The endless pain occupied the ancient tree’s mind, causing it to stop what it was doing. Because of this, Su Ming had the opportunity to approach its right hind arm.
Su Ming did not hesitate and erupted with a powerful strength. He waved his claws and slashed at the tree arm in front of him.
Bang!
With the first attack, the tree bark flew out, and a deep hole appeared in the center of the tree arm. A few cracks appeared above.
The ancient tree only trembled slightly after this.
Bang!
The second time, a large amount of green liquid erupted. The depth of the hole increased, and the crack continued to extend.
However, even after this, the ancient tree still did not counterattack. It only kept trembling.
Bang!
The third time, the tree arm completely cracked, and more than half of the tree arm fell to the ground. The juice flowed all over the ground as if it was free.
At this moment, the ancient tree’s spirit suddenly left the pain. It raised its four arms in confusion.
However, in front of it were three amputated arms and a tree arm that was about to crack.
The ancient tree suddenly lowered its arms in Su Ming’s direction. Although the other party did not have eyes, Su Ming could still sense its gaze.
At this moment, the ancient tree no longer had its previous arrogance. It only felt confusion and panic.
The ancient tree did not understand why it had lost. How could a wolf with weaker strength injure it to this state?
Su Ming welcomed the other party’s gaze and walked towards the ancient tree step by step.
Without the obstruction of the tree arm and tree roots, the few branches could not affect him at all.
The ancient tree panicked. It had long lost its combat strength. Its two strongest abilities had been completely destroyed by the other party.
In a panic, it used its last tree arm to pull up the surrounding trees and suddenly threw them in Su Ming’s direction.
Under the powerful force, the injuries on its tree arm became even worse. The cracks moved down, but the ancient tree clearly couldn’t care less.
Swoosh!
The sound of wind being torn sounded from ahead. The tree was also moving through the air at a high speed. It was very likely that it would smash into Su Ming before he could react.
However, Su Ming’s perception was not inferior. He quickly jumped to the right in advance and dodged this huge tree. It was as if he could predict where the tree would land.
The tree continued to roll and finally smashed into the forest behind, breaking the encirclement of the forest.
If the wolves chose to leave at this moment, it was completely possible. However, facing the ancient tree that had lost its combat strength, Su Ming would not give up in vain.
Moreover, he had already formed an indelible grudge with the ancient tree. If he did not kill it now, was he supposed to wait until the other party recovered?
The ancient tree continued to throw more trees. Seeing that one of them could not hit Su Ming, it pulled out the second, third, and fourth tree.
Under Su Ming’s intentional guidance, these few trees finally did not smash towards the wolf pack. Instead, they completely broke through the encirclement carefully set up by the ancient tree.
Finally, Su Ming walked in front of the ancient tree.
What welcomed him was a tree trunk that swept over.
The ancient tree controlled its remaining tree arm to pull out the tree and use it as a weapon to attack Su Ming.
This was the only counterattack it could do at the end of its rope.
Su Ming dodged it easily and did not even spend much energy.
Pfft!
After the attack, the cracks on the tree arm became even more obvious. A little green liquid leaked out, and the tree bark above kept falling.
The ancient tree was already at the end of its rope.
It was paying the price for its arrogance and underestimating the other party.
As the last crack sounded, the ancient tree’s right front arm could not take the burden and broke, falling in front of Su Ming and it.
Dust flew up and dissipated.
The ancient tree saw the killing intent in the other party’s eyes, and Su Ming also saw the ancient tree’s last struggle before it died.
It wanted to use its four broken tree arms to grab Su Ming, but they could only wave weakly in front of him.
Su Ming did not care about this at all and directly walked in front of the ancient tree.
At this moment, the ancient tree hoped that it could spread its legs and escape from the monster in front of it.
Su Ming did not have the habit of torturing living beings, even if the other party had a huge grudge with him.
He raised the sharp claws in his hand and broke through the ancient tree’s body again and again. A large number of wood shavings and green liquid fell on his body.
During this time, the ancient tree’s body trembled again and again. It wanted to control the tree to pull the white wolf out of its body.
However, the surrounding trees had long been pulled out or destroyed by it.
In this way, the ancient tree looked at its body being torn apart bit by bit by the other party. Pain kept surging into its heart, but it was unable to do anything.
This pain continued until Su Ming dug out its core, a dark green diamond-shaped object.
Its surface was still emitting a green light.
Su Ming made a prompt decision and dug it out.
The moment it snatched the core of the ancient tree, the other party’s struggle suddenly stopped. Its four tree arms stopped moving and fell.
In particular, after Su Ming walked out of the tree hole, the appearance of the ancient tree quickly dried up, and the color also changed to gray.
It seemed that after losing the core, the source of life that maintained it had also disappeared. No wonder it could use the tree roots as weapons. It turned out that its life form had already mutated.
Soon, the huge ancient tree in front of him turned into a gray statue. When the wind blew, it dissipated in the air.
Su Ming looked at the only spoils of war he had obtained, the other party’s life core.
Even after leaving the ancient tree, this thing still emitted a weak light, as if it could have some special effect. However, Su Ming still did not know what these effects were.
With the spoils of war in his mouth, Su Ming turned around and walked towards the wolf pack.
The wolves surrounded the unconscious Su Yi and protected it silently. Seeing that Su Ming had returned, Father Wolf gave him an affirmative look.
At this moment, a gray figure rushed in front of Su Ming and licked his fur warmly.
Su Ming smiled and gently rubbed Su Hui’s head. He also noticed the injuries on its hind legs.
Actually, when Su Ming was in the battle just now, Su Hui, who was outside, wanted to help, but he was stopped by Father Wolf.
With its rich experience, it could see even more clearly that this battle was no longer something the few of them could participate in.
Fortunately, in the end, Su Ming successfully defeated the ancient tree, allowing the wolves to relax.
Under Su Hui’s worshipful gaze, Su Ming walked to the unconscious Su Yi.
The eldest and second brothers on both sides nodded at Su Ming very respectfully.
After this battle, the hunting team’s attitude towards Su Ming increased another level. Their attitude towards him was almost comparable to their attitude towards the Alpha Father Wolf.
They had personally witnessed Su Ming’s combat strength. He was so unbelievably powerful that even the huge ancient tree was no match for him.
