Chapter 16: The Deadwood Warriors

Under the Elven Elder's explanation, Yang Ling probably understood what was going on.

It turns out that legend has it that in ancient times there was a mysterious and powerful tree herdsman who could summon deadwood warriors from ancient trees. For them, the forests of ancient trees are their territory and the source of their strength, ready to summon countless deadwood warriors to fight.

Ancient summoner, tree shepherd

Looking at the deadwood warriors who were crawling on the ground, and then at Yang Ling, who was hidden deeply, the elven elven elder's heart was shocked.

The Ancient Summoner can summon hordes of monsters to fight and form terrifying armies of monsters, while the Shepherds are no less impressive, summoning countless deadwood warriors from ancient trees. The elven elder didn't dare to imagine how terrifying Yang Ling's combat power would be after having this dual ability.

The Truss Forest stretches for thousands of miles, facing the sea to the south, the vast Bantu Empire and the thriving Livenza Principality to the west, and the mighty Rus' Empire to the north, thousands of kilometers of swamps. As for the east, which stretches for thousands of miles, no one knows how big the Truss Forest really is.

In this vast forest sea, there are towering ancient trees everywhere, which means that Yang Ling can summon thousands of deadwood warriors like Lablock. Coupled with the large number of demonic beasts, the elven elder understood that the largest primeval forest on this continent was simply Yang Ling's blessed land. As long as he helps, it will not be a problem for a hundred Ymians to come back and take revenge.

"The vast forest sea is the habitat of our forest spirits, and it is also the home and source of strength for the shepherds. Legend has it that in ancient times, each shepherd owned a territory that stretched for thousands of miles, and shared weal and woe with the forest elves. The elves are responsible for nurturing and caring for the ancient trees, while the tree herders are responsible for summoning the deadwood warriors and providing protection to us elves. ”

After the shock, the elven elder slowly spoke of the ancient legend. The elves have lived on this continent for thousands of years, and in the thick genealogy, there are many stories of the shepherds.

"That's right, cooperation is mutually beneficial!" Seeing that the elder emphasized the legend of the forest elves and the shepherds sharing weal and woe, Yang Ling didn't need to think much to understand what he meant. However, I am not familiar with my own life, and it is obviously a good idea to cooperate with the other party.

In this continent where the jungle eats the strong, only strong strength is king. Otherwise, let alone enjoying life, I am afraid that even if you want to be a beggar with peace of mind, it will be a problem.

Although the forest elves are unrivaled in archery, their melee combat abilities are really not complimentary, which is evident from the fact that they were killed by the griffon warriors of Imia in the first place. At this time, the powerful Deadwood Guardian is their killer weapon. If there is a large group of deadwood guards, it is estimated that Imia will not dare to step into the Truss Forest if he is given ten tiger guts, let alone revenge.

Under the agreement, the two sides hit it off.

After successfully winning over Yang Ling, I saw that he paid attention to Sophia beside him from time to time, and then looked at Sophia's flushed pretty face, recalling that the two of them sneaked together in the middle of the night, and the old and sophisticated elf elder looked happy. If the two of them can get married, it will definitely be a great thing for the tribe, and with a shepherd in charge, the safety of the tribe will be guaranteed.

After a moment of silence, the elven elder who had become an old man led the clansmen to leave, leaving Yang Ling and Sophia alone.

"Sofia"

"Hmm"

"The weather seems to be getting cooler!"

"Hmm"

Looking at the elven elder who had left meaningfully, Yang Ling and Sophia both understood what he meant. For a moment, Yang Ling didn't know what to say, and Sophia was so ashamed that she didn't dare to raise her head.

"Rabulk, get up!"

After ordering the deadwood warrior Lablock, who was crawling in front of him, to stand up, and to look at the giant mace as thick as a beam in his hand, and then at his basalt-like high bulging pectoral muscles, Yang Ling thought about it. The unconscious Deadwood Guards were already more powerful than the Kehraf Chariot, and I couldn't imagine how terrifyingly destructive they would be when they possessed intelligence.

Looking at Lablock, who was full of spirit surnames, Sophia said enviously: "Yang Ling, Lablock is a deadwood warrior with a spirit surname, as long as he absorbs enough heaven and earth magic power, he can quickly advance, much stronger than the deadwood guards carefully cultivated by our tribe. ”

Absorb enough heaven and earth magic power to quickly advance?

After coming into contact with the mysterious witchcraft, Yang Ling understood that as his magic power improved, the domesticated evil eye and horned bee beasts and other magical beasts would also advance, and their strength would become stronger and stronger. If, as Sophia said, domesticated dryads could also be advanced, it would be wonderful.

Seeing that Yang Ling was a little suspicious, Sophia explained in detail. It turns out that forest spirits have lived in the forest for generations, are proficient in natural spells, and can artificially promote the growth of trees. With perseverance, when the time comes, you can summon the Deadwood Guardian from the trees.

However, unlike Lablock, who is full of spirit surnames, the Deadwood Guardians forcibly cultivated by the elves have no intelligence, and their movements are slow, and it is even more difficult to advance. And due to the long cultivation time, the average elven tribe only has a few deadwood guards.

"Oh, what's the matter with the green shoots on Rabullock?"

"Yang Ling, the green shoots on Lablock's body represent that his ability is endless, even if he is seriously injured, as long as he still has a breath, he can slowly heal automatically!"

Under Sophia's explanation, Yang Ling understood that the deadwood warriors summoned by the shepherds were born with different abilities. For example, a Deadwood Warrior summoned from an evergreen broadleaf pine has an ability that heals automatically, and a Deadwood Warrior summoned from a hard hemlock has an ability that is invulnerable to copper skin and bones.

Surprised, Yang Ling commanded a horned bee beast to bite Rablok fiercely. Sure enough, the deep wound automatically stopped bleeding, and contracted and recovered little by little, which was simply an unbeatable gold medal fighter.

After understanding the power of the deadwood warriors, Yang Ling quickly put away the more than ten meters tall Lablock, pulled Sophia back to the tribe, and set off to find the thousand-year-old tree with the surname of the spirit before dawn, hoping to strengthen his strength as soon as possible. Evil Eye has a strong attack but a lack of defense, and the Horned Bee is good at sneak attacks, but it is difficult to launch powerful attacks from the front against many high-level mages, and now he lacks a powerful subordinate like Lablock.

There is nothing else near the elven tribe, and thousand-year-old broadleaf pine trees are everywhere. But to Yang Ling's disappointment, after turning around for most of the day, he found only five thousand-year-old trees with spirit surnames, and what was even worse was that even if he exhausted his magic power and essence blood, he could only domesticate a dead wood warrior in one day.

After understanding Yang Ling's predicament, the elven elder took over the task of finding the thousand-year-old tree and sent all the priests out. At the same time, he sent someone to urgently contact the nearby elf tribes, hoping that they would help find the thousand-year-old tree with the spirit surname, and even more hope to obtain the life spring water from them that could quickly increase Yang Ling's magic power.

After hitting it off, the elven elder understood that strengthening Yang Ling's strength was equivalent to strengthening the strength of his own clan, so he spared no effort in all actions.

The Life Spring Water can quickly improve Yang Ling's cultivation, but it is a pity that the Life Spring Water accumulated by his tribe for many years has been exhausted, so he can only pin his hope on other elf tribes. The elven elders believed that after they understood the identity of the Yang Ling Shepherd, they would definitely not spare the rare spring of life, after all, the temptation of the deadwood warriors to the elven tribe was too great.

Next, in addition to domesticating the thousand-year-old tree with a spirit surname, Yang Ling seized the time to command the army to capture the demonic beasts and condense their essence blood to swallow. Without the Fountain of Life, the essence blood of demonic beasts is the quickest way to increase magical power. At the same time, you can also train the ability to cooperate with the Deadwood Warrior, the Horned Bee Beast, and the Evil Eye, killing two birds with one stone.

Ever since he domesticated the Deadwood Warrior, Yang Ling had found that the dark red magic power in his body had a hint of green, and his cultivation speed was faster, and he got twice the result with half the effort. Every time he sat on the treetops to cultivate, the majestic heaven and earth aura penetrated through his body like a waterfall, and at the same time, the nearby trees and even the grass emitted a trace of green energy, seeping into the skin all over his body.

More than a month later, Yang Ling had a full fifteen strong deadwood warriors. Of these, ten are self-healing pine warriors, and five are invulnerable hemlock warriors. At the same time, his magic power has greatly improved, and he can domesticate two ancient trees with spirit surnames every day, and he has cultivated to the last level of blood witches. As long as you work harder, I believe you can break through to the realm of spirit witches.
