Surging mental energy surged into the floating purple crystal leaf, and it instantly shone brightly. A beam of purple light suddenly shot out toward Aurora, who was within the protective circle of the three Universal Civilizations' fleet.
Seeing this, the closest mechanical army shook off Fortitude Tree King's entanglement and jointly raised a psionic shield to block the light purple beam.
However, the moment they came into contact, the light purple beam did not show any signs of being obstructed. Its speed did not change at all, and it easily pierced through the psionic shield as if the shield did not exist. The mechanical soldiers that used their bodies to block it were also pierced through, but their bodies were not damaged at all. It was as if this beam of light did not exist in the material world and could ignore all kinds of defenses.
"Hmm? Stop this attack. " Han Xiao had been paying attention to Heart Tree King's actions. Although he did not know what method Heart Tree King had used, it was best to stop it. He pushed aside Fortitude Tree King's mechanical body and immediately called his teammates who were fighting all over the battlefield.
Hearing Han Xiao's order, the Beyond Grade As who were closer barely managed to divert their attention from the battle and used all sorts of methods. They threw out magic, Esper Abilities, and psychic energy in an attempt to disperse the light purple beam, but they were all penetrated.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked.
"What ability is this?"
"It can't be blocked. Why does it look like the characteristics of the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter?"
Under everyone's gazes, this beam of light passed through the Beyond Grade A battle area and shot into the protective circle of the three Universal Civilizations' fleet. It passed through one battleship after another that came to stop it. No matter how Aurora's battleship changed its position, the beam of light continued to track it and soon penetrated the spaceship that Aurora was in.
The light purple beam passed through the shield and outer armor, shot into the command room, and headed straight for Aurora. Sorokin, the substitute emissary, appeared with a whoosh. His condensed psychic energy rushed forward, but it could not affect it. Even his body was pierced through, but he was not injured at all.
Just as it was about to hit Aurora, when it was only a few meters away, the light purple beam seemed to have hit an invisible barrier and suddenly slid away, drawing an arc and flying out of the battleship in a flash.
Seeing this, the tensed up Aurora heaved a sigh of relief.
"Looks like the Spacetime Amber is still useful …"
In front of her was a Space-Time Amber Ball. Han Xiao had given her a batch of them for self-defense. Currently, there was nothing known that could pass through the Space-Time Amber Ball.
However, the light purple beam did not dissipate. After flying out of the battleship, it made a big circle, readjusted its position, and shot towards Aurora, locking onto its target.
Seeing this scene from afar, Heart Tree King's expression changed slightly as though he was rather surprised.
"There's actually a way to block it? Could it be the special substance that separates the mother tree from the individual? "
Heart Tree King did not hesitate and immediately reached out to grab the purple crystal leaf. The green power of the World Tree circulated and activated a new power in an instant.
Kacha!
Cracks appeared on the surface of the purple crystal leaf. While it was damaged, it released even more power and released a halo of light.
The light purple beam that was chasing after Aurora seemed to be affected. It suddenly exploded and disappeared.
At first glance, Sorokin thought that this guy had given up on attacking. However, he suddenly heard a plop beside him. He turned around and saw Aurora suddenly falling to the ground.
"What happened to you?"
Sorokin was shocked and hurriedly went to Aurora. He saw that Aurora's eyes were lifeless as she stared straight ahead. Her eyes did not move at all, as though she had lost her perception of the outside world.
He quickly used his telekinesis to probe into Aurora's brain and found that Aurora's consciousness had already been sealed up. It was wrapped in a thick layer of purple crystal. There were also streams of green energy flowing within the crystal. His telekinesis couldn't penetrate it.
"What happened? My soul connection with Aurora has been severed! "Hella's voice sounded in the channel. She was the first to notice the abnormality, and her tone was urgent.
"Aurora has lost consciousness. Some kind of energy has sealed her thoughts. I don't know what kind of mental ability it is … Not good, I can't undo it for the time being."
Sorokin told the truth and used his psychic power to attack the purple crystal. However, the purple crystal in Aurora's brain was extremely tough. His psychic power could only leave shallow marks on it, and the purple crystal quickly repaired them.
Swoosh!
Just as he finished speaking, Han Xiao used the King to leave the battlefield and instantly appeared beside Aurora. Without a word, he poked Aurora and immediately checked on Aurora's situation.
All of Aurora's abilities had turned into a frozen gray color, and a special status appeared on her stats window.
[Illusion — Heart Lock]: Seals the thoughts and consciousness of an individual and enters a vegetative state. The recipient will fall into an endless virtual illusion formed by their own desires, ambitions, longing, imagination, fear, dreams, pursuits, and other factors. If the recipient treats the illusion as reality, it will continuously provide energy to the seal, causing the strength of the seal to not weaken with time. Instead, it will gradually increase. At the same time, the weaker the recipient is, the more difficult it will be for them to see through the illusion. Duration: Unknown.
"A thought seal that even Sorokin found difficult to break … It must be the characteristics of a Universal Treasure."
Han Xiao's mind flashed with the purple crystal leaf that the Heart Tree King had taken out, and his face tightened. There was no information about this item in his previous life.
The explosion just now ignored the distance and attack path, turning into a direct attack within an area. It was like a Spiritual Blast that directly affected an individual. As long as Aurora wasn't tightly wrapped in the Spacetime Amber, there would always be a hole to enter and be attacked.
If this move was used on others, it would also be a huge threat, but the Heart Tree King only used it on one person. Furthermore, the purple crystal leaf was damaged after using it, so there were probably some restrictions.
"This is not good. Aurora's current energy level is still too low …" Han Xiao's eyes narrowed.
Aurora's Esper Ability was special, but her level was limited. The effect of the seal cast by the Heart Tree King was naturally obvious, and the chances of her seeing through the illusion were too low. If her strength could reach the peak of the Beyond Grade A realm, the seal would definitely not be as strong as it was now.
"Those with psychic abilities, come over and try to unseal it."
Han Xiao immediately gave the order. He did not have time to stay here any longer. He quickly activated the King's repeated horizontal jump function and returned to his original position.
In just a short while, the Mechanical Deity, which had lost its core, was cut into pieces by the Fortitude Tree King. He had no choice but to use Mechanical Force to connect the pieces of the body and recombine them. He continued to fight with the Fortitude Tree King.
Knowing that the healer had fallen, the Beyond Grade As were anxious. They wanted to shake off their opponents and return to check on Aurora's situation, but the World Tree experts had also received the order from the Heart Tree King. They were very excited and pestered them with all their might, not letting the Beyond Grade As leave.
"Ha, your recovery-type Esper has been knocked down by His Excellency Tree King. Let's see how you guys recover!"
"Aren't you not afraid of death? Come on, continue to fight! "
"Without confidence, do you still dare to exchange injuries?"
In the mental network, many World Tree experts were excited and sneered.
The scene of the previous battle was still vivid in their minds. This group of enemies relied on the healer behind them and kept exchanging injuries with them. Even if they were heavily injured time and time again, as long as they were healed, they would be able to recover and fight until they were very uncomfortable. In the end, they had no choice but to use self-destruction tactics, but they only dragged a few people down with them.
At the thought of the embarrassing battle last time, many World Tree experts were furious. At this moment, Heart Tree King had used his methods to sweep away the confidence of these enemies. The Beyond Grade As of the World Tree all became spirited. They felt that they had finally been able to display their usual strength …
In terms of exchanging lives, they had never been afraid of anyone!
The Fortitude Tree King turned around and deflected Han Xiao's attack. Hearing the commotion in the mental network, he could not help but send a mental message to the Heart Tree King.
"Are you sure this can seal the enemy's recovery-type Esper forever?"
"I didn't say forever. As long as there are enough Espers who spend a lot of time wearing down the seal, it will be unlocked sooner or later … However, as long as the recovery-type Esper is unable to play a role in this battle, my goal will be achieved."
The Heart Tree King kept the cracked purple crystal leaf into his body and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Without the recovery-type ability user, the battle losses will return to normal. As long as we kill enough of the enemy's high-level combat power in this battle and cause substantial losses, even if the ability user wakes up later, it will be useless."
In his opinion, even if he only sealed the recovery-type esper in one battle, he could still succeed in the exchange. As long as he killed enough high-level enemy combatants in one go, he would be able to use the snowball advantage of the World Tree.
At this moment, the plan was already more than half successful. The Heart Tree King was relieved and returned to the battle. He cooperated with the Fortitude Tree King and attacked Han Xiao. For a moment, the three of them were locked in a fierce battle.
Not long after, some Beyond Grade As finally shook off their opponents with the help of their teammates and returned to the fleet. They came to Aurora's side, but after checking, their hearts sank.
"The situation is not good. This thought seal is too strong, and it's also protected by a special force. Even if we work together, we won't be able to undo it in a short period of time." Kasuyi's voice sounded in the channel.
"Not even you?" Sun Hunter was surprised.
Kasuyi shook his head. "Although I have unlimited energy, there is a limit to the strength of my psychic energy. It's like water constantly washing away the reef. It takes time."
Hearing Kasuyi's words, the hearts of the association members skipped a beat.
The next moment, an association member immediately suggested in the channel.
"Black Star, why don't we retreat first and fight them after Aurora's seal is unlocked?"
"Do you think the World Tree will watch us retreat? Furthermore, even if we retreat, the Tree King Halo will continue to take effect. There's a high chance that the front line won't be able to hold on. When Aurora unlocks the seal and wants to fight the other party, it's hard to say if they'll give us a chance. By then, it'll be too late."
Before Han Xiao could say anything, Oulou spoke first.
A large number of direct members ignored life and death and continued to fight with their opponents. Seeing this, many of the association members who wanted to retreat could not escape and could only continue fighting.
However, without the protection of the healer, a large number of association members considered their own safety and did not dare to risk their lives like last time. The combat strength they unleashed was far inferior to the first time they fought. Instead, they were faintly suppressed by the fearless World Tree experts. Fortunately, they had the advantage in numbers this time, and there was a group of revivors to support the situation. Otherwise, their losses might have surpassed the other party.
Many Beyond Grade As had their own thoughts as they fought fiercely. This time, the battle was much more bloody. Beyond Grade As on both sides were frequently sacrificed, and the losses continued to increase.
"Hehe, without that recovery-type Esper, your true colors will be revealed. The casualties will increase. How long can you last?"
As Han Xiao dealt with the attacks of Fortitude Tree King and Heart Tree King, the other party's mocking mental message sounded in his mind.
Boom!
Energy exploded, and a dark blue compressed energy cannon blasted Fortitude Tree King away. Han Xiao took the opportunity to glance at the losses of the Beyond Grade As. His mood was calm, and he did not care at all. He did not respond to the other party's mockery at all.
Turning around, Han Xiao started fighting with Fortitude Tree King again. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his brain, and Heart Tree King threw a few more mental blasts at him.
Han Xiao shook his head and felt that it was a little troublesome.
"Just one Tree King is already difficult enough to deal with. With two of them attacking together, it's even harder to deal with them … Being surrounded by these two fellows, although I can withstand their attacks, it's very difficult for me to deal with them effectively … I need someone to share the pressure with me and let me deal with one of them …"
As this thought flashed through his mind, Han Xiao gritted his teeth and kept glancing at Heart Tree King.
His goal was not to be in a stalemate with the two of them. If he could catch a Tree King here, that would be the best. At the very least, he had to kill one of them and make the other party enter the dormant period. If he let the other party escape unscathed, it would be too much of a loss.
He was being held back like this, and the two Tree Kings were taking care of each other. If they wanted to leave, he would most likely not be able to stop them.
Han Xiao's target was Heart Tree King. After all, Fortitude Tree King was only a Lord's Avatar, so there was no need to deal with him. However, someone had to restrain him.
Although Fortitude Tree King was an unfamiliar guy, his strength was worthy of his identity as a Tree King. He was also one of the top peak Beyond Grade As.
In his previous life, the World Tree War was a very late version. Now that the war had been brought forward by many years, Han Xiao could only think that Fortitude Tree King was the Mechanic Tree King of this era. He had lost his position in the future and was replaced by Emperor Tree King. As for the reason, he did not know.
Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Han Xiao looked at the battle situation. Seeing that most of his teammates were fighting a bloody battle and could not split themselves, his eyes flashed. He switched the communication channel and sent an order to one of the external reinforcements.
At this moment, he felt a sense of danger. Han Xiao hurriedly opened the Emperor's Robe and saw that Fortitude Tree King had used some kind of skill. The two-headed blade created a whirlpool of green energy and smashed into his body. Green flames exploded, and his huge body was sent flying.
"Humph, you still dare to be distracted in front of me. I think you don't take me seriously at all." Fortitude Tree King waved his blade and said coldly.
"What, you want the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon?" Han Xiao clicked his tongue and casually replied with a joke that the other party did not understand.
"Humph, I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, with me holding you back, don't even think about helping your other companions." Fortitude Tree King raised his blade and pointed at Han Xiao.
"Are you a pig? Snort again?"
Han Xiao was not to be outdone. He realized that the World Tree experts liked to chat when they were fighting.
"Outsider, they think that you have an almost indestructible body. I'll see if I can kill you today!"
Fortitude Tree King activated the fully armored cannons and shot out dense beams of light. He then swung his blade and was about to charge forward.
However, at this moment, the light of the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Device flashed behind Han Xiao, and a huge Mechanical Deity suddenly descended. It was a mixture of flesh and machinery. It was Herberlon!
The war in the interception circle had been going on for a month, and Herberlon had been on standby for a long time. The moment he received Han Xiao's message, he took the teleportation device and descended from the Flickering World. During the stalemate before the war broke out, he had already completed his weapon installation. He was now fully armed and in peak condition!
"World Tree! Our war is not over yet! "
Herberlon's angry roar sounded in the public channel. Countless thrusters were activated at the same time, and a huge pressure pushed Herberlon to accelerate. The giant blade in his hand swept up psionic energy and slashed at Fortitude Tree King.
Clang!
Herberlon's attack landed on Fortitude Tree King's blocking posture, and a shockwave swept out.
Another new force entered the arena. Many World Tree experts looked over and were stunned.
"You … Herberlon? You're still alive? "Fortitude Tree King was shocked.
Every World Tree expert present knew Herberlon. They had fought him when they destroyed the Karma Republic, so they had a deep impression of this enemy.
Heart Tree King was stunned for a moment before coming to a realization. He felt that he had understood the truth.
"I see. This civilization's initial information about our World Tree came from you!"
