Chapter 3588: Removing the Obstacles in His Path With Ease

‘My comprehension of the law of space isn’t strong enough,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He had gone almost all out earlier, but he only managed to match Tan Jin. Based on this, it could be seen how terrifyingly profound Tan Jin’s comprehension of the law of metal was. It should be noted that he had cast his Mastery Dao and Sword Dao as well; the forces of the two Daos were significant as well. Even then, he did not gain the upper hand. He only fought to a draw with Tan Jin after using about 70% to 80% of his strength.
‘As expected of one of the strongest Nine Stars Gods of War in the Nine Serenities Battlefield,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. Although he knew his opponents were powerful, he was still amazed by them.
Similarly, Tan Jin was shocked by Duan Ling Tian’s strength as well. ‘Duan Ling Tian is so powerful even without his prominent divine artifact with a soul?’
Tan Jin had also fought using all of his strength earlier, and yet, he fought to a draw with Duan Ling Tian. His expression turned grim immediately, and his eyes were filled with wariness when he looked at Duan Ling Tian again. He sighed in relief inwardly when he saw He Chun Li drew close to their Divine Elements from the corners of his eyes. Even if he failed to defeat Duan Ling Tian, at least he managed to hold Duan Ling Tian back long enough for He Chun Li to save their Divine Elements.
If Yang Meng and Shou Huo saw this, they would have been flooded with relief as well. Unfortunately, they were fully focused on fighting Huang’er at this moment to notice such a thing. They knew they could not afford to be distracted when fighting such a powerful opponent.
The number of Shou Huo’s beasts slowly dwindled. They were slowly but surely being overpowered. It was clear they would not be able to hold on for long.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The deadly seven-colored sword rays continued to shoot out. Yang Meng and Shou Huo knew if they were even a little careless, they might very well die.
“Clear Heavens Divine Wood!” He Chun Li advanced unimpeded. It did not take long for her to arrive in front of the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon. She looked at her Clear Heavens Divine Wood and said excitedly, “I’m here to save you!”
He Chun Li did not waste and struck immediately.
Thick vines appeared out of thin air, formed from her energy. They snaked toward the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon and attacked it. It was clear from their movements that He Chun Li intended to destroy the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon.
When the vines twined around the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon, it glowed with a five-colored light. Following that, it forcefully repelled the vines’ attacks.
He Chun Li was taken aback by the strong defenses of the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon. She had struck with all her might earlier, and yet, it was useless.
In fact, He Chun Li’s attacks were not useless. Perhaps, if she had continued striking, she would have been able to breach the Formation’s defenses. However, at this moment, a horrified expression could be seen on her face as she looked at her Clear Heavens Divine Wood and exclaimed in disbelief, “Clear Heavens Divine Wood, why are you helping them?’
It was not just He Chun Li’s Clear Heavens Divine Wood. He Chun Li discovered that Tan Jin’s Profound Divine Metal, Shou Huo’s Chaos Divine Flame, Yang Meng’s Chaos Divine Earth, and even the dead Han Xuan’s World Cleansing Divine Water were helping the Pine Willow Divine Tree to resist her attacks. She was even more horrified when she discovered the Divine Elements seemed to have dimmed slightly when she attacked.
On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements and the Pine Willow Divine Tree seemed unaffected. The only changes that could be seen from Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements were their fluctuating energies as they continued to devour their counterparts. The process was rather slow, but after He Chun Li’s attacks, its speed increased. It was as though He Chun Li was helping them.
In fact, this was all thanks to the Five Divine Elements Devouring Formation. The World Cleansing Divine Water had lived for a long time and had foreseen everything. It had anticipated He Chun Li’s actions and had made necessary preparations.
“It’s the Formation!” Initially, He Chun Li did not understand why her attacks weakened their Divine Elements when she had attacked the Pine Willow Divine Tree. However, she found the answer after she used her Divine Consciousness to probe around. She realized that their Divine Elements were providing energy to the Pine Willow Divine Tree! Not only that, but their Five Divine Elements were also powering the Formation.
He Chun Li’s fury surged when she discovered this. ‘What a despicable bast*rd! Not only did he plot to steal our Divine Elements, he even made us unknowingly attack our Divine Elements!’
‘I have no time for this now. The most important thing is to save them. It doesn’t matter if they lose some of their energy. All they need to do is rest and recover…’
He Chun Li quickly cleared her mind and began to attack the Pine Willow Divine Tree again. She was rather curious how long the Pine Willow Divine Tree’s Godly Phenomenon could withstand her attacks with their Divine Elements protecting it.
When He Chun Li was about to strike again, she saw Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements that were shrouded by the powerful vitality energy.
‘That’s right! How can I forget about them! Since they’re so engrossed in devouring our Divine Elements, I should seize the chance and strike them now! With that, they’ll be greatly weakened, unable to continue devouring our Divine Elements! In fact, I can even use this chance to let our Divine Elements devour them!’
He Chun Li’s eyes lit up brightly. She did not hesitate to attack Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements.
The vines switched targets and snaked toward Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements immediately.
However, she quickly discovered their Divine Elements’ energies were also protecting Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements.
“D*mn it! It’s the Formation again!”
He Chun Li was so frustrated that she almost coughed out blood.
At this moment, the Nine Stars Gods of War’s Divine Elements were growing dimmer and dimmer as the speed of Duan Ling Tian’s Five Divine Elements devouring them increased. After all, He Chun Li’s previous attack had just given them another boost.
Infuriated, He Chun Li continued attacking, depleting more and more of their Divine Elements’ energies. She could not care about this now since the Divine Elements would be able to recover their energies later.
‘I’ll be able to deplete our Divine Elements’ energies with another two blows. With that, I’ll be able to stop the Formation,’ He Chun Li thought to herself as her eyes lit up hopefully.
However, before He Chun Li struck, she heard a desperate cry.
“Tan Jin, He Chun Li, save me!”
He Chun Li’s expression changed drastically. She turned around just in time to watch Yang Meng being killed by the artifact soul of Duan Ling Tian’s prominent divine artifact. Chills ran up her spine, and fear flooded her heart immediately. Yang Meng’s had the strongest defenses among them, but even he could not withstand the artifact soul’s attacks.
Similarly, Tan Jin’s expression changed as well. He did not expect Yang Meng to die.
He Chun Li and Tan Jin were still shocked by Yang Meng’s deaths when they heard Shou Huo’s cries.
With Yang Meng’s death, Shou Huo had lost the barrier protecting him. With the barrier gone, the seven-colored sword rays rushed out and killed him.
In just a split second, two of the strongest Nine Stars Gods of War who dominated the Nine Serenities Battlefield died one after another.
When He Chun Li and Tan Jin looked at each other, they saw the fear shining in each other’s eyes. They began to fly in different directions as soon as they sensed Huang’er’s attention had turned to them. At this time, they no longer thought about saving their Divine Elements. They only wanted to save their own lives.
Whoosh!
The duo was focused on fleeing and had no intention of fighting Huang’er at all.
Alas, it was too late. In just a blink of an eye, Huang’er killed Tan Jin with her sword.
He Chun Li did not fly very far before she heard Tan Jin’s cries.. Her face paled when she sensed the killing intent at her back. She stopped moving and turned to look at Duan Ling Tian as she hurriedly cried out, “Duan Ling Tian, I’m willing to serve you as long as you spare me!”
