Reincarnated as a Divine Tree

Chapter 33: Great War

At this moment, the center of the battlefield was where the Blood Condensation Realm warriors of the two clans were clashing.

Oliver Chen was the most valiant, holding off two opponents with his late-stage Blood Condensation Realm strength, exuding an endless aura of power.

However, under the relentless attacks of the two Blood Condensation Realm warriors, he was beginning to struggle.

The Clan Chief, Ethan Chen, who had been deep in the Ancestral Hall, had also joined the fray. Despite being over sixty, his realm and rich combat experience allowed him to hold his ground against a Blood Condensation Realm warrior.

Apart from these two, the most remarkable figure was the Chen Clan’s Elder Ancestor, who had only one arm and one leg left.

Though the Elder Ancestor walked unsteadily, as if he might collapse at any moment, his body was as hard as iron. Even the full-force attacks of mid-stage Blood Condensation Realm warriors could only push him back.

The dents on his body from the attacks did not affect his strength.

Noah Ji watched in awe. If the Chen Clan had a few more Elder Ancestors, their current situation might not be so dire.

In the battles among Blood Condensation Realm warriors, the Chen Clan could barely hold their own.

But in the skirmishes among Body Tempering Realm warriors, the Chen Clan was at a clear disadvantage.

The Li Clan had more Body Tempering Realm warriors, including several late-stage ones. After a short while, several members of the Chen Clan were injured, weakening their combat strength.

If not for the earlier sneak attack that injured some of the Li Clan’s warriors and eliminated a few, the Chen Clan might have already been defeated.

Even so, Ethan Chen and the others wouldn’t be able to hold out much longer.

Even the Elder Ancestor was showing signs of exhaustion. If he lost another limb, the Chen Clan would likely face swift defeat.

At this critical moment, a late-stage Body Tempering Realm warrior was knocked down by his opponent’s punch, severely injured and unable to hold on.

His hand fumbled in his chest pocket, and soon a piece of Sophora Leaf appeared in his palm.

When he crushed the Sophora Leaf, a surge of powerful Qi and Blood energy flowed into his body.

In the next moment, this Body Tempering Realm warrior, as if possessed by a martial deity, leaped from the ground with his injured body and, in a single move, killed his opponent.

After killing his opponent, the late-stage Body Tempering Realm warrior looked at his hands in bewilderment.

He couldn’t believe that such power was his own. Not only had his Qi and Blood increased, but even his injuries seemed to have vanished.

Recalling what the Clan Chief had said about the Sacred Tree’s temporary protection, the warrior didn’t hesitate any longer and turned to attack an early-stage Blood Condensation Realm enemy.

The Blood Condensation Realm warrior, who was entangled with the Chen Clan’s Elder Ancestor, snorted coldly:

“Overestimating yourself.”

He then freed a hand, intending to quickly deal with this reckless late-stage Body Tempering Realm warrior.

Though they were only a small realm apart, he had already tempered his entire body and enhanced his Qi and Blood, something a Body Tempering Realm warrior couldn’t withstand.

But after a single exchange, the Blood Condensation Realm warrior looked at his fists in doubt.

Wasn’t he in the Blood Condensation Realm?

Why hadn’t he shattered the Body Tempering Realm warrior’s body or arm with a single punch?

Seeing that he could indeed fight a Blood Condensation Realm warrior with the help of the Sophora Leaf, the warrior was overjoyed and charged at his enemy again.

At this moment, other members of the Chen Clan noticed this scene. Among the combatants, one person, eyes filled with uncertainty, took out his own piece of Sophora Leaf and crushed it.

Those who used the Sophora Leaf instantly saw their combat strength skyrocket, charging into the fray with unstoppable momentum.

For a moment, the Li Clan’s members screamed in agony.

The Chen Clan, initially at a disadvantage, suddenly turned the tide in the Body Tempering Realm battles.

“What the hell is that thing!”

A late-stage Blood Condensation Realm warrior from the Li Clan exclaimed in confusion and disbelief as he observed the battlefield.

Seeing the unfavorable situation, the late-stage Blood Condensation Realm warrior decided not to delay any longer. He planned to quickly deal with Oliver Chen with another clan member to relieve the pressure on their side.

But suddenly, he saw a familiar piece of Sophora Leaf in Oliver Chen’s hand.

“What on earth is that thing!”

When he saw Oliver Chen crush the Sophora Leaf, his aura surged, almost breaking through to the Innate Realm. The late-stage Blood Condensation Realm warrior could no longer contain his shock.

He couldn’t understand how a piece of Sophora Leaf could unleash such powerful energy.

Without giving him much time to think, Oliver Chen, feeling his strength increase, launched another attack.

This time, the power of the Sophora Leaf seemed even stronger than he had imagined, making him feel like he was touching the threshold of the Innate Realm.

Oliver Chen was overjoyed, and with his previous experience, he quickly mastered this borrowed power.

In the next exchange with the Li Clan’s Blood Condensation Realm warrior, he noticed several flaws in his opponent’s defense that he had never seen before.

After two rounds, the Li Clan warrior who had planned to quickly deal with Oliver Chen and help his comrades found his entire body numbed by Oliver Chen’s punches.

He felt his Qi and Blood stagnate, clearly due to internal injuries sustained in the recent fight.

The mid-stage Blood Condensation Realm warrior fighting alongside him fared even worse, his entire body flushed red. Another round might cause him to explode from the intense Qi and Blood.

Not only Oliver Chen, but even the previously unnoticed Mason Chen now displayed strength far beyond his usual capabilities.

With everyone using the Sophora Leaf, the clan’s situation completely changed.

Seeing their people suffering heavy casualties and the Clan Chief nowhere in sight, the late-stage Blood Condensation Realm warrior from the Li Clan no longer hesitated and shouted:

“Retreat, retreat quickly!”

Upon hearing this, the already fearful members of the Li Clan began to flee frantically.

But Ethan Chen, seeing the situation improve, wouldn’t let them escape.

The power of the Sacred Tree was not endless; otherwise, there wouldn’t be only a few pieces of Sophora Leaf this time.

With the Sacred Tree’s protection, they could achieve a great victory today. But if the Li Clan returned in the future, could the Sacred Tree still provide such power? The clan might truly face a dead end then.

How could they miss this opportunity?

Thinking of this, Ethan Chen roared:

“Kill them all! Don’t let a single one escape!”

The Clan Chief’s shout boosted the morale of the clan members, while the Li Clan’s morale plummeted. Knowing they were no match, why fight to the death?

In battles between clans, without the courage to face life and death, how could they achieve a great victory?

Not far away, Joshua Li, who was fighting Elijah Chen, heard the retreat order and chuckled:

“Elijah Chen, did you hear that?”

“Your Chen Clan is already defeated. Why struggle? Surrender, and I might spare your life.”
