The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2076: Fusion with the Primordial Chaos Tree

The ancient tree inheritance is the secret technique bestowed by the Primordial Chaos Tree to the Ancient Tree Elder, and it carries the essence of the supreme rules.

When Jing Yan’s mastery of the Ninth Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance broke through to the Tenth Layer, his aura changed correspondingly, and a more vast fluctuation of power spread invisibly. The originally severe injuries seemed to affect Jing Yan much less.

”That little bastard...” Luo Dejie was the first to sense the change in Jing Yan’s aura, and he displayed a look of surprise, staring at Jing Yan with a dazed expression.

”How could it be! Under such circumstances, he can still improve?” Luo Dejie exhaled, slightly in disbelief.

After Jing Yan familiarized himself slightly with the breakthrough of the ancient tree inheritance, he launched another attack on Luo Dejie.

The power of the Tenth Layer Ancient Tree Inheritance was indeed much more formidable than the Ninth Layer. When the sword light, fused with the ancient tree inheritance’s power, landed on the black halo surrounding Luo Dejie’s body, the black halo visibly trembled.

”Damn, it improved so much!” Luo Dejie felt the decrease in his energy and grit his teeth.

”A group of ants can’t stop me, Luo Dejie!” Luo Dejie roared angrily.

Of his six apostles, only one was still struggling now. However, Luo Dejie wasn’t very concerned. Even if all the apostles died, as long as he could seize this chaos and control it, the losses wouldn’t matter.

Luo Dejie launched a frenzied attack.

The ancient tree spirits and chaos creatures were dying one after another in battle. But no one retreated; everyone fought with all their might, attacking the extremely terrifying and powerful Luo Dejie.

After dozens of breaths, Luo Dejie’s aura strength had decreased by more than twenty percent. However, he remained powerful, and with each attack, at least one Controller-level strong individual fell.

”At this rate... we’ll still fail!” Jing Yan thought bitterly.

Though his ancient tree inheritance had broken through, his attacks still counted for little against Luo Dejie. Luo Dejie was simply too strong.

Time ticked by little by little.

Gradually, Luo Dejie had killed roughly half of the chaos creatures and ancient tree spirits. Even the Title Controllers had died more than five.

”What to do!”

”What should we do! At this rate, we really can’t kill Luo Dejie. He’ll kill us all and eventually succeed in devouring the Primordial Chaos Tree, seizing this chaos.” Jing Yan couldn’t help feeling a bit desolate.

As the battle continued, the damage to this chaos’s origin will became increasingly severe. The suppression of Luo Dejie by the Chaos Origin Will would also decrease. Ultimately, Luo Dejie would more easily swallow the Primordial Chaos Tree’s vitality.

”Haha, I will succeed! I, Luo Dejie, will achieve the Undying Immortal Body. It’s close; once I kill these vermin, there will be no more obstacles.” Luo Dejie laughed wildly.

Inside the Ancient Tree Space, the enormous trunk of the Primordial Chaos Tree was undergoing some changes. A halo of green light rose from the Primordial Chaos Tree, gradually converging. At the very top of the Primordial Chaos Tree, the green halo seemed like a cloud. This cloud was growing larger.

The cloud was filled with extremely abundant life force.

As the green halo poured out, the Primordial Chaos Tree’s vitality decreased accordingly. If someone were here, they would see that the color of the Primordial Chaos Tree was gradually turning from green to gray. The many leaves on the Primordial Chaos Tree were gradually withering, eventually turning to dust.

No one knew how much time had passed when the last bit of green brilliance poured out from the Primordial Chaos Tree, causing the entire tree to collapse. The massive trunk disintegrated into dust, scattering throughout the Ancient Tree Space.

However, the cloud formed by the green energy lightly shook, then charged out of the Ancient Tree Space with a thunderous force.

The vast life force seemed to radiate throughout the chaos.

”What is that...”

”It’s coming out of the Ancient Tree Space!”

”Such rich life force! What’s going on? This seems to be the aura of the Primordial Chaos Tree!”

The ancient tree spirits and chaos creatures engaged in battle all looked skyward in astonishment.

Jing Yan also turned his gaze upward.

”What’s happening?” Luo Dejie squinted as he looked at the massive green cloud emerging.

Then, greed flickered in his eyes.

He had invaded this chaos, starting as if he were a Devouring Sky Clan creature, and had previously paid a great price to bring apostles in, all for this Primordial Chaos Tree’s vitality. As long as he could absorb this life force, he could surpass himself and achieve the Undying Immortal Body, becoming eternal.

”It’s mine!” Luo Dejie rushed towards the green cloud.

With the black halo around him, he ignored the attacks from Jing Yan and other life forms, flying rapidly towards the green cloud. He aimed to ingest all the life force into his body.

”Swish!” The green cloud moved.

Above the sky, a green river seemed to appear. This river flowed continuously, and the position where its end flowed was where Jing Yan was.

Jing Yan was still a bit stunned when the green river surged forward and then directly entered his body.

”This...” Instantly, Jing Yan felt the vast life force entering him.

And the wounds on his body healed completely in an instant.

An unprecedented force flooded his whole body. Jing Yan felt himself rapidly becoming stronger. With each blink, he grew vastly more powerful.

”Damn it! Damn it!” Luo Dejie rushed close to the green cloud, but couldn’t continue approaching; an aura of supreme rules repelled him from getting close to the green cloud.

He kept trying yet couldn’t reach the green energy. When he saw the green energy entering Jing Yan’s body, he was furious.

”This is... Chaos Origin Will!” After absorbing the Primordial Chaos Tree’s vitality, Jing Yan’s mind naturally gained some information.

”The Chaos Origin Will has chosen me?” Jing Yan opened his mouth.

”It wants me to kill Luo Dejie? Guard the chaos?” Jing Yan exhaled.

The green river surged into Jing Yan’s body swiftly, and the green cloud was gradually shrinking.

After about ten breaths, the green cloud completely vanished, and the last of the green energy also entered Jing Yan’s body.

Jing Yan at this moment was overwhelmingly powerful.

The Nuwa Palace Master, Lizhu Blade Emperor, and other chaos creatures stared at Jing Yan in astonishment. None of them knew what had happened. But from the change in Jing Yan’s aura, it seemed to be a good thing. That green energy, containing terrifying life force, seemed not to negatively impact Jing Yan Daoist at all.

”Luo Dejie, face your death!” After absorbing the last bit of green energy, Jing Yan shouted, wielding the Ice Flame Sword to strike the raging Luo Dejie.

”You damn bastard, return what’s mine.” Luo Dejie lunged at Jing Yan.
