Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 313 The Bark Book in the Temple

Under the relentless attacks of the ancient treant sages, the figure of Moonlight White Cat grew increasingly dim.

Even the shelter seemed to be crumbling.

Rudolf and his team of lawyers were on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Yang Qianyuan shared the digitized data with Chu Danqing through the Spirit Eye Treasure Chain.

Everyone's sanity level has dropped to 75, and due to excessive stimulation, the maximum sanity level of some people with weak willpower has dropped from 100 to 99.

Chu Danqing was worried that if things continued like this, things might go wrong.

So he secretly gave De Lapur a heads-up.

Delapour expressed his relief, saying that he had already noticed the problem and had arranged for his people to provide support.

When rationality is low, anything can happen.

In particular, they had now reached the location of the roots of the ancient tree spirit sage.

The ancient tree-man sage is not entirely rooted in the ground; at the location of its roots, there is a temple built from marble cut and stacked.

Its pure white appearance reflected the moonlight, making it look absolutely beautiful.

Many of the roots of the ancient tree-man sages hung down in the temple.

Instead of a statue of the Hunting Moon, there was only a leather book in the center of the temple.

It's not human skin, but tree bark.

Upon seeing this book, Chu Danqing understood that this must be the reason why the Moonlight White Cat brought him here.

Then, a hand suddenly reached down from the tree roots.

Following the roots downwards, there was a faceless ghost dressed in white.

This was the spirit of the swamp, and its hand naturally landed on the bark book.

Although the other party had no facial features, Chu Danqing could still discern the mockery in their body language.

However, this also proves that this book on tree bark is very important.

“We’ll draw the Ancient Treant Sage’s attention, and you all hurry to seize the book from the Swamp Spirit,” Delapour said. “That might be the core of the Ancient Treant Sage.”

Chu Danqing certainly knew who "you" meant; it definitely referred to Guo Ming.

Guo Ming did not answer, but simply nodded with a cold expression.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing knew that he had to provide further assistance.

Fortunately, he only actively released three buffs in total.

One is the dragon vein power of the Nine Cauldrons Diagram, the second is the summoning element of the Psionic Elemental Gloves, and the last is the invincibility of the Elf Princess Ring.

Chu Danqing usually uses the first two, but he hasn't used the last one yet. Perhaps he'll have to use it this time.

The power of the dragon vein was combined with the water element, and then he directly activated the Five Elements Elemental Spirit Array.

With the buffs fully applied, Guo Ming held the Su Nu Sword protectively in his arms, with four flying swords circling around him.

Delapour slashed his palm with his scimitar, the blood smeared on his face and wriggled as if alive, eventually spreading into streaks of blood.

At the same time, illusory hairs grew on his skin, and his eyes turned into cat eyes.

All members of the Norris family did the same thing.

However, compared to De Lapur, these members' cat-like traits are not obvious and are only localized.

"Meow!" Delapour opened his mouth and meowed.

As for what it meant, Chu Danqing understood; it basically meant that they were going to attack.

After meowing, all the Norris family members, like nimble cats, leaped onto the massive body of the ancient tree-man sage.

As the Norris family members and the cats moved, Guo Ming also drew his sword and charged out.

The target is the spirit of the swamp.

The swamp spirit let out a sinister laugh, and phosphorescent flames slowly rose as a translucent ghostly hand turned the pages of a bark book.

In an instant, a chilling, biting wind erupted throughout the temple, its howling force causing a torrent of phosphorescent flames to gush forth.

Chu Danqing couldn't help but gasp; this was a massive area-of-effect attack right from the start.

Guo Ming was able to sense that these phosphorescent lights were particularly strange.

It doesn't burn the physical body and soul, but specifically burns the human spirit and self.

Once burned to ashes, even if the soul and body are intact, it is nothing more than an empty shell.

Guo Ming wisely decided not to confront them head-on, and immediately began to pull out a large number of consumables, throwing them out without regard to cost.

The Gale-Phoenix Fire was met with a barrage of consumables, halting its offensive and causing its power to begin to crumble.

Taking advantage of this temporary advantage, the four flying swords formed the Four Symbols Sword Formation, pushing their magical power to the limit.

With a single, all-out attack, it shattered the torrent formed by the raging winds and phosphorescent flames.

Upon seeing this, the Swamp Spirit paused in its actions.

During that meal, Guo Ming had already charged into the temple on his sword.

The sword flashed, the sword energy crisscrossed, and the sword intent was chilling.

The swamp spirit's hand holding the bark book was severed by a sword.

Meanwhile, his white robes were covered in sword marks, and his body was also covered in sword wounds.

Upon seeing this, Guo Ming reached out and grabbed the bark book, then retreated without hesitation.

He knew the Swamp Spirit couldn't die, so his target had always been the Bark Book. "Human Knight," the Swamp Spirit's ethereal voice echoed, "your sword is exceptionally sharp."

"You are powerful."

As soon as the Swamp Spirit finished speaking, it reached out and reached for Guo Ming's heart.

"Your heart will be favored by the Hunting Moon." As the Swamp Spirit spoke, it reached out and shattered the shield on Guo Ming's body.

The figure of the sword spirit of the Plain Maiden Sword appeared unexpectedly.

Its appearance has also changed to resemble a Western-style female ghost, and the sniper rifle in its hand has been replaced with a musket.

With a single shot, the sword energy pierced through the swamp spirit's hand in an instant, simultaneously destroying most of its body.

With the help of this move, Guo Ming managed to escape.

The Swamp Spirit is indeed powerful, about the same as Derapur.

However, according to Guo Ming's estimate, it should still be within the 3rd tier and not reach the 4th tier.

If it were truly Tier 4, Guo Ming wouldn't be able to escape without paying a price.

After obtaining the Bark Book, Guo Ming saw the Swamp Spirit's mutilated body constantly absorbing the Yin Wind and Phosphorescent Fire, continuously repairing itself.

It recovered in the blink of an eye.

The moonlight seemed particularly cold at that moment, and the recovered swamp spirit instantly teleported behind Guo Ming, following the moonlight.

He reached out and shattered the shield that had only recently been created through the array's coordinated defense.

However, the scene of the heart being ripped out through Guo Ming's back did not appear.

Because Guo Ming disappeared, just like that, he vanished from its sight.

Guo Ming's figure appeared beside Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing decisively used his active skill, "Protect," which consumes 50% of his mana.

However, because his perception and agility didn't receive any extra bonuses, he was a step too slow.

Fortunately, Chu Danqing knew his weakness, so she used the protection skill when Guo Ming obtained the Tree Bark Book.

It was a bit slow, but the timing was right.

Guo Ming casually tossed the bark book to Chu Danqing, then a sinister grin spread across his face.

The Guardian skill not only summons people to Chu Danqing's side, but also provides an additional 20% boost to all attributes.

And this effect lasts for 20 minutes, so apart from the high energy consumption, it is very cost-effective.

Because it consumes a percentage of mana, no matter how much mana Chu Danqing has, she cannot increase her attributes through the Guardian active skill.

Only one person can receive the blessing at most.

After Guo Ming's own attributes increased by another 20%, it was now his turn to suppress the Swamp Spirit.

It's a pity that it's not a multiple summation, but only the summation of the base attributes. Otherwise, with so many fixed values ​​plus percentage bonuses, Guo Ming could have shown the ancient treant sage just how sharp his sword was.

For now, let's just stick to targeting the Swamp Spirit.

On the other side, Chu Danqing also acquired the Bark Book, a book of inherited skills.

Without looking at its contents closely, he casually tossed it into his storage space.

"No!!!" The ancient treant sage, realizing that the connection between the bark book and itself had been severed, roared in anger.

The leaves began to turn visibly yellow and fall to the ground.

The branches were also falling off as if withering, and the once huge body had become hunched over.

"You thief!" The ancient treant sage roared, swinging his large branch hand toward Chu Danqing.

With lightning speed, Delapour leaped into the air, his scimitar transforming into a streak of light, instantly severing the large branch-like hand.

Previously, he would never have been able to sever the ties, but now it was extremely easy.

"Meow!" De Lapur meowed loudly.

All the Norris family members and cats on the Ancient Treant Sage started meowing together.

"Go!" Chu Danqing understood what they meant: run away as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this, Guo Ming paused, then turned around, pulled out a golden rope, tied everyone up, and carried them away.

They, along with everyone in the Norris family, escaped with remarkable ease.

At the same time, the ancient tree spirit sage's massive body shattered.

The swamp spirit stopped after chasing them out of the temple and watched them leave.

"Old friend, let them take it away, there shouldn't be any problem, right?" The Swamp Spirit returned to the temple and looked at the tender sprout that had emerged in the center of the temple.

"Perhaps, but whoever took the Book of Burial will certainly not mind adding the watchful eye of the Great Hunting Month." An aged voice emerged from the tender shoot.

"My prophecy cannot reveal much, but this is the only prophecy I have no certainty about since the Great Hunting Moon fell asleep."

"Such great unpredictability may bring us enough surprises," said the ancient treant sage.

The spirit of the swamp chuckled softly: "I hope so, but it's a shame you'll have to grow all over again."

"Soon, the swamp left by the Great Hunting Moon will be there, not too long." As he said this, the ancient treant sage's body had already transformed from a bud into a sapling.

It won't take too long for it to grow back to its original size.

“Without the Book of Burial, my offspring will grow very slowly,” said the ancient treant sage.

"Then let your offspring hold back," the Swamp Spirit said coldly. "This is the Moon Swamp left behind by the Hunting Moon, not a stable they can come and go as they please."
