Zong Shen turned around and walked towards the Lord's Courtyard to take a look at the already grown Ancient Guardian.

This Tree Spirit was the first Seed of the Ancient Guardian Zong Shen discovered while exploring the dungeon.

It had finally grown by the fourth night.

From hundreds of meters away, Zong Shen could see a lush tree over a dozen meters high by the Lord's Courtyard.

The tree's crown swayed with the wind, and the moonlight in the sky cast a silver-white glow.

The entire tree also began to emit a silver-white radiance.

This radiance was merely adhered to the surface of the tree.

It was like a layer of silver-white halo.

Seemingly resonating with the moon in the sky.

As Zong Shen approached the tree, Luna and Aisha were already there.

They arrived earlier than Zong Shen, obviously also waiting for the moment the Tree Spirit would fully be born.

"Master, the Tree Spirit is absorbing the moonlight and is about to be fully born."

Luna softly explained to Zong Shen.

Zong Shen nodded, not saying much, just observing the transforming tree with a curious eye.

Soon, the halo on the tree began to converge.

It all gathered into the tree itself.

On the thick trunk, the bark began to crack, the tree started to transform, and finally, a face emerged.

A branch was its nose, the bark its brows and eyes.

The transformed tree trunk formed its mouth.

The canopy was its head and hair.

"Great Lord, thank you for your benevolent planting."

"I will dedicate my life to loyally guarding your territory."

It spoke, the voice somewhat muffled, like speaking through a large loudspeaker.

With its first words, it pledged loyalty to Zong Shen.

Zong Shen nodded repeatedly, feeling uplifted.

This Tree Spirit's awareness is pretty good!

"You will share in our supreme glory!"

Zong Shen gave a slight nod and gently touched the Ancient Guardian's tree trunk.

The texture of the bark was like thick, keratinous scales, very tenacious, with impressive defense!

Then, its detailed attributes began to appear before his eyes.

[Ancient Guardian: Dixon]

[Race: Tree Spirit]

[Throwing Damage: 166~169]

[Range: 20 meters ～ 1500 meters]

[Interval: 5 seconds]

[Blunt Damage: 127~130]

[Armor Value: 60]

[Durability Value: 3000]

[Skills: Stand (allows the rooted Ancient Guardian to uproot and move slowly, increasing armor by 20 points to heavy armor, attack changes to melee blunt damage)

Root (allows the standing Ancient Guardian to root into the soil, changing attack to ranged throwing; rocky, swampy, lake, and ocean scenes are non-soil and cannot root)

Tree Eating (Tree Spirit devours a tree, regaining 100~800 points of durability in 30 seconds based on the tree's size)

Moonlight (Being bathed in moonlight slowly heals the Tree Spirit's wounds, providing 3 points of durability recovery per second)]

(In the prime of the Elf Race, even those greedy handsome guys dared not offend territories protected by numerous Ancient Guardians.)

The attributes of the Ancient Guardian are extremely powerful, comparable to a high-level Purple Commander Level Boss.

Even stronger than a Level 30 Spider Web Monster Queen.

And more flexible than defense buildings.

Four Ancient Guardians, perfectly guarding four directions, with a range of 20 meters to 1500 meters, far surpassing Tier 1 and Tier 2 Elemental Arrow Towers.

High durability and armor value, along with the Tree Eating and Moonlight skills, make the Ancient Guardian hard to destroy, capable of handling high-intensity siege warfare.

"Dixon, stand up, let me take a look."

Zong Shen was quite curious about the standing state of the Ancient Guardian.

Tree Spirit Dixon received the order, and its rooted tendrils began to withdraw from the ground.

The ground within ten meters began to rise.

The range wasn't small, to be sure.

The tendrils pulled from the ground gathered, forming two parts resembling large feet.

They began to slowly move forward.

Leaving a large pit in its original place.

Its moving speed wasn't fast, but its size was enormous, ensuring a decent moving distance, comparable to an ordinary farmer's steady pace.

Short-distance support and repositioning weren't an issue, but long-distance travel would be problematic.

Furthermore, it couldn't cross rugged terrain.

Tree Spirit Dixon walked for dozens of meters, leaving a crushing mark on the ground.

It stopped moving, slowly turning to look at Zong Shen.

"Not bad, Dixon, you can temporarily root here."

"The burrow monsters to the west are denser anyway."

Zong Shen nodded, signaling for it to root in this position.

Dixon heard the command, and its tendrils began to sway, breaking the ground, and re-inserting its roots.

It returned to the form of a big tree once again.

Then, from the distance, the top of an Elemental Arrow Tower at the corner of the city wall lit up, shooting an arrow towards the west.

The Ancient Guardian Dixon was also alerted.

Beside it, two thick tree trunks stretched out, with a tire-sized green fruit rapidly forming atop its head, smooth, looking quite weighty.

Those two branches, like arms, grabbed the green fruit and hurled it forcefully.

Seconds later, another fruit formed and was thrown again.

After two hits, the monsters outside seemed to be eliminated.

Both the Arrow Tower and Tree Spirit Dixon stopped their attacks.

At this moment, a clamor came from the west.

The first wave of farmers and their escort team finally returned to the territory.

The recent attack was likely their cover.

Zong Shen was very pleased with the Ancient Guardian.

Truly a rare level Tree Spirit, once the other three Ancient Guardians fully grow, the territory's defensive capabilities will surely ascend to another level!

"You may rest now."

"Once the other two groups of farmers return to the territory, I'll organize a hunting party."

Zong Shen instructed Luna, Aisha, and the returning soldiers.

Everyone left, following the orders.

Luna also nodded and rode the Black Panther, bathing in the moonlight.

The newly arrived farmers were handed to San Pang for settlement.

He opened the [Cave Points], and upon seeing it, he was stunned.

[Current Points: 1788]

"In just six or seven hours, there's already so many points!"

Zong Shen was a bit surprised, since [Points Exchange] hadn't been activated, no one knew the exchange rate of points, or their exact value.

But in just six or seven hours, they managed to gather nearly two thousand points.

This meant they had defeated at least a thousand ordinary monsters and a hundred or two hundred elite monsters.

After more than half a day, he had risen to over halfway through Level 17 in Experience Value.

No matter what, slaying more monsters and accumulating more points is always the right move!
