Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God

King Nathan's voice echoed in the silent hall, and the Nathan Guards seemed to awaken from a dream.

"That's right, the Divine Tree can't be destroyed so easily!"

"You despicable outsider, you can't kill the sacred tree!"

"The sacred tree is still alive!"

Nathan Island exists because of the sacred tree, and so do the King and the Guard.

Making them accept the destruction of the sacred tree is not much different from wiping them out of the world.

Zhang Huaidan stopped and stared at Wang Yuwei, howling like a pack of lost wild dogs.

Zhang Chulan and the others, who were not far away, had subtle expressions. Li Muxuan suppressed the shock in his heart and walked over.

"Shut up, all of you! The divine tree has vanished!"

Looking at Zhang Huaidan pleadingly, she said, "Master Huaidan, she is just a deceived child. Such an evil being is not something that ordinary people can contend with."

After all, they were related by blood, and Li Muxuan pleaded for Nasen Wang.

Zhang Huaidan remained noncommittal, when Nathan King's scream rang out behind him: "You're the monster! Why did you help him? You traitor!"

Li Muxuan was both shocked and furious. Did he think that Master Huaidan dared not kill anyone?
Before he could speak, King Nathan's voice was like that of a vicious wolf: "You outsiders have occupied this planet, and the Kingdom of God now exists only on one island. Even so, it cannot stop your greed! You have wantonly destroyed the last hope of our civilization. You despicable, cruel, and vicious..."

Li Muxuan roared in fury, "Are you insane!"

King Nathan sneered, "The divine tree has not been destroyed yet!"

Li Muxuan was startled. He saw a tree root shoot out of Nathan King's mouth at lightning speed, so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

A sharp pain shot through my chest, a tightness gripped my head, and I collapsed to the ground. Instinctively, I touched my forehead and was immediately horrified.

"I am your maternal grandfather!"

King Nathan merely sneered, the tree roots continuing their downward momentum until Zhang Huaidan casually swept them aside. King Nathan's expression changed slightly, and he gracefully retreated.

The distraught Nasen guards, sensing the aura of the divine tree emanating from King Nasen, immediately found their anchor and steadfastly protected her.

Zhang Huaidan revealed a look of understanding; it turned out the core issue lay with King Nathan.

"Senior Li!"

"Master Huai Dan!"

The change happened so fast that Zhang Chulan and the others didn't have time to react. After Nasen King retreated, they hurriedly gathered behind Zhang Huaidan.

"Ah!"

Li Muxuan let out a chilling scream, the once-powerful and influential figure now reduced to a white pig being hooked out of its pen by an iron hook.

Zhang Chulan felt a chill in his heart. Looking down, he saw that Li Muxuan was wearing a white headband that appeared both real and unreal.

The headband emitted waves of invisible energy; just looking at it distorted one's vision, and even one's thoughts were drawn in, misinterpreted, and melted away.

Zhang Chulan quickly closed his eyes, and his vision became clearer.

However, his mind was still affected, like a maggot clinging to his bone, and in a short time, he was already covered in sweat.

Baron's voice was filled with horror: "Master Huaidan, what is this?!"

Zhang Huaidan said, "Although the divine powers are not yet fully developed, not everyone can resist them."

Li Muxuan's screams grew increasingly shrill as a strange force surged into his mind, affecting not his body and soul, but his self-awareness.

The divine tree possesses spiritual energy vast enough to overwhelm mortals and can forcibly convert people into believers of the divine tree.

But there may be opportunities to break free from such imposed beliefs.

This headband, however, is different. It can fundamentally dismantle and reshape a person, falling into the category of supernatural powers.

When Nathan was born, he was designated as Nathan King.

Li Muxuan had seen this fleeting thing before, and the feeling of unease he experienced is something he can never forget to this day.

That's why, seeing Zhang Huaidan's similar methods, he immediately agreed to return to Xia Kingdom to see Lu Jin.

The consequences of this supernatural power are far more serious than death!

However, man proposes, God disposes, and in the end, it all fell on his own head.

In truth, he wasn't entirely aware of how terrifying this thing was; he only knew that if he didn't fight to the death, the name Li Muxuan would be gone forever.

He fought back with all his might, but how could mortal will possibly contend with supernatural powers? His screams gradually subsided.

Li Muxuan felt waves of despair. He had no will left to feel despair, but at this moment, he seemed to break free of some kind of framework and see himself rapidly falling into the deep sea called despair.

Thoughts are stripped away, distorted, and rewritten.

The so-called free will of man has always been just a catchy slogan.

Just as there is no essential difference between humans and animals, except for the way their atoms are composed.

At this time.

A voice drifted into my ears.

"Hold on."

Li Muxuan's pupils dilated sharply; a glimmer of light seemed to have appeared in the deep sea.

Suddenly, he clenched his teeth, squeezing out every last bit of power called willpower.

……

Zhang Huaidan activated his primordial energy, opened his palm, and a thunder dragon flew out.

The Yang Five Thunders, driven by the realm and power of a Quasi-True Person, are no longer simply thunders of the five internal organs; they contain the powerful energy of heaven and earth.

Its power is unpredictable.

The dragon's roar resounded in his mind, and Zhang Chulan, who had closed his eyes, immediately broke free from the lingering influence. Li Muxuan's struggling expression also eased.

Zhang Chulan's eyes widened, his hand on his chest, and he murmured to himself, "Brother Dan's lightning magic is so vast, King Nasen is already at his limit, he must be..."

The thunder dragon lunged at them, and all the Nasen Guards turned pale.

King Nathan's gaze sharpened, and an invisible wave swept forward, trapping the thunder dragon as if it were trapped, unable to advance or retreat.

"how come!"

Zhang Chulan let out a low gasp!

The divine tree was destroyed by this thunder dragon's attack!

Zhang Huaidan remained expressionless. His vital energy circulated, and a dark golden hand instantly materialized, descending with the force of Mount Tai pressing down!
Zhang Chulan and Baron were both trembling like leaves, even though the giant hand wasn't aimed at them, they still felt an overwhelming sense of power.

It makes one's bones feel weak and muscles feel limp.

Even the strongest will can crumble, because this is no longer a difference in cultivation, but a gap in status!

The methods of a near-perfected being are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!
'Plop~ Plop~'

The six guards felt it even more acutely; their bodies reacted before they could even think, collapsing to the ground in unison.

That dark golden hand seemed to cause the heavens to collapse, even though its target wasn't them.

"Wow!"

King Nathan let out a shriek!
The invisible spiritual energy, condensed to its extreme, took shape, forming several spiraling spiritual energy drills that met the dark golden hand.

'Impossible, she couldn't possibly stop her!'

Zhang Chulan cried out in his heart, "The power of this giant hand is like the wrath of the heavens!"
The divine tree has been destroyed. At most, King Nathan may have retained some of its power, but it's impossible...

Zhang Chulan gasped: "It's blocked!"

Like a tangible drill of spiritual energy, it withstood the blow from the dark gold hand.

A violent surge of power swept in all directions, and apart from the area behind the two, the walls of the Divine Tree Hall were covered with crisscrossing cracks.

Zhang Chulan stared in disbelief. Baron felt a chill run down his spine, and with a quick, discreet glance, he noticed that Zhang Huaidan's brows were also slightly furrowed.

Even Master Huaidan is finding this situation troublesome?

Thinking of this, my scalp tingled and tingled!
Zhang Huaidan frowned slightly, but her mind cleared up.

He did not actually kill the divine tree just now; the core of the divine tree has always existed within King Nathan.

The divine tree itself, composed of numerous woody tree-people and countless tree roots, and its true core, are analogous to the difference between a person piloting a mech and the mech itself.

Now that the mech has been destroyed, this 'person' is even more difficult to deal with!
In fact, what King Nathan displayed was only the power of the core of the divine tree, far less than the breadth of the divine tree's main body.

However, Queen Nathan was a wise woman; she knew how to use this power wisely, rather than using it crudely like the mindless Tree of God.

Thus, not only was the Thunder Dragon blocked, but the dark gold giant hand was also unable to suppress it for a while.

Zhang Huaidan's brows relaxed, and his primordial energy surged.

The dark gold hand surged with power, fiercely suppressing the mental energy drill that King Nathan had condensed.

A sharp sonic wave, inaudible to the human ear, reverberated, causing the six guards behind King Nathan to experience excruciating pain in their skulls, with blood flowing from both ears.

The walls of the Divine Tree Hall cracked more and more, no longer pure white, and soil and stones rolled down from the dome.

The shockwaves shook the earth and spread far and wide, centered on Nathan Palace.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Chulan and Baron, who were swaying unsteadily, turned green instantly. "No way, no way, does it have to be this exaggerated!"
King Nathan felt immense pressure, his face turning bluish-purple, and his expression turned crazed: "Why are you forcing me like this? What have the people of God done wrong? What has the divine tree done wrong!"

Zhang Chulan's lips twitched violently. What was going on? But there was clearly no chance for him to interrupt right now, King Nathan roared!

"Children of God, give us all your strength!"

'Pfft pfft~~'

Like a burst water pipe, hundreds of tree roots sprouted from King Nathan's skin, dancing and twisting, sometimes advancing and sometimes retreating, sometimes forward and sometimes backward. Each root exuded a strange spiritual power, making it impossible to look away.

Zhang Chulan felt his rationality rapidly waning, and he tightly closed his eyes.

It still felt like an electric current was passing through my cerebral cortex, and goosebumps rose all over my body. I felt like my underwear had been stretched out a size.

Baron was stunned, staring unblinkingly at the tentacle-like tree roots on King Nathan's body.

Suddenly they plunged into the ground, leaving only six, and stabbed at the Nathan Six Guards behind them.

Each of the six guards showed an expression of repentance, allowing the tree roots to pierce their hearts, their piety remaining unchanged.

No, there are still people who want to fight.

Elijah's hair stood on end, and he took off running.

However, the white headband appeared out of nowhere, and in the blink of an eye, he prostrated himself on the ground, more devout than the other five guards.

The tree root pierced his heart.

This time he wasn't so lucky.

The tree roots, like IV tubing, readily accepted all the faith and power contributed by the six people. However, at this moment, their faith and power were of little use and could not help King Nathan change the situation.

As a result, the bodies of the six people visibly withered away, their vital energy, their flesh and blood, and their lives were all taken away!

Such a cruel and horrific scene made Barron's teeth chatter!

Nathan was in charge of Nathan Island's diplomatic affairs, and he was quite familiar with several of the people in his office, knowing that they were all capable.

After all, they are the ones chosen by the divine tree.

Their talent is by no means inferior.

But at this moment, these people showed no intention of resisting King Nathan's attempt to seize their possession.

"Return to the Divine Tree! Dedicate everything to the Divine Tree!"

Six mummified corpses lay on the ground, and bloodlust gleamed in King Nathan's eyes as all the power within them surged wildly through his body.

The mental energy drill was also stained with a trace of blood.

They pushed up the slowly descending dark gold hand.

King Nathan, his hair disheveled, bloodshot eyes blazing, appeared completely deranged: "This is the kingdom of the Divine Tree! No one can destroy the Divine Tree! Believers! Let me see your faith!"

The ground shook, and the tree roots underground seemed to come back to life.

……

Tom and Jerry were offering their faith and wishes to the sacred tree, but before long, they suddenly felt empty inside, as if they had lost something important.

The group stood there bewildered for a long time when suddenly tree roots emerged from the soil, swaying like venomous snakes, appearing both terrifying and mysterious.

No one present ran away; a voice calling out from the depths of their minds, like a mother calling out to her wandering child.

Everyone prostrated themselves on the ground, letting the tree roots pierce their hearts and draw out their vital energy, flesh and blood, and life.

"Returning to the sacred tree is our greatest honor!"

They left behind a pile of mummified corpses, but those withered faces were still filled with happiness.

Normally only King Nathan and Nathan Guard can return to the Divine Tree, but now that the Divine Tree has accepted them, isn't that a blessing?
……

"Help!"

"I don't want to die!"

Go back to your mother's sacred tree!

Of course, there were also some less devout citizens who, in the face of a life-or-death crisis, erupted in strong resistance.

But it doesn't matter, their voices will soon disappear.

……

"What is this?"

"Tree roots, the roots of the divine tree! The divine tree is eating people! Fuck!"

"Retreat! Open fire! Grenades provide cover!"

"Cover the rear!"

Behemoth's fighting group fought and retreated until they boarded the small boats prepared on the beach, where they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

……

'Boom! '

Inside the data center, Ron slammed his fist hard onto the control panel.

"What on earth happened? How could it have turned out like this!"

"Our people were on the outermost edge of the island and retreated in time, without causing any damage."

Even after Gade finished speaking, he was still terrified.

Under the real-time monitoring of various instruments, countless tree roots on Nathan Island broke through the ground and devoured all living things, not even sparing the island's wild beasts.

At this moment, birds soared in the sky above the island, their cries blending into a symphony of disaster, making the island itself resemble a living hell.

Every single devout islander living near Nathan's Palace was drained of their life force and turned into a dried-up corpse.

The tree roots that sprout out ten miles away from the palace are not so dangerous, but if they linger, they will be captured and devoured.

Large numbers of islanders screamed and roared as they fled in all directions.

Only by staying away from the palace can one guarantee safety.

"Damn it, what on earth happened at Nathan's Palace?"

Ron was furious: "It must be the Xia people's doing! Someone saw them heading towards the palace! Get Zhao Fangxu! Protest! I'm going to lodge a strong protest with Na Du Tong!" (End of Chapter)
