418: The Great War Begins

Instantly, the sky full of Blazing Sun teleported directly in front of the Tree Demons.

"Di Yan, quickly attack with me!"

"Qing Xuan Domain!"

The Qing Xuan Tree Demon immediately sensed a strong crisis emanating from the Blazing Sun.

Without thinking further, he immediately deployed the Qing Xuan Domain. Endless emerald green spiritual light enveloped an area of ten miles, and countless towering giant trees suddenly appeared, growing thick branches that filled the sky.

These branches transformed into various Yao Beast phantoms and lunged directly towards the Blazing Sun.

"Yes, Clan Chief!"

"Di Yan Profound Domain!"

The Di Yan Tree Demon, who was at the Integration Eighth Layer Realm, also activated his Domain upon hearing this, causing the earth within a ten-mile radius to seem alive.

Endless earthen Power of Law manifested, and the surrounding gravity instantly changed. At the same time, countless Earth Dragons materialized, opening their ferocious jaws and attacking the Blazing Sun.

But right at this moment, the Blazing Sun instantly changed direction, attacking the Dao Integration Realm Tree Demons directly.

The attacks of the two demons missed their target.

"What?

This Human brat's target isn't us, but our clansmen in the Dao Integration Realm!"

Only then did the Qing Xuan Tree Demon realize what was happening.

Unfortunately, it was too late. The endless Blazing Sun exploded instantly, and dazzling red light engulfed the Dao Integration Realm Tree Demons hidden nearby.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, those Tree Demons were directly blasted into ashes, and multiple bottomless giant pits appeared on the ground.

"Damn Human Race!

How dare you kill so many people of my clan!

You have angered me!"

The Qing Xuan Tree Demon's expression turned ugly, and he activated the Qing Xuan Domain again.

The Yao Beast phantoms from before reformed into Wood Dragons tens of thousands of feet in size, charging toward Su Yun.

The Di Yan Tree Demon also activated the Di Yan Profound Domain, releasing endless Earth Dragons, which charged toward Su Yun along with the Wood Dragons.

The Domains of the two great Tree Demons seemed to cooperate at this moment, instantly strengthening the surrounding Power of Law several times over.

"Domains that cooperate with each other?

Interesting!"

Su Yun's Divine Sense had been observing the every move of the two Tree Demons.

Immediately after, he swung the Flowing Cloud Sword again, releasing endless Blazing Sun, which violently collided with the Earth Dragons and Wood Dragons released by the two Tree Demons.

Dazzling spiritual light enveloped an area spanning dozens of miles.

The nearby ground also began to constantly shatter.

Roaring explosions continuously echoed.

The Cultivators who had been behind Su Yun had retreated dozens of miles away as soon as Su Yun attacked the Enlightenment Realm Tree Demons.

Even so, they were still terrified by the exchange between Su Yun and the two Enlightenment Realm Tree Demons:

"My goodness, is this the great battle between Enlightenment Realms?

Luckily we retreated in time, otherwise the Residual Spiritual Power alone could have killed us!"

"So the Taixuan Holy Son is really that powerful!

He's actually gaining the upper hand against two High-level Enlightenment Tree Demons?"

"Now the Enlightenment Realm Tree Demons are blocked by the Taixuan Holy Son, and the Dao Integration Realm Tree Demons have been eliminated.

It's time for us to deal with the remaining Soul Transformation and Soul Emergence Realm Tree Demons hiding nearby.

These lower Realm Tree Demons don't seem able to control the Ancient Restriction, so we can handle them!"

"We can finally get revenge! Die, detestable Tree Demon Clan!"

...The Cultivators, their hearts filled with pent-up anger, unleashed their strongest Spells, attacking the Tree Demons hiding around them.

"They are merely Outside Cultivators, and not numerous!

But our Tree Demon Clan has many more people, so the advantage is ours!

Everyone attack together!"

A Extreme Frost Tree Demon at the Nascent Soul Tenth Layer Realm immediately shouted to his clansmen upon seeing the approaching Cultivators.

"Yes, let's go together! We can definitely take care of these Outside Cultivators!"

"Go to hell!

Outside Cultivators!"

"Let us show you the power of our Tree Demon Clan!"

"Charge! Kill these Outside Cultivators, and the Clan Chief will surely reward us handsomely!"

...The nearby Tree Demons also transformed into streaks of flowing light, fiercely engaging in battle with the Cultivators.

Although the overall number of Tree Demons inside the Mysterious Fruit Forest was not large, they still outnumbered the Outside Cultivators somewhat.

After just dozens of breaths of combat, the Cultivators gained the upper hand, forcing the Tree Demons to retreat steadily.

After all, these were all young powerhouses from major outside forces.

Their individual strengths could not be underestimated.

Just like that, a fierce battle unfolded... Meanwhile.

Outside the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

Many powerhouses from Major Forces gathered at the Tianyao Tower. From the Tianyao Tower, they could clearly observe the situation at the entrance of the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

They had all arrived early, waiting for their juniors or Disciples to emerge from the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

After all, almost seven days had passed, and those younger generation Cultivators who were exploring were probably about to come out soon.

Just then, the Ancient Restriction on the periphery of the Mysterious Fruit Forest suddenly burst forth with dazzling light. Countless complex Law spiritual runes appeared, continuously absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within a radius of hundreds of miles.

Such a huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of all the powerhouses.

"What happened?"

"Why did this Ancient Restriction suddenly undergo such a massive change?"

"Could it be that the juniors have come out?"

"But it hasn't even been seven days yet!"

"Fellow Daoists, don't worry, nothing should be wrong. It's probably just a minor anomaly in the Ancient Restriction of the Mysterious Fruit Forest."

A Blue-robed Yaochi Elder quickly stepped forward and explained to everyone.

Although she also didn't understand what had happened.

But the Mysterious Fruit Forest, which hadn't shown any anomalies for thousands of years, surely wouldn't have any problems now.

Perhaps the Ancient Restriction had been running for too long and lacked spiritual power, so it started automatically absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Moreover, the Saintess of their Holy Land hadn't contacted them, so presumably nothing unusual had occurred.

Thinking of this, the Blue-robed Yaochi Elder immediately sent a voice transmission to another Yaochi Elder responsible for opening the entrance passage to the Mysterious Fruit Forest.

Although the Ancient Restriction on the periphery of the Mysterious Fruit Forest was not set up by their Jade Pool Holy Land, they possessed a Restriction Token, which allowed them to view the general situation of the outer Ancient Restriction.

A moment later, a White-robed Elder of the Jade Pool arrived at the entrance of the Mysterious Fruit Forest, took out the Restriction Token, and began trying to sense what was happening.

But soon, her expression turned ugly.

The Restriction Token in her hand merely flickered before dimming, as if it had lost its function.

The remaining Yaochi Elders at the Tianyao Tower saw this and immediately flashed over to the White-robed Elder of the Jade Pool, asking with confusion:

"What's going on?"

"This Restriction Token can no longer control the Ancient Restriction on the periphery of the Mysterious Fruit Forest!"

"How is this possible?

Wasn't it fine just before?"

"Could some unforeseen change have occurred?"

The change in expression of the Yaochi Elders could not be hidden from the powerhouses of the Major Forces.

They immediately realized something was wrong, flashed down from the Tianyao Tower to the entrance of the Mysterious Fruit Forest, and anxiously asked the Yaochi Elders:

"Fellow Daoists of the Jade Pool Holy Land, what has happened?"

"Has something gone wrong?"

"Hurry up and tell us!

If something truly went wrong, your Jade Pool Holy Land won't be able to bear the responsibility!"
