Lu Xuan was surrounded by Sikong Tiancai. He was surrounded by green leaves, but they were filled with a strong killing intent.
"Sword Principle Realm!" Lu Xuan roared furiously. An extremely powerful Mighty Force soared into the sky and boundless sword qi surrounded him, forming a world of swords. Huo Li, who was in the Smoky Sword, also sensed Lu Xuan's anger. A strong Ignis Force appeared and dyed the entire Sword Principle Realm fiery red. Although it was no longer a land of fire and Huo Li's strength was greatly reduced, wood gave birth to fire, so Huo Li could use a part of the Wood Force here.
However, it was not enough!
Sikong Tiancai shouted. He mobilized all of the Tree of Life's power. The power was no longer scattered, but all concentrated on Lu Xuan. At that moment, Lu Xuan was no longer fighting Sikong Tiancai. Instead, he was fighting the entire forest formed by the Tree of Life.
Countless leaves were cut by the sword aura and burned by the flames. However, even more leaves were able to break through Lu Xuan's formidable defenses and make their way in.
"Destruction!" As Lu Xuan roared again, a violent aura suddenly descended. Although the Force of Destruction was not as strong as Lu Xuan's Sword Principle, it was born to destroy. In terms of destructiveness, it was even stronger than the Sword Principle. The leaves that were swept by the Force of Destruction were instantly crushed into dust, leaving not a trace behind.
"You have quite a lot of tricks up your sleeves." Sikong Tiancai glared at Lu Xuan coldly. He finally understood why Dong Ruyi, a Sixth-Tier Grand Void Stage powerhouse, was so fearful of Lu Xuan. However, to him, Lu Xuan was only slightly more troublesome to deal with.
"A single tree can form a forest!" Sikong Tiancai launched another attack. A small sapling suddenly sprouted from the ground next to Lu Xuan. However, it only lasted for a split second before the sapling grew rapidly. Countless branches and leaves spread out, dancing like a demon as it attacked Lu Xuan in a frenzy.
Sikong Tiancai's attacks became more and more powerful, and Lu Xuan could not help but be forced to retreat. He seemed to be unable to withstand the attacks, and the space in which he could move was compressed again. It would only take a moment for him to be cornered and killed by Sikong Tiancai.
At that moment, Lu Xuan had no choice but to fight with his life on the line. He raised the Mengchen Sword up high, and an intense beam of light shone. The Field of Swordsmanship that shrouded him instantly melded with that beam of light, as well as the boundless power of Li Fire. At that moment, Lu Xuan no longer seemed to be holding a sword in his hand, but rather a blazing sun.
"Glorious Sun!"
As Lu Xuan roared, the Scorching Sun exploded. Boundless sword qi shot out in all directions along with the power of flames. That sword contained the power of the way of the sword, the power of destruction, the power of fire, and the power of the law of time. Its power was second only to the nine levels of the Heaven Sword. However, the Oneness of Heaven and Man and the Meteor Chasing the Moon were extremely powerful martial arts techniques for single-target attacks. They might not have been as useful as the Glorious Sun at that moment.
Even the Grand Void Stage experts who were fighting could not help but look at the huge commotion. Lu Xuan's participation greatly reduced the pressure on Long Boming and the others. After all, Lu Xuan had single-handedly resisted the extremely powerful Sikong Tiancai. Unfortunately, Lu Xuan seemed to be unable to hold on any longer.
The Glorious Sun was finally able to break through Sikong Tiancai's attack. However, Lu Xuan had expended a great deal of his power, especially since the Sword Will Realm that he had conjured exploded along with the Glorious Sun at that moment, which had injured his mind.
On the other hand, although Sikong Tiancai had suffered some damage, he recovered in an instant as the life force from the Tree of Life flowed into his body. Although the Tree of Life did not have the powerful defensive power of the Chaotic Soil, nor did it have the explosive power and destructive power of the Ignis Essence, the recovery power it brought was incomparable to the other two.
"Out of strength? But I'm not going to let you go. " Sikong Tiancai sneered and waved his hand. Boundless power swept out again, enveloping Lu Xuan. This was the benefit of controlling a treasure. One's power was endless, and they could use it as they pleased.
"Senior sister, how should we deal with him?" Lu Xuan had no choice but to ask Bing Ling for a countermeasure. He finally understood how Dong Ruyi and the others felt when they faced him.
"He has the Tree of Life. Although his attack power is not ridiculously strong, his recovery power is unmatched by anyone here. If we want to win against him, we must leave the Wood World," Bing Ling said. She was the one who set up the Tree of Life, so she naturally knew how powerful it was.
Lu Xuan gritted his teeth. He obviously knew that leaving this place was the best choice, but now that everyone was trapped here, how could he escape? Even if he could escape in a desperate situation, what about Zhao Ying, Zhao Binger, and Chen Xiaohan? He had already lost a loved one, and he did not want to lose another one!
Seeing that Sikong Tiancai's attack was about to descend again, Lu Xuan could not avoid it. He could only raise his sword to block it. However, at this moment, a low roar was heard, "Sky Burning Seal!"
An incomparably huge seal with raging flames suddenly descended from the sky. Such a powerful aura caused everyone to look sideways again. With a loud bang, the seal fiercely smashed onto the Wood Element Boundary that Sikong Tiancai had set up.
Crack!
With a crisp sound, the Wood Element Boundary that trapped Lu Xuan was forcefully broken. Without any hesitation, Lu Xuan seized the opportunity and instantly escaped.
"Nangong Lie!" Sikong Tiancai stared at the person in the sky and shouted.
Without a doubt, the person who could make the Sky Burning Seal so powerful was the Third Master of the Nangong Clan, Nangong Lie. Nangong Yang had been hoping that Nangong Lie would come to save them, but he did not expect that it would be Lu Xuan. Nangong Lie had finally arrived.
"Third Brother, you're finally here!" Nangong Yang was overjoyed. "The Sikong Clan finally lost their patience and attacked us. They even joined forces with the Illusionary God Sect and the Soul Tribe to kill everyone from the Jiuhua Alliance and the Myriad Shark Island. Their appetite is not small."
In just a few words, Nangong Yang had explained most of the matter.
Nangong Lie nodded without batting an eyelid. He had already seen everything that was happening here and understood the general situation. However, he could not relax because he saw many familiar figures. Long Boming, He Ridi, and Lu Xuan. These three were all top-notch experts in his heart, but even with these people here, they were still at a disadvantage. One could imagine that the alliance of the Sikong Clan was definitely not that easy to deal with.
"Brother Lu, are you alright?" Nangong Lie asked.
Lu Xuan shook his head, but he was not in the mood to say anything. However, Nangong Lie's arrival was a good thing. The addition of an Eighth Level Grand Void Realm expert might be able to turn the situation around.
"Nangong Lie, I didn't expect you to be more than Sixth Level Grand Void Realm. It seems that the Nangong Clan has been hiding their strength?" Zuo Cen exclaimed as he looked at Nangong Lie. He was at the seventh-level Grand Void Stage, but he still could not see through Nangong Lie's strength. This undoubtedly proved that Nangong Lie was at least at the eighth-level Grand Void Stage.
Sikong Tiancai was taken aback when he heard that. Nangong Lie's arrival, coupled with his strength that exceeded everyone's expectations, was indeed a variable. But then, he snorted coldly and said, "I've long known that the Nangong Family has ulterior motives. So what if you hide your strength? In the face of absolute strength, everything else is but an illusion!"
"Nangong Lie, let's work together. I don't believe that we won't be able to defeat you with so many of us!" Long Boming shouted. The strength that Lu Xuan had displayed far exceeded his expectations. Now that Nangong Lie had joined the fray, Long Boming saw a glimmer of hope once again, despite not having much hope.
Nangong Lie nodded lightly, "Of course we'll work together. From now on, the Nangong Clan will break away from the Octagonal Sacred Palace and establish our own clan!"
Sikong Tiancai sneered, "Establishing our own clan? What a joke. Once I kill you and the rest of the Nangong Clan, I'm afraid you'll have no choice but to establish your own clan in the underworld. "
Nangong Lie ignored him and turned to Lu Xuan and said, "Brother Lu, Sikong Tiancai's strength is a little strange. Why don't we work together?"
Many people had a strange look in their eyes when they heard Nangong Lie address Lu Xuan as Brother Lu, especially Long Boming and Zhao Ying. In terms of seniority, Nangong Lie was in the same generation as Zhao Ying and Ye Wuheng, while Lu Xuan was a junior. They wondered how Lu Xuan managed to convince an Eighth Level Grand Void Realm expert to call him brother.
Under Nangong Lie's gaze, Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "Sikong Tiancai has a great treasure in his hands. It's impossible to kill him in this forest. We must retreat from here first and come up with a plan. However, I'm afraid they won't give us that chance."
Nangong Lie raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not know why Lu Xuan was so afraid of Sikong Tiancai, but Nangong Lie did not doubt Lu Xuan's words at all. He continued, "Even if we can't kill him, we'll still be no match for him if we work together. As long as we defeat him, we can split up our forces and defeat him one by one."
At that moment, Lu Xuan was suffering unspeakably. The incredible power that he displayed was all unleashed through treasures. However, the Tree of Life, a treasure of the wood element, was now in Sikong Tiancai's hands. How was he going to unleash that power?
Lu Xuan's eyes flickered slightly and he said in a deep voice, "Brother Nangong, you go first and buy me some time!"
Nangong Lie looked at Lu Xuan strangely. He did not know what Lu Xuan meant, but Lu Xuan did not explain, so he did not ask further. He just nodded and said, "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Lie suddenly turned around and formed a claw with his fingers. He attacked Sikong Tiancai in an instant. Sikong Tiancai was shocked and then he sneered. He activated the power of the Tree of Life and faced Nangong Lie fearlessly.
At the sight of this, Lu Xuan sat down with his legs crossed without hesitation. He wanted this moment for nothing but to make a breakthrough!
