When Richard heard the words of Karu, in his mind flashed the image of the glorious divine power he felt when he manipulated the sandman to pass through the spatial rift supported by the dark spar.

That suffocating feeling was even more incredible than when the kobold god had appeared in the sky above Twilight City.

One couldn’t simply describe it with words. At that moment, it froze its soul.

When Richard suddenly heard that the god’s ancient tree planted the tree in the dark plane, he was surprised.

His gaze was solemn.

“How’s Treebeard’s condition? Did it find anything strange in the dark plane?”

Head Butler Karu could hear the seriousness in his voice. And his tone became even more profound.

“Lord, Treebeard is fine. It closed the spatial rift. But Treebeard is still stationed nearby and has not left.”

Richard raised an eyebrow.

“Where is it? Take me there immediately.”

“Yes, Lord!”

Karu didn’t hesitate. He immediately ordered the soldiers who knew the location of the god’s ancient tree to lead the way.

Richard ordered the resurrected soldiers to disperse and guard the city walls. He then left Twilight City with Renee and Alves.

North, outside the land of quicksand.

On the pitch-black earth, a vast tree man rooted there.

From a distance, the dried branches looked like the arms of a dried-up corpse. The crown of the wasps flew all over the place and made a heart-wrenching buzzing sound.

It made people feel enormous pressure just by looking at it.

In addition to the thick dark clouds in the sky, horror shrouded filled everything there.

Alves flapped its broken dragon wings and approached quickly. Richard sat on its back and sensed nothing wrong with Treebeard. It put to rest his worries.

Alves landed on the ground. Richard flipped down and walked to the base of the god’s ancient tree’s tall trunk.

“Treebeard, what happened here? How did you get to that dark plane?”

The tree trunk revealed a twisted face.

“Lord…”

A low, muffled voice sounded.

“After I killed the void hunter that guarded the dark crystal, I sensed the dark energy I needed on the other side of the spatial rift…”

“So I extended my roots inside.”

“My soul transformed and obtained a new ability–Seed Sow after I devoured tons of energy.”

“At that moment, a soul-crushing aura came from that plane and chopped off my roots.”

“For safety reasons, I pushed away the dark crystal that supported the spatial rift. It disappeared without a trace after I lost its support, and the soul-crushing aura also disappeared.”

“But after that, I suddenly felt the few chopped-off roots start to sprout.”

“And I’m still connected to the seed even though I’m in a different plane.”

Treebeard’s story piqued Richard’s interest.

“A new ability? Seed Sow?”

Richard immediately opened the attribute panel of Treebeard.
