Meanwhile, Yu Zi Yu was completely unaware of the affairs on the Human side or simply chose not to concern himself.
Rather, his priority was his own evolution and growth of his forces.
<Ding! You killed a Tier-0 Level 4 Mutant Wild Boar, Evolution Points +40>
<Ding! You killed a Tier-0 Level 2 Mutant Rabbit, Evolution Points +20>
…
Amidst a string of notifications, Yu Zi Yu’s Evolution Points visibly surged at a remarkable pace, thanks to the prey caught by figures like Bull Demon, White Tiger, and the others.
After hours of dedicated effort in the middle of the night, Yu Zi Yu used these Evolution Points to further strengthen 20-30 of his branches, transforming them into vibrant, emerald-green extensions that danced along the wind.
“Attack,” Yu Zi Yu commanded in a gentle voice.
*Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…* Right then, dozens of branches shot forth like arrows released from their bows.
However, mere moments later, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze intensified. Much to his surprise, these dozens of branches suddenly grew bigger and bigger.
The next moment, in a spectacle reminiscent of a barrage of bullets, countless branches fiercely erupted with unparalleled force.
*Boom, boom, boom…* Consequently, the ground quaked for an instant. Then, as the branches retracted, the ground, riddled with countless craters like bullet holes, came into Yu Zi Yu’s view.
Yu Zi Yu smiling, finding himself rather content with this level of power.
He had not even consciously channeled his Spiritual Energy to enhance the attack. If he were to channel his Spiritual Energy, Yu Zi Yu believed that the power of this move would be at least several times greater.
Moreover, what was even more crucial was that branching was not that simple. As a terrifying ability of Tier-3 Transcendent, Yu Zi Yu had discovered another aspect of this ability that was equally frightening.
And that was Spiritual Energy.
The branches can further branch out and it depended on his output of Spiritual Energy. In other words, the more Spiritual Energy Yu Zi Yu channeled, the more the branches would divide.
For instance, if a branch split into 10 when supplied with 1,000 units of Spiritual Energy to a single branch, then if he supplied 10,000 units, it would split into a 100.
This demonstrated why this ability was formidable and could only be wielded by Tier-3 Transcendents.
For those monstrous Tier-3 Transcendent, Spiritual Energy was merely a number. Their millions of Spiritual Energy was more than enough to satisfy most of their needs. Not to mention, their astonishing recovery rate of Spiritual Energy.
In essence, if Yu Zi Yu was a genuine Tier-3 Transcendent, he could almost instantaneously transform his branches into a surging wave of branches using his abundant Spiritual Energy, enveloping the entire sky, and engulfing the earth, truly achieving the notion of obscuring the sky and covering the sun.
This was the true horror of a Tier-3 ability.
Thanks to this ability, he could stand alone against a nation. He would be unmatched and unrivaled.
…
In the midst of this revelation, as if sensing something, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze suddenly sharpened. He lifted his gaze.
In the distance, a colossal black figure appeared on the horizon, gradually growing bigger within Yu Zi Yu’s sight.
“You’ve returned!?” Amid a light chuckle, Yu Zi Yu raised his perspective.
After a moment, what met his eyes were dozens of black Chimpanzees, not insignificant in size, trailing behind King Kong.
Their average height was around 2-3 meters. Compared to their pre-mutated state, they had grown at least twice in size.
These Chimpanzees’ strength was roughly around the Tier-0 Level 5-6 Mutant Beasts. Furthermore, there was even one that had reached Tier-0 Level 7.
“Hmm… Looks like I hit the jackpot this time.” He pursed his lips, a hint of satisfaction playing across Yu Zi Yu’s lips.
The Mutant Chimpanzee tribe was anything but weak. As primates and representatives of their kind in terms of strength, the Mutant Chimpanzee were more than capable of tearing apart Tigers and Leopards. Moreover, their inherent intelligence was substantial.
What did this imply?
With a smile, Yu Zi Yu envisioned a scene where a group of Mutant Chimpanzees stood with arms folded, coldly observing disbelieving Humans. Their existence equated to a gathering of exceptionally gifted, enhanced Mutant Humanoids.
Not to mention their Innate Talents. It could be said that, among peers, what could Humans possibly use to contend against them?
Firearms and cannons?
Yu Zi Yu did not believe that after his guidance, this bunch would still fear firearms and cannons.
“While arranging for them to construct an underground city, I’ll educate them with the cruelest military training, just like Humans… This way, in the not too distant future, I can get a ‘Transcendent Squad’ far surpassing Human comprehension,” murmuring, Yu Zi Yu’s mind started to scheme.
Among Humans, there was a saying, ‘Treat poison with poison.’
Applying this saying here seemed quite fitting.
Now, Yu Zi Yu suddenly felt some anticipation for the day when a genuine conflict erupted with Humans.
With this group of Chimpanzee, Yu Zi Yu could strike first.
However, before that, he needed to organize this group of Chimpanzees.
Additionally, he had to ask for Qing Er to devise a set of the cruelest military training methods by learning from the Humans.
Regarding military training, Yu Zi Yu had limited knowledge. Apart from those experienced instructors, there were probably very few individuals knowledgeable in this area.
Furthermore, the physique of Humans had substantially improved with the resurgence of Spiritual Energy. Yu Zi Yu believed that the concept of ‘military training’ might differ from what he understood.
In this context, it was highly necessary for Qing Er to develop a military training method.
As for developing his own method…
The one he would come up with would be unorthodox and largely ineffective. Compared to Human methods, there could be a significant gap, maybe even more than one level.
Human military training methods were genuine treasures of knowledge. Generally speaking, it had been perfected by thousands of experts, if not tens of thousands. Not to mention, it encompassed thousands of years of Human knowledge.
Humans might find these common bits of knowledge trivial, but for the illiterate Chimpanzees, that had recently gained sentience, it was like an enlightenment, like a divine intervention. It might even accelerate their evolutionary progress.
And right at this moment, as he gazed at the approaching Chimpanzee, Yu Zi Yu felt the need to display his might and assert his dominance.
With this thought, he heaved a long, deep breath.
*Ha…*
After a moment, Yu Zi Yu’s pupils constricted as his Spiritual Energy surged without restraint.
The next moment, a deafening boom like a peal of thunder resounded in Chimpanzees’ mind.
Immediately after, in their astonished gaze, the earth suddenly started. A chasm, dozens of meters wide and unfathomably deep, yawned like an abyss, seemingly about to swallow them whole.
*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Growling, each Chimpanzee turned to either side in fear, fleeing from the impending danger.
Yet, just at that moment…
*Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”
Countless fine rootlets shot out from the crevice in the ground at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, binding them in an instant.
*Roar…* Like coming straight from ancient times, a roar reverberated through the sky, leaving the multitude of Chimpanzees, even King Kong, stunned.
The next moment, from the depths of the seemingly bottomless chasm, rose an enormous serpent so huge that it could reach the sky itself. It was so wide that merely raising its body caused the earth to continuously tear asunder.
Surprisingly, even a mountain range was cleaved in two.
Yet, even more terrifying was the fact that the seemingly endless expanse of the ginormous Python could not be discerned with a single glance.
*Gulp* The Chimpanzee gulped in nervousness like Humans, fear was etched on their faces.
Just then, the ginormous Python suddenly rose from the earth with an earth-shaking ‘boom.’
This mere act whipped up a furious gust of wind, and caused the earth beneath it to quake.
These Chimpanzees were ensnared by the rootlets extending from this ginormous python. With their bodies bound, these Chimpanzees were lifted into the sky alongside the colossal Python.
50 meters,
100 meters,
200 meters…
The cold wind at high altitude whistled as the earthly scenery rapidly shrank before their visible eyes.
The faces of the Chimpanzees turned ashen with terror. Even King Kong, despite flipping over and using Python as a foothold, could not help but shudder at this moment.
The overwhelming force was undeniably terrifying.
More importantly, King Kong had already sensed that the ginormous Python that was continuously ascending, was most likely one of the Master’s roots.
Just a mere root had caused such an earth-shattering spectacle.
