Zhang Huaidan remained calm and composed; the mental storm triggered by the divine tree was indeed terrifying to the extreme.

That violent and immense spiritual power was something he couldn't even begin to match, even now.

but.

Because it is so vast, it is also so complex.

Because of its rage, it is scattered.

There was no way to pose a significant threat to him.

The path of cultivating both body and spirit is one that only the most gifted can take.

Once you achieve something, neither your body nor your soul will have any weaknesses.

Moreover, his status was already different from that of ordinary people.

Previously at White Bone Ridge, without the support of his primordial energy, he was still able to remain calm and composed despite facing ten times the erosion of Yin energy.

This is partly due to the pure Yang Dharma Body, but also because his status cannot be ignored.

Even without a physical body or primordial energy, as a quasi-true person who is both internal and external, it would be laughable to try to overwhelm or distort him on a spiritual level!

With a calm and composed demeanor, the Valkyrie Guna behind him suddenly let out a scream!
"He is not human; he is equal to the divine tree!"

All of Nathan's guards were trembling violently!

At this moment, many things are clear!
King Nathan could no longer remain calm. A sense of panic spread through his limbs and bones. The heart beating in his chest felt not like it was in his chest, but rather like it was suspended in an abyss, not knowing when it would fall!
Zhang Huaidan is equal to the Divine Tree!

What does this mean!
This means that Zhang Huaidan is another deity!
In an instant, King Nathan realized why the divine tree had revived and why it demanded offerings.

In an instant, King Nathan was terrified. How could mortals interfere with the battle between gods?
Will the Divine Tree fail?
What would be the result of failure?
Nathan's gaze wandered, and Li Muxuan's face came into view.

I immediately understood why my grandfather, on a biological level, was so anxious.

He did not want Nathan Island to have any further conflicts with Zhang Huaidan.

But now that things have come to this, there's no turning back!
This battle of the gods will surely end in the victory of the divine tree!

My thoughts came to an abrupt halt, and a gasp echoed in my ears.

"It's stopped! Zhang Huaidan has stopped!"

"The divine tree is invincible! Even if it is a god!"

Looking at the figure who had stopped and stood with his hands behind his back, King Nathan smiled.

……

Zhang Chulan was astonished: "What's going on? Why didn't Brother Dan just go all the way and destroy this evil divine tree!"

Barron's gaze darted around: "Perhaps..."

The words have not yet fallen.

‘Boom! ’

The ground is cracking!
Perhaps knowing that the mental storm couldn't suppress Zhang Huaidan, the Divine Tree finally took further action!

The ground around the sacred tree collapsed, exposing the tree roots hidden underground to everyone.

"This seemingly withered tree is not the true form of the divine tree, wait!"

Zhang Chulan exclaimed, "What are those things?"

He was horrified, and his face turned pale.

'Gulp~'

Barron swallowed hard, cold sweat dripping uncontrollably down his forehead.

Li Muxuan felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but take several steps back: "An evil thing! An evil thing!"

Feng Baobao blinked her eyes, full of curiosity.

The ground had collapsed, exposing the tree roots beneath, each one stronger than the withered tree on the outside.

The tree roots crisscrossed, with one nodule after another hanging from them. Upon closer inspection, they were not nodule at all, but clearly people!
It seems to still retain the instinct for life, trembling from time to time.

At the center of the tree roots is a huge heart, composed of countless woody people embracing each other, from which a faint heartbeat can be heard.

This was a scene straight out of a nightmare. Zhang Chulan was sweating profusely and trembling with fear.

Baron's heart pounded: "Besdia, Joaquin! When were they absorbed?!"

Hanging from a relatively thin tree root are two figures, not too lignified, vaguely resembling the corpses of Joaquina of Besdia.

Zhang Chulan was horrified.

Suddenly I understood what King Nathan meant when he said that all kings and guards would eventually return to the tree.

These tree roots are likely to contain artifacts dating back thousands of years!

Zhang Chulan clutched his chest and chuckled, "Why don't we tell Brother Dan to run? Damaging antiques will land you in jail!"

No one could laugh. Suddenly, all the tree roots seemed to shake, and afterimages appeared before their eyes.

An indescribable feeling of suffocation quickly accumulated in my chest, as if a clump of dirty cotton had appeared in my flesh.

Intense spiritual pollution easily tears through the soul's defenses.

Barron clutched his head and screamed in agony.

Zhang Chulan groaned, closed his eyes, but still felt wave after wave of impact, causing him to foam at the mouth and collapse to the ground.

Li Muxuan sat cross-legged, intending to resist, but as soon as he got into position, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and fell backward.

Feng Baobao instinctively covered her eyes and plugged her ears, squatted on the ground, and remained motionless.

In contrast, King Nathan and his companions were completely unaffected, and even sang and danced, performing an unknown dance as the tree roots swayed.

……

Zhang Huaidan also felt slightly stifled, as if her spirit was being polluted: 'If the hard approach doesn't work, how about the soft one?'

Standing with his hands behind his back, overlooking the divine tree, his calm expression remained unchanged.

It must be admitted that the spiritual energy of this divine tree is extremely powerful, even he, who cultivates both body and mind, cannot compare with it.

However, the purity of this power is far too crude.

The method of using this power was far too crude.

The mental storm just now, like a straight river, might be overwhelming for ordinary people, but it couldn't suppress his state of mind.

The mental pollution at this moment is like a straight river with layers of waves. The impact is indeed much stronger, but so what?
Zhang Huaidan calmed down a little, and the slight feeling of unease disappeared without a trace.

However, for him, it's a matter of course.

For others, it would be like hell.

King Nathan and Nathan Guard have been completely lost in the spiritual pollution, dancing an ugly and bizarre dance, like the totems in the sacrificial tribes of ancient ancestors.

Zhang Chulan and the others were even more overwhelmed, and even Li Muxuan, who had risen to the top, was struggling to hold on.

After all, it had never transcended the mortal realm, but the essence of the divine tree was the same as Zhang Huaidan's, and its status alone was enough to suppress everything.

Zhang Huaidan flicked his finger backward, and a golden light landed, turning into a circle that enveloped Zhang Chulan and the others.

In an instant.

The overwhelming mental pressure has largely dissipated.

Li Muxuan was the first to break free, panting heavily, his eyes still filled with lingering shock. Zhang Chulan felt as if he had been pulled out of the water, barely managing to get up from the ground, still shaken.

Barron braced himself on the ground with both hands, sweat pouring down his face like raindrops.

On the contrary, Feng Baobao removed the hands covering her eyes and ears, stood up from the ground, and acted as if nothing had happened.

"Are you all... alright?" Zhang Chulan was out of breath; in such a short time, he was more exhausted than if he had fought a battle for three days and three nights.

Indeed, the mental pressure one experiences is no less than the physical exhaustion one suffers.

Baron was still panting and had no strength to reply.

Li Muxuan looked at Feng Baobao with considerable surprise and suspicion.

Zhang Chulan said calmly, "Senior Li, you've lived on Nathan Island for so long, what kind of evil thing is this divine tree?!"

Li Muxuan withdrew his gaze, but the dancing King Nasen and Nasen Guards came into view, and a chill ran through him.

"This is my first time here too."

Seeing that he had shifted his attention, Zhang Chulan felt slightly relieved. He looked around and saw that the golden circle on the ground seemed to be real, covering the four of them.

The light emanating from the gold ring flickered.

He is intercepting the spiritual pollution brought by the divine tree in a way he cannot understand.

His heart pounded with the interplay of light and shadow, fearing it might suddenly crumble. He didn't want to experience that feeling of spiritual corruption a second time.

Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness for Brother Dan, otherwise we would have been in real trouble."

As he spoke, a bitter smile appeared on his face: "When gods fight, mortals suffer. Brother Dan and his opponents are not ordinary monsters."

Li Muxuan's feelings were complicated. Just as Zhang Chulan said, even he couldn't withstand the spiritual corruption of the Divine Tree for long.

I couldn't help but stare at the figure standing with his hands behind his back in front of me.

Although we can't see his face, we can still imagine the calm expression on it.

Does this spiritual pollution have no effect on Master Huaidan?
Li Muxuan smiled bleakly. He had thought that after spending decades on Nathan Island, he had already become one of the top superhumans, with no way forward and no way to advance.

Only now do I realize how narrow-minded I was, like a frog in a well, making me a laughingstock.

Li Muxuan was filled with mixed emotions.

Seeing that he didn't speak and that Baron hadn't completely broken free, Zhang Chulan also shut his mouth. His gaze passed over the back of the man standing with his hands behind his back, and a nightmarish scene fell into his eyes. Goosebumps immediately rose on the back of Zhang Chulan's neck.

The human figures hanging from the tree roots, each with varying degrees of lignification, emanated a continuous stream of mental pollution as the roots swayed.

Zhang Chulan only glanced at it twice, but even under the protection of the golden circle, he felt a strong discomfort in his chest again, and almost vomited blood.

I quickly looked away, closed my eyes, and felt incredibly anxious.

Although we don't know exactly what this divine tree is, its power is undeniable.

Information I'd seen everywhere flashed through my mind: the sacred tree on Nathan Island had existed for thousands of years!
……

The divine tree shook more and more violently, as if it had been provoked, and spiritual pollution, like waves, was rising higher and higher.

Even within the protection of the golden circle, Zhang Chulan and the others could not look directly at the divine tree itself.

King Nathan and Nathan Guard danced even more wildly, their bones clashing violently with a teeth-grinding sound.

Zhang Chulan clenched his fists involuntarily.

Li Muxuan's heart also jumped.

Even though Zhang Huaidan has reached an incredible realm, he is still young, while the sacred tree of Nathan Island has witnessed more than a thousand years of history.

Say something unpleasant.

Over such a long period of time, even a pig could turn into a pig demon. I'm afraid Zhang Huaidan is no match for this evil creature!

As he pondered, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and Zhang Huaidan's composed demeanor, with his hands behind his back, instantly transformed into a hesitant and struggling stance.

Zhang Chulan, standing beside him, asked in a trembling voice, "Why didn't Brother Dan take the initiative? Is it because he couldn't find a starting point?"

He was right after all!

It wasn't that Zhang Huaidan stood still and let the divine tree launch its attack.

The divine tree was simply too enormous, with its roots twisting and intertwining underground. Cutting off one or two roots wouldn't affect the overall situation at all.

Zhang Huaidan wasn't stupid enough to jump down and fight this thing hand-to-hand.

His gaze, sharp as a divine sword, swept over the divine tree, but his brows gradually furrowed.

He had been observing the divine tree ever since it revealed its true form, but so far he hadn't gained much.

That heart-like object, composed of hundreds or thousands of wooden figures, seems to be the fatal weakness of the divine tree itself.

But is it really a weakness to openly expose one's fatal flaws?
Or is it a trap?

He withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, and opened them again. Deep within his pupils, two faint, clear golden flames could be seen.

At this moment, he has mastered supernatural powers and is determined to find the fatal flaw in the divine tree's true form!

The divine tree seemed to sense the danger as well, and the trembling of its countless roots intensified, causing the ground to undulate.

The mental pollution escalated dramatically. Even with the golden circle protecting them, Zhang Chulan and the others were horrified and unable to pay attention to the battle, focusing all their efforts on resisting the remaining forces.

Zhang Huaidan remained expressionless, his sharp eyes fixed on the divine tree.

In an instant, a series of points of light appeared one after another.

'how so? ’

Each point of light is a weakness of the divine tree, and the countless human figures hanging from its roots are the source of these points of light.

Hundreds or thousands of points of light mean hundreds or thousands of weaknesses. So, can they still be considered weaknesses?

Zhang Huaidan's eyes were wide open, golden flames burning fiercely in his pupils, pushing his Fiery Eyes to their limit!
With his inner energy surging, the spiritual pollution from the divine tree, that immense spiritual energy, could not even get close to him.

As the golden flames dissipated, Zhang Huaidan's expression darkened slightly.

Even if you push your eagle eyes to their limit, the result remains unchanged.

Perhaps this is the truth; the Divine Tree itself has no weaknesses, or perhaps its Fiery Eyes of Truth is not adept at observing weaknesses.

With discerning eyes, the Lord illuminates reality and illusion, and subdues all illusions.

Using it to find so-called weaknesses is probably not a good fit for their expertise.

Zhang Huaidan pondered for a moment. Did he have to destroy all the tree people that this divine tree had absorbed over the past thousands of years in order to eliminate it?
He shook his head; this was indeed extremely difficult.

Zhang Huaidan has never encountered such a strange opponent since his debut.

In comparison, even the corpse demon Jiang Fan was at least a human in disguise.

This sacred tree is neither human nor even animal.

The countless tree roots underground silently testify to its powerful vitality.

In a flash, he made a decision: "If that's the case, then let's take the people off the sacred tree one by one!"

With a flick of his finger, a point of golden light shone directly onto the human figure on the nearest tree root. If I'm not mistaken, the human figure appears to be Besdia.

A golden light, the size of a bean, shone down upon Besdia as the tree roots trembled.

Suddenly, I opened my eyes!

The golden light was shattered by an invisible force. Zhang Huaidan was startled, and in his eyes remained a burning resentment and unwillingness to die! (End of Chapter)
