Cui Xiabing was sensing the environment of the entire valley with a serious face. She transformed more than 30 trees that were over a thousand years old into war treemen.

These ancient tree war treemen are very powerful. In addition to being able to control a large number of vines and roots, their special properties also give rise to different innate abilities.

For example, the thousand-year-old silver needle tree can shoot out silver needles like arrows.

The poisonous leaf tree can emit a highly toxic substance, which makes the gnolls afraid to approach.

The ironbark tree was as hard as steel. The whole tree was like a war puppet made of steel, suppressing hundreds of lizardmen and gnolls.

"Cui Xiabing, they attacked with fire."

A figure rushed in from outside the valley and spoke quickly.

"What? Fire attack! Did these lizardmen remember it?"

"What should I do? Fire inherently restrains trees..."

"Why don't we split up and flee? The valley is so big, they can't possibly surround the entire valley!"

There were four or five other students around Cui Xiabing, all of whom were accidentally teleported to this area.

They were originally hunted by Lizardmen and Jackals. Some were killed and some escaped.

And they gathered here under the influence of Cui Xiabing, the tree herder, and with the guidance and protection of the trees.

Cui Xiabing stopped the panicking people and said, "Don't worry, my tree people are ancient war trees with their own wisdom. They are not those immobile trees. They are not afraid of ordinary flames at all."

"Stand guard at the entrance of the valley and report any accidents at any time."

Someone raised a question: "Cui Xiabing, why do we have to stay in this valley?"

"Yes, we could have rushed out long before the cave orcs formed a circle, so why should we retreat?"

"And Zhang Xiaojing and the others were arrested. I don't know how they are doing now."

After hearing what several people said, Cui Xiabing's eyes dimmed.

She had originally gathered seven people, hoping to rely on everyone's strength to return to the human camp together.

Unfortunately, he was hunted down by the Lizardmen!

Especially those Fallen Ones, who kept launching sneak attacks and were very powerful. The original team of seven people now has only five people left.

Zhang Xiaojing, who came with her, and another student named Wang Dong were both arrested.

Now I don’t know whether he is dead or alive.

And now...

Looking at the panicked people, Cui Xiabing could only grit his teeth and comfort them: "Don't worry, since I can stay here, I can definitely take you out!"

"Deep in this valley, there is a willow tree that is ten thousand years old! It has developed self-awareness and even awakened a trace of extraordinary power."

"I want to transform it into a tree man. As long as it succeeds, we will have a companion whose strength is comparable to that of an epic warrior!"

“When the time comes, let alone the lizardmen and gnolls outside, I won’t be afraid even of the cave orcs in the entire wilderness!”

"real?!"

Hearing Cui Xiabing say this, everyone around was shocked.

Ancient trees that are more than a thousand years old are extremely rare, especially some extraordinary species that possess extraordinary powers, which are even rarer in number.

Most of them were transformed into demons, spirits, or other races.

The thousand-year-old trees that Cui Xiabing had enlightened in the past few days were all ordinary trees, but even so, they could withstand hundreds of lizardmen, jackals, and a large number of professionals from the outside world.

It is conceivable how terrifying the power of the war tree man is.

And now, Cui Xiabing actually said that she had discovered a supernatural tree that was 10,000 years old. This chance was even better than winning the lottery! Once it was successfully transformed into a tree man, its strength would be unfathomable.

Epic level? Legendary level? Thinking of this, everyone present became excited.

"How is it possible for an extraordinary tree to be ten thousand years old?"

"I know that there are several tree monsters in the monster tribe whose age is over ten thousand years, but I didn't expect there is one here!"

"I don't know what kind of extraordinary tree this is. Why hasn't it awakened its own wisdom yet?"

"How about we go check it out?"

Seeing everyone's enthusiastic discussion, Cui Xiabing couldn't refuse and could only say: "Come with me, I also received guidance from the unknown to find it..."

Several people walked along the valley into the interior, and the scene before them quickly expanded.

What appeared before their eyes was actually a wide canyon, surrounded by a lot of fog.

A giant ancient tree with twisted branches took root in the mountain wall on the side of the canyon, and the layers of roots even overturned the mountain wall.

The trunks of the trees slant upward toward the sky, transforming into a dense canopy that covers the entire valley.

From a distance, it looks like a large mountain forest.

No one could have imagined that the forest covering the valley was actually the trunk of an ancient tree!

“A miracle! This is a miracle! It actually planted its roots on the side of the canyon, making its crown parallel to the canyon. No wonder it was not discovered by the cave orcs.”

"Every newly-born alien battlefield will have a lot of natural treasures. This ancient tree can be considered one of them!"

"Of course! If we transport it back to our Blue Planet..."

As several people were talking excitedly, a large number of vines suddenly spread out around them, like giant pythons, surrounding everyone in the center.

The faces of several people changed drastically, and they quickly leaned together. Cui Xiabing also hurriedly said: "Senior Gu Shu, they are my companions, please don't hurt them."

"What is a companion?"

A hoarse and deep voice came from the depths of the thick fog, forming ripples in the air.

Cui Xiabing said quickly: "Companions are friends and tribesmen, just like the ancient trees around you."

"My tribe... so that's how it is..." The deep voice came again: "I can't sense the breath of tree spirits from them."

"Forget it. I am suppressed by the rules of this world and cannot transform into a real tree spirit. If you can help me, I will serve you for a hundred years... I agree to this deal."

Cui Xiabing's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really, Senior Gu Shu?"

"Yes." The deep voice continued, "But my body and vitality are too huge. Even with your help, it will take a long time to transform into a real tree spirit..."

Cui Xiabing said: "Senior Ancient Tree, please rest assured. My ability is to transform trees into tree people. With my help, the time it takes for you to transform into a tree spirit will be greatly reduced."

"Please rest assured!"

After leading a few people out of the canyon, Cui Xiabing said: "You have heard it too. Now is our most critical moment. We must not leave here and give up halfway."

"Otherwise, this ancient tree might be snatched away by the cave orcs!"

"So we must stay here and wait for the ancient tree to be successfully enlightened!"

Someone asked, "How long do we have to hold out?"

Cui Xiabing thought for a moment and said, "About... three days!"

"Three days..."

Several people's faces changed drastically. They couldn't even hold out for a day.

Cui Xiabing gritted his teeth and said, "This ancient tree is not only our hope for survival, but also the greatest guarantee for us humans on Blue Star to occupy the wilderness."

"I will activate my tree shepherd talent and herd this forest for a short period of time. All the trees will gain a short life and help me keep out the cave orcs from outside."

"At the same time, we will also scout all humans in this forest and have them assist us as quickly as possible."

Cui Xiabing said: "Everyone, for the sake of our human race, please help me!"
