Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2336 Collapse
Wenxian Zhenzun shook his head, not responding to Laru Dazun's words, but he did feel a little strange.

The Tree Clan should be less intelligent than the Tapir Clan, so how did they learn formations?

Ratan and Rajan sensed their communication and felt somewhat helpless.

These two Star Tapir Grandmasters knew very well that Raru's words were not just stating a fact, but also a veiled request for help.

The three Star Tapir Grandmasters believed that breaking the great formation of this planet wouldn't be too difficult.

But since there are experts in formations among the cultivators, wouldn't it be better to help break the formation?
This is not only because they want to save trouble, but more importantly, as fighting partners, they should also have this awareness, right?
However, Venerable Wenxian did not respond, and the three Star Tapir Venerables were too embarrassed to say it outright. After all, this was their combat mission.

Moreover, how could they not know where the cultivators' previous dissatisfaction with them came from?
The three great masters do not believe that the tapir tribe's belief that "not taking advantage is a loss" is wrong; it is simply the way the tribe's culture is.

However, they also know very well that cultivators despise this kind of idea.

Moreover, as top-tier beings of the Tapir race, they also have pride; how could they possibly ask for help so casually?
—To expect help without asking is, to put it bluntly, a rather peculiar mindset.

Thus, the three Great Venerables launched a concentrated attack on the great formation while simultaneously resisting the swarming returning Tree Clan.

By this time, Han Li had already withdrawn his cold aura field and was watching this scene from afar.

He and Xiao Qu prepared for a long time, but there was no divine attack from the Zerg.

The three Star Tapir Grandmasters noticed this and became even more resentful: Good heavens, it's finally your turn to stand idly by?

However, these divisions of labor were all agreed upon beforehand, so there was no use in feeling resentful. Did they have to admit that the tapir tribe was weak?
The Star-Burning Venerable understood this, but the constant stream of Tree Clan reinforcements was also causing them some trouble.

The attacks from the Nascent Soul cultivators were almost impossible to break through their defenses, and even the attacks from the black lines, though stronger, were only roughly equivalent to scraping.

However, even with scraping, if the amount is large enough, quantitative change can lead to qualitative change.

Grandmaster Laru couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't we make some more maneuvering? When fighting a large formation like this, there's no need to worry too much about efficiency."

When fighting against alien races, the Star Eater's agility is a major advantage, but now, in its eagerness to break through the great formation, it often has to withstand attacks head-on.

Because that's how defensive formations work; if you can't sustain attacks, all your previous efforts will soon be in vain.

Although the Great Venerable of the Tapir Clan was unfamiliar with formations, they still possessed this basic common sense.

Laru didn't want to give up his previous efforts; he just thought it was appropriate to slow down the pace and there was no need to rush to break through the formation.

Does it matter if we become a laughingstock among cultivators? It's already a consensus between the two sides that our combat strength is inferior to theirs.

However, Grandmaster Ratan saw it differently: "Even if we have to get injured, we must break through the formation as soon as possible and demonstrate the bravery of the Tapir race!"

There are some things it understands, but it's not convenient to say them directly—in the not-too-distant future, a large number of cultivators may visit!
Therefore, now is not the time to be petty. The more valiant our side appears, the more valued we will be by the cultivators.

If you always remain so timid and hesitant, how can you demonstrate your value to cultivators?
Ratan the Great has lived long enough to see many things very clearly—this is the best time to demonstrate his own value!
Although Laru was somewhat reluctant, Ratan was recognized as a wise man among the tapirs and was willing to help his fellow tribesmen, so he had a good reputation.

Rajan directly expressed his agreement, saying, "I agree, since there's a human immortal venerable in charge anyway."

So the three Star Tapir Grandmasters gritted their teeth and decisively launched a barrage of attacks.

From the moment they joined the battlefield, they barely managed any decent teamwork; only now are they showing some semblance of coordination.

"This kind of cooperation..." Wenxian shook his head, thinking to himself that only the Tapir Clan could do it.

If a human cultivator who has reached the Out-of-Body stage were to execute a similar coordinated attack, he would absolutely delete the friend and block them without hesitation!

However, the next moment, his expression changed slightly, "No! This is..."

"We're doomed!" At the same time, Venerable Minning raised an eyebrow. "Wenxian, you idiot!"

However, by this point, no amount of cursing could catch him off guard.

"Oh dear..." Even Han Li Zhenzun, who was further away, changed his expression and slightly hooked his finger.

But the next moment, he shook his head helplessly and then snorted coldly, "This is interesting!"

As the numerous powerful beings reacted simultaneously, the protective array around the planet finally collapsed.

However, at the very moment the great formation shattered, a violent fluctuation suddenly occurred somewhere on the planet!

"I...I'm doomed!" Ratan the Great cried out in despair. At this moment, it finally realized: it had caused a terrible disaster!
They did break the great formation, but at the same time, the key point of the great formation should be that opportunity!
An opportunity that even a Celestial Venerable would covet has actually become the core of this great formation. No wonder this formation is so difficult to break!
In fact, they should have thought before that since the mother tree was already on this planet, it might not be able to sense any opportunities.
Now, with their successful breakthrough, the opportunity has been completely destroyed!

"Forget it, it's already like this, let's kill the mother tree!" Ratan decided not to dwell on it anymore.

A day later, not only was the mother tree killed, but the surrounding forest of trees was also almost completely wiped out.

Throughout this process, the five cultivators stood by and watched.

Wenxian Zhenzun agreed to provide support and did indeed stand relatively close, but he did not make a move from beginning to end.

They didn't even throw out a single array plate!

It's not that the cultivators are being ruthless, but rather that... the Grand Venerables of the Star Eaters did the same thing before!
This time, we are fighting as a team, which is why Wenxian is there to hold the line; otherwise, we wouldn't even have made this promise.

After the battle, all three Star Tapir Grandmasters were slightly injured, but fortunately, they were all minor.

The cultivators piloting flying boats resumed their pursuit of the Tree Clan, while the eight main members of the two clans met once again to discuss matters.

Han Li Zhenzun's expression was not good, and he said, "You ruined our opportunity, how do you plan to settle this?"

Ratan instinctively tried to shift the blame—this was always the way the Tapir tribe operated.

Anyway, it's not hard to find reasons. For example, cultivators have array masters but don't care about it, or the tapir race is unaware of it.

As for the claim that they chose the Tree Clan as their adversaries, there's no need to mention that.

However, Ratan swallowed the words back before he could say them—the cultivators had repeatedly expressed their dislike for this kind of trend!

It could certainly insist on doing so, but the consequences... would be really hard to predict. What if they demand compensation?

It really can't afford to pay the compensation.

After a moment's hesitation, Grand Master Ratan said, "This is something we didn't want to see either..."

"Stop talking nonsense," Minning Zhenzun interrupted it decisively.

After that battle, he had a clear understanding of the Tapir's fighting strength.

They can't be said to be completely incapable of fighting, but they can only barely manage to put up a fight. What's particularly appalling is that their teamwork is a complete mess.

He really didn't need to be polite to this weakling. "Tell me about this opportunity... what should we do?"

Latan remained silent for a while before replying, "Then this time doesn't count. I will mobilize other tribes to try to provide you with information again."

"Strive for it?" Venerable Minning snorted coldly, asking impatiently, "You don't even dare to say a word of affirmation?"

He had already obtained two more opportunities, but in his heart... he was really quite unwilling.

He caught the locust that left his body, and other Grand Venerables could also help in similar situations, but Yuan was just there to make up the numbers.

So it's no wonder he was in a bad mood.

“I really can’t guarantee that,” said Ratan. “It’s easy for the three of us, but it’s hard to say about the other tribes.”

"Some tribes haven't even reached the stage of 'soul separation,' so it's hard to say whether they can obtain information about high-level opportunities."

"And even if there is an opportunity, it will be considered top secret, and it's hard to say whether they will be willing to reveal it."

Opportunities aren't just for cultivators; the tapir race needs them too. Why should they be given away?
Minning Zhenzun spoke expressionlessly, "Even at this critical moment, you still can't bear to part with him?"

Ratan hesitated for a moment, then replied helplessly, "Some tribes... really lack a sense of the big picture!"

Given the greedy nature of the Tapir race, the fact that even the Star Tapir Grandmaster could criticize them for "lacking a sense of the big picture" shows just how serious their selfishness is.

This time it was Min Ning's turn to remain silent; in fact, he wanted to know the reason behind it.

It's just that some Star Tapir tribes are geographically far from the Zerg and Treefolk, so the sense of threat is naturally not that strong.

This situation of "only knowing oneself and not others" is not surprising in the Tapir society.

“Then forget it,” Minning Zhenzun finally said. “This battle can be considered a joint battle with you, and we’ve killed another Nascent Soul cultivator.”

“It wasn’t killed,” True Venerable Hanli said calmly. “It should have gone back to hibernation.”

"Not dead?" Rajan was stunned. "He reported such power, and he's still alive?"

“I’ve heard of this situation before,” said Grandmaster Ratan, somewhat annoyed, as he knew more about the Zerg.

"It can recover after a period of hibernation, but that divine position may also be stolen by other Zerg."

"That's why I said long ago that it's much easier for the Zerg to emerge from their bodies than for the Tapirs."

“Then we have to kill them completely,” Laru said, looking at Hanli Zhenzun. “Do we need to find the statue of the God?”

Han Li Zhenzun completely ignored him, but Min Ning simply said, "Then it's none of our business."

"This battle didn't originally require such a great deal of effort, but you insisted on doing it, and now you've ruined the opportunity!"

Grand Master Ratan couldn't help but speak up in defense, "But we really didn't know beforehand, and you didn't warn us!"

“You always choose to fight the Tree Clan,” Jin Ge sneered.

He bluntly stated, "We've already accepted that we fought for nothing, what more do you want?"
