Jiang Fan was secretly shocked.
Is this the power of a Great Cultivator at the stage of Heavenly Person Four Declines?
Just the aura it exudes carries an invincible might that could sweep away all obstacles!
Fortunately, the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree is not something to be trifled with.
The Pill Pearl in its eye, containing the origin of Venerate Wutong, emitted a verdant green light.
Wherever the light shone, it immediately calmed the storms.
On one side was a raging storm, on the other side, tranquility.
The two were clearly separated by the boundary of the green light.
In the next instant.
Venerable Lianjing vanished from sight, while at the same time, the roots of the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree turned into untraceable shadows.
Even Jiang Fan, who utilized the Wind Origin, found it difficult to sense the trajectory of their airflow.
But from the occasional burst of destructive light, it could be seen that the two were fiercely contesting.
Pow!
Boom!
The arcs of light splattering in all directions.
Even the mysterious demon liquid, which the five Demon Venerables couldn’t break through, was like a thin sheet in the face of the residual arcs of light.
Effortlessly pierced through, opening holes one after another.
The five Demon Venerables, stuck, turned pale, each one of them fearful.
If even one of those arcs hit them, aside from perhaps Wuyu Venerable and Red Dust Venerable surviving,
the other three Venerables would be doomed.
Jiang Fan also grew pale, hurriedly protecting Wutong Venerate’s remains, taking cover behind the ginkgo tree.
But, where can be safe in such a battle between Venerables of this level?
A remnant flash of light carved a long, dark crack in the void, shooting directly toward Jiang Fan.
It was too fast, giving Jiang Fan no time to react.
Pow!
Suddenly, a root flew over, blocking the remnant light.
The ginkgo tree was shielding them.
The root broke with a sound, spraying milky white sap.
Jiang Fan’s heart sank.
In the battle of the strong, how could one afford to be distracted?
Moreover, the ginkgo tree was already no match for Venerable Lianjing?
Swish!
Dull sounds came from the sky, several roots consecutively got chopped off.
Soon after, a tremendous crash echoed, the tree crown of the ginkgo tree was shaved down by half.
A large spray of tree sap splattered like rain.
The trunk trembled violently, the remaining few roots emerged, powerless to continue fighting.
"You dare to be distracted?"
Venerable Lianjing appeared, clad in a black long skirt.
Her fair right hand gripped a serrated, peculiar long sword, which emanated an astonishingly powerful spiritual pressure.
It was clearly a Top-grade Spirit Sword!
The ginkgo tree raised its last remaining root, enveloping Jiang Fan and Venerate Wutong’s body, its voice weak:
"Alas, I am but an ordinary tree. Had I any bit of Divine Tree potential, I wouldn’t have received my master’s legacy only to be defeated at your hands."
Venerable Lianjing didn’t deny it.
The ginkgo tree before her had inherited all the origin from a Heavenly Person Five Decays Supreme.
If it had fully absorbed it, it would have become a new generation Supreme within five hundred years.
She carried the saw-tooth sword to the ginkgo tree’s eye, said flatly:
"Surrender your origin yourself, and I will spare your life."
The ginkgo tree gave a bitter smile: "Taking away my origin would deprive me of my Spiritual Wisdom, turning me into the most ordinary of trees."
"No one in this world would be left to protect my master."
"In that case, better to kill me."
