Sikong Tiancai couldn't help but furrow his brows when he saw that Lu Xuan was still entangled with Ruo Xiangyi. Lu Xuan wasn't taking him seriously at all.
Then, he smiled viciously and said, "Since you two are so close, I'll send you two down to hell to become a pair of lovebirds. Let's go together and destroy them!"
As soon as Sikong Tiancai finished speaking, everyone from the Sikong Family and the Illusory God Sect immediately took action. A series of shouts rang out, and several Soul Race members led by Ku Er also began to channel their soul power at this moment. This unavoidable battle had finally erupted!
"Kill!" Long Boming roared. He raised his longsword and charged to the front, instantly engaging Ku Er in battle. Ku Er was a Seven-star Soul Emperor, while Long Boming was in the Seventh Stage of the Great Void Realm. Their strength was almost equal. Ku Er's soul power couldn't easily break through Long Boming's defense and hurt his soul, and Long Boming couldn't do anything to Ku Er.
He Ridi went after Zuo Cen, Nangong Yang went against Dong Ruyi, and the rest of the experts found their targets. With so many Great Void Realm experts fighting at the same time, the power was absolutely terrifying. But as soon as the battle began, the Nine East Alliance was at an absolute disadvantage. In this forest, they were at a disadvantage that they couldn't make up for, and that was Sikong Tiancai's existence, or rather, the Tree of Life in his hand.
Even though the Sikong Clan had paid a huge price to obtain this Tree of Life, in Sikong Tiancai's opinion, it was absolutely worth it. Because the strength of this tiny branch had completely exceeded his imagination. He was actually able to control this forest with just this branch, and he was able to absorb the dense life force within the branches to replenish himself. Moreover, he was even able to extract the life force of others.
At that moment, Sikong Tiancai activated the power of the Tree of Life in a frenzy. All the trees around him seemed to have come to life at that moment, waving their branches like a bunch of demons dancing in a frenzy. Being so close to the Tree of Life, the power that those trees received was extremely great. It was far more powerful than the one that fought against Lu Xuan back then.
A group of Virtualized realm cultivators were fighting with their lives on the outside. Those who could still fight were standing straight, while those who were injured or poisoned were protected in the middle, watching this scene in fear.
The rumbling elemental force explosions were incessant. The madly dancing branches had turned into a demonic claw that took away lives. Even the Origin Realm martial artists had to pick up the weapons in their hands and desperately slashed at the oncoming branches. Screams could be heard from time to time. Those martial artists who were pierced by the branches controlled by Sikong Tiancai had almost instantly lost their combat power. Those who were slightly stronger would be severely injured, while those who were weaker would die instantly and their life force would be sucked dry.
No matter how intense the battle outside was, he paid no attention to it at that moment. He simply held Ruo Xiangyi tightly in his arms. It was only at that moment that he realized how much he loved the woman in his arms. His love for her was no less than anyone else's.
He wanted to save her!
"Xiangyi, I have a detoxification spiritual pill here. Hurry up and take it. Once you take this pill, you will definitely be fine." Lu Xuan quickly took out the Golden Crow Poison Pill and stuffed it into Ruo Xiangyi's hand. There was only one spiritual pill. After giving it to Ruo Xiangyi, Lu Xuan didn't have the time to think about what would happen to Zhao Bing`er. If he didn't save Ruo Xiangyi now, he wouldn't have another chance.
Holding the pill, Ruo Xiangyi raised her head and met Lu Xuan's anxious eyes, "If that's the case, then let Sister Bing`er take it first."
Lu Xuan was evasive, "Bing`er … I can give it to her later. Hurry up and take it first."
Ruo Xiangyi was smart. When she saw Lu Xuan's expression, she understood. If Lu Xuan really had enough detoxification spiritual pills, then he would have fed them to her long ago. Why would he wait until now?
Ruo Xiangyi understood her own situation very well. Now that her body had been completely destroyed by the poison, even if the poison in her body was removed, it wouldn't be able to save her. Unless it was a pill like the Life and Death Nirvana Pill, which could seize the fortune of heaven and earth, why would she waste this pill?
Ruo Xiangyi struggled to push Lu Xuan away. She struggled to walk in front of Zhao Bing`er. Under Lu Xuan's shocked gaze, she stuffed the pill into Zhao Bing`er's mouth.
"Xiangyi, you …" Lu Xuan didn't know what to say. Ruo Xiangyi's choice was practically giving Zhao Bing`er the only life-saving straw.
Ruo Xiangyi's face became even redder, and she revealed a bright smile, "Sister Bing`er cultivates an ice-type cultivation method, so the poison won't spread quickly. This pill can still save her, but giving it to me will only be a waste. You don't need to blame yourself, this is my own choice. I'm already very happy that you're willing to give me the only life-saving spiritual pill at this time."
Lu Xuan couldn't say anything. He could only hug Ruo Xiangyi tightly. He rarely shed tears, but at this moment, the rims of his eyes were a little sour.
Lu Xuan's warm embrace made Ruo Xiangyi feel an unprecedented sense of security. However, she felt her body getting colder and colder. Lu Xuan's embrace wasn't enough to expel this trace of coldness. She knew that the god of death was already waving at her.
"If I remember correctly, this should be the first time you've hugged me like this." Ruo Xiangyi's voice trembled, and even her body began to tremble, "Lu Xuan, hug me tightly, I'm cold."
Lu Xuan didn't say anything, but he hugged Ruo Xiangyi even tighter. It was as if he was worried that she would run away, and he wanted to completely integrate her into his body.
"Lu Xuan, I'm probably going to die soon. Before that, can you … can you tell me, have you ever loved me?" Ruo Xiangyi trembled even more violently, but she still held on. She didn't want to die like this. She hadn't felt enough of the warmth of Lu Xuan's embrace.
"Love, in the past, in the present, and in the future!" Lu Xuan replied. A hot teardrop fell from the corner of his eye. He finally cried.
He finally received a satisfactory answer. Ruo Xiangyi was satisfied. It was just that this moment of love was so short, but it was precisely because it was so short that it seemed so precious.
"Wait, wait for me to die, then take, take Sister Bing 'er and the others and escape. You can't die here. Do you hear me? I, I don't need you to accompany me down there. I, I want you to live well." Ruo Xiangyi's breathing became more and more intense, as if she could stop breathing at any time.
"No, you won't die." Lu Xuan took out an ancient book in a panic and presented it to Ruo Xiangyi as if he was presenting a treasure. "Look, I've taken out the second half of the Primal Peony Divine Cultivation Method that you wanted. You must live well. With your talent, you will definitely become someone like the Peony Fairy."
Looking at the second half of the Primal Peony Divine Cultivation Method, Ruo Xiangyi smiled happily. Sure enough, Lu Xuan loved her and didn't forget her. He still remembered that she wanted the second half of the cultivation method.
With a satisfied smile, Ruo Xiangyi lay in Lu Xuan's arms and fell asleep peacefully. When she woke up, she would be able to see Lu Xuan again.
"Xiangyi, Xiangyi?" Lu Xuan gently shook the beauty in his arms, but Ruo Xiangyi ignored him.
"Xiangyi, Xiangyi!" Lu Xuan let out a heart-wrenching cry, as if he wanted to wake the sleeping beauty in his arms. But it was all in vain.
Xiangyi, Xiangyi, if you don't abandon me, I will live and die with you.
"Ahhhhh!" With Ruo Xiangyi's body in his arms, Lu Xuan stood up and roared at the sky. His lover had died just like that. This wasn't the first time that Lu Xuan had seen a life and death separation, but it was the first time that someone he loved had passed away. The pain of a life and death separation could only be understood after experiencing it for himself.
"What are you screaming for? Since you're in so much pain, why don't you go and accompany her? Death will be the end of all troubles." Sikong Tiancai sneered.
Lu Xuan turned his head and stared at Sikong Tiancai. The poison that Ruo Xiangyi had been poisoned with was the Sikong family's poison, and at this moment, the culprit was right in front of him!
Ruo Xiangyi's body was gently put down by Lu Xuan. She looked no different from when she was unconscious, but there was no longer a trace of breath.
"Sikong Tiancai, I want your life!" Lu Xuan shouted, enunciating each word. As soon as his voice fell, he instantly attacked Sikong Tiancai!
He casually performed the Falling Star Technique. At this moment, he seemed to have turned into a meteor that fell from the sky, shooting out with an unparalleled force.
"Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!" Sikong Tiancai shouted and waved his right hand that was holding the Tree of Life. In an instant, countless huge branches came crashing down at Lu Xuan.
"Break!" Lu Xuan shouted angrily. He did not stop attacking with his sword and plunged into the center of Sikong Tiancai's attack. At this moment, his killing intent was unprecedentedly strong. Even if he were to chop Sikong Tiancai into minced meat, it would not make up for the pain in his heart.
Seeing this, Zhao Ying could not help but scream, "Lu Xuan, watch out!"
Although Sikong Tiancai only had the strength of second-layer Great Void Stage, the strength that he could display was definitely ranked in the top three among so many people. It was all because of the piece of wood attribute treasure in his hand. Now that Lu Xuan was provoked by Sikong Tiancai out of anger, he attacked Sikong Tiancai without thinking, which was extremely dangerous.
Seeing that Lu Xuan dared to fight him head-on, Sikong Tiancai was extremely surprised. This Lu Xuan is simply courting death. If Lu Xuan only fought him from the outside, Sikong Tiancai would not be able to do anything to him in a short period of time with his fire attribute cultivation method. However, he must kill Lu Xuan now!
"Haha, kid, die! Boundless Falling Wood! " Sikong Tiancai laughed maniacally and activated the Tree of Life with all of his Yuanli. Extremely pure Yuanli of the wood element burst out all of a sudden, forming countless solidified leaves that shot towards Lu Xuan. Every single leaf was imbued with immense power, capable of easily cutting a human body open.
The countless branches instantly trapped Lu Xuan, while the countless sharp leaves rapidly slashed at Lu Xuan. However, Lu Xuan did not even have a place to hide. There was nothing he could do apart from fighting them head-on. At this moment, Sikong Tiancai in the Wood World was like Lu Xuan in the Desert World and the Flame World!
