After a while, he still didn't receive any response.
He snorted coldly, immediately activating the Fury of Immortal Burning, releasing fireballs to burn the blood-red mist ahead.
The crackling sound was incessant.
He urged the fireball to rush towards the blood-red mist, then let the fireball explode in mid-air.
After the fireball exploded, blazing flames spread out in all directions.
Soon, the fireballs had begun burning the surrounding blood-red mist.
"Friends of the Human Clan ahead, please cease your attack. We can have a discussion. What brings you to my place?"
At this moment, Duan Gujin heard a deep voice whisper in his ear.
At the same time, he saw that the blood-red mist in front had dissipated. He quickly deduced that the Blood-red Strange Tree ahead must have feared the fireballs he unleashed.
"You are from the Otherworld. You are now occupying the Human Clan's territory. Isn't your behavior called intrusion?"
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, and then he spoke.
"Your statement has a slight error. This place belonged to no one. When I arrived here, there was nothing – just a barren island!"
That Blood-red Strange Tree defended itself.
"Nonsense! This is the Plane of the Human Clan, the land here is naturally Human Clan territory. This place has an owner, and this island, its owner is me. I am the owner of this island! Now you are the invader of my island, what do you think I should do? What I need to do is to annihilate you. Am I right? Your companion, the Void Beast, has already been killed by me, now it's your turn. Do you want me to burn you with fire? I believe you are well aware of how formidable these fireballs in my hand are!"
Duan Gujin said coldly.
"Don't be like this. I now realize my mistake. Please forgive me, speak your terms directly!"
Upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, the Blood-red Strange Tree decisively admitted defeat.
"I want you to compensate for my losses. Do you think that is reasonable? I was planning to develop this lonely island into a habitable place. I could have made a lot of money on this island, turning myself into a rich man. However, your appearance has destroyed my life's dream. I will not let you go! If you wish for my forgiveness, you must provide sufficient compensation. Otherwise, I would have no choice but to burn you to ashes!"
The Blood-red Strange Tree understood from Duan Gujin's words that this Human Warrior wanted compensation.
But it was merely a tree from the Otherworld, it had nothing valuable to compensate Duan Gujin with.
It panicked immediately, and quickly asked, "My friend, what do you ask me to compensate? Just say it, I will certainly help in any way I can. I must tell you, I don't have anything valuable, nor anything good to compensate you with!"
Duan Gujin continued to threaten: "If you don't give me enough compensation, then your only fate is to be burned by me. Why should I suffer such financial loss because of you?"
"No, no, you tell me, what do you wish for me to compensate you with?"
The Blood-red Strange Tree panicked.
Upon hearing the pleading words of the opponent, Duan Gujin knew he had overpowered it.
He knew that although he could burn the Blood-red Strange Tree to ashes, he couldn't extract any useful information from it. He thought that perhaps he could extract some valuable intelligence from it.
He didn't plan on obtaining any valuable treasures from the Blood-red Strange Tree. His eyes flashed, and he asked: "I ask you, do you have any valuable treasures on you?"
The Blood-red Strange Tree pondered for a while, then replied: "I don't know if I have any valuable treasures. I am merely a tree, I possess nothing!"
"Then surely, you can produce some fruit, or maybe your roots, stems, and leaves have value?"
Duan Gujin probed.
"I can grow some fruit, but I fear these fruits have little function. Wait a moment, I can give you some of my fruit!"
The Blood-red Strange Tree replied.
"Very well!"
Duan Gujin nodded slightly.
After a while, a fist-sized fruit fell from the tree.
Yet, the fruit was quickly caught mid-air by a tendril.
"Here, see if this fruit is of any use to you?"
That Blood-red Strange Tree said.
"Okay!"
Duan Gujin responded.
The next moment, he caught the fruit tossed by the Blood-red Strange Tree.
His Divine Sense entered the fruit, examining its internal condition.
He carefully checked for quite some time and discovered that the fruit contained a powerful Exotic Realm Rule Power.
He seriously recalled the earlier memory of Lu Hu, linking Lu Hu's memories with the internal condition of the fruit he now explored. He soon understood that this fruit in his hand could help Exotic Realm Creatures recover their strength.
"Indeed, those Exotic Realm Creatures can use this fruit to restore their depleted powers! In terms of effect, this fruit is akin to the Immortal Elixirs of the Immortal Domain, allowing the Exotic Realm Creatures to quickly recover their consumed energies! No wonder that Void Beast stayed near this Blood-red Strange Tree."
"Unfortunately, this fruit has no effect on us in the Human Clan! On the contrary, if we consume this fruit, the Rule Power within us would become chaotic, not only failing to restore our strength but also causing severe damage to our internal organs!"
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, and he said to the Blood-red Strange Tree: "This fruit you gave me holds no value for me. You need to provide something else!"
The Blood-red Strange Tree explained: "The most valuable thing I have is this fruit. I've seen all those living creatures enjoy eating my fruit, which is how I know my fruit is very valuable!"
"They are they, I am me; I am different from them. Don't judge me with their perspective; this fruit is utterly useless to me, just worthless waste. Offer something else!"
Duan Gujin said impatiently.
"Something else? Apart from this fruit that appeals to those Exotic Realm Creatures, I have nothing else of value! It's not that I don't want to give you something else, it's that I truly have no other valuable treasure!"
That Blood-red Strange Tree explained.
Duan Gujin snorted coldly, saying: "If you truly lack any other valuable treasure, then I will have no choice but to burn you to ashes. I need some firewood to burn, I think serving as firewood is your greatest value!"
The Blood-red Strange Tree, hearing Duan Gujin's words, knew the other party was truly angry.
