The Thunder Cliff Tree immediately turned sinister and terrifying in front of Xiao Chen. Black aura wriggled around it, looking like a ferocious beast.
However, the Thunder Cliff Tree had already gone berserk. When it sensed the aura of the Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment on Xiao Chen, it went berserk. This was its life-saving tonic.
Xiao Chen pulled back the Thunder Cliff Tree's heart, which nearly leaped out of his chest. Then, he stretched out his hand above the valley.
Either die or obtain the opportunity.
Five …
A bright light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as he thought of the reason. This one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King was probably attracted by the aura of the Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment.
"Whoosh!"
"After it! Even if I have to chase it to the ends of the world, I will make this fellow spit it out! " Chu Feng felt incredibly frustrated. He and Fang Shaobai were the ones who discovered this Thunder Cliff Tree. It should have belonged to the two of them in the first place.
"This is not a coincidence!"
Chu Feng thought about something. In the first place, he mainly cultivated the Thunder Dao and grasped the Thunder Dao Domain. Now that he had returned to his peak, he did not fear this severely injured Thunder Cliff Tree.
"Rumble …!"
Go all out!
Right now, Xiao Chen did not know what his chances were. However, it did not matter whether he advanced or retreated.
Originally, he thought that even if someone tried to reap the benefits, that person would not be able to quickly subdue the Thunder Cliff Tree. Instead, that person might even help them block the Thunder Cliff Tree.
Mu Yunzhu could not help but ask when he saw Gu Yuhan's hand trembling as he held the flute with an exceptionally unsightly expression.
For the next ten years, one hundred years, or even a thousand years, the Thunder Cliff Tree would continuously absorb lightning-attributed energy. A tribulation mark would be left on the Thunder Cliff Tree. Xiao Chen looked carefully and saw more than one hundred tribulation marks densely packed on the Thunder Cliff Tree.
Xiao Chen felt like an evil ferocious beast was staring at him. He found this feeling very unbearable. He was not unfamiliar with this feeling.
Road Turning Around!
Xiao Chen had made many decisions in the past. Most of the time, he would choose to take a gamble. However, when he was not confident, he would choose to retreat.
With a cold shout, Xiao Chen's battle hunger blazed like a fierce fire, breaking the heavy aura in the surroundings.
A brilliant light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as he tore off the bedsheet with his right hand. The messy bedsheet turned into a saber as he executed Xiao Chen's peak attack.
Their advantage was that they were familiar with the operating rules of this world and were well-versed in the surroundings. They were adept at escaping, and a moment of carelessness would allow them to escape.
Six …
His heart was beating faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. Xiao Chen remained unmoved, his expression cold.
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly as he sensed the power of heaven and earth locking onto him. The Thunder Cliff Tree searched around and finally found Xiao Chen at the top of the mountain.
The Thunder Cliff Tree's aura was greatly weakened. However, in this desperate situation, he only paused for a moment before unleashing all of his ferocious nature.
Rumble!
Martial Dao cultivation was like rowing a boat against the current. If one did not advance, they would fall back. On the path of cultivation, everyone would encounter fortuitous encounters. A single decision that seemed to take only an instant could change one's entire life.
The Universe Origin Sect's Chu Feng muttered with an extremely sullen expression, "I only saw an afterimage. However, I think that it is definitely him. Aside from him, no one else's afterimage would have the silhouette of a bedsheet."
Clearly, this was an outstanding talent that the various factions' false Emperors or half-step Sovereign Emperors believed could hold their own against a false Emperor. At this point, the weaker ones no longer qualified to compete for this Herb King.
The lingering lightning blocked the Thunder Cliff Tree's connection to the world, crippling it by half. "Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
Spiritual light flickered, and electricity crackled endlessly at the bottom of the valley. Strands of purplish-black lightning lingered, radiating a startling baleful aura.
Three! Two! One!
"It's that strange person in the bedsheet!"
Xiao Chen could clearly sense that this Thunder Cliff Tree's aura was weak. The spiritual light it gave off was much weaker than when Xiao Chen saw it two days ago.
Immediately, everyone felt incredibly frustrated. For two days, they had fought a battle of wits and courage with this Thunder Cliff Tree, exhausting themselves. Yet, in the end, that strange person easily collected it.
Unexpectedly, when the seven landed, aside from some lingering aura, they could no longer see that person or the Thunder Cliff Tree.
Just at this moment, miserable cries came from deep underground. Cracks immediately appeared in the sky, and the entire herb field shook continuously.
The seven's expressions changed drastically. Yuan Zhen said sullenly, "Everyone, we can no longer remain in this herb field."
After the Thunder Cliff Tree fell to the bottom of the valley, anxiety spread in the air. A faint whirlpool formed. "Whoosh!" The entire valley lost its lifeforce. All the flowers and plants withered without exception.
The outstanding talents of the various factions were still behind the Thunder Cliff Tree. They would soon catch up.
Xiao Chen snorted coldly. Then, he firmly grabbed the Thunder Cliff Tree, which had lost its ferocious nature, and left in a flash.
As Xiao Chen got closer to the Thunder Cliff Tree, time passed quickly. He only had three seconds left.
A loud sound rang out, and that one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King fell to the bottom of the valley.
"Whoosh!"
Seven …
A battle raged in Xiao Chen's mind. However, it only lasted for an instant. In that instant, he made his decision.
The Thunder Cliff Tree grew excited. It finally discovered the source of the Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment.
The Herb Kings in Paradise were all ferocious and tainted with a demonic nature. They were very different from those in the outside world.
However …
The other six did not have much time to think. They looked at the crack in the sky and hesitated for a moment before catching up to Yuan Zhen, leaving quickly.
If Xiao Chen could not subdue this Thunder Cliff Tree in ten breaths, the people chasing after him would catch up. With so many false Emperors watching, it would be practically impossible for him to leave.
When Mu Yunzhu saw the situation, he did not ask any further. However, he thought to himself, There must be more to this than meets the eye.
Firmament's Rage, covering the sky with one hand!
"Damn it!"
They did not have complete souls, but they were sentient. Clearly, they knew to flee after being injured.
Feeling anxious, all of them brought out their trump cards and sped up, rushing towards the valley.
After glancing around, Xiao Chen focused his attention on the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King.
A colossal hand containing the rage of a Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon appeared and covered the sky. Night enveloped the area as the back of the hand blocked the descending purple lightning.
Before the Thunder Cliff Tree could execute its killing move, this saber light struck it. It lost its ferocious nature and fell to the bottom of the valley.
The fluctuation of aura was like a heartbeat. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The Thunder Cliff Tree actually synchronized with Xiao Chen's heartbeat.
After two seconds, many figures descended. There were the Profound Heaven Holy Land's Mu Yunzhu and Gu Yuhan, the Universe Origin Sect's Chu Feng and Fang Shaobai, the Bushin Palace's Xiao Hou Zun and Bai Yunfei, and the Hidden Spirit Temple's Yuan Zhen.
"Bang!"
The Divine Seal in his Soul Pool activated, and Xiao Chen leaped out. Wrapped in a bedsheet, he launched himself at the ferocious Thunder Cliff Tree.
Xiao Chen entered deep thought. After a while, he asked, "It is injured?"
"Everyone, are we going to chase or not?"
The problem is, why did it come to where I am? Is it a coincidence or on purpose?
When the Thunder Cliff Tree pounced over, it kicked up lightning everywhere and the pitch-black sky. Bolts of purple-black lightning descended, and a terrifying aura spread out in all directions as if a peerless ferocious beast was about to appear.
Gu Yuhan said calmly, suppressing the rage in his heart.
At this moment, the Thunder Cliff Tree's trunk was about one meter tall, looking like a small tree. The branches branched off, and purple leaves grew on the branches, looking like refined iron.
Without even a ten percent chance of success, it would be unwise to risk it.
At this moment, intense pain spread through Xiao Chen's entire body. At the last second, he activated all the potential in his body, and his aura erupted.
"Humph!"
Bang! "
At that time, Xiao Chen might lose his Dao and his life before he could even retreat.
Although Xiao Chen did not fear false Emperors, he would not be able to protect himself if surrounded.
"Eight …"
There was definitely something strange going on. Xiao Chen grew cautious as he spread his arms. He left a faint purple mark where he stood. Then, his figure appeared above the valley, temporarily avoiding it.
After the Thunder Cliff Tree absorbed the remnant Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment's Medicinal Energy, its body became brighter.
That was why the Thunder Cliff Tree had run to this desolate land to treat its injuries and recover its strength. If Xiao Chen had not fallen for the Thunder Cliff Tree's trick, this would not have happened.
Gu Yuhan and the others had been traveling quickly and had already unleashed their full power several times. Now that they were one second late, it would be difficult for them to catch up.
However, compared to the severe injuries the Thunder Cliff Tree suffered, it was still a drop in the bucket, far from sufficient.
Who could not be angry?
Four …
When Gu Yuhan looked into the distance, he saw several strong auras behind the Medicine King.
Although Xiao Chen had said ten seconds, he had only given himself eight seconds to unleash his killing move in advance. Under the heavy pressure, the Heartbreaking Style had surpassed its peak.
When Xiao Chen saw it clearly, his heart skipped a beat. This was actually a Thunder Cliff Tree.
Ten …
The most important thing was to be decisive and not hesitate.
"What's going on?"
Gu Yuhan could only watch from afar and see if he could get lucky.
Gu Yuhan's hand faced the sky, and his palm faced the ground.
A flash of saber light moved very quickly, appearing only for an instant.
Gu Yuhan knew that Xiao Chen must have fooled him two days ago. The other party should be a spent force.
The instant the Thunder Cliff Tree came into contact, Xiao Chen roared and suddenly accelerated. He shouted out the final three seconds in his mind.
Then, this colossal hand grabbed all the purple-black lightning in the surroundings. In the next moment, it exploded. The lightning mixed with the saber light tore through the world, lingering there.
It was not an easy task to subdue the Herb King in this Herb Field. The combat prowess that a ten-thousand-year-old Medicine King could bring out was already comparable to that of a half-step Sovereign Emperor. Its only weakness was that it was not flexible and did not know Martial Techniques.
The seven appeared almost at the same time. Their expressions were somewhat unsightly. Before they rushed over, they had sensed the fluctuations of battle.
Of the seven, only the Hidden Spirit Temple's Yuan Zhen looked into the distance with a contemplative expression.
The branches and leaves on the Medicine King's body trembled, baring fangs and brandishing claws. The ferocious nature that it burst out with was no weaker than a false Emperor's.
"Senior Brother Gu, what's wrong?"
This Medicine King should have grown at the top of the Thunder Cliff, receiving the baptism of the Thunder Dao. The moment it was born, it would suffer a one-thousand-day lightning tribulation and survive for three years.
That one-hundred-thousand-year-old Medicine King actually took the initiative to fly towards Xiao Chen after he entered closed-door cultivation for two days.
To think that a Spirit Herb wanted to swallow me. How reckless!
Flawless Dao, using thoughts as a saber, Heartbreaking Stance!
Nine …
"Whoosh!"
"It's fine."
That Thunder Cliff Tree seemed like a gourmet that saw a delicacy as it launched itself at Xiao Chen.
After Yuan Zhen finished speaking, he turned around and left with a somewhat grave expression.
This was indeed true. This desolate valley, which was originally devoid of life, only had its aura exuding lifeforce. Hundreds of flowers bloomed in this valley. This showed how horrifying the Medicine's effects were.
