Buzz …
Somewhere in the palace garden, a hole appeared, and a figure rushed out, crashing into the pitch-black tree man like a bolt of lightning.
With a loud bang, the pitch-black tree man was sent flying. His arms that had turned into vine spears shattered, and vine leaf fragments rained down from the sky. Each fragment contained an extremely powerful force, and they shot towards the surroundings of the palace.
The expressions of the powerhouses on the ground changed, and they all activated their defenses to block. However, there were still many whose defenses were penetrated, and they were riddled with holes by the vine leaf fragments.
"This is …"
Around him, vine leaves intertwined and wrapped around the pitch-black tree man, negating the remaining force of the collision. He stared at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, and his bark-like face revealed an expression of shock. "[Earth King Equipment]!?"
In the air opposite him, a five-meter-tall figure floated in the air, and there were rock-like patterns on the armor-like equipment.
A full-body Heart Origin Equipment like this was very rare on the continent, and those that could be used in actual combat were even rarer.
Among them, the most famous was the [Earth King Equipment] of the centaur army!
However, this was the glory of a thousand years ago …
However, to the pitch-black tree man, he was all too familiar with this equipment after fighting with Man Hua for close to a hundred times a thousand years ago.
A thousand years ago, when the [Earth King Equipment] was damaged, he even used all his strength to destroy its core.
At this moment, the [Earth King Equipment] appeared before him once again. Even though the pitch-black tree man was the Tree Spirit of Life, he still felt a sense of unfamiliarity …
"Impossible! The [Gemstone Furnace] is destroyed, and the core of the [Earth King Equipment] can no longer be created. Is this an empty shell? "
The pitch-black tree man speculated. He was very clear about the situation in the North, and the fact that the Shi Family and other forces had secretly created an empty shell of the [Earth King Equipment] could not be hidden from him.
Just as the pitch-black tree man was in shock, the [Earth King Equipment] opposite him responded. With a boom, the right arm of the equipment was raised, and it punched out fiercely. The shining fist mark drew an arc in the air, and it came from an extremely tricky angle.
In mid-air, a dazzling fireball exploded, and then an extremely violent force completely exploded in front of the pitch-black tree man …
Boom!
The pitch-black treant was already prepared. Its leaves and vines interweaved into layers of vine shields to block the punch.
Even so, the punch still blasted through the layers of vine shields and struck the pitch-black treant's arms that had just recovered, sending it flying again.
"This power … is it really the [Earth King Equipment]?! How is this possible … "the pitch-black treant roared.
"There are always accidents in this world … Nothing is impossible …"
A cold voice sounded. It was the voice created by the Moon Core.
At this time, within the [Earth King Equipment], Hayashi River was trying his best to adapt to the incomparably powerful strength that he had suddenly gained control of.
Previously in the Sealed Region, even though Hayashi River had worn the Earth King Armament, the experience was completely different from this time.
After all, injecting energy into the second energy source was extremely taxing for Man Hua.
The previous few times he had used it were when the second energy source had not been activated …
But now, it was different. The [Earth King Equipment] that was filled with the second energy source had undergone an unexpected change. The power of the two energy sources was actually greater than 1 + 1 + 2.
This situation was indeed too difficult for Hayashi River to adapt to. His true strength was only at level six.
In order to unleash the true power of the [Earth King Equipment], one had to be at least a level eight expert to control it.
Hayashi River needed the power of the [Seventh Armament] to be able to truly control the [Earth King Equipment]. This was not something that could be mastered in a short period of time.
Fortunately, with the help of the Moon Core and Man Hua's remote control, Hayashi River was barely able to adapt.
Ding ding ding …
Looking at the energy slots of the two energy sources in the [Earth King Equipment], Lin Chuan muttered to himself, "I have to be careful not to blow up the palace."
"This [Earth King Equipment] is truly a masterpiece!"
Man Hua's praise sounded in the earpiece. The Centaur Race elder exclaimed repeatedly. He did not expect that the [Earth King Equipment] that was filled with energy sources would have such power in a real battle.
Hayashi River rolled his eyes and did not say anything else. He calmed his mind and carefully controlled the [Earth King Equipment]. Suddenly, he activated it and charged out like an arrow.
In mid-air, the terrifying speed of the [Earth King Equipment] broke through the air wall. Accompanied by an ear-piercing sonic boom, it arrived in front of the pitch-black treant in an instant.
"[Earth King Rend]!"
In that instant, the right arm of the [Earth King Equipment] smashed down. The arm rapidly expanded and turned into a three-meter-long gauntlet. It was covered with dragon-like rock patterns and ruthlessly smashed towards the pitch-black treant.
With a rumble … the pitch-black treant's figure rapidly grew, and its arms turned into a huge vine shield. The leaves and vines behind it continued to spread, supporting the shield to block this attack.
However, such a defense was futile. The gauntlet smashed onto the vine shield and instantly shattered it. The pitch-black treant could not block it at all. Like a meteorite, it fell from mid-air and smashed a huge hole in the ground.
"Competing with the [Earth King Equipment] in terms of strength, should I say that you have regressed, or regressed …"
A cold voice slowly sounded. Hayashi River conveyed Man Hua's sarcasm.
In the huge hole, the pitch-black treant's miserable state could be vaguely seen. Its arm was shattered again, and there were clear cracks on its body. Its body was almost broken.
In that attack just now, Hayashi River had used eighty percent of the power of the [Earth King Equipment] as the first energy source. With the addition of his own [Seventh Armor], its destructive power was extremely terrifying even for a ninth realm expert.
After all, the [Earth King Equipment] that could truly display its power was at the ninth realm.
And the [Earth King Equipment] that Hayashi River was controlling now was not just his own power. Instead, it was controlled by a ninth realm expert like Man Hua, the [Moon Core], an even more powerful combat intelligence core, and the [Seventh Armor].
Strictly speaking, Hayashi River was only a controller, a dispatcher.
Such an [Earth King Equipment] had already surpassed the [Earth King Equipment] that Man Hua had worn a thousand years ago.
"This power … Man Hua, you old thing, your power has not weakened at all. Were you hiding your strength just now?!"
With a bang, the pitch-black treant disappeared from the huge hole. When it reappeared, it was already in mid-air, distancing itself from Hayashi River. The cracks on its body rapidly healed, and its shattered arms grew again.
"As expected of a Tree Spirit of Life, and a monster that has devoured two Tree Spirits of Life. This regeneration speed is a little troublesome …" Hayashi River muttered.
"It is indeed troublesome."
In the secret room, Man Hua clearly understood the situation on the battlefield through the second energy source. The centaur elder frowned, feeling that this was a little troublesome.
With this [Earth King Equipment], even if his side had the advantage, it would be very difficult to deal a destructive blow to the Tree Spirit of Life.
This Tree Spirit of Life's recovery ability was too strong. Its aura had not weakened in the slightest even after being heavily injured twice.
"Defeat this monster a few times and see if it can cause any damage. Also, see if this Tree Spirit of Life has a core like a living creature's heart. Perhaps this is not its true body …"
At this moment, Mossy Bone's voice sounded. He was watching the battle from the center of the palace and gave a series of suggestions.
Hayashi River sighed inwardly. From the beginning of this battle, the pitch-black treant had been at an absolute disadvantage.
He was not fighting alone on his side …
Bang, bang, bang …
Just as Hayashi River and the others were discussing the pitch-black treant's weakness, the treant roared and absorbed the leaves and vines around it. Its body rapidly expanded, and it soon became the size of a small mountain.
With a muffled sound, two huge legs stomped on the palace, turning two palaces into ruins. The pitch-black treant stared at the [Earth King Equipment] and let out a sharp, strange laugh.
"Let's see how you can suppress me in this form with your strength!"
The next moment, accompanied by a sharp sound, the giant treant swung its arms again and smashed down from the sky. Its arms also turned into two huge gauntlets, wanting to give the treant a taste of its own medicine.
"This Tree Spirit of Life doesn't seem to have studied martial arts …" Hayashi River murmured.
"What martial arts does this guy need to study? He can crush a level-nine with just his own strength." Mossy Bone snorted coldly.
"This is the Tree Spirit of Life, not a real living creature. How can it cultivate martial arts? Humph, you are indeed a mechanic, but your understanding of martial arts is only superficial …" Man Hua also said disdainfully.
Hayashi River was a little speechless. He was speechless after being mocked by these two peerless elites. He then activated the other form of the [Earth King Equipment].
Hum hum hum …
The [Earth King Equipment] opened its palms, and threads of whirlpools of light quickly condensed. They were completely opposite powers, and two terrifying waves rose.
At the same time, a transparent figure appeared behind the [Earth King Equipment]. It looked like a Centaur, but it was different from ordinary Centaurs. It had the characteristics of the Human Race.
In an instant, an extremely powerful aura shrouded the surroundings, covering half of the palace.
Countless roulettes, dozens of meters in diameter, appeared and shot out from the transparent figure, attacking the giant treant from all directions. The power of each roulette was comparable to a level-seven powerhouse's full-force attack, and the roulettes were divided into two layers that spun wildly in opposite directions.
Hiss hiss hiss …
Deafening sawing sounds rang out as these roulettes wildly sawed at the giant treant. As sparks flew, sawdust also fell from the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the giant treant's body was covered in countless cracks. Some parts of its huge body had already been sawed open, and it would break at any moment …
The giant treant roared repeatedly, emitting a roar similar to a scream. Its body rapidly shrank, returning to its original size.
"It seems … this fellow doesn't have anything similar to a core in its body. But, this attack has weakened its aura …"
Hayashi River muttered to himself, but he frowned. This was not good news.
If this Tree of Life Spirit did not have a fatal weakness, then this battle would be a protracted one. It would need to constantly exhaust its strength to defeat it.
For Hayashi River, this was the last thing he wanted to see. Because the energy supply of the [Earth King Equipment] was the rare sealed energy crystal!
Sealed energy crystals were priceless, not to mention the rare sealed energy crystal. If he could save a little, then he should save a little …
"Don't delay! Defeat this monster head-on like this … "Man Hua shouted.
Hayashi River was speechless. This old fellow did not know how to save at all. No wonder the Centaur Race became so poor after a hundred years of war. This kind of behavior was too wasteful!
Thinking like this, Hayashi River ordered the [Moon Core] to try to find the pitch-black treant's weakness as he began to bombard it.
To be more precise, it was a demonstration of the power of the [Earth King Equipment] …
Around the palace, the surviving people watched the battle in midair. Many people had different expressions. Those who were originally hostile to the Northern Royal Family and the Centaur Legion all had pale faces at this moment.
It turned out that the Centaur Legion had been hiding for so many years, and the [Earth King Equipment] was not damaged at all. Or rather, it had long been repaired. Its power was so terrifying.
There were also people who shuddered, thinking that the expert controlling the [Earth King Equipment] was most likely the Centaur Race old man, the legendary strongest commander of the Centaur Legion, Man Hua.
This unparalleled expert was actually still alive, and his strength was as terrifying as the legends said. The [Earth King Equipment] he controlled seemed to be even more powerful than the legends said …
Such a Centaur Legion, such a Centaur Race, how could they win?
Somewhere in the palace, the faces of Shi Hulie, Gong Bie Qian, and the others were already as pale as paper. Looking at the power of the [Earth King Equipment] in midair, the hearts of several eighth realm experts sank to the bottom.
Previously in the Sealed Region, Shi Hulie and the others had speculated that even if Man Hua's strength was still at the ninth realm, there would still be a way to deal with him.
But how could they deal with Man Hua, who could display the true power of the [Earth King Equipment]?
A thousand years ago, in the era of geniuses and heroes, Man Hua stood at the top of the continent, and now it was even more so …
"It seems that our plan needs to change …" Gong Bie Qian said in a low voice.
"You mean … to surrender to the Royal Family?" Shi Hulie said in a low voice.
Shi and Gong exchanged glances. In the face of absolute power, all resistance was futile. With this [Earth King Equipment], it was enough to suppress all the forces in the Northern Lands.
The two had a tacit understanding, and reached an agreement with their eyes. They would both abandon the Zhong Family and surrender to the Northern King. When the time came, they would deal with the Zhong Family together, and they should be able to protect each other's foundation.
On the other side.
While the Northern King, Verrol, and the others were overjoyed, they also felt that it was strange. This [Earth King Equipment] could not resonate with the King's Sword and the Centaur Warrior Equipment.
"This [Earth King Equipment] does not seem to be the one used by Army Commander Man Hua …" the Northern King muttered.
"Yes …"
Verrol looked at Bayun, who was at the side, with a probing look in his eyes. His younger brother and the Elder Ancestor had come together, so the latter should have some understanding.
Bayun shook his head. This concerned the secret agreement between Mr. Chuan and the Elder Ancestor, and it was not convenient for him to reveal it.
At this moment —
The battle between the [Earth King Equipment] and the pitch-black treant had reached the tenth round …
The so-called tenth round was Hayashi River's calculation. The tenth round would completely destroy the body of the pitch-black treant.
This time, the destruction was very thorough. With the [Earth King Equipment] activating its second energy source, the body of the pitch-black treant was directly blasted into sawdust in an extremely violent manner.
Looking at the body of the pitch-black treant amidst the surrounding vine walls, Hayashi River's brows furrowed tightly. After these ten rounds of battle, the aura of the pitch-black treant had only been depleted by less than one-fifth.
On the other hand, the energy consumption of the [Earth King Equipment] was only one-tenth. This seemed to give him the upper hand.
However, such a huge advantage was not what Hayashi River was happy to see. It would have been fine if the energy of the [Earth King Equipment] was depleted by half to destroy the pitch-black treant.
But if this damned cockroach treant actually had a way to regenerate, wouldn't that be terrible …
The energy consumption of the [Earth King Equipment] had been reduced to less than half, but it would be difficult for it to sustain such an output.
At that time, if one side was depleted, the other side would grow, and the pitch-black treant might even wear him down to death …
Suddenly, the voice of the [Moon Core] sounded.
"Owner, the battle data has been collected. Preliminary calculations show that the strength of this Tree of Life Spirit is equivalent to the peak of the Ninth Realm, and its regenerative ability is extremely strong. Its weakness is unknown …"
What the hell was the use of these calculations …
Hayashi River cursed in his heart. He wanted a clear answer, not this useless information in battle.
The voice of the [Moon Core] paused for a moment, then reported, "Although the weakness of this Tree of Life Spirit is unknown, the power of electromagnetism has an advantage against trees …"
Hayashi River was stunned for a moment, then reacted. The [Moon Core]'s calculations were indeed correct.
He controlled the [Earth King Equipment] and was somewhat immersed in the sudden huge power he had obtained, forgetting about his own [Scaled Arm].
"Do I have to use the [Earth King Equipment]'s ultimate attack? The energy consumption is a little high … "
Hayashi River muttered with some pain. Even if this [Earth King Equipment] did not belong to him after this battle, he still felt the pain of his wallet bursting at the thought of those rare energy crystals.
"There's no other way …"
Looking at the pitch-black treant in front of him, Hayashi River made a decision. He controlled the [Scaled Arm] and used the [Seventh Armament] as a medium to inject electromagnetic energy into a weapon on the back of the [Earth King Equipment].
Crack!
The back of the [Earth King Equipment] split open, and a hand cannon popped out and landed in his hand.
This hand cannon was shaped like a beast's head. After it was activated, it spat out flames even before it was fired.
With the injection of electromagnetic energy, the entire body of the cannon was intertwined with countless electric currents and quickly gathered at the mouth of the cannon.
At the same time, the energy of the first and second energy sources was rapidly depleted. Suddenly, 20% of the energy was depleted and injected into this hand cannon.
In mid-air, it was as if another sun had appeared, its radiance covering the entire Royal City …
"This is … Oh no, run …"
The pitch-black treant felt a sense of horror. It immediately turned around and rushed toward the underground vine layer.
