Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

The next day, early in the morning.

The sun is shining brightly, and the weather is fine; it's perfect for adventure and treasure hunting.

Jiang Chen stood on the shore, looking at the center of the lake, which was still shrouded in a thick fog, which became more and more exaggerated the further in you went.

Furthermore, the strange roars of monsters in the water could be heard from time to time.

"Day and night are the same, the fog is too thick, I can't wait any longer."

"Go on."

Jiang Chen threw the shield he was carrying forward. The shield did not fall to the ground; instead, it hovered in mid-air with the support of his mental power.

With a leap forward, Jiang Chen landed steadily on the shield, stepping on it and flying forward.

"If it were a sword, wouldn't that mean flying on a sword?" Jiang Chen suddenly thought, while continuing to fly forward on the shield without stopping.

The vast lake is covered with lush aquatic plants, and waves surge and churn on its surface, accompanied by strange roars from time to time.

"There are many aquatic monsters here, including many lord-level monsters. Fly higher and avoid them."

With a thought, Jiang Chen stepped on the shield, increasing his flight altitude and maintaining a distance of over a hundred meters from the lake surface.

"Rip!"

"Crack!"

Wandering, twisting arcs of electricity suddenly appeared from the water and shot towards Jiang Chen in the air. Fortunately, Jiang Chen had just increased his altitude and dodged repeatedly, which prevented these terrifying arcs from achieving their goal.

"An electric eel-like monster?"

Jiang Chen watched with curiosity the thick black lines rolling in the lake water and continued to move forward quickly.

When they had flown about two-thirds of the way, suddenly, a jet of water, like a cannonball, gushed out of the lake, its target Jiang Chen on the shield.

boom!

With a loud bang, Jiang Chen's shield was hit, and he tilted precariously, unable to maintain his balance as he fell downwards.

Jiang Chen's expression changed, and the nine flying needles in his pocket transformed into nine black streaks of light, piercing downwards into the lake and striking the monster with its gaping maw.

At the same time, he activated his mental power again, and the shield flew back to his feet.

Nine flying needles pierced the lake, accompanied by a strange roar, and a pool of blood gushed out from the water.

"receive."

Several streaks of light flew back and returned to the specially made bag.

"What kind of monster is that? It flies so high and can even spray water to attack?"

"If this were in the ocean, I'd really think it was some kind of whale that had turned into a monster."

Jiang Chen glanced at the lake below with lingering fear before continuing to fly on his shield.

If you fall into the water, you might be attacked by a group of aquatic monsters. The violent struggle and excessive consumption of energy and oxygen could cause you to die in the water.

That would be such a waste.

He died right at the beginning of his journey to becoming a war god?

The aquatic monsters in this lake are unusually numerous due to the presence of the Muya Crystal Powder; not only is the density of monsters high, but their quality is also exceptionally good.

The vast majority are lord-level aquatic monsters.

Furthermore, there are over ten thousand kinds of monsters on land, so you can imagine how many kinds of aquatic monsters there are. Therefore, like other martial artists, although Jiang Chen is very familiar with the world of Swallowed Star, he does not recognize many aquatic monsters.

These bizarre aquatic monsters possess many special abilities, such as generating electricity, spraying water, and using potent poisons...

Aquatic monsters have always been a formidable threat to warriors who hunt monsters on the mainland, and the ocean is their paradise.

Even the God of War could not venture into the depths of the ocean to hunt monsters; he could only build steel walls along the coast to prevent aquatic monsters from coming ashore.

For ordinary war gods, the greatest danger of death is an attack by a swarm of electric eel monsters. If they are not careful, they will be stunned by the electric shock, and within seconds they will fall into the water, where they will be entangled and torn apart!

Along the way, Jiang Chen also saw some large aquatic monsters fighting, and he also saw a monster that looked very similar to the dragon in Chinese legends, which made his eyes light up.

"A dragon pulling a cart, how majestic that must be!" Jiang Chen exclaimed.

I really want to catch a king-level monster right now and fly on a dragon.

After a while, Jiang Chen finally landed on a beach.

"Phew, this circle of aquatic monsters is like a guard, protecting this island in the middle of the lake."

Jiang Chen looked up at the dense jungle in front of him, which resembled a primeval forest with lush vegetation, yet there were no sounds of monsters.

Because this island is inhabited by even more terrifying plant spirits and cloud vines. Any monsters that enter this island will be killed by the living plant spirits on the island.

Therefore, even though there are many monsters in this lake, not a single one has entered the island to rest or forage.

The unusually quiet island felt eerie, like a haunted house, where terrifying monsters could suddenly burst out at any moment and give you a fright.

The spirit of plants is not only a panacea, but also a living plant!

For example, the heartwood of a thousand-year-old willow tree has powerful attack capabilities; each willow branch is exceptionally tough and can strangle any human or monster that gets too close.

Even the God of War could be killed if he wasn't careful when dealing with these willow-like plant spirits.

"I can't be greedy this time. Getting a thousand-year-old willow heart will be enough." Jiang Chen walked carefully through the dense forest, traversing the woods.

Trees grow in abundance, and grasses flourish.

This island shrouded in mist is full of life and vitality.

Jiang Chen cautiously made his way through the forest. He didn't pay attention when he passed a black vine, but accidentally touched it as he walked past.

Whoosh!

The vines suddenly rushed towards Jiang Chen, seemingly trying to bind him.

However, there are no blind spots for mentalists. Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light, and several streaks of light flew around. Each flying needle contained powerful penetrating force. In a short while, the vine was pierced into a sieve.

Looking at the vines lying on the ground, only slightly twitching, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's impossible to guard against. This island is full of plants, and it's impossible to tell which ones are normal plants and which ones are spirits of plants."

"Black vines? I don't know how to consume them. Oh well, let's keep going."

Jiang Chen continued walking cautiously, his mental energy radiating around his body, wary of any plants that might attack him.

……

The mutations of the Great Nirvana are actually mutations in animals; plants remain normal, except for a very small number of special plants.

For example, man-eating flowers, and the spirits of plants such as willows that arise under special circumstances.

An hour later.

"Found it." Jiang Chen looked ahead with delight.

Rows of willow trees stood in front of them, each one incredibly thick. The thinnest willow tree was about a meter in diameter, while the thickest one was three meters in diameter.

There are nine willow trees in total, and each willow tree has thousands of branches swaying in the wind.

"Of the nine willow trees, the other eight have heartwood that is a thousand years old, while the one in the middle has heartwood that is ten thousand years old."

"Moreover, the central willow king has very long branches that can support all the willows, so we must kill it first."

laugh!

In an instant, thousands of branches from the nine willow trees began to dance wildly, wrapping around Jiang Chen. Each of the large willow trees was enormous, and each branch was over a hundred meters long.

At this moment, willow branches spread out and wrapped around Jiang Chen.

Faced with the overwhelming attack, Jiang Chen was already prepared. Nine flying needles flew out of his backpack, like streaks of light, sweeping away the willow branches that filled the sky for Jiang Chen.

At the same time, Jiang Chen picked up his spear, swung it wildly, and charged towards a large willow tree in the middle.

This willow tree can be called the King of Willows, with a thickness of over three meters. Its branches, each shimmering with a pale gold hue, even made Jiang Chen, a high-level War God mentalist, feel a resistance when attacked.

"Alright, Shadowless Gun!"

Jiang Chen roared, his two spears flashing and creating sonic booms as they thrust out, leaving afterimages as they deflected the pale golden willow branches in front of him.

As they drew closer to the pale golden willow tree, they shouted, "Break!"

The terrifying power of a mid-level War God, combined with the terrifying mental power of a peak high-level War God mentalist, caused the spear to move so fast that it immediately emitted a terrifying sonic boom.

The instantaneous sprint speed exceeded ten times the speed of sound; terrifying power and extreme speed erupted in an instant.

The moment it touched the trunk of the King of Willows, it made a "sizzling" sound, and with this piercing sound, the spear pierced through the entire trunk of the King of Willows.

With a single burst of force, it pierced through the trunk of the most terrifying willow king.

Then, Jiang Chen used his mental power to swirl the Blood Cloud Spear, causing it to flip again, circle in the sky, and return to his hand.

"Boom!" The entire Willow King shook violently, and at the same time, the pale golden willow branches danced wildly, attacking Jiang Chen.

If it were a monster, this attack would have killed it, but this plant is clearly more resilient and is still fighting desperately.

"break!"

"break!"

"break!"

Jiang Chen acted again, using his physical strength as a mid-level War God, combined with his terrifying mental power, to pierce the willow tree with his spear time and time again.

Finally, the King of Willows died.

A breathtaking oval crystal was held in Jiang Chen's hand. Its green color, interspersed with wisps of gold, made Jiang Chen smile.

"A thousand-year-old willow heartwood, very good." Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

The value of this ancient willow heartwood is immeasurable; measuring it with money on Earth would be an insult to it.

"Continue! Without the Willow King blocking my way, the other willows are no match for me!"

Jiang Chen's eyes were sharp. As the only high-level peak mental master among the war gods on Earth, an invincible war god, he had this confidence!

"break!"

With each deep roar from Jiang Chen, and through his relentless efforts, one willow tree after another fell.

The spirits of nine willow trees and similar plants were successfully obtained.
