Chapter 355: Chapter 211: The Entire Forest is Full of Our Own People_2

Chi Shao nodded and said, “That’s exactly what the Vine God means.”

“Then I’m relieved.”

Jiang Xuan let out a sigh of relief; if they couldn’t chop down trees in the future, it would indeed be a troublesome matter.

In the forest, the battle ended quickly.

Although the Black Snake Tribe had a large number of warriors, their numbers were useless against those giant tree-men, and it was difficult to inflict fatal damage on them.

After leaving a field of corpses, over six thousand Black Snake Tribe warriors fled the forest in distress.

The tree-men did not pursue; once they drove the people away, some returned to their original positions while others found a new place to take root.

As long as they didn’t open their eyes or move around, they were almost indistinguishable from ordinary large trees.

“Hiss hiss…”

In the sky above the forest not far away, the large black snake continuously swam back and forth. It was furious and frustrated, but ultimately didn’t dare to charge into the Vine Tribe because it feared the Divine Vine would summon another lightning catastrophe.

It stared at the Divine Vine for a while, then swished its tail and swam directly in another direction.

On the ground, the Black Snake Tribe’s witch received instructions from the Snake God, his expression ugly as he said, “Divine order, bypass this tribe and continue forward!”

“Crack!”

The Black Snake Tribe leader punched the tree trunk beside him fiercely, snapping a soup-bowl-sized tree in half.

“Let’s go!”

The Black Snake Tribe leader sat on the back of a large snake, which immediately started moving, carrying him toward the direction of the Snake God.

The Black Snake Tribe’s witch also rode off on a large black snake.

Over ten thousand Black Snake Tribe members followed suit, each feeling suffocated but helpless.

This was the first time they encountered a tribe that was difficult to conquer, and it appeared to be just a medium-sized tribe.

Soon, everyone from the Black Snake Tribe had left.

Jiang Xuan rode Tang Yuan and followed from a distance, finally relaxing when he confirmed the Black Snake Tribe had left and weren’t plotting to return.

The crisis for the Vine Tribe was finally resolved, and there were no casualties.

On the other side, the Frog Tribe, who had been waiting at the riverbank, also finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“They’re finally gone.”

Huo Meng and the witch exchanged glances, both letting out a sigh and sitting down.

When the Black Snake Tribe came, they were genuinely afraid.

Despite the hatred, they dared not engage in a life-and-death struggle with the Black Snake Tribe, and upon seeing them, they were prepared to flee.

Now, the Frog Tribe had regained many giant frogs; if attacked by the Black Snake Tribe, they’d immediately ride the giant frogs across the river to escape first.

Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not occur; they remain a good subsidiary tribe of the Vine Tribe.

“Roar!”

“Splat…”

A tree-man swung its thick branches, smacking the warriors of the Black Snake Tribe and sending many flying, their bones snapping and tendons tearing.

A Black Snake Tribe warrior cried out in terror, “These trees are alive…”

Elsewhere in the forest, other Black Snake Tribe warriors faced the same issue, as row after row of giant trees began to move, suddenly attacking them, causing them to howl in distress.

The tree-men’s power was truly terrifying, and they were enormous; when a branch swept across, there was no place to hide over a large area.

With over a hundred tree-men attacking simultaneously, more than six thousand Black Snake Tribe warriors were beaten into retreat, scampering away.

Even more terrifying, the forest didn’t just contain tree-men.

Ordinary vines, weeds, and shrubs also received blessings from the Divine Vine; though they didn’t grow eyes or mouths like tree-men, they gained some intelligence and mobility.

A Three-Color Warrior of the Black Snake Tribe, relying on his swiftness to dodge tree-men attacks in the forest, suddenly found his feet entangled by a regular vine when landing.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t pay attention to such a vine, easily breaking free with brute force.

But now, once entangled, the terrifying branch of a tree-man directly struck him.

“Ah!”

The Three-Color Warrior let out a miserable scream, as he was battered by the tree-man’s branches, his body bearing wounds all over.

The tree-man pulled out its thick roots from the ground, then moved past the Three-Color Warrior.

After the tree-man passed, the Three-Color Warrior was dead beyond doubt, with his spear broken into several pieces.

“Too fierce!”

On the watchtower, Jiang Xuan exclaimed as he watched the tree-men chase over six thousand Black Snake Tribe warriors.

Chi Shao smiled and said, “With the Vine God, the entire forest is on our side; it’s not easy for outsiders to attack.”

“The whole forest is on our side!”

Jiang Xuan exclaimed again, truly feeling the terrifying power of the Divine Vine for the first time.

As long as they were in the forest, it could enlist all plants to aid in battle.

But Jiang Xuan thought of another issue: “Why didn’t the Vine God create tree-men earlier?”

Chi Shao replied, “Maybe because it consumes too much divine power.”

Jiang Xuan nodded, acknowledging that turning a large tree into a tree-man was indeed quite challenging—something even a great deity like that black snake couldn’t achieve.
