All of a sudden, all the forces on the planet started to move. Under the world-ending crisis, no one was spared. Of course, many skeptics didn’t send anyone.

But in general, there were still many people who went to Russia to start the plan to eradicate the willow tree.

In Russia, on a high mountain…

Zhao Hao was standing on the highest peak of the mountain as if he was measuring the height of the willow tree.

This mountain was only 2,000 meters tall. Compared to normal people, it could be considered a big mountain. However, compared to the willow tree in the distance, it was no different from a small mound…

“Eh, it’s really abnormal. How can it grow so fast? In just a short period, it has grown a few thousand meters. I’m afraid it will directly pierce into the universe…”

Realizing that even if he stood on a high mountain, he was still unable to measure the length of the willow tree, Zhao Hao could only sigh helplessly.

Fortunately, the willow tree’s devouring speed wasn’t fast. Zhao Hao had been keeping an eye on its cultivation, and it was still at the peak cycle of the Dimension Sundering realm.

As Zhao Hao’s phone had a GPS, his reinforcement quickly came looking for him.

The first to arrive was Russia’s Wild Bear Brigade. It was an organization similar to China’s SSF.

Its strength was slightly inferior to the SSF, but it still had a Level 9 expert.

This group of people approached Zhao Hao, and the Level 9 expert directly said, “You are Zhao Hao, Captain Zhao, right? Is this fellow really as terrifying as you say?”

‘Standard Mandarin.’

Originally, Zhao Hao had thought that there would be a communication barrier, but this person was clearly an elite and proficient in several languages.

Zhao Hao replied, “Yes. Didn’t you guys test it not long ago? Even the nukes did not injure it in the slightest. It even absorbed a lot of energy…”

The man’s expression was extremely ugly. That willow tree had already eaten countless commoners. Even their army could only station themselves from afar and did not dare to get within 100 kilometers of that willow tree.

The person who seemed to be the secretary added, “According to the calculations of our country’s biologists, the most terrifying thing about this willow tree should be its roots. Even its trunk is so tall. After their calculations, they’ve come to the conclusion that the roots of the willow tree probably already occupy more than half of our country’s underground.”

Only then did Zho Hao pat his head.

‘Why didn’t you think that a large tree would not only have its trunk exposed above the ground, but the roots underground were even bigger than the trunk?’

“It shouldn’t be a big problem. Let’s wait and see how strong the others that are on their way are.”

Zhao Hao had no other choice. He was already prepared to send people to Mount Li to negotiate. He reckoned that if Emperor Shi did not come out, there would really be no way to deal with this willow tree.

Soon, another group of people arrived. They were also the local forces of Russia. The leader was a hunchbacked old man whose long beard had already drooped to the ground.

After the introduction of the captain of the Wild Bear Brigade, this was the Archbishop of the Orthodox Church of Russia. He was also a Level 9 expert.

Zhao Hao checked everyone’s stats and shook his head helplessly. Although there were many Level 7 and Level 8 experts, they were no different from small fries in a battle of this level.

Fortunately, the next people who arrived gave Zhao Hao some confidence.

A large number of reinforcements from China arrived one after another.

Ma Zhuisheng brought a large number of SSF members. Among them there was Kong Qingshan, the head of the Kong family, who had made a move on Mount Li. There was also an old woman who looked to be in her 70s or 80s but had jet-black hair.

Looking at Zhao Hao’s doubtful gaze, Ma Zhuisheng stepped forward and introduced her, “This is the descendant of the northeast shamans, Granny Hua.”

Only then did Zhao Hao understand that although this Granny Hua was only an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, the northeast shamans seemed to have a method of inviting immortals, similar to the divine arts of the Maoshan lineage. Zhao Hao wondered how powerful a so-called immortal was in such an era.

Next, the Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu brought various Daoist priests. Zhao Hao also saw a familiar figure, Zhang Dongxuan.

The old Daoist who had wanted to take him as a disciple had only been at the peak cycle of the Nascent Soul realm at that time.

Zhao Hao used his Illusion-Breaking Divine Eyes and found that the old Daoist had actually broken through and was now an early-stage Soul Formation cultivator.

‘I’m afraid this one’s cultivation is the highest in the modern world…’.

Zhang Dongxuan also saw Zhao Hao, but he didn’t go up to talk to him. Instead, he nodded in a friendly manner. At first, he didn’t think that that strange kid would actually be able to grow to such a terrifying extent.

Fortunately, his Mount Longhu had not offended Zhao Hao.

Zhao Hao also nodded in response.

Soon, two groups came together, led by a monk and a Daoist.

The Daoist had peak-stage Golden Core cultivation, that is, Level 8. The monk was very strong, a peak-stage Nascent Soul Buddhist.

Zhao Hao wasn’t surprised that these two appeared. The country was huge, but it still had some resources.

The main thing was that behind the Daoist priest, there was a group of people who actually pulled a statue of a god that was dozens of feet tall. The statue’s power was shocking, and it held an Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in its hand. It was Guan Yu’s statue.

Ma Zhuisheng explained, “The Maoshan lineage has a long history. They can summon the true martial emperor to the mortal world to slay demons and devils…”

Zhao Hao couldn’t help but click his tongue. It was really like a little heifer returning home. And they even summoned immortals to come to the mortal world.

Zhang Tongxuan secretly spat on the ground. If it weren’t because someone had smashed his ancestral master’s statue, it wouldn’t have been the Maoshan lineage’s turn to show off.

Mount Longhu had always been the leader of the Daoist sect, but Mount Maoshan wasn’t much weaker than Mount Longhu.

As for the monk, he was the previous abbot of the White Horse Temple. He had originally been cultivating in seclusion, but Master Du Le had died during the battle with the Flood Dragon. The huge Buddhist community had no leader, so he had no choice but to step out of the mountain again to lead the Buddhist community.

Almost all the forces of China were present, followed by the arrival of experts from many countries.

However, the strongest did not exceed Zhao Hao’s expectations. They were only at the Nascent Soul realm. Even the biggest religion in the west, the Catholic Church, had only sent three Level 9 cardinals.

There were also two Level 9 paranormals of Northern Europe’s Scarlet Castle. One was a vampire, and the other was a werewolf.

When everyone was gathered, Zhao Hao did some serious calculations. The vast Earth was filled with talented people. There were a total of 23 Level 9 experts in this place, and there were even a few peak-stage Nascent Soul experts among them. Now that the Spiritual Qi had recovered, it wouldn’t be long before all of them broke through.

Earth would once again enter a glorious era.
