The scene unfolds within the Endless Forest, a lush expanse dotted with towering ancient trees and home to a variety of mystical beasts. Druids d in animal skins frolic joyously with these creatures, sharing fruits in a disy of harmony.


    Olivia sits in a wooden hut perched atop an ancient tree, donned in a tiger-skin coat. Before her on the table lie the Psychic Position and the Mystic Burner.


    Ethan blinks hard.


    No way...


    Hadn''t the druids just barged in? Weren''t you justmunicating with Stephen, and now you''ve infiltrated the druids?


    Ethan''s Psychic Position glows, sending a warm current into Olivia''s body.


    A smile quickly spreads across Olivia''s handsome face, her head held high as if pleased, thinking, ''The Forebearer must have seen me infiltrate the druids; he must be praising me now.''


    "Forebearer."


    Olivia speaks respectfully, "Child has gathered intelligence from the Joy Beast Branch. The druids have been preparing for war, awaiting chaos in Cloudview County. They are stronger than the Emerald Dynasty, holding their own against the demon ns within the Endless Forest."


    "They have twelve major witch divisions, each with its own sectors and smaller tribes."


    "The ones who havee to my Cloudview County belong to the Skywood witch division,prising three sectors: White, Harris, and rk."


    As she speaks, Olivia''s expression turns grave, "Forebearer, from what your child knows, within the Harris sector, particrly the Joy Beast lineage, there exists a Competent Force Psychic, also known as a priest."


    Information trickles into Ethan''s ears, his expression growing somber. Just three sectors, yet their power could rival the peak times of Cloudview County.


    And yet... Harris seems to be the weakest of the three.


    "Child has obtained their attack ns."


    Olivia''s intelligence capabilities are formidable!


    Ethan sees the nsid out on the table, showing the invasion routes of White, Harris, and rk.


    Starting from the border, they spread like veins.


    They bypass the major sects, entering Cloudview County, targeting ordinary towns for ughter, swiftly and devastatingly, before encircling the major sects of Cloudview County.


    Interestingly, the attack ns do not mark Duke''s Mansion!


    Ethan is more concerned about the strategic map showing the attack directed at ckwood!


    One of the routes...


    Directly targets ckwood!


    Meanwhile, a special event reappears on the screen.


    [Special Event—The Covetous rk Branch!]


    [Chief of the rk Branch, having learned from the disciple of human Stephen, knows that Azure Cloud ckwood and the major sects of Azure Cloud are battling fiercely, likely weakened. The vast ckwood family, rich in resources, is ripe for exploitation. ughtering the renowned blood-stained family will bring great fame to the rk Branch!]


    If Stephen were not already dead, Ethan would have cursed him.


    Olivia helplessly says, "Forebearer, that old rogue Stephen was treacherous, fearing that my ckwood would sit idle during the druid invasion, thus he resorted to this."


    Ethan shrugs indifferently.


    Listening to Olivia continue to report all the intelligence she knows, his eyes sparkle with determination.


    "Let my ckwood descendants—"


    "Return home!"


    "Let rk, and the entire druidmunity, feel what ckwood—"


    "Brings to shock them!"


    As the Psychic Position traces words before Olivia''s eyes.


    Olivia''s lips curl slightly.


    "Yes, Forebearer!"


    ...


    On this day, the citizens of Cloudview County were fleeing in droves. They didn''t know why, but they trusted the legendary Azure Cloud Pavilion''s words and headed towards Duke''s Mansion. They had heard that Duke''s Mansion would provide them with ample food and the greatest protection.


    All the food from the towns and viges was transported by Psychics, who, like oxen, pulled carts loaded with provisions towards Duke''s Mansion.


    A tide of refugees surged from all directions towards Duke''s Mansion.


    All the Psychics of Cloudview County were gathering at the nearest sects because of this day.


    Azure Cloud Pavilion had announced to all practitioners that the Druids from the border wereing. They intended to seize all the resources of Cloudview County''s Psychics and upy their ancestralnds.


    True to Stephen''s expectations, after several incidents, Azure Cloud Pavilion had risen from the ashes like it did 130,000 years ago, once again bing the leader of the entire Cloudview County. They were once again sacrificing everything for Cloudview County, leading it against external threats.


    Simrly, all the Competent Force powers in Cloudview County were releasing their forces, confronting the Druid priests head-on. These ancient beings, who had lived for countless years, were originally nning to besiege ckwood. Now, they soared into the sky, sitting cross-legged, ready to fight to the death if challenged.


    Meanwhile, on the road to Forest Town Gratitude Vige in ckwood, dust was swirling up.


    It was the Druids'' giant rock rk branch!


    Druids, born from the forest, each one merged with nature and survived in the jungle like wild beasts. Each Druid was a hunter of the forest, incredibly robust.


    Especially those with giant rock abilities, their tribe lived in the mountains, dwelling in caves, and even children had to climb rocks.


    They possessed the power to control the mountains.


    Over a hundred thousand of these giant rock ability tribespeople were sprinting across the ground. Alongside them were creatures asrge as boulders, running across thend, their rocky bodies scattered with cheering tribespeople.


    In addition, there were giant snakes, spiders, and stone dogs made of rock!


    Above in the sky, giant stone figures asrge as mountains were slowly flying, following the tracks of their tribespeople below. On these stone figures, one could see remnants of trees, moss, and soil.


    Around them were huge totems forming a wide magical array that enveloped the stone figures, the Druidic magic inscriptions appearing ancient and mysterious.


    Atop the heads of these stone figures stood the priests of the giant rock ability tribes, chiefs of various small tribes, and powerful Druid warriors.


    Apart from the priests who wore robes embroidered with various magical symbols, the chiefs looked like wild men, their bodies covered in tattoos, all exuding a powerful aura.


    They marched forward.


    In front of them, all the towns of Cloudview County were like paper, easily breached by their giant stone figures.


    asionally, they encountered some families or forces that hadn''t fled, stubbornly trying to defend their homnd. However, the magical barriers these stubborn folks activated seemedughable.


    The giant rock ability tribespeople on the ground ran while using their witchcraft.


    Their witchcraft was more direct than the human race''s magical martial arts.


    Sharp giant rocks surged from the ground, easily transformingrge areas into forests of stone spikes.


    They were unstoppable!
