174: Go to the World Tree

Shi Feng looked at the Fox with a stunned expression; he knew Ye Ze was strong, but he never expected him to be so incredibly powerful!

At this moment, he was finally convinced.

"Lord Ye Ze, I was very presumptuous before, please forgive me!" Shi Feng said in a muffled voice.

Ye Ze waved his hand, but his gaze was fixed on the vast sea in front of him.

The seawater frozen by the Fox suddenly exploded, and a Dragon claw grabbed at the Fox.

"Phantom Steps!"

The Fox directly dodged the Dragon claw's attack.

Immediately after, the entire ice layer began to shatter, and a massive Sea Dragon appeared with an imposing aura, black flames burning on its body, and a pair of scarlet Dragon eyes fixed on Ye Ze.

"How dare you slaughter my subordinates like this!" the Sea Dragon said coldly.

Eye of Insight!

"Sea Beast - Sea Dragon (Level 69)!"

Clearly, this was not an ordinary sixth-tier Demon, but a Demon about to enter the seventh-tier, and one that possessed World Power!

Ye Ze's heart stirred: "Zero!"

Zero gently shook the Fire Tipped Spear in his hand and thrust it towards the Sea Dragon.

A hint of disdain flashed in the Sea Dragon's eyes, and its Dragon claw suddenly exerted force, directly swatting the Fire Tipped Spear away.

Little did it know, this was precisely Zero's objective.

"Detecting weakness… weakness locked!"

A red light suddenly brightened in Zero's eyes, and using the force of the Sea Dragon's claw strike, he leaped and flipped directly onto the Sea Dragon's back.

The Sea Dragon also didn't expect Zero to be so fast.

"Damn ant, get off me!" The scales on the Sea Dragon's back rippled, sweeping towards Zero's foot.

But Zero's body remained motionless, and the Fire Tipped Spear in his hand directly pierced into the Sea Dragon's neck!

"Aow!" The Sea Dragon let out a painful cry, its body began to twist wildly, trying to shake Zero off.

Zero clutched the Fire Tipped Spear tightly: "Come out!"

The Fire Tipped Spear passed through the Sea Dragon's neck, bringing out a white tendon.

The scales on the Sea Dragon's body continuously cut Zero's foot, even sparking.

Zero, however, ignored it, clutching the pulled-out tendon tightly, and then lightly shouted: "Come out!"

The Sea Dragon's body suddenly stiffened; with the Dragon tendon caught by Zero, its vital spot was seized.

If it were anyone else, even if they had seized the Dragon tendon, they might not have had enough strength to pull it out.

But Zero was different.

His four dimensions had already exceeded 2200 points!

And the Sea Dragon's sharp scales also had no effect; the final result was that Zero, in front of everyone, forcibly pulled out the Sea Dragon's Dragon tendon!

Ye Ze couldn't help but grin; what a cyber Nezha pulling out a Dragon tendon! This scene was truly rare.

As the Sea Dragon's massive body crashed into the sea, Ye Ze once again gained a meager amount of World Power.

"We won! We really won!!!"

Countless Spirit Demon Clan members wept with joy.

Ye Ze's goal was not limited to this; to be honest, he was extremely disappointed that the Sea Dragon's death did not drop any essence fragments.

Currently, Ye Ze needed a large amount of source power, but unfortunately, despite killing so many sixth-tier Sea Beasts, he hadn't seen many true Demons.

"Have this place repaired. Shi Feng, you will guard here with the Shi Yue Clan, no problem, right?" Ye Ze turned to look at Shi Feng.

Shi Feng immediately patted his chest: "Of course no problem! As long as one member of my Shi Yue Clan is still alive, Moon Shadow City will not fall!"

"Very good!" Ye Ze nodded, then looked at the Moon Rabbit: "Take me to see the World Tree!"

"World Tree?" The Moon Rabbit couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Ye Ze, are you serious?"

Ye Ze nodded; he had a strong premonition that the World Tree would surely give him a great surprise!

Perhaps he could obtain a second world tree crown!

Seeing that Ye Ze was not joking, the Moon Rabbit hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying:

"I can take you there! But that place has been corrupted by Demons, and I can't guarantee whether we can reach it!"

"Let's go!" Ye Ze didn't waste any more words, turning and walking out.

The Moon Rabbit grumbled under her breath but quickly followed.

As they traveled, the Moon Rabbit led Ye Ze to a plain.

"What a pity!" Ye Ze sighed lightly.

The Moon Rabbit looked at the surrounding environment with a hint of disappointment in her eyes:

"This was the Endless Sea of Flowers, once the most beautiful place in the entire Shan Hai World. Every year when the flowers bloomed, many demon spirits would wander among them, looking like a painting."

The beautiful scene described by the Moon Rabbit had now turned pitch black, countless plants had become like charcoal, completely devoid of beauty.

"Ye Ze, the World Tree must be full of Demons. Currently, the Shan Hai World cannot give you any help. Why don't you wait a little longer?

If Grandpa White Lin wakes up, the Spirit Demon Clan can help you clear these Demons!" The Moon Rabbit tried to dissuade Ye Ze.

Ye Ze, however, shook his head: "Don't worry! I have a way!"

The Fire Tipped Spear in Zero's hand never stopped, its sharp attacks continuously reaping the surrounding Demons.

And these low-tier Demons truly couldn't pique Ye Ze's interest.

"So hot!" Ye Ze looked up ahead, a scorching aura suddenly assailing him.

A hint of solemnity flashed in the Moon Rabbit's eyes: "Ahead is the Demon Flame River!"

"Demon Flame River?" Ye Ze murmured.

The Moon Rabbit quickly explained: "The Demon Flame River is where volcanoes in the Shan Hai World erupted due to Demon corruption. These lava flows, mixed with Demonic aura, have crisscrossed and corrupted the entire land."

"Within these lava flows, there are also some unique Demons. Once you enter, you won't just be attacked by Demons, you'll also have to endure the toxic aura around!" The Moon Rabbit glanced at Ye Ze: "So, let's go back!"

Ye Ze looked up.

At this moment, he stood on a cliff edge, in front of a huge basin. Within the basin were dark red ravines, and black gases drifted throughout the entire basin.

"That's it?" Ye Ze chuckled lightly: "Simon!"

Simon looked at the scene before him, not only without any discomfort but instead with a hint of nostalgia: "This smell, it's quite similar to the Demon World!"

Ye Ze waved to the Moon Rabbit: "Let's go!"

"But…" The Moon Rabbit didn't expect Ye Ze to use such a simple and crude method, but before she could finish speaking, Simon suddenly flapped his wings.

The Demon Dragon carried Ye Ze and the Moon Rabbit soaring in mid-air.

The Moon Rabbit looked down; the Demon Flame River was like a huge scar embedded in the Endless Sea of Flowers.

Ye Ze possessed the World Spirit Pearl and had an inexplicable connection to the world. Looking at the Endless Sea of Flowers, he could vaguely feel that the land here seemed to be crying.

This strengthened Ye Ze's resolve to purify this place.

"Whoosh!"

Just as the Demon Dragon was about to fly over the Demon Flame River with Ye Ze, a sharp gust of energy went straight for Simon's abdomen.

"Bastard!" The Demon Dragon cursed angrily, then forcibly twisted its massive body, narrowly dodging the attack.

"Hehe, where did this foolish Dragon come from, daring to fly freely in my Cloud Hidden Clan's territory! You're practically seeking death!" Along with a cold snort, a beast covered in milky-white feathers appeared.

The Moon Rabbit looked at the beast in front of her with a stunned expression, her body suddenly trembling: "Cloud Hidden Clan! There's a Cloud Hidden Clan here, Ye Ze, let's run!"

"Run?" Ye Ze looked up at the Cloud Hidden Clan member in front of him.

It had to be said, the Cloud Hidden Clan looked quite good; its milky-white feathers emitted a faint glow, making it seem somewhat sacred.

"Cloud Hidden Clan - Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture (Level 71)!"

A seventh-tier Demon King!

"Oh? There's even a human? Haha! You're killing me! You foolish Dragon, you're not a human's summoned beast, are you!" The Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture laughed loudly.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Simon's eyes.

For other demon races, the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture might have some suppressive power, but for Simon, this guy daring to challenge his authority was simply seeking death!

"Annihilation Black Flame!"

Black flames exploded around the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture.

The Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture, however, merely shook its body casually; Simon's attack clearly caused it no harm.

"Ye Ze, run! The Cloud Hidden Clan is powerful, invincible in aerial combat! Fighting it here now means certain death!" The Moon Rabbit quickly looked at Ye Ze.

Ye Ze's gaze was fixed on the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture.

Being able to easily resolve Simon's attack, this guy indeed had something.

However, that was all!

"Since you're seeking death, I'll grant it to you!" Ye Ze said in a deep voice to the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture.

"Haha! Human, you're so arrogant! I hope you're still this arrogant in a moment!" The Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture sneered, clearly not taking Ye Ze's words to heart.

And at this moment, the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture suddenly felt an extreme sense of danger.

Although it spoke tough, its reaction was by no means slow, retreating swiftly.

But at this very moment, a cold light flashed past its body from behind, as if it had been precisely calculated to appear at that position.

"No, impossible!" A hint of surprise flashed in the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture's eyes as it tried to flap its wings.

But its body slowly split apart, falling from mid-air.

The Mantis's figure flashed past in mid-air.

In the face of the God-Slaying Strike, even a seventh-tier Demon King like the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture found it hard to resist.

"Killed seventh-tier Demon King Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture, gained experience +680,000 (+200%)!"

It had to be said, the experience from a seventh-tier Demon King was quite substantial; Ye Ze glanced at his experience bar, he was about to level up again!

In addition to experience, Ye Ze also gained a very special piece of equipment.

"Cloud Walker (Shoes): Allows one to walk on the wind and freely traverse the myriad worlds."

Currently, every time Ye Ze flew through the air, he still needed to borrow the Panda's strength, but with these shoes, he wouldn't need to go through that trouble.

The Cloud Walker shoes were not only powerful in effect but also very comfortable to wear.

With a gentle tap of his foot, Ye Ze felt his body slowly float up. Fortunately, it wasn't Ye Ze's first time flying, so he had some experience and could easily master it after a bit of practice.

The Moon Rabbit looked at Ye Ze with a shocked expression.

She hadn't even reacted to what had just happened!

A seventh-tier Demon King, the Rage Cloud Dragon Vulture, just died like that? And it was the Cloud Hidden Clan, known for being invincible in aerial combat!

Looking at Ye Ze's calm and composed demeanor, the Moon Rabbit increasingly felt that Ye Ze's strength was deeply hidden, but this, on the contrary, filled her heart with infinite hope.

Perhaps Ye Ze's promise was true!

He truly had the ability to save the Shan Hai World!

"Let's go!" Ye Ze floated beside Simon, carried by the wind, and turned to the Moon Rabbit.

The Moon Rabbit nodded numbly; at this moment, she finally stopped trying to dissuade Ye Ze and instead seriously guided the way forward.

After passing through the Demon Flame River, Demon activity became more frequent, and their strength also grew stronger.

"Oh no!" The Moon Rabbit looked ahead, her face somewhat pale.

"Hehe, I didn't expect anyone to come here!"

"Let me see, oh? It's a human?"

As two playful voices sounded, the figures of the Demon army also appeared before Ye Ze.

Leading them were two tall Demons.

Ye Ze opened his Eye of Insight.

"Lu Shu (Level 65) Type: King-tier Demon!"

"Xuan Turtle (Level 68) Type: King-tier Demon!"

Seeing these prompts, Ye Ze's eyes couldn't help but light up.

These were genuine Demons! This meant they were very likely to drop essence fragments!

The Moon Rabbit's body was trembling slightly at this moment, looking at the dense crowd of Demons in front of her, her heart filled with despair: "Ye Ze, I'll find a way to send you away, you must save the Shan Hai World!"

As she spoke, the Moon Rabbit's eyes were incredibly firm.

Ye Ze glanced at her: "Leave? Of course not!"

Ye Ze wouldn't just watch these two essence fragments slip away from his grasp! Absolutely not!

"Panda!" Ye Ze said softly.

The Panda slowly took a step forward.

Lu Shu sneered, shaking the long blade in his hand: "My body's been rusting here! Let me have a good fight with you!"

The long blade erupted with dazzling light, slashing towards the Panda's body.

The Panda remained motionless, as if intimidated by the strike.

"Boring!" A fierce glint flashed in Lu Shu's eyes, even anticipating the next second when the Panda would be cut in half!

"Clang!"

Lu Shu's blade struck the Panda's body, but the long blade shattered into two halves!

"What?" A hint of shock flashed in Lu Shu's eyes.

And the Panda's fist had already landed on his face!

"Killed King-tier Demon Lu Shu, gained experience +30,000 (+200%)!"

Ye Ze was more concerned about the essence fragment.

Fortunately, it finally dropped this time!

"Essence Fragment - Lu Shu!"

A smile appeared on Ye Ze's lips: "Next up is you!"

The Xuan Turtle also didn't expect Lu Shu to be instantly killed without any resistance, a look of solemnity flashed across its face, and it slammed the shield in its hand forward.

The ground seemed to shake slightly, showing the immense power of the shield in the Xuan Turtle's hand.

The Panda, however, didn't even look, slowly raising its fist.

It was just a King-tier Demon, completely powerless before the Panda.

"Brutal Charge!" The Xuan Turtle roared, charging towards the Panda with its heavy shield.

The attacks of both sides instantly collided, producing a loud bang that echoed in the air…
