Legend of Swordsman

Wu Li’s eyes flickered, nodding in agreement.

A smile instantly spread across his face as he approached Jian Wushuang, patting his chest, “We’re on the same side. Even without your words, I would still stand by you!”

Though somewhat insincere, the sentiment was comforting.

In truth, Wu Li deferred to the treant because of his own lack of strength. Even at the Half- Step Sixth Tribulation realm, his divine power could only burst to around eight hundred thousand, a meager amount. This divine power was practically useless outside.

For the upcoming mission to seize the Dragon Balls, he would need the support of the treant.

“Thanks!” Jian Wushuang expressed genuine gratitude this time.

Wu Li had intended to pat him on the shoulder, but thought better of it. His hand hovered awkwardly before patting the air, “It’s nothing!”

“How long do you need me to hold out?” Jian Wushuang took a deep breath, already sending a message to Li Sheng.

Seizing the Dragon Balls would happen swiftly, but breaking through required preparation.

The Grand Elder understood the risks involved. He paused before speaking, “I’ve already communicated with Elder Blu. As long as you can hold out for the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Blu will fuse with the Four Great Holy Sons, becoming the strongest warrior in our clan!”

“An incense stick’s worth of time!” Wu Li clenched his teeth but ultimately agreed.

Everything was in place.

“Let’s begin then!” Jian Wushuang immediately activated the Super Eternal Ancient Transformation, placing a hand on Wu Li’s shoulder. He then turned to the Grand Elder, “Please teleport me out.”

“I’m going too!” Danbao spoke up at this moment.

Jian Wushuang had initially wanted to object, but considering Danbao’s ability to quickly restore their divine power, he saw her as an asset.

He wouldn’t be able to help others regain their divine power later, especially when facing Gula.

Seizing the Dragon Balls would undoubtedly provoke Gula’s wrath.

Speed was crucial.

Time was running out for him.

Outside forces would undoubtedly take notice of him soon.

In fact, it was much like what Wu Li had mentioned.

The entire Ancient Wood Holy Land was in chaos now.

Dozens of scattered experts at the Seventh Tribulation Realm had already entered negotiations with the Ancient Wood Sect.

It was termed negotiations, but in reality, it was coercion.

They demanded that the Ancient Wood Sect transport them to the Infinite Great World.

Things had escalated to this point.

Even with the personal arrival of the Divine Wood King, it was futile.

However, if these individuals knew that the current Divine Wood King could still unleash peak strength, they might not have dared to cause such a commotion.

“Regardless of anything, the Sacred Assembly has not concluded yet. No one is allowed to enter, that’s the rule set by the Divine Wood King, and no one can break it!”

“Hmph!”

A Seventh Tribulation realm powerhouse from within a hidden realm stepped forward, loudly declaring, “You say we can’t enter, so we can’t? Who knows how many of your own people you’ve sent in!”

Other Seventh Tribulation realm powerhouses also joined in the clamor.

The head of the Ancient Wood Sect was in an unfortunate situation.

The major players were nowhere to be seen, leaving him, a minor figure, to handle everything outside!

Although he held the position of sect head, he only managed trivial matters.

The real important affairs were managed by those supreme elders.

And there was also the Divine Wood King.

Now, these people had disappeared without a trace.

Leaving him to fend off all by himself.

“These old folks!”

The madness of the scattered experts.

The silence of the Universe Master.

Tonghe Sword Immortal and Shi Kingdom sat together, but now, apart from Li Xing, all the

Shi Kingdom experts had gone to find the head of the Ancient Wood Sect.

Even the Patriarch of the Yue Kingdom took the lead.

He was the son-in-law of the Yue Kingdom, after all.

Outwardly, he stood for justice.

“Aren’t you going to join the fun, Elder Li?” Tonghe Sword Immortal looked at Li Xing, surprised that he hadn’t gone. Though Li Xing’s vitality was still vigorous, it was wise to plan

ahead.

Li Xing grasped the pendant in his hand, smiling, “I prefer being passive. Being too proactive

isn’t good!”

Of course, it also depended on who he was being proactive with.

They were well aware of Jian Wushuang’s potential.

Things weren’t as simple as they appeared.

There would definitely be Eighth Tribulation realm figures involved.

This wasn’t the time to be impatient.

In the sacred grounds of the Ancient Wood Sect, four out of the ten Seventh Tribulation realm experts under Babidi’s command had arrived.

“It’s quite something,” remarked one of the four, all of whom recognized Jian Wushuang.

Now, it all depended on Emperor Babidi’s intentions.

Within the chaotic void streams, the cosmic boat drifted aimlessly.

Inside the cabin, Babidi had long received the news.

He had already surrounded Jian Wushuang’s clone with his men.

However, Jian Wushuang’s clone was currently devoid of any consciousness, as if completely

severed.

“Lord Babidi, why don’t we just head straight to the Ancient Wood Sect and capture his true body?” suggested Dylan, his gaze ice-cold as he stared at Jian Wushuang.

The others, due to Babidi’s secret technique, no longer thirsted as much for the power of Life.

Moreover, they had learned that Jian Wushuang’s Life force had not fluctuated much.

Babidi’s claw scratched his chin, clearly pondering something.

Compared to Jian Wushuang, his plans were more crucial.

The reason he valued Jian Wushuang was because of Mie Sheng.

Only Life could defeat Mie Sheng.

If he wanted to use Jian Wushuang to defeat Mie Sheng, he had to first control Jian Wushuang.

Unfortunately, he was somewhat losing control now.

He had considered the Holy Land of the Ancient Wood Sect.

There was also that Wanliu Tree, containing something even he couldn’t fathom.

But inside was a key artifact related to resurrection secrets.

Resurrection!

That was Babidi’s alias for the secret technique.

It was also his grandest plan.

Babidi had experienced much in the Starry Sky, understanding that this world had gods.

Only those gods could stand above all.

The Tribulation Realm was but a joke.

Even the Ninth Tribulation could fall.

Babidi aimed to use the Nine Tribulations of the nine great spacetimes to achieve his path to

godhood.

This plan was even crazier than Mie Sheng’s.

But now he had the capital for it.

“Chi Jiuxiao, it’s time for you to move!” Babidi raised his eyelids, revealing his swirling eyes,

gleaming with cold light.

The Ancient Wood Sect!

Soon it became the core of the entire Ancient Moon Spacetime.

And all of this was because of Jian Wushuang’s exposed Life force.

In the Infinite Great World.

Jian Wushuang and his group had already begun their actions.

At the same time, above the Infinite Great World, in the core of the formation array, dozens of

super experts were jointly destroying the core of the formation array.

The formation array was established by the Ancient Wood Sect.

Now they were dismantling it themselves.

It just took a bit of time.

To enter the Infinite Great World, it would still take at least a day.

As long as they could hold off those Seventh Tribulation realm existences outside, they would

be able to gain control of Jian Wushuang first.

“Who set up this formation array back then?” asked an elder wearing a green high hat.

The crowd paused for a moment, then explained, “It was set up by the Seventh Elder!”

“Old Seven!” The elder in the high hat fell silent for a moment, then continued to destroy the core of the formation array.
