Chapter 664: Chapter 345: Outburst, Deterrence_2
Lu Yun gave an order and his figure abruptly vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in the midst of the fierce battle between the Celestial Human Realm cultivators and the Serpent Fruit Tree.
The Serpent Fruit Tree didn’t take Lu Yun, a mere third level of Celestial Human Realm, seriously and only dispatched a single branch to swoop down and attack him.
This strike, strong enough to defeat a sixth level of the Celestial Human Realm, could effortlessly annihilate a mere third level.
Thus, it didn’t even spare Lu Yun another glance and instead directed other tendrils to attack the remaining Celestial Human Realm fighters.
With every Celestial Human killed and their life-force and blood essence absorbed, the Tree’s realm became firmer by one degree.
If it could absorb the life-force and blood essence of three seventh level Celestial Humans, it would become completely stable, and at that point, no one would be able to stop it.
“Crack!”
The Serpent Fruit Tree suddenly felt one of its tendrils get shattered, and the energy it had strenuously accumulated lost one-thousandth of its value in an instant.
A thousandth of its energy was equivalent to the life-force and blood essence of a seventh level Celestial Human!
It was that guy, daring to hurt me, unforgivable!
Following the broken tendril, the Tree was shocked to discover that the culprit was a third level Celestial Human youth.
Three branches immediately swept down towards him.
Although it didn’t understand how this person had shattered one of its tendrils, it didn’t diminish its hatred.
“You ant, I will dehydrate you into jerky to quell the hatred in my heart,” the Tree declared.
Three branches swept across the sky like poisonous snakes flicking their tongues, striking towards their target with great speed and ferocity.
Lu Yun didn’t dodge. A golden light emerged from his glabella and transformed into a God-Killing Blade, severing one of the branches.
Then, with his hands outstretched, he grabbed the other two branches that were sweeping down from both sides.
A giant elephant roared within his body, Divine Power surged explosively, and with a fierce effort of his arms, he tore the two branches apart.
This time, the Serpent Fruit Tree seemed to finally realize something. It ceased paying attention to the other Celestial Humans and retracted all its tendrils to deal with this ‘third level’ Celestial Human with all its might.
Tendrils twisted and entwined in the air, transforming into long snakes attacking from all directions with extreme speed and terrifying force.
Watching the sky filled with greenery, Lu Yun’s brow furrowed slightly, his eyes flashing with a golden light.
Indestructible!
As the green tendrils, like elongated snakes, whipped down, Lu Yun’s body radiated dazzling golden light, akin to striking an Indestructible Gold Bell, and they were all repulsed.
Lu Yun reached out his hand, and a long blade shrouded in red light appeared from the Cave Heavens.
The Blood Slaughter Blade, surrounded by terrifying Evil Qi, surged immediately when Lu Yun took it into his hand with one swift movement.
Next, the Blood Light spread out, and the Rules and World Power within the Cave Heavens were driven to their utmost.
Pfff, dozens of branches stretching out in front of him were successively shattered, and even the True Body of the Serpent Fruit Tree sustained a severe injury.
The rest of the Celestial Humans, witnessing the shockwaves of power crushing down upon them, saw a terrifying blade aura cut across the sky, splitting the numerous branches of the massive Serpent Fruit Tree.
Watching this scene unfold, everyone’s faces showed shock, as such a powerful being was able to forcefully suppress the Serpent Fruit Tree in the breakthrough.
Three eighth level Celestial Humans, about a dozen seventh level, and nearly a hundred sixth and fifth level had joined forces and failed to harm the Serpent Fruit Tree.
Yet this person struck with the might of thunder, suppressing the Serpent Fruit Tree, with a strength that was truly terrifying.
“The Serpent Fruit is mine,” someone exclaimed after recovering from the shock.
Their primary objective on this journey was to obtain a Serpent Fruit, to expand their Cave Heavens and enhance the potential of the Celestial Human Realm.
In such an excellent opportunity, how could they let it slip away?
However, as soon as they entered the domain of the Serpent Fruit Tree, branches reached out towards them, penetrating their Physical Bodies, rapidly draining their life-force and blood essence, even the worlds within their Cave Heavens were occupied by the tendrils.
It was at this moment they realized that even heavily injured, the Serpent Fruit Tree was still not something they could deal with.
Confronted by these densely packed tendrils, Lu Yun slashed down again with his Long Blade, severing dozens of branches and revealing a pathway. He promptly moved, entering the pathway.
Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui, the two women, closely followed Lu Yun and charged into the pathway as well.
The strong Celestial Humans from Eight Directions Sect and the Shadowy Hall, their eyes flashing with fervent desire, cut through the blocking branches and hurried towards that pathway.
On the other side, Wen Shouzeng cursed inwardly as a wave of annoyance washed over him, dealing with the persistent Dark Ice Serpent that refused to let him go.
For some reason, the Dark Ice Serpent focused only on him, merely obstructing the attacks from Zhong Ziyi and the Stone Beastman while dedicating itself to dealing with him, which was just too much.
“Human, meet your death!” the Dark Ice Serpent coldly declared with a glint in its eyes, unleashing the Black Dragon Breath, a frosty dragon roaring towards its target, Wen Shouzeng.
A look of despair appeared on Wen Shouzeng’s face as he gripped his Long Sword tightly, the Power of the Cave Sky World surging wildly within him, the Rules condensing, as he struggled to block the opponent’s attack.
With a boom, he felt a tremendous force collide with him, and then his body shot through the air like a cannonball.
Immediately after, an extreme chill descended upon him, uncontrollably solidifying the blood in his veins. Under the assault of the cold, his entire body uncontrollably began to freeze. Despite the resistance from the Power of the Cave Sky World, he couldn’t stop it. On the contrary, the invasion of the cold rendered his Cave Sky World chaotic.
