"Wh-what? Goblin High Priest?"
Ye Feng looked at Yuan Ling in surprise.
"Gulu!~"
Yuan Ling swallowed, her voice trembling, "Y-yes... I always thought it was a legend... I didn't expect there to be goblins that could speak human language... A Goblin High Priest!"
"Quack Quack!~"
While the goblins were roaring fanatically, Ye Feng frowned and asked, "Goblin High Priest, is this guy much stronger than those Goblin Priests?"
"The Goblin High Priest is a legendary monster... It is said that no one has seen it... or those who have seen it are dead..."
"Legend... the Goblin High Priest... possesses the power of a god!"
By the end of her words, Yuan Ling's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat.
"Quack~ Boom!"
Suddenly, a goblin cry came from the altar above Ye Feng and Yuan Ling, followed by a large ball of flame hurtling towards them.
"We've been discovered!"
Ye Feng and Yuan Ling's expressions changed, and they quickly leaped to the sides.
"Bang! Rumble!~"
The ball of flame struck the ground, instantly creating a large crater and revealing a large area of slightly glowing, rune-carved objects beneath. Amidst the raging flames, there was a faint pink glow, which was the Annihilation Array Yuan Ling had spoken of.
"Is it him?!"
Having moved further away from the altar, Ye Feng could finally see the Goblin High Priest above the altar. It was the goblin with the bracelet that he had seen on the survivor channel before.
At this moment, the creature was dancing a bizarre dance above the altar, and the void in the center of the blood-red array in the sky twisted with the Goblin High Priest's strange dance, seeming on the verge of shattering...
"Ye Feng, you know that Goblin High Priest?"
Yuan Ling was surprised to hear Ye Feng's words.
"Quack!~"
Before Ye Feng could answer, two Goblin Paladins, one after another, drew their rune-engraved swords and surged towards Ye Feng, arcane energy surging around them.
Ye Feng's eyes narrowed. True energy surged forth, and he twisted his body, dodging the flaming longsword thrust by the Goblin Paladin behind him. In an instant, he slammed his palm towards the creature's head.
"Bang! Clang! Crackle~"
Ye Feng's palm, infused with true energy, struck the Goblin Paladin's flame-wreathed armor, shattering its head and body in an instant.
The Goblin Paladin, its head crushed, had not yet fallen when Ye Feng's fist struck the chest of another Goblin Paladin that had just charged forward.
"Boom!"
The armor on the Goblin Paladin's chest instantly shattered. The true energy, after destroying its heart, pierced through its body and shattered the armor on its back as well.
"Ye Feng, be careful, the blood of Goblin Priest Guards is strong acid!"
At this moment, Yuan Ling, who had just cut a Goblin Paladin in half, shouted anxiously to Ye Feng.
This was because a Goblin Priest Guard was less than a meter behind Ye Feng, its blade-like protrusion on its upper body rapidly slashing towards him.
Simultaneously, another Goblin Priest Guard spread its arms and charged directly at Ye Feng, as if intending to embrace him.
Seeing this, Ye Feng's hand flashed with light, and a cold, arcane talisman appeared in his hand. He suddenly dropped low.
In a flash, the two Goblin Priest Guards were above Ye Feng. Ye Feng immediately activated the arcane talisman in his hand.
"Zzzt zzzt zzzt!"
The arcane talisman flashed, and a large number of ice spikes shot out, piercing the two Goblin Priest Guards like hedgehogs. The strong acid they sprayed was immediately blocked by the large blocks of ice.
"Sizzle!~"
"Bang! Quack"
"Crackle!~ Bang!"
Ye Feng quickly tested the strong acidity of the Goblin Priest Guard's bodily fluids with an ordinary metal knife. Then, he slid out from the gaps in the ice, and in the process, smashed the heads of two Goblin Paladins.
"Quack Quack!~"
At this moment, hundreds of Goblin Paladins and Goblin Priest Guards surrounding them all let out strange cries and charged towards Ye Feng and Yuan Ling.
"Boom!~"
Seeing this, Yuan Ling shot a large ball of flame into the sky, which was the signal she had agreed upon with Alak and the others.
"Ten Thousand Trees Spring!"
The moment the flame's light erupted, He Shangliang's voice, like a roaring bell, resounded across the entire land.
"Bang! Click!~"
"Whoosh! Huhu!~"
"Zzzt zzzt zzzt!"
In the next second, the ground around the entire pyramid erupted with countless towering trees.
These trees shot up from the ground, their sharp branches impaling and killing large numbers of goblins, while numerous vines and other growths entangled swaths of them...
In a short while, the entire area transformed into a primeval forest composed of towering trees.
"Holy crap, is this monk that strong?"
Ye Feng, who had just killed two Goblin Paladins, was shocked.
"Withered Trees!"
At this moment, the monk's voice sounded again, but this time it carried a hint of weakness.
"Ah~ Quack~"
"Quack~~"
As the monk's words fell, a series of goblin screams echoed around.
Ye Feng looked in the direction of the sounds and saw that the goblins entangled by the towering trees' vines or branches were all letting out piercing screams. Their bodies were rapidly aging and shriveling up... within a few breaths, they were silent, and the trees grew even more lush...
"Quack Quack!~"
A large number of goblins screamed and, using various methods, struggled to break free from the branches and vines that bound them. Some cut off their own hands, some their legs, some stepped on other goblins to leap away...
"Quack!~"
At this moment, the Goblin High Priest on top of the altar let out a strange cry, pointed towards a direction within the forest, and a group of Goblin Paladins and Goblin Priest Guards immediately rushed towards it.
"Is that the direction where He Shang is?"
Ye Feng glanced at the direction the Goblin High Priest pointed and saw that the tree layout in that area did indeed show signs of defense.
In the next second, Ye Feng's hand flashed with light, and he unleashed a large stack of cold, emanating arcane talismans.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
"Zzzt zzzt zzzt!"
"Crack! Crackle!"
A torrent of ice cones and ice spikes rained down upon the group of Goblin Paladins and Goblin Priest Guards, killing many of them and forming a region surrounded by icebergs on the stone platform at the top of the pyramid.
"Whoosh! Slash! Rumble!"
Yuan Ling, after burying several Goblin Paladins surrounding her with flames, quickly jumped to Ye Feng's side, "Ye Feng, we can't fight the Goblin High Priest. Let's find an opportunity to activate the Annihilation Array and then leave this place!"
"Okay!"
Ye Feng nodded. After all, he had basically achieved his goal for coming here, and he didn't really want to fight the so-called Goblin High Priest.
After all, according to Yuan Ling, that Goblin High Priest possessed divine power or something...
"Hoo!"
Just then, a faint gust of wind came from in front of Ye Feng, and a one-meter-tall green figure instantly appeared before him. It was the Goblin High Priest.
