NOVPUB"I’m not afraid," Xu Zimei said indifferently.
"Friend, do you know the origin of this Tree Demon?" the City Lord of Worry-Free City continued to ask.
"I do not," Xu Zimei replied, shaking his head slightly.
The Forgetfulness Tree was roaring, and with each sway of its massive body, it shook heaven and earth.
Countless cracks appeared on the ground.
At that moment, a few hundred branches carrying sharp Jing Qi tore through layers of space, charging towards Xu Zimei to kill him.
"Friend, how about we join forces to subdue this tree demon?" the City Lord of Worry-Free City looked at Xu Zimei and tentatively suggested.
Xu Zimei did not speak; he watched the approaching branches.
He directly drew the Tyrant Shadow from his back, its blade erupting with a blade light that reached the heavens.
"Way of Inquiry, the twelfth form: Annihilation Void."
The blade light, carrying the sharpness to shatter the void, echoed with "boom boom boom" as explosions reverberated around.
At this moment, it was not just space; all the surrounding branches were shattered and broken.
Thunderbolt crackled "pitter-patter" on the blade.
With a single slash from Xu Zimei, all the branches of the Forgetfulness Tree directly in front of him were annihilated.
However, before he could react, countless more branches descended from the sky.
They bound Xu Zimei tightly.
He was bound by branches from all sides, then pulled in several different directions at once.
It was somewhat reminiscent of being torn apart by five horses.
Seeing Xu Zimei trapped, the City Lord of Worry-Free City’s color changed to panic.
With a strong Holy Power around him, he stepped into thin air and shouted, "Fear not, I’m coming to save you."
Then he clenched his fists, golden Spiritual Energy converging around him.
He himself seemed like the first rising sun, shining brightly.
HIs fists shone with brilliant gold, smashing directly towards the branches binding Xu Zimei.
Just as he was about to hit the branches, the City Lord of Worry-Free City’s direction of his punch suddenly changed, striking directly at Xu Zimei’s back.
With a "bang,"
Endless waves of force fluctuated around, shattering the surrounding space.
The City Lord of Worry-Free City was laughing wildly, his laughter echoing in mid-air, particularly grating on the ears.
Xu Zimei slowly turned his head, looking calmly at the City Lord of Worry-Free City.
The City Lord’s facial expression froze, and his laughter abruptly ceased.
"How, how are you unharmed?"
He asked in disbelief.
"Because you’re too weak," Xu Zimei said indifferently.
Then, a formidable Blade Intent surged around him, consolidating near his body.
It immediately severed all the branches that bound him.
In an instant, he grabbed the City Lord of Worry-Free City by the neck with one hand and lifted him high into the air.
"You can’t kill me, I am the City Lord appointed by the Heaven Tiger Empire; only they have the right to judge me."
Grasping at straws, the City Lord of Worry-Free City shouted, "This is outright defiance of the Empire!"
"It doesn’t matter," Xu Zimei said flatly.
"Actually, I’ve been suspicious of you from the beginning, just without evidence.
The legend of Worry-Free City has been circulating for so long, with people being force-fed the Oblivion Fruit in the middle of the night, causing widespread panic.
The city residents have already become afraid to go out at night.
And you, as the City Lord, do nothing about it, even suppressing the matter with the Heaven Tiger Empire.
It’s hard for me to believe that you and this Forgetfulness Tree aren’t in cahoots."
Hearing Xu Zimei’s words, the City Lord of Worry-Free City’s face changed drastically.
"Save me," he shouted at the Forgetfulness Tree.
He struggled desperately.
Xu Zimei snorted coldly and grabbed the opponent’s neck, squeezing hard.
The Worry-Free City Lord’s neck was almost snapped, as Xu Zimei drew his sword and Wu Geng’s Blade Qi burst forth.
Rampaging wildly in midair.
It obliterated the Worry-Free City Lord’s corpse along with his True Fate.
The death of the Worry-Free City Lord made the Forgetfulness Tree even more furious.
Its branches, one after another, some merging together.
Others spreading out like blooming flowers, attacking Xu Zimei from all directions.
In any case, these branches were endless and could grow infinitely.
Xu Zimei knew that only by lifting the Forgetfulness Tree off the ground could he fully restrain it.
Watching the branches coming at him, Xu Zimei’s figure suddenly flashed.
He grabbed several of the branches, his forehead veins bulging, trying to uproot the Forgetfulness Tree.
However, the Forgetfulness Tree’s strength was far greater than Xu Zimei’s, and despite his full effort, it was to no avail.
Seeing this scene, Xu Zimei’s figure started to retreat rapidly.
He rose into the air and stood in midair.
Behind him, a cerulean planet rose slowly amidst shrouded mist.
The moment this cerulean planet rose, strands of misty aura enveloped the surroundings.
A "boom boom boom" sound of space shattering followed.
At this moment, it was as if even time around had come to a standstill.
The cerulean planet seemed to contain an unimaginably terrifying power.
With a "bang," the cerulean planet began to spin rapidly.
Again, countless branches surged from all directions, completely surrounding Xu Zimei.
Seeing this situation, Xu Zimei let out a light chuckle.
He directly jumped into the cerulean planet.
And the branches did not hesitate, following right behind him.
When all the branches entered Xu Zimei’s True Fate World, the Dragon Clan that had been prepared inside soared into the sky.
The dragons’ roar filled the fields as they flew among the clouds and fog.
Row upon row of dragons, each with different attributes and colors, descended from the sky.
There were hundreds of them, including Chaos and the ten ancient Divine Beasts.
Each grabbed countless branches and began to pull.
Xu Zimei sealed off the entire True Fate World, trapping all the branches that had come in and tried to flee.
With so many beings pulling together, the Forgetfulness Tree outside started to panic.
It struggled furiously, creating a tug-of-war with the multitude of creatures.
Xu Zimei was unafraid, with the Tree of Life supplying from behind, these dragons were pulling with all their might.
This scene lasted for nearly half an hour, and the ground where the Forgetfulness Tree stood began to shake, resulting in countless cracks.
Emerald leaves swayed gently with the breeze, eventually falling down.
The massive trunk of the Forgetfulness Tree started to shudder.
A "crackling" sound came from underground.
Its trunk slowly grew taller, and this scene continued for about an hour.
The cracking of the earth around accelerated, with tremendous momentum.
Finally, with a "boom,"
The entire Forgetfulness Tree was utterly uprooted.
At the moment it left the ground, the Forgetfulness Tree didn’t even have time to react before it was directly pulled into Xu Zimei’s True Fate World.
...…
After entering the True Fate World, the Forgetfulness Tree hadn’t even had a chance to take in its surroundings before it was surrounded by hundreds of dragons.
Above, the Tree of Life swept down with endless Holy Power in an overwhelming Suppression. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝒐𝒎
The Forgetfulness Tree couldn’t even put up a fight.
