The old tree had used all of his strength to form a final line of defense.
Burning his essence blood was indeed the best he could do, given that he was nearing the end of his lifespan.
To put it bluntly, even if the old tree didn't die in the battle, he wouldn't be able to live for much longer. His lifespan was almost depleted.
Moreover, even if the old tree was going all out to protect the land of creation, it was nothing more than a joke in the eyes of the other progenitors.
He didn't have the power to protect the land of creation. The old tree that seemed to blot out the sky was actually so weak that it couldn't even withstand a single blow from the other progenitors.
Of course, the old tree understood this. He was only doing this to buy time for Wood Spirit and the others.
He wanted them to escape successfully.
There was no way he could protect the land of creation. At the very least, he wanted Wood Spirit and the others to survive.
"Old Tree, you …" Wood Spirit and the others looked at the old tree with complicated expressions. How could they not know what the old tree was thinking?
"Hurry up and leave."
To this, the old tree only replied with one sentence. After living for so many years, this was the most he could do in the end.
The other progenitors didn't react in the slightest. Their expressions were as calm as ever.
Ancestor Mu sneered as he looked at the old tree.
"Old man, is this the place you've chosen to end up?"
The progenitors naturally recognized the old tree. After all, he'd been around for far too long.
Back when the progenitors were born and hadn't yet escaped the land of creation, the old tree had already been around.
However, at that time, he was only a small sapling. Even his spiritual intelligence was only in the beginning stages.
After so many years, the old tree's lifespan was nearing its end. If it weren't for Little Qing, he would've died long ago.
Upon hearing Patriarch Mu's words, the old tree snorted. "Hmph, why waste your breath? Let's just do it."
"Fine, I'll give you a quick death today," Patriarch Mu said indifferently.
They were old acquaintances of the old tree, and they could see that the old tree was nearing the end of its life.
Even if they left him alone, he'd still die. But since he wanted to die, they'd send him on his way.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ancestor Bai made his move. He gently pointed out with his finger, and a beam of light streaked across the sky, heading straight for the old tree.
In the face of Ancestor Bai's attack, the old tree's body emitted a green light that enveloped him.
However, the azure light that filled the sky was unable to stop Ancestor Bai's attack.
When the two collided, the cyan light surrounding the old tree was directly shattered. It was not even able to block the attack.
The difference in strength was simply too great. It was so great that there was no way to make up for it through other means.
In terms of strength, the old tree could not be considered an ancient life form.
Therefore, there was nothing the old tree could do in the face of the Primogenitor's attack. It could only watch helplessly.
With one strike, the old tree was directly shattered. The terrifying spiritual energy instantly killed the old tree.
He did not purposely try to annoy the old tree. Instead, he simply killed it with a single strike.
Everyone had known each other for so many years. The Primogenitors didn't have any bad taste in someone who was about to die.
Moreover, looking at the old tree's death, Ancestor Qiu's face revealed a tinge of sorrow, although it was just a flash.
Time was the ultimate enemy that many people had to face. Unless they were like the Primogenitors, who had transcended the limits of time, they would inevitably be eroded by time.
"He's still old."
"This is already the best ending for him."
As soon as Qiu Zu's voice fell, Qing Zu, who was standing at the side, said faintly. Although he was dead, this was actually the best outcome for the old tree.
At least it was much better than dying of old age. There was no doubt about that.
After dealing with the old tree, Ancestor Mu, Ancestor Bai took a step forward and chased after Mu Ling and the others.
"You guys deal with the place of creation. The two of us will deal with the other fishes that escaped the net."
Mu Ling and the others escaped, but they didn't go far. Ancestor Mu and Ancestor Bai took action personally. As for the others, they destroyed the place of creation.
The other Primogenitors naturally had no objections. On the other side, Mu Ling and the others had successfully escaped with the help of the old tree.
Although they were grieving, they didn't dare to linger because they weren't out of danger yet.
They ran quickly. However, Ancestor Mu and Ancestor Bai appeared out of thin air in front of them and blocked their way.
Seeing Ancestor Bai and Ancestor Mu, Mu Ling and the others stopped helplessly. With their way blocked, there was no way for them to escape.
They still didn't succeed. In the hands of the Primogenitors, even escaping was an extravagant hope.
"You guys know that it's impossible to succeed."
Ancestor Bai said faintly as he looked at Mu Ling and the others.
From the beginning, Mu Ling and the others should have known that the possibility of them escaping in front of the Primogenitors was close to zero.
"How would we know if we don't try?" Mu Ling gritted her teeth and said.
In response, Ancestor Bai revealed a faint smile.
"Now you know the result?"
"Humph, where is the Heaven and Earth Spirit?"
Mu Ling snorted coldly and didn't linger on the question. Instead, she asked about Little Qing's whereabouts.
She didn't believe that Little Qing was in any danger because the Primogenitors couldn't possibly kill Little Qing. Moreover, Little Qing had Xiao Chen and the others by her side.
In response, Ancestor Bai simply chuckled and said, "Don't worry.
"Is this important to you guys? She isn't dead, but you guys won't be able to see her. "
Whether Little Qing was dead or not had nothing to do with Mu Ling and the others. Even if she wasn't dead, Mu Ling and the others wouldn't be able to see her.
Mu Ling didn't say anything. There was indeed no hope in the current situation.
Moreover, there were continuous waves of attacks coming from behind them. It was obvious that the other Primogenitors had begun their operation to destroy the land of creation.
Mu Ling's face turned gloomy and her heart ached when she thought about the disaster that had befallen the land of creation.
It was hard to imagine how many living beings would be killed in the Land of Creation after this round of attacks.
Probably no one would be able to survive in such a situation.
No one could withstand the attacks of the Primogenitors. To the many living beings in the land of creation, no one could withstand their attacks.
This was the end of the world. Despair, fear, and helplessness intertwined in everyone's hearts.
Looking at the Wood Spirit's incomparably complicated expression, Ancestor Bai did not waste any more words. He directly pointed his finger and spoke indifferently.
"There's no need to pointlessly struggle. Everything is already decided. Go in peace."
As he spoke, Ancestor Bai pointed his finger at the Wood Spirit. The Wood Spirit had no way of dodging this attack, let alone blocking it.
A dense aura of death instantly enveloped her.
