Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A deafening thunder sounded.

The black asphalt-like Yin Wu Lei turned into Zhang Zhiwei's face. It opened its big mouth and bit off the roots of the sacred tree in one bite with the force of a whale swallowing.

Afterwards, some Yin Thunder attached to the broken roots of the tree spread around like poison, and the corroded roots turned into black ash and fell down.

Since learning the Yin Five Thunders, although Zhang Zhiwei did not use it very often, he did not neglect his practice of Yin Five Thunders. Even though he could not catch up with Yang Thunder, the gap between the two was already very close.

After all, his Yang Lei had already reached perfection, and from now on he could only work slowly, with no possibility of a sudden improvement. However, his Yin Lei practice was gaining momentum.

When using Yang Wu Lei to deal with the sacred tree before, Zhang Zhiwei felt that some of the output overflowed.

He could easily crush the roots of the sacred tree, but he could not cause fatal damage to the tree.

After he switched to Yin Wu Lei, he could still cause damage to the sacred tree, and Yin Wu Lei had lower consumption and could sustain output for a longer time.

Even the Yin Five Thunders itself has the ability to suck the enemy's energy by sucking the bones and marrow, but the energy absorbed by Yin Thunder cannot be absorbed by the caster like the Saint Thief.

These energies act on the Yin Five Thunders themselves, causing them to become more and more intense and larger, until they are so large that they are beyond the control of the caster.

Therefore, Yin Wu Lei is most suitable for protracted wars and wars of attrition.

Now the roots of the sacred tree are spread all over the island and are almost endless. Using Yang Thunder to fight it head-on is undoubtedly a thankless task. Zhang Zhiwei decisively switched to Yin Five Thunders.

Under his control, Yin Wu Lei spread at a speed visible to the naked eye. The tree roots that had just covered the sky and the sun like entangled giant pythons were corroded by Yin Wu Lei.

Moreover, this part of Yin Wu Lei did not disappear, but stretched across the air, with a few bubbles occasionally appearing on the surface, making it look like a pool of black mud.

However, the black arcs that occasionally jump across its surface make no one dare to take it as mud.

"What kind of ability is that? It looks like black mud, but there are black lightning flashes jumping on the surface like sparks."

“There is no sound when it is cast, but wherever it passes, whether it is tree roots, stones, or sand, they all dry up first and then crumble into black powder.”

"Even through this golden light, I can feel a chill that penetrates deep into my bones. It's so evil. Is this the black magic of the East?"

In the golden sphere, Gellert rubbed his shoulders and asked.

Isaac did not speak. Although he knew that both Zhang Zhiwei and Tianshi Mansion were on the side of light and justice, he also knew Zhang Zhiwei. He was an unruly guy.

To him, whether it is black magic or white magic, as long as it can achieve its purpose, it is good magic. This black mud-like method may really be some very evil ability.

"What black magic?" Tian Jinzhong said with dissatisfaction, "This is the upright Xuanmen Dharma, not the filthy and shitty black magic you have."

Xuanmen Zhengfa... Gellert glanced at Tian Jinzhong but said nothing.

On the other side, Nasenwei, King Nasen and others looked at the scene in a daze. Whether it was the huge black face in the sky that covered the sky, or the sacred tree that revealed its true form from underground, they were refreshing the cognition of each of them.

"The sacred tree will definitely win!" King Nathan clenched his fists, his eyes fanatical.

On the battlefield, the Yin Lei became more and more intense. Large clumps of black mud connected together to form the Yin Lei's domain skill - the Northern Border Cangtan.

However, compared to the huge mountain-like size of the sacred tree, it is far from enough. Cangtan in the northern border still needs to continue to expand, and Zhang Zhiwei's cultivation is enough to support its continued expansion.

In order to speed up the expansion of Cangtan in the Northern Territory, Zhang Zhiwei waved his hands, and large groups of black lightning were thrown out by him and merged into Cangtan in the Northern Territory.

Soon, the Cangtan Lake in the northern border changed from a thin layer of black mud to a black mudslide, causing huge waves and rolling in all directions. Even the golden ball behind him was wrapped in Yin thunder.

As long as it is thunder magic, whether it is Yin Thunder or Yang Thunder, it is the nemesis of golden light. However, because of the same origin, Yin Thunder does not corrode golden light.

The golden sphere was like a rubber ball floating on the water, drifting in the waves of the Cangtan Lake in the northern border, while the roots of the sacred tree were severely eroded by the Yin thunder, giving a feeling that darkness was shrouding the earth.

"Brother's Yin Wu Lei is too terrifying. I never thought that Yin Wu Lei could be used to such an extent?"

Tian Jinzhong was deeply shocked by this scene. The Yang Lei was so powerful that it came and went quickly, just like the lightning in the sky, which disappeared in an instant.

The power of Yin Lei is like a landslide or tsunami, giving people an increasingly intense and lasting shock.

Therefore, judging from the visual impact alone, Yin Thunder is much larger than Yang Thunder, and even gives Tian Jinzhong the illusion that Zhang Zhiwei's attainments in Yin Thunder are much higher than Yang Thunder.

He couldn't help but think, if this scene was seen by those masters on the mountain who had lost their virginity early and were practicing Yin Wu Lei, they would be so shocked and ashamed.
"That sacred tree is almost submerged by Senior Brother Zhang's Yin Thunder. It should be unable to recover, right!?" Lu Ci muttered to himself.

"Hedgehog, use your Ruyi power to explore how big the sacred tree is underground?" Lu Jin said.

"Don't think about it. Do you think I haven't tried it? Senior Brother Zhang's Yin Thunder is everywhere around us. My Ruyi Power is absorbed by the Yin Thunder as soon as it is released. I can't do anything at all!" Lu Ci said.

"Come to think of it, I do understand why Zhang wanted to bring us into this eggshell-like golden sphere. If we didn't have the protection of this golden sphere, we might have been drowned in this black quagmire of thunder and lightning if we came to watch the battle." Isaac said.

……

Zhang Zhiwei stood in the middle of Cangtan in the northern border, staring at the sacred tree that was wrapped in thunder and stuck in the quagmire. It seemed that the sacred tree had become a spent force.

But he didn't think so. As one of the greatest masterpieces of the alchemy system, the sacred tree could not be limited to this. It should be the one that was in a tough fight. Why was it the other way around? What was it planning?
Just as he thought of this, he saw a golden light shining brightly in the black thunder, and the originally bare sacred tree actually grew golden leaves.

At the same time, it grew taller and taller, with a huge golden trunk as strong as a mountain. The sacred forest that was originally buried deep underground turned into its crown.

The tree people transformed from successive Nasen kings, who were originally at the deepest part of the tree roots, as well as the Nasen guards and branch breakers, gathered together and formed the core of the tree crown.

These tree people are no longer muddle-headed. Their eyes are clear and they are as determined as demons joining the party, making eerie and strange sounds.

The voices seemed to be chanting some incomprehensible scriptures, but the sounds they made were too unpleasant to hear, like crying, roaring, and calling...

Because too many tree people spoke at the same time, the sounds overlapped, creating a turbid, devilish sound that filled their ears.

Zhang Zhiwei was not affected by the sound, but Lu Jin, Lu Ci and others, even though they were far away, still felt that the sound was chasing them, drilling into their ears, stirring in their brains, and giving them splitting headaches.

"This sacred tree is too evil. The golden light can't block out that kind of sound. Let's get away from it!" Lu Jin said, covering his head.

No one opposed his proposal. Everyone present was not stupid and could see that the battle was about to escalate. Once the battle reached a certain level of intensity, the golden ball would not be able to protect them. They could not let Senior Brother Zhang hold them back, so a group of people quickly stepped forward.

Zhang Zhiwei glanced at them. If they didn't leave, he would have been ready to send them away. He turned his attention back to the sacred tree.

The appearance of the sacred tree has become the same as it was in its heyday, but the size is still very different.

Its entire body radiated a sun-like glow. When illuminated by the golden light, the surrounding asphalt-black Yin thunder turned into brilliant golden flames. After burning for a short time, it turned into rain of light and fell.

"Are you finally getting serious?"

Zhang Zhiwei injected more Qi into the Cangtan Lake in the northern border, turning it into the purest Yin Thunder. He then controlled the deep Yin Thunder to flow towards the sacred tree from the sky, from the ground, and from all directions.

The sky and the ground were covered with Yin Thunder like mud. Every time the sacred tree used its holy light to evaporate a part of it, Yin Thunder would immediately fill it up.

The black Yin thunder and the golden holy light collided. The holy light was extinguished by the Yin thunder, and the Yin thunder was also crushed by the holy light into countless misty and scattered electric lights and dissipated.

The collision between the two caused a huge commotion, with lightning flashing, fire burning the sky, rocks collapsing, and accompanied by a deafening roar. It was very terrifying and spectacular.

Nasenwei, King Nasen and his entourage relied on their ability to teleport to stay several miles away from the battlefield, but there were still flying debris and overflowing lightning coming towards them.

"It's so scary, is that black mud-like thing also thunder? What an incredible power!" Alton exclaimed as he stretched out his hand to touch the overflowing lightning.

Others looked at the sacred tree with lush branches and leaves that looked like it was made of gold with burning eyes.

Even they had only seen this kind of sacred tree in murals, but now it was actually displayed before their eyes alive.

"The great sacred tree cannot be defeated! The Rune Warrior Tarn had a pious look on his face. Even though he was accidentally injured by the sacred tree before and was spitting blood, it did not hinder his devout belief.

Lu Jin, Lu Ci and their group were still moving away, but their speed was too slow just by walking.

They were affected by the aftermath of the battle, and felt that there were strong winds and turbulent currents all around them. The golden ball under their feet could not be stepped on at all and was constantly tossed away, like a small boat in the stormy waves.

But at this moment, a golden light shook off the aftermath and hit the golden light. It did not make a loud noise, but merged into it.

Then, the golden ball of light rose up like a balloon, carrying with it the surging Qi flow, and successfully moved away from the dangerous area.

"Huhuhu..."

Lu Jin, Lu Ci and others stood steadily in the golden sphere. Looking back, they saw the huge golden tree and the black northern border Cangtan had been left behind, submerged in sand and dust, with only a corner of them faintly visible.

"It's far, too far, let's go a little further!" Lu Ci and Lu Jin were immediately unhappy.

Tian Jinzhong and Isaac had no objections, but Gellert said:
"Don't get close, it's too dangerous, use projection!"

"No!"

"no!"

"That thing is so hard to use, it's not as clear as the naked eye!"

Everyone objected unanimously, and then moved closer, but this time they were very restrained and did not move so far in one breath like before.

at the same time.

The fight between Zhang Zhiwei and the sacred tree became more and more intense. The two sides fought back and forth, and the collision of dark thunder and holy light made the ground roll up like waves. The surging air flow caused a rolling sandstorm here.

Even if Yin Lei could fight a protracted battle, maintaining this scale would still cause Zhang Zhiwei's Qi to be drastically consumed.

However, he has the power of faith from the hall to supplement it, so he can still afford this consumption.

However, maintaining such a high-intensity fight consumes more of the mind and spirit, which cannot be replenished.

As for the sacred tree, Zhang Zhiwei could not see it, nor could he judge what kind of consumption it had.

However, Zhang Zhiwei was certain that the sacred tree was definitely more durable than himself, because strictly speaking, this battle was actually an unequal battle, and he was defeating the stronger with the weaker.

"When practicing cultivation, the further you advance, the higher your level of achievement will be. It is said that your achievement is limitless. The power of the sacred tree is higher than mine, so why doesn't it show it? Is it really so weak, or is it hiding its true strength and planning something?" Zhang Zhiwei couldn't help but think in his heart.

The reason I think so is because there is a previous record. In the plot, the sacred tree did not resist Behemoth's people, but directly let them burn it.

But just as he was thinking this, the branches of the sacred tree tangled and transformed into a giant open hand, facing him from afar, as if trying to hold him in its palm.

"Um?!"

Zhang Zhiwei seemed to have some sense. At this moment, he felt that the sacred tree seemed to hold the heaven and the earth, overlooking the world.

The next moment, his Yin Thunder showed a slight delay, and the transformation of Qi paused for a moment, and it became increasingly difficult to maintain the Cangtan in the Northern Border.

“This is…” Zhang Zhiwei’s mind flashed with Wu Gensheng’s appearance, and he instantly realized—it was a divine spirit.

Soon after, the huge Northern Border Cangtan, which swallowed up the sky and the earth and had surging waves, suddenly collapsed and turned into extremely pure blue Qi, which dissipated between heaven and earth.

Zhang Zhiwei's Yin Five Thunders were broken down and sorted into the most primitive Qi by the sacred tree using methods similar to those of the gods.

Zhang Zhiwei was stunned for a moment, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He was just wondering when the sacred tree showed its extraordinary power.

"What a difficult ability!" Zhang Zhiwei exclaimed. To some extent, Shenlingming is a more difficult method to deal with than the Eight Great Skills.

Without the obstruction of the Yin Thunder, the holy light of the sacred tree enveloped them like sunshine.

When it was about to touch Zhang Zhiwei, Zhang Zhiwei started to circulate his Qi again, and silver electric light began to flow around his body.

He used Yang Wu Lei again, and the powerful thunder turned into a silver lightning storm that hovered around him. The golden light of the sacred tree was defeated by the thunder.

But soon, his thunder storm was dispelled by the sacred tree using similar means to the divine wisdom, and the holy light of the sacred tree continued to approach.

Zhang Zhiwei took out the long-lost Dongfeng Great Sword. Since his magic was restrained, he decided to fight for his life. (End of this chapter)
