All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes-Chapter 1565 - 316: Cangtian Is Dead, Xuan Shall Rise (Part 4)
But is the Immortal Seal really dismantled so easily by an Earth Vein Root?
[No, that’s not right! It’s not dismantling! I hit it! It doesn’t feel unreal; it’s just so effortlessly done it was as if it didn’t happen!] 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
[However, it never really gathered power to clash with me directly. That arm was just for show; what I hit... was merely a droplet in the river!]
The vast ocean, turbulent rivers—if one could harness their power, they could overturn mountains and seas, even shift stars and constellations. Yet in reality, even a mortal striking the waves would cause them to dent, break apart, pressured effortlessly.
Unity, unity—it must first be unified before it can be truly one. In reality, a single drop of water and an entire sea are fundamentally the same. When it comes to the same quality, a drop formed by concentration is undoubtedly terrifying, yet a sprawling sea has its peculiar significance!
Just like now, upon realizing that he only suppressed the Earth Vein Root in front of him, Bai Li immediately felt a ringing alarm in his heart, a deeply ominous premonition emerged.
—Indeed, these bizarre Earth Vein roots are formed by the Power of Earth, how could they possibly follow just the Hongjiang?
—It came with such ostentation precisely to capture my attention. It is a vast ocean; I’ve suppressed a portion of it, even if it’s the central part, so what? The whole Sect’s power is gathered in me, requiring hardly any strength—it can easily surpass me!
Without hesitation, Bai Li turned back immediately, stepping forward, ready to traverse the Great Void, returning to the Sect to guard the Mountain Gate.
But it was too late; in fact, as he leaped out and used the Immortal Seal to suppress the Earth Vein Root, on both banks of the Hongjiang, similar dark golden roots burst from the ground, surging like a tide, attacking Dingbo Mountain from left and right.
Though the Dingbo Mountain Gate Formation struggled to sustain, it was swiftly breached by the Earth Vein Root’s omnipotent force, breaking the Triple Array, leaving the remaining Four Layers teetering on the brink.
Simultaneously, countless bizarre Demon Monsters, emerging from tree roots, were continuously spawning from the earth, assaulting both inside and outside the Great Formation. Thanks to the Martial Artists of Dingbo Mountain who had been prepared, following the True Lord’s lead in relentless battles, they managed to hold the line.
Bai Li returned to the Mountain Gate in a single step, instantly restoring stability to the Great Formation. With a wave of his hand, he froze billions of Demon Monsters, yet he felt no relief, for should such a catastrophe fall upon the Sect’s land, even a victory would inevitably be a costly one, beyond his full ability to exert.
And just as Bai Li intended to command the Mountain Gate Formation to continue the resistance, all the Martial Artists of Dingbo Mountain suddenly felt the ground tremble, and by the time they reacted, they were stunned to discover the entire Dingbo Mountain had been lifted by a Tree Root Giant emerging from the Hongjiang riverbed!
With a long laugh, the giant tossed the whole Dingbo Mountain skyward, utterly severing the connection between the Mountain Gate Formation and the Earth Vein.
Not only that, it spread its arms wide, starting to gather the surrounding Earth Vein Power, condensing Divine Light, intending to destroy the entire Dingbo Mountain and all the people within from the most vulnerable base of the Great Formation.
But before it could begin concentrating power, with an angry roar, Bai Li descended from the sky, the Immortal Seal in his hand reappearing, pressing down toward the Tree Root Giant with the force of Mount Tai.
This strike, gathering all his might, as the Immortal Seal passed, everything seemed to become illusory, known as the only reality in the world, capable of subduing all.
Yet the giant, no, possibly better called as the Giant Gods, was even faster than him. Countless tree roots intertwined, astonishingly forming the same Dharma Seal as Bai Li, Immortal Seal against Immortal Seal, surprising Bai Li, the Tree Root Giant’s Dharma Seal shattered his, directly smashing his arms along with the sternum and heart, nearly piercing his body front to back!
[How is it possible—]
Bai Li was in disbelief. The Immortal Seal formed by the Tree Root Giant, although also an Immortal Seal, was more ancient, an original version unoptimized by later Dingbo Sect advancements. But in an instant after deploying, the Tree Root Giant’s Dharma Seal absorbed all the improvements made by Dingbo Sect over thirty thousand years, enhancing it even further!
But no time to think about that, gritting his teeth, Bai Li activated his Inner Array Realm, firmly locking the Tree Root Giant’s arm, and beyond that, he instantly accelerated the Jade Light Calming Wave Pearl within him, erupting all its inner Tao Rhyme at once, transforming himself into a seal, risking his own life, even the premature destruction of the Sect’s Daoist Soldier prototype to seal the opponent!
[Run quickly! This disaster is hard to overcome, preserve the Yuan Qi—]
Meanwhile, he exerted all his strength to shout, urging the sect disciples already flung into the sky, to quickly flee with the Cave Heaven, at least make their own escape: [I will hold this beast back!]
Instantly, above the Hongjiang, a brilliant, colorless sun lit up, just witnessing it was enough to obliterate souls and spirits.
A Heavenly Venerate about to ascend Lingxiao, even at Lingxiao, along with a Treasure Bead similarly ascending to a Daoist Soldier, self-destructing together, their shared Great Daoist Principles, rooted in their ancestral land honed over thirty thousand years, was almost incredible in power. Even a Heavenly Ancestor might have to give way somewhat.
[Perfect decision, but alas]
However, the Tree Root Giant displayed a countenance woven from chaotic tree roots, showing a smile that could be called ’pity’: [From the beginning, you were doomed to failure]
