Treant Mountain Valley, Desperate Escape!

Before them, giant footprints over a meter long were scattered across the ground, and judging by their shape, with five distinct toes, they were remarkably similar to human footprints!

'Could these be the footprints of the legendary ancient Giant Race? But how could Zhao Lin'er be living in an area inhabited by the Giant Race?'

Xiao Chen crouched down, examining the massive footprints on the ground, utterly perplexed.

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Bai He couldn't help but think of the movie he had once watched on Earth – King Kong.

Alright! He admitted, his thoughts had gone astray!

'Ahem, Master! How about we go in and take a look first? These might not necessarily be the footprints of the Giant Race. After all, there should be quite a few humanoid races of this size!'

Seeing Xiao Chen lost in thought, Bai He couldn't help but cough a few times, interrupting him.

'Mm, then let's go in and take a look, but be careful!'

Xiao Chen snapped out of his thoughts, stood up from the ground, and said in a deep voice.

The group cautiously ventured into the Mountain Valley, seeking to uncover its secrets.

Upon entering the Mountain Valley, they were surrounded by towering, lush ancient trees, a verdant expanse. The entrance to the Mountain Valley wasn't particularly wide, only about a dozen meters across, but the cliffs on either side were extremely steep, with ancient trees growing on them.

Stepping into the Mountain Valley, a sense of openness greeted them.

Looking inward from the vicinity of the entrance, a scene of peace and tranquility unfolded before them.

In the breeze, the melodious chirping of birds echoed, and on the ground, clusters of grass were adorned with vibrant and colorful flowers, their subtle fragrance wafting through the air. A clear stream, like a jade ribbon, gently meandered through the grass.

Despite the apparent peace and tranquility of everything before him, Bai He still felt a faint sense of unease in his heart.

Although he didn't remember the details of the Dragon Island plot very clearly, he knew that on Dragon Island, Xiao Chen rarely had good luck, except when stealing Dragon Eggs.

"Bang!"

A sudden sound of a boulder falling nearby startled them. With no time to react, the two immediately took off running, quickly leading the three Skeletons towards the entrance of the Mountain Valley.

Just as the two of them ran out of the Mountain Valley entrance, the rumbling sound inside the Mountain Valley grew louder. Bai He looked back.

He saw that the towering ancient trees on the Mountain Valley walls were undergoing incredible transformations!

Their massive branches swayed continuously, and the lush green leaves rustled. The vigorous roots, like coiling dragons, quickly pulled out of the soil, and then the entire ancient tree began to emit a brilliant green light.

Under the green light, the entire tree underwent a series of bizarre changes. The branches rapidly contracted, and the roots quickly deformed. In the incredibly dazzling green light, the towering ancient trees shrank and transformed into green giants.

Amidst the rumbling sounds, they quickly descended to the Mountain Valley entrance and stood in a row. Each of the dozens of meters tall green giants was surrounded by a faint green glow, giving off an incredibly powerful sense of oppression.

'Treants?! Right, this should be Treant Valley!'

Looking at the dozens of meters tall green giants behind him, Bai He suddenly remembered.

But even remembering didn't help much. In Bai He's vision, two green Treants broke out of the formation and began striding towards them.

At the same time, on a cliff above the Mountain Valley, a graceful figure quietly appeared, none other than Zhao Lin'er! And beside her stood a Treant.

"We must not let them escape!"

Zhao Lin'er, dressed in white, shouted from the cliff.

The two dozens of meters tall green giants emitted rumbling sounds and began to run. Their verdant green giant feet stomped on the ground, causing the earth to shake violently.

As the Treant rushed out of the Mountain Valley, the Royal Heavenly Maiden Zhao Lin'er on the cliff wall had already flown to the shoulder of the Treant beside her. That Treant agilely leaped down the cliff wall and began to chase after Bai He and Xiao Chen quickly, together with the other two giants.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A series of loud noises came from behind, and the three behemoths were chasing behind, making Bai He feel immense pressure. The three Skeletons beside him had disappeared at some point, leaving only Bai He and Xiao Chen fleeing for their lives.

The primeval forest was very dense, and the trees in it were also very tall. Although the three cyan Treants behind were striding across, they were still constantly blocked by the mountains and forests, making it difficult to catch up with Bai He and Xiao Chen for a while.

Zhao Lin'er stood on the shoulder of a Treant, her eyes gleaming with divine light. She had been waiting for Xiao Chen here for a long time. She knew that Xiao Chen would seek this place out, and today was finally the time for her to counterattack.

She was very fortunate to have gained the favor of the Little Pegasus, and it was precisely because of the Little Pegasus that she was able to have a good relationship with the Treants of Treant Valley, allowing her to gain the friendship of the Treants.

Although there were not many Treants in Treant Valley, each Treant was incredibly powerful, having evolved from ancient trees of nearly ten thousand years. They were spiritual beings nurtured by nature, understood the power of nature, and even ferocious beasts did not dare to approach Treant Valley.

Apart from the oldest Treant, the other Treants seemed to have only recently developed their intelligence, and their minds were not very bright, like children. Therefore, with the help of the Little Pegasus, Zhao Lin'er easily gained their support.

"Xiao Chen, you wouldn't have thought that I would be the ultimate winner today!"

Zhao Lin'er chuckled, her voice as crisp as a silver bell, but it contained a hint of killing intent.

"Hmph! It's not too late to laugh after you catch me. Perhaps one day, you, the high and mighty Royal Heavenly Maiden, might become my female slave!"

Without regard for Bai He beside him, Xiao Chen replied loudly with a blank expression.

Zhao Lin'er's expression was calm, and she was not angered. Instead, she calmly directed the three Treants to encircle Bai He and Xiao Chen.

"Whirr!"

Only the sound of trees shaking could be heard. The three Treants were running quickly through the mountains and forests. Their bodies were flowing with a faint green light. After coming into contact with the green light, the surrounding trees began to separate automatically. That was the natural power they were born with, which could effectively help them push away the branches of giant trees.

As the Treants ran, the mountains and forests were shaking slightly, startling wild beasts to flee in all directions. Even a few ferocious beasts that had rushed out because they sensed that their territory had been invaded could not help but stop at the same time after seeing the three Treants that were tens of meters tall in front of them.

The booming sound made by the Treants alarmed the cultivators in this area. After hearing the sound, many people immediately flew to the top of the giant trees and began to gaze remotely in this direction.

After seeing the three huge Treants with cyan bodies from afar, all of those cultivators revealed surprised expressions. Especially when they saw Bai He and Xiao Chen being chased, some cultivators had seen the great battle between Bai He and Keao and Xiao Chen and Yarold, so they couldn't help but pay more attention.

At the same time, Zhao Lin'er was peerless and stood on the shoulder of a cyan Treant that was tens of meters tall, making it impossible not to attract attention.

For a time, all the cultivators in the nearby area chased after them, wanting to see the subsequent development of the situation.
