Chapter 428: Chapter 428: Millennium Tree Demon Chapter 428: Chapter 428: Millennium Tree Demon âA millennium tree demon?â
Feng Wuchen and Bei Dou Yanâs faces changed dramatically again.
The trunk, transparent like a gigantic python, moved with terrifying speed.
What kind of monster was this?
âThe millennium tree demon usually only appears on the outskirts of Duanhun Valley and never enters the deeper parts,â Lan Yue said, filled with doubt.
âAh!â
Before Lan Yueâs words had finished, Bei Dou Tianye was suddenly swept away, leaving behind a strange cry, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
Many cultivators from the eastern domains had perished at the hands of the millennium tree demon, and Fan Shaoyun had also been frightened by it into leaving Duanhun Valley.
One must know that the area where Feng Wuchen and the others were had become a small desert; within a radius of sixty to seventy Zhang, it was all flat land.
Where was the millennium tree demon?
âTianye!â Bei Dou Yan was shocked and panicked, as he had not noticed anything.
âToo fast! We canât see it at all!â Bei Dou Yanâs face was extremely grim, his heart filled with worry and panic.
It wasnât just Bei Dou Yan, even the Alchemist Feng Wuchen did not notice anything.
âMaster, think of a way to save them quickly. The millennium tree demon is extremely bloodthirsty. I donât know how many humans it has eaten over the years. If weâre not quick, theyâre doomed!â Lan Yue said in horror, looking very anxious.
The sudden catastrophe left Feng Wuchen completely overwhelmed.
Wounded severely, Feng Wuchen was powerless to rescue anyone, especially since he hadnât seen any trace of the millennium tree demon.
Desperate, Feng Wuchen knew it was impossible to save Miao Qingqing and the others with brute strength.
In that moment, even Feng Wuchen himself panicked.
In the blink of an eye, out of more than a dozen people, only Feng Wuchen, Bei Dou Yan, Lan Yue, and Nangong Zhan remained, the others all swept away by the millennium tree demon.
âBig Brother Feng! Big Brother Feng!â Miao Qingqingâs terrified voice came from the distant mountains.
âQingqing!â Feng Wuchen was extremely worried.
âAlchemist, you stay here to heal! Nangong Zhan and I will go take a look!â Bei Dou Yan said urgently, unable to stay still for a moment.
âHold on!â Feng Wuchen quickly shouted, knowing that the millennium tree demon was extremely terrifying. If Bei Dou Yan and Nangong Zhan went, they might not return either.
âThe millennium tree demon can absorb the True Yuan from human bodies. Going there would be suicide!â Lan Yue said in panic.
Nangong Zhan said in horror, âThen Chi Huang and the others are surely doomed?â
Not knowing the whereabouts of the millennium tree demon, how could they rescue anyone?
âMillennium tree demon! If you dare to harm my friends, I will utterly destroy you! My flames are enough to turn you to ashes!â Feng Wuchen, in a desperate situation, could only make threats, immediately mobilizing the flames of the Dragon Clan.
Green flames danced in the palm of his hand, an extremely violent aura emanating around.
However, Feng Wuchenâs threat was to no avail; the millennium tree demon remained silent.
At that moment, Duanhun Valley became extremely quiet, and the voices of Miao Qingqing and the others all disappeared.
Feng Wuchen and his group were at the peak of tension, fearing that the millennium tree demon would make a move on Miao Qingqing and the others.
âAlchemist, what do we do now?â Seeing no movement, Nangong Zhan asked in panic, having never faced such a terrifying creature before.
Feng Wuchen also had no solution as the millennium tree demon was invisible and its aura undetectable, as though it didnât exist at all.
It was the first time since obtaining the memories and experience from the Evil Dragonâs record that Feng Wuchen had encountered such a helpless situation.
In the Evil Dragonâs memories, there was no recollection of the millennium tree demon at all.
âThump, thump, thump!â
Just as Feng Wuchen and the rest were extremely nervous and at a loss, a series of gigantic muffled sounds came through, and with each thump, the ground trembled.
âWhatâs going on?â Bei Dou Yan looked around cautiously.
âThe millennium tree demon is coming!â Lan Yue trembled all over, her beautiful eyes filled with terror.
âIn all my years in Duanhun Valley, I have never met a human who dared to threaten me; boy, you are the first one!â
An old and slightly hoarse voice suddenly rang out.
Feng Wuchen and his three companionsâ complexions dramatically changed, hearing its voice before seeing the tree itself.
As the tree demonâs words fell, an extremely massive towering tree appeared out of nowhere before their eyes.
The millennia-old tree demon, hundreds of feet tall, turned out to be a terrifying ancient tree capable of invisibility!
The four, including Feng Wuchen, were stunned as they stared with heads raised at the giant ancient tree that had materialized before them.
Considering the tree demonâs size, its trunk could probably extend to every corner of Duanhun Valley!
In front of the tree demon, Feng Wuchen and his companions seemed even smaller than ants.
Beyond that, the revealed tree demon emanated the terrifying aura of the fifth level of the Heavenly Human Realm.
âThis⊠this is the millennia-old tree demon? Itâs so⊠enormous!â Nangong Zhan spoke with trepidation, eyes filled with fear.
âHeavenly Human Realm, fifth level!â Chi Huangâs face turned pale, and he couldnât help but swallow hard.
Feng Wuchen was also shocked by the sheer size of the millennia-old tree demon; he had never seen such an enormous ancient tree before.
âYou humans, such audacity!â The tree demonâs massive body loomed, its huge eyes fixed on Feng Wuchen, its mouth like a vast cave.
At the tree demonâs question, Feng Wuchen instantly snapped to alertness and angrily demanded, âWhere are my friends?â
The figures of Miao Qingqing and the others had completely vanished, and Feng Wuchenâs face twisted viciously as uncontrollable murderous rage erupted from him.
A branch from the millennia-old tree demon condensed into a giant hand and patted its stomach, saying, âTheyâre all in my belly.â
âWhat?â Upon hearing this, Feng Wuchen and companionsâ faces turned dramatically pale.
A terribly frightening rage surged within Feng Wuchen, and his eyes instantly turned blood-red. His body trembled as he unleashed a furious and wild burst of power.
âYou actually ate them!â Feng Wuchen roared with extreme anger, completely losing control.
âBastard! Iâll fight you with everything Iâve got!â Bei Dou Yan shouted furiously, roaring as he recklessly charged towards the tree demon.
âJust with your first level of the Heavenly Human Realm?â The millennia-old tree demon looked disdainful.
âWhoosh!â
âBoom!â
âPff!â
A branch whipped out swiftly, and with a booming sound, Bei Dou Yan spat blood and was sent flying.
Just one strike, and Bei Dou Yan was severely wounded!
âBei Dou Yan!â Nangong Zhan, too, was enraged, glaring fiercely at the tree demon. Despite being less powerful, the furious Nangong Zhan still charged in.
âWater Spirit Barrier!â Lan Yue appeared in front of Feng Wuchen as if prepared to die protecting him.
âBoom!â
âPff!â
A branch harshly struck once more, and Nangong Zhan spat blood, his body hurtling away and heavily injured!
âTo contend against this great tree with such puny strength? Utterly laughable!â The millennia-old tree demon said contemptuously.
Its enormous eyes shifted to Lan Yue and Feng Wuchen, and the tree demon sneered, âJust the two of you left now!â
âBoom!â
âPff!â
As its words fell, another branch viciously lashed out, shattering the Water Spirit Barrier in an instant. Lan Yue spat blood and was thrown out.
âYou brat! You dared to threaten me, I will make sure you wish you were dead!â The millennia-old tree demon sneered coldly.
âRoar!â
In a state of extreme fury, Feng Wuchen threw back his head and let out a long howl that shook the heavens and reverberated through Duanhun Valley!
On the surface of Feng Wuchenâs body, a phantom golden dragon suddenly appeared!
