Ascension of the Sylvan Cosmos. Chapter 358. The Dignity of the Arboreal Winged Serpents

“How is the feeling of your essence transforming?”

Liu Shu’s core tightened as the voice of the Corrupted World Tree echoed in her mind. The feeling was similar to soone dragging their nails on a chalkboard. Moreover, together with the corrupted fluids traveling through her sap veins, Liu Shu’s mood was starting to have so changes.

“Annoying! Obediently surrender and get destroyed!”

Liu Shu’s energy surged as she counterattacked, the powerful roots striking the enemy and slowly overpowering her. After the few buffs that her skills and titles gave her, Liu Shu’s broke through the 10,000 mark, far above the Corrupted World Tree, which specialized in ; summoning is as natural as breathing for ! , !”

Liu Shu’s face turned solemn as a black and yellow cloud rose in the distance. The Level of these monsters was probably not that high, but their numbers were ridiculous! ‘These are first-type summons. How many years has she used to grow this many summons?’

Ophion first rushed to stop the charging Hawk. As he approached, his voice reached Liu Shu, sounding quite rushed. “Liu Shu! Summon more of us! Now that we are here, you can use us as an anchor point to make my sisters and brothers descend! Since those smaller hawks are Level 40, summon Level 30 Arboreal Winged Serpents! The consumption rate will also be more efficient for you that way.”

Liu Shu was instantly against that idea. She’d rather summon sa-leveled winged serpents, even if it would cause a strain on her essence reservers! She protested aloud. “Only Level 30? So of them might die! I don’t want any of you to die!”

Ophion was entangled with the Black Lightning Hawk King in a brutal aerial battle when Liu Shu’s words reached him. He couldn’t help but feel a surge of warmth. He spoke clearly and solemnly. “Don’t worry.” Then, he used an accelerating skill, sneaking through the Black Lighting Hawk King’s defenses, and he tackled it powerfully. “Fall down!”

BOOM!

The Black Lightning Hawk King could not react to the sudden acceleration burst, and Ophion’s tail smacked him toward the ground, leaving the giant serpent floating in the sky like a true monarch.

Liu Shu was stunned. ‘Ophion is Level 50, and he could still send a Level 70 flying with one strike?’

Flapping his gargantuan wings midair, Ophion spoke with a solemn tone that sounded inviolable. “My race is not weak, Liu Shu. I promise that no one will die.” Seeing the giant hawk recovering and flying toward him again, Ophion spoke quickly before getting entangled in the fight again. “Quickly, the swarm is arriving!”

Liu Shu felt sowhat anxious and slightly hesitant. Then, she heard the Big Sister serpent speaking with her gentle voice. She was not doing anything because she didn’t want to get interrupted. Her spells were powerful but consud a lot as well. Hence, she was waiting for a chance to cast once more. “Liu Shu, this will serve as training for those brats as well. If any of them dies, I promise to scold them fiercely once we return.”

A slight pain poked Liu Shu’s heart, but soon determination filled her. The World Tree’s solemn presence descended, and a gargantuan vortex spread in the sky around the ruby-colored winged serpent. “!”

The vortex suddenly latched into space itself and started twisting it.

Liu Shu shouted with determination and strength.

”BURST THE SKY OPEN!”

BOOM!

The sky was torn asunder with a violent pull from Liu Shu’s will and skill. A black maw appeared, stunning everyone who was rushing over. Then, dozens of Arobreal Winged Serpents poured down from that black void, hissing to the sky majestically.

Ophion’s hiss spread around the loudest when he saw his little brothers and sisters erging. “No one is allowed to die! Now, fight for our chosen World tree! DEATH TO HER ENEMIES!”

HISSS!

A piercing hiss pierced into the sky full of murderous and battle intent. Then, the almost 50 Level 30 Arboreal Winged Serpents rushed in formation toward the black and yellow swarm. There were 30 lee serpents, and 20 ranged ones. There were healers, buffers, and ranged attackers supporting an impenetrable steel wall, a perfect combination.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The sky was instantly illuminated with several colors as the 50 Level 30 Arobreal Winged Serpents clashed with the 1000 Hawks that the Corrupted World Tree summoned.

Liu Shu observed the fighting, her nerves taut with worry over how the 20 to 1 battle developed.

While Liu Shu wanted to summon more of them, each Arboreal Winged Serpent consud too much Aether and Anima Energy. If she summoned more than 50, her reserves would dry up too quickly. Hence, she could only trust the small army of Arobreal Winged Serpents to fight back the 1000 Level 40 Hawks.

To her surprise, once the two sides collided and the serpents were surrounded, they weren’t as overwheld as Liu Shu had imagined. Instead, the fifty serpents started slicing through the Level 40 creatures like a knife through butter. Dead hawks fell from the sky each second, shaking Liu Shu’s heart with awe.
