625 Fusing the Arm! (1/2)

Wang Baole's pupils contracted. His eyes saw only the broken arm.

There was a strong Divine Armament's aura exuding from the broken limb that threatened to rise to the heavens. The giant tree shook as he carried the broken arm. A howl like that of a furious beast erupted from the tomb behind him as he fled. Massive clouds of green mist were discharged into the air as the howl rang out.

The green mist transformed into a large hand that went after the giant tree. It seemed intent to drag the giant tree back into the tomb and keep him there with it forever!

The giant tree despaired as danger loomed over him. He could feel an incredible suction pulling at him. The threat of death blared in his head ceaselessly, like sirens. His only hope rested in Wang Baole. He could only hope that Wang Baole wouldn't leave him to die and that the latter wouldn't demand that he throw the broken arm over to him.

The latter meant that Wang Baole planned to only save the arm and not him. He would be left with no choice. He could hold on to the arm and hope that Wang Baole would save him along with the arm… but that meant that they would remain enemies in the end. His chances of survival after that were slim.

Just as the giant tree drowned in rage and despair, something unexpected happened. Wang Baole didn't ask him to throw the arm to him. Without any hesitation, he unleashed the devouring seed inside his body and directed its suction force at the giant tree. The sudden force combated the pull from the gigantic hand and gave the giant tree an additional burst of speed!

Wang Baole wasn't done yet. As soon as he unleashed his devouring seed, his Lightning Avatar also appeared. Both the avatar and Wang Baole dashed towards the giant tree.

They appeared at the giant tree's side instantly. As the gigantic green hand rushed towards them with an intent to wipe them out, Wang Baole gave the giant tree a huge push. The organs inside the giant tree shook violently under the tremendous force. However, the push also gave him another burst of speed. The distance between him and the gigantic hand widened yet again!

Next, Wang Baole's avatar grabbed the giant tree's arm and yanked him forward. He finally managed to escape death.

Everything happened just as the giant tree was despairing. However, as soon as the distance between the giant tree and the enormous hand grew, the latter came charging again. The sounds of heavy breathing continued to escape from the tomb. Wang Baole's eyes flashed. He switched places with his avatar instantly.

The avatar rushed towards the gigantic hand. Then, it exploded as soon as they collided. A thunderous boom erupted. Wang Baole's hands were a blur as he formed a series of hand seals and then pointed towards the hex over the tomb.

The shining door of light slid shut instantly. The gigantic hand, slowed down by the avatar's self-induced explosion, was trapped inside the hex. It roared inside its prison.

”Follow me!” There was no time to find out what was going to happen to the hand. Wang Baole raced off with a fierce look on his face. The giant tree was shocked. He couldn't believe that Wang Baole hadn't mentioned a single word about the broken arm. He had instead poured all his energy into saving the giant tree's life. The giant tree was also equally shocked at the danger he had just survived. He panted as he followed Wang Baole closely. With Wang Baole's help, they finally made their way back to the Worship Palace Pavilion.

They had unleashed their full speed, shooting through the air like bolts of lightning. The sounds of furious, and seemingly mindless breathing continued to follow them, affecting them. When they finally arrived at the Worship Palace Pavilion and stepped inside, the breathing in their ears also finally stopped. It was as if it had been cut off.

The two finally released a sigh of relief. The giant tree was about to speak when Wang Baole stopped him. They entered the teleportation array formation hurriedly. The light from the array formation shone around them. They disappeared and reappeared at the border between the sword body and the sword handle, faraway from the tomb. That was when they could truly let down their guard.

The giant tree's face was pale, and his heart was still racing fearfully. He had experienced death looming over him just moments ago. A slight oversight could have gotten him killed.

”What is this place?” The giant tree looked around and muttered.

Wang Baole bit back a sarcastic remark. How would he know? An idea stirred in his head. He pretended to look wise, then spoke coolly.
