The tree demon's remaining branches also began to burn fiercely. At this moment, it was waving about wildly, sending sparks flying in all directions. Muffled howls could be heard coming from the giant tree. It was as if this was not a tree demon, but a real person. It could actually shout, and the sound gave everyone a very strange feeling.
Although the fire attack was successful, everyone did not dare to have the slightest neglect. As long as the Tree Demon was not dead, the crisis would not be resolved.
Long Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Take advantage of this opportunity, everyone attack together. We must seriously injure it. Don't get too close, or you will be burned by the fire."
No one hesitated. Everyone picked up their weapons, and Sword Qi and Saber Light were launched at the Tree Demon from a long distance. Before, everyone's attacks could not hurt the Tree Demon at all, but in this situation, the Tree Demon's defense seemed to have been greatly reduced. Every attack could easily cut off a piece of flaming bark from the Tree Demon's body.
"It can't hold on any longer! Continue to consume it, and sooner or later it will die! " Xiang Tao shouted in joy. Since the beginning of the war, this was the first time they had achieved such a huge victory, and this was undoubtedly due to the fire attack strategy that he had proposed. Xiang Tao felt that he had made a great contribution.
Although the situation was good, there was still a trace of vigilance in Lu Xuan's heart. Such a powerful Tree Demon could actually be burned to death by a fire? This Tree Demon was too useless.
However, at this moment, he was still trying his best to attack. If he could really kill the Tree Demon in this way, it would be a good thing.
But at this moment, a strong vitality suddenly surged, and the Tree Demon's body bloomed with a strong green light that symbolized life!
Under the dumbfounded gaze of everyone, the Tree Demon's body exploded in an instant, and countless flaming bark and branches quickly ejected towards the martial artists.
"Quickly dodge!"
"Everyone dodge!"
…
No one expected that the Tree Demon would suddenly launch an attack at this time. Caught off guard, the martial artists dodged in panic, but the Tree Demon's body was so huge that the dense attacks almost completely enveloped the area where everyone was.
"Ahhhh!"
One after another, miserable shrieks rang out incessantly. Lu Xuan used [Seeing the Dragon in the Field] to form a sturdy Origin Energy shield, blocking the oncoming attacks. He promptly turned his head to look, only to see that quite a few martial artists had already become people on fire. The raging flames seemed to have swallowed their entire bodies, and were even more intense than the flames on the Tree Demon's body.
This was because the Tree Demon had mixed a trace of vitality into it. The moment before it shot out these branches, it had already seeped in a trace of vitality, intensifying the burning of the flames.
"Save them first!" Long Ming hurriedly said.
At the crucial moment, Zhao Bing`er flew out and lightly waved the longsword in her hand. The surrounding ice-elemental energy instantly became active, and everyone felt the surrounding temperature drop a little.
Zhao Binger waved her sword, and several icy blue storms appeared. She shouted, "Ice Storm!"
Under her control, the icy storms accurately found the martial artists who were hit by the flames. As the icy storms swept past, the flames on the martial artists' bodies were instantly extinguished. Although they were already on the verge of death, they were still alive.
Seeing this scene, the Profound Ice Pavilion disciples suddenly understood, and they all started to use this martial skill at the same time. Ice Storm was only a Profound Level Middle Grade martial skill, and it was considered a widely spread martial skill in the Profound Ice Pavilion. Most people had learned it, and it was originally a martial skill used to attack enemies, but now it was the most suitable to use it to save people.
Of course, Lu Xuan had just joined the Profound Ice Pavilion not long ago, so he naturally hadn't learned this martial skill yet.
For a moment, dozens of icy storms appeared on the battlefield, and they all found the burning martial artists, saving them from the abyss of suffering.
Although the Profound Ice Pavilion's people came to the rescue in time, there were still some martial artists who were not strong enough to die. The Tree Demon's attack was really ruthless, and at least a few dozen people were injured, and nearly ten people died.
However, the Profound Ice Pavilion's actions had won everyone's favor. If it weren't for the Profound Ice Pavilion's timely intervention, the number of deaths would have at least doubled.
Yun Qi, Ruo Xiang Tao, and even Xiang Tao came to thank Zhao Binger. After all, if it weren't for Zhao Binger's reminder, the Profound Ice Pavilion disciples wouldn't have been able to react so quickly.
"This time, the Profound Ice Pavilion did well. Thank you." Long Ming also expressed his gratitude. Just now, three of the Jiuhua Alliance's disciples were also hit.
Zhao Binger was relatively calm, and she gently shook her head, "It was nothing."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile. This was Zhao Binger. In front of outsiders, no matter what, she wouldn't show too much emotion. She was the complete opposite of Ruo Xiang Tao, and they were practically two extremes.
But at that moment, a disciple cried out, "It's not dead!"
Everyone's faces changed, and they all turned to look at the Tree Spirit. They thought it had self-destructed, but it wasn't dead yet?
The Tree Demon that had just been burnt had regained its vitality. Fresh and tender branches had reappeared on its body, and they were growing at an extremely fast speed. It would not take long for it to return to its original state!
"It's not dead? How are we supposed to fight?! " Many of the disciples cried out in terror. Ten of their people had died, and forty or fifty were injured. But the Tree Spirit was still alive and well.
Long Ming's expression was ugly. It looked like Lu Xuan was right. The Tree Spirit's greatest strength was its vitality. Even with such heavy injuries, it was able to recover.
"Die!" The Tree Spirit's body emitted an indistinct cry of anger. No one knew where it had learned to pronounce this word, but it was undoubtedly in a state of rage.
Although it had recovered by relying on the powerful vitality hidden within its roots, the previous round had greatly damaged its luck. Without tens or even hundreds of years of accumulation, it would be impossible to recover.
"It's definitely heavily injured. If we use another wave of fire, we'll definitely be able to kill it!" Xiang Tao said through clenched teeth. The fire attack was his idea, but in the end, they hadn't been able to kill the Tree Spirit. Instead, they had suffered great losses, causing him to lose face.
"We can't use fire anymore. Otherwise, if the Tree Spirit attacks again, we'll suffer heavy casualties." Yun Qi immediately objected. Just now, their Heavenly Thunder Manor had lost three people, and fifteen were injured.
"Let's try again. If the Tree Spirit attacks again, everyone from Profound Ice Pavilion should be prepared to save people. I believe that with our previous experience, the disciples won't be so easily hit." Long Ming said in a low voice.
Since Long Ming had decided, Yun Qi couldn't say anything else. They could only try again.
"Let's first cut off these annoying branches." Looking at the randomly dancing branches, Long Ming said. Continuously cutting off the Tree Spirit's arms, the fire attacks were unable to reach its body.
Following Long Ming's order, the group of peak Soul Refinement martial artists took the initiative to attack the Tree Spirit's branches. Although the Tree Spirit was doing its best to fight back, it couldn't block the martial artists' movement techniques. It couldn't touch the peak Soul Refinement martial artists at all, and instead, its branches were destroyed one by one.
"Wind Fire Dragon Seal!"
"Heavenly Thunder Fire!"
The Jiuhua Union martial artist and Yun Qi's group once again rushed forward, using fire attribute martial techniques.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Tree Demon's body once again surged with a large amount of life energy, and countless branches suddenly appeared. This sudden change shocked Yun Qi and the others. The Tree Demon was not an idiot. Since it had already suffered a loss once, how could it suffer a second time? Relying on its powerful vitality, it forcefully formed branches.
Yun Qi and the others didn't continue to attack, and shouted, "Retreat! Quickly retreat! "
But it was already too late. Countless branches lashed out, instantly hitting the four of them and sending them flying. Immediately, another branch extended out, seemingly trying to trap the four of them and kill them. Fortunately, Lu Xuan and the other martial artists weren't too far away. They managed to catch up and forcefully save the four of them.
"This Tree Spirit is already prepared. Fire attacks are no longer effective. Use the second method!" Long Ming stared at the Tree Spirit and said. The Tree Spirit's vitality was far stronger than they expected. It had to be contained!
"Lady Ruo, it's all up to you." Xiang Tao said to Ruo Xiangyi with some unwillingness. The fire attack ultimately wasn't able to take down the Tree Spirit.
Ruo Xiangyi maintained a faint smile and said, "We can only forcefully extract the Tree Spirit's vitality. In order to truly kill the Tree Spirit, it still depends on everyone."
"Without sufficient vitality, it will be easier for us to forcefully kill the Tree Spirit. I want to see how it can deal with so many of us!" Long Ming was also infuriated. He was a sixth level Origin Realm martial artist, but he was actually beaten up by a Tree Spirit.
Ruo Xiangyi called all the female disciples of the Peony Palace. With Ruo Xiangyi as the center, they all formed a hand seal at the same time. An illusory and flawless White Peony began to slowly condense in front of Ruo Xiangyi.
This was undoubtedly a secret art belonging to the Peony Palace. It was rumored that the Peony Palace had a White Peony that had been growing for thousands of years, and the Peony Palace was established based on it.
When all the female disciples finished forming their hand seals, the White Peony was already in full bloom. A refreshing fragrance instantly permeated the air. Everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed, as though their spirit force had recovered a little. Their bodies were filled with energy. It was obvious that this White Peony had a miraculous effect that they didn't know about.
Ruo Xiangyi slowly opened her eyes and gently raised her right hand. The White Peony lightly floated towards the Tree Spirit at a moderate speed.
But how could the Tree Spirit just watch it fly over? Countless branches instantly swept towards the White Peony. But what was surprising was that this White Peony was completely illusory. The branches couldn't even touch it!
