Chapter 910: Tree Root (1/2)

The massive tree withered and seemingly evaporated from thin air, leaving behind a deep pit. The soil nearby collapsed and covered half of the pit.

Feiyun saw a black lump with a strange shape sticking out of the soil. It looked like a thick root with black, shimmering scales.

He took it out and found that it was two meters long. Nonetheless, it weighed more than a thousand pounds.

He sensed a collosal energy of life within, surging like a river.

“Hmm, a leftover root?” The Sacred True Fruit was a gift of nature, impossible to seek without enough luck.

Though all of its essences have entered the fruit, the remaining forces most likely turned into this root.

Maybe years later, it would sprout and become another tree. This was more than enough for the trip even if he couldn’t get anything else from the grave.

He suddenly heard footsteps beyond the fog again along with demonic energy.

‘They caught up? It’s impossible to lose them.’ He calmed down and put away the roots.

His eyes flashed murderously as he put on his invisible robe and took out a purple talisman.

He spent one million spirit stones buying this talisman. Its name was Firmament, refined by a fifth-level Nirvana Cultivator.

However, its corner was damaged. Otherwise, its value would be far more than just one million.

Lord Xueshuang led the demons to the tree area. She looked at the pit and slightly pulled up her dress to crouch down. She picked up the soil and sniffed it. Her bright eyes glanced upward and said: “His presence. He was here not long ago.”

Suddenly, a purple talisman emerged out of nowhere. It released a destructive radiance.

“Watch it!” The demons leaped backward but some weren’t as fast as the explosion.

More than ten were instantly killed. Their corpses fell on the ground with smoke coming out.

A few dozens were grievously injured with their armor broken.

After several exchanges, Lord Xueshuang knew that this human had a stealth treasure. He could hide his aura but not the spatial ripples of the air.

Xueshuang knew where he was after he threw the talisman and unleashed a palm strike.

Feiyun knew how strong he was so he instantly ran after tossing out the talisman. He used his phoenix wings and soared upward, disappearing into the fog.

He didn’t summon the spirit vessel due to its conspicuous aura. It would be a bigger target for his opponent.

“Whoosh!” She unleashed another one up in the air.

Feiyun swung his sleeve and released ten defensive talismans, creating ten barriers to stop the palm strike. He increased his speed in order to escape her attack radius.

“Damn it, he got away again.” Murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

“Keep on searching!” She ordered. The survivors gathered again to chase after the faint aura left behind by Feiyun.

Meanwhile, Feiyun used his fiery wings to flee. He coughed out several drops of blood, ‘this woman is too strong, even ten couldn’t stop the attack completely.’

His phoenix wings technique was actually faster than Swift Samsara. However, it was a straightforward movement technique while Swift Samsara was hard to predict.

The wings were suitable for traveling while Swift Samsara worked better for close combat.

‘I need to get to the third level. The wings will be far faster afterward, she won’t be able to catch up then.’ He was under immense pressure and wanted to break through.

He knew that he was very close already but performing the third life-death process could be dangerous given the circumstances.

This land was strange and boundless. On the seven days, he saw other humans and demons. He kept a distance and didn’t want to interact with them.
