Shasha~!
In the heart of the forest, giant kilometer-tall trees with branches wing at the sky loomed tall, their trunks adorned with gaping maws.
Shasha~!
Within the inner circle of the forest, bizarre crimson trees rustled, their eerie branches and leaves whispering in the wind, with red leaves fluttering through the air, casting a blood mist as they soared.
On the forest''s perimeter, trees draped in shades of blood also started to sway violently.
Bulging pustules swelled on their trunks, bursting open to release a tangle of strange branches that spread forth.
The crimson trees, within a few blinks, grew increasingly robust and expanded, their trunks seeming to writhe with thousands upon thousands of insects squirming beneath.
"Pfft—Boom!"
Some of the swollen trees suddenly burst, like overinted balls reaching their breaking point and exploding into a cloud of blood fog.
Within the blood fog, fragments of branches, roots, and bark were scattered in all directions.
When these tree fragments touched the ground, they melted away in a bizarre fashion, dissolving into the soil around them.
The next moment,
a blood-colored sapling broke through the earth, and nourished by the surrounding blood fog, it grew at a visible rate.
A blood tree was born!
A hundred blood trees were born!
Thousands, tens of thousands, millions of blood trees came to life one after another.
The Great Blood Tree Forest, which had been dormant for countless years, suddenly boiled with activity.
...
Da da~
Da da~!
Inside Tianyuan City, pebbles on the streets trembled slightly, and the chandeliers inside the houses began to swing.
"Is it an earthquake?"
Some Territory Citizens panicked.
"Could it be a Monster Tide attacking?"
Those in the know thought to themselves, but people who were well-informed dismissed the idea.
"No, the nearest tide is still a thousand kilometers away from our Tianyuan City."
Duke Gold had only just settled into an inn in Tianyuan City.
He looked down at the ground before quickly ascending to the inn''s rooftop, gazing into the west.
Tianyuan City was originally some twenty to thirty kilometers away from the very edge of the Great Blood Tree Forest.
From the rooftop of this barely ten-meter-tall inn, even someone of Legendary Realm status couldn''t see much, given the intervening hills and ridges.
However, at this moment, the horizon was filled with billowing dust, and birds and beasts took flight.
Within that cloud of dust, massive silhouettes grew ever taller, tearing through the dust to stand erect on the vast earth.
They were trees!
Gigantic trees at least hundreds of meters high, their branches extending eerily, incredibly lush, with blood trickling down their deep-red leaves.
From a distance, it appeared as though a colossal red mushroom had suddenly grown.
And this was not the first mushroom.
Soon after, a second, a third, a fourth, and more rose...
One after another, ''mushrooms'' hundreds of meters high sprouted up, appearing abruptly and, as they grew from far to near, seemed to be spreading toward Tianyuan City.
"What is that? It looks ominous, as if it''s spewing out something."
An elite guard murmured.
Duke Gold said, "It''s nt life, and I sense the presence of monsters from it. It seems the situation Tianyuan City faces is worse than we imagined."
He even began to hesitate whether he should offer his mercenary services to Tianyuan City.
In a situation against the tide, the Golden Commonwealth would definitely not ept the task.
"Lord Duke," the guardmander said, "let''s leave quickly before the bizarre Blood Trees spread here, or else... I''m afraid..."
The Duke of Gold slightly narrowed his eyes, fingers twirling a golden pen.
He was pondering.
Suddenly, a more intense tremor struck fiercely.
Apanied by a rumbling sound.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dust rose into the air, this time barely ten kilometers outside of Tianyuan City.
"More trees are growing!"
"No, wait, these trees are not as bizarre as the others!"
To the west of Tianyuan City, trees that had long since taken root began to consume the vitality within their bodies to grow wildly.
In the blink of an eye, trees as tall as one hundred, two hundred, three hundred meters stood erect to the city''s west, forming a verdant forest.
These trees, every one of them, were extensions of the power of one Lord Treeman after another from the Treeman Forest.
Through awork of roots, they transmitted their strength to this location.
Due to the distance, the power the Lord Treemen could exert here was not as great as it would be within the Treeman Forest.
But with the support of the Treeman Forest, their strength was unending and ever-increasing.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Guarded by enormous Treemen, at the centery a grand Ancient Sky Tree over a thousand meters tall.
Its branches were dense, and its leaves lush, as if with the strength of a single tree it held up a segment of the Azure Sky.
It towered even higher than the distant Blood Trees.
With itself as the core, it constructed a tree domain barrier, poised to halt the spread of the advancing Blood Tree Forest.
This was a battle between tree domains!
...
In the depths of the Blood Tree Domain, the Blood Tree King looked on.
It was slightly surprised.
"nt-type Troops? Treemen?"
"And they seem to be of the Epic Tier War Treemen?"

The Blood Tree King''s gaze ignited with excitement.
If it could Devour a War Treeman, the benefits to itself would be considerable!
Besides, a civil war within treedoms?
In the internal struggles of nt realms, the strong possess an all-epassing dominance over the weak, with no chance for the weak to triumph over the strong, or the small to defeat therge.
Just as within its own Great Blood Tree Forest, without its permission, no nt could survive by taking root.
It ruled over an entire region.
Wherever the Crimson Forest spread, it marked the boundaries of itsnd.
Now, seated upon a domain epassing thousands of miles of the Crimson Great Forest, how could it lose against Treemen that held merely a small patch of woods?
How could it lose with a hand of ten thousand cards?!
"Go!"
The Crimson Forest rapidly spread.
The green forest was spreading as well.
The crimson and green territories were soon bordering each other.
