My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

And here, this was the absolute home ground of the Treeman Troops, where they could unleash a power far stronger than when they had raised the All-Woods Realm outside Tianyuan City.

The second task was to mount an offensive.

Specifically, a defensive offensive against the Great Blood Tree Forest to the west.

The Great Blood Tree Forest was too close to Tianyuan City, a mere few dozen kilometers away if marked by the blood-colored trees.

Of course, these areas were the outer limits of the Great Blood Tree Forest, just as the periphery of the Dark Forest was right next door to the Tianyuan Territory back then.

But still, it was too close.

Back in the day, he was just a shrimp and didn't understand the terrors of the Dark Forest, but now he had to take precautions early.

However, delving too deep into the Blood Tree Forest was too dangerous, so what to do?

Fight the forest with the forest.

Rooted powerhouses excelled in home territory combat and possessed the ability to extend their own domain.

Then, let the Tree Demon Granny turn the forests west of Tianyuan City into her home ground.

That was her second task.

The Tree Demon Granny had an Epic Skill called 'Seed of Tree.'

According to her, once she had stepped into the Legendary Realm, the seeds of the 'Seed of Tree' could take root permanently in the earth.

In that case, one tree held two great responsibilities, which seemed reasonable.

Isloa was doing the work of thirteen people all by herself.

Mu Yuan felt the spirit of Isloa was worth learning from.

...

At the same time, deep within the Great Blood Tree Forest.

"Ga~ Ga~"

A black bird with a beak curved like a knife flew a thousand meters high, staring levelly at the towering blood-colored giant tree that pierced the clouds.

Bloody mist surrounded it, and on the tree trunk, numerous blood eyes opened.

This was the true form of the Blood Tree King.

"It is indeed terrifying. If the Blood Tree King hadn't given permission, I would never have been able to come here. Is he really of the Legendary Earth Realm?"

The Black Bird was shocked but kept a calm appearance, its eyes deep.

"Blood Tree King, have you considered the offer? Human forces are growing stronger, and you no longer have the luxury of staying out of this. Work with us, and together we can eliminate humankind. The entire Great Domain will be our hunting ground. I can make the decision to cede one third of the original Fang of the Jackal Wolf domain to your Great Blood Tree Forest."

The Blood Tree King remained silent.

After a long silence, "This king does not care whether I step out of the Blood Tree Forest or not, nor do I care for the meaningless human blood fodder."

But if he truly didn't care and had no intention of talking, he wouldn't have come to this core area of the Blood Tree Forest.

The Black Bird muttered under its breath.

He said nothing, only taking out a heart core shining with magnificent luster from his storage ring.

"This is a Millennium Tree Heart, a treasure left by a fallen Legendarily Realm tree person. Regardless of whether your highness takes action, this Millennium Tree Heart is offered to you."

"However, if your highness agrees to act, the Black Crow Clan and Orochi Clan are also willing to gift you three additional Millennium Tree Hearts after the fact."

The Blood Tree King still remained silent.

Hundreds, maybe thousands, of eyes on the trunk stared intently at the giant Black Bird.

After a moment,

"This king... agrees."

A blood vine descended, gently wrapping around and taking the magnificent Millennium Tree Heart into the Blood Tree King's grasp, merging it into his trunk.

"What would you have this king do?

"Human powerhouses are not easy to deal with, and some have abilities that restrain this king."

"But that is external conflict. Only human strongmen can match your highness. If it's inside the Blood Tree Forest, with the great force of your highness, suppressing human powerhouses should be effortlessly within reach."

"Hmph, naturally."

"In that case..."

The envoy of the Black Crow Clan proposed a great strategic plan.

The Blood Tree Forest expansion strategy.

If the Blood Tree Forest continued to spread, reaching the outskirts of Tianyuan City, what then for the human strongmen?

Should they step into the Great Blood Tree Forest, they would be usurping home ground advantage.

If they dared not enter the Blood Tree Forest, they could use it to constantly harass and wear down humans.

When the time came to truly lay siege, they could neutralize the geographic advantage of the humans with the forest's environment.

Perfect.

The Fang of the Jackal Wolf failed due to underestimating their opponents and a lack of understanding of humans.

And now, they had gradually come to understand clearly, the various facets of human power.

The Fang of the Jackal Wolf had already stumbled through those pitfalls.

They just needed to wait for the right moment to strike.

They would win.

...

Mu Yuan naturally had no way of knowing the situation within the Great Blood Tree Forest.

The entire forest was a place of absolute death.

It was difficult for any creature, strong or otherwise, as well as monster powerhouses, to set foot in it.

The fact that a new Legendary Realm had emerged in the Tianyuan Territory was also little known, with only a few high-ranking members of Tianyuan Territory being privy to the information.

However,

in the past two days, the birth of a new Legendary Realm swept through the circles of beings in the Ten Directions Island Domain in a matter of moments.

There was no concealment.

The newly born legend came from the Natural Garden.

With the promotion of this Legend, the Natural Garden held a promotion ceremony of considerable scale and invited Lord Muyuan, the Battle Armor General, the Giant Legendary King of Frost, and other dignitaries, including the Cat Person, the Fire Lion, the Multi-Armed, and the Featherman forces, which now also had a presence in the outside world and were naturally among the invited.

The Natural Garden's promotion ceremony was a grand affair.

After all, before the birth of this Legendary Realm, the Natural Garden had only Milena, a solitary legend, who had to shoulder everything and sometimes dared not linger in Tianyuan City.

Now, with a second Legendary Realm in the Natural Garden, there was much more leeway in strategic arrangements.

"The Natural Garden has passed the critical period, while I still have to struggle on; when I return, I must make our youngsters in Giant Stone Ridge train even harder, much harder."

The Giant Legendary King of Frost sighed.

Two younger giants, who might have the potential to sprint towards the Legendary Realm in the future, couldn't help but shiver.

People could die from this.

Luckily, no Four-order geniuses from Tianyuan Territory had broken through, otherwise...

Giant Stone Ridge naturally had its own Legendary Seed and had been preparing for the breakthrough into the Legendary Realm. It was just that this Legendary Seed was still adjusting and did not have enough confidence to begin the breakthrough.

"We owe it to the City Lord of Tianyuan for our sufficiency of breakthrough ceremony materials; otherwise, Giant Stone Ridge wouldn't have enough."

"Now, everything is starting to look up."

The King of Frost saw a bright future.

With this development, Giant Stone Ridge had a great chance of giving birth to a second, third, fourth, and even a fifth legend.

But there was a prerequisite to all this.

Peace and smooth sailing.

Could they really develop smoothly? The surrounding Monster Overlords seemed to be plotting something.

The King of Frost was worried.

He opened his mouth but chose not to voice his ominous concerns on this joyous occasion.

...

The promotion ceremony in the Natural Garden was grand, yet didn't last very long.

This Elven force had continued the tradition of ancient ceremonies but developed their own efficient style.

Even now, the Ten Directions Island Domain couldn't be considered peaceful and harmonious.

A celebration? A brief festivity was fine.

Afterwards, right back to business as usual, back to their stations—now was not the time to relax.

It was at this time that Daisy's commercial expedition to the Twilight Plains Territory returned.

When they had set out, their squad had only a single X-Ⅱ type passenger airship.

Upon their return? The airship fleet had expanded to four vessels.

"Dragon Fish II Passenger Airship (Excellence)"

This was a vehicle Mu Yuan exchanged for using Contribution Points on the Taixuan Covenant Platform.

These were large items that could not be transferred through the Secret Realm, necessitating either collection in person or dispatch via courier. Unfortunately, nothing like Divine Bird Express or the Netherworld Express could reach Tianyuan City, situated in the Ten Directions Island Domain.

Picking them up in person was the better option.

The Dragon Fish II Passenger Airship was a Tai Xuan self-developed airship whose performance was comparable to the X-Ⅱ type, to Mu Yuan's satisfaction.

"Four airships, two for commerce, and the remaining two for daily personnel transport," Mu Yuan contemplated.

Daisy then reported on the situation of this commercial trip in detail.

The primary mission of this commercial expedition was to establish trade routes and build connections with various territories and cities.

Thus, they traveled to many places.

They moved southward through various settlements, passing through places like Shiling City, ultimately reaching Pan Shi City.

Despite this, the revenue from the commercial trip was still substantial.

Most importantly, they had opened new channels.

Like for the Dragon Fish airships, if he hadn't gone to fetch them himself, Mu Yuan wouldn't have been able to acquire them.

"We also acquired this treasure," Daisy said. "The blueprint for the Domain Interferer you ordered was out of stock, it'll take about a month or two to procure, but based on your needs, boss, we've purchased this set of treasures—the Boundary Stele."
