Creating gods in the Hunter x Hunter world

At this moment, Jin unleashed his full telekinetic power, clenched his fist, and swiftly struck at his opponent.

The powerful punch cracked the bodies of the withered tree clan.

However, no blood flowed. Upon landing, several members of the Drywood Clan were instantly shattered into pieces, appearing as if they were dead beyond any doubt.

However, the fragments quickly moved, flew up, and eventually pieced themselves back together.

These broken bodies, with their roots deeply embedded in the ground, can resurrect indefinitely; this is the most terrifying aspect of the withered tree clan.

To deal with the withered tree clan, also known as the stone tiger, one must turn the entire withered tree into stone before swallowing it; only then can one kill the opponent.

"This is really troublesome."

"Alright, we've tried it, let's go." Fu Long pulled Jin along, and together with Billy, they disappeared from the spot.

"Humans, cunning humans!" roared the leader of the Drywood Clan.

The Drywood Clan is considered an ancient clan, so records show that they have encountered humans a few times.

Of all the humans who entered this place, all but one, who eventually fled, remained here.

But these people in front of me are different; this time, not a single one of them stayed.

This angered the leader greatly. In addition, he had a feeling that if these people were released, his clan would be in great trouble.

When Fu Long and his group came out of the Mountain God Temple, they saw Qi Duo and the Twelve Branches standing to one side, discussing their next move with the Drunkard and a few others.

The group discussed the matter intensely, but ultimately came up with no good ideas.

After all, from the current perspective, the Drywood Clan is indeed unsolvable.

Even if the dead trees are destroyed by fire, they will still grow back.

Because not far away, the first dead tree they burned, and the tree they destroyed, has now grown back.

The still, dead tree seemed harmless, but in reality, it was just that the other party didn't want to make a move at first.

“We’ll have to take a detour,” Qiduo finally said. “We can go through the other side, to the territory of the Wandering Clan. If we really want to enter the Sky City, we can go and take a look.”

Fu Long and his group happened to walk over.

Jin shook his head and said, "It's best not to. Let me put it this way, once we enter the Wandering Clan, no more than half of us will survive."

Yes, everyone looked at Jin.

Jin closed his eyes and recalled some previous records, then summarized: "The Wandering Clan will randomly teleport people to their territory after they are sucked in. To leave that territory, you must defeat the guard of that territory."

"You mean we'll be teleported separately, and then some of us won't be a match for those guards?" Qi Duo analyzed.

Jin simply nodded.

Qi Duo was somewhat unconvinced.

But Jin reached out to her and said, "You don't need to be unconvinced. That's just how it is. I should only be able to barely pass those guards."

"Wait, how do you know all this?" Qi Duo looked at Jin curiously.

Jin grinned and said, "Of course I heard it from the Wandering Clan. Otherwise, who do you think would have left such a record?"

"I heard?" Fu Long squinted at Jin. "You heard it from the Wandering Clan?"

Besides, when will you have the chance to leave this place? I've never heard of this kind of thing before.

"Wait, you've already activated the Beast Arena?" Potobby suddenly asked.

Fu Long then realized that there was such a situation.

These past few days, during his nighttime rest, Jin has likely used the Beast Arena. He has already defeated the Wandering Clan and learned about this from them.

That's possible, and if Jin has fought them before, then it makes sense that he knows their strength.

Thinking of this, Fu Long gasped. If that was the case, then they really couldn't go to the other side. In other words, there was no way out.

Chapter 496 The Weakness of the Dead Tree Clan

The Wandering Clan is very strong. Jin barely managed to break through their defenses. He has fought against the Wandering Clan in the arena and is the most qualified to speak on this matter.

As one of the five great Nen users, besides those with strengths like Netero and Potobye, there are many among the twelve Zodiacs who are weaker than Gold.

The twelve zodiac signs are indeed very powerful, but not all of them are combat-oriented.

People like Piyou will probably run into problems.

As for Fu Long, if we're really talking about ability, he's the only one who has a chance; the other four don't meet the standard.

This is very troublesome. We can't leave the territory of the Wandering Clan, and the territory of the Drywood Clan is in a different situation.

Does this mean we can't get past this point?

Jin found a place to sit down and said, "So, let's try to find a way to get through this deadwood forest. Although it's dangerous, at least with cooperation, we can reduce our casualty rate."

Everyone quieted down. If what Jin said was true, then they really needed to consider it.

The problem is, after discussing it for so long, no one has come up with a good idea, not even something like the fire and wine combination from before.

The Deadwood Forest, with its ability to transform deathly energy into withered life, is truly extraordinary.

"Let's set up camp first, and then we can think of a better strategy." Qi Duo had no choice but to give the order.

The campsite was quickly set up, and everyone gathered in the central tent.

However, no one spoke; everyone was thinking of their own solutions, hoping to come up with some ideas soon.

"If you ask me, we should just charge straight in. Alcohol and fire won't work, but we can try oil. We have gasoline in our camp, so bring it all. I don't believe we can't set this forest on fire."

Kansai was the first to speak; he really couldn't sit still.

Everyone else shook their heads. It was normal for Kansai to come up with such an idea; he wasn't the type to think things through, so they couldn't really say anything.

The alcohol that the drunkard drinks is no ordinary stuff; it's just as good as gasoline.

Moreover, even using foxfire couldn't extinguish the Deadwood Forest, so do you think gasoline would be useful?

"If we don't stop, but instead light fires and move forward through the fire, and then push down any trees that block our way after they're on fire, we can cross the entire forest of dead trees in a straight line. I wonder if that's possible?"

Chief Sa also came up with an idea.

“Obviously impossible. I simulated the way the Drywood Clan attacked today. They actually have ways to put out the fire, and once we go deeper, we will still be surrounded,” Piyu objected.

"What if we ally with the Shihu clan? They're capable of wiping out the Kumu clan, aren't they?" Kansai suggested another idea.

And what's rare is that it's actually quite reliable.

"That's unrealistic. The Stone Tiger Clan probably won't take the risk. That's one point. On the other hand, the Deadwood Forest is the territory of the Deadwood Clan. Neither the Stone Tiger Clan nor we can unleash our full fighting power there, but the Deadwood Clan can. Therefore, even if we form an alliance, I believe they won't enter the Deadwood Forest with us."

The group discussed it for a while, but they couldn't come up with a good solution.

"Isn't there any way to make the dead trees completely disappear and prevent them from growing again?" Gu Gu said at this moment. "If the dead tree forest itself cannot grow again, then the dead tree clan is actually easier to deal with."

Everyone nodded.

The group sensed the fighting power of the Drywood Clan.

In terms of combat strength alone, it's nothing.

With their strength, they could potentially kill their opponent instantly in a one-on-one situation.

But the trouble lies in the woods.

The Deadwood Forest can provide an endless supply of nutrients for the Deadwood Clan, allowing them to revive indefinitely and suffer no harm even when injured. This is what makes it the most difficult to deal with.

Everyone fell silent again.

However, Jin looked at Fu Long and said, "You haven't said anything. What are you thinking about?"

Everyone looked at Fu Long. Come to think of it, everyone had joined in the discussion earlier. There was no other way; at least they could make things difficult for others, right?

But Fu Long remained silent.

Not only him, but also Billy and the other drunkards beside him were very quiet.

The drunkards and their group completely follow Fu Long's lead, so they should be waiting for Fu Long to speak.

Fu Long rubbed his temples and said, "I was thinking about what those people from the Drywood Clan said earlier, and I feel like there's something I've overlooked."

Jin also fell into deep thought. He was over there, so he heard what the withered tree clan said, but was there something he had overlooked?

Billian was also deep in thought, and as a result, the surroundings became quiet.

Everyone looked at Fu Long. What could be so important to Fu Long?

"What did they say after we left?"

Qiduo suddenly asked.

Fu Long felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, so he said, "It doesn't seem to be what he said later. You should have been there at the time. There must be something in his words that I overlooked."

“If that’s the case, I remember everything I said,” Chief Sa said at this moment.

He also repeated everything the withered tree clan had said before he returned, word for word.

From tracking them down to letting them delve deeper, to finally saying that death energy can revive dead trees.

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Fu Long again.

Fu Long frowned and said, "It seems like it's missing a little bit of feeling. Say it again."

Chief Sa then repeated what he had said.

At this point, Kansai said, "They were saying that while they were attacking us, right? The fighting had already started."

A sudden inspiration seemed to strike him, and Fu Long immediately understood what Guan west had said.

That's right, the fighting had already started, and the dead trees were no longer charred black, but had returned to their normal state, and were being hurled at them.

This is where the problem lies.

Fu Long's vision cleared, and he finally realized what he had overlooked in the words.

Moreover, it was because of my subconscious that I had not noticed such an obvious flaw all along.

"That's good. If I'm not mistaken, crossing the Deadwood Forest will be a very simple matter for us, and even the Deadwood Clan won't be able to stop us."

"Teacher, have you discovered the weakness of the withered tree clan?"

"Well, I would say this is not a weakness. I'm more inclined to believe that it's a backdoor left when the Drywood Clan was created, but no one has discovered it until now."
