Fox Has No Malicious Intent-Chapter 680 - 678: Stunned Like a Wooden Fox

"Woo woo...."

Amidst the black monster's whimpering, Master Fuli gave them a thumbs up, indicating they did well.

"Now, it's your turn..."

"The sudden increase of Spirit Beasts in Qinling, damaged crops, the Security Bureau's 996 resentment..."

Master Fuli held the Gravity Hammer, gazing at the giant tree perched atop the treetop, with branches or roots coiled around the cave walls and the tower, as if it hadn't even noticed his arrival.

In front of the Treasure Tree, even though Master Fuli's height was elevated in his Beastman form, he still appeared very small.

The words he spoke were not even as loud as the friction sound made by the unintentionally swaying branches.

Subjectively, the Treasure Tree might not have done anything wrong, but Ansheng, seeing the Treasure Tree for the first time today, didn't know.

However, Ansheng had heard about the events related to the Treasure Tree in the few days before arriving in Chang'an City.

The abnormal increase in the number of Spirit Beasts in the Qinling Mountain Range didn't seem to have any serious consequences from the text, and even benefited the research work of Spirit Particle Research Institutes across the province.

But the most direct impact of the surge in Spirit Beasts was that it disrupted the regular patterns of those originally living on the forest edge.

Spirit Beasts claim territories and repel unfamiliar creatures from staying long in their domain. More Spirit Beasts mean more owned territories, forcing wild animals into the city.

The mountains are hard to access, and people living by farming, after finishing their busy farming season, don't stay idle but go into the mountains to gather rare delicacies and medicinal herbs to make dried goods for money.

Farming is merely subsistence, but this part of the income is considered the main source.

However, because of the impact caused by the Treasure Tree, people who have lived by the forest for generations can only choose to work in factories after weighing their options.

"Treasure Tree!"

Master Fuli spun around, a fluffy, white fox tail detached from his body during the swing, and Master Fuli had completed the turn, delivering a heavy blow onto the detached fox tail.

The white fox tail shot out, transforming into a white beam, trailing diffusive airflow, piercing straight through the multi-layered high wall of branches, reaching the core of the tree crown.

"Boom——"

Red light overflowed and leaked, and an extraordinarily terrifying explosion erupted within the cave.

A blade-like airflow raged, slaughtering everything within the cave, turning the branches and roots into scatter and powder, causing the giant tree entrenched at the cave's top to tilt.

"Awo——"

A silent yet palpable wail echoed across the cave's surrounding area for several miles.

The Treasure Tree felt pain. It howled in agony, desperately waving its branches to extinguish the flames on its body.

A blob of dark green light shifted from the tree trunk at the cave's top to its base, resembling an eye, or perhaps a green gem, fixated deadly on the sole standing entity in the scene.

"Pain——"

"Come on!"

Master Fuli heard the cry of pain, lifted his foot, and stomped heavily on the cave ground, anticipating that the Treasure Tree would certainly swing its roots to attack him.

What Master Fuli intended was to take advantage of this opportunity to directly uproot the entire giant tree, nailing it to the ground, using the Gravity Hammer to break its pride.

"Roar——"

An angry intent reverberated, and the residual branches entangled and formed tendrils, transforming into a spiral lance aimed at Master Fuli.

"Go!"

Master Fuli pulled out a tail, held it in his hand, swiftly scanning the number of tendrils, and hurled the tail like a concealed weapon toward the gathering point of the branches.

Master Fuli raised the Gravity Hammer in his hand, positioning it in front of himself.

"Boom——"

Another fierce explosion surged, reducing the already sparse number of branches by ninety percent. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Master Fuli dashed forward rapidly, charging ahead amidst the razor-sharp fragments of wood and wild wind.

Until.

A tendril, twisted and convulsing in pain, appeared at eye level.

Master Fuli leaped up vigorously, swinging the Gravity Hammer, wedged between the tendrils.

"Kneel! For! Me!"

Master Fuli used the Gravity Hammer as an anchor, and the Treasure Tree at this moment seemed like a giant ship docked at shore.

Although it possessed unparalleled potential energy, it had lost the power to move, drifting with the tide, tightly bound by the anchor on the coast.

"Crack——"

Clutching the tree roots, Master Fuli smashed heavily onto the ground, causing the entire rock layer to crack, spread, collapse, and sink section by section, with waves surging upwards.

"Boom——"

Master Fuli, back to the Treasure Tree, took a heavy first step, as the rock layer resounded like war drums being pounded, and the vibrations dispersed.

The tilted angle of the dragged Treasure Tree increased further, and the cave ceiling could no longer bear the sudden tilt and pull, with cracks penetrating deep into the rock layers, as boulders larger than cars fell from the cave top.

"Squeak——"

The black monsters watched the scene as the sky and earth collapsed, like insignificant creatures witnessing the end of the world.

Even though their intelligence was not high, their instinctual drive still prompted them to emit screams of fear, scrambling and rolling to climb up the waterfall, wanting to escape the starting point of the world's end.

"!!??"

Originally shocked by the essence of Master Fuli's Fuli Cannon being his tail, Wang Qiqi also widened her eyes, witnessing the terrifying scene inside the boundless cave, akin to the skies falling, gasping with a cold breath.

"Run!"

Wang Qiqi looked toward a mosquito and a Golden Leopard, calling out.

Even without Wang Qiqi's words, the Golden Leopard had already completed its transformation, its body muscles redistributed, limbs becoming exceptionally robust, especially its hind legs.

Everyone used their abilities, retreating upstream with the fastest speed they could muster.

A dozen black monsters entered the dark river, pausing like blinded flies, watching the strangers retreating almost at ground level flying along the river course.

They exchanged glances, sharing information.

Although they didn't know who was on the other side, seeing them escape so confidently, it should be right to follow them.

The black monsters followed Wang Qiqi's lead.

And within the cave, nothing could be seen now, with the cave resembling a collapsing domino set, a cascade of rocks falling, and billowing dust filling the entire space.

The hundred-meter-tall Treasure Tree lay sideways within the cave, crushing the original tower, its exposed roots still visible in curled form, clutching fresh, moist soil, alongside various forcibly uprooted different tree species.

The entire tree lay inside the cave, what should have been its flexible root ends now frozen.

The entire giant tree exuded a bewildered atmosphere, plunged into contemplation of tree existence and philosophy.

Who am I?

Where am I?

Shouldn't trees stand upright? Then..... why am I lying on the ground now? Did someone cut my trunk?

At this moment, the Treasure Tree was dumbfounded.
