"Is that all?"
Upon hearing Mu Ya's words, Bai Shan was so enraged that he almost charged into the formation to fight desperately.
Mu Ya's casual attitude ignited Bai Shan's fury, but he ultimately retained his sanity.
He knew that if he interrupted the spiritual energy flow to the formation, it would likely cause the formation to collapse and allow Mu Ya to escape.
Mu Ya's strength had reached the Saint tier, which was beyond their capabilities to resist.
The fact that they could trap Mu Ya was due to a pre-set trap, and they had succeeded by sheer luck.
If Mu Ya were to break free, she would likely unleash an instant burst of power and flatten the Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain.
Mu Ya, however, felt nothing amiss and calmly stated, "I understand that All-Races Conference. Your clan's failure to ascend to true sentient beings was not due to Emperor Mu's deliberate refusal, but a measure to protect your clan!"
"After the God War, the number of deities in your clan was too small. If you had been promoted, the world's laws would have caused immense casualties!"
Although Mu Ya had been confined to the Endless Abyss, her inheritance from the Natural Ancestor Tree granted her ancient ancestral memories. Thus, she knew about the events of the All-Races Conference held shortly after the God War.
She clearly understood that the Natural Wood People tribe had not abandoned or betrayed the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe; it was truly because the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe lacked high-tier combatants.
Their overall strength was too weak to withstand the restrictions of the world's laws.
Just like establishing kingdoms and empires, ascending to true sentient beings required recognition from the world's laws.
If recognized, the world's laws would bestow immense laws and divine power upon the promoted race.
This also came with restrictions from the world's rules.
If a race's high-tier strength was too weak, with few divine-tier powerhouses, they could not bear the restrictions and gifts from the world's laws, leading to heavy casualties.
There was even a significant possibility of them becoming an endangered race.
The emperor of the Natural Wood People Empire in that era had rejected the Dragon clan's proposal to protect the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe.
In hindsight, it was clear that the Dragon clan had been rotten to the core.
Knowing that the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe lacked the foundation and did not meet the conditions for ascending to true sentient beings, yet proposing such a move was clearly intended to sow discord between the Heavenly Fox Death Servants and the Natural Wood People.
And now, the Dragon clan had succeeded…
Even after thousands of years, the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe still harbored hatred and animosity towards the Natural Wood People.
However, no matter what Mu Ya said now, Bai Shan would naturally not believe her.
After all, this matter had been accumulating in the hearts of the Heavenly Fox Death Servants for so long that even if they hadn't held such deep resentment initially, it had now festered.
As expected, Bai Shan roared in the next moment, "I will not believe your words. I only know that you Natural Wood People betrayed us. Our two races have long ceased to be friends!"
Hearing this, Mu Ya shook her head helplessly and said no more.
Hatred had long been etched into the souls of these Heavenly Fox Death Servants. Her words were futile.
Since she had clarified the cause and effect of the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe colluding with the Dragon clan, she no longer wished to dwell on the issue of betrayal. It was a matter for the highest echelons of the two races, and had nothing to do with her.
What she needed to do now was to find a way to escape this formation, crush those damned "lizard" races, and then subdue the Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe.
Mu Ya then stated expressionlessly, "Bai Shan, if you voluntarily dismantle the formation, I can pretend this never happened. Otherwise…"
"Dream on! That's impossible!"
Before Mu Ya could finish speaking, Bai Shan angrily refused, "Mu Ya, I know your temper too well! If I release you now, my entire Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain might be in danger!"
Hearing Bai Shan's words, a sweet smile appeared on Mu Ya's face, and she said softly, "Don't worry! Since following Lord Commander, my temper has improved greatly!"
Bai Shan, being an old fox, naturally did not believe Mu Ya's sweet-talk and resolutely shook his head.
In any case, this formation would not be dismantled until the Dragon clan dealt with that territorial force.
"Fine! Alas…"
Mu Ya suddenly sighed, a look of dejection on her face.
A moment later, she said to Bai Shan, "Then I can only wait for Lord Commander to rescue me. However, Bai Shan, you mustn't blame us for not leaving your clan any way out when that time comes!"
At these words, Bai Shan trembled slightly, looking at Mu Ya with a hint of fear.
He sensed a profound disdain and killing intent in Mu Ya's tone.
"Bai Shan, what are you afraid of? She's just bluffing!"
Beside him, a silvery-white divine dragon opened its mouth and spoke in a clear, sweet voice, "With our Dragon clan's protection, what can Mu Ya do to your Heavenly Fox Death Servants tribe?"
This was a silver dragon, and a rather good-looking female silver dragon at that.
Furthermore, her strength had already reached the Monarch tier.
Bai Shan glanced sideways at the female silver dragon and said, "Your Highness the Silver Dragon Princess, are you sure the Dragon clan can deal with that territorial force? That is the most powerful otherworldly territorial force in the Endless Abyss region!"
The silver dragon let out a dismissive scoff and said, "Don't worry! In front of our Dragon clan, no force dares to refuse! If there is one, we'll send them a Dragon clan's Divine Dragon Legion package!"
"Without Mu Ya, our Dragon clan's divine dragon army can easily flatten that small immortal-demon city! We can also destroy the Natural Ancestor Tree's main body…"
As she spoke, the silver dragon cast her gaze towards Mu Ya and continued, "I don't know how Auntie Mu Ya managed to separate from her main body, but you are the spirit of the Natural Ancestor Tree. I assume that if your main body is destroyed, even if you don't die, your strength will be greatly diminished, or even severely injured? Am I right, Auntie~~"
The silver dragon deliberately drew out the last word, her gaze filled with provocation.
Upon hearing the silver dragon's address, Mu Ya's eyes narrowed, and a cold glint flashed in their depths.
Although she had lived for over a thousand years and was the mother of thousands of Natural Wood People,
her age was equivalent to a young woman of sixteen or seventeen in human terms.
Yet, she was being called "Auntie" by a female lizard!
This was utterly unbearable! She could tolerate it, but as an elder sister, she absolutely could not!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed, and the entire formation trembled violently.
Upon closer inspection, it was Mu Ya, in her rage, punching the formation's barrier, causing the formation's light to flow incessantly and the hexagram to shake unstably.
The four foxes and two dragons were startled and quickly increased the spiritual energy they were channeling.
Once the formation stabilized, the silver dragon resumed her venomous tongue.
"Dear Auntie Mu, it seems I was right!"
The female silver dragon squinted her golden vertical pupils and said with a smile, "Destroying your main body will greatly reduce your strength. Then dealing with Auntie won't be as difficult as it is now!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!!"
Two more heavy blows landed, causing the entire formation platform to shake wildly, and the light on the formation's hexagram flickered erratically.
The expressions of the other divine dragons and Holy Mountain silver foxes maintaining the formation twisted in fear.
They had not expected Mu Ya's strength to be so terrifying!
Although the formation had restrained Mu Ya's spiritual power and law power, it could not restrain her pure physical strength.
The two heavy blows had nearly shattered the formation.
This was truly too violent!
From this, one could foresee what cruel and terrifying events would unfold once Mu Ya broke free.
