At the same time, somewhere in the secondary dimension world, Hayleen was wandering around, choosing a new target.
Very soon, she arrived at a blue liquid world. She flicked out the snake-killing poison and watched it dissolve in the liquid. As she worked, her thoughts drifted away.
"I don't know if the poison I planted before is effective …"
Hayleen muttered to herself.
She could only poison everywhere, but she did not dare to go back and check. This was because once the Pivotal Snake was poisoned, Black Star would definitely be waiting near the location of the incident. If she went over, there might be some risks.
The only way to determine if the plan was successful was to determine the state of the Pivotal Snake based on the mother tree's perception. If the mother tree's perception of the Pivotal Snake weakened or even disappeared, it would mean that the Pivotal Snake was dead. In that case, she would not need to check which trap the Pivotal Snake had fallen into.
Therefore, Hayleen felt that her situation was still relatively safe. She only needed to set up traps, and as long as the mother tree gave her feedback, she would be able to retreat.
After adding the snake-killing agent to the blue secondary dimension in front of her, Hayleen was about to turn around and leave. However, at this moment, the voice of the Ancestral Tree King suddenly came from the mental network, bringing good news.
"The mother tree's perception of the Pivotal Snake is rapidly weakening. Your method should have succeeded."
"It really succeeded? So fast? The chances are so low. I thought it would take at least a few years for the Pivotal Snake to choose the secondary dimension that I tampered with … "
Hayleen's eyes lit up in surprise.
In her imagination, she might need to spend two to three years to add enough snake-killing agents to the secondary dimensions before the Pivotal Snake had a higher chance of falling for it. However, the plan had only been going on for half a year, and there were not many secondary dimensions with poison added, but they were chosen by the Pivotal Snake so quickly. What kind of probability and luck was this?
It had only taken her less than a year to successfully resolve the biggest threat to the World Tree. This was a complete surprise!
The Ancestral Tree King was also in a good mood. He had asked Hayleen to carry out this mission with a long-term plan, but he did not expect it to work so quickly.
Don't ask. If you ask, fate is on my side!
This was definitely the blessing of the Goddess of Luck for the World Tree!
"Come back. When the mother tree confirms the death of the Pivotal Snake, the position of the Tree King will be yours."
"Alright, I'll go back now!"
Hayleen suppressed her excitement and was about to open the teleportation gate to return.
However, just as she was about to return in excitement, the Ancestral Tree King suddenly exclaimed and interrupted her.
"Wait a minute, the Mother Tree's senses are changing …"
Hayleen was stunned. "What's wrong now?"
"The mother tree's perception of the Pivotal Snake has stopped weakening and is instead becoming stronger … Strange, this is too abnormal. What happened?" The Ancestral Tree King's tone sank.
The stronger the World Tree's perception of the Pivotal Snake, the more mature the Pivotal Snake would be. Now, it was only able to sense a general range. Only when it reached adulthood would it be able to accurately locate each other.
Just now, after the signal of the Pivotal Snake weakened for a while, it suddenly rose against the trend. Soon, it exceeded the previous limit and was still rising.
Hayleen stopped in her tracks in shock.
"Why is this happening?!"
"You didn't do anything extra, did you?"
The strength of the perception was still rising. The Ancestral Tree King felt that something was wrong, and his tone was filled with suspicion.
"Absolutely not! I've been focusing on setting up traps. Even when I coincidentally encountered the three Universal Civilizations' fleets, I didn't make a move! "
Hayleen was so anxious that she almost swore an oath and shared the relevant memories in the mental network.
The Ancestral Tree King quickly browsed through her experiences in the past half a year and did not find anything abnormal. With a solemn expression, he said, "There's only one explanation. Black Star used some kind of method to save the Pivotal Snake and greatly accelerated its growth …"
Before he could finish his sentence, the mother tree's consciousness suddenly became restless as though it was feeling a strong sense of panic.
The Pivotal Snake's perception seemed to have broken through some kind of limit. A large area of perception suddenly disappeared and turned into precise coordinates in the blink of an eye!
The Ancestral Tree King's eyes widened, and his emotions fluctuated. He felt as though he was in a weightless zone, and his mind almost went blank.
The connection between the World Tree and the Pivotal Snake was two-way. When the World Tree could accurately locate the Pivotal Snake, it meant that the Pivotal Snake had entered adulthood and could also locate the exact coordinates of the World Tree.
This meant that … the location of the mother tree's main body had been exposed!
If not for the fact that he was sure that the mother tree would not lie, he would even suspect that the poison mixed by the mother tree was actually the catalyst for the Pivotal Snake to mature.
For a moment, the Ancestral Tree King was confused.
I sent someone to assassinate the Pivotal Snake. Even if they failed, I would only lose a high-level combatant, but why did they mature the Pivotal Snake instead?
Not only did they not resolve this threat, but they also greatly shortened the time for this hidden danger to erupt … We originally had a few decades to deal with it, but now, this buffer time is gone. We are not mentally prepared at all.
What should we do?!
"How could this be …"
Hayleen was also stunned. She stood rooted to the ground, doubting her life.
Before the two of them could recover from their shock, a spatial rift suddenly opened in this secondary dimension. Han Xiao stepped into the void and slowly walked out.
Han Xiao scanned his surroundings and quickly locked onto a spot that looked empty. It was actually where Hayleen was hiding. He smiled.
"Do you want to come out yourself, or do you want me to invite you?"
Hayleen's heart skipped a beat, and her expression changed drastically.
The continuous changes caused her heart to be in a mess. She did not expect Black Star to find her so quickly. Furthermore, with just a glance, he had seen through the stealth effect of the Leaf Invisibility Cloak and locked onto her location.
"Stop hiding. You won't be able to escape from my senses."
Han Xiao did not wait. Mechanical particles flowed along his arm, turning into a circular device that released waves of invisible force fields in Hayleen's direction.
In the empty space, Hayleen's figure suddenly appeared, fluctuating like ripples.
Seeing that her whereabouts had been exposed, Hayleen was shocked and hurriedly opened the teleportation gate to retreat.
However, at this moment, Han Xiao raised his hand and grabbed. A mechanical disc rose from behind his head like a halo, freezing space and shattering her teleportation spell.
Immediately after, lightning flashed, and a bunch of Mechanical Oracles surged out with Mechanical Force, surrounding Hayleen. However, they did not attack immediately.
"Oh no …"
Hayleen was filled with despair. The difference in strength was too great, and she could not fight a Transcendent alone. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind to fight to the death.
However, at this moment, the shocked voice of the Ancestral Tree King sounded in the mental network.
"Wait a minute, why is the mother tree's location on Black Star?"
Hayleen was stunned. She took a look and was shocked.
The coordinates of the Pivotal Snake that the mother tree had locked onto were Black Star … What was going on?
At this moment, Han Xiao did not attack immediately. Instead, he sized Hayleen up with interest and said, "Your idea of plotting against the Pivotal Snake is pretty good, but it's a pity that it's useless. I know that you guys have a mental network that can contact each other regardless of distance. Help me pass a message to the Ancestral Tree King. I already know the location of your World Tree's main body. You guys have already lost this battle."
"What did you do …" Hayleen could not help but ask.
"Are you referring to how I dealt with the genetic poison you guys released?"
Han Xiao smiled and raised his hand. A translucent snake-shaped figure appeared in his palm and coiled around. It was the Pivotal Snake that had been modified into a Virtual Life Form.
The Pivotal Snake had been transformed into a Virtual Life Form, and Han Xiao had instilled a large amount of data into it, using the method of artificial intelligence to accelerate its maturation.
The result made him overjoyed. His previous assumption was correct. The Pivotal Snake in its Virtual Life Form had broken away from the restrictions of normal growth and could mature quickly in this way. The Information Form connection between the Pivotal Snake and the World Tree did not disappear because of the change in the Pivotal Snake's life form. Both sides still had a two-way connection.
Han Xiao saw the World Tree's unwillingness to give up on the assassination plan from (Bold Explorer). He originally thought that it was his bad luck, but when he saw that Hayleen and Harrison had a short interaction, he was a little uncertain and had a bold guess.
Perhaps it was the effect of Harrison's halo that made Hayleen choose the food of the Pivotal Snake, which indirectly led to the Pivotal Snake being transformed into a Virtual Life Form by him. It matured in advance and sensed the coordinates of the World Tree … Although the probability was not high, Han Xiao felt that anything was possible for a protagonist.
Because the Virtual Life Form was the life form that Han Xiao controlled, he simply stored the Pivotal Snake in the Godly Fortress and turned it into a tool. This way, even if the World Tree could lock onto the Pivotal Snake, the coordinates it would obtain would only be his location. It would not be able to do anything to it.
Seeing this scene through the mental network, the Ancestral Tree King's face turned ashen, and he immediately understood the current situation.
There would probably be no more chance to remove the threat of the Pivotal Snake …
At this moment, Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and said to Hayleen, "You came to help me.
"Although you're here to assassinate the Pivotal Snake, you did me a favor. You can say that you're a hero of the three Universal Civilizations. I'll make an exception and give you a chance to live."
"… What are you going to do?"
"I'll seal you. Maybe after we get rid of the World Tree, you'll still have a chance to survive. You have nowhere to run now, so just accept the seal obediently and don't make me waste my energy." Han Xiao raised his brows.
"I …"
Hayleen's tone was hesitant, as if she was conflicted.
However, the next moment, she suddenly stood up and retreated. She threw out a series of instant-cast spells and blasted a path through the mechanical army. She wanted to break out and escape.
However, before she could do anything, the Mechanical Oracles around her attacked at the same time, instantly suppressing Hayleen. Han Xiao approached Hayleen and grabbed her neck with one hand.
"Looks like you won't give up until you see the coffin."
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and crushed her protective spell before throwing her toward the Mechanical Oracles.
An intense battle immediately broke out, but there was no suspense in the battle. The one-sided suppression did not last long, and Hayleen, who was at the end of her rope, was ravaged by the group of Mechanical Oracles until she was almost paralyzed.
Seeing this, Han Xiao floated in front of her, pressed down on her head, and activated his ability.
Not long after, the Spacetime Amber took shape and froze Hayleen's sorrowful and humiliated expression.
"Congratulations, Lord, for catching the culprit. There's indeed nothing in this world that can escape your eyes." Psionic Prime congratulated with a deep voice.
"Alright, you're not suitable for flattery. Go back."
Han Xiao waved his hand, feeling relieved.
If not for the World Tree's plot, he would not have made up his mind to experiment on the Pivotal Snake so quickly. The World Tree had shot herself in the foot.
"Since I've already obtained the coordinates, I'll call Harrison back … Speaking of which, I seem to have used his halo."
Han Xiao thought for a moment and called the Realmless King to act as a transit station to contact Harrison.
Not long after, Harrison's remote projection appeared.
"Your Excellency Black Star, why are you looking for me?"
"Don't participate in the expedition anymore. Come back."
Harrison was a little surprised and said helplessly, "Huh? Didn't we talk about this before? I remember you promised not to persuade me. I've already decided to contribute to the galactic society … "
However, before he could finish, Han Xiao interrupted him and smiled.
"Things are different now. The situation has changed. I've already grasped the exact coordinates of the World Tree's main body. I don't need the expeditionary army anymore. You don't have to take the risk anymore."
Harrison was stunned. He could not believe it and said hesitantly, "Your Excellency Black Star, you're not lying to me on purpose, are you? How long has it been, and you've already found the World Tree's main body?"
Han Xiao smiled and said, "It's all thanks to your luck this time. If not for you, I might not have been able to determine the location of the World Tree so quickly. Therefore, strictly speaking, a part of this credit is yours. You've already made a huge contribution to ending this war. You can leave now … It's settled. I'll teleport over later and bring you back."
With that, he hung up the call.
On the other side, Harrison scratched his head, confused and confused.
No, what did I do? How did I make a huge contribution? Why didn't I know?!
…
(There will be more later.)
Thank you to the Golden Alliance for the Sun and Moon in a Pot and the Universe in a Sleeve boss!
