Chapter 2879
byPerhaps hearing Yang Kai’s shout, an old face appeared on the trunk in front of Yang Kai and smiled slightly and said, “Wu Niu, we meet again.”
“Yes, we meet again. I didn’t expect to meet here.” Yang Kai wiped the blood on his face.
The old face said kindly, “Sure enough, I didn’t misread. You have grown very fast. Maybe the future will be yours.”
Yang Kai shook his head and didn’t comment on this, and asked curiously, “Senior, weren’t you in Frost Snow City? Is this your clone?”
“Clone? No, no, no, this is not a clone. This is me.”
Yang Kai’s expression became solemn, and he immediately realized something: “Senior, are you going to sacrifice yourself?”
Qing laughed heartily: “The boundary passage is too mysterious. There is only one way to block it. I have lived long enough and witnessed two invasions of the demons. Last time, I was unable to do anything. This time, I want to contribute. Over the years, I have also received a lot of care from the barbarians.”
“Perhaps there are other ways.” Yang Kai frowned.
The face on the trunk shook, as if shaking its head: “Once I leave from Frost Snow City, I can no longer go back.”
At this moment, Yang Kai understood a lot of things. The Evergreen Divine Tree had guarded Frost Snow City for tens of thousands of years and had never left. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but that he couldn’t. There should be some close connection between him and that piece of land.
But this time, in order to seal the World Channel, he left the land that had nurtured him for tens of thousands of years, condensed all his essence into a point, and hid it in that colorful mud, asking Yang Kai to bring it to the bottom of the World Channel.
This was an irreversible process. Qing’s current second growth was just a flashback.
Yang Kai was filled with solemn respect and said, holding his chest, “The Barbarian Race will see Senior’s sacrifice, and future generations will remember your contributions.”
Qing laughed heartily: “Don’t comfort me. I’m already prepared.” After a pause in his tone, Qing became much more serious: “Before this, I still need your help.”
“Senior, don’t worry. My Wu Niu Tribe will hold this place.”
“Good.” The old face nodded and then disappeared.
Yang Kai turned his head and looked at Die: “Why don’t you speak?”
Die said: “What should I say?”
“Did you already know?”
Die said: “That’s right.”
Yang Kai looked at her with a strange expression, trying to see some clues on her face. But Die’s expression was indifferent, as if she and Qing were strangers. Die was very different from when he first saw her two years ago. Her personality had changed dramatically, and Yang Kai even suspected whether she was still the same Die as before.
Shaking his head, he didn’t think about it anymore.
Qing’s rapid growth has never stopped. During the time when he was talking to Yang Kai, the huge Evergreen Divine Tree had grown from fifty zhang to one hundred zhang in height. Looking up, it was almost impossible to see where the crown of the tree was.
Everyone on the battlefield noticed this abnormal situation.
The barbarians cheered. Many people recognized that it was the patron saint of Frost Snow City. Under the excitement of shouting, more people learned this information, and for a while, the morale was greatly boosted, and everyone seemed to be rejuvenated.
Although Qing was only the patron saint of the Frost Snow Tribe, his reputation had long spread throughout all the large and small tribes of the barbarians. Although no one had ever seen Qing display his strength, everyone said that this was a powerful person comparable to a Wu Saint.
Because he was not a barbarian, the barbarians only had four saints, but he was another saint besides the saints.
At this moment, such a powerful help suddenly appeared on the chaotic battlefield. And it penetrated deep into the heart of the Demon Race army, naturally making the clansmen excited.
Everyone seemed to see the scene of the Demon Race’s army being defeated like a landslide and fleeing for thousands of miles. The appearance of Qing made the morale of the barbarians skyrocket, and the once stalemate battle situation actually faintly showed a tendency to tilt towards the barbarians.
In contrast, the demons were as if they had lost their parents. Although they didn’t know what the huge tree was exactly, the unknown was the most terrifying. Especially the huge and magnificent tree gave people a strong visual impact. And it was growing higher and higher, as if it was going to pierce through the sky. The green light covers outside the giant tree seemed to have a magical purification effect, and all the demonic energy that drifted past was purified completely.
Many demons who didn’t know the ins and outs wanted to rush over to destroy the growth of the giant tree Instead they were all killed by the great witches of the Wu Niu Tribe who were guarding beside it.
The sudden appearance of the Evergreen Divine Tree made the demons flustered for a while.
However, the situation soon stabilized. It seemed that someone had issued some order, and the demons began to form troops and arrays, and launched an attack on the Evergreen Divine Tree in an orderly manner.
The focus of the battlefield suddenly shifted to below the boundary path.
The Wu Niu Tribe endured unimaginable pressure. The demons from all directions rushed over like a tsunami, fearless of death. Even the Soul Devouring Insects couldn’t stop their charging pace.
The cavalry team of the Wu Niu Tribe, led by Ah Hu, continuously rotated around the giant tree, just like a long steel whip wrapped around the bottom of the giant tree. Wherever it passed, everything was devastated. The weapons were all chopped until the blades were rolled, and everyone’s body was covered in thick bloodstains.
The four remaining Demon Kings broke through the encirclement and returned. All of them were extremely exhausted and their complexions were pale.
Sha Ya didn’t die, but she was missing an arm. Bao Qi was nowhere to be seen. In Yang Kai’s perception, his life flame had already been extinguished. Obviously, he was killed by his former colleagues.
Less than thirty thousand Wu Niu Tribe members, one Wu King, six Demon Kings, and three Great Wizards. This was basically all the strength of the Wu Niu Tribe now. But the demons they had to face numbered in the hundreds of thousands or even millions, and there were as many as twenty or thirty Demon Kings.
This was a war with an extremely wide contrast, but it was also a war that could determine the final outcome.
There was no need for Yang Kai to mobilize. All the barbarians knew that they were shouldering a heavy responsibility. They fought bravely, disregarded their own lives, and killed all the enemies they could kill as much as possible.
The number of demons killed by Yang Kai exceeded twenty thousand, and there were even five or six Demon Kings. But in the face of this large-scale battle, no matter how strong an individual’s strength was, it still seemed too insignificant, unless one could have the strength of a Wu Saint.
The Wu Niu Tribe gradually couldn’t withstand the encirclement and suppression of the demons, and the defense circle once shrank.
Thirty thousand people became twenty thousand, and then became fifteen thousand.
The few thousand cavalry of Ah Hu had less than one thousand left. Everyone was covered in blood, both their own and the enemies’. The weapons in the hands of the cavalry had been changed several times.
Yang Kai continuously took out spirit pills and elixirs and gave them to the wizards of the Wu Niu Tribe. Even the six demon kings had received a lot of supplements.
It was precisely relying on these pills that everyone was able to persist until now.
The crown of the Evergreen Divine Tree had already soared into the clouds and completely disappeared from sight. As long as he was given enough time, he would eventually be able to reach the location of the world passage.
Time, the most crucial thing now is time.
Obviously, the demons would not give the Wu Niu Tribe this opportunity.
A more ferocious attack was launched. Although the Wu Niu Tribe fought for defended, they still couldn’t resist. The huge disadvantage in numbers made the Wu Niu Tribe have no solution.
A chaotic sound came. Yang Kai turned his head and looked. He saw that the clansmen of the Wu Niu Tribe over there had suffered heavy casualties. The already precarious defense circle was finally breached by the demons, and a large number of demons poured in from that gap and killed wantonly.
Yang Kai flashed and rushed over. The sword lights of a million swords shot out, and with his own strength, he blocked this gap, giving the surrounding clansmen the opportunity to buffer and reinforce the defense.
But the next moment, another gap was opened on the other side.
Yang Kai shouted loudly. Fei Li immediately rushed over. The pitch-black skeleton was burning with green flames, as if it was going to burn everything in the world to the ground, blocking the advancing pace of the demons.
A third gap appeared…
The defensive circle of the Wu Niu Tribe was like a dilapidated house, leaking everywhere in the rainy night. Countless demons broke through the defensive circle, leaving a part to entangle the tribesmen of the Wu Niu Tribe, and the other part all rushed towards the Evergreen Divine Tree.
Some of them gathered under the tree roots, brandishing the weapons in their hands and hacking at it desperately, as if they wanted to chop down the Evergreen Divine Tree. Many more demons leaped onto the tree trunk and began to wreak havoc wantonly.
Yang Kai’s eyes were about to split open, and he wished he could have a million clones.
Just at this critical moment, a commotion suddenly came from the periphery. While the ground trembled, a dense sound of weapons clashing rang out, interspersed with intermittent miserable cries.
A incomplete barbarian team suddenly appeared in Yang Kai’s field of vision. The leader was a Wu King. Yang Kai looked familiar and seemed to be a Wu King of the Frost Snow Tribe.
In the past two years, Yang Kai had also dealt with many Wu Kings. Even if he didn’t have a deep friendship with them, he had met them several times.
He wouldn’t remember wrongly. This Wu King was definitely from the Frost Snow Tribe.
A dragon of ice ****** was in the hand of that Wu King, shuttling among the battlefield, greatly alleviating the urgent need of the Wu Niu Tribe. Then he shouted loudly, “Kill!”
The tribesmen of the Frost Snow Tribe shouted in response. The morale of the Wu Niu Tribe rose for a while. They cooperated with them from within and without and quickly welcomed them into the defensive circle.
Not many people from the Frost Snow Tribe came, only five thousand. But they obviously paid an extremely heavy price.
The Wu Niu Tribe was able to advance all the way here relying on the powerful combat power of ten Demon Kings and Yang Kai. Obviously, the Frost Snow Tribe didn’t have so many Wu Kings to squander. Maybe there were one hundred thousand people or two hundred thousand people when they set off, but only five thousand were left when they arrived here.
The unimaginable price made them finally arrive in front of the Divine Tree.
That Wu King nodded at Yang Kai, as if greeting him, and said, “Now it’s our turn to protect the Divine Tree.”
The Evergreen Divine Tree has protected the Frost Snow Tribe for tens of thousands of years, making the Frost Snow Tribe free from natural disasters and man-made disasters and allowing the Frost Snow Tribe to live and multiply comfortably. Today, tens of thousands of years later, the Frost Snow Tribe has come with gratitude and wants to use their own flesh and blood to build an impregnable wall to protect the Divine Tree from harm.
“It’s very timely!” Yang Kai grinned and smiled.
That Wu King gently nodded. When he waved his hand, the five thousand people behind him automatically scattered to both sides. The strong warriors joined the defensive sequence, but one thousand people were still left.
Yang Kai’s gaze swept over those thousand people, and his whole body trembled, revealing an expression of incredulity.
Because he discovered that all of these thousand people were actually Witches!
