Chapter 218: Killing the 10,000-year Tree Demon
With both hands lifted up, he actually tossed the Brilliant Sun over his head.
That Brilliant Sun was like a fiery meteor that flew in the air and quickly turned into a gigantic fireball that was close to three-meters wide.
Lan Xuanyu’s silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass was wrapped around Lin Donghui at this moment, and this was also his strongest move. Lin Donghui reached the conclusion that even if his cultivation had reached four rings, his full-force attack would probably only reach this standard.
The Emerald Demon Bird took off like a missile, and the Brilliant Sun fireball came. With the 10,000-year Tree Demon severely injured, it was in the most agonizing state at this moment. Its branches flew to block it, but that Brilliant Sun fiery meteor’s temperature wasn’t comparable to those fireballs just now. In just a moment, there were flames; large pieces of branches fell apart as the fireball bombarded the trunk.
Sparks flew everywhere, and the body of the 10,000-year Tree Demon that was over a hundred-meters long suddenly curled up. In that hot flame, its branches began to constrain itself.
This was the strongest defense ability, and it could be said to be a life-saving skill. It was called Many Returns to One.
It was, without a doubt, that with the strength of Lan Xuanyu and the rest, once they allowed it to complete this strong defense, nobody would be able to defeat it; the only loss for the 10,000-year Tree Demon was that it couldn’t attack for the time being.
“Now is the time. Qianqiu.”
Lan Xuanyu suddenly released the duo-colored Blue Silver Grass that was wrapped around Yu Tian and Lin Donghui and wrapped it around Dong Qianqiu.
When Dong Qianqiu was summoned, he already whispered to inform her. At this moment, Dong Qianqiu only looked at him with a little bitterness; but in the next instant, the entire world seemed to have become a world of ice and snow.
When that extreme dark blue surfaced, Yu Tian, Lin Donghui, and Qian Lei, who were next to Lan Xuanyu and Dong Qianqiu, all felt as if they were about to freeze. That wasn’t a pleasant feeling especially for Lin Donghui who had just attacked and whose attribute was fire. He felt like his body was about to collapse.
Then, they saw a pair of huge, deep blue eyes that were icy and merciless appear in that deep blue world; a faint blue light released.
Martial Soul Fusion technique, Deep Blue Gaze!
Previously, Lan Xuanyu and Dong Qianqiu relied on this move to freeze the Sinister Dark Demon Tiger.
That Sinister Dark Demon Tiger might not be older than this 10,000-year Tree Demon, but it was very powerful. The 10,000-year Sinister Dark Demon Tiger already stood at the pinnacle in the world of soul beasts; it was the strongest among that series of soul beasts while this 10,000-year Tree Demon was just an ordinary 10,000-year soul beast.
Since it could freeze even the Sinister Dark Demon Tiger, it would definitely freeze this soul beast before them.
The branches that were coming down rapidly were instantly solidified; the huge body of the 10,000-year Tree Demon froze at this moment.
Lan Xuanyu and Dong Qianqiu were like one body. His body had gone limp as he fell into Dong Qianqiu’s embrace and felt the changes of the 10,000-year Tree Demon.
This fella’s battle power wasn’t as strong as the Sinister Dark Demon Tiger; but its body was too huge, and the Deep Blue Gaze had to cover a wide area that decreased its efficacy. It would only freeze it for a short period of time.
“Now’s the time. Attack!”
Next to him, Lin Donghui, Yu Tian, and Qian Lei clearly couldn’t complete their attacks.
Bing Tianliang, who went all-out to attack just now and created this opportunity before them, got up once again. His fourth Soul Skill lit up again, and he turned into a gigantic electric ball as he crashed it hard against the trunk of the frozen 10,000-year Tree Demon.
There were deafening claps of thunder, and the explosion bore a huge hole on the trunk of the 10,000-year Tree Demon. Bing Tianliang’s body fell back from the force as well.
A silver light suddenly appeared at this moment and the glaring light of the spear that was three-feet long pierced deeply through the tree, all the way to the tip of the spear.
Liu Feng had been hiding at the side and waiting for a chance to throw the White Dragon Spear with his Silver Moon Wolf Right Arm.
And that dark green luster appeared at this moment without a sound; it immediately drilled through the hole and disappeared in the trunk of that huge tree.
“ZHI——” An ear-piercing screech came from the direction of the 10,000-year Tree Demon, and that sharp noise forced everyone to cover their ears.
Following that, the 10,000-year Tree Demon’s dark blue color disappeared, and all of its branches suddenly straightened. Then, a horrifying scene appeared.
Those branches were like arrows as they shot out. They actually broke by themselves and flew in all directions.
Cracks began appearing on the 10,000-year Tree Demon’s body; it seemed like it wouldn’t be able to live any longer.
However, those flying branches were filled with the last bit of combat power of the 10,000-year Tree Demon, and that wasn’t something that just anyone could withstand.
Yu Tian moved and quickly went forward to block. He brandished the Mo Sword and chopped with all his might.
“BANG!” Just the first branch sent his entire being flying. Lin Donghui saw that the situation was bad; he quickly pressed on the signaling device that he had already prepared beforehand and disappeared in a flash.
The pain sensation was 50 percent in the Spirit Ascension Platform, and that was no laughing matter.
While Yu Tian was sent flying from the blast, he pressed on the signaling device as well and disappeared, too.
Qian Lei saw that things were bad and wanted to do the same too, but he heard Lan Xuanyu’s shout, “Don’t!”
After that, he saw Lan Xuanyu turn around, his back facing those flying branches. The golden- and silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass were flying wildly from both hands and formed a large net behind him. At the same time, a layer of light appeared on his body, and layers of ice shield froze behind him. At this moment, he had already used whatever he could use and gave his all.
“Boom, boom, boom!” The ice shield shattered, so did the golden- and silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass. Lan Xuanyu hugged Dong Qianqiu as they fell forward, but he still protected Dong Qianqiu and Qian Lei and blocked the first wave of attacks. He gritted his teeth. With one hand holding Dong Qianqiu and the other grabbing onto Qian Lei, he did some weird footwork and sprinted forward.
“PU!” Just then, Qian Lei was shocked to see a branch pierced through Lan Xuanyu’s chest. At that instant, Lan Xuanyu’s hands were spread wide apart, and that branch that pierced through him did not touch Dong Qianqiu and Qian Lei. Instead, his body was sent flying forward from the inertia of that branch.
Lan Xuanyu clenched his teeth, his feet moved faster and he pounced toward the trees in front.
A figure then appeared behind them. He lifted the White Dragon Spear and tossed those weaker branches away. After throwing the White Dragon Spear just now, Liu Feng had already retreated to a safe area and summoned the White Dragon Spear back in his hands. After he avoided the shooting of the strongest branches from the first wave, he managed to come back and assist in time.
A distance away, Bing Tianliang—who had turned his body into lightning—was flashing in the woods and dodging all the branches. Although he was in a difficult position, he forced himself to dodge them.
He could see very clearly that Lan Xuanyu was grabbing onto the two people and that thick branch that pierced through Lan Xuanyu’s chest; but Bing Tianliang’s feet didn’t slow down.
This was a pain sensation of 50 percent, ah! This fella was truly a tough man.
Just then, the 10,000-year Tree Demon’s huge body finally broke down completely and turned into a strong, white light that scattered everywhere. One portion went into Bing Tianliang’s body, and the other portions went toward Lan Xuanyu and the rest.
Lan Xuanyu, Dong Qianqiu, Qian Lei, and Liu Feng were covered in the white light at the same time and immediately felt the heat spread in their bodies. However, Lan Xuanyu was bleeding through his mouth and nose at this moment, and it was as if the pain from his chest had drawn all his energy.
