No one knew how long this forest had been there. Trees over a hundred meters tall were everywhere, each one so thick that it would take several people to wrap their arms around it. The larger ones were three to four hundred meters tall, so thick that they looked like giant pillars supporting the sky.
Chen Zong and the core disciple of the True Yang Sect were engaged in a fierce battle of life and death. Every strike and punch was done with all of their strength, showing no mercy.
The sword light was sharp, and the fist prints were violent.
The ground cracked, and the trees were shattered. The two of them used their movement techniques to dodge. Everywhere they passed, it was as if a violent beast was wreaking havoc. Nothing could stop them.
Both of their fists punched out again and again, turning into countless streams of flames that surrounded them. Beams of dazzling silver sword light shuttled through the streams of flames, stabbing at the True Yang Sect disciple. However, they could not completely pierce him. Every time they were about to hit, they would be deflected by an invisible force.
A loud boom, mixed with the sound of metal clashing and True Power surging, turned into a storm that destroyed everything around them.
The violent sound turned into a shock wave. When the trees dozens of meters away were swept past, they seemed to be cut by invisible blades, breaking and collapsing one after another.
Ordinary late-stage True Martial Realm martial artists would not dare to approach a battle of this level, or else they might be killed by the shockwaves.
The two of them crushed their way forward. Although Chen Zong was inferior to his opponent in terms of battle prowess, he was able to enter that state under pressure. With the support of his domineering will, Chen Zong's strength also increased, allowing him to fight head-on with his opponent.
The True Yang Sect disciple became more and more shocked as he fought. Chen Zong's performance was too tenacious. He was clearly inferior to him, but he could fight with him to this extent.
"Since that's the case, I can only use a secret technique to kill you."
"Yang Swallowing Transformation!" With a roar, a cluster of light suddenly lit up in the sky. The cluster of light was as red as a fireball, but it was also like a small sun suspended in the air. It wantonly emitted a shocking light and heat, shining in all directions, causing the temperature within a radius of several hundred meters to rapidly rise. It was as if it was being roasted by the flames of an oven.
The Blazing Sun Fireball the size of a human head fell from the sky. The True Yang Sect disciple opened his mouth and swallowed the Blazing Sun Fireball into his stomach.
His entire body emitted an even more dazzling crimson light, and an astonishingly high temperature spread out. Countless white auras appeared in the air, spiraling upwards. The trees within a few hundred meters seemed to be roasted by a raging fire, their skin becoming wrinkled and charred.
The terrible power made Chen Zong unable to get close. He could only retreat and use his two swords to cut out hundreds of silver sword lights. However, the hundreds of powerful sword lights seemed to melt and dissipate.
"When I use the Yang-Swallowing Transformation, my battle prowess can reach the late-stage of the three-star level. Your time of death has come." The True Yang Sect's disciple roared. Even his voice was terrifyingly hot.
The difference between a middle three-star warrior and an early three-star warrior was quite obvious. If it weren't for Chen Zong's special situation, he would have been defeated long ago. The difference between a late three-star warrior and an early three-star warrior was even more obvious.
The terrifyingly high temperature spread out. The True Yang Sect's disciple gathered all of his power into his right fist and punched out.
Like a red flaming dragon breaking through the sky, the terrifyingly high temperature brought with it a shocking pressure. It squeezed the air in front of him crazily, causing a series of explosions. Chen Zong felt suffocated, and there was no way for him to dodge.
With a bang, Chen Zong crossed his two swords to block, but his entire body was blown back hundreds of meters. His back crashed into a huge ancient tree that was more than five hundred meters tall. All of his bones made a crisp sound, as if they were broken.
"Die!" The True Yang Sect's disciple leaped up and turned into a torrent of flames. It was like a raging sun falling from the sky, bringing with it endless heat and destruction. The power of the rank two pseudo spiritual weapon gloves was also completely released.
It was too fast, and it was extremely ferocious. It made Chen Zong feel like he was about to die.
Chen Zong shook his back. His bones and tendons sounded at the same time. His qi and blood surged, and the muscles on his back exerted force together. It made Chen Zong bounce up instantly, and all of his power was gathered at that moment.
The sword in his left hand returned to its scabbard, and his sword finger landed on the sword in his right hand. He quickly swiped it, and a cold light bloomed like a star, eventually gathering at the tip of the sword. It bloomed with an unparalleled sharpness, as if nothing in the world could stop it.
Secret Sword … Point Star!
This sword had gathered all of Chen Zong's power and compressed it into a single point using a special method. It contained an extremely horrifying power and sharpness, and then activated the power of the longsword itself.
With a shake of his wrist, the longsword pierced through the air and pierced towards the raging sun that was coming at him with a destructive force.
It was unbreakable, and there was nothing it couldn't break!
Time seemed to have slowed down by ten times. Chen Zong's sword had disappeared, and only a tiny dot of starlight remained, shooting forward and colliding with the raging sun.
There was no sound. It was very strange, and it distorted everyone's five senses.
The raging sun paused for a moment, and was directly pierced through by the starlight. A chill spread from the bottom of his heart, and the shadow of death loomed over him. A trace of fear flashed through the Zhenyang Sect disciple's eyes that were covered in flames, and he quickly forced his body to move.
Forcefully moving his body with all of his power would immediately cause his internal organs to be injured. However, for the sake of survival, these injuries could be endured. He also believed that as long as his attack hit Chen Zong, he would definitely die.
Immediately, an intense pain came from his shoulder. It was as if a sword had pierced through it, and the sword was twisting and twisting. The Zhenyang Sect disciple trembled all over, and the raging sun that was pierced through also fluctuated, almost collapsing.
The moment the raging sun collapsed, it also struck Chen Zong. Chen Zong activated his Vajra Bone and drew his sword with his left hand to block, but he was forced back without any resistance. Like a meteor falling from the sky, he slammed heavily into a huge ancient tree behind him.
This ancient tree had been growing for thousands of years. Its body was huge and tough, but Chen Zong crashed into it in an instant. He pierced through the huge tree trunk and sank deep into the huge tree trunk. Blazing streams of fire flew over the tree trunk and scorched the surface of the tree black.
The streams of fire dispersed, revealing the ravaged and trampled surroundings. It was a ghastly sight.
The Zhenyang Sect disciple landed on the ground and staggered. His face was pale, and his eyes were filled with exhaustion. His left shoulder had been pierced through, and blood flowed endlessly. Moreover, it was twitching constantly, and the remnant sword Qi within the wound wreaked havoc, making it difficult to expel.
Glancing at the hole in the tree, the Qi within had become extremely weak, like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment. The Zhenyang Sect disciple endured his injuries and exhaustion, throwing out another punch. A fist the size of a human head pierced through the air and blasted into the hole in the tree, producing a dull explosion. The weak Qi completely vanished.
Immediately afterwards, the Zhenyang Sect disciple hurriedly took out a pill and consumed it. He used his movement technique to quickly leave, because he could sense a powerful Qi rapidly approaching. In his current situation, he had less than ten percent of his strength left, so he was unable to fight anymore. Leaving was the best choice.
As for Chen Zong, he believed that he would definitely die from his previous attack. Even if he did not die, a follow-up punch would be enough to kill him. This was his confidence in his own strength.
Just as the Zhenyang Sect disciple left, a graceful figure quickly approached him and stopped. She wore a veil, and her face was covered. Her eyes were as clear as water. It was a disciple of the Green Caltrop Sect.
"Who's fighting here?" A melodious voice rang out. Her beautiful eyes swept across the area, and she instantly determined the situation of the fierce battle here.
There were two people fighting. One cultivated Fire Force, which was scorching hot, while the other cultivated Sword Technique, which was sharp and domineering.
After the female disciple of the Green Caltrop Sect scanned the area, she looked at the hole in the giant ancient tree. However, it was pitch black inside. She seemed to be able to see something, but it was very blurry. She did not sense any Qi fluctuations, so she did not investigate further.
After finding nothing else, the female disciple of the Green Caltrop Sect used her movement technique and quickly left.
A moment later, Chen Zong rushed out of the hole in the tree in a flash.
His sword robe was tattered, and there were many burn marks. Just from this alone, one could tell that he had experienced a fierce battle.
However, the strange thing was that Chen Zong did not have any injuries on his body.
If the Zhenyang Sect disciple saw this, he would be extremely shocked. His two attacks did not kill Chen Zong, and he did not even have any injuries.
This was impossible!
Indeed, when Chen Zong was struck by the opponent's tyrannical attack, he had already suffered a very heavy injury. Fortunately, the Starlight Sword had weakened the power of the opponent's attack by quite a bit, otherwise, the consequences would have been even more severe.
As for the weak Qi, if Chen Zong did not use his strength, his Qi would naturally be restrained.
Then, the Zhenyang Sect disciple added another punch, worsening Chen Zong's injury.
However, Chen Zong's body was strong, and he could still withstand this kind of injury. It would just take a long time for him to recover slowly.
No one would have thought that there would be such a rare treasure hidden in this huge tree.
The Thousand-Year Treeheart!
The birth of the Thousand-Year Treeheart required a tree that was at least a thousand years old. In addition, not all Thousand-Year Ancient Trees could be born. It had to be an ancient tree with vigorous vitality, and it was not 100%.
After Chen Zong was bombarded into the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree, he was punched even deeper. His back touched the Thousand-Year Treeheart, and the Thousand-Year Treeheart was absorbed into Chen Zong's body.
The Thousand-Year Treeheart was the life essence of the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree. It could not rapidly increase one's cultivation base, nor could it directly increase one's strength. Its only function was to contain an astonishing amount of vitality. When absorbed into one's body, one's body would be constantly nourished, slowly becoming more outstanding, invisibly increasing the strength of one's physique, and rapidly recovering from injuries.
Chen Zong's heavy injuries could be healed thanks to the power of the Thousand-Year Treeheart.
After Chen Zong left the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree, the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree began to change. It slowly shrank and withered, as if thousands of years of time had been condensed into a short period of time, experiencing the changes of aging.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the giant Thousand-Year Ancient Tree had completely withered, becoming a dozen meters tall, lifeless and lifeless.
The Thousand-Year Treeheart was the life essence of the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree. After being absorbed into Chen Zong's body and taken away, the Thousand-Year Ancient Tree was as good as dead.
Although it was a pity, Chen Zong could not put the Thousand-Year Treeheart back. This thing was a treasure, and it had a great effect on him. Although it could not increase his strength, it could increase his survivability by several times.
Light injuries could be healed instantly, and heavy injuries could also be healed in a short time.
