Inathal knew the effects of the poisonous tree's root, which is why the Inathal leader said those words.

Because this poisonous tree is their sacred tree in Natal.

"Roar..." The gray lion roared, as if something was churning in its throat. The next moment, a thick mass spewed out of the gray lion's mouth, its target being the leader of Inathal in front of it.

When Chief Natal used that true qi technique, the only drawback was that he had to be completely focused, which slowed down his reaction speed, and he was no longer able to dodge!

Meanwhile, the gray lion was able to absorb the yellow true energy of the Natal race, and its strength began to surge again!

The aura of the gray lion gradually intensified.

When the leader of Inathal was hit by that phlegm, he instantly lost the ability to move. The phlegm was extremely sticky, and no matter how hard Inathal tried, it would be deflected when it landed on him.

With the leader of Natal under control, the yellow aura began to dissipate instantly. Without the yellow aura, the gray lion's aura decreased again, eventually returning to normal.

It was almost interrupted again, twice now. The gray lion looked displeased and walked step by step toward the leader of Inathal.

The leader of the Inathal tribe felt death approaching him step by step. If he died here, the roots of the poisonous tree would once again be seized by the gray lions, which would undoubtedly be the worst news for the Inathal tribe.

The Natal tribe and the lion known as the "Hunter" have a long-standing feud and frequent conflicts, so if the balance of power between the two sides were to shift, either side could be destroyed.

Chen Zhou hid behind a tree, quietly watching the ever-changing battle situation before him, and also learned a lot.

Natal wanted to protect the roots of the poisonous tree and prevent the gray lion from taking them back.

The root of that poisonous tree seems to appear only once a year, and the last time it appeared, it was taken by the gray lion.

Since the root of the poisonous tree had already been taken by the gray lion once, the gray lion's strength had increased dramatically. Even in a head-on confrontation, the leader of Natal would not be a match for the gray lion.

Moreover, the Grey Lion can also absorb the yellow aura released by Inathal.

This yellow aura seemed to be something the Grey Lion desperately needed. Every time the Natal people released yellow aura, the Grey Lion's strength would increase, and its aura would also rise.

This directly resulted in the fact that Natal's leader was no match for the Grey Lions no matter what.

However, Natal's leader never intended to fight the Grey Lions in the first place; he kept stalling for time.

It's been delayed long enough.

Because the leader of Natal heard a series of hurried footsteps approaching.

And from afar, the Natal chieftain saw his people surrounding a single person.

This person looked younger than the leader of the Natal and was a woman, completely covered in clothing woven from vines and leaves, holding a spear.

This spear is extremely special; it is crystal clear all over, and there is a spiritual aura flowing on it.

It's a Horcrux!

This was the first time Chen Zhou had seen a soul weapon since leaving the Sword Cloud Sect, apart from his own Heavy Edge Sword.

I never expected that this small tribe would have a Horcrux!

Chen Zhou was extremely shocked. How could such a rare item as a Soul Weapon appear in a small tribe?

Before Chen Zhou could continue thinking, he could just see clearly that the Natal woman from the foreign trade department had thrown the Soul Weapon Spear in her hand far away towards the Grey Lion!

This Natal woman has several green stripes painted on her face, and a green pendant hangs from one of her ears.

Chen Zhou watched as the spear approached the gray lion and pierced it instantly!

"Sizzle..."

The spear pierced through the grey lion and finally landed in front of the leader of the Natal. The grey lion, which was pierced by the Horcrux spear, did not lose its ability to move. Instead, its aura was high!

Dark green venom quickly oozed from the penetrating wound, visibly sealing it and continuing to seep out.

This is precisely the wonder of the root of that poisonous tree.

It has an amazing ability to heal itself.

So much so that the Grey Lion could survive such a fatal wound, and even had a surge of energy. With the Grey Lion's rage, it turned and charged at the approaching Inathal women.

From afar, Chen Zhou saw the gray lion unleash its true energy for the first time!

The layers of pitch-black true energy surrounded the gray lion. Before the gray lion could get close to the Inathal woman, the pitch-black true energy had already made contact with her.

Fortunately, the Natal woman reacted quickly. The moment she came into contact with the dark energy, she swiftly pulled back, preventing the black energy from succeeding.

"Yu Junya! Run! Get the old clan chief out! You are no match for this beast!" Chief Natal shouted, straining his neck to stick his head out of the thick phlegm.

He never expected that the tribe would send Yu Junya out. She was the hope of the tribe's younger generation. How could they send her out in such a dangerous situation?

If anything were to happen to her during this battle, no one could bear the responsibility.

To everyone's horror, Yu Junya's hands had turned pitch black after she touched the gray lion's black true energy!

The gray lion's black aura was highly poisonous, and everyone underestimated it.

It's become one with the roots of the poisonous tree!

Her hands were black, proving that the poison had penetrated deep into her body. Yu Junya had already lost the ability to move. The poison was spreading extremely quickly, and in no time, she had lost all feeling in her lower limbs. When she lifted her vine-covered clothes, she saw that her calves had also turned black.

And the darkness was rushing toward his feet at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just when Chen Zhou thought Yu Junya was about to be slapped to death by the gray lion, the soul weapon spear suddenly charged towards the gray lion in the opposite direction.

Another piercing blow left the gray lion with another wound, which quickly became like the previous one, oozing venom.

Therefore, the gray lion's mobility is almost unrestricted.

The Soul Weapon Spear returned, and Yu Junya caught it with one hand. Just then, something else happened that opened Chen Zhou's eyes.

The blackness on Yu Junya's body was quickly absorbed by the soul weapon spear in her hand, and her skin color returned to normal.

The soul weapon spear in Yu Junya's hand actually has the effect of detoxification!

"You beast! Stop!"

Just then, an old figure rushed out from the distant sky, his feet planted on a long sword.

It's flying on a sword!

"The old patriarch... has finally arrived..."
