“If you need anything, just let me know.”
The Hyena and the Lords nodded. The gap of strength between them was of the heaven and the earth. Su Wan was far too powerful than them.
Su Wan didn’t stay there any longer. She led her troops and headed in another direction.
The Lords watched as Xu Yuan, Su Wan, and the Night Devil Bees flew away. A few of the Lords looked envious. Su Wan had so many great troop types.
Su Wan flew north of the collapsed ruin. The Dark Demonic Tree was her destination. Although she was curious about the sudden appearance of the demons, the Dark Demonic Tree was more important.
They flew at an impossible speed. Su Wan marked several points on the map and then looked ahead.
A withered tree stood a few thousand meters away. It was the only thing standing amidst the dilapidated buildings and structures.
The Abyssal Demons forced the Lord to gradually retreat. The Abyssal Demons were a hundred meters away from the withered tree.
The tree was in the center. None of the demons dared to approach it.
Upon closer inspection, she discovered that the branches of the withered tree were strange. They were extremely twisted and looked like human arms.
The trunk of the tree was even more eerie. It was densely packed with human skulls. The ground around the tree was covered with skeletons.
Even someone who was familiar with death and demons would have a nightmare because of such a scene.
Su Wan calmed her racing heart and approached the tree.
The demon on the ground sensed her aura and raised its head. It stared at her with glowing red eyes. It let out a terrible roar from its throat.
Xu Yuan was unaffected by everything. However, when he approached the tree, he felt a terrible aura trying to suppress him. It was as though someone was watching him.
The feeling reached its peak as he got closer to the tree. It felt as though an Abyssal Beast would open its maw and devour him whole if he took another step forward.
Su Wan waved her hands and signaled to the Night Devil bees to stand down. She stared at the tree.
She opened its attribute panel.
[Dark Demonic Tree]
[Status: Withered (Recovering)]
The attributes weren’t anything special.
However, the tree was recovering.
‘Is it doing that by absorbing energy from the lifeforms around it?’ wondered Su Wan.
Su Wan activated the True Eye of the Demonic Dragon.
When she saw the new attribute panel appear, her eyes widened in disbelief.
[Dark Demonic Tree]
[Ruler of the Level 88 Bottomless Abyss. A seed planted by the King of Decay for his schemes. It contains the authority of the King of Decay.]
[It can irrigate the power of the abyss and restore itself. The King of Decay can use the power of the tree to gain control of the plane.]
[You can use holy water to destroy its authority and power. The King of Decay will permanently lose part of the tree’s authority.]
[Note: Can consume divine power to snatch the authority hidden in the rotten tree.]
Su Wan felt her mouth go dry. This was unreal.
‘The Dark Demonic Tree was planted by the King of Decay?’ If such an entity existed, he was no less than a god.
The God of Light’s soul was imprisoned. The Dwarf God’s statue was in Su Wan’s possession. Now, she had discovered the hidden trump card of the King of Decay who ruled the Bottomless Abyss!
Could ordinary Lords deal with entities like these?
Su Wan stared at the Dark demonic Tree. The tree was recovering its power and its vitality. It was also a source of power and authority for the King of Decay!
If the King of Decay succeeded in his plan, the entire Death Swamp might be affected. Even the legendary Archduke Qing You would have a hard time fighting something like this at that time.
Su Wan’s heart raced. What if she made the craziest choice and fought the King of Decay for authority over the Dark Demonic Tree?
It wasn’t something ordinary Lords could dare to do. However, Su Wan saw a glimmer of hope. If she could fight the King of Decay, she would be able to own the Dark demonic Tree.
She calmed herself. “Xu Yuan, do you think it’s possible?” asked Su Wan. “If you can imprison the God of Light, can you also snatch the authority of the Dark Demonic Tree from the King of Decay?”
Xu Yuan had broken through the Level 100 barrier. It was possible for him to reach the peak of his power. He was deep in thought..
