Sheng should be able to bear it."
Mu Jinning explained to him, "You don't need to pay attention to it hitting you, just keep walking. Actually, it's helping you increase your strength."
"You should also absorb more spiritual fruits in a while; the effect is very good."
"No matter how many injuries you have now, the pain will disappear instantly in a moment, you know?"
Ah Sheng chuckled: "I know, senior brother. I even stopped those bad guys from climbing the tree."
Mu Jinning's heart stirred slightly, and she nodded: "That's right, this is indeed a good idea."
He and Zhong Ran exchanged a glance, both realizing this possibility.
So they rushed over and absorbed some of it first. When the demons and monsters arrived, they stopped them from climbing the tree.
It doesn't necessarily have to kill people. Just stop them from climbing trees and healing their wounds. Then, let them go through a few more levels and accumulate more injuries. They might not even need to do anything more to make those people die during the levels.
"Let's absorb more first, and then we'll stop the evil forces later."
Zhong Ran understood what he meant: "We don't need to kill anyone, we just need to stop them from climbing the tree."
They may not be able to stop all evil forces, but they can stop some.
Over time, the effects will become very noticeable.
It took the three of them some time to find the giant tree.
The tree was so tall, taller than the two in front of it.
Ah Sheng threw the two of them up with force, and then climbed up himself to absorb the spiritual fruit.
Zhong Ran went up to the top of the tree first, absorbing the spiritual fruits while searching for the largest one.
After finding the largest spiritual fruit, absorb it first, and then collect the seeds.
The three seeds, though I don't know what their purpose is, are at the very top, so they must be something good.
As she had guessed, after collecting the seeds, the remaining spiritual fruits did not dissipate.
She absorbed the spiritual fruit quickly until she saw more and more geniuses coming this way. The three of them had already absorbed nearly half of the spiritual fruit, their power surging and their blood and qi full.
"Good stuff, really good stuff."
As expected of wood spirit energy, even though I still can't mobilize spiritual power, I feel particularly powerful at this moment.
Mu Jinning estimated the time and whispered to Zhong Ran and Asheng, "Get ready, they're almost here."
"Remember, don't engage in combat, just hinder them and slow them down as they climb the tree."
Ah Sheng nodded emphatically, his massive body like a rock, guarding a direction under the tree.
Zhong Ran and Mu Jinning also stood in the other two directions, fundamentally preventing them from climbing the tree.
Sure enough, in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the first group of figures burst through the woods and appeared before them.
There were seven people in total, bearing wounds of varying depths, dragging their weapons as they walked out with difficulty.
These seven people came out from different directions; four were from the righteous path, and three were from the demonic path.
"A tree! It's a spirit fruit tree! We've finally found it."
A greedy glint flashed in one man's eyes, but his expression changed when he saw the three people under the tree.
"Zhong Ran, Mu Jinning, Asheng. What are you trying to do?"
The unorthodox genius Ke Wuchen dragged his weapon and walked over step by step, his eyes flashing with coldness and fear.
The fact that Zhong Ran and the other two were able to appear here so quickly means that these pressures had no effect on them.
In fact, they arrived a step earlier and may have already absorbed a lot of spiritual fruits, so they no longer need to absorb any more.
So, they're here to stop them from climbing the tree?
If that happens, the consequences could be troublesome.
Beside Ke Wuchen followed a burly man with a face full of scars, dragging a heavy bone axe in his hand; he was clearly a powerhouse as well.
Another person was covered in wounds, and blood stained his clothes so much that the original color of his clothes was almost unrecognizable.
The other four were all geniuses from other states, whom I had spoken to before.
Feng Yeyu, Ji Wushuang, Murong Bing, and He Tengyuan.
During this time, more people came out one after another, all of them wounded and bloodied, dragging their weapons to support their bodies.
However, seeing the standoff, neither side made a move for a moment.
When Ah Sheng saw the giant man with a face full of scars, his eyes lit up, and he walked towards him, dragging a large knife in his hand.
"Today, this tree is ours, and you can come and climb it."
He pointed to the geniuses of the righteous path, such as Feng Yeyu, and then to the geniuses of the demonic path.
"As for you, if you want to go over, you'll have to get past me first."
"You're asking for death!" The burly man with a face full of scars roared in fury, wielding a heavy bone axe that whistled through the air as he slashed fiercely at Ah Sheng.
This giant was clearly very strong; even before the axe arrived, the force of the wind made it hard for people to breathe.
Ah Sheng neither dodged nor evaded, but swung his broadsword with both arms, his muscles instantly taut like iron.
"clang!"
After a deafening clang like metal clashing, a terrifying force formed a hurricane that blasted to both sides, forcing both of them to take two steps back.
The burly man with a face full of scars was chopped so hard that his feet sank half a foot into the ground, his sleeves were torn, and his arms were numb!
His expression changed drastically; he never expected Ah Sheng's strength to be so formidable.
"Again!" Ah Sheng shouted, taking another big step forward, raising his broadsword high once more, and slashing down with force.
The giant's tiger-like eyes also blazed with intense fighting spirit. He raised his giant bone axe, and the muscles in his arm tensed as he exerted force.
"clang!"
The hurricane, carrying the giant's massive body, was cleaved by the blade and sent flying backward, crashing into the two people behind him.
"That's tough! Ignore him, go around him, climb the tree!" Ke Wuchen supported him and gave a stern order, his eyes fixed on Mu Jinning.
The giant was unwilling to give up and wanted to fight Ah Sheng again, but after hearing Ke Wuchen's order, he went after Mu Jinning instead.
Ah Sheng's power far exceeded his expectations, but what about Mu Jinning? And what about that little girl Zhong Ran?
These two are also geniuses, but here, without the ability to use spiritual power, aren't they just at my mercy to be killed?
