And even if they had a multitude of strange and numerous Forbidden rare artifacts at their disposal, they were still at a definitive disadvantage…
In fact, there were only two among the Heavenly Enlightenment eligible to fight in the Imperial City.
One was Chris Fischer and the other “person” was a mile-high Deep Green Tree Man.
It was a Tree Man as tall as a mile, its essence as profound as the Spirit of an ancient forest, silently guarding its homeland in another world for thousands of years with its incomparable stature.
The Tree Man’s body was interwoven from millennium-old trees, each inch of its “skin” seemed to contain the mysteries and power of nature; its trunk was thick, its foliage lush, forming a curtain of green that cast a cool, mysterious shadow over the square before the palace.
Its eyes were two clear pools, shimmering with wisdom and serenity, the only among all Extraordinary Exponents possessing a harmony and tranquility that transcended nature.
Its bark was engraved with the scars of time; each crack was a record of past storms and the passage of eras; its limbs were as robust as towering ancient trees, its roots penetrating deeply into the Earth’s crust, not only solidifying its form but also establishing an indivisible connection with this land, allowing it to sense movements in the distance beyond the Imperial City and preempt any potential threats.
During the day, sunlight filtered through its dense canopy, and the dappled light added solemnity to the palace; by night, the Tree Man’s body would emit a soft luminescence, like an eternal lighthouse, bringing profound comfort to everyone’s heart.
The mid-level Tree Man of the Heavenly Enlightenment did not belong to this world but was a supreme Guardian of another realm.
It was once not only a Guardian but also considered the God of Nature by many in that land, a figure equatable to Claud World’s “false god” Sea God.
The giant Tree Man was seen as the embodiment of nature, revered and also cherished by the people.
During festivals, the people from that world would lay flowers and prayers at the foot of the Tree Man, thankful for its protection over the years, and it would respond to this reverence and gratitude by gently swaying its branches, purifying illnesses and soothing pains.
A century ago, it fought side by side with the Military God of the Seven Suns Empire, cleansing its world from pollution and widespread Curse, thus becoming close friends.
It came to Claud World as a token of gratitude, repaying the Military God of the Seven Suns Empire’s kindness.
At this moment, this mile-high, Deep Green Tree Man, with its immortal life force and endless wisdom, has become the most solid barrier before the palace, safeguarding the peace of this land.
At this moment, the people from the Fischer family listened to Felix’s analysis; he raised his hand and pointed to the sky, saying,
“Not even the most supreme barrier can weaken the power of the Apocalypse that much, so the approach was reversed. The Imperial Barrier of the Seven Suns Empire could greatly amplify the strength of their own and their allies.”
As an Extraordinary Exponent on the Path of Forging, Felix had the highest understanding of barriers within the family.
