Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens.

Chapter 19: Devouring Human Minds is Extremely Harmful
"I think this man-devouring creature is beyond saving."

After changing his mindset, Xu Qing felt a pang of heartache, as if he had dropped a million dollars on the street when he was an ordinary person and hadn't bothered to pick it up.

He hadn't ventured into the wilderness to hunt monsters in a long time; after all, it was a thankless and arduous task, only earning him enough to buy materials.

But now, when he thinks of the monsters in the wilderness and the sea, he only sees them as spirits of plants and trees, simply running on land and swimming in water.

They were just waiting for a master alchemist to refine all their flesh, blood, essence, and energy into a pill.

But all he did was kill them and then sell a portion of the tough materials?

The mind-devouring effect is extremely harmful!

Xu Qing smiled bitterly to himself.

Sigh, there's nothing we can do. The Devourer is the boss; all it does is train and eat. Its technology relies entirely on archaeology, and its weapons depend entirely on good materials.

As for alchemy? Do we, the Devouring Lord, need to develop such a business?
Let's talk to the air (cosmic energy) in my home.

We Devourer Grandpa gain strength even from eating air.

"Damn it."

Xu Qing almost laughed out of anger, then looked at the ancient willow tree in the distance, which was over a hundred meters tall.

Thinking back to the fact that he initially came only for the spirits of plants and trees, Xu Qing felt that he had also been infected by the Devourer.

I own this Zhutian Pavilion, and I'll have all kinds of customers in the future.

In the world of Yang Shen, when the soul drives a flying sword, the best is blood-patterned steel with human veins, and the second best is a wooden sword with veins.

The soul enters into it, and even when facing a Martial Saint, it is unaffected by blood and qi, and can unleash its full power.

The Peach God Sword is so precious that it can be used as a treasure of the sect because it has the characteristics of a wooden sword, yet it is as hard as blood-patterned steel and can cut through iron like mud.

Moreover, this ancient willow tree is incredibly hard; even a peak-level War God couldn't damage it. With such a massive trunk, how many flying swords could be made that surpass the Peach God Sword?
Thinking of this, Xu Qing turned around and said to Luo Feng:
"Luo Feng, protect yourself later, or go somewhere far away."

"What?" Before Luo Feng could react, he felt a tremendous surge of mental power erupt from Xu Qing, sweeping outwards like a shockwave!
"This?!" Luo Feng couldn't believe it.

Xu Qing has just demonstrated the power of a mentalist.

However, the mental power that is now being displayed is far too terrifying in both quality and quantity compared to Luo Feng.

His immense spiritual power directly enveloped the entire island, which was over ten kilometers in diameter!
Boom! ! !
The next moment, violent tremors and deafening noises resounded throughout the entire island!

Heaven and earth are turned upside down!

As far as Luo Feng could see, the ground was cracked like a spider web, as if an earthquake of more than magnitude 12 was violently erupting. The rocks and soil were almost boiling like boiling water, forming waves of earth more than ten meters high!

"What happened?!"

Luo Feng instinctively used his mental power to lift himself up, but the moment he looked up, his pupils shrank to pinpoints.

He saw things he couldn't understand!
"rise!"

Xu Qing let out a low shout, as if a decree had been issued by a god!

Then, the nine towering willow trees rose into the sky amidst violent shaking. Their massive root systems, stretching over a thousand meters, were uprooted, as if an entire mountain had taken flight. The falling boulders crashed to the ground with a deafening roar.

Not only that, the entire island was trembling violently, and all sorts of strange-looking flowers, plants and trees were uprooted and flew towards Xu Qing.

Seeing this scene, Luo Feng was almost trembling with fear.

"Is this guy a god of war?!"

…………

"That's a Polinus family flying machine?"

Inspector Liu He and his personal guards watched as the fighter jets flew out of Wudao at top speed.

"Could it be that someone has already beaten them to it?!"

The two exchanged a glance. Had these two beings, both surpassing the level of war gods, made a wasted trip?
Liu He snorted coldly and immediately flew out of the cabin to intercept the fighter jet.

But as soon as the enemy fighter's cockpit door opened, before Liu He could speak, a giant man inside saw him and said with a face full of grief and indignation:

"Inspector Liu, didn't you give all the spirits of plants and trees to your Limitless Martial Arts Academy?"

"Katlan and Li Yao are both dead, do you still want to exterminate them all?!"

Liu He, who was about to question them, looked bewildered and shocked upon hearing this:

"what are you saying?"

The Phantom Demon and the Vulture are dead? They were top 100 strongest warriors on Earth, possessing the Black God Set.

Who killed him?
Extreme Martial Arts Academy?

"Could it be that Luo Feng killed him?" Liu He thought of the little guy who was still on the island.

He couldn't believe it and was about to ask more questions. Boom!

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from the island, and the shockwave blew away the fog over the entire island, startling the four people on the lake.

The lord-level monsters that were originally in the water also scattered and fled.

Before they could understand what was happening, an even louder noise suddenly erupted.

boom! ! !
The sound roared, echoing throughout the universe, like a pillar of heaven collapsing, the heavens and earth turning upside down, and the whole world trembling.

The island in front of us is almost falling apart.

With an endless roar.

With a whoosh, a vine over a kilometer long, resembling a pillar of heaven, shot up from the island.

One end of the vine was rooted in the island, while the other end disappeared into the clouds, stretching as far as the eye could see. Then, a second, a third... a total of sixteen vines broke through the water, like sixteen bridges connecting heaven and earth, spanning between the sky and the land.

As they waved, the air shattered, like a giant whipping the clouds in the sky.

Ivan and Keita, who had just escaped, turned pale upon seeing this; if they had been any slower, they would have been dead.

Even Bing Shan and Liu He's expressions changed upon seeing this scene.

Even if they were wearing the Black God suit, they couldn't possibly survive the vine whipping!
"Could this also be a spirit of plants?" Iceberg couldn't believe it.

Liu He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"This is no longer a situation we can control. We should report it to the Master, and he will probably take action personally."

After he finished speaking, he was about to transmit the image in front of him back to headquarters.

But the next second his expression changed.

"Damn it, Luo Feng is still inside."

Looking at the long vine that stretched from heaven to earth, Liu He suddenly cried out in alarm.

"How could a war god like him survive under such circumstances..."

This was a genius whom even the head of the museum considered one of the best. Could he have fallen from grace?
Just as Liu He was lamenting that the Extreme Martial Arts Academy had lost a promising talent.

Swish!
A shadow suddenly flew over from a distance and stopped in front of them.

It was none other than Luo Feng.

"Luo Feng, you actually made it out of there alive?"

Seeing this, Liu He was both surprised and delighted, and quickly asked:
"How many Spirits of Plants and Trees did you obtain?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"Not a single one; Xu Qing picked them all."

“Xu Qing?” Liu He was taken aback. “That seems to be the War God who was promoted a few days ago. He’s from the Limit Martial Arts Academy.”

At this point, Liu He looked at the island in the distance, which was almost reduced to ruins.

He shook his head and said:

"Alas, what a pity, humanity has lost another god of war."

Luo Feng was also shocked when he heard this:

"Inspector Liu, you didn't know that Xu Qing is beyond the level of a War God?"

He had assumed that these beings, who were beyond the level of war gods, knew of Xu Qing's power.

"Surpassing the God of War? Xu Qing?"

Liu He was completely stunned when he heard this.

Before he could recover, the world was suddenly filled with a bright light, turning what was originally night into day!
"boom!!"

It was as if the sun had descended, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes. Billions of bolts of lightning danced wildly in the sky above the misty island like silver snakes, enveloping all the vines that were like bridges between heaven and earth.

Endless steam rose, and in an instant, billions of tons of river water were evaporated from the entire lake.

When the white light faded, the entire island, along with at least one-fifth of the lake, disappeared.

The long vines that stretched across the sky also fell down, their power gone.

Luo Feng stared at the scene, dumbfounded. After a long while, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice:
"The one who just fought against that long vine was Xu Qing..."

Iceberg and Willow River, beings surpassing even the God of War, were now completely blank in their minds.

I cannot understand or describe the scene before me, and I cannot comprehend anything Luo Feng said.
