Chapter 1177: Chapters 1126–1127 A Sensation, Bloody Trial Chapter 1177: Chapters 1126–1127 A Sensation, Bloody Trial “What we need to do isn't just to seize this fruit, but also to uproot this Divine Tree entirely,” Pang Hong said to the others.
Just as they made the decision to act, Pang Hong addressed the group again.
A Divine Tree capable of helping Supreme Strong cultivators break through the Immortal Path Realm is a rarity unheard of and unseen in this world.
If they hadn't known about it before, it would be one thing, but since they were here now and had seen the Divine Tree, they naturally couldn't miss this chance.
If it were before, these people might just have taken the ripe fruits and left without desiring the Divine Tree itself.
But now, with such a Divine Tree before him, Pang Hong absolutely couldn't let this opportunity slip by. As the Wielder of an immortal sect, he understood what owning such a tree would mean for the entire Shenxiao Sect.
If they could transplant this Divine Tree back, the future Shenxiao Sect would have a continuous emergence of Immortal Path Strong, and even if the process was slow, the sect could totally accept this scenario–it was completely worth the wait.
Thus, the ensuing great battle was only logical. Given that the Divine Tree represented a chance at Becoming Immortal, the strong ones of the Golden Bimong Tribe, facing invaders, advanced bravely into battle. The two sides fought fiercely.
From what was initially a plan to sneak in and steal, because they were discovered, it completely turned into a forceful snatch.
However, the value of this Divine Tree was so great it was entirely worth such a price.
Of course, their information had some flaws: the Supreme Strong Monster Gods of the Golden Bimong Tribe were not three, but four.
Four Supreme Strong Monster Gods, eleven Monster Gods of the Spirit Realm Eighth Layer–this was the current peak combat prowess of the entire Golden Bimong Tribe.
With twelve of them against such forces, Pang Hong and his group were utterly outnumbered, and the rest of the Golden Bimong tribe, although not able to engage in top-tier combat, still activated arrays to hinder Pang Hong and his comrades from escaping.
Originally, according to their estimation, although Pang Hong said he could handle two Supreme Strong Monster Gods, that was the worst-case scenario; he hadn't expected to face such a situation.
Because, according to intelligence, the Golden Bimong Tribe had three Supreme Strong entities. He would deal with one, and the rest would easily handle the other two.
But the situation now was extremely urgent, and unless they retreated and gave up on the Divine Tree, they had to fight desperately.
No one wanted to give up on the Divine Tree, so they could only fight with all their might.
Pang Hong alone grappled with two Supreme Strong Monster Gods from the Golden Bimong Tribe, while Heavenly King Li held off one alone, and Venerable Withered Wood and Pestilence Venerable teamed up to hold off another.
The Mo Family Four Brothers could also have balanced a Supreme Strong Monster God; if they had taken on one of them, Pang Hong would not have to fight so desperately.
But given the circumstances, their current goal was to seize the Divine Tree and flee, not to engage in a real fight, especially since they were in the heart of the Demon Race's territory, where delays would only bring more Monster Gods.
While the Mo Family Four Brothers excelled in group attacks, rather than having them hold off a single Supreme Strong Monster God, it was better for Pang Hong to hold on for a while and let the four handle more of the Spirit Realm Eighth Layer Supreme Strong Monster Gods, even attempting to slay other Monster Gods.
This battle, as a result, saw them, a group of twelve, confront the Golden Bimong Tribe to seize the Divine Tree and flee, and they managed to slay a Supreme Strong Monster God, wound another, and kill three Monster Gods of the Spirit Realm Eighth Layer.
To the Golden Bimong Tribe, it was an immense disgrace, as they'd never suffered such a loss in their history, even in their ancient wars with the Ancient Human Race.
And what made it all the more galling was that this blow wasn't dealt by Supreme Strong of the human race but by a group of Spirit Realm Eighth Layer human cultivators, stirring rage within them.
Anger is one thing, but it solved nothing, especially since the situation they faced wasn't just about loss of strength, but the loss of their millennially inherited Holy Tree–the tree that was beginning to transform.
That concerned the future of the Golden Bimong Tribe and whether they could use this opportunity to nurture their own True Immortal Monster God.
They had to reclaim the Holy Tree, outstripping other tribes, to take back that transforming Holy Tree–it was the unanimous thought among all the strong ones of the Golden Bimong Tribe.
They knew that once the news leaked out, other tribes, no matter what, would interfere first, attempting to capture the Holy Tree.
These were the thoughts of the Golden Bimong Tribe who lost the Holy Tree, but for Pang Hong and those now in possession of the Divine Tree, there was excitement but also apprehension.
With the Divine Tree in hand, if they could secure it successfully, it meant their chances of ascending the Immortal Path in the future were greatly improved–how could they not be thrilled?
But what also worried them was their location within the territory of the Demon Race, and as news continued to spread, they would inevitably face pursuit by many strong foes; the path before them was fraught with near-certain death.
Despite their formidable strengths, the adversaries they would face next on their journey were all formidable.
The Divine Object linked to the Immortal Path was coveted by all strong beings who would do everything in their power to seize it, sparing no cost.
