Chapter 311 For the Tribe (12)
The cheerful atmosphere vanished instantly. Some of the orcs instinctively covered their heads and sought cover. The hunting party of orcs quickly formed a line, with Zhi and the newly transformed Yuan guarding the middle.
Jingli looked serious.
The fireball was aimed at the Tree of Life, but it changed direction and crashed into a nearby mound of earth, creating a huge crater, probably because the Tree of Life possessed powerful natural forces for self-preservation.
But this is not the end.
More attacks rained down: lightning, ice, fire, and even a barrage of bullets.
Jingli quickly threw out an area-of-effect defensive talisman.
This talisman's power is not much different from the low-level defense cards produced by the system. Item cards are consumables, so use talismans first if you can.
The talisman withstood the bullets, but it couldn't defend against the attacks of natural forces.
Jingli jumped up, but did not escape the hunting team's sight.
He needed to both find the invaders and ensure that he remained within the territory of the Cangbei tribe.
This is a crisis, but also an opportunity to strengthen trust.
He would not give the orcs any reason to doubt.
With the release of energy, Jingli began to explore with the Tree of Life as the center.
There are 7 people within range, 2 of whom use firearms and 5 of whom use natural abilities.
Of the five people, three have abilities similar to those in the cultivation world, while the abilities of the remaining two are not yet clear.
The firearms can be defended against with talismans; take out the remaining 5 first.
There were quite a few people, so the scenery wasn't very impressive.
He explained the invaders' information and hiding place to the orcs who were on standby, and asked, "Besides the two with weapons, how many of these five can you take down?"
Meng said, "Three."
They rely on physical strength and teamwork. Some people need to stay here to protect the orcs who are not capable of fighting. Three is their limit.
"it is good."
After Jingli finished speaking, she wanted to try to handle the remaining two by herself, but Zhi stopped her.
“You stay here.” He said solemnly, turning to Meng and the orcs of the hunting party, “Their goal has always been the Tree of Life. Among us, only Jingli can use the power of nature, so he will stay here.”
Meng wasn't a particularly intelligent player, but he was very obedient. He quickly selected a few people, divided them into two groups, and rushed off in the direction Jingli had just reported.
The invaders were few in number but well-equipped with weapons. Their small size made them easy to hide in the jungle terrain.
They hadn't expected the orcs to find them so quickly.
The hunting party first dealt with the two armed men, then split up to find the remaining five formidable opponents.
Although they are separated, they are still in groups of at least three.
As expected, less than ten seconds after the hunting team left, someone flew over.
Zhi, along with Jingli and Yuan, first hid behind a cover.
"Don't expose ourselves yet, otherwise, if even one of them escapes, we're finished."
In other words, if these invaders fail in their first attack, they will adjust their plans and try again.
Judging from their tense state, the people who came must not be the same group.
In less than two minutes, Jingli had already determined that the intruders' cooperation was not that good.
At least this wave is.
If it were always them, with the wisdom of knowledge, they would surely be able to come up with a way to subdue the other party.
However, this is not the case.
Jingli's heart sank even further.
He didn't just sit and wait to die. He took out the talismans he had prepared beforehand, quickly calculated the directions, and sent the talismans over.
He then released energy to resonate with this rich vitality, further amplifying the natural power stored within the talisman.
He has limited power to mobilize, but with the blessing of the Tree of Life, the outcome is different.
The unknown expert who was fighting the hunting party suddenly tried to escape, but in the blink of an eye, his feet were bound by vines that rose from the ground.
Before he could react, the power within the talisman converged on him, instantly blasting him into pieces.
Jingli was certain that he couldn't possibly have had time to send a message.
Whether they are from their own team or from somewhere else.
He took a deep breath, took the opportunity to adjust himself slightly, and released his spiritual power again to check on the others.
Two people were entangled with the hunting party, one was being chased by the hunting party, and another was heading towards the Tree of Life.
The hunting party here has an injured orc, and the fairy butterfly is helping to heal him, but that person is extremely fast, and even Jingli's spiritual perception cannot detect his path.
It seems to have a kind of teleportation ability.
He swallowed nervously, and felt a sense of despair when he saw the person appear.
This person clearly came from the world of cultivation. His gender was no longer discernible, and he was covered in black energy, indicating that he was a demonic cultivator.
Jingli has never seen a fully-fledged demon cultivator, not even Chunqi, who is said to have fallen into demonhood, but he is still in fragmented form.
Meng Li had told him before that the powerful physical skills of demonic cultivators were more troublesome than those unexpected demonic energy attacks, because their attacks were always suicidal. They were not afraid of death, because the pain they suffered could become nourishment for their abilities.
In other words, the orcs' prized physical attributes lost their advantage against the demonic cultivators, and they also needed to be wary of the demons' attacks that could knock them unconscious.
Faced with the unknown, Jingli was quite flustered.
Given the unique nature of demonic energy, he abandoned using spells and ordinary talismans to attack. Instead, he directly channeled the energy, flashed out, and launched an attack directly against the demonic cultivator.
Jingli finally saw the other person's appearance clearly. He had only one mouth on his face, and his skin secreted mucus. He really looked like a demon that had crawled out of somewhere.
Jingli felt a chill run down his spine, while the other person grinned at him.
He disappeared.
Jingli's hair stood on end, and without thinking, she dodged.
The demonic cultivator instantly appeared where he had just been standing, his hand transforming into sharp spikes. If Jing Li hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been pierced through.
However, the opponent did not achieve a complete victory either.
Jingli's energy was indeed effective against demonic cultivators. The energy transformed into a long ribbon that enveloped the demonic cultivators. As soon as it touched a demonic cultivator, his tacit understanding would be somewhat diminished.
The demonic cultivator stopped laughing, confronted Jingli briefly, and then disappeared again.
Zhi roared, "He wants to destroy the Tree of Life!"
Jingli instantly unleashed energy, using an energy shield to protect the Tree of Life.
However, the Tree of Life was simply too large. He had to release a large amount of energy to protect it from external invasion by demonic cultivators, and he also had to be wary of where the demonic cultivators would teleport to. For the first time, Jingli felt overwhelmed.
Just then, Yuan, who was beside Zhi, shot towards a corner of the Tree of Life like a bullet, so fast that no one could react.
Including the demonic cultivators who just teleported out.
Jingli tightly bound the Tree of Life with extremely pure and condensed energy, while the evil cultivator originally intended to break through from behind.
The energy restrained him, but that didn't mean he was helpless. He could resist the erosion and use of demonic energy to corrupt the roots of the Tree of Life, as long as the Tree of Life was corrupted...
A beastly roar interrupted his thoughts.
He couldn't think about it anymore.
The sharp fangs pierced his body, which was enveloped in demonic energy, and even the demonic energy within him was rapidly absorbed.
In just three seconds, the demonic cultivator was reduced to a shriveled mass of black flesh.
The white behemoth spat out the thing, slowly returning to the size of a kitten, frowning and pawing at its mouth with its paws.
