"That's the Divine Kingdom of Wood's guardian saint artifact, the Life Root!" exclaimed Kamui. This confirmed Mu Daiyu's identity. She was undoubtedly the Divine Kingdom of Wood's Emperor. Otherwise, she wouldn't have such a guardian saint artifact.
"Hmph, as the Emperor of a region, you actually risked everything to come to the Legend Empire for a woman. You're willing to become a member of someone else's harem. How shameless," scolded Chen Jiu. He wasn't the slightest bit afraid. "If we're talking about incapable rulers, I think you're the most incapable ruler."
"Demon, prepare to die! Saint Pillar Props the Heavens, War God of Life!" Mu Daiyu was furious. A Saint Heavenly Pillar flew out from the back of her head.
Magicians also cultivated Saint Heavenly Pillars. However, they were the exact opposite of Yuan Qi cultivators. Magicians extended their Saint Heavenly Pillars from their heads to their dantians.
The effect was the same. When the Saint Heavenly Pillar appeared, the entire world was filled with life and the aura of plants. It was as if this world had suddenly become dominated by plants. In front of them, humans seemed insignificant.
"Life Battle Root, Resurrect! The Battle God Reappears!" shouted Mu Daiyu. Shockingly, she connected her Essence Saint Pillar to the Life Battle Root. The withered root suddenly began to grow, transforming into a towering tree.
The tree's crown covered the sky, and its trunk was thick. As for the tree's roots, they were densely packed. They pierced through space and absorbed the world's nourishment. It was truly frightening.
"Life Deprivation!" shouted Mu Daiyu. Countless roots shot toward Chen Jiu from all directions like arrows. They were everywhere, and there was nothing they couldn't penetrate. It was extremely terrifying.
"Heavens … if you're caught by them, even a dragon would be sucked dry …" Countless gasps rang out. They all broke out in a cold sweat for Chen Jiu. Kamui especially stood up, clenching his fists. He seemed to be ready to call for help at any moment.
"Comparing saint artifacts? You're still too inexperienced. "At this moment, Chen Jiu laughed contemptuously. After he stood up slightly, many small scales suddenly appeared around him.
Clink, clink … The omnipresent roots and the powerful Saint-level aura were unable to penetrate the barrier of the mirror and were all bounced away.
"What …?" Everyone present, including Mu Daiyu herself, was dumbfounded. They couldn't believe it. "What kind of Saint item is that?"
"A defensive type Saint Artifact? No wonder he dared to collide with the Saintly Heavenly Pillar without suffering any damage. It turns out that he has nothing to fear … "The few old men sighed and couldn't help but be envious.
One had to know that Saint Weapons were rarely seen in the first place. Moreover, most of them were offensive weapons because the best defense was offense. For Saint Weapons that were purely defensive, they were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
"Despicable, despicable to the extreme. The forbidden zone of life, the dead souls of hell …" Mu Daiyu cursed angrily. Unable to take down Chen Jiu made him feel very ashamed. As he roared, the tree roots emitted an aura of death, covering the sky and enveloping Chen Jiu.
Under this aura of death, even the origin of the world's Daoist techniques died. It couldn't survive. This was an extraordinary power. The terror of the forbidden spell once again shocked the officials.
"Boom …" What was even more shocking was that a war god-like silhouette flashing with golden light suddenly shot out from within. Even the powerful forbidden spell was destroyed by him.
"Mu Daiyu, the warm-up is over. Now, let the battle officially begin." Chen Jiu's words shocked everyone present. They had already fought to this extent, and it was still a warm-up?
"You …" Mu Daiyu didn't curse out loud because Chen Jiu's terror had once again stunned him.
Chen Jiu made a grabbing motion with his hand. His strength was so great that it could shatter mountains and rivers. Even the powerful roots of the tree couldn't withstand his strength and broke apart on the spot.
"Heavens … What kind of divine power is this? It can even break a Saint Root …" Everyone cried out in awe.
"You're courting death! Bind!" Mu Daiyu panicked. He urged all of his roots to once more bind Chen Jiu.
"It's useless. Break all of them!" roared Chen Jiu. His voice shook the sky. His figure was like a sharp sword, cutting away life.
Bang! Bang! The moment the countless roots touched his body, they immediately broke apart, unable to bind him in the slightest.
"No … this is impossible!" In just a few moments, the powerful tree's roots had all been broken. It was an unbearable sight. Mu Daiyu couldn't help but feel a burst of terror.
It had to be known that the Life Root was their nation's sacred treasure. It possessed a supreme level of power. Today, it couldn't even kill a nameless brat. Furthermore, it had been crippled. How was this possible?
All of the officials were thinking the same thing as Mu Daiyu. For a moment, they all felt that Chen Jiu was too terrifying. They all began to ponder about this self-sacrificing hero. They needed to redefine him.
"What Life Root? It's nothing but dog shit." Chen Jiu sneered. He stepped forward, directly attacking the tree. His figure was like a glazed war god. He stepped through time and space, passing through Yin and Yang. There was nothing he couldn't break, nothing he couldn't accomplish.
With a single punch, his Qi pierced through the river of stars. The powerful Life Tree's trunk was directly pierced through.
"No! My Sacred Pillar, Life War God, go berserk!" Mu Daiyu had gone crazy. She couldn't accept this result. As she roared, the entire Life Tree's crown burst into flames.
As the tree burned, it became even more violent, almost like a giant as it swung its trunk and crown viciously toward Chen Jiu. The Cosmos Cuckoo, the stars and the moon were no longer present, and the violent aura of life force could destroy anything and everything in its path.
"Haha, break …" Chen Jiu was in high spirits. With the protection of the Dragon Heart Mirror and his holy might, he was completely fearless. Even though this was only a defensive holy tool, as long as he was powerful enough, he could turn its defense into an attack. This was similar to how a steel plate could be used as a defensive weapon, but it could also be used to injure someone.
"Rumble …" In the air, the battle was intense. Under the spreading chaos, the battle soon ended. Chen Jiu stepped on the Tree of Life that was riddled with holes and declared his victory.
"I've lost …" At this point, Mu Daiyu had no choice but to admit this fact. Following the collapse of his will, the entire tree once again turned back into the root of life. It hung in the air, and many of its bark had fallen off. It was severely injured.
"Mu Daiyu, you've humiliated me time and time again. Only death can atone for your sins …" Chen Jiu's eyes were filled with killing intent as he glared at the emperor beneath his feet.
"Have mercy …" A few shouts of alarm rang out. Suddenly, a deep and resounding voice shook the ground.
