From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"Elijah, where is that 'seventeen' you mentioned?" Zhang Chulan asked immediately, as this was his sole purpose for coming to the island.

"Over there."

Elijah didn't ask any more questions and pointed them in the right direction. "However, since a lot of new people have come to the island recently, that 'Seventeen' has recently made a new friend... and besides you, the person who hired me to go to the Valley of the Twenty-Four Festivals has also sent people to the island to look for him. If you don't hurry, you might miss him."

Damn it!

Zhang Chulan had already confirmed that the person who hired Elijah was the Yaoxing Society, and that Qu Tong was the mastermind behind it. He hurriedly asked Elijah, "Can you teleport us there?"

"No."

Elijah, being a Nathan Guardian, was bound by duty. After refusing, he and Alfonso teleported away and disappeared near the beach.

"This ability is really convenient."

Lu Linglong looked at Feng Shayan beside her, "Shayan, can you do this much?"

"Me? Impossible!"

Feng Shayan denied it, "Although I have recently cultivated Qi and my control over innate abilities has become more and more exquisite, my Qi cannot cover the entire island to achieve the long-distance teleportation of their entire body like they do."

The principle behind Fengshayan's spatial teleportation skill is to bridge space within the range of her own Qi. It was precisely because she understood this that a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes. "Logically speaking, their spatial jumps and traversals should also rely on Qi to bridge space, but is the entire island covered by their Qi?"

"I didn't feel anything," Lu Lin denied.

"It might be some kind of escape technique."

Lu Linglong cultivated at the Quanzhen Longmen since childhood. Although she only tempered her body and mind, she also had some understanding of various Taoist methods and talismans, especially the Five Elements Escape Techniques, many of which relied on a medium to make long-distance spatial jumps for traveling or running away.

"It's not a magic escape technique."

Jiang Liu's figure reappeared. "It's the same spatial teleportation as the Sand Swallow. It does rely on 'Qi' covering the entire island to teleport and jump in space. And based on the teleportation methods of those two, I can roughly confirm two types."

# Chapter 645 The Divine Tree—Another Gathering of Qi

"Firstly, they teleport based on the detailed terrain they remember; secondly, they rely on their senses of all living things on the island to confirm the coordinates before teleporting."

At this point, Jiang Liu revealed an expression of amazement, repeatedly praising, "As expected of one of the greatest ancient witchcrafts of that continent of Europe, it has actually created such a massive aura!"

In Jiang Liu's perception, a towering tree rose into the sky, standing at the very center of the island. Its branches and leaves were lush, covering the entire island, and its roots were extensive, spreading outward from the core and taking root in the soil of the entire island. It also emitted a brilliant golden light, which was reflected in the inner world of all the creatures on the island.

no doubt.

That's the sacred tree of Nathan Island!

of course.

In terms of its physical form, the divine tree was not as exaggerated as Jiang Liu had perceived. The part of its trunk that grew out of the ground was not very tall, only about ten meters, but its root system was extremely large, truly deserving of the name "sacred forest".

Moreover, this divine tree possesses its own unique will and is already a "demon," yet it has established a divine kingdom, gathered faith, and is worshipped as a "god."

"Qi Ju?"

Zhang Chulan already had some understanding of the aura, and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jiang, do you mean this place is similar to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley?"

"uh-huh."

Jiang Liu, with his hands clasped to his chest, sensed the Nasen aura. "This island's aura radiates from the Divine Tree. King Nasen and the Nasen Guards are likely able to teleport by using the aura to their advantage."

To put it simply, you can think of the Qi Bureau as a large video game arena. Ordinary players can only move on their legs, but Elijah and his group are like signing a contract with the game developer, the Divine Tree, becoming employees and gaining access, essentially becoming administrators.

King Nathan was essentially a supervisor.

Before Zhang Chulan and the others could process this news, Jiang Liu clicked his tongue and added, "At the same time, the Divine Tree itself is an extremely unique human transmutation technique, but it seems that none of the previous Nathan Kings have truly mastered it..."

Throughout history, the Nathan kings have both died and lived, never truly unifying the empire. Even with immense power, they could never fully unleash it.

Furthermore, King Nathan was unaware of the power of worship, and his actions were solely for Nathan's survival...

Wait! (Continuing...)

Jiang Liu stopped abruptly, and under the strange gazes of Zhang Chulan and the others, he smiled and said, "So that's how it is, just for survival?"

Is it possible to elevate one's wisdom to such a level by entering the game with one's life on the line?

Unfortunately, I am a busybody and dislike others' will being dictated or sacrificed for me. The people of this island may seem free, but in reality, they have become your slaves from the moment they are born, and they have no true self.

This is because our paths are different!

A battle between us is inevitable!

After saying this, Jiang Liu's acupoints and nerve nodes were connected, emitting a starlight that ordinary people could not detect. The divine tree rooted in the inner world of all living beings on the island trembled slightly, as if it were reacting.

King Nathan's heart skipped a beat as he received a message from the divine tree: The War of the Gods!

In an instant.

King Nathan's pupils dilated. He summoned Elijah and asked, "Have any strange people come to the island recently?"

"Your Majesty, your question is... somewhat vague."

Elijah asked in confusion, "Has something happened?"

"The divine tree conveyed the message of the 'War of the Gods,' so there must be an entity on the island that is equal to the divine tree!"

King Nathan dared not conceal anything and gritted his teeth, saying, "Damn it! Not only is Behemoth eyeing our Nathan, but other restless beings are also coming to cause trouble at this time!"

When someone breaks the golden branch to challenge the old king, whether the old king kills the challenger and consolidates his throne, or the challenger kills the old king and becomes the new king, it is a normal process of the change of the throne.

Although Nathan's ancestors had made an agreement with the ancestors of the major supernatural forces around the world that Nathan's succession to the throne required their witness, there was actually no need to notify others in a big way. It would be enough to just inform them after the succession ceremony, or even not inform them at all.

After all, Nathan Island has no interests to cooperate with or conflicts with other forces.

But why would King Nathan do that?

Because this whole affair of the Golden Branch was abnormal in itself.

Something that hadn't happened for centuries was happening in this era—King Nathan speculated that this might be related to Behemoth.

Nathan Guard has a legitimate identity in the outside world, enabling him to understand changes in the outside world and collect relevant intelligence.

among them.

King Nathan was most concerned about the Behemoth faction.

The enemy has planted numerous spies on Nathan Island, clearly already eyeing Nathan with hostility! As queen, her only departure from Nathan was two days ago, but she had previously witnessed the power of modern weaponry…

The last time we went off the island, we invited other factions to send representatives to Nathan to "attend the ceremony." The real purpose was the same:

By getting involved, one can win amidst the chaos.

At the meeting, Behemoth jumped the most enthusiastically, which confirmed King Nathan's guess. Nathan Island's fighting strength was no match for Behemoth, and they couldn't even break ties with him afterwards.

Therefore, she hoped to use this opportunity to pull other forces off the field, thereby counterbalancing Behemoth.

Without him.

The global community of superhumans is not monolithic; there are countless instances of open and covert struggles and mudslinging among them, and certainly no one wants to see Behemoth annex Nathan Island.

Ideal scenario:

Let's keep the status quo!

Nathan Island remains independent of the world, living the way of life they have been accustomed to for thousands of years!

The reason she went to Shenzhou was because Shenzhou was the homeland of her bloodline, and she was genuinely curious and wanted to explore it. In addition, she also had some understanding of the world's situation. The only forces that could truly rival Behemoth and the country behind him were Na Du Tong and Shenzhou.

Unfortunately, no one has truly expressed their opinion...

Behemoth's aircraft carrier is scheduled to arrive in half a day, and although they have contacted the leaders of various major powers, none of them are truly willing to offer assistance.

This calamity—

It seems they really can only rely on themselves to get through this.

But now the Divine Tree has sent news of the "War of the Gods," leaving King Nathan somewhat bewildered. However, the crucial task remains protecting the Divine Tree and dealing with the Behemoth's armed personnel who will soon arrive on the island...

···

"Brother Jiang, who are you talking to?"

Zhang Chulan asked cautiously.

“Speak? No, it’s just sending a challenge to the true ruler of this island.”

Jiang Liu withdrew the radiance that resonated with the divine tree, chuckled, and said, "You can do whatever you want. I need to find my lost item first, and then wait for the divine tree to adjust itself to its best state before engaging in a thrilling and earth-shattering battle with it! Probably."

Zhang Chulan: "..."

A battle that could get Jiang Liu's blood boiling—

How strong is the opponent?

# Chapter 646 Nassen's Qi Array Diagram - Incomplete

"Then... shall we split up?"

Zhang Chulan asked tentatively.

"nature."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space around Jiang Liu's figure instantly distorted and he disappeared from the spot.

"Holy crap! Spatial teleportation!"

Zhang Chulan didn't expect Jiang Liu to have this ability. So why didn't he just teleport them here instead of flying over?

Naturally, this is because Jiang Liu can only freely use this ability on Nathan Island.

Without him.

Jiang Liu cultivated the "Forbidden Fruit of God - Modified," completing the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique, which elevated the Gathering Form and Dispersing Qi to the Indestructible Vajra of Gathering Form and the Invulnerable to All Laws of Dispersing Qi, respectively.

Ultimately, this technique originated from the Divine Tree. Even though Jiang Liu modified it based on his own acupoints and nerve nodes, it still shares the same origin.

therefore.

Once inside the area covered by the divine tree, one can easily create the aura created by the divine tree and teleport using the rhythm of the array patterns around them.

In addition, Jiang Liu also controls the Dharma Image Seal, one of the four methods of the Innate Symbol Diagram, Qiankun Mo Nong, which can better help him stabilize his body and perform spatial jumps and traversals during the process.
