Chapter 729 - 725: Berserk Transformation

None of the Beastman from the Golden Leopard Tribe expected to be attacked at this time.

The roar of the attack outside echoed through the mountains and forests.

Before the Beastmen of the Golden Leopard Tribe could react, a powerful attack from outside had already descended upon them.

The Golden Leopard Tribe was originally a powerful tribe.

But this time, the Beastmen attacking the Golden Leopard Tribe included not only Beastmen from other tribes but also the Vine Beastmen from the Vine Clan.

The Vine Clan is the most mysterious and powerful Beastmen.

The origin of the Vine Clan can be traced back to ancient times.

It seemed that the Vine Clan existed since the heavens and the earth were formed.

At that time, nature’s spiritual energy was abundant, and some special ancient vines in the deep mountains absorbed the Sun and Moon Essence and the Spiritual Energy of the mountains and rivers, awakening self-awareness after countless ages. Once they gained power, they shed the shackles of Spirit Plants and could take human form.

Over time, these awakened special vine Beastmen gathered, using bloodlines as their bonds and the Spirit Vine as their totem, forming the current Vine Clan Tribe.

Generally, the Vine Tribe would not interfere in matters of Beastmen tribes unless it affected them, and they were rarely meddlesome.

But the crux was that the son of the Vine Clan’s Clan Leader took a liking to the Young Master Lian of the Golden Leopard Tribe, choosing to become a She-beast for Young Master Lian.

He even wished to marry into the Golden Leopard Tribe and abandon his status as the heir of the Vine Clan.

Their Vine Clan’s Young Master was so stunningly beautiful and powerful.

If the Golden Leopard Tribe knew what was good for them, that so-called Young Master Lian should have agreed to their Young Master.

But that Young Master Lian refused instead.

The Vine Clan felt this was an insult to their Young Master, and they were extremely angry.

It just so happened that they heard Young Master Lian from the Golden Leopard Tribe was in a bad state, and when some Beastman tribes wanted to annex the Golden Lion Tribe, they contacted their Vine Beastmen, offering great benefits to entice them to act. Naturally, they wanted to vent their anger for their Young Master.

So many Vine Clan Beastmen acted.

During the attack on the Golden Leopard Tribe, countless vine whips, thick as arms, broke through the ground like spirit snakes, climbing the cliffs. Tough yet soft as steel, the vine whips, propelled by a gusty wind, frantically struck against the tribe’s stone walls and gates.

The green stone walls, weathered by a century of storms, crumbled into fine cracks where they were struck, and rubble scattered everywhere.

Moreover, their attacks on the gates were unceasing.

To add, there were Mutated Beastmen being manipulated and charging in.

Their bodies had already mutated; some bore sharp bone spikes, others were armored with sturdy scales, their eyes brimming with bloodthirsty frenzy.

"Charge, charge..."

"Kill... kill..."

"Bang... bang..."

The sounds of attacks were everywhere.

Once the Golden Leopard Tribe Beastmen realized, they deployed numerous Beastmen to continuously chop off the vine whips above the gates, preventing Mutated Beastmen from climbing over the walls and leaping in.

The cries and the sounds of battle instantly enveloped the Golden Leopard Tribe, and its Beastmen couldn’t help showing expressions of terror.

The cracks in the stone walls kept widening, the tribe’s defenses already teetering on the brink of collapse.

Finally, the gates were breached.

It was also at this critical moment that a tremendous and disconcerting power suddenly erupted from Mei Qingchen’s house.

A dazzling golden light shot up into the sky, interwoven with strands of black light, like threads entangled within the golden radiance.

Two extreme powers intertwined, carrying a world-destroying might, and explosively burst outward.

This power wasn’t the strongest, but the Purification Power mixed within caused many Mutated Beastmen to halt at once.

Their berserk aura dissipated greatly, their movements slowed.

Their scarlet eyes cleared momentarily.

However, some severely mutated ones continued to attack.

Wherever the light passed, the air was ripped apart with a piercing sound, directly impacting all the Beastmen besieging the tribe.

Whether it was the frenzied Vine Beastmen or the Mutated Beastmen, or even some Beastmen hiding behind, they were all hit by this force.

A deafening boom sounded, followed by the vine whips and Beastmen outside the tribe’s gates being swept away by this power.

Countless vine whips were broken and scorched by this force, turning into charred fragments swirling in the sky.

Numerous Mutated Beastmen were violently struck by this massive force, their bodies flying backward like broken kites, screaming mournfully as they crashed into the distant mountains and forests, the brittle sound of bones shattering echoing incessantly, causing heavy casualties.

The previously surging assault was immediately and forcibly halted.

The Beastmen of the Golden Leopard Tribe, feeling this power, shouted excitedly, "It’s Young Master Lian."

"Yes, Young Master Lian is taking action."

"Young Master Lian is protecting us, sheltering us."

Mei Qingchen seemed to be everyone’s belief; everyone felt his power, increasing their fighting spirit.

At the same time, that golden light gathered and formed above the tribe, manifesting a huge golden leopard phantom hovering in mid-air.

Its body was graceful, its fur shining like molten gold, its eyes like cold stars, surrounded by the oppressive aura interwoven with gold and black. Just perching in the air, the aura between heaven and earth was stalled.

Some Beastmen hiding in the shadows turned pale.

"Didn’t they say Mei Qingchen was critically injured and indisposed? How can he still release such power?"

"I don’t know, could it be that our information is wrong?"

"Leave quickly, he possesses the Purification Power, a bane to us all."

Everyone thought the information was wrong.

They originally believed something had happened to Mei Qingchen and took the opportunity to attack the Golden Leopard Tribe and plunder its resources.

Who would have thought Mei Qingchen was fine.

Being able to emit this power at least contradicted the rumors.

Everyone realized and quietly ordered, "Retreat!"

Thus, the Beastmen who invaded the tribe retreated.

After these Beastmen retreated, only bodies littering the ground and charred vine fragments remained, along with those cracks on the tribe’s stone walls.

Of course, the tribe’s gate needed to be rebuilt as well.

After the enemy retreated, the phantom form of Mei Qingchen was only then retrieved.

Su Muyao had naturally witnessed all this.

She could confirm that the present Mei Qingchen was indeed the real Mei Qingchen, without a doubt.

She had finally found him.

Su Muyao turned to enter the room, but just then, a turbulent power suddenly erupted within.

This power smashed through the door and aimed directly at her.

The power was so dangerous that it seemed out of control.

The blue stone slab beneath Su Muyao’s feet trembled slightly, the roof tiles overhead rattling, the entire stone house seemed gripped by an invisible giant hand, poised to crumble at any moment.

But she could feel that the house was enveloped by power.

It should have been Mei Qingchen who set up the force.

Jin Lin arrived back and witnessed this, his expression shifted dramatically, "No, the Young Master’s Spirit Sea has collapsed, he’s about to go berserk."

"Berserk?"

Jin Lin spoke, "Yes, the Young Master was not supposed to use his power anymore. To save the tribe, to deter others, he went ahead and used a powerful force, a power far exceeding his body’s limits."

"The Priest has stated, the Young Master can’t use such a force again, if the Young Master forcibly uses it, he might mutate and go berserk, becoming a wild beast devoid of reason, never able to awaken."

"Especially since his Spirit Sea was already half collapsed, no one can soothe his tumultuous Spirit Sea."

"Even if there were females capable of easing his spiritual power, they couldn’t approach the Young Master, his Spirit Sea seems to have a barrier, unreachable to outsiders, and impenetrable."
