Cataclysm King

Chapter 496 World Tree

"No wonder the guy hid his body before without any spatial fluctuations, and it wasn't any secret stealth method. It turned out that he used the Curse God Card to change the rules of the universe within a certain range, so he couldn't be seen."

When Ji Xun saw everyone falling in front of him, he immediately realized that the [Color JOKER] had the ability to change the operation of the local universe rules.

He had seen Jia Yu use similar abilities before, so it wasn't too surprising.

But I never thought it would be so outrageous.

Just like playing poker, the same fifty-four cards can be used to set different rules.

Card masters like those in the [Order] Path who are good at making rules can create some battle barriers.

These are some of the applications of cosmic rules.

But generally speaking, such rules are formulated under the normal rules of the operation of the universe.

However, the current situation is different.

Anyone who holds the [Color JOKER] Curse Card can "customize" the rules of the game!
Let everyone in the card game play according to the rules he sets.

He can say A is the biggest, or the smallest.

You can completely decide the rules of the game according to the cards in your hand.

It was as if, right before our eyes, the laws of physics had been changed, making it impossible for people to fly.

Invincible, unsolvable, and rogue.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun muttered in his heart: "The power of this Curse God Card is really outrageous."

The good news is that he successfully tested the usefulness of the [Color JOKER] as he wished.

The bad news is that this card has no solution.

In other words, if the Holy Son of the Dragon wants, he can change the rules of the game at will so that the situation always tilts in his favor.

In this way, those who make the rules are already invincible.

Ji Xun felt a dull headache just thinking about it.

But then I thought that it was the relic of Emperor Lanlingster, and it seemed understandable.

But
How?
The laws of physics, if we say they don’t exist, then they don’t exist?

Illusion?

Or is it some other extraordinary means that is beyond our cognition?

Ji Xun’s cognition is currently unable to comprehend the special and extraordinary powers of this card.

The facts are playing out before our eyes.

The Qi can still be sensed.

But he wanted to take off into the air, but he was totally unable to do it.

Ji Xun deduced countless possibilities in his mind, but no matter which one it was, he had no chance of winning.

From the moment the enemy used that [Color JOKER], it was already doomed to be unstoppable.

Moreover, this guy's field is the ability related to the "Law of Order", which happens to be highly consistent with the rule-changing ability of this Curse God Card.

Ji Xun couldn't think of any other means that could kill him except crushing him by rank.

what happened?
Ji Xun was not the only one who was shocked. Everyone showed shocked expressions after finding that they could not fly.

Ji Xun looked at Qin Rushi. When their eyes met, he understood the message Qin Rushi wanted to convey. He suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. This kind of rule change is limited by the caster's rank."

Although Qin Rushi is also restricted by the rules, she has a contract with an ancestral fairy behind her.

Her knowledge and mind-thief abilities may not be completely limited.

At this moment she also indicated whether she wanted to take action herself.

Ji Xun still shook his head.

Things are becoming more and more intense right now, and they are not the main force.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun rushed towards the Holy Son Ceresa again.

After Mrs. Mist fell to the ground and was unable to fly, she was surprised for a moment, but she did not dare to stop at all. She ran wildly across the ground holding Princess Sophia.

Although not as fast as flying, it is still extremely fast.

However, Cheresa was not in a hurry at all. While blocking Ji Xun's intensive attacks, the Joker card in the palm of his right hand lit up again: "Poker Game·Penrose's Maze Forest is a circular maze. No one can leave."

An invisible barrier spread out again, and before long, Mrs. Mist, who had just run into the forest towards the south, suddenly rushed out from the north.

Mrs. Mist looked at him running around and coming back, her expression froze on the spot.

At this moment, not only him, but everyone in the Great Sword Group felt a despair dominated by death.

It was as if they were prey caught in an invisible trap. No matter how hard they struggled, they saw no hope of escape.

However, Ji Xun remained calm.

Although he also realized that the enemy's methods were indeed unsolvable.

But it was not all in vain.

"The rules of space have been changed. This kind of rule change is essentially a spell. The more complex the rules, the longer it takes to condense. Moreover, there should be an upper limit and regularity for the number of rule changes."

Ji Xun pondered for a moment.

In his eyes, once any technique is used, its secrets will become less and less.

If the enemy can use it a few more times, he may be able to find some opportunities.

However, the enemy seemed to know this as well.

Although the Holy Son Cheresa was arrogant, he had no intention of giving Ji Xun and his companions any chance to counterattack.

"Poker Game, Mrs. Dolifa's Thunderstorm Night."

As soon as the spell was cast, the colorful clown's smile on the card immediately turned gloomy.

It was like the eve of a summer rainstorm. Suddenly, thunder roared in the sky.

Seeing this, Ji Xun laughed at himself: "Sure enough, it can change the elemental environment. This is going to be troublesome."

It was as if a domain was cast, and the elements of thunder and water suddenly became stronger.

It was clear from Ji Xun’s previous battles that this Holy Son Cheresa was best at these two types of spells.

Now that the combat environment has been changed to suit him, this guy's combat effectiveness will increase dramatically.

Having this method is like mastering multiple fields, and being able to target different enemies and release different combat environments.

Not being restrained by anyone, yet being able to restrain any enemy.

Another nearly unsolvable ability.

Fortunately, Ji Xun also has super high affinity with all elements.

The change of environment did not have a particularly big impact on him.

Thunder and rain roared all around him. Without thinking much, the sealing rune on the [Black Magic] in his hand lit up and he rushed forward again.

Among those present, only he and Qin Rushi were sure to hold this guy back.

To win, you can’t see any chance;
Ji Xun just wanted to try and see how much of the other party's tricks he could test.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"."

There were explosions in the sky and the scene was extremely intense.

Not only the Holy Son Ceresa, but the other ascetics are also extremely powerful.

Mrs. Mist knew she couldn't escape, so she immediately joined the battle;
Several members of the revolutionary army used all means to save their lives and fought to the death.

This place seemed to have become another main battlefield besides the firefly camp in the distance.

But the most conspicuous one is Ji Xun.

In this fight, both sides had their understandings refreshed by their respective methods.

At first, Saint Ceresa thought that by using the Curse Card, he could quickly get rid of the guy in front of him.

Not only him, almost everyone thinks so.

This seems to be the case.

The Holy Son Cheresa used an almost overwhelming force to defeat Ji Xun, forcing him to retreat step by step.

This made Qin Rushi and other teammates terrified.

However, the results were very surprising.

I saw him being killed many times, but every time he was holding on to his last breath, and then the undeath curse would heal him in an instant and he would join the battlefield again.

Not only did he not die, his fighting spirit became even stronger.

Gradually, the Holy Son Ceresa also discovered the problem.

Any method you have used will not be as effective the next time you use it.

It seems that this guy will never make any mistakes in battle.
If it weren't for the absolute crushing strength of the rank, Cheresa even felt that he could not pose a fatal threat to him.

He thought of the legendary magical secret technique that was said to be flawless - "I am the world".

But even the Holy See does not have a collection of this secret technique.

Ji Xun and his companions were shocked by the methods of the Holy Son of Heavenly Dragon, but after the fight, Cheresa also found it incredible about the man in front of him who was suspected to be the heir of Lanlingster.

Just as it was recorded in the Vatican's secret book, the great Emperor Lanlingster once mastered almost all the extraordinary abilities of the fifty-two sequences.

The guy in front of him already has the shadow of the legend that once made the entire dragon clan tremble.

And if they can’t be killed, the problem will gradually magnify.

Cheresa also discovered that the enemy in front of him was getting stronger little by little.

He felt that the embryonic form of the domain that he had just realized was just a little bit peculiar, but not a big threat.

But gradually
However, he discovered that the field had improved visibly.

The colorful black cannot just decompose everything, it can even imitate and copy its own abilities, and gradually become able to restrain its own abilities!
Just like a seedling that was not destroyed by the storm, it grew wildly and adapted to the environment!
Cereza, who fought against his opponent personally, truly felt that his opponent was getting stronger and stronger.

Not too much pressure.

But it made the murderous intent in his heart even more difficult to suppress.

When we really grow up, it’s hard to say what the future will be like.

Moreover, Cheresa discovered that the people in front of him were obviously different from the pagans.

Poison Master, Swordsman, Assassin, Light Knight, Elemental Blaster
Each of them is not only strong, their methods far surpass those of their peers, and their beliefs are also extremely firm.

The Holy See does not want to see such organizations outside of the sect.

Ceresa was determined to kill him.

the other side.

Ji Xun became more and more excited as the fight went on.

It had been a long time since he had fought such a battle that made him feel so refreshed.

Life and death combat is always the best way to improve.

Because the enemy will find your weaknesses before you do.

Moreover, only when facing a strong enough opponent will the improvement brought about by fighting become more obvious.

The enemy's perception is correct.

In this fierce battle, Ji Xun's sudden realization hit his brain like a tide.

Enlightenment flashes wildly.

"You have gained some insights in battle, 'Domain: The True Understanding of Everything' experience +331"

"You have gained some insights in battle, 'The True Explanation of All Things: Forbidden Water Spell' experience +88"

"You have gained some insights in battle, 'The Secret of Thunder Element' experience +191"

"Dragon's might is terrifying, 'divine might' perception level 7"

"."

Epiphany is a wonderful experience.

At this moment, walking on the edge of life and death again and again, that feeling became clearer and clearer. The newly realized [True Explanation of All Things] also thrived in the destruction of the thunderstorm, and the proficiency on the panel skyrocketed at an incredible speed.

If it were normal meditation and enlightenment, it might take months or even years of hard practice.

But at this moment, in a short period of time, it poured into the soul like a tide.

The Holy Son of Heavenly Dragon, Cheresa, in front of him was like a strength tester. His knowledge at the top of the plane allowed him to find Ji Xun's weaknesses time and time again, and injure and kill him repeatedly.

As Ji Xun was on the verge of death again and again, his shortcomings were quickly discovered and made up for.

Then the battles became more and more meticulous, with fewer and fewer loopholes.

The pressure of death turned into enlightenment, washing over his understanding of the extraordinary like a tsunami.

What is before him is a genuine demigod dragon descendant. When a human has the unyielding will to fight against a demigod, his soul has been sublimated.

It wasn't just the various fighting skills, even Ji Xun himself didn't realize that his "divine power" was becoming more and more real.

The battle remained in a strange stalemate.

It was clearly a one-sided suppression, but it never ended.

Ji Xun was hit again and again, seriously injured again and again, and used the black magic to heal and recover again and again.

Then the battle dragged on for a long time, and everyone thought he should have died long ago.

Of course, it was also thanks to Qin Rushi and Mrs. Mist who occasionally intervened to provide reinforcements.

Otherwise, if it really had to be a one-on-one fight, Ji Xun might have died countless times.

The battle went more and more smoothly.

In a trance, Ji Xun recalled the experience of learning to walk on a tightrope in a circus when he was a child.

The first time I walked up there, I felt nervous and uncertain.

Countless failures and falls have honed my heart to become more and more calm.

As the number of times you are thrown off increases, the fear of the unknown becomes less and less.

Before he knew it, he had mastered the art of tightrope walking.

Just like what is happening now, facing a true master, sudden enlightenment comes like a tide.

If possible, Ji Xun really hopes that this satisfying feeling of achievement will continue.

But the fact is, this secret technique that uses one's lifespan to activate something comes at a huge cost.

The high frequency use of the Undying Curse in a short period of time puts increasing pressure on the body.

Even with the blessing of [Black Magic], Ji Xun also felt the weakness caused by the lack of spell power and lack of energy and blood.

If the fight continues, Ji Xun will surely be exhausted to death.

Qin Rushi also saw this scene.

She carefully observed Ji Xun's condition, ready to ask the immortal to possess her at any time.

But Ji Xun seemed to be waiting for something.

Qin Rushi didn't know what he was waiting for, nor did she know what he was waiting for.

But the tacit understanding between the two made her choose to believe it.

Finally, the wait has come.

Just when everyone thought the situation was settled, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, the whole space began to shake.

"Rumble"

"Rumble"

"."

It feels like the earth is shaking.

Ji Xun knew that their current space should be in that coffin.

It's like a closed glass ball, you can't escape from it no matter which direction.

However, at this moment, the glass ball began to shake.

Seeing this, Ji Xun gave a cruel smile: "Is it finally here?"

The only way he knew to break this space was the "Law of Time".

He had guessed this result when he saw Che Er enter the adventure camp.

After waiting for so long, it’s finally here.

This sudden shock also gave the two sides in the fierce battle in the dense forest a brief pause.

Nobody knows what happened.

Even the people from the Holy See who set up this killing plan looked confused.

The Holy Son Cereza looked at the place not far away, his brows furrowed.

He knew all the details of the ambush plan.

But this scene was not planned.

This means something unexpected happened!

Before everyone could see clearly what was happening, the frequency of the vibration in the entire space became more and more exaggerated.

In the blink of an eye, the soil on the ground cracked and rolled everywhere, as if a monster was about to drill out from the ground.

At the same time, a suffocating dark atmosphere swept through the entire space.

And as the mud was rolling, all the restrictive rules of the Son of God were instantly broken.

"Broken?"

Ji Xun looked happy in his heart.

He also found this exaggerated commotion incredible, and wondered in his heart: "What method did Old Xie use to make such a big commotion? A demon beast? Or an Outer God descending?"

Although he guessed that something unexpected would happen.

But I didn’t expect such a sudden change.

I thought it was just a matter of breaking through the space, but now it seems like some terrifying existence has been introduced.

Before he could think more, the noise of the ground rolling became louder and louder, and everyone watched as black tree roots rolled out of the soil.

Although they are just tree roots, they give people a demonic and oppressive feeling like that of a high-level hellish creature.

More and more tree roots emerged from the ground, and in an instant they overturned the entire forest and the nearby hills.

In a blink of an eye, the devastated battlefield turned into a tree hill formed by huge tree roots.

Everyone stood on the tree roots, as small as ants.

"Tree roots? How big a tree can have such exaggerated roots?"

Ji Xun looked at the scene in front of him, and his mind seemed to be filled with some new knowledge.

He realized that all the roots must have come from the same place.

Moreover, the roots of the tree not only covered their side, but covered the entire space!
As far as he knew, there was no way such a huge plant could exist in the world.

Just as this incident happened, the battle in the distant Firefly Camp suddenly became more intense.

The sun in the sky, which was about to go out, suddenly burst out with dazzling light, as if it was going to burn the entire space.

When the Holy Son Cereza saw this, his face changed drastically.

At this moment, even a fool could see that the mirror space had been broken!
How can it be?

The origin space that even the Pope of the Holy See tried personally but couldn't break was actually broken?
Where is the problem?

When this unexpected incident happened, Saint Cheresa felt a chill down his spine: "Not good!"

He knew better than anyone else that once the space was broken, bigger problems would follow!

"That item" was placed in the space as bait and it was still safe and sound, but once it was connected to the outside space, the "Lord of Evil Omens" behind the Sect of Light would be able to sense it.

He might even use this opportunity to return to this dimension!

Compared to that threat, the people in front of him immediately became insignificant.

What's going on?
How could it become like this?
Before everyone could figure out what was going on, there was a sudden “Ouch~” sound.

A dusty old man screamed as he was pushed out from the ground by tree roots.

It was Old Man Xu who had been hiding somewhere since the battle started!

Old man Xu looked at the two sides in the brief stalemate. More than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at him. He grinned awkwardly with his broken front teeth: "Well, you guys continue."

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away.

Ji Xun grinned when he saw this.

Before, because the space was sealed, he never considered an escape plan.

Now that it's broken, it's no longer a problem.

Moreover, Old Man Xu’s actions are a weather vane.

Since the tree root broke the nearby rules and restrictions, Ji Xun made a prompt decision, turned around and shouted: "Go!"

Having said that, he turned around and ran after Old Man Xu without any intention of continuing the fight.

As soon as Ji Xun ran away, Qin Rushi and the revolutionary army immediately understood what he meant. They immediately used some means to fend off their opponents and turned around and fled without hesitation.

The Holy Son Cereza wanted to stop it, but he didn't expect that a soft moaning sounded in his ears.

"Immortal Law: Four Hells War God Realm!"

Before he could react, he saw the vines around him suddenly grow up, not only instantly absorbing all the elements around him, but also turning into a cage that blocked their way.

In an instant, the lightning blades flew all over the tree roots, and the Holy Son Cheresa rushed out of the root cage.

He looked at Ji Xun and his group who had long disappeared, and was shocked: "Mind thief?! Damn it! There is such a master hidden among those guys!"

Of course he could see that the woman who was well versed in the laws of war was no ordinary person.

But no one expected that he was the inheritor of the [Spade 10 - God Thief] sequence.

Although each of the fifty-two sequences leads to the divine level.

But a few sequences stand out.

This [God Thief] sequence is the unique inheritance of the Bai family of the Tarun Dynasty!

In other words, among the group of people just now, there was not only a descendant of Emperor Taron, but also a descendant of the Bai family?
The Holy Son Cereza had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he vaguely realized that something was wrong.

He wanted to chase after her, but hesitated and stopped where he was.

It turned out that he didn't have the ability to kill several people in a short period of time.

He also saw that the Bai family's God Stealer was very powerful. He hadn't taken action before, so he must have planned something. He might have a plan to "lure the enemy deep into the territory". If he chased him out, he might not be able to capture him, and he might even be ambushed.
Moreover, now that such a big change has happened in the Mirror Secret Realm, the camp needs reinforcements even more.

As soon as he hesitated, Cheresa lost the best opportunity to pursue.

Looking at the figures that had disappeared among the tree roots, the face of the Holy Son of the Church was so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it.

But he gritted his teeth, turned around and rushed towards the camp.

On the other side, Ji Xun carried Old Man Xu and ran all the way.

Seeing that the enemy behind them did not catch up, everyone finally understood why Ji Xun had not let Qin Rushi take action, but only blocked it at the last moment.

In this situation, the higher the position a person holds, the less likely he is to come after her.

Without pursuers, everyone felt the relief of having walked away from the brink of death and survived.

And now the direction of escape is very clear. The direction from which the tree roots come is the exit of this space.

However, before they could rejoice, Old Man Xu suddenly reminded them: "Don't delay, run quickly, if you stay too long, these tree roots will eat you!"

When Ji Xun heard this, he walked even faster and asked, "Eating people? Senior, what exactly is this tree root?"

He was not even able to recognize the origin of these tree roots, and there were definitely very few people in the world who knew about it.

But if we talk about someone who knows, the old man on my shoulder is definitely one of them.

as predicted.

Upon hearing this, Old Man Xu's tone became less clear, and he stammered, "This is the legendary 'World Tree' that supports countless planes, and it's rooted in the underworld!"
