Chapter 209 - 203: Three Years Later, Advancing to Third Stage Array Master, Ingenious Use of Array Heart Gu_2
At this moment, the land was completely parched, with many fissures appearing.
Various weeds, trees, and other plants had all lost their vitality and were wilting away.
This place seemed to have become a dead land.
It could be said that in just a few days, the power of the Blood Demon Tree had expanded once again, spreading for twenty miles).
Deep into the earth, it seemed like many terrifying blood-red roots were growing, and it was unknown how far they extended.
The entire area was filled with endless blood-colored fog.
It was as if a peerless demon creature was being nurtured deep below the ground, causing people to tremble in fear.
If it weren’t for the fourth-stage grand formation sealing this demon, it would have probably escaped by now.
“Dammit, the growth rate of this demon is too astonishing.”
“If it really regains its full strength, I’m afraid there will be very few who can escape.”
“It seems that Yue Xi must pack up and leave as soon as possible.”
Zhou Sui took a deep breath.
Even though it was just his clone monitoring, he still felt terrified.
This was an invincible enemy.
Although he also wanted to save the human population in this area, he just didn’t have the ability to do so.
Those who achieve can benefit the world, the poor can only fend for themselves.
The same is true in the Cultivation World.
With no power, to preserve oneself is already commendable, rushing to fight the enemy to the death just results in an additional corpse, it holds no meaning, only serving as food for the demons.
He wasn’t a saint who would sacrifice his own life for the sake of all people.
Of course, if there’s a chance of success, it’s worth it. But if not, it’s nothing but a death wish.
At this very moment, deep within the lair of the Blood Shadow Ancestor.
The Blood Demon Tree still quietly remained deep in the earth, but its roots were continuously extending, and it seemed to have infiltrated numerous Spirit Veins deep within the earth, releasing endless Demonic Qi.
With each breath, it could consume a massive volume of energy.
Its initially withered body was now gradually regaining its vitality.
“Damn Immortal Mist Sect, damn baldy.”
“They sealed me for three thousand years, I will avenge this grudge.”
“Just you wait, even if you are dead, I will annihilate all your disciples and descendants.”
A human face suddenly appeared on the trunk of the Blood Demon Tree, with a savage expression, looking like the Blood Shadow Ancestor from three thousand years ago, emanating a terrifying, evil aura, making one shiver in fear.
A series of roars came from deep within the earth, causing all the nearby creatures to shudder in fear and retreat.
However, there were still sealed chains appearing on its body, even after its hard struggle, it was still bound, immobile.
It could only bear this temporarily while accumulating its power.
On the other side, within Xuanbao Tower.
Many Golden Core Masters had gathered, these were all high-ranking elders of Xuanbao Tower.
They were basically in charge of everything on Immortal Mist Island.
“Master, how is it? What did the headquarters say?”
“Yes, the demon is about to escape its seal, this is a big deal.”
“I’ve heard that it’s a Nascent Soul Level demon, we simply cannot resist it on our own.”
Many elders were inquiring, looking at the Master of Xuanbao Tower.
This matter was of grave concern for the future of Xuanbao Tower.
“I have already informed Headquarters about this matter.”
“But the Headquarters said they are powerless to help as the Nascent Soul Ancestor there has other important matters to attend to.”
“They cannot come to Immortal Mist Island for now.”
The Master of Xuanbao Tower said helplessly. Knowing that the demon was about to break its seal, he had contacted the Headquarters, hoping they could send the Nascent Soul Ancestor to exterminate the demon.
However, even the Nascent Soul Ancestors at Xuanbao Tower Headquarters were limited in number.
They had their own matters to tend to, and couldn’t afford to travel to this remote island to exterminate the demon.
And they weren’t sure of being successful either.
If they failed, then years of Cultivation would be wasted.
“What? Doesn’t the headquarters realize the severity of this matter?”
“If this demon breaks free, not only will Immortal Mist Island suffer, but the entire Canglan Sea area will be affected.”
“That’s right, given the speed of the demon’s cultivation, it may not only become a Nascent Soul Level demon, but it could potentially ascend to the God Transformation Level. That would be a disaster for the entire Canglan Sea area.”
The faces of the Golden Core Elders were grim.
They didn’t expect the Headquarters to have such a response.
“There’s nothing we can do, even the Headquarters is having a tough time right now. A Nascent Soul Ancestor isn’t someone we can simply request.”
The Master of Xuanbao Tower was helpless.
He was just a minor Golden Core Master after all, thinking about requesting a Nascent Soul Ancestor was a pipe dream.
He too was helpless in this situation.
“If that’s the case, what should we do?”
A Golden Core Elder asked, filled with worry.
For a moment, all the Elders present were silent.
After all, they were not willing to leave Immortal Mist Island. Even though this island was located in a remote area, it was rich in resources and they could wield their power, acquiring vast resources.
If they were to move to other places, they might not be able to gain as much.
“Let’s wait and see.”
“We’ll try to re-seal the demon.”
“If we can’t do that, then we’ll have to evacuate.”
The Master of Xuanbao Tower spoke solemnly. He had already prepared for the
worst.
