Chapter 78: Wood Spirit Ancestor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

An hour later.

At the end of the Wood Spirit Forbidden Land, Mo Xiao casually killed a Flame Flower Vine.

He surveyed the surrounding environment.

According to the map display, he had already walked through the entire cave, which was the Wood Spirit Forbidden Land.

In theory, this should be the place to encounter the boss, and after defeating it, he should have encountered the NPC for the mission.

But now, not only was there no boss, there was not even a passage or door. There were no clues related to the mission.

“What’s going on… Could it be that the person I’m looking for isn’t in this cave?”

Just as Mo Xiao was feeling puzzled, a weak voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

“The owner of the Dragonite Jade… Could you please save me?”

“Who’s there!”

Hearing this voice, Mo Xiao drew out the Four Symbols Heavy Sword once again.

“I am the elder of the Wood Secret Realm, the Ancestor of the Wood Spirits. I am right behind the stone wall in front of you. Can you release me?”

[Mission updated!]

[You have found an extraordinary being. Smash the wall and rescue the

Ancestor of the Wood Spirits!]

Mo Xiao, who had been hesitating, immediately slashed with his sword without thinking after hearing the mission prompt.

-15,820!

Although the damage was very terrifying, the stone wall in front of him only trembled slightly and stopped moving.

“Oh? So sturdy?” Mo Xiao was taken aback by this scene. “Detecting technique!”

[Evil Energy Barrier, HP: 984,180/1,000,000]

“Your barrier’s HP is ridiculously high!”

Seeing the number in front of him, even Mo Xiao could not help but widen his eyes.

Although he was surprised, this amount of HP was nothing to Mo Xiao.

It wasn’t that thick. He could just keep slashing until it broke.

“Dragon Wings!

“Power Halo!

“Brutal Power!

“Full-strength attack!

“Shattering Mountains and Rivers!”

Explosive fireball!

“Soul Extinguishing Black Flame!”

“Cloud-Piercing Thrust!!”

Muttering to himself, Mo Xiao once again activated his skills and poured them onto the barrier.

-122,728!

-317,040!

Immediately, countless high numbers flickered on the barrier.

In just a few minutes, the barrier in front of him was instantly filled with cracks and shattered.

As the barrier shattered, a huge cave appeared in front of Mo Xiao.

Unlike the places Mo Xiao had passed before, there were no flames here. Instead, it was a quiet and peaceful underground forest.

“A lush cave?” Mo Xiao looked at the scene in front of him and paused for a moment before asking, “Wood Spirit Ancestor, where are you?”

“Eh, you’re actually a human?”

At this moment, the largest tree in the cave suddenly twisted its body.

Then, a benevolent and gentle face appeared on its massive trunk.

“This is…”

[Wood Spirit Ancestor, Diamond Elite Boss]

Attributes: ???

Level: ???

Introduction: The root existence of the Wood Secret Realm. The Wood Secret Realm exists because of it. If it dies, the Wood Secret Realm will disappear as well.

“A diamond-level boss… Does this guy want me to fight it too?”

Seeing this title, Mo Xiao couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

“I don’t have any combat abilities; otherwise, 1 wouldn’t be confined here.”

The Wood Spirit Ancestor said calmly.

“Are you confined here? But you’re a tree, and you should be growing here, right?”

Mo Xiao said instinctively.

When the Wood Spirit Ancestor heard this, he shook his head slightly and said, “I transformed into the form of a tree because my purification ability is the strongest in this state. I can resist the corrosion of evil aura.”

As he spoke, the huge body of the Wood Spirit Ancestor suddenly emitted a dazzling green light.

After a while, it turned into an old man, but its limbs were entwined by scarlet vines.

It seemed to have grown with its body.

“Human, you are the one chosen by the Dragonite Jade, please save me.” The Wood Spirit Ancestor pleaded.

Mo Xiao glanced at the scarlet vines wrapped around the Wood Spirit Ancestor. He recognized them.

They were undoubtedly Scarlet Demon Vines.

But for Mo Xiao, killing people was something he could do, but saving them was a whole different story.

“Then, Wood Spirit Ancestor, what should 1 do?” Mo Xiao asked doubtfully, “Just cut these things apart?”

“No.” The Wood Spirit Ancestor shook his head and said, “These vines have already grown together with me. Unless you kill me, it’s absolutely impossible to cut them off. IVLy life force is simply too huge.”

“Then what should 1 do?” Mo Xiao was just about to raise his heavy sword to take a look when he heard the Wood Spirit Ancestor’s words and stopped.

The Wood Spirit Ancestor looked at Mo Xiao and said, “1 believe in you. You will definitely have a way.”

“What’s the use of believing in me! You have to teach me how to do it!”

[Mission updated!]

[You have found the imprisoned Wood Spirit Ancestor. He is cursed. Please remove the curse and save the Wood Spirit Ancestor, saving the entire Wood Secret Realm!]

“I’m a f*cking combat professional! How can I come into contact with curses…”

Before Mo Xiao could finish speaking, he suddenly paused.

Lift the curse?

Can I really do it?

Thinking of this, Mo Xiao walked directly to the scarlet vines.

“Sacred Radiance!”

In the next moment, his body instantly lit up with holy light.

Then, he slashed at the vines.

-0

Immediately, a huge 0 appeared on the vines.

Clearly, Mo Xiao’s attack had not even broken through the defense of the Wood Spirit Ancestor.

“It won’t work, child. IVLy defense is too strong. It’s impossible for you to cut it off directly.” The Wood Spirit Ancestor shook his head gently when he saw this.

“Alright, looks like my Radiance level is too low. It’s useless.”

Mo Xiao put away the Four Symbols Heavy Sword and dispelled the Sacred Radiance.

“Little Gray, come out.”

With a call from Mo Xiao, Little Gray instantly appeared in front of him.

“Howl-”

At the cute sound, the Wood Spirit Ancestor’s eyes instantly widened.

“Heavenly Spirit Auspicious Beast Cub?! How is this possible?!”

The Wood Spirit Ancestor said in shock, “Isn’t the Heavenly Spirit Auspicious Beast already extinct?! Why is it still here?!”

“I don’t know either. In any case, it should be able to save you.” Mo Xiao couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath and directly instructed Little Gray, “Little Gray, use Divine Spirit Radiance on those vines and save this Wood Spirit Ancestor.”

When Little Gray heard this, it cried out obediently and quickly ran to the Wood Spirit Ancestor.

The next moment, a gentle holy light erupted from Little Gray’s body.

This light, both in intensity and range, was much stronger than the Sacred Radiance that Mo Xiao had used before.

With the appearance of the Divine Spirit Radiance, the red vines that were entwined around the Wood Spirit Ancestor’s body suddenly burst into golden flames.

Although no damage could be seen, the vines gradually turned into ashes and disappeared..
