“I finally returned to the peak and even broke through directly.” Duan Yue sensed quietly as the energy flowed inside him, and he seemed unable to believe what just happened. The seal that had suppressed him for so many years was finally opened for a short time, and his strength not only did not regress, but went up by another level.

 “Heavenly Halberd!”

 He cried out lightly and reached out a hand. A beam of light immediately stretched out in his palm, materializing into the ancient halberd that began to spin as soon as it appeared, twisting and distorting the calm seawater.

 “d.a.m.nit!” Da Meng's nostrils flared as he roared, “Where did this human bast*rd come from! Even though you have broken through and become a two-stars Martial Emperor, your cultivation base is not yet stabilized, so you won't be my match!” The milky way in his hand burst into bloom in an instant, spreading out and pouring down from the distance like a great river.

 “The Sophisticated Milky Way, the Heavenly Sea Fiend Flas.h.!.+”

 A silver light lit up the bottom of the sea like daylight and engulfed Duan Yue. Both Tie Pin and Tie Fan were taken aback, their eyes stinging, and they could hardly open them.

 “Hmph! What an insignificant skill! The White Scorching Flame, burn the sky and destroy the devil.”

 A ma.s.s of white cold flame suddenly appeared in the milky way. Nourished by the powerful energy, it gradually spread out and ignited the whole milky way, turning it into a sea of white flames. Da Meng went pale with fright and hastily pushed his hands forward. The white milky way left his palms instantly and burned into ashes. Meanwhile, Duan Yue's cold face quietly appeared amid the flames, looking mockingly at him.

 “Impossible! You are just a lowly human being, and this is in the middle of the sea! Even though we are both two-stars Martial Emperors, I should be stronger than you!”

 Da Meng was filled with anger and shock. The white flame gave him a very dangerous feeling, and he believed that even he could not resist it if he were to touch it. Putting two fingers into his mouth, he suddenly blew a long whistle.

 “Not good! He's calling for reinforcements! Kill him now!” Tie Pin cried out.

 “Haha! There are a lot of my people around here, and five to six are Martial Emperors among them! No matter how strong you are, you will surely die!” Da Meng sneered in a loud voice.

 “Hmph! No matter how much rubbish you call over, they are just rubbish,” Duan Yue sneered disdainfully. “Since you think you have more advantages in the sea, what about now?”

 He opened his mouth abruptly, from which came spewing out streams of Primordial Qi, rapidly pus.h.i.+ng away seawater and creating a vacuum area at the bottom of the sea, with Da Meng, Tie Pin, and Tie Fan inside. Soon, the four of them hovered in the waterless mid-air, which looked like a giant air bubble from afar.

 “You fu*king human!” Da Meng cursed in horror and hurried toward the seawater in the distance. He was already no match for this man in the water, and with both of them exposed in the air now, he would make for an easy target to be slain.

 “Whiteflame Ghost Kill, the sixth-tier halberd!” Duan Yue's eyes gleamed with killing intent as the halberd in his hand pierced through the air. Fingers of white flames swirled around the halberd like auspicious clouds, and wherever the weapon pa.s.sed, the surroundings turned bright like daylight.

 “Ah! Bast*rd, you can't kill me! I won't die, how can you kill me!” Targeted by the Heavenly Halberd, Da Meng felt a sense of death well up in his heart. He had even seen the reinforcements rus.h.i.+ng over in the distance, but it was too late.

 Boom!

 The halberd directly smashed Da Meng into pieces while the surrounding seawater lost the supporting force and crushed down toward the center in an instant. Powerful currents washed away pieces of Da Meng. The great force impacted Tie Pin and Tie Fan as well and made them sway as both of them stared incredulously at Duan Yue, who looked like a G.o.d of War.

 Before the dozens of Razor Clams in the distance could approach, they were rolled up by the currents and pushed farther away. They were all low-level Razor Clams, and the strongest one was just a Martial King.

 Suddenly, Yunxiao swam out of the cavity and sped toward a direction. “Kill as many Razor Clams as you can. You don't have to worry about me!”

 That gave Duan Yue a pause. He did not understand why Yunxiao would suddenly say that, because he did not seem like a murderous man, judging from his usual behavior. But, since he had said that… Duan Yue's cold eyes immediately fell on the dozens of Razor Clams, who still could not figure out the situation.

 Tie Pin and Tie Fan, on the other hand, did not think so much, as Yunxiao's order was what they wanted to do. There was a wild look of revenge in their eyes.

 With a serious face, Yunxiao sped through the bottom of the sea. Along the way, whenever he came across branches of the divine tree, he broke them with his palms. He seemed to be tracking something. Soon, he had swum for miles, and the branches became denser and denser. He simply took out his Tigertooth and cut through a way for himself.

 At last, he came to an extremely s.p.a.cious cavity. The most eye-catching thing inside was a huge piece of wood erected directly from the seabed. The huge wood's color was slightly different from that of the Kunwu Divine Tree branches, showing a light brown color.

 “Haha! There it is!” Yunxiao burst into laughter as he looked at the huge piece of wood. “What a huge Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood! It's not fully formed, but after taking it down and refining it, it should be enough for Meng Wu. I'll just wait a little longer and let Duan Yue and the others kill all the Razor Clams. The effect of this piece of divine wood will be better after it has absorbed their souls.”

 Just now, he had sensed the direction in which Da Meng's soul was flying, and he followed it, which eventually led him to the core of the Kunwu Divine Tree. The wood should have evolved after absorbing wandering souls for tens of thousands of years here, but due to its overly huge size, it had become a half-baked existence in front of him now.

 “After waiting for tens of thousands of years, did I finally get the chance?”

 Just as Yunxiao was complacent about himself, an old voice rang out in the cavity and startled him.

 He spread out his divine sense in horror, but he found nothing. Knowing that it was an existence that could hide from his divine sense, he felt a chill run down his back.

 “Hoho, don't be scared.” The voice rang out again.

 Yunxiao found the direction this time. He squinted over and saw that the voice was actually coming from the half-baked Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood. In his astonished eyes, an old figure gradually emerged over the wood and smiled at him.

 “You are…” Yunxiao looked at the figure shockingly and said in horror, “You are the tree spirit of this Kunwu Divine Tree!”

 The old figure's face was full of astonishment as well, and it was evident that he was a little taken aback. Staring at Yunxiao, he said amazedly, “What a strange boy! You are not strong, but your soul power is so pure that you don't look like a teenager. In fact, I feel like you are at least a hundred years old.”

 Yunxiao was startled, and his forehead was dripping with cold sweat. This tree spirit was the first one to discover the secrets of his soul. “No wonder the Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood has not been fully formed after tens of thousands of years. It turns out that all the wandering souls had been absorbed by you.” Suddenly, he felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart, and he said, “You…you're not trying to devour my soul, are you?”

 The tree spirit froze, and he burst into laughter in the next instant. “Haha! You don't have to worry. I can only absorb the unconscious souls of those dead creatures. I can't take your soul unless you die. Besides, I need your help.”

 “You need my help?” Yunxiao frowned. “Do you want me to not take this Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood? I'm sorry, but I can't do that. My friend is waiting for it to save her life.”

 “Hoho!” The tree spirit laughed and said, “If it were anyone else, I might say so, but not to you. Because after meeting you, I don't even need this Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood. And look at my body, it's been damaged beyond repair by these people, and your d.a.m.nable array has drained almost all of my Spirit Qi. Even with this Soul Nouris.h.i.+ng Wood, I won't live for long.”

 Yunxiao's expression suddenly changed slightly. With a trace of killing intent flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes, he clutched the Tigertooth more tightly and snapped, “Are you going to take my body from me?”

 “Your body?” The tree spirit paused for a moment, and then he showed a disdainful look as he snorted, “You human beings always think how wonderful your bodies are, but in my eyes, only the body of a big tree is the most wonderful existence in the world. Although your body is somewhat amazing, it is nowhere near as good as those higher-level sea people. I want you to help me be reborn from the ashes!”

 “Reborn from the ashes?” That surprised Yunxiao. “You mean…let the Phoenix True Flame in the depths of my soul help you rise from the ashes?” He sighed and said, “I'm sorry, but I don't know how to do that. Besides, I can't control that Phoenix True Flame, and I don't want to accidentally burn myself to ashes.”

 “Hoho! Don't you worry, boy! It's an opportunity for you as well. As long as you have my help, you won't face any problem in controlling this Phoenix Flame. Don't forget, I've seen a real phoenix rise from the ashes!” The tree spirit chuckled softly and said, “If you will help me, I promise to teach you how to subdue this Phoenix Flame. I think I don't have to tell you the benefits of this, right? Also, I can pour all the remaining Spirit Qi in this body into your body before I enter nirvana. You may directly break through to the realm of Martial Lords. Hehe! These are the two benefits if you will help me. Consider them wisely.”

 Yunxiao was shocked. Whether it was controlling the Phoenix Flame or breaking through to the realm of Martial Lords, it was a great temptation for him. He considered a moment and then asked, “Am I going to have any discomfort in the process of helping you rise from the ashes?”

 The tree spirit laughed. “You are really a cautious boy. Rest a.s.sured, you will rise from the ashes with me, and this is only of great benefit to you. If I read you right, you should have practiced a kind of tyrannical body tempering technique. After rising from the ashes, your cultivation of the technique can reach at least a higher level.”

 Yunxiao was rendered speechless. This tree spirit's eyes were too keen, which could even read what kind of body tempering technique he practiced. The Tyrant Body Tempering Technique was divided into three levels. If he could reach a higher level, the strength of his fleshly body would increase by several fold, and this was no doubt another great temptation.

 He smiled wryly and said, “How can I refuse when you have offered me so much?”

 “Hoho!” the tree spirit laughed and said, “I knew you'd have a hard time saying no. There's one more thing I need your help with, that is, after I rise from the ashes, I will return to my original seedling state and fall into a deep sleep. I hope you can bring me with you, find an uninhabited place that is full of Spirit Qi, and plant me there. Be sure to find a safe place!”
