Chapter 182 United Against External Forces
Ahead, endless precious light and boundless auspicious clouds filled the air. A divine tree, rooted in the crimson sea, seemed to have been born before the creation of the world. Its body radiated divine light and overflowed with vital energy.
"Why...did it get smaller?"
However, things seemed to have gone against the expectations of all living beings. The divine tree was completely different from what they had seen before. At first glance, it was only about a foot tall.
"Only a foot tall?!"
No living being is willing to believe it.
However, although it is only a foot tall, the tree is still amazing. It is surrounded by stars, and each leaf holds a star. On the top of the tree is an ancient palace about the size of a palm, which breathes out chaotic energy.
"Hahaha, this treasure is rightfully mine!"
Seeing that no one stepped forward, a venerable one immediately laughed and grabbed at the golden tree that was about a foot tall.
Then, something astonishing happened to all the creatures present. As he gradually approached the golden tree, his body shrank rapidly, eventually turning into a speck of dust and disappearing into the golden tree.
"This is... a mustard seed containing Mount Sumeru?"
This scene caused many living beings to gasp in surprise, and then realize the truth.
Although the golden tree in front of them was only one foot tall and seemed to have shrunk, it was actually because it was surrounded by a Sumeru world, which was not in the same space as them.
Once they understood, all the living beings present moved in unison, their bodies shimmering with light, and rushed forward at lightning speed.
The Golden Tree, according to legend, is the dwelling place of the sun and the slumbering place of the gods. It is often associated with the origin of mythology and has the great opportunity to seize the creation of heaven and earth.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, an inexplicable aura erupted, abrupt and swift, causing the void to distort.
"Pfft~"
A prodigy from the upper realm stared in astonishment as his temple was pierced, blood splattering high into the air.
The killer is a root, a blood-red root as thick as a real dragon.
It happened so suddenly! A blood-red root, resembling a divine spear and flashing with crimson light, struck out from nowhere and killed a young powerhouse from the upper realm.
Iron-blooded Ancient Tree!
It rose abruptly from the magma, reaching out with a staff for protection, unfazed by the intense heat.
"You...are very good!"
The murder of their companion enraged the group of geniuses from the upper realm. They hadn't even caused any trouble, yet someone had deliberately provoked them and caused them to lose a companion. They immediately turned around and vowed to avenge the perpetrator.
"boom!"
A massive wave of magma surged, the Crimson Sea boiled, and a group of Venerable Ones appeared, launching a coordinated attack on these prodigies.
Apart from the few who had entered earlier, the other Venerables were all very tacit, their faces cold and silent, as they slashed at the people from the upper realm, as well as Shi Hao, Shi An, and others, with fierce attacks.
Clearly, they didn't want the opportunities here to be seized by outsiders like Shi An.
"Really...!"
Looking at the group of Venerables who had suddenly launched an attack, Shi An's lips curled into a contemptuous smile, followed by a cold laugh: "They're courting death!"
"boom!"
With a loud bang, laws spread out, light rained down like a waterfall, magma boiled, huge waves surged, and murderous aura soared to the sky.
No one expected that the great war would come so quickly; the war had already begun before they had even truly ascended the Ancient Tree of the Sun.
"call out!"
A five-colored deer made its move, and divine light flew over. It was a treasure, shaped like deer antlers, flowing with five colors, and it arrived directly in front of Shi Hao. Its power was extremely strong.
"Clang!"
Seeing this, Shi Hao also moved extremely fast. With a trembling sound, his hands glowed and burst forth with towering sword energy, instantly slashing at the deer antlers, causing them to deviate from their trajectory and sink into the sea of lava.
"roar!"
Suddenly, a divine beast roared, its body radiating blue light, sweeping across the army and attacking.
It was entirely azure blue, radiating powerful divine energy. It resembled a lizard, but had a dragon's head and a pair of wings on its back. It swooped down, spewing blue light.
"What is this? Is it a dragon?"
Seeing the creature attacking them, the group of geniuses from the upper realm were shocked, because the creature was very powerful.
A magical artifact, a copper bell, floated above its head. It rang softly, enhancing the artifact's power several times over!
As the attack came, Shi An finally made his move, as it included him in the attack.
"boom!"
Shi An remained motionless, yet his body erupted with dazzling divine light, like a small sun rising, illuminating the surrounding scorching magma until it paled in comparison.
Immediately afterwards, he formed a mudra with his hands and softly chanted an ancient incantation.
"boom!"
The next moment, magma surged, crimson flames soared into the sky, detached from the sea, and transformed into fire dragons that roared towards the blue dragon.
The fire dragon roared, baring its fangs and claws, and with the force to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, it clashed with the blue dragon.
In an instant, lava splashed everywhere, divine light soared into the sky, and the void seemed to be torn apart where the two fought fiercely.
"roar!"
The blue dragon roared repeatedly. Although it was huge, it was extremely agile, constantly dodging the fire dragon's attacks while spewing blue light from its mouth and entangled with the fire dragon.
The copper bell above its head rang continuously, and with each ring, its attack power increased to a new level.
At the same time, not far away, other Venerables were also making their moves, their runes intertwined and their laws dense, as they besieged the group of young powerhouses from the Upper Realm.
In addition, golden flames were burning, which was the work of the Golden Crow Clan's Taoists. They controlled the magma and were also suppressing the group of geniuses from the upper realm.
Clearly, even though the Golden Crow Clan was unhappy with the arrival of the group, they ultimately put aside their prejudices for the sake of the bigger picture and chose to unite against the outside world, aiming to eliminate the group of powerful figures from the outside first.
In an instant, a riot broke out, and a group of people were attacked and unable to defend themselves.
"Ring ring!"
Just then, seeing how powerful Shi An was, the Blue Dragon stopped hiding his strength and the copper bell on his head fell down, merging with the magic technique.
"boom!"
The copper bell vibrated, emitting a deafening sound, perfectly merging with the blue dragon's magic technique, instantly unleashing a world-destroying power.
The power transformed into a blue beam of light, like an indestructible divine spear, which shot fiercely towards Shi An, causing the void to tremble wherever it passed.
Shi An merely snorted in response, and then his divine light surged again, while the speed at which he formed hand seals became even more rapid.
In the next instant, as if guided by some mysterious force, the fire dragons suddenly merged into one, transforming into a gigantic crimson dragon.
The giant dragon roared, carrying the force to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, and crashed fiercely into the blue dragon.
"boom!"
The fire dragon collided with the blue light, unleashing a deafening roar. The void trembled, magma surged, and the entire Crimson Sea seemed about to be overturned by this force.
At the same time, Shi Hao also made his move, a Vermilion Bird taking shape in his palm, drawing in magma and creating huge waves that swept in the opposite direction towards the native Venerable of the Primordial Treasure Realm.
A fierce battle has broken out!
"Roar..."
A hydra roared, its nine heads blazing with divine light, engulfing everything in front of it and crushing it at breakneck speed.
Most terrifyingly, it also activated a nine-colored divine ring, whose power was boundless and invincible.
It turned out to be a secret treasure refined by a deity, which shocked many people into retreating.
With this supreme treasure in hand, the Hydra possesses terrifying strength and is undoubtedly one of the strongest beings in this world.
On the other side, the Purple Gold Ants also broke through multiple lines of defense, proving invincible and forcing several prodigies back.
Time passed, the battle continued, but some people began to consider retreating.
A burst of light flashed in the palm of a prodigy, and a stone arch bridge appeared, exquisite and translucent. In an instant, it rapidly enlarged, piercing through the void and disappearing into the ancient divine tree.
"Walk!"
Then, a group of people crossed the bridge and broke through the encirclement in an instant.
