Four Peacocks were all displaying their full speed, and their speed was not inferior to Lin Yi’s; they quickly caught up with him.
One of the Old Venerables glanced back at the relentlessly pursuing Holy Demon Ancient Tree, his expression unpleasant as he said, "As far as I know, the Holy Demon Ancient Tree has a mild nature and does not attack others actively."
"What exactly did you take from it, for this tree to go berserk?"
What exactly had Lin Yi done to this generally mild ancient tree to drive it completely into a frenzy?
"I really didn’t do anything!"
Lin Yi spread his hands, "It wasn’t me, it was you who plucked too many treasure medicines from this place, that enraged it!"
Was that really the case?
The Old Venerable of the Peacock Clan expressed his doubt; was simply plucking some treasure medicines enough to infuriate a gentle being to this extent?
But now was clearly not the time to get to the bottom of it; the urgent matter was to escape from the Holy Demon Ancient Tree. Although the tree wasn’t fast, being chased relentlessly was not a solution.
Just then, several figures suddenly appeared ahead; Lin Yi focused his eyes and saw that it was those from the Demon Elephant Clan, led by Xiang Zhenxu himself!
"It’s the Peacock Clan!"
Upon seeing Lin Yi and his group fleeing, Xiang Zhenxu’s face immediately revealed a mocking expression, "The Peacock Clan is rumored to be fierce, but why do they look like stray dogs?"
"It seems the rumors aren’t true!"
Other Venerables from the Demon Elephant Clan also laughed and shook their heads.
"Kong Linyun, brother, who is chasing you?"
Xiang Zhenxu wore a look of enjoying the spectacle, his expression mixed with mockery.
Lin Yi saw this and scoffed, "A tree!"
Xiang Zhenxu was stunned, then burst into laughter, "The mighty Peacock Clan being chased by a tree..."
However, in the next moment, Xiang Zhenxu couldn’t laugh anymore, because the entity chasing Lin Yi wasn’t just any ordinary tree, but the Holy Demon Ancient Tree!
How had this guy provoked such a terrifying entity?
While Xiang Zhenxu was still in shock, Lin Yi suddenly exclaimed, "What? Brother Xiang, you said you are confident in suppressing this Holy Demon Ancient Tree, and want to chop its trunk for equipment?"
"Though it’s quite embarrassing, since you are so confident, then I’ll leave this tree to you!"
Lin Yi’s words bewildered Xiang Zhenxu; before he could object, he was scolded by the Venerables of the Demon Elephant Clan from behind, "Foolish!"
"Young Master, how could you agree to such a thing? The Holy Demon Ancient Tree is not something we can handle!"
"You all listen to this kid’s nonsense!"
Xiang Zhenxu’s face suddenly turned grim, "I never said such a thing!"
The Holy Demon Ancient Tree possesses the combat power of a Saint level; how is confronting it head-on any different from suicide?
But the Holy Demon Ancient Tree cared little for these things, seeing Xiang Zhenxu and the Venerables of the Demon Elephant Clan standing ahead without moving, it truly believed these beings intended to block it; it became enraged and unleashed branches filled with dense thunder, sweeping across the sky and pressing down on the people of the Demon Elephant Clan!
Instantly, two Venerables from the Elephant Clan, unable to dodge in time, were enveloped by the Holy Demon Ancient Tree’s offensive, and directly cleaved, their bodies turning into charred meat.
Xiang Zhenxu’s eyes nearly popped out in rage; two Venerables from his clan were just cleaved to death by the Holy Demon Ancient Tree, this deep grudge must be counted on Lin Yi’s head!
But the attacks of the Holy Demon Ancient Tree became increasingly fierce, overwhelming Xiang Zhenxu completely, forcing him to activate a mark left in his body by the Clan Leader of the Demon Elephant Clan!
In the next moment, a huge elephant phantom suddenly emerged above Xiang Zhenxu’s head; it was the Titan Giant Elephant from the Ancient Times, resembling a giant mountain. Its appearance finally stabilized the formation of the Demon Elephant Clan temporarily, preventing further slaughtering by the Holy Demon Ancient Tree.
Hearing the screams from behind, several Saints of the Peacock Clan couldn’t help but warily glance at Lin Yi; this kid was really too cunning, with just a few words, he directed trouble eastward, plunging the Demon Elephant Clan into dire straits and nearly wiping them out!
It seems that in the future, one must never offend this kid, or one might not even know how one dies!
However, Lin Yi, the instigator, appeared completely calm, as if only a trivial matter had occurred.
The Holy Demon Ancient Tree was entangled by the people of the Demon Elephant Clan and did not continue the chase; Lin Yi and the four Venerables of the Peacock Clan also landed in a valley.
"Let’s rest here for a bit."
Lin Yi surveyed the valley and then nodded in satisfaction, choosing this spot to settle down; he had just obtained two pots of Holy-grade Spirit Spring and was planning to find a place to refine them.
This Holy-grade Spirit Spring contained very pure energy, especially beneficial for those in the Venerable Realm, capable of sanctifying the inner meridians, bringing them closer to the Saint Realm!
