Chapter 478: Amorphic Hell Tree

To leave so empty-handed, Gao Peng was a bit reluctant. After thinking for a while, he said, “Why don’t we go visit some of the famous tourist attractions of the Nihon District and see if we can find anything good?”
The Desolate Frost Lion nodded seriously and said, “I think this is a good idea.”
“Oh, that’s right. Dumby, can you revive that Cherry Sky Tree?” Gao Peng was suddenly reminded of the Cherry Sky Tree.
In truth, for Gao Peng right now, the additional combat strength of the Cherry Sky Tree after its revival was negligible, since it was never a combative familiar in the first place. Its Calm Aura could allow it to calm inner irritability and soothe killing intent.
Gao Peng thought that perhaps the Calm Aura would be able to alleviate the malicious aura from Dumby’s feedback. Dumby was dumbfounded. It said hesitantly, “I don’t know… Its damage is a bit severe. It is, after all, a tree. I have no idea what can be judged as a skeleton for it.”
Gao Peng nodded. In truth, one requirement for Dumby to resurrect the dead was the condition of the corpse, which also meant the preservation status of the skeleton.
He brought Dumby and the others to where the Cherry Sky Tree had fallen. At the foot of the mountain, people who wanted to benefit from the situation were sneaking around, but the moment they saw a group of ghouls flying in from the sky, they panicked and started scurrying to escape.
The Cherry Sky Tree was almost completely torn in half, with only a little bit of its bark still intact, connecting the upper and lower parts of the Cherry Sky Tree.
The fallen treetop was like a dead sakura waterfall covering the side of the mountain. The tree roots held firmly onto the mountain boulder like a hand with veins popping out and piercing deep into the rock cracks, like an eagle’s claws. It was clinging onto the cliff with the last of its strength so that it wouldn’t fall off the cliff.
It had done its best, but Gao Peng felt strange. Every life form was giving its all to struggle to survive. However, from the perspective of the winner, it wasn’t Gao Peng’s style to give a victory speech for a battle that hadn’t even exerted him that much. So, after lamenting for a bit, he quickly reined in his emotions.
“Dumby, try and resurrect it.”
Dumby nodded and aimed towards the large tree. A white Flame of the Undead transformed into a waterfall and shrouded the entire Cherry Sky Tree. White rays spread as a flame burned quietly.
It looked as if the branches of the Cherry Sky Tree were dancing in the flames.
Tong Xiang, who was behind Gao Peng, looked at Gao Peng’s back with a very complex expression, feeling very down. He had always been a Holy Individual, and now, he could even turn dead familiars into the undead. He didn’t even know if there were any limitations placed on an overpowered ability like that. Even if there were limitations, it would still be quite scary.
Tong Xiang only hoped that his parents wouldn’t be impulsive once they found out he had been kidnapped. Tong Xiang felt odd, as he actually thought that his elders wouldn’t win. I’ve really gone crazy.
Inside the white flames, a large tree stood up and stretched its branches.
“Hmm?” Gao Peng felt odd. This doesn’t seem like an undead creature.
To say it was a Skeleton-type undead creature would be wrong, since it didn’t have a skeleton, and to say it was a Soul-type wouldn’t be accurate either, as it didn’t look like one. Its dark eye sockets were like demon pits, and its pink cherry blossoms had turned blood red. The rugged tree surface had become smooth like a human’s skin. A grim and blood-red aura glowed lightly around it.
“Master, good news. This Cherry Sky Tree mutated while I was resurrecting it. It became a Ghoul-type monster,” Dumby said in surprise.
Gao Peng looked at the resurrected Cherry Sky Tree.
[Monster Name]: Amorphic Hell Tree (Variant)
[Monster Level]: Level 54
[Monster Grade]: Epic
[Monster Attributes]: Yin/Ghoul
[Monster Skills]: Slaughtering Aura Level 4, Violent Aura Level 4, Dreadful Aura Level 4
[Special Characteristic]: Amorphic Hell
(This tree can regenerate after its branches break off, its old branches sprout new buds, and it possesses an incredible vitality. When it actually dies, it will die completely. Very few trees in the world can be resurrected from the dead, so this is an event with an incredibly low probability. Every resurrected tree demon will have a low chance of returning as the Amorphic Hell Tree.
Passive Effect 1: Hell’s Void. Among demons, it absorbs all negative emotion in the mortal world, and when enough negative emotion has been absorbed, they will condense and become a corresponding aura.
The Amorphic Hell Tree’s grade cannot be increased through other methods. It can only increase its grade by possessing a certain amount of aura.)
[Monster Description]: Since kindness cannot protect what it wants to protect, it will use darkness instead.
All of its abilities disappeared, and it became an aura monster? But where is the calm aura that I wanted? Why did it turn into a violent aura?
Gao Peng looked like he was constipated. However, it wasn’t like the aura ability was completely useless. Especially for Dumby who summoned a large number of underlings, its value was high.
The team had another undead familiar with aura abilities. The slaughtering and violent auras could boost their teammates, and in certain situations, they could even have a miraculous effect. This dreadful aura could even weaken enemies.
Moreover, it had the potential to grow, so it was a decent new recruit. There was value in focused development.
Gao Peng thought for a while and said, “Since I’m already here, I might as well go and take a look at Mount Fuji.”
Since Gao Peng had already spoken the words, Dumby naturally followed its master. Desolion also had no objections.
Of course, the two captives had no right to speak. Right now, Tong Xiang and Tong Lin sat together on the heads of their ex-familiars. This sort of feeling where their own familiars had become another person’s toys really made them sad.
Tong Xiang felt uncomfortable. An enhanced mental power around him transformed into chains to trap him in place and made him float in mid-air.
The power that he had once used on his enemies was now restraining him. He wondered if he was stuck in a trap of his own devising.
“Brahman Elephant, don’t use so much force. You’re strangling me,” Tong Xiang whispered. He knew that his Six-Tusked Brahman Elephant’s soul could definitely hear it.
Unexpectedly, the Six-Tusked Brahman Elephant’s soul swung its nose and snorted lightly, irritated. The mental power restraints on Tong Xiang tightened, his shoulders squeezed together as his face turned purple.
They reached Mount Fuji rather quickly. The famous live volcano was now in a deep slumber, but the lava continued to burst out of the crater. As they reached the place, the fire element in the air seemed to become active.
Looking down from the side of the volcano crater, the lava boiled as large and muddled bubbles burst, filling the air with a burning smell. There was too much lava.
Gao Peng could feel something within the volcano. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any Fire-type or Lava-type familiars with him.
He glanced at Dumby, who nodded. “Don’t worry, master. Leave it to me.” Dumby jumped into the volcano.
After 30 minutes, Dumby crawled out of the lava, and with just a few leaps, it reached the volcanic crater.
Dumby had a plant that looked like a vine in its left hand. Traces of lava dripped from the top of the plant, and as the lava dropped to the ground, it quickly solidified and turned into a solid black substance.
“Master, there’s a weird snake monster with four heads and four tails that’s at the King tier. I only found this plant in the volcano, and the snake monster tried to stop me, so I beat it half to death,” said Dumby casually.
Gao Peng nodded, paying it no attention. “All right. That’s fine. You did well. We’re reasonable people. We’re taking its things, since it wouldn’t be good for us to kill the owner.”
By the time Gao Peng and the others were far away, a pitiful four-headed snake whose head was several times larger than its body popped its head out from the lava and started banging the wall with its head in anger.
Dong, Dong, Dong…
