Countless branches and leaves of death wrapped around the fiery body in the air, pulling it down like black lightning.
They were drowned in countless branches and vines in an instant. The towering divine tree wrapped around them as if to devour the two of them alive.
Many great monsters and humans had experienced the same thing before, but none of them were as shocked as what they were experiencing now. That was because the trees of death were all going for one person, which gave many a chance to escape. They all rushed out of the canyon in a frenzy.
"He really has a death wish." Tan Zimo of the Violet Heavenly Palace said when he saw what was happening. Was he really going to give up his life for a woman?
Ye Futian had challenged the Violet Heavenly Palace. While they were on opposing sides, he was indeed very powerful and had extraordinary talents. Yet, he still had a death wish.
The Goddess of Brahma's Pure Sky sighed when she saw what was happening. What a pity. Was he doing it for a woman?
Such feelings were respectable, but then again, why did he have to give up his life?
Cultivation was not easy, and it was even more so for someone of Ye Futian's level and talents.
Qi Xuangang and the others all looked extremely grim. They were unable to stop the tree, and even Emperor Xia was unable to do anything about it.
They all walked towards the tree of death. Qi Xuangang lashed out with both hands, shattering the branches and vines on the outside in a frenzy, but he was unable to get in.
Yaya stepped in the air, and her sword flew in the air. A towering sword matrix appeared beneath her feet. Her face was as cold as frost as she lashed out with the sword matrix in her hand. Yet, just like Qi Xuangang, she was unable to break through the tree. The branches and leaves that were cut off grew again in an instant.
She was rather reluctant to give up. Her sword fell again and again, yet she was still unable to get in.
Voom. The sound of the sword howling was heard as she charged inside with the sword matrix.
However, a might of the great path bound her right there and then. Yaya turned around and looked at Qi Xuangang.
Qi Xuangang shook his head at her and said, "His luck is very good on this trip."
Yaya was stunned and looked at Qi Xuangang. She knew that Qi Xuangang had some special powers that allowed him to observe one's fate. He must have seen it before they entered, and he had been calculating Ye Futian's fate.
Furthermore, she recalled the prophet's death not too long ago. Ye Futian's fate must have been very strong, and he would not have fallen here.
Thinking of this, she felt a little more at ease. However, she was still nervous as she stared in that direction.
Qi Xuangang also stopped the others who rushed forward. Although he did not know what trump card Ye Futian had, he knew that this disciple of his was very special. If he went in, there would be a chance of survival, but if the others rushed in to save him, they probably would not be able to return.
At that moment, Ye Futian's body was buried within the Tree of Death. Countless deathly auras and branches lashed at him. Terrifying might of the Flames of the Way burst from Ye Futian's body. He even made use of the power of the Fire Spirit Orb in his Life Palace to burn the branches of death in a frenzy.
A terrifying fire domain appeared around his body, and his eyes turned into flaming pupils.
At that moment, that statue-like stalwart figure seemed to have many arms on its body, grabbing at Xia Qingyuan, who was protected by Ye Futian. It actually broke through the shackles of the flame will and moved forward, continuing to sweep towards Xia Qingyuan.
Even after being buried for so many years, he still had such a strong will to live.
"Boom!"
Ye Futian's eyes were burning, and terrifying branches and leaves burst from his body. In an instant, the green will enveloped the inner space. Rustling sounds were heard as the Divine Tree of Life appeared on his body, filled with endless will of life.
"If you want to live, then come at me." Ye Futian's eyes were cold. The branches and leaves sensed it in an instant and pounced at Ye Futian in a frenzy. Boundless deathly aura surged into his body, and the vines of death pierced into the World Tree, greedily trying to absorb the will of life within Ye Futian's Life Spirit.
The World Tree swayed and shone with dazzling divine light. When the will of death descended, it was assimilated and devoured in an instant, as if it was assimilated into Ye Futian's Life Spirit.
Xia Qingyuan, who was under Ye Futian's protection, was shocked to see that. She had lost all hope, but she was not sad, as she thought that they would all be devoured.
However, she saw that Ye Futian's Life Spirit was devouring the will of death within the Tree of Death.
"So this is his Life Spirit," Xia Qingyuan thought to herself. It was like a divine tree fighting against the Tree of Death.
The deathly aura was sucked into Ye Futian's body, and even the branches and leaves were devoured. The Tree of Death seemed to have a life of its own, and more branches and leaves lashed at Ye Futian in a frenzy.
More than that, the canyon shook violently at that moment. More branches and leaves of death sprouted from the depths of the canyon, heading for that area. It was a shocking scene.
"What's going on?" Some who were about to leave stopped when they saw that, turning around to see that shocking scene. Countless branches and leaves sprouted from the canyon beneath their feet, heading in the same direction.
"Are they not dead yet?" They were shocked.
However, how was that possible? Not even the will of Renhuang was able to stop it. Ye Futian and Xia Qingyuan, two saints, were buried by the Tree of Death. There was no way they could have survived.
Zhan Yuan, the supreme body of the great path of the Violet Heavenly Palace, stopped and turned around to look in that direction. He did not continue to move forward, but stared at that place instead.
"Aren't you going?" someone next to him asked.
"Let's keep watching," Zhan Yuan replied.
Many people from the top forces stopped in their tracks. In the air, there was a terrifying nine-headed phoenix that was madly devouring the deathly aura in the surroundings. Its eyes were cold, and it exuded a savage aura. Its nine heads were even more domineering and cold.
The Nine-Headed Phoenix Clan was a branch of the Phoenix clan, yet they were not tolerated by the Phoenix clan. However, the Nine-Headed Phoenix Clan had produced powerful figures who joined the Sky Demon Court all those years ago. They were extremely powerful, and they had always been at odds with the Phoenix clan.
At that moment, the nine-headed phoenix's nine pairs of eyes stared at that buried space. The will of death was too intense. If it could have devoured all of it, it would have been a great tonic for it.
Furthermore, it would have been even more perfect if it could have gotten its hands on the body of that ancient Renhuang who had fallen like a statue.
It was a pity that it was unable to withstand the devouring of that power.
However, something unusual seemed to have happened inside.
Ye Futian's World Tree Life Spirit was still devouring the deathly aura, branches, and leaves in a frenzy inside the Tree of Death, devouring them into his Life Palace. At that moment, his Life Palace was filled with deathly aura, taking over the entire world of his Life Palace. That caused the aura of death to flow all over his body, and even his fair face had black deathly will flowing all over it.
Countless tree-like arms reached out from the statue of the God of Death, grabbing at Ye Futian's body. The arms tangled with the World Tree that surrounded Ye Futian's body. The two powers were locked in a stalemate, corroding each other.
The World Tree Life Spirit swayed. Divine light coursed through every part of the tree, as if it could encompass everything in the world.
The two divine trees seemed to be merging. The branches and leaves of the Tree of Death seeped into the World Tree Life Spirit bit by bit. It looked like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.
Deathly aura continued to rush into Xia Qingyuan's body. The deathly aura on her body grew more and more intense. Ye Futian had no choice but to wrap the World Tree around her body, even allowing that power to flow into her body to fend off the deathly will for her.
Time passed bit by bit. Everyone outside looked at the extremely intense deathly will raging. Branches and leaves covered the sky, making it impossible for them to sense what was going on inside.
"The deathly will is weakening," a mighty one said. Many narrowed their eyes.
They were puzzled. Could it be that Ye Futian and the others were still alive?
Such a situation made them extremely curious. What exactly was going on inside?
"This …" At that moment, someone saw the branches and leaves at the perimeter begin to wither, and they looked even more shocked.
The deathly will is drying up?
What exactly is going on?
Yu Sheng had been standing at the side, watching everything unfold nervously. The others were the same. They shuddered when they saw what was going on, and they felt relieved. Everything should be fine.
That guy has always been able to create miracles.
Wu Yong and the others were extremely shocked as well. The more time they spent with Ye Futian, the more they found him to be terrifying. It was one thing back in Emperor Kua's ruins back then, but he was still able to survive in such a desperate situation.
The World Tree was drying up more and more, and the deathly will in the canyon was diminishing. All the mighty ones stared fixedly down below.
At that moment, Ye Futian and Xia Qingyuan were wrapped inside like a cocoon. Even the branches and leaves of the World Tree extended out and enveloped the statue-like figure of the Grim Reaper, swallowing up the deathly aura in his body bit by bit.
However, although he had been dead for many years, his body still contained extremely powerful deathly will. The will of a Renhuang level existence had long been integrated into his body and blood. Even though he had been dead for many years, his flesh still did not decay, and the will of the Great Path was everlasting.
The World Tree penetrated into his body bit by bit, wrapping around him and swallowing him bit by bit. The deathly will dyed the World Tree black, but the branches and leaves of the World Tree still wrapped around him and swallowed him up, just like how it had swallowed the Fire Spirit Orb in Emperor Kua's ruins and the Bone of the Divine Elephant Emperor of Ten Directions.
Ye Futian's body seemed to have turned into a terrifying vortex. The World Tree returned to his body and disappeared. The figure of Renhuang also disappeared. However, there was now a statue-like figure in Ye Futian's Life Palace.
Ye Futian's entire body was black at that moment, and the deathly aura around him was extremely thick. Xia Qingyuan was no better. The two of them were like two statues, standing there without moving at all.
The Tree of Death that wrapped around them withered rapidly. The branches and leaves that filled the air were also withering and falling.
The deathly aura gradually dissipated, flowing into the air.
"The deathly aura is about to dissipate." Everyone outside was shocked. Yu Sheng took one step forward and charged into the branches and leaves of the World Tree, shattering them in a frenzy.
The branches and leaves of the Tree of Death became extremely fragile, and they were blown away by a single gust of wind.
They were soon reduced to dust.
Yu Sheng's body appeared somewhere below. Two figures stood quietly by his side, looking like two statues.
