Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1806: Chapter 1094: The Terrifying Demon Emperor

In fact, he did not know much about the Path of Spirit Giving, only having seen snippets in some ancient texts.

However, An Wusheng understood the meaning in his words, "Are you saying the Wanhua Demon Emperor controls the Returning Ruins Demon Flower?"

"Perhaps, but this old man has never seen the Wanhua Demon Emperor and is unaware of what kind of power the Demon Emperor possesses!" Chi Yuan replied.

An Wusheng narrowed his eyes.

A Spiritual Treasure that can command all things as soldiers is definitely the top treasure of the Wanhua Domain, even stronger than the Instrument of Authority.

The side effects of using the Instrument of Authority are too great. Unless in a situation of desperation, few are willing to use it.

But a Spiritual Treasure is different.

Although controlling a Spiritual Treasure is difficult, at least it doesn’t require sacrificing one’s lifespan.

If he can obtain a Spiritual Treasure, his strength would definitely increase significantly.

At this moment, An Wusheng felt greed, but he wasn’t swayed by it because he knew the Wanhua Demon Emperor is not an existence he can deal with.

The Wanhua Demon Emperor is extremely mysterious, with very little known about him by the world, and even the Demon Venerables and Demon Kings of the Wanhua Demon Court do not understand the Demon Emperor.

Yet, no one dares to underestimate the Demon Emperor’s power.

"No matter what he is, today, we must kill these Treemen!" Yellow Springs said with a cold smile.

"Indeed, we should deal with these bizarre Treemen first, then go to the Demon Ruins. Hmph, once we break through the Demon Ruins, let’s see if the Wanhua Demon Emperor can continue hiding like a turtle!" Ji Wusi agreed.

An Wusheng nodded slightly, "Then let’s strike together!"

As the words fell, several people simultaneously joined the battlefield.

Yet, as they joined the battle, the Treemen in the battlefield suddenly changed.

Countless Treemen gathered together, their roots connecting to roots, branches to branches, stacking like pagodas. In the blink of an eye, a hundred-zhang tall giant Treeman formed.

The thick tree roots pierced into the mountain rocks, seemingly penetrating the entire mountain, on the gigantic body appeared a demonic face.

"Want to occupy this land? Leave it to the Unpredictable Daoist Venerable. You nameless rabble, get far away from here!"

The rough voice roared like thunder, and simultaneously an unmatched force swept forth. An Wusheng, Ji Wusi, and Chi Yuan’s faces showed horror, but in the next moment, they were swept up by a huge tree root and blown away.

Really blown away, with urgent whistling sounds, the three instantly vanished into the sky, not knowing how far they were flung or how seriously they were injured.

The remaining Yellow Springs and Yu Yuan were almost scared witless, as they stared dumbfounded at the suddenly appearing huge Treeman.

"Ignorant fools, daring to provoke me, deserve death!"

The tree root lifted again, and Yellow Springs and Yu Yuan didn’t even think but retreated into the Void, yet it was meaningless.

The tree root penetrated the world’s barrier, pierced the void, and directly appeared in the Void, fiercely striking at them.

The next instant, they too were sent flying.

They were worse off because they were thrown toward the depths of the Void, better not to have entered it at all.

Just two swings of the tree roots repelled five Late-stage Golden Core cultivators, a strength that surpassed everyone’s imagination.

Yet this was only the beginning. After dealing with An Wusheng and others, the Wanhua Demon Emperor began clearing the Demon King Yin Soldiers.

At this moment, instead of sending them flying, the Emperor used tree roots to slam the Demon King Yin Soldiers into the mountain rocks.

Bang, Bang~~

The giant tree roots swung, each Demon King Yin Soldier was smacked down from the sky as if they were mere children, and in moments, over a dozen Demon King Yin Soldiers were all crashed to the ground, then dismembered by countless Treemen.

With the Wanhua Demon Emperor showing divine might, the army of ghost soldiers finally began to retreat.

A large number of ghost soldiers started fleeing northward, and tens of thousands of Treemen pursued relentlessly, their battlefield shifting north, spanning mountains and valleys.

No one knew how long it took, but eventually, the world quieted down, leaving only a desolate mountain forest.

The Unpredictable Ghost Sect was defeated again, but this time the defeat wasn’t absolute. The Wanhua Demon Emperor did not annihilate them completely, or rather he couldn’t, only pursuing them a thousand miles before ordering the Treemen to retreat.

The Treemen’s individual strength was slightly stronger than the ghost soldiers, but limitedly so; they might hold an advantage temporarily, but once the number of ghost soldiers increased significantly over time, the Treemen might fall into a disadvantage.

In terms of numbers, the Wanhua Demon Emperor’s Treemen were far less than the Unpredictable Ghost Sect’s ghost soldiers.

The Wanhua Demon Emperor didn’t want his Treemen to suffer too many casualties, so after pursuing a thousand miles, he retreated.

However, in this battle, the Wanhua Demon Emperor truly achieved a great victory.

...

In a secluded valley in the northern part of the Wanhua Mountain Range.

An Wusheng’s face was ashen as he glared at an elderly man with white hair, "Damn it, why didn’t you tell me the Demon Emperor had such a Treeman army!"

At this moment, his face was pale beyond belief; it was already quite pale before, pale as snow, but now it seemed almost eerie.

The strike from the Wanhua Demon Emperor didn’t seem heavy, but it seriously injured his Daoist Body, causing him to fly three thousand miles before crashing to the ground and not getting up for a long time.

If not for his considerable cultivation level, the Demon Emperor’s strike would have taken his life.
