Chapter 735: Act Weak?
Chapter 735: Act Weak?
“Looks like the Elemental Assimilation Spell that Master Agron personally cast on me can't fully counteract this world’s rejection. They’ve probably noticed my presence, though they haven’t figured out much yet,” Feylis remarked, supported on each arm by her apprentice and grand apprentice as she gazed toward the distant north.
Master Agron, a Rank Six grand mage within the Pyro Secret Society, held a status close to that of Feylis.
While his combat skills might not match those of Feylis, Master Agron possessed unique expertise in other areas, such as Elemental Assimilation—a specialty of his.
It allowed Feylis to enter the Verdant Wilderness World with minimal disturbance after more than seven months.
Without it, Feylis’ immense elemental presence might have driven away the four otherworldly Gorilla Gods before she even fully entered the Verdant Wilderness World.
One of Feylis’ primary objectives in arriving at Verdant Wilderness World alone was to prevent these Gorilla Gods from escaping.
If possible, she also aimed to protect the space-time rift between Verdant Wilderness World and Wild Gorilla World as it could facilitate the Magus Civilization Army’s plans to invade the Wild Gorilla World.
As Feylis descended upon Verdant Wilderness World, the sky above transformed dramatically.
Dark clouds gathered over the Emerald Forest, punctuated by flashes of lightning that flickered ominously within.
A storm appeared to be brewing.
To the far north, the four Gorilla Gods and the Verdant Wilderness God noticed the changes.
The guardian, White Spirit, was a graceful, large bird with white feathers.
With thousands of years of life and guardianship, White Spirit possessed wisdom and calmness far surpassing others in Verdant Wilderness World.
Perched atop the trees, it looked out over the southwest and remarked in a melancholic and weary tone, “Another strange, foreign evil god has descended upon our world.”

“I’ve long suspected something amiss with the Emerald Forest. Although the aura of this newly descended foreign evil god isn’t as harsh as those four Gorilla Gods, it exerts an oppressive feeling that leaves me breathless for some reason,” it murmured.
As the only Rank Four creature in this plane, the Verdant Wilderness God remained rooted in its spot in silence.
This Rank Four giant tree possessed strength and a root system far beyond anyone’s imagination, having drawn one-third of the world’s nutrients.
Despite being besieged by four Gorilla Gods from the Wild Gorilla World, including a formidable Rank Five Gorilla God, the Verdant Wilderness God had managed to endure thus far.
This proved that its resilience and combat endurance exceeded its peers of the same rank by a significant margin.
Even the four Gorilla Gods had grudgingly acknowledged the toughness of this tree’s trunk, though their pride prevented them from admitting that its strength surpassed their own.
After all, they regarded it merely as an immovable giant tree. If not for its role as the dominant resistance force in Verdant Wilderness World and its body was a veritable mountain of treasures, the Gorilla Gods might have bypassed it altogether and plundered the plane.
Currently, the ongoing war in Lush Verdant Forest was viewed by the otherworldly Gorilla Gods as a temporary challenge.
They attributed their difficulties to the planar suppression they endured and the planar laws favoring the Verdant Wilderness God.
Nevertheless, the four Gorilla Gods and the Verdant Wilderness God, along with the havoc they wreaked, had inadvertently helped the Magus World deplete a significant portion of Verdant Wilderness World’s resources.
This attrition allowed Feylis to enter the Verdant Wilderness World more easily, despite the need to mask her strong elemental energy using the Elemental Assimilation Spell.
At the same time, The four Gorilla Gods shifted their gaze toward the southwest.
The sudden emergence of a foreign god stirred feelings of annoyance, indignation, and greed among them, but never any trace of doubt.
After all, these exceedingly arrogant gorillas had never encountered any world civilizations stronger than their own in the star domain they had explored.
Any worlds marginally comparable to theirs was dismissed outright, showcasing their ignorance and inflated self-regard.
Even the Magus Civilization approached the vast and unpredictable Astral Realm with a sense of awe and humility, never assuming supremacy.
Yet, these wild gorillas believed they were the center of the Astral Realm, the chosen one among countless planes.
What foolish and ludicrous creatures!
“A thief seeking to plunder the riches of our great Wild Gorilla World?”
“Or perhaps an ignorant, humble wandering god who has stumbled into this world by accident?”
“Regardless of its origins or intentions, I don’t think we should let it leave so easily!”
The four Gorilla Gods discussed among themselves on the outskirts of Lush Verdant Forest.
“The energy fluctuations from over there aren’t very strong. You two, go and investigate. Don’t scare it off.”
The War Gorilla God, the strongest among them, commanded the two Rank Four Gorilla Gods beside it.
Although they were on the outskirts of the Lush Verdant Forest, the Verdant Wilderness God no longer posed any threat to them.
The Wild Gorilla World’s legion of about a million strong had already penetrated the core area of the forest.
These gorillas, though not the brightest, understood that severing the Verdant Wilderness God’s complex root system would make it easier to defeat the Rank Four giant tree.
Like a swarm of ants, millions of its soldiers gnawed away at its roots.
Meanwhile, the native creatures of Verdant Wilderness World, heeding the guardian’s call, clung to the branches of the Verdant Wilderness God’s tree, entangling themselves in combat with the invading forces.
Both sides were locked in a tug-of-war, with the Verdant Wilderness God at the epicenter.
Upon receiving their orders, the two Rank Four Gorilla Gods dashed toward the southwest of the world like two blazing meteors streaking across the sky.
Having just arrived, Feylis noticed the two rapidly approaching meteors high above.
Compared to lower-ranked lifeforms that might take months or even years to traverse similar distances, crossing half this low-level world was merely a moment’s work for these Rank Four creatures.
“Oh, here come two little ones,” Feylis remarked to her apprentice and grand apprentice.
“Hmm... I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to capture them both. It would be unfortunate if one escaped, especially since we can’t let them close that space-time rift in the north. Perhaps I should act weak?” she mused with a smile.
