Chapter 587 The Willow Tree Spirit, The Willow Forest
Chapter 587 The Willow Tree Spirit, The Willow Forest
Jiang Han ultimately abandoned his decision to have the undead water demons fight each other. Although doing so would quickly filter out the truly elite undead, it would be too time-consuming.
It's still a treasure hunt, and he needs to find his teammates. There might be other unexpected encounters along the way. Those weak undead can be used as cannon fodder in the treasure hunt.
Jiang Han then landed on the back of a relatively spacious undead water monster, and ordered the undead water monster to head towards the green forest they had seen earlier, while he sat cross-legged on the back of the undead sea monster to begin recovering his magic power.
He had expended a lot of energy in this battle, and if he were to encounter another powerful demon, he was afraid that his undead sea monsters would not be enough to handle it. Therefore, restoring his magic power was an urgent matter.
······
While Jiang Han rode the undead water demon to land, the big shots watching the game in Venice were in an uproar, all of them shocked by the strength Jiang Han had displayed.
"I'm reporting him! I'm reporting this Chinese man! He definitely cheated!!!"
"At less than twenty years old, to have a monarch-level undead creature as one's contracted beast—do you all think that's possible?"
Before anyone else could recover from the shock, Abe no Jiro from the island nation eagerly jumped out.
His words were filled with excitement at having found a weakness in the Chinese team. He felt that he could use this to kick the Chinese team out of the championship race in advance. As for which country would win the championship in the end, he didn't care too much. As long as it wasn't China, Abe no Jiro was fine with it. After all, he was an extreme anti-China element.
In fact, when the two monarch-level creatures appeared in the projection of the Eye Eagle, many big shots were drawn to them. When Jiang Han used the Undead Hymn to revive a large number of undead water demons, everyone was shocked by the strength Jiang Han displayed. Then they saw Jiang Han order the monarch-level bone dragon to attack and kill the Illusionary Void Poison Dragon.
"Monarch-level contracted beasts are supposed to be very difficult for even super-level mages to cultivate, so this..." A mage representative watching couldn't help but raise his doubts.
"Yes, it's unheard of for a high-level mage to possess a monarch-level contracted beast." Immediately afterward, someone else chimed in.
More and more people were discussing the matter, and many looked at the chief referee in charge of the treasure hunt and the representative of the Hunter Alliance, hoping to get some response. However, neither the chief referee nor the Hunter King representing the Hunter Alliance said anything more than a slight smile.
Before the treasure hunt even began, they started collecting information on the contestants from various sources. Little did these people know how shocked they were when they saw that Jiang Han possessed a monarch-level contracted beast.
Keep in mind that this is just one of the young man's outstanding qualities; there are also many other things, such as advanced mastery of self-created magic, special dual-talent awakening, and so on.
Although the information provided by the Chinese side is certainly still being kept, they are still willing to give a push to witness the rise of such an outstanding young monk. After all, the good karma of today might help them in the future.
Moreover, this young man is a certified five-star demon hunter master by their Hunter Alliance. You should know that he is a representative of the younger generation of demon hunter masters in the Hunter Alliance. In addition, the drowning curse incident that caused quite a stir before was solved by this young man and his companions. All of the above are the reasons why the referee and the Hunter King did not speak.
This guy just refuses to acknowledge the excellence of China's younger generation; they know the inside story and wouldn't bother with him anyway. Only an idiot would antagonize such outstanding young talents.
"No problem, this student from Huaxia Academy did not cheat," the referee said calmly before continuing to watch the match.
Anyone who's managed to get to this position is a shrewd person, and they quickly realized what was going on and continued watching the match. Only Abe no Jiro, who spoke first, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Hahaha." Pang Lai couldn't help but laugh out loud. He was a little worried before, but now he was completely relieved.
Such an excellent summoning mage will surely achieve even greater things in the future than he, the chief court official. Pang Lai was genuinely happy!
······
Jiang Han, who had been cultivating on the back of the undead water demons for an unknown amount of time, finally stopped. He opened his eyes and saw the lush forest on the shore. He took a deep breath, stretched lazily, and stepped ashore, with the undead water demons following closely behind.
"Hmm? Nu Jiao is actually here." Jiang Han hadn't gone far into the forest when he sensed the spatial mark he had left on Mu Nu Jiao.
After Jiang Han put the undead water demons following behind him into his undead space, he immediately summoned the Azure Cloud Wings and flew towards where Mu Nujiao was.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Willow Forest, Mu Nujiao was battling several large tree spirits. Although her plant magic was more powerful in this environment, she still couldn't defeat these tough tree spirits in a short time.
After stepping into the spatial teleportation array, Mu Nujiao arrived directly in this forest. Upon arriving, Mu Nujiao did not act rashly, but carefully explored the surrounding environment.
It was precisely because of this caution that she wasn't eliminated directly; otherwise, Mu Nujiao would already be back at the Venice stadium by now.
This forest is not as simple as it seems. It is eerily quiet, with no other living creatures besides trees, not even ordinary birds. This situation is caused by the vine and willow tree spirits that are sleeping in the forest.
During her investigation, Mu Nujiao saw no fewer than a hundred skeletons, some as long as ten meters and others less than a meter. This made Mu Nujiao even more cautious, and she dared not use magic lightly for fear of waking up the sleeping demons.

The reason she ended up being attacked by several willow tree spirits was mainly because she accidentally broke a bone covered with countless withered leaves. The sound of the bone breaking startled the willow tree spirit closest to her.
Upon discovering Mu Nujiao, the intruder, the awakened willow tree spirit immediately flung out several willow branches. The branches were thin and long, resembling spears. If anyone was hit, they would be sucked dry by the willow tree spirit in an instant, without even having time to send out a distress signal.
Although the awakened vine willow tree spirit was only a warrior-level being less than a hundred years old, Mu Nujiao, who knew how terrifying the vine willow tree spirit was, dared not be careless at all. She didn't care whether casting magic would awaken the other sleeping vine willow tree spirits. The cyan star track was connected in an instant, and then she stepped on the cyan floating platform and fled in one direction.
After seeing the demon hunter escape, the willow tree spirit pulled several of its branches out of the ground and used them as legs to chase after the fleeing Mu Nujiao.
Every step she took shook the earth, and the violent tremors quickly awakened the other tree spirits along the way. As a result, more and more tree spirits began to pursue Mu Nujiao until she was blocked by a hundreds-year-old leader-level tree spirit. Only then did Mu Nujiao have no choice but to stop fighting with these vine and willow tree spirits. She was unwilling to tear open the spatial scroll and leave until the very end.
