Chapter 408 Concerning Their Life and Death

Ling Yi shook his head upon hearing this.

Seeing Ling Yi refuse, Ye Qingshuang wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she heard Wu Huiyuan say, "It's too late."

"After it mutates, its strength will increase greatly. Its roots and branches have grown much longer. This place is now covered with tree roots. We can't get out unless we kill it."

After hearing what Wu Huiyuan said, Ye Qingshuang turned to look at him: "If that's the case, what are you still standing there for? Go and kill it."

Wu Huiyuan pursed his lips and looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.

Seeing his reaction, Ye Qingshuang sneered and stopped talking to him. She turned to Ling Yi and said, "Don't go alone. Let those divine descendants go with you, or they won't be able to get out either."

No sooner had Ye Qingshuang finished speaking than a tree branch came flying at her.

Countless branches flew out, and in an instant, all that could be seen was darkness. As some branches hurtled towards Ye Qingshuang, Wu Huiyuan looked up at the blood tree, his eyes filled with chilling coldness.

Under Wu Huiyuan's watchful gaze, the flying branch paused for a moment, then whooshed past Ye Qingshuang's head and flew towards the divine disciples not far away.

Previously, the descendants of the gods tried to use the light mirror to contain the blood tree, but were injured by the blood tree's counterattack.

The elders were in slightly better condition, but the disciples were in extremely serious condition. At this moment, with the blood tree attacking, the disciples were unable to move at all, let alone defend themselves.

The disciples couldn't handle it, so the elders had to step in. However, there were just too many branches, and the elders, with their limited manpower, couldn't attend to everyone. They could only watch helplessly as the branches fell, pierced the disciples' bodies, and drained them dry in an instant!

Seeing this, the elders were both angry and anxious, but they couldn't spare a hand to save anyone. They turned around and saw Wu Huiyuan and Ye Qingshuang, and hurriedly asked the two for help: "Please help us. Once we leave here, the descendants of the gods will definitely repay you handsomely."

At this moment, Ye Qingshuang's mind and eyes were only on Ling Yi, who was determined to fight the Blood Tree. She didn't care what others said and naturally ignored the elders.

After hearing their plea for help, Wu Huiyuan turned around and glanced at them indifferently, ignoring them completely.

Seeing this, the elders felt even more desperate. But soon, something even more despairing happened: wherever the blood tree passed, not only did the disciples lose their lives, but even the surrounding vegetation began to wither.

The reason for this is that the Blood Tree is not only absorbing the lives of the disciples, but also the lives of the plants and trees.

They can be absorbed simply by contact; if they don't leave this place soon, they will also be absorbed!

Just as the elders were thinking this, more branches came flying in, and more and more students were pierced through by the branches, their lives being drained away.

At first, the elders were able to protect some people, but as more and more branches appeared, they gradually became too busy to take care of themselves and could no longer look after others.

"boom!"

Just when the elders were at their wits' end, a powerful force appeared and struck the Blood Tree.

Under that powerful attack, a section of the tree trunk caved in. Immediately afterward, a star-blue figure leaped up and attacked the blood tree.

Almost the instant the figure approached, the Blood Tree mobilized all its branches to get closer, instantly enveloping the figure.

The Blood Tree moved its branches away, and the surviving elders and disciples breathed a sigh of relief. The elders took the opportunity to lead the disciples aside to heal their wounds, while they kept a close eye on the battle ahead, as the fight between the man and the tree was a matter of life and death for them.

Seeing Ling Yi and the Blood Tree start fighting, Ye Qing Shuang raised her hand to summon her flute, but Wu Hui Yuan held her hand down.

Ye Qingshuang looked at him impatiently: "Let go!"

Wu Huiyuan said softly, "The Blood Tree can devour spirits. If you make a move now, it will absorb your power to deal with Ling Yi."

After hearing what Wu Huiyuan said, Ye Qingshuang had no choice but to give up: "Then what should we do, just watch like this?"
