Obviously, Yang Chen's party was a bit too cautious. During this time, the first city lord was cultivating in seclusion. Without the second city lord, the first city lord was somewhat alone, but it brought another benefit.
The original resources of the banyan tree Immortal's cave were to be shared by two people. Now that the second city lord was missing, everything had become the possession of the first city lord. Relying on this alone, in the past few decades, the first city lord's cultivation base has improved by a small realm, reaching the peak of the middle Yuanying stage. Therefore, the disappearance of the second city lord was not a bad thing for the first city lord.
The taste of power was far from being comparable to sharing it with others. The feeling of having the whole world in his hands with a wave of his hand, the taste of pointing out the rivers and mountains, was also a medium to make the first city lord more confident. And self-confidence often had a catalyst-like effect on cultivation.
But anything was too much. Once it exceeded that degree, things that were originally beneficial would become harmful. The monstrous power and exclusive resources made the first city lord extremely confident, but it also made him extremely inflated.
Sitting on hundreds of thousands of monster race cultivators, he could almost dominate the monster race. In the narcissism of the first city lord, who was almost like a frog in a well, the first city lord also gave rise to a kind of domineering arrogance, but also a kind of arrogance.
In this world, who else could move his iron bucket of rivers and mountains? With this idea in his mind, the first city lord had become more and more unaware of who he was. In addition to this feeling of enjoyment, there was only cultivation left in his mind.
Since the improvement of the realm, the first city lord has not taken much care of the big and small affairs of the Immortal's cave, and it has been handed over to a younger generation that he trusted. And he himself began to attack the next realm with all his strength.
Retreating to cultivate, naturally, he would not feel the movement outside. It was this that gave Yang Chen and Gui Shanyou a chance. When Gui Shanyou spent three years refining all the underground roots of the banyan tree Immortal's cave, no one in the Immortal's cave noticed it.
During these three years, plus the previous year on the road, Yang Chen did nothing else. Apart from cultivation, he just absorbed the fusion of fire seeds and integrated the Yin-Yang Heaven Burning Fire. He also absorbed more than a dozen kinds of third grade fire seeds. The Yin-Yang Heaven Burning Fire was slightly perfected and its power was slightly improved.
Strike while the iron is hot, of course, the old tree demon also knew this. After controlling all the underground roots, the old tree demon began to attack the branches of the banyan tree cave.
The advantage of the banyan tree was that it had countless aerial roots in addition to the main root. These aerial roots were like thick branches, but they were not tree branches. Old Tree Demon started with these aerial roots.
Because it was not the main branch, the old tree demon's movements did not attract too much attention. Everything in the cave residence was as usual, without the slightest change. How could those people with low cultivation detect the movements of the old tree demon? The only one who might be aware of it was the first city lord who was still in retreat. This was a great opportunity for the old tree demon.
Silently, countless aerial roots began to be controlled by the old tree demon one by one, which also meant that the surroundings of the banyan tree cave had begun to fall into the hands of the old tree demon.
This process took another five years. After all the aerial roots were controlled by the old tree demon, there was only a trunk and leaves left in the banyan tree cave. At this time, the first city lord finally came out of seclusion.
As soon as he came out, the first city lord habitually explored his own territory with his spiritual awareness, just like a monarch patrolling his country and inspecting his people. But as soon as his spiritual awareness came out, he noticed that something was wrong.
Almost half of the control of the banyan tree cave was taken away unknowingly during his retreat, and it did not alarm him at all. This time, the first city lord was shocked.
It was not uncommon for the Monster Race to be robbed of the Immortal's Cave. But after everyone made a big move, those who failed either admitted defeat or were killed. They all had to experience an earth-shattering battle. How could there be such a silent posture?
"Which rat is it, still not showing up!" The first city lord's angry voice instantly reached the ears of all the Monster Race in the Immortal's Cave. Everyone stopped what they were doing. Even many of the Demon Race who were cultivating were shocked by this sound. Countless people spat out a mouthful of blood.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, the first city lord has been well!" Yang Chen's voice suddenly sounded in the ear of the first city lord, like an old friend joking, calm and gentle.
"It's you?" The first city lord began to go crazy. This voice was so familiar. It was the abominable guy who collected all the First Wood True Essence Spiritual Solution and left. Even the life and death of the second city lord must be attributed to this guy. Now he wanted to rob his own Immortal's Cave unknowingly. This could be tolerated, what could not be tolerated?
If it was Yang Chen, it was not surprising that he could control half of the ownership of the Immortal's Cave in silence. Even he and the second city lord could not cope with the First Wood True Essence Spiritual Solution. Yang Chen unexpectedly absorbed all of it. He must be very familiar with this Immortal's Cave. Maybe this Immortal's Cave was passed down by his ancestors.
But at this time, the first city lord would never have the idea of taking the initiative to return the Immortal's Cave to Yang Chen. The only thought in his mind was to kill Yang Chen. Revenge for the second city lord was secondary. The key was to snatch all the First Wood True Essence Spiritual Solution. The first city lord was a knowledgeable person. Even if the wealth of the entire Immortal's Cave was added up, it was not as precious as one percent of the First Wood True Essence Spiritual Solution.
"Get out of here!" The first city lord almost roared, and the aura on his body was released wildly. All the Monster Race in the Immortal's Cave were trembling under the momentum of his Dacheng stage, and there was no extra sound. Some of the low cultivation bases had long been oppressed to the ground, curled up into a ball, and the whole body was shaking like a sieve.
"The first city lord has a big temper." Yang Chen's voice was still in the ear of the first city lord, as clear as a face-to-face conversation "I will wait for you outside the city."
"Return my second brother's life!" With the angry words of the first city lord, the figure of the first city lord had already appeared outside the Immortal's Cave, and then immediately saw the figure of Yang Chen in the distance.
His spiritual awareness instantly locked on Yang Chen, and the first city lord was overjoyed. He did not think about why he did not notice Yang Chen's trace at the beginning and directly rushed up. This time, he wanted Yang Chen to not return.
However, before the first city lord rushed within a hundred feet of Yang Chen, an unusually strong body blocked in front of Yang Chen. Hou Yun had already been impatient and was about to relieve his itch with the first city lord.
