Chapter 679: Chapter 675: Final Battle (33)
While Mi Yang certainly understood the danger the Crane King posed at this moment, what concerned him more were the problems in continuing to entangle himself with the Crane King in Beast Valley.
When the Crane King was a mere wild beast, it could rule over the birds and beasts in Beast Valley. Now that the Crane King has evolved into the Demon King, if it commands the flying beasts to attack the crowd or orders the birds in the Beast Valley to assault the South Ridge Formation, such damage would be too much for the Mi clan to bear.
Thinking about the worst-case scenario, if this Beast King decided to flee and take away the beasts in Beast Valley with it in order to seek revenge later after its cultivation was more stable, this would lead to the loss of the Mi Clan’s thousand years of accumulated efforts. Add to that the fact that a group of Martial Ancestors from the Xiao Family are missing, and Tang Zhi is stationed outside South Ridge with a large force watching eagerly.
If chaos erupts in Beast Valley again, then South Ridge, facing both internal and external threats, would truly fall into an irrecoverable crisis. This was something Mi Yang could not allow.
“The Crane King is not very strong at this moment and combined attacks can still hurt it. If we do nothing, this beast will become a nightmare for the Mi clan!” Mi Yang ordered the Mi Clan’s Martial Ancestors behind him, staring at them. “Lead him to the main battlefield. Don’t worry about whatever damage caused along the way. Let this Demon King go to the battlefield!”
Demonic beasts can’t distinguish human faces. Like humans seeing birds and beasts and thinking they are pretty much the same, it’s about time for Tang Zhi to bring his troops right up against the South Ridge. And it is the right moment to drag the Demon King there.
After all, this monster created by the Xiao Family, it’s unreasonable to let the Mi clan shoulder it alone.
Hearing Mi Yang’s orders, the Martial Ancestors nodded. However, Mi Chen’s face was gloomy because he had heard more information from Mi Yang’s words. “What about you?”
Turning into a demonic tree, Mi Yang looked at the phoenix tree not far away and said calmly, “The clan is facing a great disaster. As a warrior, it’s hard to turn the tide. Only by transforming into a demonic tree can I perhaps give our clan a glimmer of hope.”
In fact, he had this idea the moment he touched the Divine Phoenix Tree. As a warrior who had awakened the Divine Wood bloodline, he couldn’t choose to forge his spirit as ordinary warriors did. To be more precise, he couldn’t forge a human-shaped spirit at all.
His spirit was a willow tree, a demonic tree that he had Visualized from a picture of a divine willow passed down from ancient times. After he had forged the spirit of the Willow God, he couldn’t distinguish whether he was a tree or a human being.
More often, he felt like a Divine Wood trapped in a mortal body. The real him should be a divine willow standing tall in the Nine Heavens, everlasting, overlooking the vicissitudes of life.
But his human rationality kept pulling him back to reality. Mi Yang knew that his Divine Wood bloodline was too strong and had begun to affect his will and judgment.
It was then that he understood why the Divine Wood bloodline could prolong life, but few who have the Divine Wood bloodline could leave their legends in the world.
While the Divine Wood bloodline gave warriors a long life and strong resilience, it gradually affected their minds.
Especially after losing both arms, Mi Yang could only block in front of everyone by transforming into a divine willow.
This made him feel more and more that, compared to being a human, he was more suited to be a demonic tree, which was good for both him and his clan.
Because his frail human body could hardly withstand the Corona of the Flame Ling Wing Crane. But if he could merge with this Flame Tree, the Crane King would no longer be a threat to the Mi Clan. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
The Demon Wood, looking at the Phoenix Tree in front of him with a fanatical look on his face, suddenly felt that as long as he merged with this Flame Tree, all the difficulties that the Mi Clan was facing at the moment could be resolved. And he could be the best version of himself, so why not.
Mi Chen, seeing Mi Yang’s expression, knew that he was manipulated by the Divine Wood bloodline. It’s one of the biggest problems for those with strong bloodlines. The moment they lose their focus their bloodline will control and affect them, and with age, this effect becomes heavier.
“Wake up, Elder! You are the supreme elder of the Mi Clan, the top martial artist in Xiling, Mi Yang, a Martial Ancestor who is on the path of enlightenment. If you merge with a demonic tree, the world will lose you, Mi Yang, and all your hundreds of years of hard cultivation will be destroyed. Wake up!”
Mi Chen infused his words into the supreme elder’s mind in hopes of awakening Mi Yang. But after he was severely injured and transformed into a demon tree, Mi Yang’s humanity faded even more. He just coldly responded, “What’s wrong with being a tree? You don’t need to say any more. I’ve made up my mind. Prepare for a combined attack. Once the firestorm dissipates, attack the Crane King and draw him away to buy me some time!”
Without waiting for Mi Chen’s response, Mi Yang descended to the roots of the Phoenix Tree. He opened his arms and leaned against it. The warrior who transformed into a demon tree seemed to blend with the Phoenix Tree into one, sinking into the trunk of the divine tree, disappearing.
Mi Chen knew this was a unique fusion secret technique of the Divine Wood bloodline. He also knew that no warrior who has fully merged with the Divine Wood bloodline has ever made a breakthrough. Therefore, he understood that one more potential grandmaster candidate the clan had been holding great expectations for was gone.
In the end, Mi Yang was defeated by the will of the Divine Wood bloodline. He thought that a demonic body was stronger than a human body and ultimately couldn’t take that unprecedented step forward.
“Sigh…” With a light sigh, Mi Chen commanded the five teams of Martial Ancestors behind him: ”Adjust your state and prepare for the combined attack. Don’t let the Crane King disturb the supreme elder’s merging with the divine tree!”
…
Outside of South Ridge Mountain, three large ships were blatantly blocking the ravine. The warriors from the Fierce Realm on the decks took off and confronted the Mi Clan’s coalition forces on both sides of the gorge.
Seeing one’s enemies naturally arouses anger. After the North Mountain battle, the seven prestigious clans lost thousands of their people and tens of thousands of their family warriors. These were all real clan forces. At this moment seeing the main culprits of the massacre in person, the allied warriors could hardly restrain themselves. If they weren’t stopped by the warriors of the Mi Clan, the war would have started.
The reason the allied warriors were stopped was not out of fear from the Mi Clan. Instead, Mi Jin believed that rather than confront Tang Clan’s aid now and form an irreconcilable enmity, it’s better to let them retreat knowing the difficulty!
“All of you who attack South Ridge today are our mortal enemies. Considering that the great mistake has not yet been made, the clan leader will not make things difficult for you if you leave!” Mi Jin, who was standing on the edge of the gorge, yelled to the foreign warriors in the sky.
However, his admonishment was only met with jeers. Those blinded by interest would, of course, not be scared to retreat by such empty threats.
Having expected such a reaction, Mi Jin was not angry. Instead, he just kindly reminded them, “Since you insist on causing trouble with our Mi Clan’s allied forces, then I have to show you what the price will be. I believe this is the clan leader of the Cui Family from Lanshan City, Cui Ying?”
“Yes, it is I.”
“Right now the Mi Clan has a team of celestial birds and feather guards rushing to the Dragon’s Saliva Lake on White Dragon Mountain. I wonder whether Clan Leader Cui would prefer to test the durability of South Ridge’s great formation here, or hurry back to check the rest of your clan?”
Cui Ying’s face changed drastically. He couldn’t believe that the hiding place of his clan had been casually exposed, and for the moment, he didn’t know how to respond.
