I transformed into a demonic spider lily.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Aren't you tree spirits bored staying in the same place since you were born? This time, let's change the scenery for them, create a new auspicious place, and put a dozen or so tree spirits together. When they're bored, they can gossip. It's all beneficial, right?"

The red spider lily listed many reasons and finally persuaded the old tree spirit to make the decision to migrate. Only the poplar tree, who was also a tree spirit, could understand the loneliness of the tree spirits.

A tree spirit is lucky if it can even speak to a demon in ten years; it might never see its own kind in its entire life. If it could choose its birthplace again, even if its cultivation level couldn't improve, it would still seek out a place where its own kind lived.

Now that the decision had been made, it was time to take action. The first thing Higanbana needed to do was choose who would carry out the task, so she turned to look at the monsters beside her.

White Wolf was fiddling with her bow and arrows, awkwardly imitating Kikyo's bow-drawing movements, firing wildly with "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," and all the arrows stuck in Tu Bi's head.

At this moment, Tu Bi finally stood up. It wasn't that it was angered by the white wolf, but rather that it didn't care about the white wolf shooting arrows at it. The main reason was that those arrows had little power and didn't even penetrate its defenses; they just got stuck in the cracks in the soil.

Tu Bi tried to slap it away, but Bai Lang rushed over and shouted, "No! Silly Bi, stop! If you do that, Lady Kikyo's arrow will break!"

Upon hearing the name "Kikyo," Tu Bi froze, fearing that he might accidentally break the arrow and then be attacked by both the Higanbana and Kikyo.

"I got the arrows from Kikyo for you, not for you to play around with. If you keep shooting randomly, I'll confiscate your bow and arrows."

The other shore flower pulled the arrow off Tu Bi's head and then returned it to the white wolf.

After being lectured by the spider lily, the white wolf hugged her longbow and arrows tightly and whispered, "I know I was wrong."

They'll do it again next time.

"You can practice archery, but you need to find a good target. A silly monster like Tu Bi is big and slow. What sense of accomplishment would you get from hitting it? If you really want to practice, I recommend the wolf next to you. It's a good size and a good speed. You can chase after it and shoot at it in the future."

Suddenly, the other shore flower steered the conversation to Wolf Wild, who was secretly laughing because White Wolf had been taught a lesson.

"Ah~ why?"

Wolfy Gan suddenly shuddered.

"Moderate size, moderate speed, haven't you noticed the problem, you wolf demon? When you successfully lose weight, reduce your size, and increase your speed to an extreme level, I will retract that order."

Having said that, the Spider Lily looked at the White Wolf, then waved her hand and shouted, "White Wolf, use 'Literary Shot'!"

What is "Wen She"?

The white wolf didn't react either.

Wolfy had already run away by then.

"If I don't hit the wolf's mantle before sunset, I'll return your arrow!" said the spider lily.

At the same time, the white wolf hurriedly chased after the wolf yegan.

Chapter Sixty-One: Protecting the Forest is Huahua's Responsibility!

"Tu Bi, get up and get to work."

After Langyegan and Bailang left one after the other, Bi'anhua called out to Tubi, and then led a group of huge and powerful monsters such as bear demons and bull demons.

They arrived in front of the first tree spirit.

It was a willow tree that had become a demon. Seeing a group of demons surrounding it, it hurriedly turned to the spider lily and asked nervously, "Lord Spider Lily, I haven't done anything wrong, have I? What are you doing?"

"Don't ask, just do it!"

The red spider lily was too lazy to explain to it, and simply raised one hand.

After receiving instructions, the surrounding monsters stepped forward. They had already heard the specific steps from the other shore flower. First, loosen the soil. Several strange insect monsters had already begun to wreak havoc underground, which immediately made the willow tree monster's foundation unstable. Then, the surrounding ground cracked open, and its monster body began to tilt to one side.

"It's going to collapse! It's going to collapse! It's going to collapse!"

The willow tree spirit screamed wildly.

However, just as the tree trunk was about to fall to the ground, two enormous monsters picked it up and then, with a "heave-ho, heave-ho," headed towards the plains behind the eastern mountains.

“Very good. Although it was still a bit rough, at least 75% of the root system is intact.”

Seeing this, the spider lily finally felt relieved, and the poplar tree next to it also breathed a sigh of relief. They hadn't expected that the former's method would actually work. It turned out that tree spirits could also migrate before they took human form. Why hadn't they thought of this before?

"Tu Bi, you will take my place in supervising and working with Zhou Shuren to complete this mission."

Now that the first lesson was successful, the Spider Lily could leave the rest to herself. After all, if she still needed to personally direct such a simple matter, it would only mean that these monsters were unteachable.

As for why Tu Bi and the poplar tree were chosen? One trusted confidant was responsible for standing there and acting cute, while the other was responsible for finding other tree spirits living in the forests and mountains.

A very balanced distribution.

Then, the other shore flower remembered something else, so she called to a monster who was still beside her. It was the mantis monster who spent his days hanging out with Wolf Wild. She said, "Help me call the three-tailed fox clan chief over here."

"Yes," the mantis monster replied.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side of the forest.

"Ah, ah ah ah! You stupid wolf demon, what did I ever do to you? Why are you chasing me like this? If you want to shoot arrows, go shoot other monsters."

As expected, the other shore flower's guess was correct. Wolf Wild, who always bullies the weak, is actually a guy who is strong on the outside, no, it should be said that he is weak on the inside and weak on the outside, and his four-dimensional attributes are particularly poor.

It hadn't run very far before it started panting, and it still hadn't shaken off the white wolf behind it. This showed that even with its powerful demonic energy, it still couldn't bridge the gap in attributes.

"Just let me stab you once, okay?!"

The white wolf ran extremely fast. Although her demonic power was weak, she still managed to keep up with the speed of the wolf. However, her archery skills were terrible, and she couldn't hit her opponent at all. She had no choice but to settle for second best and simply use the arrow in her hand as a weapon to stab the opponent's body. This way, she could give the other shore flower an explanation when she returned.

"I don't want to get hit by that!"

Wolfy couldn't accept it. Although he could recover from being stabbed by the other party in three minutes at most, who would want to be beaten up for no reason?

The two wolf demons circled the forest twice, then returned to their original spot, the location of the spider lily. Wolf Yegan's figure immediately did a 720° spin...

Finally, with a "slap," he quickly knelt down in front of the Red Spider Lily, begging for mercy: "Lord Red Spider Lily, please spare me! I promise I will cultivate diligently from now on and never cause trouble again."

"Waaah~ So close."

The white wolf arrived at the scene shortly after, and upon seeing this, knew she had no chance. She could only look aggrieved, revealing two sharp wolf fangs that were quite adorable, and she even hid the arrow in her hand.

"Wolf Wild, you're back just in time. I happen to have something here that I need you to handle for me." At this moment, the Spider Lily was admiring her slender fingers, then her crimson pupils swept over them.

"Lady Higanbana, you were looking for me?"

The three-tailed fox arrived in a hurry at that moment.

"Hmm, Three-Tailed Fox, since you've already moved to the forest, why don't we just move the forest you used to live in here too?"

This was the idea that suddenly flashed into the mind of the spider lily: since there was already a precedent for transplanting trees, let's go all the way.

The forest where the Three-Tailed Fox lived originally belonged to the yokai, so why should humans be allowed to use it? Therefore, the Spider Lily decided to requisition those trees in the name of "protecting the forest is the responsibility of the yokai".

These existing trees, under the cultivation of the tree spirit, will surely grow better, and the time required to cultivate the forest can also be reduced, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"What... what is this?"

The three-tailed fox clearly didn't understand.

"In short, you and Langyegan will lead the team. You will be responsible for leading the way, and Langyegan will be responsible for recruiting the monsters that still live in the forest. Then I will assign you a few hundred miscellaneous, uh ah, I mean 'strange' monsters, as well as some suitable monsters to accompany you on your journey."

After saying that, another large group of monsters returned. They were the same guys who had moved the tree spirits at the beginning. So, the other shore flower casually pointed to them and said, "Those are the monsters. I'll lend you my services for one night. Make sure you move the entire forest back to me. They'll know the specific steps."

"Yes."

The three-tailed fox nodded, still somewhat dazed, as if she only needed to go through the motions.

And so the decision was made so simply. Then, the Red Spider Lily led the White Wolf to the plains behind the mountains.

A river runs through plains, mountains, and forests. Twenty pits have been dug along the riverbank. Don't underestimate the monster's digging ability; it can handle this little thing in no time. Then, the tree spirit can be replanted here.

"With a mountain on one side and water on the other, and a wide view on both sides, the feng shui is excellent. You twenty tree spirits can also get together to chat and relieve boredom, how about it?" the other shore flower asked.

Upon hearing this, the tree spirits exchanged glances, maintaining a distance of about five meters between them. This place was not as noisy as the forest, and they could communicate with each other in a lively manner. Although they had been dug up here inexplicably, it seemed to be not bad. Moreover, they dared not complain in front of the spider lily.

So, the Red Spider Lily took out her map, added some green markings next to a line drawn with blue dye, and finally wrote the four characters "Forest of Tree Spirits" on the blank plain.

……

Meanwhile, the three-tailed fox had just arrived in the forest when Wolf Wild caused a ruckus, attracting nearly a hundred long-snake monsters. Then, they were pinned to the ground and forcibly subdued by the bull demon, bear demon, and other large monsters...

Then they watched as they drove a group of "strange" monsters to wreak havoc underground, causing large areas of trees to fall and be lifted onto the bodies of the long-snake monsters. Two of these monsters walking side by side could take away three trees.

Throughout the entire process, the three-tailed fox tilted her head, her suspicious expression never fading. What exactly happened? Even at the very end, when she looked at the once-gathered forest transformed into an empty plain, she still couldn't find the answer.

In addition, there is another matter I must mention.

The next day at noon, when the people who had come to cut down trees arrived with their axes, they were taken aback for a moment. They then turned around and looked at the road they had come from, wondering if they had taken the wrong road.

What about such a large forest?

I was here yesterday!

……

"From now on, you will be competitors. I will give you one month. By then, whichever of you expands the largest area of ​​the forest, I will bestow my demon blood upon them and nourish their roots with my demon blood."

The Red Spider Lily distributed the tree spirits under her rule in units of twenty across a plain of nearly 270 hectares, totaling twenty-four. She then provided one to two hundred trees brought in from outside as initial resources, and decided on the time and rewards to begin the competition.

The demon blood of the spider lily is coveted even by the demons within the Shikon Jewel, let alone these tree demons before us. It's like a dragon seed; no matter how inferior a creature is, once it comes into contact with dragon blood, it will transform into a subspecies of divine beast.

Although her demon blood didn't have such a huge effect, it was close enough to improve her cultivation level slightly, speed up her cultivation process, and give her almost all the necessary abilities.

Although there are side effects.

It's just that their cultivation level will never reach SR level, since they are of foreign blood. But it's hard to say whether these tree demons can reach R level in their entire lives, so they certainly won't care. Giving a little blood is not out of the question.

Sure enough, after the other shore flower explained everything, the tree spirits sprang into action and became quite active. It seemed that what was supposed to be a six-month plan could be resolved in just one month.

"I'm such a little genius."

Chapter Sixty-Two: No Time to Explain, Get in the Car!

The construction of the Demon Realm is growing at an exponential rate. However, this good news only makes the Other Shore Flower more anxious. The number of demons under her command is constantly increasing, but her strength has not improved at all. Although she estimates that it will take a month to reach the next level, this is already a miraculous level of progress.

But...

Even after breaking through the barrier of just one level and filling up her experience bar, it still takes a month. So, wouldn't it take three months to go from level 24 to level 25? Then six months, then another year, and reaching SSR level would take forty or fifty years. Compared to those legendary great monsters, it's quite fast, but the problem is that she can't wait that long.

According to her plan, the Demon Realm will be completed in ten years at the latest. By then, without the power of a great demon, she may not be able to suppress those demons.

That is, it will backfire.

Therefore, she had to do something.

Higanbana opened the hand-drawn map and realized that she no longer needed to look at the mountains and forests in eastern Musashi Province; there was no way she could possibly have any rivals there.
