Boom!
In the sky above the palace, Man Hua, who was fighting fiercely with the Tree Man, suddenly retreated and then punched out like lightning.
This punch came without warning and was extremely fast. In the sky, a huge fist came crashing down like a mountain.
In the square in the center of the palace, many experts felt a muffled thunder explode in their ears, shaking them so much that they staggered.
"F * ck … A fight between level-nine experts is really not a place for people to stay!"
"Why is this vine wall so thick? I can't punch through it at all …"
All the experts were shocked and secretly cursed. If possible, they wanted to immediately escape from here and go far away, never to come back to this terrifying place again.
Previously, when this elder of the Centaur Tribesman appeared, Shi Hulie and the others who knew his identity panicked, and the other experts almost screamed.
These people did not recognize Man Hua's identity, but recognized his strength as a level-nine expert. They all knew that things were not going well …
A battle between two cultivators of the Ninth Realm was a disaster level scene. Since ancient times, a battle between such cultivators had to be isolated from the battlefield of a city. Otherwise, the entire city would really be swept into it.
Now, two level-nine experts were fighting in the sky above the palace. In such a situation, even a level-eight expert would curse.
The difference between level-eight and level-nine experts could be said to be greater than the sum of level-one to level-eight experts.
At this moment, Man Hua suddenly punched out with all his strength. This made all the experts present shudder. If even a level-eight expert was grazed, he would either die or be crippled.
Rumble …
The Tree Man screamed and went straight up. The two huge forces collided, and the sky seemed to crack, bursting out with an earth-shattering noise.
In the palace, the King of the North held the King's Sword and protected the half-destroyed palace with a solemn expression.
"Why does this level-nine Centaur Tribesman look a little like the legendary Army Commander Man Hua …"
The King of the North muttered to himself. He was very familiar with the history of the Northern Lands and had read many secrets from thousands of years ago. Naturally, he had seen what Man Hua looked like.
Although this Centaur Tribesman looked old, from the power he displayed, his moves, and some other aspects, the King of the North had such a guess.
"Father, should we temporarily hide …" The Princess said with some worry.
"Dodge? This is my palace, where can I retreat to? "
The King of the North said in a low voice, "Even if a group of level-nine attacks us, as the King of the North, I will fight to the death!"
As he spoke, his body emitted a sharp aura, as if it was about to burst out from his body.
On the side, the princess noticed her father's strange behavior. She was a little shocked, but she didn't say anything in the end.
Rumble …
In mid-air, the treant's arms exploded and turned into powder.
The power of Man Hua's punch was truly earth-shattering. If it wasn't a Realm Nine powerhouse, but all the powerhouses in the square, even if they joined forces, more than half of them would be dead or injured.
"Get out of my way …"
The Treant let out a shrill cry as its arms quickly recovered. It seemed like it did not want to be entangled with Man Hua and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
This action naturally attracted Man Hua's attention. The Centaur elder did not understand why the treant would have such a reaction, but he could guess that something had happened.
This situation greatly increased Man Hua's chances of winning. In a battle between level-nine powerhouses, the energy of both sides was incomparably long. Even with Nine Star Equipment, it would still be a protracted battle.
If one side had a mental problem, it would be an excellent opportunity …
"Let's do it in one go! Kill it … "
Man Hua activated his power. The group of people on his side hid in the dark not to reap the benefits, but to observe how to effectively kill this treant.
Mossy Bone suggested a method, which was to completely destroy the treant. Even if it could not be destroyed, it would greatly weaken its power.
Man Hua deeply agreed with this. This wasn't a complete Tree of Life, so completely destroying it would definitely cause considerable damage to it.
However, it was very difficult to do this in a battle between level-nine powerhouses …
Now, it was an excellent opportunity!
At this moment, the King of the North suddenly shouted in the palace, "Senior, let's attack together and defeat it!"
In the half-destroyed palace, a sword light suddenly shot out. The sharpness of this sword was far greater than before.
When Shi Hulie, Gong Bie Qian, and the others saw this sword light, their eyes stung. Of course, they could sense that this sword actually contained the embryonic form of level-nine sword intent.
The King of the North was about to break through?!
As this thought flashed through their minds, Shi Hulie and the others felt cold …
Buzz!
The sword light flashed, and the treant's newly recovered left arm and left leg were cut off. The cut was like a mirror, and there were remnants of the embryonic form of level-nine sword intent …
On the opposite side, Man Hua immediately attacked. Both of his fists punched out continuously, and each punch landed solidly on the treant's body, continuously shattering it.
The violent fist force raged, and with a roar, the treant's body collapsed. The shattered leaves and vines fell from the sky, and its body was torn apart. A dark green tree trunk as thick as a forearm fell.
"That's the stained Tree of Life's trunk …" Man Hua's face darkened slightly.
At this moment, the powerhouses around the square also saw this tree trunk, and they all revealed looks of greed. This was an immeasurable treasure!
Some powerhouses were tempted, but they had no choice but to suppress their greed. Snatching this treasure in front of level-nine powerhouses was no different from courting death.
Suddenly, a vine wall on the south side of the square split open, and a figure rushed out, flying towards the Tree of Life's trunk.
"You dare …"
The one who spoke was not Man Hua, nor was it Northern King, but the voice that came from the vine leaves underground. It was the treant's angry roar.
Roar …
The figure roared, and a terrifying sound wave spread out, shaking Man Hua so much that he could not help but retreat.
Needless to say, the powerhouses around the square all fell left and right. Apart from the powerhouses above level-seven, everyone else was shaken to the point that they spat out blood and suffered serious injuries. Those below level-five were directly roared to death …
Many of the powerhouses present died in an instant, causing the others to exclaim. Another level-nine powerhouse?!
The figure's speed was extremely fast, and it went straight for the Tree of Life's trunk …
At the same time.
In the palace ahead, beams of light suddenly lit up. It was actually hundreds of energy crystal heavy cannons firing at the figure.
Dong, dong, dong …
The beams of light bombarded the figure, but it was as if hitting an extremely solid object. The latter was actually unharmed, but its speed involuntarily slowed down, revealing its true appearance.
The powerhouses present then saw clearly that this figure was also a treant, but it was much thicker than the previous one. It was more than five meters tall, and its bark was a rotten color, emitting a boundless and strange aura of decay.
Anyone with the slightest eyesight would be able to tell that this treant was clearly different from the previous treant.
"Another Tree of Life's trunk …" Man Hua's eyes moved slightly, and he frowned.
Two treants, representing two Tree of Life's trunks, appearing at the palace at the same time. This matter was too strange …
Bang, bang, bang …
Figures rushed out from the palace ahead, and immediately, an unparalleled fighting spirit filled the air. The centaur warriors were fully armed, and they rushed towards the thick treant that appeared later.
"Centaur army?!"
The Shi Family, the Gong Family, and the Zhong Family all paled. For them, what they feared the most in the Northern Lands was not the Northern King, but the centaur army.
Before this trip, these major forces had learned that the centaur army was in the west of the Northern Lands, encircling and suppressing the forces of the dark dwarves.
But they did not expect that the centaur army had been lying in ambush in the Northern King's palace, and only appeared now …
"Did the Northern King plan for this moment?"
Shi Hulie felt a chill down his spine. If so many unforeseen events had not occurred, and the four major forces had joined forces to rebel in the palace, what were the chances of victory against the elites of the centaur army?
Dong, dong, dong …
One by one, the centaur warriors charged. The heart yuan equipment on their bodies flowed with light, and they actually covered each other, forming a whole, bursting forth with unparalleled power.
This army of a thousand people was like a whole, and this was also the rumored terrifying part of the centaur army …
However, many people had doubts in their hearts. It was said that the [Earth King Equipment] had always been repaired, so how could the centaur army unleash such power?
Man Hua's heart moved, and he looked towards the palace. The old centaur man's vision was not obstructed, and he could clearly see the situation inside.
On the tall building of the palace, a woman with a graceful figure stood together with the Northern King, holding the King's Sword together. The sword body emitted a strange wave that resonated with the heart yuan equipment of these centaur warriors.
"The true inheritor of the King's Sword … no wonder she was made a princess …"
The old centaur man thought to himself. This was a secret that only he and the Northern King knew. The Northern King's King's Sword and [Earth King Equipment] could resonate with the heart yuan equipment of the centaur army.
And when the King's Sword and the [Earth King Equipment] worked together, it was the strongest form of the centaur army!
This, was the true secret of the centaur army's invincibility a thousand years ago!
However, the true inheritor of the King's Sword was actually even rarer than the [Rock Bi Pattern] of the centaur race, much rarer …
Boom boom boom …
On the square, the battle between the centaur army and the thick and sturdy tree man had erupted. The centaur army's power was linked together, and when they launched an assault, they could actually contend against a ninth realm expert.
The thick and sturdy tree man roared again and again. It was trapped in a tight encirclement, and no matter how hard it tried, it could not break out of the centaur army's encirclement.
On the contrary, leaves and vines constantly shot out from the ground, hindering its movements and causing it to gradually fall into a disadvantageous position.
This scene made all the experts' scalps go numb. Over the years, it was not that the centaur army had not participated in battles, but because the opponents were easily defeated, it was difficult to measure the centaur army's current combat power.
However, there had been rumors for a long time that the centaur army was not as strong as it used to be, and on the ranking of the continent's armies, it had fallen beyond the top 20.
This also caused many people to have a misconception that the centaur army was not strong, and that it could still be on the ranking of the continent's armies because of its accumulated prestige.
Now, they had witnessed with their own eyes that a thousand centaur warriors had actually joined forces to trap a ninth realm expert. If this news were to spread, it would immediately cause a stir in the Sea-Ao Empire.
Not only that, the experts could also feel the battle intent emanating from these centaur warriors. It was as thick as magma, causing them to feel their bodies stiffen and intimidated.
If they were to truly face it, the feeling would be amplified tenfold, or even a hundredfold. At that time, they would not even be able to exert 70% of their strength, and would be defeated in an instant …
In the distance —
In the shadows, Bayun's gaze fell on the centaur warrior charging at the forefront of the centaur army. It was a centaur man who looked somewhat like him. He was extremely powerful, having reached the pinnacle of the seventh realm, and was commanding the centaur warriors to charge.
"Big brother …"
Bayun was very agitated. He took a step forward, but was stopped by Mossy Bones.
"Don't go out and cause trouble …"
As Mossy Bones spoke, his attention was not on the center of the battle, but on the surroundings. Based on the scanning of the AI, he sensed that something was wrong.
Crack crack …
The thick Treant's bark continued to crack, already unable to withstand the centaur army's charge. Moreover, Man Hua would occasionally launch a sneak attack from the side, causing serious damage to the Treant's body.
As the bark fell, everyone was shocked to discover that under the bark was not a body intertwined with leaves and vines, nor was it a tree trunk, but a human body.
It was a skinny human body …
This scene left the experts dumbfounded. They had never imagined that it would be like this …
Bang!
The thick Treant's head exploded, revealing the face of a human elder. His face was filled with countless wrinkles that looked as if they were wrinkled together.
It was really a person!?
Many people felt their scalps go numb. A Treant from the Tree of Life was already shocking enough, but the body of the Treant that appeared later was actually hiding a human elder.
What was going on?!
"Haha … I didn't expect it to be you …"
Man Hua laughed. He knew this human elder. During the continental war a thousand years ago, they had crossed paths more than once.
A thousand years ago, the centaur army and the Imperial Knights clashed more than ninety times …
At that time, the leader of the Imperial Knights was this old man, the continent's adjudicator, Kesnari!
"How could this be!? Your centaur army has been here for so many years, and you still dare to ruin my plans … "
The bark on the surface of his body shattered, and Kesnari's face twisted with extreme anger. He roared into the sky, and countless cracks suddenly appeared on his body as a violent energy surged.
Was he going to self-destruct?!
The experts present were shocked, but the centaur army closest to him was not flustered. Under the command of the majestic centaur, they quickly raised shields of light in front of them.
Boom …
Kesnari's body exploded, but it didn't cause a huge explosion. Instead, a section of the tree trunk merged into the leaves and vines, disappearing.
"A feint?!"
The experts were shocked, and before they could react, a violent tremor came from the ground.
Boom …
The ground began to crack, and the entire square, including the palace, was torn in half by a powerful tearing force.
The ground was covered in dense leaves, and they were probably more than ten thousand meters thick …
In the palace, the Northern King appeared with his daughter, met up with the centaur army, and met with Man Hua.
"Senior Centaur … may I ask …"
The Northern King and the Centaur Legion looked at Man Hua with a series of questions in their minds. This old man's actions were too similar to the legendary Centaur Legion Commander. Moreover, he was a ninth realm expert, so it was easy for them to associate him.
"Let's not talk about this first …"
Man Hua's face darkened, and he waved his hand. Hayashi River's warning came from the centaur elder's earpiece.
"Old Man Hua, it seems that the great enemy you've been waiting for has appeared … He's devouring the other two branches of the Tree of Life …" Hayashi River said.
You brat didn't appear for a long time, and now you bring me such terrible news …
Man Hua cursed inwardly, but his heart sank. "Where is he? Can I stop him in time … "
"It seems a little difficult, but … let's meet up first … It seems that there's some trouble … After all, we came to the palace a little late …" Hayashi River sighed in the earpiece.
