Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 341: Chapter 338 Half-Plane Temptation of the Evil God

Qin Feng stood at a distance, his face a mixture of shock and doubt as he looked at the ancient tree that almost obscured the entire valley.

He felt an immense Spiritual Power and pressure emanating from this ancient tree.

That meant this was no ordinary tree, but a Tree Demon with formidable strength.

As if to confirm his suspicion, a massive spider suddenly burst out of a cave deep in the valley.

This was an eighth-tier upper-rank Demon Spider, robust in Magic Power and quite formidable among its peers.

Before the cave spider had taken a few steps, however, the ancient tree suddenly swung a huge branch and violently lashed out, striking the giant spider dead.

…

Witnessing such might, Qin Feng’s face stiffened, and he promptly abandoned the thought of stealthily passing through the valley entrance.

Had he been struck by the ancient tree, he might have been blasted apart in his Physical Body as well.

Although he did not know the specific strength of the ancient tree, it might only have great physical strength, and ordinary spiritual power, perhaps unable to detect him, but Qin Feng felt somewhat apprehensive and dared not recklessly barge in.

While he hesitated, a large number of Demon Spiders of the fourth and fifth-tier strength surged out from the depths of the valley entrance, driven by an unknown urging cry to frenetically burrow outward.

These Demon Spiders were too numerous, densely covering the ground.

Even with the Elf Clan Mages continuously unleashing various magics to exterminate them, and more Elves shooting arrows relentlessly, they still couldn’t completely stop those Demon Spiders, especially with the endless stream still pouring out from behind.

Devoid of any real intelligence, these Demon Spiders climbed outwards driven by bloodthirsty instinct, their crimson eyes looking toward the Elf Clan shining ferociously.

Just then, among the branches and leaves of the ancient tree, fruits that were once plentiful suddenly burst open, their seeds shooting out with an incredibly fast speed towards the Demon Spiders.

In just one sweep, the majority of the Demon Spiders on the ground were eradicated, immediately lightening the burden of the Elves.

“Damn, this is the Elf Clan’s War Ancient Tree!”

Qin Feng suddenly realized.

He had seen records of the War Ancient Tree in the annals of Druidism, a powerful war machine that the Elf Clan created with the Divine Power of the Elf Goddess, transforming trees that had grown for over ten thousand years.

Each War Ancient Tree was an incredibly powerful war machine. Were it not for their scarcity and slow movement speed, making them more suitable for defensive rather than offensive use, the Elf Clan might have been able to unify the continent with these War Ancient Trees alone.

It was said that to resist a Demon invasion ten thousand years ago, the Elf Clan deployed their entire collection of War Ancient Trees, astonishingly mobilizing thousands at once. They lined up and staunchly blocked the Demons from advancing for three years, buying precious time for all races to prepare for battle.

Had there not been an unexpected turn of events where a Demon Lord led the assault that destroyed many of their War Ancient Trees, depleting the Elf Clan’s resources, perhaps the Elf Clan would not have suffered such heavy losses in that war, and they would not have been forced to retreat to the Elf Forest.

Qin Feng had also read accounts of Druids who had spent a great deal in an attempt to buy the Demon Core of a War Ancient Tree from the Elf Clan to transform themselves into one.

Regrettably, no Elf paid any attention to that particular Druid’s request.

The War Ancient Tree was an excellent weapon for the Elf Tribe to defend their homeland, so naturally, they would not sell it to outsiders.

In fact, not every Elf Tribe in the Elf Clan had the protection of a War Ancient Tree.

Only those large tribes with many people would possess a War Ancient Tree.

And every Elf Tribe that owned a War Ancient Tree would rapidly develop and become a large tribe. Searᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Qin Feng looked at the War Ancient Tree, feeling somewhat excited.

If he could bring such a powerful War Ancient Tree back to his own family to preside over it, it would surely guarantee the family’s long-term prosperity.

After all, War Ancient Trees had a long lifespan. If he himself could not become an Immortal, even if his life reached its end, the War Ancient Tree would still thrive.

Unfortunately, it was just wishful thinking on his part.

Considering the immense aura and killing power emitted by the War Ancient Tree, it had at least the strength of a Super Demon Beast, capable of contending with Dharma Image Cultivators without any issue.

Such a formidable being was by no means something he could subdue at present.

Nor was it something their small Qin Family could possess.

However, it was always good to hold onto a thought.

Qin Feng thought to himself, while also quietly observing the battle from afar.

It was not until many Elf Clan Experts arrived from a distance and once they put forth their combined efforts, they wiped out the large number of Demon Spiders in the cave, deterring the deeper Dark Creatures from approaching, that they resealed the cave entrance.

Qin Feng lowered his presence to the minimum, as there were too many Elf Clan Experts in the valley at that time, and he didn’t dare to act recklessly.

However, he noticed that these Elf Clan Experts seemed to be accustomed to the existence of this cave as well as the Dark Creatures inside it, so after resealing the cave, they didn’t linger for long and quickly left one after another, leaving only the Elves who were originally guarding the place.

Seeing this, Qin Feng quietly let out a sigh of relief.

After such a long observation, he had found that although the War Ancient Tree was strong, its Spiritual Intelligence was not very high, and the Elf Elders who originally presided over this place had drained too much in the previous battle. Qin Feng felt that he still had a chance to sneak in for a look.

So he bypassed the entrance of the valley and went to the back of the valley. Using Earth Escape Divine Power, he directly burrowed into the ground, avoiding the War Ancient Tree’s massive root system to prevent accidentally attracting its attention.

Finally, he arrived in the cave cautiously. Qin Feng found that although the Elf Clan’s sealing was tight, it ultimately left him a window of opportunity.

Perhaps because the cave walls were incredibly thick and reinforced by Elves with magic, they weren’t worried that the Dark Creatures would dig holes in the rock walls and crawl out.

However, the strong stone walls that could stop those Dark Creatures could not stop him.

The wonder of the Earth Escape Divine Power was beyond what those Elves, who had never seen such a technique, could imagine.

Therefore, Qin Feng carefully bypassed the Elves’ Magic Restrictions and sneaked into deeper parts of the cave.

The depths of the cave were pitch-black, so dark one could barely see their own hand in front of them, except for some dim light near the seals, which illuminated a short distance.

As soon as Qin Feng emerged, he was ambushed by several Demon Spiders that had remained behind.

He slightly furrowed his brows, and his Divine Sense instantaneously swept across the area ahead, discovering that there were no intelligent life forms lingering in the deeper regions, which allowed him to let out a slight sigh of relief. The Ruyi Golden Light in his hand shot out like a rain of needles, instantly killing all the Demon Spiders on the spot.

After retracting the Ruyi Golden Light that had regathered, he didn’t bother with the several Intermediate Demon Beast spiders on the ground and proceeded directly along the tunnel’s passageway, heading deeper into it.

The depth of this passageway was unknown; Qin Feng followed the passage through several turns, feeling that he must have delved dozens of miles underground, yet he still hadn’t reached the end.

If it weren’t for his nose easily picking up various residual scents in the passageway, reminding him that those dark creatures in the previous cavern hadn’t left too long ago, he would have suspected that he was trapped in a Ghost Wall.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but be amazed; was this so-called underground world really so vast?

While he was puzzled, the Swallowing Sky Toad suddenly opened its mouth and called out a few times.

In the pitch-black and empty cavern, the calls of the Swallowing Sky Toad echoed back and forth, making Qin Feng feel somewhat hair-raising, fearing that he might attract the attention of some powerful entities deep within the cavern.

However, after understanding the Swallowing Sky Toad’s intentions through the Binding Spell, he couldn’t help but be overjoyed.

Because the Swallowing Sky Toad had sensed fluctuations of Space Power in this passageway.

Although these spatial fluctuations weren’t like those of a world node, and were more akin to the fluctuations at the entrance to a Half-Plane space, Qin Feng was still very excited.

After all, this was the first time in a long while that the Swallowing Sky Toad had felt such strong spatial fluctuations; a good beginning.

Continuing along the passageway for a few more miles, mushrooms emanating a dim glow began to appear on the walls of the cave, bringing a bit of light to this pitch-dark space.

At the same time, a faint red light could vaguely be seen in the distance.

That was the exit of the passageway.

“At last, I’m about to reach the end.”

Qin Feng sighed inwardly and carefully extended his Divine Sense, discovering that the atmosphere outside was mixed and clearly many dark creatures were present.

He had just descended and was not keen on fighting these unknown dark creatures.

Therefore, he used the Earth Escape Divine Power once again, bypassing the mouth of the passageway underground. After traveling about ten miles, he quietly emerged from beneath the ground.

He flew high and looked far into the distance, carefully observing the direction of the passageway’s opening.

Then he noticed that the entrance on this side was also located within a valley.

Only, beyond the valley, a city had been built.

Inside the city, there were many Dark Elves.

Clearly, this was one of the territories of the Dark Elves.

After only a brief look, Qin Feng didn’t linger.

Flying so high alone, he could easily attract the attention of some powerful beings, it was better to leave this delicate area discreetly.

This was an exit; he didn’t want to provoke trouble here. It would be best to leave it as it was so that after he found a suitable place to set up a Positioning Array, he could return through here.

As for investigating news of the Underground World, he could explore other areas; there was no need to disturb the creatures emerging from the passage’s entrance.

At first glance, this piece of the Underground World seemed somewhat similar to the Red Flame Demon Realm.

Because in the distance, one could often see volcanoes erupting, and the hot lava could be seen flowing.

It was because of the existence of those volcanoes that this underground space appeared dark red.

The ground was further covered with various plants emitting a fluorescent glow, such as mushrooms and small trees, which appeared quite novel to the onlooker.

What was different here from the Red Flame Demon Realm was the absence of profound Demonic Qi.

However, Qin Feng also sensed a muddle of chaotic aura from the elemental fluctuations here.

It was not only the chaos in the Elemental Power, but the air seemed to flow with an oppressive and crazed aura, making one’s personality easily twisted if they stayed here for an extended period.

This caused Qin Feng to frown inwardly; he found it very abnormal. This feeling, if it wasn’t for this underground space’s unique breath, then there were only two explanations that could make sense.

One was that the creatures here had been in constant strife for years, ceaselessly fighting and killing each other, causing this world to be imbued with such an aura over countless years.

The other possibility was that a being controlling a certain Rule Power had used their power to influence this space, causing chaos to arise here.

If that were the case, it would be terrifying.

In Qin Feng’s mind, the legends of the Evil God involuntarily surfaced.

It was said that there were no Dark Elves tens of thousands of years ago.

The Dark Elves only appeared after the failed invasion war waged by Demons.

According to legend, an Evil God who couldn’t accept defeat hid in the Underground World and then tempted the Elves living on the surface to betray their faith and begin worshipping the Evil God.

The original Dark Elves even caused significant harm to the Elf Clan. In the end, the Elf Clan would stop at nothing to completely exterminate all Dark Elves when the Evil God, unwilling to see such heavy losses among his followers, led the Dark Elves into the Underground World.

This event caused a huge stir. Initially, the various races on the continent treated it as a joke.

However, as more underground passageways began to appear across the lands, and more creatures from various races were tempted by the Evil God, the continent’s races panicked and joined forces to combat the followers of the Evil God on the surface. They sealed off all passageways from the Underground World to the surface, effectively cutting off contact with the Underground World.

Still, occasional news about underground creatures would surface.

The continent’s races and major Churches have always been relentless in hunting down the followers of the Evil God.

The Evil God’s methods of tempting followers were simply too malevolent, capable of twisting the nature of intelligent beings. Even people originally very kind-hearted could become vicious, cunning, and cruel under the Evil God’s influence, causing great harm to their own kind.

Many of the continent’s powerful races had suffered such harm; therefore, among the dark creatures of the Underground World, there were quite many races.
