The tiny Demonic Sword rushed into the lake without any ripples. Moments later, the lake's surface suddenly rippled as the monster floated up with its belly turned upside down.
With the death of the octopus-like monster, the fog above the Lake of Fog dissipated, revealing the clean lake surface and the island and golden fruit tree not far away.
"What a powerful Companion Beast!"
"Holy sh * t, it's fine if the people around Zhou Wen are so strong, but even his Companion Beasts are so strong!"
"I'm begging for the origins of this Companion Beast."
"Can a Companion Beast be this strong?"
Demonic Neonate's first appearance stunned the entire Federation. It had been a long time since they had seen such a powerful Companion Beast appear. It comforted the people who were already doubting the abilities of Companion Beasts.
However, people were still puzzled. Without the golden apple, what could Zhou Wen do even if he arrived in front of the golden fruit tree? Could it be that he had to dig up the golden fruit tree?
Zhou Wen walked towards the golden fruit tree with Demonic Neonate. There weren't any other dangers along the way, so he successfully reached the shore and arrived in front of the golden fruit tree.
Everyone stared at Zhou Wen to see what his plans were. What could he do now that the golden apple was gone?
In the next second, everyone widened their eyes. They saw Zhou Wen take out a phone and take photos of the golden fruit tree. It didn't look like he was challenging a level, but more like a tourist who had arrived at a tourist attraction and was taking photos of it as a souvenir.
The dimensional zones that originally left people feeling perilous suddenly didn't seem that dangerous.
"Is he challenging a level or traveling?" People couldn't help but have such a question arise in their minds.
Zhou Wen took a few photos of the golden fruit tree. In fact, it was just for show. What he really needed was to take a picture of the tiny palm symbol on the golden fruit tree.
As the tiny palm symbol was taken, the phone's screen displayed the words' dungeon loading '. It made Zhou Wen feel much more at ease.
I can indeed download dungeons. Could it be that the origins of the phone are related to the dimensional zones? Zhou Wen thought to himself.
As he thought about this, he didn't stay idle. He summoned another Companion Beast.
It was Empyrean Lord Behemoth that he hadn't used in a long time. It had barely reached the threshold of the Calamity grade, so it was naturally not as powerful as Demonic Neonate.
However, Emperor Behemoths were very suitable for manual labor.
When the crowd saw the majestic Emperor Behemoth appear, they immediately thought of something. They could not help but think, "Is he really going to dig away the Golden Fruit Tree?"
Very soon, their doubts were answered because the Emperor Behemoth really began to dig at the roots of the tree. Its huge and sharp claws grabbed at the roots of the Golden Fruit Tree.
With a clang, Empyrean Lord Behemoth's powerful claws only left a white mark on the tree root. It wasn't even considered damage.
Zhou Wen wasn't surprised. He ordered Imperial Lord Behemoth to dig the soil beside the tree roots. Although he didn't dig deep, he had obvious results. He dug out some soil.
"Damn, he's really going to dig up the Golden Fruit Tree!"
"This is really a ruthless person. Others are just plucking an apple, but he's really good. He doesn't even let go of a tree. What's the difference between this and digging up someone's ancestral grave?"
"Too ruthless … but I like it …"
Everyone discussed as their attention was focused on Imperial Lord Behemoth. They wanted to know if Imperial Lord Behemoth could dig up the Golden Fruit Tree.
No one paid any attention to Zhou Wen, who was playing with his phone.
Zhou Wen held the mysterious phone and kept an eye on the progress of the download dungeon. Getting Imperial Lord Behemoth to dig up the tree was just to divert the attention of others. He didn't believe that digging up the tree would really allow him to clear the dimensional zone.
His phone kept showing the download screen. Zhou Wen didn't know when the download would be completed, so all he could do was pretend to be calm as he watched Imperial Lord Behemoth dig the tree.
He didn't wish for Imperial Lord Behemoth to dig too quickly. If he really dug up the tree, he wouldn't know what to do next. Without using his phone to investigate the situation behind the dimensional zone, Zhou Wen didn't dare casually head back.
Thankfully, the soil beneath the Golden Fruit Tree was terrifyingly hard. The Calamity-grade Imperial Lord Behemoth was known for its strength, so it could only dig out a small amount of soil each time. At this rate, it would probably take half a day to dig out the Golden Fruit Tree along with its roots.
Time ticked by as everyone stared at the screen. However, after watching for two to three hours, it was still the scene of Imperial Lord Behemoth digging the tree. It made many people sleepy.
"I can't take it anymore. I'll sleep for a while. Wake me up when he's done digging."
"From the looks of it, it will take at least a few hours to dig out the tree. I'll sleep for a while too."
Many people went to sleep first. After watching so many humans clearing the level and digging the tree for so long, it would be strange if they weren't sleepy.
Zhou Wen was also anxious. After downloading for so long, it was still the download screen.
Suddenly, Zhou Wen heard a clang that sounded like metal clashing. He was immediately given a fright as he hurriedly looked at Imperial Lord Behemoth who was digging the tree.
With this look, he discovered something amiss.
Imperial Lord Behemoth had already dug half a meter deep into the soil under the tree, revealing a black object that was completely different from the soil.
The sound of metal clashing was produced when Imperial Lord Behemoth's claws touched the black object.
The spectators were also attracted by the loud sound. They also saw the black object and were puzzled as to what it was.
Zhou Wen carefully observed for a while and could only tell that the object resembled metal and stone. Only a small portion of it was revealed, and most of it was still buried in the soil.
Seeing that the object didn't seem to pose any threat, Zhou Wen ordered Imperial Lord Behemoth to continue digging along the black object.
It wasn't that Zhou Wen didn't want to dig up the black object directly, but that the object's hardness was in no way inferior to the Golden Fruit Tree. Imperial Lord Behemoth's claws couldn't leave a mark on it at all. It was impossible to forcefully tear through it.
The black object was bigger than Zhou Wen had imagined. Imperial Lord Behemoth dug along the black object, and the more it dug, the bigger it became. It was as though the soil was filled with a black object that was neither metal nor stone. There was no end to it.
After digging for a few hours, he failed to reach the end. Instead, he dug out the surroundings of the Golden Fruit Tree. Now, he could clearly see that the Golden Fruit Tree was rooted in the black object. It was impossible to dig out the Golden Fruit Tree with its roots unless the black object was shattered.
From the looks of it, it's impossible to dig out the Golden Fruit Tree with its roots. The spectators could also tell that Zhou Wen was in a predicament as they waited for his next move.
