The appearance of an old man with the surname Jiang caused the atmosphere in the laboratory to turn strange.
Lin Duo could not believe that Mister Gu Nan would do such a thing. Lin Ke was shocked by the connection between Gu Nan and his sister. Only Eldest Brother scratched his head, completely clueless as to what was going on.
Gu Nan still could not recall who this person was.
When the two policemen, Jiang Tian and Jiang Xue, entered the laboratory, he did not know their names. Naturally, he could not guess the ghost tree's identity.
However, this did not affect his actions. The shadow sword pierced into the ghost tree's heart in an instant.
However, the ghost tree did not move, and a smile appeared on his aged face.
Gu Nan's sword seemed to have no effect on him at all. The shadow of the ancient tree behind him slowly solidified until it was completely solid, standing in front of everyone.
This was a true third rank heroic spiritualist, and was at the peak. According to the classification of the Cosmic Realm, he was at the same level as a daolord.
They had already broken through the boundary between the two types of heroic spiritualists. Their heroic spirits and bodies were always in a state of half-fusion, and they could fight alone or by themselves.
One of the few daolords in the Morning Star Realm had actually appeared in front of Gu Nan.
"The realm of a daolord?" Gu Nan frowned slightly. His strength was only a portion of his body's, so it would not be easy to kill a daolord.
With a flip of his right hand, the longsword fell towards the ancient tree, stabbing at the same spot fifteen times in a row.
He pierced a big hole in the ancient tree, but before he could do anything else, the big hole quickly healed.
"It's useless." The ghost tree spoke expressionlessly, his eyes devoid of any emotion. "I've extracted the life force of tens of thousands of people, how can you kill me?"
Gu Nan only looked at him coldly. If the enemy was already in an invincible position and still continued to talk nonsense, there was only one possibility — he did not have the ability to kill the enemy, at least not yet.
He was stalling for time.
Gu Nan saw this, and a faint smile appeared on his face. He stood on the spot without moving, but his body gradually turned black.
Although with Gu Nan's skills, he could always kill the monsters he wanted, there was a problem of cost-effectiveness.
Killing the other party would take a lot of effort and time, and there were no benefits to be gained. On the other hand, not killing the other party would not cause any losses, so why kill the other party?
Gu Nan had never thought of himself as a bloodthirsty person. He simply wanted to complete a mission.
Seeing this, the ghost tree's expression changed slightly. It could no longer maintain its confident expression. The ancient tree behind it suddenly opened all its branches, emitting a scarlet light.
Everyone's hearts sank. It was as if something was slowly flowing out of their bodies towards the ancient tree.
Ghost Tree's expression was still gloomy. He could clearly feel the life link from everyone except Gu Nan.
The blackening of Gu Nan's body continued, and a red light began to glow beneath his feet. It was the Ghost Tree's Heroic Spirit Domain.
Unfortunately, before the red light could completely surround Gu Nan, he had already turned into a black shadow and shattered, as if he was never there in the first place.
"Damn it …" Seeing that his domain was only one step away from completion, but his opponent managed to escape, Ghost Tree could not help but curse.
His Heroic Spirit Domain could attack and defend at the same time, but it was not good enough for pursuit. What he was most afraid of was his opponent turning around and leaving without a fight.
Therefore, he had been stalling for time with words from the beginning. He did not expect Gu Nan to still escape.
…
Gu Zhaoyue stood next to Gu Nan's shadow body, watching the fruit glowing blue. Even he wanted to hide from the majestic aura.
'Is this the fruit of that tree? No wonder it can attract Moon Slaves … '
Gu Zhaoyue could feel the faint aura of Moon Slaves around him. Connecting it to the giant tree, he could roughly guess what was going on.
Five tall Moon Slaves with different expressions were sizing them up curiously, which made Gu Zhaoyue even more confused.
He did not know what Gu Nan was doing. In fact, he could not even understand Gu Nan's actions all this while.
There was no such thing as unconditional loyalty in this world. Gu Zhaoyue was an ambitious person, or rather, an ambitious Heroic Spirit. He was only passionate about power.
When Gu Nan was able to back him up and provide him with power, Gu Nan would naturally be able to gain his loyalty. However, things were different now.
Gu Nan wanted to destroy everything he had.
Gu Zhaoyue clenched his fists, hesitating.
His rationality told him that even if he destroyed the fruit, Gu Nan would not let him and his campsite go. However … was he going to just watch everything happen?
"Grandpa Gu, what are you doing here?" A childish voice came from the side. Gu Zhaoyue turned his head in surprise.
He saw a little girl about five or six years old standing next to the bushes. She was holding a little white dog in her arms.
The little white dog looked at Gu Zhaoyue and even barked twice.
Gu Zhaoyue looked at them blankly. He did not know this little girl, but he felt that she looked familiar. However, he knew very well that in the little girl's eyes, he might be the savior of the world.
He raised his head, and his gaze toward the blue fruit gradually became determined.
…
"Master Ghost Tree, the Moon Slaves are gathering outside, and the source of power is not far away. Do you think it was done by that person?"
Eye Demon approached Ghost Tree and said in a low voice.
Ghost Tree's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "It must be him! Several campsites have been destroyed by the Moon Slaves today. It was all the result of a large number of Moon Slaves gathering. It must be Gu Nan's doing! "
On the other side, Lin Duo and the others had just heard the news. Lin Duo asked in confusion, "Sister, what's going on with the gathering of Moon Slaves?"
Lin Ke's face turned pale. Before she could speak, Moon Demon murmured, "It's the power of the Guiding Moon Fruit … He actually used it here!"
As a witness of the trip to the Western City, Lin Duo also understood what Gu Nan had done after Moon Demon's explanation. The fear in her heart grew deeper and deeper.
"Mister Gu Nan, he … how could he …"
She did not know how many times she had tried to communicate with Gu Nan with her Heroic Spirit Contract, but her attempts were futile.
"We have to stop him!" Sun Demon rarely took the initiative to speak, "If the power of the seven Guiding Moon Fruits is fused together, the true King of Moon Slaves will be born, and the disaster of Moon Slaves will be unstoppable."
Lin Duo was not used to Xiaoming's long speech, but she understood the meaning behind his words.
In the end, it was just one word: stop him!
Ghost Tree and Eye Demon's figures had already disappeared, and Lin Duo and the others hurried over.
"Wait, I'll go too!" Tian Tian said. Lin Duo and her sister had no reason to stop her, so they immediately nodded and agreed.
But no one expected that a big guy would stand up at this time and grab Tian Tian with one hand.
"Hey, what are you doing?! Let me go, let … huh? "
