"Me? I don't produce water, I'm just a water transporter, cough cough cough... Actually, it's because I'm a sorceress skilled in water magic."
As soon as Su Yuan finished speaking, Ye Tong immediately refuted him, frowning as she said, "Impossible! The underground environment simply cannot condense water. We can only find a few water sources in the corpses of those cursed beasts."
"......"
Su Yuan sighed. He now knew almost everything. The other party didn't have any grand schemes or plans; they were just willing to give their lives for a tree.
There was no need to hide it from the other party anymore. He walked to the tree, placed his palm on the trunk, and thought, "This tree... I actually really want to move it too."
Although the problem of drying out has been temporarily solved, the creatures remain withered from years of lack of sunlight, and are also weakened and corroded by the dense dark elements.
It will wither and die here sooner or later.
However, if he took it with him, the little elves would leave with him, and the Akashi beast tide underground would erupt. He was reluctant to give up his assets in Star Rift Canyon.
Black Sheep has almost finished setting up a new camp in the Crystal Cluster area for the development of the Ming Stone mine, and she also has plans to build a similar camp in the Fungus Forest area, so that it will be convenient for Moon Pivot City to harvest mushrooms and fungi.
The mushroom forest area is a place where mushrooms and fungi are produced in abundance. Mushrooms and fungi that can only be found in some corners of the snow forest in the snowfield, as well as all kinds of novel vegetables, can be picked here, and they are everywhere.
Now we face two choices: either give up the Dream Source Ancient Tree or give up Star Rift Canyon.
Another way is to completely eliminate the Akashi Beasts underground, but based on what we've seen along the way, it's impossible for Black Sheep and his men to clear them out in a short time.
"Then, should we seal off the path leading up there? Or, could Mu Mianling leave the vicinity of the Dream Source Ancient Tree...?"
Su Yuan had thought of these questions and was about to ask An Lian and the others when suddenly, the branches and leaves above the Dream Source Ancient Tree began to wrap together.
The leaves that had fallen due to drying out grew back, and then the leaf clusters wrapped in leaves emitted a bright green light.
"This is... the aura of Lady Wood Spirit! This is bad! Quick, protect the Mother of the Dark Abyss!"
Before the joy on her face had subsided, the sudden light made Ye Tong's expression turn extremely ugly, filled with fear and despair, but she quickly regained her resolve.
Su Yuan was also startled by the sudden burst of light. The bright green light made it possible to see the surrounding scenery clearly without needing night vision goggles, so he immediately took them off.
“The dark elements nearby have faded considerably!” Black Sheep also dispelled his dark magic, staring uneasily ahead.
"What exactly is going on?"
He grabbed Night's Eye. The beast girls here were mostly blind, and if they were attacked by those stone beasts, they would only die.
"This is the first Wood Spirit born by the Mother of the Dark Abyss. In short, it chose to return because the Mother of the Dark Abyss was weakened. I never expected that its appearance would be so dazzling."
It seemed that Ye Tong was also unaware of this matter. Su Yuan tried to calm down and then asked, "Is it possible to block the light emitted so that they won't be disturbed?"
"No, none of us have anything that can completely block out the light! Even a sliver of light will disturb those cursed beasts."
"And...they've already arrived."
Ye Tong stared into the distance with utter terror in his eyes. At that moment, the ground began to tremble slightly, and even Su Yuan felt a sense of unease, even more unsettling than the fire he had lit earlier.
“Who said there isn’t? Black Sheep, take the others and leave here first. Return to Moon Pivot City. I’ll leave the matter of settling them in to you. Lion, cover the tree with this black cloth.”
"Xin Ke, Shou Yan, you two are responsible for dealing with the Akashi Beasts that have charged in."
