Chapter 225 - 225: Evenly Matched
Facing the dense roots, Lin Sen snorted coldly. His arms turned into the branches of the Kabbalah Tree of Life. Then, he swung them and kept the roots in middle between him and the strange tree.
Crack! Sturdy roots were broken by the branches of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, but the roots of the strange tree were too strong. Such losses did not cause much damage to the roots.
Lin Sen frowned. If this dragged on, it would be very disadvantageous to him. After all, the crown of the strange tree covered the sky. Once he was enveloped by the huge crown, he would also encounter a crisis.
Lin Sen was unwilling to give up. He exerted strength in his arms, wanting to continue pushing the strange tree and keep a certain distance away.
However, this time, the roots were not so fragile. After Lin Sen exerted strength in his arms, they began to squirm crazily, as if they wanted to pierce into his flesh.
Lin Sen snorted coldly. The energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life in his body suddenly erupted and instantly enveloped his entire arm. The squirming roots could not get close at all. Moreover, the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life was still corroding those roots, causing them to gradually wither.
When the strange tree saw that Lin Sen’s arms were already wrapped in the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, it also learned how terrifying he was.
The strange tree did not choose to engage with Lin Sen. It opened its mouth and spat out a pitch-black ball which flew towards Lin Sen under its control.
Seeing this, Lin Sen immediately pressed his palms together. He leaned forward and a terrifying force instantly gathered. Then, he slapped out. His huge palm instantly enlarged countless times to look like a small hill and struck fiercely at the black ball that was flying over.
The black ball instantly shattered into pieces. The fragments emitted a black light and shot into Lin Sen’s body like bullets.
These black lights did not cause any harm to him. He sneered. A powerful life force surged out of his body. Then, this life force quickly flowed into his body, and the fragments disappeared under its effect.
Roar! Seeing that its secret technique had no effect on Lin Sen, the strange tree roared angrily and spat out countless roots again. This time, the target was still Lin Sen!
“Scram!” Lin Sen shouted coldly. He stepped on the ground with his left foot and his entire body rose from the ground. His right arm flickered with a dazzling silver light as he threw a punch.
Bang! The roots spat out by the strange tree were directly broken by the punch.
Lin Sen flipped twice in the air and landed on the other side of the strange tree. There were a few scratches on his body and a few holes on his clothes. Blood slowly seeped out.
However, Lin Sen did not notice them at all. He looked at the strange tree coldly and said in a low voice, “Although you’re powerful, you can’t hurt my main body at all. I want to see what other abilities you have! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he threw another punch. This time, all the muscles in his body bulged, and his strength condensed to the peak. His fist seemed to have transformed into a rock giant’s attack. The strange tree also responded. It stretched out its thick roots and collided fiercely with Lin Sen’s fist.
Bang!
Lin Sen felt a huge force coming at him. He could not help but take a few steps back, but the strange tree only swayed slightly.
He was incomparably shocked. He could clearly feel that the power emitted by the giant tree was extremely strong, far exceeding his estimates. The strength of this strange giant tree was definitely not inferior to any Sanctuary-grade creature. It was probably more terrifying than the Blood God back then.
Lin Sen did not understand why this thing that could compete with his Kabbalah Tree of Life in terms of quality had stayed in this dimensional space for so long without being known.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t this thing want to wipe out all humans?
He could not figure out what was going on, but the current situation did not allow him to think too much. A terrifying scarlet aura suddenly appeared around the strange tree in front of him, and a frightening killing intent attacked him!
Lin Sen was not afraid at all. He still maintained his calm appearance. He raised his arms again. This time, the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life completely erupted. It was no longer as soft as before. Instead, it was filled with invasiveness. It burned on the surface of Lin Sen’s fist like flames, scalding the scarlet killing intent that was coming at him.
The strange tree also sensed the terrifying power contained in Lin Sen’s arms. The green leaves on its trunk kept trembling. In the end, countless leaves left the trunk and floated above the head of the strange tree. These leaves swept towards Lin Sen under its urging.
Lin Sen stomped his feet and his legs shot forward like cannonballs. The leaves fell from the sky and covered the earth. He swept all the way. Those leaves could not withstand his attack at all and were destroyed.
The strange tree was furious when it saw this scene. Its trunk kept trembling. In the end, countless scarlet roots extended from its body and grabbed at Lin Sen like tentacles.
Lin Sen punched at the roots, but they did not stop and continued to attack. His expression darkened. He punched out again. The dense green light of the Kabbalah Tree of Life collided with the strange red killing intent. A shocking fluctuation spread out with them as the center. The surrounding trees collapsed one after another, revealing the ghastly bones buried deep in the soil.
Lin Sen was impacted by the fluctuation and paused for a moment. Then, he was tied up by the strange tree vines.
“Ah…” Lin Sen roared angrily. The veins on his arms bulged. He suddenly exerted strength in his arms, and the strange tree vines immediately cracked inch by inch before exploding.
The strange tree cried out in pain. Its eyes turned even redder. On the crown of the tree, its branches swayed. Then, countless roots spread down from the crown and stabbed at Lin Sen.
Lin Sen sneered. He leaped up and quickly dodged the roots. The moment he did, countless roots danced together, trapping him in place.
Lin Sen saw an opportunity. He suddenly lowered his head and tore off the vines binding his body. Then, he threw a punch that landed on the trunk of the strange tree.
Crack! A crack appeared.
Lin Sen struck while the iron was hot and punched the trunk of the strange tree repeatedly.
A violent explosion sounded, and large cracks were seen. However, the strange tree only took a few steps back after receiving Lin Sen’s heavy punch. A strange red light appeared on its body again, and the cracks quickly healed..
