Chapter 555: Capture
Translator: Radiant Editor: Radiant
The elderly lady leaving on the wooden walking stick also turned into a beam of light, flying within the serene, ice-cold icy cave tunnel, and her long hair speedily grew, turning into strand after strand of brown tree roots. The tree roots immediately snapped apart, altogether breaking into nine tree roots. These nine tree roots separately also became gray robed elderly ladies.
These nine gray robed elderly ladies also rapidly flew, splitting apart immediately along the side roads, continuously pressing in from different directions.
“Heng heng heng.” There was a hidden coldness within the eyes of Dried Tree Old Mother, “Little brat, let’s see where you flee to this time!”
Nine Yang Palace Head, Prison Dragon Emperor, and Red Transient Empress also closed in on Xue Ying from their respective positions. They had waited this long, so naturally they were willing to let Xue Ying flee once again.
…
Within the Ice-cold icy tunnel, Xue Ying was not the least bit nervous, and exposed a smile, enjoying this elegant world. In the last trial of the Destruction Legion, he had been allowed to go through a heart-seeking trip for ten-thousand years, and let his mental state become even more pure and alert, even more unaffected by outside disturbances.
“Xue Ying, I sense that the five of Nine Yang Palace Head are currently approaching, and amongst them the one arriving the fastest is Dried Tree Old Mother. Both her True Body as well as her nine avatars are all drawing near, and amongst them one of the avatars will arrive soon.” Monarch Mo Xue warned him from within the inner world.
“Oh?”
Xing also knew of Dried Tree Old Mother’s avatar technique, but since he had chosen to exit, and he wanted to leave together with Jing Qiu, he had long since had preparations for being surrounded.
Regardless of all, he continued to advance along the predetermined route.
“Suddenly, Xue Ying’s ears slightly twitched. His ears heard some minute fluctuations, which was the space vibrations caused by ultra high speed flight. This made the corner of Xue Ying’s mouth curl up into a smile: “Come.”
“Your Highness Dong Bo, don’t flee, come along with his old woman!” A gray robed elderly lady flew over from directly in front of him, yet there was a trace of excitement and expectedness on her wrinkled and old face, he truly had been discovered by her.
Yet Xue Ying completely did not pay attention to her, flipping and extending his right hand, a scarlet red spear appeared in his hand.
“Heng heng heng, You still want to struggle? Why don’t you let Mo Xue out, he can still fight a little with me. As for your highness Dong Bo, perhaps when you become a stage four world deity you will be able to fight a little with this old woman, but now, you cannot blame this old woman.” The grey robed elderly lady extended her right arm, and her dried right hand immediately became countless root hairs, and these twisting tree roots were densely packed, almost blocking the entire corridor, directly stretching towards Xue Ying, wanting to directly capture Xue Ying with one move.
Seeing the countless unavoidable tree root hairs stretching over, Xue Ying wrinkled his brows, then waved his left hand.
Hong——
A turbulent light purple blaze directly rushed forth, as if a huge fiery dragon flew out from the palm of Xue Ying’s hands. At the same time, the temperature within the icy cave rapidly increased, and the ice layer immediately began to melt, melting into a stream. The stream also continued to rise into a steam. The steam existed only for an instant before instantly evaporating and turning into nothingness.
The cavern’s changes were very fast, and the cavern that was originally encased in layers of ice, were very soon melted away, exposing its true face, a huge rough tunnel.
It was slow to speak of.
This light purple fire dragon immediately had already pounced onto the innumerable tree root hairs, both of them covering the earth and skies.
“Ah~~~” The gray robed old lady immediately let out a shout, and countless root hairs were burned up in practically an instant. Some of these relatively tender tree roots were even ignited, and only the few thickest main roots were able to barely hold on. But this kind of sharp pain made the gray robed elderly lady let out an expression of startled anger. Those tree roots then hurriedly retreated, but the light purple flame still did not let her off, completely enveloping her body, burning her so that the gray robed old lady let out a pained cry.
Painful!
Although this was merely an avatar, for better or worse, this was practically this strength of a powerful existence!
Who would think that she would be incomparably painfully burnt, and instantly placed at an absolute disadvantage!
“The strength of this Ten Apocalyptic Fire truly isn’t bad.” Xue Ying inwardly praised, The seventh layer of the Ten Apocalyptic fire was something that only stage four world deities could cultivate under normal circumstances, but because of the trial of the destruction legion, Xue Ying was made to spend this much to to cultivate it. It’s difficulty was even higher than the fourth turn of the third chapter of “Luminous Sun”, and its power was extremely outstanding. As a world deity ranked secret technique that neared an Absolute art, after cultivating the seventh layer, one’s strength would be near to a powerful existence, relying just on the flame!
Furthermore, the gray robed old lady was specialized in tree root wood.
It just happened to be restrained by flames!
