The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Chapter 426 Black Dragon Flag

Within the massive tree demon, the clouds summoned by Li Muyang obscured the view.

In the midst of the clouds, Lord Shanyang transformed into a terrifyingly ugly monster and fought with the incarnation of the Bodhi Tree demon's annual rings for a full twenty minutes before finally destroying this incarnation.

After killing the annual-ring incarnation, Lord Shanyang immediately rushed forward, desperately, and started gnawing at the already stiff and icy corpse.

While gnawing, he said, "This one I defeated belongs to me."

"The next incarnation we encounter is yours! We'll take turns, one each!"

Lord Shanyang bit into the skin of the annual-ring incarnation, but no blood splattered.

The flesh of this annual-ring incarnation felt like Lingzhi mushrooms and emitted a refreshing fragrance when bitten into.

Seeing Li Muyang's astonished expression, Lord Shanyang explained, "Each of these incarnations of the old tree demon embodies a year's worth of essence it has absorbed from heaven and earth, making it the most nourishing of supplements."

"Just consider it as Spiritual Objects for consumption."

Lord Shanyang tore and chewed the annual-ring incarnation with big bites.

Soon, Lord Shanyang finished eating the annual-ring incarnation, and the two continued forward.

Inside the massive tree demon were extensive pathways and scattered spirit villages and towns.

The spirits living within this tree kingdom varied in strength.

The weaker spirits were similar to ordinary humans, while the stronger ones possessed Divine Skills.

Li Muyang and Lord Shanyang moved forward, quickly passing through three spirit towns and arriving at a broad avenue.

However, the spacious main road was filled with the traces of smoke and fire, seeming as though a considerable battle had broken out here not long ago.

Standing at the crossroads, looking at the mess before him, Lord Shanyang was somewhat surprised, "Eh? Is this... the remnants of the annual-ring incarnations?"

Lord Shanyang lay on the ground, sniffing and touching, and finally, he dipped a fingertip into a small pile of ashes and tasted it.

He was suddenly shocked.

"Someone has been roasting tree demon's annual-ring incarnations here!"

"Who is so audacious?" Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire

He had only dared to eat an annual-ring incarnation raw after defeating it, fearing that making a sound might attract the siege of surrounding spirits.

Yet now, someone was brazenly roasting annual-ring incarnations on the main road, not knowing how far the aroma had spread.

This time, Li Muyang and Shanyang conducted a brief search at the site before moving forward without lingering too long.

Then came the third town, the fourth...

What appeared in front of Li Muyang and his companion were successive towns of roaming spirits, all burned to ashes.

In each destroyed town, the roaming spirits' souls had been taken away; they died tragic deaths, their faces distorted in horror.

These roaming spirit immortals, who once dominated the North Land and spread fear among its beings, had never imagined that one day, an existence even more terrifying and powerful would invade their kingdom and harvest their souls.

And their enemy seemed to have suffered no casualties; there were even no signs of resistance from the roaming spirits on the battlefields.

It appeared that these roaming spirits had been reaped effortlessly.

It was not until they reached the sixth town, also reduced to ashes, that Li Muyang finally found a clue.

It was a piece of a torn flag, quietly lying in a corner of the ash-covered town, clearly torn during a fierce battle.

And this piece of flag was not from the Bodhi Tree Demon's kingdom but carried by outsiders.

Shanyang picked up the flag fragment and looked at it strangely.

Although the flag was tattered, the patterns and designs could still be faintly recognized—they depicted the tail of a black dragon.

"Black Dragon Flag..." Li Muyang also recognized the origin of the flag, his face showing astonishment, "Tianyuan Dynasty?"

The Black Dragon Flag is the totem banner of the Tianyuan Continent's Lu Imperial Dynasty.

It is said that the founder of the Lu Imperial Dynasty was born of a black dragon, possessing true dragon blood in his veins, extraordinary from birth, and unmatched in martial prowess.

In those days, when the Tianyuan Continent was fragmented, the founder of the Lu Dynasty rose powerfully and eventually unified the lands, establishing the Tianyuan Dynasty that lasted a thousand years.

Now, this group boldly entering the Bodhi Tree Demon, recklessly hunting and harvesting the roaming spirits' souls—could they actually be sent by the Tianyuan Dynasty?

Li Muyang's eyes widened in shock, not expecting that the decaying dynasty still harbored such power.

The south was already in chaos with rebels at their doorsteps; why would the Lu Dynasty not consolidate their forces for defense, yet send people to unnecessarily provoke the strongest evil being in the North Land, the Bodhi Tree Demon?

The first thing that came to Li Muyang's mind was absurdity.

Followed by an ominous premonition.

Not long ago, Glass Immortal Maiden had sent over a flying sword message, delivering a farewell letter, saying that there were demons causing trouble in the Capital City, and she was going to exorcize them.

Now, traces of the Tianyuan Dynasty appeared within the far reaches of the Bodhi Tree Demon—what hidden powers did this decaying Lu Dynasty truly hold?
