Chapter 1993: Re-entering the Wood Clan

"I came to this world secretly this time, bypassing the ears and eyes of other old guys, not to hide and not come out, but to fight for greater benefits for us! According to the Holy Ancestor agreement at the beginning, no matter whose human territory is conquered, when finally establishing a stronghold for our clan in the Spirit World, we can have the right to dispose of half the area. With such great benefits, I naturally have to fight for the greatest interests for our faction!" The black-armored woman said solemnly.

"Then what does Sister mean?" Yuan Sha frowned and asked.

"After I go back, I will take the Dragon-Locking Pill to stimulate the potential of this incarnation, allowing it to temporarily recover 70-80% of its magic power. In this way, as long as I am not facing an overly powerful opponent, I can still make a move in secret." The black-armored woman pondered slightly and said.

"Dragon-Locking Pill! Then wouldn't Sister have to meditate for a thousand years after a hundred years to truly heal the injuries?" Yuan Sha seemed surprised.

"It doesn't matter. This time, as long as I get enough benefits, what does it matter if a mere incarnation meditates for a thousand years. However, during this period, I still need Sister to guard me more, to prevent this incarnation from really falling." The black-armored woman said slowly.

"Don't worry, I originally came to this world to assist Sister in her actions, but I never expected to encounter Baohua. Thinking about the old feelings between us back then, it's really sigh-worthy!" Yuan Sha smiled bitterly and said.

"Hmph, since Baohua chose a different path from us, there is no such thing as old feelings. The principle that the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit has always been the iron rule of our Holy Race. If we had failed that day, the outcome would definitely have been much more miserable than Baohua's today!" The black-armored woman snorted, saying coldly.

"Maybe. But Baohua is after all one of the three origin ancestors of our Holy Race. It is impossible to completely eliminate her influence. Many people, although they don't show it on the surface, are still loyal to her in secret." Yuan Sha sighed and said.

"As one of the origin ancestors, the influence is naturally not comparable to ordinary Holy Ancestors. But no matter how great the influence is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time. Thirty thousand years, forty thousand years, maybe someone still remembers being loyal to her, but after a hundred thousand years, a million years, the influence will naturally dissipate like clouds and smoke. However, we cannot let her wander around nearby like this. When the true body can descend, I will naturally organize a group of people to deal with her specifically. By then, even if we cannot completely strangle her, we will never allow her to ruin our big plans!" The black-armored woman said with murderous aura.

"Hmm, since Sister has made a decision, I naturally have no objections. Now that Sister's injuries have been suppressed, let's set off to return to the human race immediately. When I set out, the restrictions of the human Tianling City had been broken almost completely. Maybe after going back, the city will be completely occupied." Yuan Sha nodded and suggested.

"That elite army led by my other incarnation is the elite force I carefully selected, enough to rank in the top three of all demon armies descending to the Spirit World. If they still couldn't take down a mere human main city, it would be strange." The black-armored woman said lightly, not surprised.

"That is indeed the case, otherwise Sister's incarnation wouldn't have the spare power to send me out to sabotage the human race's little actions." Yuan Sha smiled.

"Let's go, I hope things go as smoothly as we think!" The black-armored woman raised her head to look at the sky, her eyes flashing.

"It's a pity that this time it was cheap for that brat Han, letting him escape with his life in vain." Yuan Sha remembered the main target of this pursuit and felt depressed again, cursing twice.

The black-armored woman smiled slightly and didn't respond, but opened her mouth and sprayed a ball of red light.

In the red light was a crystal-clear red flying car, several inches in size, exquisite and unusual. Under the urging of the magic formula, it instantly turned into several zhang in size.

Yuan Sha didn't hesitate, her body moved, and she appeared on the flying car.

After the black-armored woman stood up, she raised her slender legs and slowly floated onto the car.

The next moment, the flying car's surface flashed with light, turning into a red rainbow and soaring into the sky, shooting toward the horizon.

Five months later, Tianling City, one of the three great imperial cities of the human race, was finally submerged by the boundless demon army.

In this battle, not only did all the cultivators in the city die in battle, but several Body Integration stage elders were also forcibly trapped and besieged by high-tier demons.

However, the desperate counterattack of these top human existences was extremely tragic, dragging an equal number of same-rank Demon Venerables and thousands of high-tier demons to explode and fall together.

Only the newly appointed Spirit Emperor unexpectedly performed some kind of incredible supernatural power, suddenly raising his magic power to an incredible level, and forcibly killed a bloody path out of the demon army, escaping with heavy injuries.

But after the battle, there was no news of this Spirit Emperor at all.

The high-tier demons who led the demon army were furious, not only killing all the captured human cultivators in the city, but also cutting down the symbol of Tianling City, that giant tree reaching the sky.

The entire Spirit City collapsed, and less than one out of ten of the remaining buildings remained.

However, this demon army suffered quite a bit of vitality after the battle of Tianling City, and did not immediately continue to sweep toward the adjacent areas, but stationed and rested on the ruins of Tianling City, and continuously replenished demons and demon beasts from the Demon World passage.

What surprised the remaining human forces in the Tianling territory even more was that these demons began to build more demon fortresses and strongholds in the occupied areas, and also planted some strange pitch-black demon trees that spat out thin demonic Qi nearby, looking like they intended to live in the human territory for a long time.

These human forces were terrified and desperately sent these messages to other human strongholds.

Not long after, several major super strongholds, including Tianyuan City, all knew this news. On the surface, there was no big reaction, but in secret, it was naturally another turbulent wave!

In the savage world, at the edge of the Wood Clan territory, in the center of a primitive dense forest, more than a dozen hundred-zhang high towers and sections of gray-white city walls formed a small fortress with a diameter of about a mile.

In this fortress, demonic Qi rolled, and one could vaguely see teams of armored demons patrolling on the city walls.

And above the fortress, a pitch-black hole about a mu in size appeared and disappeared in the demonic Qi, which was one of the nodes where the Demon World and the Human World merged.

However, this node was extremely small compared to those super "nodes" in the human territory, and could not be compared at all.

And those ordinary demons patrolling in the fortress were also pale red in skin and low in cultivation, seemingly not true elite demons.

This was also normal. Such a small node naturally could not station many demon forces to guard it.

This was still the number of "nodes" appearing in the Wood Clan territory, which was far inferior to those in the Human and Demon Clan territories, otherwise even this demon fortress would not have appeared.

However, from the large areas of scorched trees around the fortress and the pitted ground, one could see that this place had also experienced more than one battle, but the losers were clearly not the demons stationed here.

Of course, this was also because the major forces of the Wood Clan did not look at such small demon "nodes" and had invested their true strength in attacking those giant "nodes" that truly threatened the survival of the Wood Clan.

But for some small forces in the local Wood Clan, this node was like a thorn in the eye, and they naturally wanted to pull it out. Therefore, almost every once in a while, they organized a group of people to attack it once.

Unfortunately, they failed every time.

And the demons in the fortress, with the continuous replenishment of strength from the node, gradually showed a trend of becoming stronger the more they fought.

This caused even more panic among the nearby Wood Clan forces, and the number of attacks became more frequent.

On this day, in a dense forest dozens of miles away from the fortress, teams of Wood Clan people wearing yellow and green wooden armor appeared strangely and moved slowly toward the demon fortress using wood escape techniques.

Although the cultivation of these Wood Clan people varied, each of them moved silently, looking like they were well-trained.

Among them, an old man at the Void Refinement level and a middle-aged man and woman at the late stage of Spirit Transformation had the highest cultivation and were clearly the leaders.

The three not only walked at the very front of the team using escape techniques, but also whispered to each other carefully.

"Bamboo Old, I have to thank you for making a move this time. As long as you can help us take down this demon fortress, our families will definitely thank you heavily when we go back." The middle-aged man with a handsome face said gratefully to the old man.

"It's nothing, this old man is also a member of the Wood Clan, and it is only right to contribute more to dealing with the demons. However, I took the risk of having no one to sit in my family to travel a long distance to come here, which is also extremely dangerous. This battle needs to be resolved quickly." The old man shook his head, seemingly worried.

"Don't worry, Bamboo Old, we have almost taken out all the strength of our families this time, and we are also determined to decide the outcome in one battle. Otherwise, if it really drags on, it will be unfavorable for us. According to the probing of the last battle, the highest cultivation in the fortress is only four high-tier demons at the Spirit Transformation level. If Bamboo Old makes a move, solving them this time should definitely not be a problem." Another Wood Clan woman, whose skin was unusually pale and had no blood color on her face, also transmitted her voice in a low voice.

"Hmm, if there are really a few high-tier demons, leave them all to this old man. You guys make a move first to destroy that demon node. Without the node, these demons will not be a threat even if they escape." The old man nodded, but ordered worriedly.

"Good, we will follow Bamboo Old's words. After we destroy the node first, we will come back to help Bamboo Old kill those high-tier demons as much as possible."

The pair of Wood Clan man and woman looked at each other and agreed flatly.

Hearing this, the old man's expression finally relaxed.

After the three discussed a few more words in a low voice, they stopped talking and focused on leading the team.

But neither these three high-tier Wood Clan members nor the thousands of other ordinary Wood Clan people behind noticed that in a gray-dark cloud above the dense forest, a pair of blue-flashing spirit eyes were looking at them plainly.

The owner of the spirit eyes was a young man in green robes, looking about twenty years old, and it was Han Li who had not appeared for several months.

At this moment, while looking at the Wood Clan team below, he looked at the direction of the demon fortress in the distance, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Suddenly, Han Li smiled slightly, his body shook, and he became blurred in the clouds, finally turning into a faint green shadow that was almost invisible, and flew out of the gray clouds.

He drifted slowly in the low altitude, following these Wood Clan people to fly toward the demon fortress together.
