34 Beginning

"You all should stay away from Feng, as for his subordinates they are just average, you can easily deal with them"

This discussion was between five mysterious looking youngsters who were within the age range of Ethan and his peers, they had suddenly appeared and no one among the crowd knew who they were, but none of them were concerned since it was a forest and anybody could be found here.

They were all strapped in fine garments with different colours. The golden robed callant who had previously spoken suddenly chortled " But Feng isn't the only one you should be wary of, the silver haired lad is someone you all should know?!"

"Yes first brother we know him, isn't he the lad from that beggary clan, tell us First brother what's special about him?!" said a green robed callant with no hint of chumminess in his tone.

" Yes, Second brother is speaking well, tell us?!" said a blue robed boyo, the fourth brother.

"OK, you all know that he has three talents!" said the first brother.

" We know first brother, that is the only reason why our information team bothered to take account of him!" said the second brother who seemed to be irked at the mention of Ethan's name.

" 'sighs', his cultivation level!" said the first brother shaking his head, who would have imagined such a situation.

It was then that the four brothers turned their gaze towards Ethan this time with a serious expression on their faces, in the next moment, gasps of shock leaked from their mouths, they didn't dare believe what they saw.

Middle stage series warrior!

They all gulped in a mouthful of cold air, it was now clear why their first brother had taking interest in Ethan!

"Didn't he just start cultivating three weeks ago?!" blurted the second brother.

"Indeed!" the First brother said with a somewhat bitter face, he was also an elemental talent wielder but he had spent three straight months before he reached the middle stage of the series realm.

"Beware of that lad beside Ethan who has green misty eyes, he his a late stage series warrior!"

Ethan had felt the five newcomers continually stare at him though it had been done secretly, but with his heightened senses it couldn't escape him, but he wasn't flustered, everybody was doing the same thing trying to gauge their enemy as a mad slaughter would soon begin.

..........

In the seeming violent and chaotic Sedron forest, the area around the red tree was entirely silent and if one listened closely they would almost hear the various heartbeats of both beast and humans which seemed to flow in a sync. The crystals on the branches was currently breaking bit by bit revealing slowly what had attracted young warriors and beasts.

They were so anxious , that they were so cautious not to breath too hard so as not to cause any harm. The crystal on the branches had already reached half its original size and was continuing to reduce, it was at this moment that everything seemed to be going smoothly, that the crystals on the branches suddenly distorted a bit and in a flash the breaking process halted.

Everyone held their breaths and the previous expectant light in their eyes began to dim, they were cultivators and so they could feel that the ring power in the air had suddenly gone dry, and that was why the process was hampered, had they just wasted their time to come here?! , would this be the end?!

At this moment of confusion, a panther-type level three Sedron beast suddenly ripped the heads of two level two Sedron beast apart and this caused a slight ripple in the air, ring power, though the amount in the air now was negligible they weren't worried as it would no longer be a problem.

"Roaaaaaar" "Howwwllll"

Several cries filled the air and countless heads of weaker Sedron beasts were reaped apart, the inexperienced ones among the humans shivered at the sight of such cruelness, it was entirely terrifying!

"Wu....." Ethan wiped off the cold sweat that appeared on his forehead and shook his head, he had not expected things to go this way. " This beasts seem capable of anything when the branches of the red is involved. l have to be careful!".

After few breaths the slaughter stopped and the tree began to absorb the dense ring power that had filled the air, all but the sacrifice of dozens of Sedron beasts!

.......

Greed danced in the eyes of both beast and humans at the sight of the red bright branch the size of a fist, this was what they are here for, nothing but the red branches!

Some beasts were not able to endure anymore and without any delay began to climb the now two hundred meters tall tree which had grown in size after birthing its precious branches. The ones with the upper hand in climbing the tree was for sure the reptilian species and the cat family.

"Screeeeecch!"

It was at this moment that a shadow suddenly covered the skies and when they stared at the sight of the problem to their astonishment, was several birds and flying beast dashing towards the branches of the tree, they seemed to be the one with a higher chance of breaking more branches with their power of flight, but greed and disunity made it entirely impossible has as one bird got close to a branch it would be attacked by another.

Humans were sensible so they didn't at first charge towards the tree, but sometimes shrewdness would disappear in situations as this one, experts that couldn't wait anymore sped towards the sea of beasts.

Just at this moment they all suddenly felt the earth tremble and the sound of something heavy continuously slamming the ground, and from the vibration it emitted it was moving towards their direction, instantly they all gave way and waited patiently to see what this seeming enormous being was.

Within few breaths the creature had appeared in their sight, the creature was as huge as car and had furry hind limbs with a huge shell like that of a tortoise on its back.

Shelled Gorilla!

Seated on the back of the beast was Oscar and Jessica who held to the whip which was placed in front of the Shelled Gorilla's eyes.

Every human was entirely stupefied, a level four beast was a legendary existence and now two lads were using it for a mount, but upon seeing the butterfly and the dazed expression on the Shelled gorilla's face, they were able to connect the dot, it was just like a farmer placing wheat in front a donkey to make it move faster.
