When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 254 Mu Zu Makes a Move

At this time, within the army, with the minority obeying the majority, the situation in this place was ultimately not communicated to the ancestors.

They even sent out some immortal lords to monitor those stubborn factions who wanted to inform the ancestor.

Upon seeing this, the immortal lords roared angrily, "Let the ancestor think of a way now, perhaps we can still reduce some of the losses."

They even captured that human.

If not.

If we are completely wiped out, will we be worthy of our ancestors' upbringing?

How can you face your fallen colleagues?

Amidst the continuous insults, a few dissenting immortals, though more mild-mannered, said to them, "We know all that you're saying."

But you've seen the current situation.

Even though the ancestor captured that human after losing two divine weapons, the situation remained unchanged.

We're doomed too.

We might as well take a gamble ourselves; maybe we can find a way to survive.

Besides, although our cultivation level is like that of ants in the eyes of our ancestors.

But the way our ancestors acted this time has truly chilled the hearts of many.

So stop yelling and cursing, it's useless.

If you really anger everyone, be careful I don't drag you out and use you as bait to lure the human ants.

After saying that, the immortal lord fell silent.

In his heart, he believed that by doing this, they could be considered to have a clear conscience, both towards their ancestor and towards their deceased colleagues.

Time flies, and a month has passed since Zhu Chongjiu fully recovered.

He was still tirelessly using his authority as the Wood Ancestor to harass the immortal lords who wielded divine weapons.

Just as Zhu Chongjiu had guessed, the immortal lord was replaced by a newcomer before he could even exhaust himself.

Both sides are now waiting for the other to make a mistake.

When Zhu Chongjiu saw that one of the immortal lords was already showing signs of spiritual energy depletion, he did not make a move.

Instead, he smiled and said, "You can play me."

When it comes to an actor's self-cultivation, you still have a long way to go!

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu put a new straw in his mouth.

After acting for so long, the immortal lord finally couldn't withstand the pressure.

Erupted!

He then released his true form, wielding a divine greatsword, and began to launch random attacks on the surrounding area.

Under the attack of this immortal lord, the earth churned, flames soared into the sky, and vast stretches of dense forest collapsed.

However, he seemed to have forgotten the taboos of the Divine Tree Palace.

After the immortal lord unleashed five consecutive sword strikes, a gigantic, boundless, emerald-green giant hand suddenly appeared in the originally clear sky.

This giant, translucent, emerald-green hand was pressing down on the immortal lord wielding a giant sword.

Upon witnessing this, Zhu Chongjiu was so shocked that he jumped up from the tree trunk.

"Holy crap, is this the power of the Wood Ancestor?"

No wonder people say that he was just one step away from becoming a Celestial Venerable.

Thinking of this, Zhu Chongjiu remembered Senior Xuanzhen.

Senior Xuanzhen was just one step away from reaching the Heavenly Venerable level.

Back then, Senior Xuanzhen was able to suppress two Immortal Emperors so much that they couldn't move simply by using his aura.

From this perspective, even within the same level, the gap can be so enormous.

As Zhu Chongjiu pondered this, he watched the giant palm slowly press down on the immortal lord below.

At this moment, the immortal lord revealed his true form, which was a million feet long, and wielded a divine weapon giant sword that was tens of thousands of feet long. He slashed twice at the giant palm that was pressing down on him.

But it was clear that the two swords had no effect whatsoever on the giant hand in the air.

The moment the energy released by the giant sword came into contact with the giant hand, the giant hand only trembled slightly twice.

Then two deafening sounds erupted.

It is in contrast to others.

The immortal lord who witnessed this scene was now disheartened.

Because he knew that no one would come to his rescue.

Thinking of this, the immortal lord also displayed the demeanor of an immortal lord.

His true form, wielding a divine sword, soared straight into the sky.

It crashed into that giant hand.

With a loud bang, blood rained down.

Along with the rain of blood, the innate supreme weapon also fell.

At the same time, the voice of the Wood Ancestor also resounded within the world of the Divine Wood Immortal Palace.

"You have destroyed so many of my sentient beings, so use your flesh and blood, my immortal lord, to nourish this land!"

Zhu Chongjiu, who had been watching the area, ignored Mu Zu's voice.

Instead, the moment the divine weapon falls, one must teleport there to retrieve it.

However, just as he was about to activate teleportation, an anomaly occurred.

He discovered that his permissions were invalid.

At the same time, the voice of Mu Zu echoed in my mind.

"Look what you've done to my world!"

How many living plants have died because of me?

Do you know how many years it takes for a plant to develop sentience from birth?

You've had your fun!

Upon hearing Mu Zu's reprimand, Zhu Chongjiu quickly smiled apologetically at the void and said, "Senior Mu Zu, I'm really sorry."

When I have mastered my divine skills, I will surely come to make up for your loss.

Then let me present you with the divine weapon as a gift to apologize. Is that alright with you?

If that doesn't work, I'll try to get you two more!

No, no, I mean I'll find you two more.

Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Mu Zu laughed and said, "You little rascal, you really have a brain."

Let's not even mention that this divine weapon was obtained by me after I killed that immortal lord.

You're afraid I'll revoke your access and then tell me to find you two more divine weapons.

If I agree, then I definitely won't revoke the permissions.

"That's a good idea."

The voice of the Wood Ancestor paused for a moment in Zhu Chongjiu's mind before continuing, "At this moment, everyone in the Divine Wood Palace..."

Of course, that includes all divine weapons. Aren't they as easy to obtain as taking something out of a bag if I want them?

Do I need you to steal it for me?

"Don't even mention what the immortals have; even what you have, if I tell you to take it, would you dare to resist?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "It's over!"

They say that old people are cunning and horses are slippery.

How could my petty cleverness possibly outmaneuver this ancient monster who has lived for countless years?

After thinking for a long time, Zhu Chongjiu could only helplessly say to Mu Zu, "Senior, I led nine brothers from a remote and impoverished place to the Yuan Universe."

When I first came here, I promised them that I would make sure they ate well, drank well, lived well, and were not bullied.

Take this innate supreme treasure, the divine weapon, for example.

There are ten of us brothers, and now only I have it.

You are probably aware of our brothers' situation.

I just wanted to find them more protective gear, so that they would have a better chance of surviving in this cruel universe.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought Xiaomu here with me.

Back then, when we hid with Senior Xuanzhen in the Dead Black Sea, we were able to wait peacefully for the Void Ship to come and pick us up.

So please, senior, have mercy on me, even if not for my sake, at least for Xiao Mu's sake."

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu stopped talking and remained silent.

At this point, he could only use this last move: "Sincerity is the ultimate killing move!"

Just as Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, Mu Zu's laughter echoed in his mind again.

He added, "You little rascal, you're quite the smooth talker."

I know what you're thinking.

Don't you ever think about this? If I were really punishing you because you've ruined my world like this, then I would have appeared when you first used those sentient plants to test the divine weapon.

Why wait until now?

However, what I told you before wasn't a lie.

For anything in this world to develop sentience, it requires overcoming countless difficulties.

Just like those little ones around you.

Didn't that take tens of thousands of years to take shape?

Therefore, unless things are going well for you, don't hurt them anymore.

When Zhu Chongjiu heard Mu Zu say this, he nodded repeatedly in agreement. However, Mu Zu interrupted him and continued, "I won't give you that divine weapon either."

After I take it back and modify it a bit, I'll give it to Xiaomu to use.

As a spirit of the wood element, its attack power is comparable to others.

Having a powerful offensive weapon will be a great help to Xiaomu in future battles.

Upon hearing Mu Zu's words, Zhu Chongjiu wanted to kneel down on the spot and kowtow to him several times.

It was so touching.

Although Mu Zu's kindness is only directed towards his own little Mu.

But isn't being good to your brothers the same as being good to yourself?

Just as Zhu Chongjiu finished reciting his set of auspicious phrases and chanted them continuously for more than ten minutes, Mu Zu's voice disappeared.

Zhu Chongjiu licked his dry lips, swallowed hard, and then quickly took out a water bottle from his storage ring and gulped down the water.

Damn it, this New Year's greeting isn't so easy to explain.

After talking for only a short while, my mouth became dry and I almost choked on my own throat.

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu tested his permissions and, finding that he still had them, happily said, "I will have great fortune within the next thousand years, and wherever I go, I will have benefactors to help me."

Let me first take a look at the current situation of those immortal lords!
