“Trying to escape? No way!” Bronson shouted fiercely, chasing after the fleeing Eleanor Mason.
Seeing Eleanor Mason run away, the other Earth Ninjas dared not linger and used their best skills to escape.
Leo wouldn’t let these Orientia Ninjas get away so easily. Wielding the Divine Dragon Sword, he pursued one of the Earth Ninjas.
Channing, Maximillian, and Natalee also chased after the fleeing Earth Ninjas with relentless determination.
Leo’s speed far surpassed that of the Earth Ninjas. With the gravity suppression of Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak, he swiftly took down one Earth Ninja after another.
Theodore Ratliff, holding a large axe, used all his strength to flee. His heart was filled with fear; originally teaming up with Samson to fight Atrarian, now not only had Atrarian survived, but his own family’s Heaven Ninja had fallen.
Moreover, most of his family’s Earth Ninjas had been slain. If he didn’t run faster, he would be next.
Theodore Ratliff quickly reached the valley’s entrance. Just as he thought he could escape, a blue figure appeared before him.
Seeing this blue figure, Theodore Ratliff’s eyes filled with fear. “Miss, I was wrong earlier. Please show mercy and spare me. I promise never to set foot in Atraria again,” he pleaded.
After speaking, Theodore Ratliff tried to bypass the blue-clad girl to continue his escape. The blue-clad girl flashed and blocked his path again.
“Ridiculous. Do you think begging for mercy now will make me spare you?” Her voice was icy.
Theodore Ratliff’s face twisted in anger. His speed suddenly increased as he leaped towards her, swinging his axe down violently.
The blue-clad girl smirked coldly. Her right hand formed a Hand Seal, and three blue droplets appeared before her. With a point of her finger, the droplets shot towards Theodore Ratliff’s head like bullets.
Theodore Ratliff tried to dodge, but his axe swing had committed him to the attack, and the droplets were too fast to evade. Just as the axe was about to hit her, the droplets pierced his forehead.
The axe fell heavily to the ground as Theodore Ratliff’s body rolled away lifelessly.
In other directions, Leo, Channing, Maximillian, and others also finished off the fleeing Earth Ninjas.
Thus, except for Eleanor Mason who escaped, all members of the Tanner and Mason families perished in this Enchanted Realm valley.
This battle would severely weaken the Tanner and Mason families, marking the beginning of their decline.
On Atraria’s side, over twenty people entered the Enchanted Realm. After battles with Iron-Arm Ape and Orientia Ninjas, only eight survived.
The battle was brutal; often it was either you or your opponent who would die.
In the valley, Fire Rose looked at her fallen comrades with red-rimmed eyes. Though they had won, it came at a great cost.
Leo used healing talismans and Major Vitality Pills to treat the wounded while Violet assisted him diligently.
Ten minutes later, Bronson returned from chasing Eleanor Mason.
The blue-clad girl asked Bronson, “Senior Brother, how did it go?”
Bronson shook his head regretfully. “She got away by a hair.”
Eleanor Mason’s escape skills were formidable, aided by the dense forest of the Enchanted Realm.
The blue-clad girl asked again, “Senior Brother, where did Master go?”
“Master went to the center of the Enchanted Realm,” Bronson began but paused as he glanced at Leo and others. He continued, “There’s an Everlife Tree there that’s at least five thousand years old.”
“Everlife Tree!?” Leo’s eyebrows raised in surprise.
Channing’s eyes lit up. “It’s said that Everlife Fruit can promote beast evolution and extend life and cultivation.”
“That’s right,” Bronson confirmed.
The blue-clad girl’s eyes sparkled. “Everlife Fruit is extremely rare and precious. I can’t believe there’s one in West Sea Enchanted Realm.”
“Junior Sister, let’s go. We shouldn’t keep Master waiting,” Bronson said eagerly.
She nodded and glanced at everyone before resting her gaze on Leo for two seconds. “Farewell everyone. Until we meet again.” With that, she followed Bronson out of the valley.
After they left, Channing thanked Leo. “Leo, thank you for your help.”
As a member of WONDER, Channing had heard of Leo and seen his photos even if they hadn’t met in person.
Leo waved it off. “No need for thanks. As a fellow member of WONDER in the Enchanted Realm, it’s only right we look out for each other.”
After exchanging a few more words with Fire Rose and ensuring Thunder Dragon was fine, Leo left the valley with Violet.
Outside the valley, Violet asked, “Leo, are we going to that Everlife Tree?”
“Of course. The Everlife Fruit is beneficial for both you and me,” Leo affirmed.
They headed towards the center of the Enchanted Realm. Along the way, they encountered several beasts but dealt with them easily.
After twenty minutes, to avoid getting lost, Leo climbed a tall tree to survey their surroundings before returning to the ground.
“Leo, how far are we from the center?” Violet asked.
“About ten kilometers,” Leo replied and continued leading her forward.
They encountered some foreigners but no conflicts arose.
When they were four or five kilometers from the center, a milky white mist filled the air with a peculiar fragrance that was quite pleasant.
Breathing deeply, Leo felt his Spiritual Power circulate faster. The scent seemed to have a magical pull, drawing them towards its source.
Violet was also captivated by the fragrance, her face showing a blissful expression.
Suddenly, a beast’s roar filled with rage and madness echoed from afar.
