Chapter 646: Chapter 666: Hold Me! _1

Countless tree branches, like spears, pierced towards Chen Bingquan, each glowing with a dazzling green light, like flying swords, their momentum astounding.

Chen Bingquan’s flying sword rapidly slashed, weaved and soared. Although it had amazing power, and could break numerous branches and root whiskers with a single strike, there were simply too many branches and root whiskers.

They filled the entire sky, resembling countless writhing spirit snakes, swarming at Chen Bingquan from all directions and in a full 360-degree angle.

The flying sword was unable to sever so many tentacle-like branches and root whiskers. Thankfully, the Spirit Qi Shield managed to block all the attacks. This both frightened and relieved Chen Bingquan.

This Tree Demon was not very powerful and posed no significant threat!

As long as he could find its main body and destroy it directly, this Tree Demon would be finished for good!

Just as Chen Bingquan thought this and prepared to break through, a sharp branch with green light, akin to a spear, sneaked close to the Spirit Qi Shield among all the branches. It cleanly and decisively pierced through the Spirit Qi Shield and stabbed into Chen Bingquan’s heart.

Chen Bingquan screamed miserably, urging his flying sword to kill the branch. However, countless branches and root whiskers tightly entangled his flying sword. At the same time, more branches and root whiskers rapidly climbed onto Chen Bingquan’s body and penetrated it, crawling into his every orifice.

A considerable amount of blood and essence was instantly absorbed by these branches and root whiskers. Chen Bingquan’s body suddenly collapsed, turning into a skin-covered skull.

Chen Bingquan’s Nascent Soul frantically fled from his body. It was a miniature version of Chen Bingquan without a real entity, looking very fragile and seemingly vulnerable to disperse at any moment.

"Trying to escape? No way! Just obediently become my nourishment!"

As Chen Bingquan’s Nascent Soul passed by the huge tree trunk in panic, a woman’s face suddenly appeared on the tree trunk. The woman opened her mouth and inhaled, sucking Chen Bingquan’s Nascent Soul into the gigantic mouth on the tree face, only managing a half-scream before it was abruptly cut off.

Lin Chen and the others had just started using their Sword Control Technique to ascend to the sky when countless spear-like branches and snake-like root whiskers rushed towards them.

Su Mubai waved her hand and conjured an Ancient Bell. She slapped the bell, and golden radiance immediately appeared on it.

"Clang!"

The Ancient Bell let out a dull sound, and the golden radiance surged, spreading out more than ten meters. Wherever the golden radiance reached, the branches and root whiskers withered and fell as if they had lost their vitality in an instant.

"Go!"

Su Mubai shouted softly, and everyone followed her as they charged upwards.

The branches and root whiskers madly attacked, and the golden radiance gradually diminished. When the golden radiance was on the verge of extinction, Su Mubai slapped the bell again, and the golden radiance returned in full force, instantly killing all the branches and root whiskers that had rushed in.

A man in a panic pulled out a Distress Talisman and hastily threw it away. The talisman instantly turned into a streak of light that shot up into the sky. However, halfway through, a lush, dripping green branch lashed out, and the light transformed by the Distress Talisman instantly shattered.

The Distress Talisman was destroyed!

Su Mubai shouted loudly, "First break through, then release the Distress Talisman... Lin Chen, follow me!"

Lin Chen remained silent and immediately stayed close behind Su Mubai. Murong Feng, who was beside them, subconsciously glanced over with a complex and unexpected gaze.

He obviously didn’t understand why Su Mubai would single out Lin Chen to give instructions, but now was clearly not the time to ask questions.

Su Mubai led the others to rapidly soar upwards, continuously slapping the Ancient Bell. The golden radiance constantly shattered the Tree Demon’s attacks, but with each slap, Su Mubai’s complexion became paler and paler. Apparently, using the Ancient Bell consumed a vast amount of spiritual energy. Controlling it with Su Mubai’s strength was quite strenuous, and continuous use gradually reached her limits.

About halfway through the ascent, the radiance of the Ancient Bell in Su Mubai’s hand had weakened considerably.

A man who was following closely behind fell a step behind and was immediately exposed outside the golden radiance. In an instant, his body was pierced by countless branches and turned into a shriveled corpse.

Su Mubai slapped the Ancient Bell once again. Although the radiance surged, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, her injuries no longer trivial.

Seeing this, Murong Feng took out a Sword Gourd and slapped it. Countless flying swords flew out of the gourd’s mouth, forming a rapidly flowing river of swords that charged towards the sky. Wherever it went, branches and root whiskers were shattered by the endless Sword Qi.

He turned his head and shouted, "Sister Su, follow me!"

Murong Feng’s Sword Gourd was extremely powerful but was suitable for offense rather than defense against such a frenzied 360-degree attack.

The only method was to follow the flying swords closely, allowing the swords to clear the path and seize a chance at survival.

Su Mubai naturally understood this point. She approached Lin Chen and whispered, "Hold on to me!"
