The new rank 7 Great Emperor of the Mushroom World, Black-Gold Tree Emperor Wall, was currently using a tactic of attrition. He led his army to wear down the defenses of the seven fortresses, just like how the Sorcerer World's allied forces had been attacking the Central Divine Capital for the past few decades.
However, he did not think that the Sorcerer World would suddenly produce a few Emperor-level experts and counterattack. This was because this was the main world of the Mushroom People. Under the suppression of the main world's origin will, no Sorcerer could become a new rank 7 Shaman King in this world.
This was the home field advantage. Wall was very confident that he could defeat the Sorcerer World's invaders and then cut off the allied forces' reinforcements. He would trap the main forces of the allied forces in this world and finally kill them.
For this reason, the chief guardian had always used a tactic of surrounding the main forces of the Sorcerer World's allied forces in the plains of the world. He only harassed and surrounded them, but never launched a large-scale attack. A decisive battle was even more impossible.
The Black-Gold Tree Emperor's true form was a black-gold tree. It was one of the most powerful trees in the Mushroom People World. It had a black-gold body and was one of the most powerful trees of its rank. After becoming an Emperor, it became even more powerful. It had a total of eight main branches that were more than six kilometers long and eleven main roots that were more than ten kilometers long. These roots could dig deep into the ground and extract the earth's energy.
When facing a powerful opponent, it could retract the branches and roots to form a Black-Gold Tree Giant that was hundreds of meters tall. The huge black-gold branches formed a huge muscular arm that smashed into the seven fortresses. With a loud boom, a huge ripple appeared on the sturdy defensive barrier. A violent shockwave exploded along the impact.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "
Deafening explosions rang out one after another. This terrifying attack that could easily kill a group of rank 4 Sorcerers could not do anything to the defensive barrier of the fortress.
"You haven't taken down this fortress yet?"
A sharp voice appeared in Black-Gold Tree Emperor Wall's ears. The black-gold arm he raised paused. He slowly turned around and saw that the sky had been torn open. A light spot flew out of the crack and quickly turned into a petite figure that shone with a dazzling rainbow light.
"It's you, Bi Lin!"
The Black-Gold Tree Emperor was surprised when he saw this figure.
"Did His Majesty send you here?"
This petite figure that was emitting a dazzling seven-colored brilliance was even smaller than an ordinary person. Its appearance was like a flower fairy from many worlds. Its voice was also like a woman's, but its appearance was not that of a beautiful girl. Instead, it had a head that resembled a cicada's. A pair of huge compound eyes spewed out dazzling flames that swayed as it flew. Two pairs of light wings that were as thin as cicada's wings flapped in the air, leaving behind colorful brilliance traces that lingered in the air for a long time.
She quickly flew to the shoulder of the retreating Black-Gold Tree Monarch.
"His Majesty doesn't want to wait any longer. He asked me to bring the most precious treasure of our race. He's prepared to summon the projection of the Ancient Destroyer to destroy the seven fortresses in one fell swoop."
The Black-Gold Tree Emperor sighed.
"This is the last summoning. After using it, the treasure will shatter, and the Seven Great Fortresses will also shatter and become history. The spatial passage to the Sorcerer World will also disappear."
Bi Lin's petite body fluttered back and forth on his shoulder as her sharp voice rang out.
"This is exactly what His Majesty wants. Cut off their path of retreat and completely leave the main forces of the Sorcerer World in this world. As for other matters, His Majesty will worry about them. We don't need to care about them."
The Black-Gold Tree Emperor nodded and loudly said, "As you wish, I will cover you.
"As you wish, Your Majesty, I will cover you. Prepare to summon the projection of the Ancient Destroyer!"
Bi Lin's petite body turned into a dazzling streak of light and soared into the sky, stopping at an altitude of ten thousand meters. At some point, she had taken out a crystalline heart covered in black patterns. She opened her mouth and spat out a stream of colorful light into the heart. She then started chanting.
As the incantation rang out, the black patterns on the heart that had been injected with the colorful light began to light up. An indescribably oppressive aura slowly spread out.
The powerful adepts of the Seven Great Fortresses immediately noticed the abnormality in the sky, but there was nothing they could do about it. The Black-Gold Tree Emperor alone was enough to keep them trapped in the fortress, and now there was another suspected Grade 7 being here. They didn't dare to go out. They could only order for the backup array to be activated and prepare for an unknown attack.
However, as the chanting grew louder and louder, the black lines on the crystal heart grew brighter and brighter. Finally, it turned into a huge black sphere and exploded. Along with a strange sound, black pillars of light shot out from the sphere and extended in all directions. As the pillars of light turned back and forth, they quickly formed a wizard array with a diameter of more than a few kilometers, suspended in the air.
* Thump! *
An indescribable heartbeat suddenly rang out in the air. Every living being in a radius of several dozen kilometers could hear this heartbeat.
* Thump! *
Another heartbeat, but this one was even more oppressive and clear. It was as if some terrifying existence was approaching.
Vaguely, a high-pitched scream could be heard in the air. It seemed to come from very far away, passing through the air, the walls, and the powerful array. It drilled into the ears of all living beings.
"Success!"
Bi Lin let out a long sigh, turned around, and flew away from the area.
Below, the Black-Gold Tree Emperor Wall loudly ordered his subordinates to retreat from the area, leaving behind the many uneasy adepts and allied forces in the Seven Great Fortresses.
* Rumble! *
As the low rumbling continued to ring out in the sky, spots of gray light that resembled snow began to fall from the sky. An invisible pressure and attractive force bound these spots of gray light around the black array, forming a massive gray vortex.
The sky became even darker. The space within the black array began to distort as a massive silhouette slowly appeared.
It was a massive head that looked like a demon. Its external structure seemed to be made of dark red crystal, and it looked like a ferocious red crystal statue. There was a pair of curved horns on top of its head, with countless gray ghosts circling around them. Countless gray ghosts charged out and circled back.
Crimson flames spewed out of its massive eyes, giving off an intimidating aura.
As time passed, a trace of spirituality appeared in its eyes. The crimson flames also began to flow, following the gaze downwards.
* Boom! *
The massive Seventh Key Fortress's array, which had endured countless attacks from the Tree Emperor, suddenly sank. A massive claw imprint appeared on the transparent barrier of light. The claw imprint embedded itself deeply into the barrier, slowly but firmly pressing into it.
* Bang! *
As the adepts and soldiers within the Seven Great Fortresses breathed heavily in fear, this claw shattered the defensive array that had withstood the assault of the mushroommen for several years.
"It's done!"
The Tree Emperor laughed as he looked at the broken defenses of the Seven Great Fortresses.
"That damned turtle shell has finally been broken. My children, it's time to harvest these beautiful souls!"
He raised his head and looked at Bi Lin.
"Thank you, Sir Bi Lin, for bringing the Ancient Destroyer here. As a reward, you can take twenty percent of the souls after the fortress is breached!"
Bi Lin extended three fingers and said.
"I want thirty percent!"
"Twenty-five percent!"
"Deal!"
Just as they were haggling, strands of gold appeared in the distorted space above the gigantic Destroyer's head. They quickly formed complicated patterns, and the darkness that filled the air slowly brightened.
The crimson flames in the Ancient Destroyer's head, which was brimming with an aura of destruction, once again lit up and flowed.
This change immediately attracted the Tree Emperor's attention. He raised his head and looked at the Destroyer's head, which had caused his heart to palpitate for some reason. However, the faint gold in the sky did not seem to mind.
He loudly said, "Sir Bi Lin, please control the Destroyer. We still have a use for the Seven Great Fortresses. There's no need to destroy them!"
The Great Emperor called Bi Lin also sensed something. He raised his head and said in surprise, "No.
I didn't control the Destroyer to continue attacking … Wait, what's that gold color? "
Bi Lin's expression changed drastically.
"This new golden array isn't the power of the Ancient Destroyer?"
The Tree Emperor had already sensed that something was wrong.
Bi Lin quickly shook his head.
"No, the Ancient Destroyer controls the power of destruction. Although the nature of this golden array isn't clear, it's definitely not the power of the Ancient Destroyer."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure!"
The Tree Emperor's voice completely changed.
"Then …"
Just as he was about to ask more questions, a tearing sound came from the sky. Everyone looked up and saw the sky where the Destroyer was being torn apart. Accompanied by a loud rumble, an unimaginably powerful aura came crashing down. The entire world seemed to be frozen and still.
Apart from the Destroyer, the gigantic red crystal devil head let out a furious roar, the crimson flames in its eyes rapidly expanding.
Even higher up in the sky above the Destroyer, a black fissure several thousand meters long appeared out of thin air. A gigantic golden palm reached out from the edge of the fissure and pressed against it.
Boom!
Another giant palm stretched out and grabbed the other side of the spatial crack. Accompanied by an ear-piercing tearing sound, violent Void Energy gushed out of the crack, and an incomparably huge head with golden skin drilled out of the crack, looking down at everyone from above.
This giant's head alone was larger than the Destroyer and the Devil Emperor. As it gazed at the two streams of crimson flames that the Destroyer had unleashed, a hint of curiosity appeared on its face. It stretched out its hand, which was even larger than the Destroyer's, and pressed down.
Boom!
The golden palm that blotted out the sky shattered layer by layer. As it pressed down, the two streams of destructive crimson flames struck the golden palm, causing the space around it to tremble violently.
The golden palm forcefully resisted the crimson flames and grabbed the Destroyer's head. As everyone watched in shock, it closed its fingers.
"Bang!"
The Destroyer's head, which had been so ferocious just a moment ago, shattered, turning into black flames that flowed out of the golden fingers and turned into a violent tide of energy that spread out in all directions.
The Tree Emperor, who had been stunned by this scene, only came back to his senses when the violent tide of energy swept past him. This was the first time he heard his voice tremble.
"Nightmare!"
