Qingfeng Li pinched his fingers and broke the sharp end of the tree root, revealing the blood inside with a pungent, iron-like smell .
Needless to say, the tree root had devoured some humans and sucked their blood .
After the tree root was broken, a dozen more root twigs shot out from underground to avenge the broken one .
With so many root twigs shooting at him, Qingfeng Li couldn't block them with only two fingers .
He drew the Golden Light Sword and roared, "Sky-Roaming Golden Light . "
A golden sword aura storm formed in the air and cut into the dozen root twigs, breaking them all .
At the sight of Qingfeng Li's power, the remaining roots were frightened and retreated back underground .
Of course, he had scared off only one tree, and there were over 100 red ancient trees standing behind which were not afraid of Qingfeng Li .
"Boss, you are amazing," Daoist said, giving Qingfeng Li a thumbs-up .
A trace of admiration appeared on Alice's charming face . Since she joined Qingfeng Li's team, she had witnessed too many miracles, with Qingfeng Li becoming stronger each time .
As Qingfeng's woman, she had supported and encouraged him in her own silent way .
Qingfeng Li smiled faintly and didn't speak . Then he led the group to continue their journey .
They thought that the ancient red trees had stopped attacking them due to their fears, but they were sadly mistaken . When they walked into an area surrounded by over 100 ancient red trees, the ancient red trees launched attacks on them all at once .
Swoosh, swoosh…
Over one thousand roots shot up from underground . With a dozen or so roots for each tree, there were over one thousand roots attacking them .
The attacking roots were so dense that they blotted out the sky when they shot toward Qingfeng Li and others .
"What the f*ck, the ancient trees had gone mad," Seeing the thousand roots shooting toward him, Qingfeng Li cursed .
He knew that the roots were extremely hard and sharp and were thus extremely lethal .
He could use the Golden Light Sword to cut several dozen roots, but with more than 1,000, there were too many for him to defend against .
And he needed to protect the people around him as well .
Qingfeng Li decided to play his best card, Golden Flame . Since he could only use it twice each day, he still had one use of it today after burning off the devil's arm .
"Golden Flame . " With his thought, Qingfeng Li released the Golden Flame from his body .
The Golden Flame contained terrifying high temperature, and the moment it touched the roots, it burned them into flaming torches .
Some roots tried to run but the fire spread so quickly, and the temperature was so high that they had no time to run at all .
Rumble…
Thousands of roots burned into a pile of dust in a short while .
Since the roots were the essence and the source of strength of the ancient red trees, the trees died too when the roots were burned .
While one hundred or so trees died, there were still tens of thousands of ancient trees in the giant forest .
"The human is very powerful . I'm afraid we are no match for him . "
"Yeah, he emits a strong presence, and I guess he is at least a master above the Spirit King Realm . "
"We better retreat . "
At the sight of Qingfeng Li's power, the surrounding low tier demonic beasts' expressions all changed . They talked among themselves and backed off .
Of course, not all demonic beasts were afraid of Qingfeng Li . Some powerful ones were bold enough to continue to follow him .
"Boss, we still have demonic beasts following us," Daoist said with a backward glance .
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly, "It's okay . I will kill them if they dare to show their faces . "
With that said, he led the group to continue their journey . This time, he put Black Puppy at the front since its sensitive nose could smell the scent of the Cat of Fate .
Not long after their departure, several people came into the red forest, including Camilla, the Vampire Queen, and Xianxian Mu from Huaxia .
Xianxian Mu was with a handsome young man . On his back, he carried a big saber made of bamboo that was emitting a powerful presence .
At the sight of these two people, Camilla left quickly without starting a fight since her purpose was searching for the cat .
Qingfeng Li asked, "Black Puppy, have you found the scent of the Cat of Fate?"
Black Puppy nodded, "Yes, it's in the northeast direction and about twenty miles away . "
Pleased, Qingfeng Li led the group and ran in the northeast direction . They arrived at their destination shortly .
There was a big pond with an area of at least 500 square meters . The water in the pond was clear, and it reflected green light .
Most importantly, there were no trees around the pond within a distance of two kilometers . It was an open space with sunshine .
Upon arriving, Qingfeng Li told his group to extinguish their torches and turn off the flashlights since they were no longer needed .
"Puppy, where is the Cat of Fate?" Qingfeng Li asked Black Puppy after looking around .
Black Puppy pointed ahead and said, "It's hiding near that pond . "
Qingfeng Li looked around and found only trees, grass, flowers, and some hedges around the pond .
The flowers and ivy had grown very tall, some of them even taller than an adult . It would be hard to find a cat that was 20 centimeters at most among them .
Qingfeng Li found AlJohn, the Red Cloaked Cardinal, who was muttering to himself with the Book of Gods in his hand by the pond .
Besides AlJohn, many self-cultivators from the Tiger Continent were gathered .
They were members of the Holy See and other forces and they stood in the distance staring at the pond with greedy eyes .
"Boss, what's the old fellow doing?" pointing at Al John, Daoist asked .
After a moment's consideration, Qingfeng Li answered, "He is facing the pond saying something to the creatures in the pond . Is it possible that the Cat of Fate is in the pond?"
Black Puppy said, "The Cat of Fate can transform itself into different shapes including a water snake . It's possible that the cat is hiding in the pond . "
