The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1018 Tree Monster

In the distance, white wisps appeared from the sky from the top of the mountain while below the mountain the dense old forest covered the stiff grey mountain along with a thick fog. Zhao Li Xin, Lory, and the four palace lords jumped on top of the branches of trees with steps as light as feathers while Lory and Zhao Li Xin flew gracefully against the wind, but suddenly thick vines burst out among the trees and struck toward their direction.

Swiftly, fortunately, they were able to dodge on time, but more vines emerged from within the forest, seeing this Jin Hao Bei Li Yan and others immediately took out their weapons and then swing their weapon at the wild vines that try to grab them.

Zhao Li Xin, who was annoyed by the presence of these annoying vines then threw a huge fireball into the forest and the fire grew rapidly not long after they heard a long roar from inside the forest. Lory then made a transparent circle in the air for everyone to land on.

"Is that a Lesser Demon?" Bei Li Yan sharpened his gaze down the forest but a mixture of thick fog and smoke from Zhao Li Xin's fire blocked his view, but another loud roar seemed to answer his question suddenly dozens of large dark green vines shoot up from within the forest and attacked them like giant green snake.

They jumped again and then spread out while swinging their swords between the thick tree roots that attacked them fiercely from every direction.

"Ugh, I hate monster plants!" Wu San Bo snorted, he suddenly remembered the Flower Demon he met in the whispering forest, what made things worse was he remembered how hard they dealt with the creature.

Bei Li Yan swung his long whip which then tore at the vines that trying to sneaked behind Wu San Bo, "Come on, it's not too bad" Bei Li Yan playfully said but another veins circle around trying to wrapped them, quickly they pressed their backs together while guarding each other for another attack to come.

Suddenly from the middle of the forest there was a creature that looked like a tree cover with overgrown tree branches growing on the creatures head and body make the creature looked like a giant tree.

[Lory. I think that...] Girsha was flabbergasted.

"That's a Treant" Lory held her breath.

Zhao Li Xin heard the worry in Lory's voice then asked "What is Treant?"

Everyone turned to look at Lory waiting for an answer. Lory took a deep breath while summoning the bow from her spatial ring then said "A primordial creatures that ruled the forest during the first kind, but they should have been extinct long before most of the first kind became extinct"

[Since I'm still here isn't strange maybe there are Treants still left...? ] Girsha could only guess, she herself didn't expect to see Treants because the last time she saw this creature was when she was very young, so seeing Treants especially in the world of cultivators was very confusing.

"My guess this is Lazarus' work" Lory pursed her lips, though she wasn't sure how Lazarus do it but she was sure he was the one behind it.

The Treant roared loudly then stretched out his arms like vines towards Lory and the others, Zhao Li Xin created a wall of fire to block the creature's attack, the heat from the fire made the Treant retract his hand and the creature screeched in pain.

Taking that opportunity Lory and the others charge toward the giant Treant. Jin Hao and the others drew their weapons at the creature at the same time while Lory took an upward position and released her arrows and Zhao Li Xin infused his immortal fire to Lory arrow and the arrow covered in golden flames shot swiftly like bullets towards the giant tree creature's head.

It managed to pierce through one of the creature's eyes, however, the creature's eyelids closed just in time to block the arrow from penetrating its eyeball but still, it startled the creature and stumbled backward then Jiang Jin Wei swung his giant sword which then slashed neatly the creature's hand that looked like thick vines, at that moment Bei Li Yan grabbed the vines' trunk with his whip and threw it at the creature's face causing the creature to fall backward with a loud sound.

Jin Hao made a long jump and then plunged with his sword pointing between the creature's eyes, as soon as the sword managed to pierce the creature's head, suddenly branches shot out of the creature's body and tried to swallow Jin Hao but Zhao Li Xin come and then he torched the entire branch to ashes giving Jin Hao time to jump away from the creatures.

The Treant became furious, the creatures make a long roared into the sky and suddenly all the trees around them withered, the green leaves turned brown and were once lush green forest suddenly dried up soon the whole area around them turned into a barren forest, meanwhile the Treant body grew even bigger, all the wound on its body gradually healed and the skin that was made of tree bark suddenly turned into blackish metal.

Everyone is stunned especially Lory and Girsha because Treants are known as protectors of the forest, they only show their hostility to other creatures that try to ruin their territory but they never attack their own kin which is plant.

[Be careful Lory, this is no ordinary Treant!] Girsha warned through their telepathic connection.

[Tell me, I've never read Treants can change their appearance, could the books be wrong?] Lory's eyes fell on the Treant which was covered with blackish metal from top to bottom, Lory then let out a heavy sigh as she realized it wouldn't be easy to hurt the creature next time.

[No, no....that must be what Lazarus did!] Girsha's voice was filled with conviction.

"That snake, really pissed me off" Lory sneered, he released several arrows filled with ice power in one strike, unfortunately, the arrows couldn't penetrate the creature's hard skin instead Lory attracted the creature's attention.

The creature opened its palm then the remaining of the dead tree gathered together then turned into a sword which was then completely covered by the same black metal.

"Talk about recycling..." Lory raised her brows.

<strong>"LORY!!"</strong> Zhao Li Xin screams anxiously as he watches the creatures lunge toward Lory with its giant sword.

Lory remained calm and steady, he jumped back as well and then raised his hands in front of him as Lucient's shield enveloped him and the creature's sword hit the Lucient's shield creating powerful waves that spread for miles away. Zhao Li Xin didn't wait any longer, with body covered with golden flames, Zhao Li Xin shot toward the creature like a meteor.

The Treant sensed the threat, he then crossed it with a transparent black shield filled with dark power stopping Zhao Li Xin's attack, Jin Hao and the others didn't stay still either, together they attacked the giant metal Treant, unfortunately, their attacks didn't scratch the creature. it only made the Treants angrier and unleashed a powerful attack that injured Jin Hao and the others.

Bei Li Yan was rolling on the ground when a rock suddenly fell on him, Bei Li Yan didn't have time to dodge but suddenly Jiang Jin Wei slide beside him then covered Bei Li Yan with an iron shield, at the same time Jin Hao and Wu San Bo smashed the rock that nearly knocked Bei Li Yan to pieces

Fortunately, because of Jiang Jin Wei's quick moves, Bei Li Yan was protected from the shards, Bei Li Yan let out a long exhale, he realized it was too close for comfort.

"Who said he didn't want to die a virgin?" Jiang Jin Wei teased him.

"Hey, less chat-more fight!" Jin Hao reprimands them sternly meanwhile his gaze remaining on the creature's movements

"Yeah, stop acting like a girl, women don't like that....then in the end you will die as a virgin" Wu San Bo muttered the last sentence quietly.

Bei Li Yan rolls his eyes, though he does feel grateful for his brother's help but still didn't change the fact that they were annoying.

"I'm coming!" Bei Li Yan grabbed Jiang Jin Wei's hand to stand up, he tied up his hair in a hurry with an annoyed look on his face he picked up his red whip from the ground and snorted loudly, "I will kill this dam* tree creature!"

"Then you must hurry before our Lord kills the creature first." Jiang Jiang Wei chuckle as he watched Zhao Li Xin beat the creature mercilessly.𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎
