All the trees on the mountain were awakened and uprooted from the ground.
After a short while, the surrounding mountains collapsed with a boom, and the bowmen who had been shooting at the tree people from the mountaintop fell with them, disappearing into the dust clouds rising with the collapse.
Seeing the mountain collapse, the tiger-headed dogs panicked and howled loudly. As they prepared to flee, the tree people entwined their limbs with roots, and overhead, formed barriers of branches like nets to prevent them from escaping.
As the thunderous roar continued, the tree people, tiger-headed dogs, and some of the slower bowmen were all buried in the rubble of the crumbling mountains.
In the sky, the Ghost King entered a new round of fierce battle with King Nanlin.
Before long, roots broke through the collapsed mountains, followed by tree people emerging from the holes where the roots had split through.
