Chapter 589 The Battle Begins, the Surrounded Tree Spirits
After hearing Mu Nujiao's words, Jiang Han wished he could immediately summon all the vine and willow tree spirits in the entire forest, harvest them one by one, and then resell them after he left. Even if it was only a small portion, the money he would earn would be a hundred times more than the previous missions.
Mu Nujiao glanced at Jiang Han, who was engrossed in his overnight fortune, and said helplessly, "Let's not even think about ten-thousand-year-old willow heartwood. We'll be incredibly lucky to find a thousand-year-old one."
"If there's no ancient tree demon, then forget it. But if there is, I'll take it down no matter what, and your and TuTu's cultivation will soar to new heights."
"Sigh, I hope you won't look down on me for being weak by then," Jiang Han said, feigning concern.
Mu Nujiao rolled her eyes at the goofy Jiang Han, but then, as if she had just thought of something, she smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you can serve us well, I'll buy you whatever you want."
"Well, I didn't expect you to go astray like this, Nujiao." Jiang Han pulled Mu Nujiao into his arms, then pinched her smooth chin and said, pretending to be angry.
While Jiang Han and Mu Nujiao were flirting, the vine and willow tree spirits that had previously attacked Mu Nujiao had been burned to ashes by the flames carried by the falling meteorite. At the same time, the vine and willow tree spirits that had been awakened by the Heavenly Flame Funeral were also gathering towards the two of them.
"Roar~" The roars of the willow tree spirit continued, forcing the two who were still chatting to turn their attention to the approaching tree spirit.
Soon the two were surrounded by the gathering vine and willow tree demons, including many commander-level tree demons that were hundreds of meters tall, as well as countless ordinary warrior-level tree demons.
"Quite a few people came, but unfortunately, very few actually managed to obtain the Willow Heart." Jiang Han loosened his arms around his family and shook his head helplessly.
"That's nothing. If it were anyone else in this situation, they would have run away long ago. They wouldn't even dare to think about Liu Muxin," Mu Nujiao said.
"Who has more family than us? If we don't find a way to make more money, we won't have any money to leave for our children to inherit in the future," Jiang Han joked with a smile.
"You..." Mu Nujiao blushed slightly at the words.
The leader-level vine willow tree spirit was enraged when it saw that the two intruders dared to ignore them. It opened its mouth and let out an angry roar, then swung its willow branches, which were thicker than an adult's arm and had sharp protrusions, at Jiang Han and the other person who were still talking and laughing.
The tree demon leader moved with incredible speed; in the blink of an eye, the willow branches were right in front of him. If someone were hit by one of these branches, they would surely be torn apart.
"Time stops!!"
Just as the willow branch was about to strike Jiang Han and Mu Nujiao, an invisible, special energy spread outwards from Jiang Han, causing everything within a hundred meters to freeze in place.
The willow branches that had been pulled out all stopped less than a foot away from Jiang Han, and there was a half-built plant-based star map under Mu Nujiao's feet. It seemed that they were planning to build the Kun Forest Prison to protect her and Jiang Han inside. If Jiang Han hadn't been unable to control the time of creatures within a hundred-meter radius, he would have insisted on removing the time stop imposed on Mu Nujiao.
Jiang Han didn't waste the time the time the time-freezing magic bought him. The gray-white mist instantly spread out, and at the same time, the necromantic star map under his feet took shape. Then, he summoned the Snow Condensing Dragon Blade from his spiritual world and held it in his hand.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!!"
Jiang Han continuously swung the Snow Condensing Dragon Blade in his hand, and several ice blades enhanced with peak soul seeds slashed at the willow branches. Then, the willow branches that were whipped towards Jiang Han were cut into pieces of ice.
After Jiang Han dealt with the troublesome willow branches, one undead creature after another emerged from the grayish-white mist, most of which were the undead water demons that had been transformed in the Blue Abyss Mirror Lake.
"I can use these tree demons to refine my undead forces!" Jiang Han thought to himself as he unleashed several ice blades at the nearest tree demon commanders.
The ice blades instantly froze the tree demon leaders' bodies, and many willow branches turned into ice spikes in an instant. At the same time, the time-stopping magic also expired. The tree demon leaders and Mu Nujiao were all a little confused. Not only them, but even the big shots in the arena were also confused.
Is this place really that absurd? One second they were about to be strung together, and the next second the roles were reversed. Some tree demon leaders were strangely frozen, and at the same time, thousands of undead creatures appeared in the field.
"Hehe~ Roar!!" The undead water demons roared at the same time, intimidating the vine and willow tree demons, and then swarmed up to tear them apart.
"Kill!!" The humanoid undead, led by the undead general and undead warriors, swung their weapons and slashed.
The willow tree spirits naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. They began to fight back, using willow branches to entangle and tear or strangle the undead. Many low-level undead water spirits were turned into broken bones or rotten flesh shortly after they came into contact with the spirits, becoming nourishment for the forest.
"When did you summon the undead? And how did you summon the undead water spirit on land? This will multiply your losses of undead creatures many times over," Mu Nujiao said.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Jiang Han said with a smile, holding the Snow Dragon Blade.
Other necromancers find it extremely difficult to summon undead creatures and need to consume a lot of resources to continuously cultivate contracted undead creatures. But Jiang Han is different. He can revive the dead creatures on the ground beneath his feet into undead whenever he wants. Furthermore, after being modified by the necromancer domain, they can continuously advance by devouring soul fire and other means.
The latest novel is first published here!
As time went on, more than half of the undead water demons summoned by Jiang Han were killed or wounded. Most of them were servants who served as cannon fodder, and some were warriors. As for the commanders, there were no casualties, but a few were severely injured when they were focused on. If they could not recover by absorbing the soul fire floating in the air in the following battle, they would become nourishment for their companions to advance.
The reason why the undead under Jiang Han's command are not useless and are exceptionally elite is related to the survival law of the dark forest: they must either constantly transform and grow or become nourishment for their companions.
As for the skeleton warriors under the command of the undead general and the undead warriors, many of them have become even stronger in this battle. Some outstanding ones have even risen to become Blood Blade Bone Generals or Fiend Shield Bone Generals, who are at the peak of the warrior class.
During the battle, both the undead general and the undead warrior were overpowering several commander-level tree spirits. There was no way around it; having reached the Grand Commander level, their strength far surpassed that of these tree spirits.
"Nu Jiao, just focus on recovering. Leave everything else to me," Jiang Han said, handing the willow heart he had acquired earlier to Mu Nu Jiao.
"Well, just be careful not to provoke too many tree demons at once and you won't be able to handle them." Mu Nujiao didn't stand on ceremony with Jiang Han, and while taking the willow wood heart, she couldn't help but give him another word of advice.
