Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 523 The Strongest World Tree

Bai Yang was still standing a billion kilometers away from Tree Island at this time.

He was simply approaching; it wouldn't trigger an attack from the strongest World Tree.

Once you get to the island, if you want to get any closer, you have to be prepared to be attacked at any time.

"The tree island contains plants of other universe venerable level, and the seawater is the body of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds."

I'm making too much noise; they're bound to find out.

If he reveals his identity and actively seeks it, he might not be unable to obtain the consent of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

However, for the sake of leaves that are as insignificant as dandruff to the World Tree, they might be forced to join the peripheral organization of the Ancestral God Cult of the Nine Netherworld lineage.

Bai Yang was truly unwilling to even ask for a favor in return.

He is full of confidence in the future, and his favors are very valuable.

"Let's stick to the normal adventurer's approach."

If one truly wants to ask the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds for a favor, one should choose the Imperial Sea Water; the World Tree is simply not qualified.

A sub-body of the Abyss suddenly appeared beside Bai Yang's main body, and then the main body flew back towards the desolate rock island.

At this moment, the appearance and physique of the Abyss Sub-body have changed somewhat from before, and under normal circumstances, no one would recognize him as a clone of the Sword Mist King.

Then he teleported towards the tree island, his body emanating the genuine plant life force.

Upon entering the island, the Abyss Subbody immediately sensed an extremely strong aura of plant life.

He looked around and saw that the island had an endless variety of plant species.

"Although the average genetic level is not as high as that of the plant dragons in Rilongta, the number of species here is far superior."

Bai Yang disguised himself as an immortal king of plant life, and as before, he would occasionally pick up and pluck various plant tissues that existed around him.

Just like rock-based life forms eat rocks, and metal-based life forms devour metal.

This is something many plant life forms do, and no one would find it strange.

People are more tolerant of each other when it comes to the same type of life forms.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the Abyss Subbody did not encounter any danger.

Plants are naturally reluctant to move. Even if a powerful life form discovers them, they will ignore Bai Yang as long as they don't provoke him.

With the genetic nourishment of the vast array of plant species on the entire tree island, the Abyss offspring took the opportunity to further enhance their genetic level.

With just these gains, Bai Yang's trip was already worthwhile, and he had received tangible benefits.

With the help of teleportation, the Abyss Sub-body naturally explored most of the area surrounding Tree Island.

During this time, the World Tree did not react to his appearance, seemingly acquiescing to his existence.

"That's about it. The strongest World Tree should have discovered me long ago."

If they're ignoring me, then I'll just move closer to it.

On the entire Tree Island, the strongest World Tree naturally resides in the very center.

The other eight World Trees surround the island, and the nine World Trees alone occupy about a quarter of the entire island's territory.

The Abyss Sub-Entity is pretending to come here to collect plants, and it would be very strange if it didn't become curious about the largest and strongest World Tree.

Bai Yang controlled his clone and advanced towards the core area.

They remain humble and unhurried, and when they see plants that they haven't absorbed before, they will stop and collect some for a while.

Everything seemed perfectly normal.

Two days later, the Abyss Sub-entity arrived at the outermost area of ​​the nine World Trees.

The nine emerald-green World Trees emitted bursts of emerald light, forming layers of halos.

The aura seemed to have some kind of blocking or warning effect; it appeared that nothing else could pass through the area.

Upon arriving at this location, the abyssal sub-entity discovered that it was tens of millions of kilometers away from the trunk of the nearest World Tree.

Just like Luo Feng had done before, Bai Yang found no fallen leaves in this area.

Above the edge of the aperture, the canopy of the World Tree extends outwards.

For the Abyss Sub-body, this is exactly the distance it can reach by teleporting through the aperture in one go.

Having learned from Luo Feng's experience in the original work, Bai Yang had naturally prepared the Fire God Source Crystal long ago.

As long as the strongest World Tree doesn't interfere, he will definitely succeed.

After all, all World Trees have the same genes; the only difference is their cultivation level.

On the remote, desolate island, Baiyang's true form had long ago found a cave as a temporary dwelling.

At this point, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

The aura of the Abyss Sub-body is too unique; if we fail, the World Tree will discover it.

Even if one could self-destruct, the other party would inevitably remember their presence.

If you want to get close to the World Tree again, you will have to use the [Imitation Cloud Robe] to change your soul aura.

Whether the strongest World Tree will make a move again is entirely unknown; it's really a matter of luck.

Bai Yang had always cherished this precious item and didn't want to lose it.

Although the Demon Slayer Clan's clones are weak in combat, their ability to transform into various inconspicuous objects at will is indeed very convenient.

Bai Yang directed the Abyss Sub-body to glance at the area outside the light circle a few times, examine it carefully, and then walk away.

They acted as if they knew this place was some kind of forbidden place and chose to give up immediately.

He returned to a place thousands of miles away from the aperture and continued searching for and examining various rare plants.

Hidden spatial fluctuations were triggered at his fingertips, and thin golden threads appeared continuously.

In a very slow and discreet way, they slowly combined to form a golden roll.

The ability to spread across the universe cannot be released or used in advance within the World Ring.

If Bai Yang wants to set up a special spatial passage in a certain location, he needs to construct it in the space near the starting point.

While secretly activating a secret technique, the Abyss Sub-body was also prepared to teleport away at any moment.

The strongest World Tree is ultimately just a force of the universe's ruler; in essence, it is still a cosmic overlord.

Without the ability to control time and space, they ultimately failed to notice Bai Yang's subtle actions.

A golden scroll, whose teleportation range covers the area around the World Tree's aura, began to gradually take shape.

After Bai Yang finished making sure everything was in order, he did not immediately launch the attack.

Instead, they deliberately waited another half hour before taking action.

The Abyss Sub-body stood up and walked towards the outside of the island.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared in front of him, and he stepped into a cylindrical passage that looked like a roll of golden cloth.

A spatial ring in his hand shattered, and ten Fire God Source Crystals rolled out and suddenly disappeared.

Within the World Tree's aura, these Vulcan Source Crystals suddenly appeared on the canopy of one of the trees.

Then it was detonated immediately!

"Ah! Who is it?!"

Someone attacked me!

An angry, cold voice came from among countless emerald branches and leaves, a World Tree of the World Lord level roaring angrily.

However, the Abyss Sub-body, located in the crevice of the golden cloth scroll passage, also activated the "Shadow Rift Calamity".

This small world tree only has the cultivation of a world lord, so it is impossible for it to find his whereabouts!

Rumble~

The tree canopy around the explosion point of the Vulcan Source Crystal was reduced to nothingness, and many branches were broken and blasted away by the powerful shock wave.

Countless tattered leaves flew like arrows in all directions under the shockwave, filling the sky with them!

Naturally, many of them entered the spatial passage set up by Bai Yang through an invisible portal!

"who!?"

A tremendous voice carrying a terrifying will suddenly came from beside Bai Yang's ear!

The strongest World Tree!
