The Lizard King's submission meant that the Little Mouse had officially become the absolute king of the northern region.
Fang Chen was not at all worried that the Lizard King had ulterior motives, because when the Lizard King pledged allegiance to him, he had made a blood oath. If he violated it, he would die. This kind of oath had a great binding effect on the Demonic Beast World.
In a short while, the Lizard King's clan was completely absorbed by the Little Mouse.
On the plains, the Flying Rat King, the Tiger King, and the other kings looked at Fang Chen with respect. They had expected a big battle, but they did not expect Fang Chen to settle it so easily.
After doing all this, Fang Chen looked at the Little Mouse and said, "You stay here and organize your territory. I'll go and rescue the Banxianshu."
"Boss, let me go too," the Little Mouse said hurriedly.
Fang Chen shook his head slightly. Since the Banxianshu sent out a distress signal, it meant that they were in great danger. Even if the Little Mouse led the ancient beasts over, they would not be of much help. It was better not to let him go alone.
"Even if you go, you won't be of much help. Just stay here and organize your territory," Fang Chen continued.
Seeing this, the Little Mouse did not argue anymore. He nodded and bid farewell to Fang Chen.
After bidding farewell to the Little Mouse, Fang Chen used all his strength to fly in the sky towards the Little Mouse's location.
After a few days, Fang Chen finally arrived at a mountain range that the Banxianshu had mentioned.
This place was not part of the northern region, but was close to the central region.
In front of Fang Chen was a majestic mountain range. This mountain range was called the Devil's Mountain Range.
It was said that there was a very domineering plant in the Devil's Mountain Range called the Blood-colored Devil's Vine. This plant was very powerful. Some geniuses who entered the Devil's Mountain Range all died without exception.
The Banxianshu came to the Devil's Mountain Range to look for opportunities.
The Banxianshu followed Fang Chen and often absorbed the blood of the Little Mouse. It had reached the critical point of transformation. As long as it found the right opportunity, it would have the chance to transform into a real Immortal Tree.
This was very important to the Banxianshu.
Therefore, after entering the Bloody Battle Space, the Banxianshu began to look for opportunities. Finally, one day, it found the Blood-colored Devil's Vine in the Devil's Mountain range.....
After that, the Half Immortal Tree entered the Devil Mountain Range.
But who would have thought that they would be in danger before they could find the Blood-colored Devil's Vine?
After several months of hard work, the Half Immortal Tree was still unable to escape from the dangerous situation. It felt very helpless.
Originally, according to the Banxianshu's character, it would never ask for help from Fang Chen and the Little Mouse. However, as time passed, it felt a sense of danger. Finally, it decided to inform the Little Mouse.
After Fang Chen entered the Devil's Mountain Range, he felt a different aura. He looked around and tried to find the Banxianshu.
Roar!
Suddenly, a furious roar sounded. In the next moment, a demonic beast appeared in front of Fang Chen and directly attacked Fang Chen.
"You're courting death."
Fang Chen roared. He clenched his fist and punched the demonic beast.
Puchi!
After the demonic beast was hit by Fang Chen, its huge body flew out and broke several towering trees. Finally, its body fell heavily to the ground.
Roar!
After the demonic beast fell to the ground, it let out a furious roar and wanted to attack Fang Chen.
However, Fang Chen did not give it a chance. His body flashed and the Hidden Star Sword pierced into the demonic beast's huge head.
After killing the demonic beast, Fang Chen's face was extremely solemn.
He had just entered the Devil's Mountain Range and he had already encountered a demonic beast at the Second Level of the Spiritual Vortex Realm. He did not know how powerful the demonic beasts were in the depths of the Devil's Mountain Range.
"Forget it. Let's find the Banxianshu first," Fang Chen said to himself.
Then, he carefully moved towards the depths of the Devil's Mountain Range.
After walking for about two hours, Fang Chen came to a very strange place. On this place, there were countless towering trees standing horizontally.
However, what surprised Fang Chen was that other than the towering trees, there were no weeds on the ground. There was only yellow soil.
"What's going on?"
Fang Chen was a little puzzled. In the Devil's Mountain Range, there were weeds everywhere. Other than the towering trees, there were no weeds. This made Fang Chen feel that something was wrong.
After pondering for a while, Fang Chen still entered this area.
Fang Chen went around the towering trees one after another and moved forward carefully.
However, Fang Chen did not know that behind him, the branches and leaves of some towering trees were moving closer to Fang Chen.
Fang Chen was completely unaware and continued to move forward.
When Fang Chen entered the center of this area, the branches and leaves of the towering trees suddenly stopped hiding and shot towards Fang Chen's back.
Fang Chen, who was moving forward, sensed the force behind him. With a tap of his foot, his body instantly flashed.
Puff!
Fang Chen had just dodged when branches and leaves swung towards him from afar. The force was so great that the surrounding air dissipated.
"This is …"
Seeing these towering trees waving their branches and leaves to attack him, Fang Chen was a little shocked. However, he immediately realized that these towering trees seemed to want to trap him.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Fang Chen's body flashed as he continuously brandished the Hidden Star Sword in his hand. The Flowing Water Swordsmanship, which was at the Great Completion Stage, was fully activated. Countless rays of biting cold sword-light shot out from the Hidden Star Sword.
Wherever the sword-light passed, the branches and leaves were chopped off.
Although some branches and leaves were chopped off, the towering trees in the entire area were still waving their branches and leaves. The branches and leaves that filled the sky formed a huge net in the sky. This net directly covered Fang Chen.
"I can't be entangled by these branches and leaves."
Fang Chen thought to himself. Then, with a flick of his wrist, rich spiritual energy emerged from his body. In the next moment, the Void Plundering Array was completed.
Fang Chen had already used up all the purple crystals. Now, he was using supreme-grade Spirit Stones to set up the Void Plundering Array.
Bang!
As soon as the Void Plundering Array was set up, a sky full of web-like branches bombarded the surroundings of the array formation, causing the entire array formation to shake.
However, even though the formation was shaking violently, it still managed to withstand the attack of the web-like branches.
"I can't continue like this. I have to think of a way." Fang Chen said anxiously.
He didn't know how strong the attacks of these branches were. The Void Plundering Array could withstand them, but if it couldn't, then he would be completely exposed in front of these branches.
Unless it was a last resort, he absolutely couldn't let himself be in danger.
Just as Fang Chen was thinking, the Void Plundering Array suddenly shook as if it was about to collapse.
Boom!
Then, a deafening sound was heard. Suddenly, the Void Plundering Array collapsed.
In the sky, countless branches intertwined and bombarded Fang Chen.
"Not good."
In a moment of desperation, Fang Chen unleashed the Concept of Fire. Black flames instantly spread out and enveloped his body.
Crash!
Just as the black flames wrapped around Fang Chen's body, the branches that filled the sky instantly wrapped around Fang Chen's body from all directions.
The Star Hidden Sword in Fang Chen's hand constantly slashed at the branches, but it was useless.
Fang Chen's face was solemn. Unknowingly, he had fallen into a passive state.
At this moment, the branches that wrapped around Fang Chen's body suddenly fell off. Seeing this scene, Fang Chen looked down and a smile appeared on his face.
"They are afraid of fire."
Fang Chen saw that the black flames were burning the branches that were wrapped around his body. These branches could not withstand the burning of the black flames at all, and all of them fell off.
Seeing this, Fang Chen increased his strength and urged the Essence of Fire with all his strength. The black flames spread out.
Wherever the black flames passed, the branches released by the towering trees would dodge, as if they were afraid of being burned.
They had just been in a dangerous situation, but in the blink of an eye, they were free.
"I didn't expect them to be afraid of fire."
Fang Chen's face was full of smiles. At the same time, he rejoiced. Fortunately, his flames weren't ordinary flames, but the black flames that had some of the characteristics of the Undying Flame. This was why the towering trees were afraid.
In this area, countless towering trees released branches and leaves that floated in the air. They allowed Fang Chen to move forward, but they didn't dare to stop him.
Fang Chen walked in front of a towering tree, stretched out his hand, and directly punched the trunk of the towering tree. Immediately, the black flames burned the towering tree.
The towering tree constantly shook, as if it was begging for mercy.
"Little guys, who asked you to entangle me?" Fang Chen coldly said when he saw this scene.
Of course, Fang Chen didn't have the time to use the black flames to burn these towering trees. The purpose of his trip was to rescue the Banxianshu, so he couldn't waste time here.
Using the black flames, Fang Chen easily left this strange area. When he walked out, he instantly discovered that there was a swamp outside the forest.
The air above the swamp was filled with a gray aura. The swamp was filled with an evil aura.
"Is the Banxianshu trapped in the swamp?" Fang Chen's dark eyes stared at the swamp as he thought to himself.
The Devil's Mountain Range was very strange. What he had just experienced made Fang Chen realize how terrifying the Devil's Mountain Range was.
A small area of towering trees was already so strange. What would be so strange about this swamp?
Fang Chen didn't rush to set foot on the swamp. Instead, he reached out and broke off a branch from a towering tree and threw it into the swamp.
When the branch came into contact with the swamp, it was instantly swallowed by the swamp.
"There's something strange about this swamp," Fang Chen whispered.
Although he wanted to see the Banxianshu as soon as possible, Fang Chen still wouldn't let his guard down.
He had to ensure that there was no danger before he set foot on the swamp.
At this time, in the depths of the Devil's Mountain Range, the Banxianshu that was in danger suddenly felt a familiar aura. Then, it became very excited.
