The primordial demonic tree was extremely restless.
Watching its own created evil god battlefield gradually collapsing, the feeling was very irritating.
Even for It, to remake an evil god battlefield required a huge price, consuming countless years and ages.
But now.
It's gone.
Losing the evil god battlefield, coupled with the large amount of origin bestowed upon Lin Yuan.
At this moment, the primordial demonic tree felt like a gambler who had lost all their cards.
If it couldn't descend into the Azure World to make up for the loss, it would be a complete loss this time, and it didn't even know if it could recover in the future.
"Ancestor, what happened?"
Lin Yuan pretended to know nothing and asked with concern.After all, in the eyes of the primordial demonic tree, he was still struggling to survive in the Azure World.
Even though he had received a large amount of origin bestowed by the primordial demonic tree, what was the Azure World?
As long as he dared to reveal any trace, it would attract countless strong attackers, and even draw the attention of the Azure Alliance leader wielding the World Sword.
"I suffered a great loss of strength, and the Azure Alliance leader took advantage of it. By now, he has probably taken over the battlefield."
The primordial demonic tree didn't elaborate.
Instead, it asked directly, "For all these years, I have given you so much origin, why is your growth still so slow?"
Obviously.
The primordial demonic tree was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Yuan.
In the past hundred years, the demonic origin it had invested in Lin Yuan could probably have cultivated several sixth-stage demonic trees.
Even though there might be differences in the absorption of origin between different types of demonic trees, even those with the worst aptitude should have grown to the fifth stage by now.
"Ancestor, I'm just too useless. I've been chased and injured several times by demon beasts, on the brink of death, only able to heal using the origin bestowed by the Ancestor."
Lin Yuan had long prepared his answer and said quickly.
This reason was impeccable. In the Black Mist Mountain Range, there were a large number of demon beasts, even demon beast kings.
During Lin Yuan's growth, he would inevitably be noticed, after all, it was difficult to conceal the evil aura of the demonic tree.
Encountering a sixth-stage demon beast king, Lin Yuan couldn't resist. Once he was held back, it would attract more demon beast kings, making the situation even worse.
So he could only be hunted.
"Healing with my origin."
The primordial demonic tree's heart was bleeding. If Lin Yuan absorbed the origin to enhance himself, then after being swallowed by It, those origins could still come back.
But healing? This was completely futile.
"But, Ancestor, I have now grown to the peak of the fourth stage, just a little bit away from advancing to the fifth stage."
Lin Yuan said again.
"The peak of the fourth stage?"
The mood of the primordial demonic tree improved slightly.
This was also the only good news It had heard so far.
"How long will it take to grow to the fifth stage?"
The primordial demonic tree asked.
As long as Lin Yuan advanced to the fifth stage, his life essence would be strong enough to open a stable spatial passage.
"It should be possible within five years."
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and replied.
Five years, for extraterrestrial beings like demonic trees, was too short.
"No, no."
"Five years is too long."
The primordial demonic tree shook its head.
It wasn't a matter of time, but with the current situation on the evil god battlefield, many strong beings would probably return to the Azure World in five years.
After all, the war was over.
By then, even if Lin Yuan opened a spatial passage, there would still be risks after It descended.
"In that case, I'll send you some more origin, forcibly breaking through, striving to advance to the fifth stage within a year."
The primordial demonic tree scrutinized itself.
At this moment, only 70% of its original origin remained.
Even so, It still painfully directly took out 20% of the origin and sent it all to Lin Yuan.
In the eyes of the primordial demonic tree, Lin Yuan was Its only hope. As long as Lin Yuan could grow to the fifth stage, everything It had invested would not be in vain, or at least most of it would be recovered.
"Ancestor, Ancestor, this is too much."
Lin Yuan noticed the origin sent by the primordial demonic tree this time, feeling greatly delighted in his heart, but his tone was somewhat concerned as he asked, "Will losing so much origin at once have any impact?"
"Not much."
The primordial demonic tree said with difficulty.
In fact, the impact was significant. With only half of Its original origin, the primordial demonic tree probably wanted to flee far away at the sight of the Azure Alliance leader wielding the World Sword.
But as long as It could descend into the Azure World, everything would be worth it.
Even if the primordial demonic tree was weakened, as an extraterrestrial evil god, as long as It could enter the world, It could integrate into the world's origin pool through some kind of secret talent.
By then, all the origin of the entire Azure World would be Its feast.
Of course, the use of secret talents would take time, but the primordial demonic tree believed that It would catch numerous Azure World strong beings off guard and would not have time to stop It.
"Then, Ancestor, rest assured, I will complete the Ancestor's task."
Lin Yuan said solemnly.
"As long as I establish the spatial passage, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
The primordial demonic tree still didn't forget to 'paint a pie'.
In the depths of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
Lin Yuan severed contact with the primordial demonic tree.
"It should be very weak now."
Lin Yuan judged silently. The origin power bestowed by the primordial demonic tree just now was almost equivalent to nearly half of what had been bestowed before.
Losing so much origin at once, even Lin Yuan could imagine that the primordial demonic tree's condition was not good.
He could only hope for It to turn the tide.
Outside the Azure World.
In the vast evil god battlefield.
The leader of the Azure Alliance looked down, in a situation where the primordial demonic tree did not intervene.
The evil god battlefield quickly collapsed, mostly reduced to ashes in the end.
"We won."
"We finally won."
"We defeated the extraterrestrial evil gods."
"We protected our homeland world."
Countless Azure World experts were filled with tears, even the leader of the Azure Alliance, their thoughts surging.
Four hundred years.
A war that lasted exactly four hundred years.
Now it finally came to an end.
"Duan Lang, let's go back."
"Let's go home, back to where we used to live."
Next to him, Yan exclaimed joyfully.
"Let's go home."
The leader of the Azure Alliance fell silent for a moment.
"Wait a moment."
"Although the evil god battlefield has been destroyed."
"But that extraterrestrial evil god is still alive."
"I must leave the World Sword here to prevent the resurgence of that evil god."
The leader of the Azure Alliance felt somewhat reluctant.
As the wielder of the World Sword, the leader of the Azure Alliance was too aware of the weapon's power.
Normally, such a weapon should not exist.
Even if it appeared, it had a great impact on the world consciousness of the Azure World.
But the threat of the extraterrestrial evil god to the Azure World was too great.
So the leader of the Azure Alliance became the wielder of the World Sword.
Without the World Sword, the leader of the Azure Alliance would have little resistance against that extraterrestrial evil god.
But with the World Sword, they had fought back and forth with the primordial demonic tree.
"Leave the World Sword here?"
Yan was stunned, looking at the leader of the Azure Alliance.
"Yes."
"The World Sword is the embodiment of the world consciousness. Only by leaving it here can it block all means of that extraterrestrial evil god."
The leader of the Azure Alliance nodded.
"Yan, you go back to the world with the others first. After I have placed the World Sword, I will meet up with you."
The leader of the Azure Alliance said.
"Alright."
Yan nodded.
Then turned and left.
After Yan disappeared.
The leader of the Azure Alliance looked at the World Sword floating in front of him.
"Old friend, we're parting ways now."
"But as long as you notice any changes, you must notify me in time."
Although unable to carry the World Sword with him, after so many years together, the leader of the Azure Alliance had already partially mastered the World Sword.
As long as willing, they could sense the World Sword at any time, even recall it.
Buzz! The World Sword turned into a stream of light, imprinted outside the world.
"I should go back too."
The leader of the Azure Alliance sighed.
Also flying towards the Azure World.
At this moment, on the edge of the Azure World, twelve deputy leaders, four holy beast kings, thirty-three guardians, one hundred and fifty-six elders, and ninety-three demon beast kings stood there.
They were all full of anticipation and excitement, waiting for him.
"Everyone."
The leader of the Azure Alliance suddenly felt excited, "Let's go home together."
With his subordinates, the leader of the Azure Alliance rode the golden avenue and flew towards the depths of the world.
Along the way, countless creatures of the Azure World bowed to them. As legendary figures who saved a world, the leader of the Azure Alliance enjoyed this feeling very much.
Just as they passed through the Black Mist Mountain Range.
A deputy leader suddenly frowned and said to the leader of the Azure Alliance, "Leader, I feel a strange aura below."
"Oh?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance immediately took it seriously.
This deputy leader was a seventh-level expert specializing in reconnaissance. In the past four hundred years of war, if it weren't for him locating the extraterrestrial evil god's position several times, the casualties would have been much heavier.
"The Black Mist Mountain Range."
The leader of the Azure Alliance looked down.
"Let's go."
"Let's see what's down there."
The leader of the Azure Alliance sneered, without any fear.
Even the ancestral demonic tree, the extraterrestrial evil god, had been repelled by him. A strange aura in the world, if it weren't for passing by coincidentally, plus the discovery of this aura by a deputy leader he valued.
The leader of the Azure Alliance probably wouldn't even spare a second glance.
"Alright."
"Let's listen to the leader."
"What nonsense aura, actually dared to leak out when we passed by, damn it."
Many strong individuals echoed.
"Then let's go down together."
The leader of the Azure Alliance nodded, then led his followers towards the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
According to the deputy leader's suggestion, the location of the strange aura was precisely in the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
"Hmm?"
As they approached the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range, the leader of the Azure Alliance's brows furrowed even tighter.
Because he faintly felt that the aura at the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range was somewhat strange, even similar to that of the extraterrestrial evil god.
This was a big deal.
The leader of the Azure Alliance's expression became serious.
The relaxed expression disappeared.
"Everyone, be careful."
The leader of the Azure Alliance instructed his subordinates.
Soon.
The leader of the Azure Alliance, with his subordinates, arrived at the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
It was a valley, with an evil and ancient aura pervading the surroundings.
In the center of the valley stood an ancient tree, with countless black vines hanging down.
"Extraterrestrial evil god?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance was shocked.
Having dealt with the primordial demonic tree for many years, he immediately recognized that the ancient tree in front of him was extremely similar to the primordial demonic tree.
"No."
"It's not the extraterrestrial evil god."
The leader of the Azure Alliance observed carefully.
He knew the primordial demonic tree very well. It was precisely because of this that he confirmed that the ancient tree in front of him was not the ferocious extraterrestrial evil god.
"It's a subsidiary of the extraterrestrial evil god."
"I didn't expect that a mistake a hundred or two hundred years ago would allow you to survive until now?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance immediately breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of killing intent appearing on his face.
More than a hundred years ago, the primordial demonic tree paid a great price to pry open the world barrier of the Azure World and scatter hundreds of thousands of demonic seeds into the world.
The leader of the Azure Alliance was aware of this matter, and even ordered it to be dealt with urgently, trying to eliminate all the demonic seeds.
It's just that they didn't expect that one demonic seed would still survive and grow to this extent.
In an instant, the leader of the Azure Alliance clarified the cause and effect.
"But I even repelled your ancestor, what are you?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance's heart turned cold as he stared at the distant swaying ancient tree.
At this moment, in his eyes, Lin Yuan was already as good as dead. Leading so many strong individuals, plus his own existence as a peak seventh-rank, even if it was the true primordial demonic tree, they could still resist for a while.
As for a subsidiary demonic tree?
"Deputy Leader Fang, it's up to you to take action and personally deal with this remnant of the evil god."
The leader of the Azure Alliance said indifferently.
Deputy Leader Fang was the one who had discovered the strange aura in the Black Mist Mountain Range just now, a seventh-rank expert. Naturally, he was far from being able to contend with the primordial demonic tree.
But just a subsidiary entity of the demonic tree In the eyes of the leader of the Azure Alliance, there should be no problem at all.
"Take action?"
Deputy Leader Fang remained silent for a moment, then looked at Lin Yuan.
Finally, under the incredulous gaze of the leader of the Azure Alliance, Deputy Leader Fang bowed slightly to Lin Yuan and said, "Master, what should we do now?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole scene fell into a bizarre atmosphere.
The leader of the Azure Alliance's pupils contracted sharply.
How could he have imagined that his most trusted subordinate would address a remnant of the evil god as master?
"Fang Zhengqing, how dare you?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance was furious.
At this moment, his thoughts fluctuated rapidly, scenes of what had happened along the way flashed through his mind.
Fang Zhengqing discovered the abnormal aura in the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range, then led them to this place, and now Fang Zhengqing called that remnant of the evil god as master.
In other words.
Fang Zhengqing had led them here with premeditation.
"This is bad."
"Everyone, retreat."
"There's an ambush!!!"
The leader of the Azure Alliance speculated everything, his expression changed drastically, and he was about to make his other subordinates move away from this place.
Just then.
Behind the leader of the Azure Alliance, Yan, his beloved, gently lifted her right hand and pressed it on the back of the leader of the Azure Alliance.
Bang.
The leader of the Azure Alliance's expression changed drastically.
His aura declined visibly to the naked eye.
The leader of the Azure Alliance suddenly turned around to look at Yan, "Yan, you?"
He had never dreamed that his beloved woman would deal such a fatal blow to him.
"Yan, you're not to be trusted either."
"Quickly"
The leader of the Azure Alliance forcibly suppressed his injuries, intending to fly away with the rest of his subordinates.
But the next moment.
Many of the subordinates protected by the leader of the Azure Alliance took a step forward in unison, surrounding the leader of the Azure Alliance, their auras converging and pressing down.
"You too?"
The leader of the Azure Alliance looked at his many subordinates, a brief moment of confusion and shock on his face.
And an extreme sense of unfamiliarity.
