352: Can you cut down Jianmu?

Chapter 352: How Dare You Try to Cut Down the Jianmu Tree?

Since it was a foundational template, it likely still harbored the major flaw of the “Achilles’ Heel.”

So, he stepped on his Flying Sword and quickly approached the Wang Family mansion.

“It really is you!”

Wu Xian was secretly amazed as he watched Old Master Wang on the rooftop, holding a black crossbow, aiming and charging it.

“Brother Xian, you came at just the right time,” Wang Xiaocong said excitedly, “My Old Master’s God-Slaying Crossbow is so powerful!”

“God-Slaying Crossbow?” Wu Xian was stunned.

Wang Fengnian smiled slightly and nodded to Wu Xian. “This person is already doomed; you can rest assured. Let me use the God-Slaying Crossbow to make him leak more Qi, and the twisted erosion will teach him a lesson.”

Wu Xian nodded slightly. He had previously speculated that his grandfather, Wu Mingchang, had resisted the Upper Realm people back then.

As his grandfather’s comrade-in-arms, Old Master Wang naturally knew the various weaknesses of the Upper Realm people.

“Perhaps you could find an angle to snipe his heel,” Wu Xian suggested.

“His heel?” Wang Fengnian was puzzled.

“Through my investigation with the Listening ability, I vaguely discovered that this person’s power weakness is in his heel,” Wu Xian casually made up a reason.

“Is that so?” Wang Fengnian was surprised. “Left foot or right foot?”

This question really stumped Wu Xian.

“The left foot is more likely.” According to some related records from his previous life, the left foot was more probable, but Wu Xian couldn’t be sure.

After all, in most data and literature, it was not explicitly stated whether Achilles’ Heel was the left or right foot.

“Anyway, there are only two heels, just shoot both of them and it’ll be over,” Wang Xiaocong said with a laugh.

Wu Xian and Wang Fengnian exchanged glances and laughed wryly… In the high sky above Yaoyang City.

The Upper Realm man, holding a spear and a round shield, had firmly suppressed Cui Wenxuan, but he was somewhat bothered by the harassment of various mechanical artillery and lasers.

The twisted erosion on his forehead, fingers, and wrists also made him increasingly uncomfortable.

What surprised him even more was that the painting spirit clones he had released were successively defeated by Governor Yang and others.

At this moment, a group of powerful scrolls such as the Eight-Armed Demon Ape, King of Lava, Divine Martial Venerable, and Bone Ancestral Barbarian were all attacking him.

This situation greatly alarmed him.

One must know that, normally, the scroll clones condensed by Upper Realm people using Divine Power templates were quite a bit stronger than the same scrolls held by Lower Realm people.

But at this moment, his painting spirit clones had all been defeated.

“What, you wouldn’t think that relying solely on those Divine Power scroll clones could still bully the current Lower Realm people, would you?” Governor Yang mocked, “Times have changed, Upper Realm fool~!”

Times were developing, and the Lower Realm people were strengthening in all aspects.

The condensation of the Fate Marks in the Hero Tower, and the extreme pursuit of scroll mastery by countless “human-pillar” Spirit Masters.

Coupled with the amplification brought by the God-Forged Factors of the Four Great True Gods today.

It was no longer a situation where Upper Realm people could casually crush them.

Moreover, many of the scroll templates controlled by the Upper Realm had already been eliminated by the times.

The current Lower Realm had also seen the emergence of various new and powerful original scrolls.

For example, Cui Wenxuan’s Evil-Suppressing Immortal Master series.

“It has to be said, the amplification brought by the God-Forged Factor is truly quite significant!”

Governor Yang fought with increasing ferocity. The Eight-Armed Demon Ape and the King of Lava, under his control, displayed astonishing combat power.

Although they were old-model scrolls, their mastery had been pushed to the extreme by him.

However, even facing such a large encirclement, the Upper Realm man remained strong, though the twisted erosion on various parts of his body spread more and more severely.

At this moment, the Upper Realm man obviously realized that something was wrong.

Looking at the Wang Family’s dogs, most of them had already been cleaned up.

He subconsciously wanted to report the situation to the Upper Realm, but found that the heaven and earth and space here had been completely sealed, and no message could be transmitted.

“Is it because of that Divine Tree?”

The Upper Realm man frowned and immediately began to approach the Jianmu Tree, attempting to cut down that gold scroll Divine Tree.

However, after several powerful attacks, the Divine Tree remained motionless.

Vigorous vitality continuously surged from within the Jianmu Tree, endless and continuous. With his strength, he could naturally detect that the vigorous vitality behind the Divine Tree was not right.

It was very likely from the so-called Azure Tree King in the Green Desert.

Bang!

Just as he was going mad, a sharp pain struck from his foot, and the Divine Power template within him seemed to deflate, instantly becoming restless and chaotic.

“What?!”

The Upper Realm man turned pale with fright, his entire being plunged into a fear he had never experienced before.

Clearly, he didn’t even know that such a fatal weakness existed in his own Divine Power template.

Fortunately, he still had other Divine Power templates supporting him, so he didn’t collapse directly because of this.

“What do you mean? You, Achilles, still want to try a Heaven-Defying move?” Wu Xian chuckled mockingly. “Is the Jianmu Tree something you can cut down? Are you worthy?”

The Wang Family grandfather and grandson next to him exchanged excited glances. “It really is a weakness!”

On the battlefield above, seeing the Upper Realm man’s aura suddenly weaken, Governor Yang and Cui Wenxuan and others were both surprised and delighted.

They immediately intensified their efforts to encircle and suppress him.

As the Upper Realm man’s expression flickered between gloomy and bright, his gaze vaguely caught sight of a group of special people.

He saw that in the battlefield not far away, several mad dogs of the Wang Family were being pressed to the ground and rubbed by a group of peculiar Spirit Masters.

These Spirit Masters clearly weren’t using scrolls, yet powerful scroll auras flowed from their bodies, and various energy phantoms resembling scroll painting spirits appeared around them.

“That is…?!”

The Upper Realm man grew more alarmed the more he looked, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

“Wait,” the Upper Realm man blurted out in a fluster, “What’s going on with those people? How did they do that?”

Unfortunately, Cui Wenxuan and Governor Yang and others completely ignored him, single-mindedly focused on encircling their prey.

“Damn it!” The Upper Realm man roared back, but his gaze was always drawn to the tattooed warriors. “As long as you hand those people over to me, I can spare your lives, and today’s matter can be written off!

It’s not even a problem to let you ascend to the Upper Realm!”

As soon as these words came out, Governor Yang and the others were visibly stunned.

They initially thought it was a delaying tactic by the opponent, but seeing the Upper Realm man’s fanatical gaze, it didn’t seem like a joke.

“You may not understand how important the situation of those people is to the Upper Realm,” the Upper Realm man said excitedly, “But it doesn’t matter, you will understand once you ascend to the Upper Realm.

Believe me, this astonishing discovery is enough to change the fate of all of you!”

“Do you think I’m stupid?”

Governor Yang snorted coldly, a hint of hatred in his eyes.

His Old Ancestor back then had fallen to his death because he had foolishly believed the Upper Realm’s “empty promises.”

Seeing that the crowd wouldn’t listen, the Upper Realm man was frantic. “A bunch of ungrateful fools!”

At this moment, he had been blinded by this groundbreaking merit, with only the tattooed warriors left in his eyes.

“Such a Heaven-Defying opportunity to change fate would be wasted on you. Since that’s the case, then I shall enjoy it alone—!”

The Upper Realm man inexplicably began to go berserk, disregarding the twisted erosion all over his body.

Under his furious onslaught, Governor Yang and the others were briefly suppressed.

Fortunately, the twisted erosion on the Upper Realm man’s body also began to rapidly worsen, his entire body quickly covered in dense black patterns.

Below the chaotic battle, Wu Xian was also preparing to seize the opportunity to intervene.

A miniature Laurel Tree appeared behind him, providing him with a continuous stream of spiritual energy. At the same time, the Seven Mansions of the White Tiger’ Seven Star Lords slowly emerged.

Buzz~!

Backed by the immense spiritual power of the Laurel Branch, an ancient starry sky instantly opened up in the sky above Yaoyang City.

Everyone present was startled by the aura of that starry sky.

At this moment, a sound of breaking air exploded in the sky above Yaoyang City. As the sound burst, the Upper Realm man’s head also exploded like a watermelon, and the scene instantly fell silent.

“Uh, does the White Tiger Sacred Spirit have some special effect on Upper Realm people?”

Wu Xian was stunned and bewildered. After all, he had just opened up the starry sky, and the White Tiger Sacred Spirit hadn’t even shown a single hair yet.

Looking behind the Upper Realm man whose head had blossomed, a sole of a foot, imbued with terrifying spiritual power, slowly retracted, revealing a muscular man with white hair and a weathered face.
