Chapter 333: The Offensive Is Temporarily Suspended

The branches emerged from the space channel, intertwined with each other, and pierced the earth diagonally, forming a triangular slope.

At this moment, the branches inserted into the small world are already thousands of meters wide, and even Wuyuan cannot guarantee that they will be cut off in one blow.

Ning Wuxie and Wuyuan flew to the left and right of the branches tacitly, and Wuyuan faced the thicker side.

I saw that the black and white swords in Wuyuan's hands were combined into one, and he held his hands in reverse and stabbed at the branches hundreds of meters thick below.

Ning Wuxie used his body to raise the demon sword, and drew it in his palm. The demon sword suddenly shone brightly, and Ning Wuxie infused it with the power of the stars, raised it above his head and slashed it with all his strength.

The black gale blew up out of thin air with Wuyuan's stab, as if at the moment when Wuyuan inserted the sword downward, a black hole had been pierced in this world, and the energy in the sky was fluctuating towards the tip of the sword.

On Ning Wuxie's side, a blazing sun shadow appeared on his body. The demon sword was nourished by the blood of the Hexu Realm, and the grade was unknown. Ning Wuxie directly used the strongest sharp attack he could launch with the Wutian Huari Gong.

He poured the power of ten rounds of scorching sun into the demon sword, and the demon sword immediately became as bright as incandescent, as if it was a pure white blade, and the power of flames spread out in waves.

Ning Wuxie did not attack purely with spiritual power and sword energy like Wuyuan. His spiritual power was not as pure as Wuyuan, so he could only use the demon sword to chop all the way down!

All this happened in just a moment. Even if Youyoushan used the Nine Heavens Huge Heart Method, he could only hold on for five breaths.

But it was enough.

A huge black shadow hundreds of meters wide burst out from Wuyuan Zhenren's sword. He knelt on one knee and stabbed the black and white double swords that combined into one into the branches.

A clear cut on the branch instantly appeared on both sides of the sword blade and extended rapidly downwards.

Ning Wuxie's whole body burst out with the power of the blazing sun, like lava dripping into ice and snow, and sank into the branches. The incandescent demon sword in his hand cut a cut that was obviously several hundred meters longer than the blade itself, and burned the branches black.

The end of the demon tree's branch had just swiped Youyoushan away, and was about to chase him again, but suddenly lost its strength.

Its rear had been completely cut off, and a golden light came from a distance like a meteor, instantly wrapping all the golden flames on the branches.

Half an hour later.

On the charred and cracked ground, only a piece of ash remained.

Ning Wuxie raised his hand and threw out a ball of flame, burning the last demon into ash.

"It seems that this demon tree will not attack again in the short term." Wuyuan in front of him said.

Ning Wuxie turned and looked at the huge space channel.

The space channel is now wider than Tianming City, and the height is enough to pass a flying bird.

But the branches inserted into the small world no longer moved, leaving only the original cross-section with the end cut off.

In the current space channel, all around is pitch black, but there is a very strange black-green cross section at the bottom of the center. It was cut out by Ning Wuxie and Wu Yuan together from the branch that was inserted diagonally into the small world.

According to everyone's idea, the demon tree will definitely grow new branches from it to continue to attack, but unexpectedly, the demon tree has temporarily stopped.

Even the other spaces generated by the expansion of the space channel, the demon tree did not extend its branches to occupy.

The cross section was originally gushing out a dark and smelly liquid, but it soon stopped as if it were self-repairing, forming a high wall like a scab of a patient with skin disease. If you get close, you can still see it constantly undulating and agitating, which is extremely disgusting.

But it can also be regarded as a temporary respite for Ning Wuxie and others.

"It shouldn't be a problem for the time being." Ning Wuxie said, looking at the cross section of the demon tree branch.

"Let's go back to Tianming City first. I'll set up a formation here so that we can detect it at any time if there is anything unusual." Wu Yuan said.

Everyone agreed with his plan and flew back to Tianming City.

In the Dan Tower, Xiao Qiuxian took the elixir and her injuries had healed a lot. Yan Xiao stood beside her, holding one of her hands. Everyone saw it, but no one said anything.

"What happened to the demon tree?" She sat up with Yan Xiao's hand and asked anxiously.

Wu Yuan told her the situation.

"It stopped... why?"

"I don't know, but we have initially figured out the characteristics of the demon tree. This demon tree can transform all living creatures into demons under its control, and it is immortal. Cutting off a limb can be regarded as resurrecting two demons. The more it kills, the more it will be."

"If it weren't for Brother Yan's fire power, we really couldn't stop the demon tide all over the mountains."

Xiao Qiuxian looked surprised, stroked his chin and murmured, "It's so weird... What is its body?"

"Now it seems that the demon tree itself is not difficult to deal with. It will only use its branches to physically swing. The difficult thing is the countless demon tides it creates. It is not easy for Senior Yan to deal with it alone. Once they are allowed to attack Tianming City, the population in the city will gather, which will be a disaster."

Ning Wuxie said, and everyone nodded.

"So now we need to adjust the combat strategy according to the characteristics of the demon tree."

"Do you have any ideas?" Wuyuan looked over.

"... Not yet." Ning Wuxie confessed.

He had no clue at the moment. He could understand that the demon tree attacked the small world to seize life, but why did it suddenly stop? What was it waiting for?

What would happen if it dragged on like this? When the space gate opened to its limit and the world in the sword completely squeezed into the core world, what would happen then?

There was too little information available, and it was completely uncertain what would happen.

Ning Wuxie was thinking that maybe he could wait for the two pieces of Heavenly Dao to merge, and then control Heavenly Dao himself and use the power of nature to kill the demon tree, but he didn't know if he could afford to delay.

"Let's ask Senior Xiao to do some investigation first," Ning Wuxie said after a moment of silence, "We need to understand the origin of this demon tree first."

"Yes," Xiao Qiuxian nodded.

"The three Zhaos have been imprisoned by me, next to Zhao Ying. How should we deal with them?" Yan Xiao said.

Ning Wuxie: "I'll go and see, is there anyone else?"

Xuan'er raised her little hand: "I'll go too." She took two quick steps and threw herself into Ning Wuxie's arms.

Holding Xuan'er, Ning Wuxie immediately felt that the tension caused by the explosive spiritual power battle just now was relieved, and he couldn't help but bury his head in her hair and sniffed deeply.

It smells so good...

He wanted to find Xuan'er when he entered the Dan Tower just now, but because Xiao Qiuxian was injured first, he had to take care of her first.

He was so scared.

Ning Wuxie hugged Xuan'er tighter until her big belly touched his own.

"I'm too lazy to go." You Youshan shrugged and turned around and left.

Wuyuan looked at Yan Xiao and Xiao Qiuxian, neither of whom were interested, "Then I'll go with you. I killed Zhao Ying and Zhao Rui, so it's appropriate for me to go."

Ning Wuxie nodded, "If they don't cooperate and are unwilling to obey, then just kill them."
