  All the World Tree powerhouses present knew Herberlon. They had fought against him when they destroyed the Karma Republic, so they had a deep impression of this enemy.

  Heart Tree King was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized the truth.

  “I see. This civilization’s initial intelligence on our World Tree came from you!”

  Chapter 1360 Heart Tree King’s Bullsh*tting and Sealing Plan

  The World Tree experts were suddenly enlightened.

  No wonder this civilization had shown a certain level of understanding of the World Tree when they first came into contact with it. Herberlon, whose home was invaded, was the best source of information, which made sense.

  The members of the World Tree remembered every battle clearly. Although the Karma Republic Alliance was not a strong opponent, Herberlon had left a deep impression on many World Tree experts. Some of them had even participated in the siege. This was a rare prey that had slipped away from their hands and disappeared into the vast universe after the fall of the Karma Republic.

  Fortitude Tree King quickly recovered from the shock of seeing someone he knew. He activated the protective equipment on his body and blocked the furious attack from Herberlon.

  “A loser from a destroyed civilization dares to continue opposing us instead of hiding. You managed to survive last time, but you won’t be so lucky this time. The mother tree has always wanted to devour you, so why don’t you merge with us and reunite with your compatriots!”

  “As long as I’m alive, the glory of the Karma Republic will never disappear!”

  Herberlon stabbed his blade into Fortitude Tree King’s thick shield and embedded it inside. Two new mechanical arms suddenly grew out from his shoulders and firmly locked Fortitude Tree King’s body in front of him. Following this, the flesh and machinery on his chest slid open, revealing a large energy outlet.

  Boom!

  An extremely thick dark red beam of light shot out, and in a flash, Fortitude Tree King’s chest was penetrated, leaving a huge hole with a torn edge. Broken parts flew everywhere.

  И

  This time, the damage was not light. Fortitude Tree King hurriedly activated the flowing force field and the power structure of the mechanical suit. A huge force was generated, and he immediately cut off the mechanical arm that was holding him. He then kicked Herberlon away, leaving a deep footprint on the latter’s abdomen armor.

  A portion of the mechanical soldiers in the surroundings returned to Fortitude Tree King’s body like tired birds returning to their nest. A large number of mechanical structures flowed in his body and quickly filled up the wound on his chest.

  Herberlon’s gigantic body stopped its retreat. He raised his hand and created an invisible force field that covered Fortitude Tree King. Fortitude Tree King’s body froze as if he had been hit by a Body Immobilization spell.

  Just as the decryption device on Fortitude Tree King’s body was analyzing the operating principles of the force field at a high speed, Herberlon grabbed his blade with both hands. His muscles and machinery twisted, accumulating an endless amount of energy. Dark red streams of light appeared on his body, and his energy reaction soared!

  The next moment, Herberlon’s gigantic body suddenly turned into a red bolt of lightning and charged forward. He instantly passed by Fortitude Tree King as if he teleported and appeared behind him.

  “Deity Maneuver!”

  Swoosh!

  In a flash, a huge hole was carved out on Fortitude Tree King’s waist, and he was almost cut in half. Energy continued to destroy the insides of the body through the wound, and the wound was still expanding.

  The space around Fortitude Tree King shook, and he suddenly broke the control of the force field and covered the wound on his waist. At the same time, he hurriedly turned around to block Herberlon’s charge. The force traveled along the clashing weapons and into his arm, causing a violent tremor. A large portion of the parts in both of their bodies malfunctioned from the tremor.

  “What a troublesome guy…”

  Fortitude Tree King was in a stalemate with Herberlon. He glanced at Han Xiao and realized that he had already left to fight Heart Tree King.

  He wanted to help but could not escape. Although he called Herberlon a loser, he had to admit that this guy had the might to restrain him.

  On the other side, Han Xiao had finally gotten rid of the two-on-one situation. He chased after Heart Tree King with his mechanical army, and the psychic barrier clashed with the bombardment of fire.

  Heart Tree King dodged Han Xiao’s psionic slash and the World Tree Roots—that he got after transforming-moved like tentacles around him, blocking the attacks from all directions.

  “I have to say, during our battle in the universe, you are the most troublesome Super Lifeform we have encountered. There are not many people who are qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with you. Because of your existence, our large group of foreign experts is almost useless. Without you, your high-level combatants would not be able to fight us.”

  Han Xiao turned a deaf ear to him. He clapped his hands, and the anti-psychic energy device released waves of energy. The psychic barrier seemed to have received an attack at its weak points, and it exploded repeatedly, forcing Heart Tree King to have no choice but to invest more energy to stabilize his psychic strength. Seeing that Han Xiao did not speak, Heart Tree King did not give up and continued.

  “I can give you a promise. If you are willing to leave, the World Tree will not chase after you and your companions-not that we would be able to chase you anyway. You can stay far away from this battle that is bound to fail. The universe is so big, you can live anywhere. Living is more important than anything.”

  “You guys haven’t won yet, don’t be too confident.”

  Han Xiao replied calmly, ignoring the pain of his brain being tortured by the mental attacks. He swung his blade again and collided with the Psychic King

  Heart Tree King shook his head. “It’s very difficult for high-level combatants to decide the direction of the universe-level war. Even if you can withstand the attacks of our high-level combatants time and time again, you won’t be able to change the situation in the frontal war. You’re destined to be defeated. Actually, you have another choice. You might as well join us and become a member of the World Tree. You can join us to fight in the universe. Your ability is more than enough to replace the position of Fortitude Tree King.” “Trying to instigate me?” Han Xiao sneered. “Putting aside whether I’m willing to become a puppet that has lost its free will, just my identity as an expert from another race will never allow me to become the Tree King. You’d better save this trick to fool others.”

  Heart Tree King did not mind. “Even if you kill me and cause our fleet in this war zone to lose the buff of the World Tree’s power, we might still be able to break through your defense through normal battles. Is it worth it to sacrifice so many high-level combatants for such a small chance?”

  Han Xiao was too lazy to respond. He activated another army combat skill and changed it to provide the bonus of agility and long-range attack speed, making the mechanical army more agile. The continuous energy weapons rained down on the roots of the World Tree, tearing them into pieces.

  Seeing this, Heart Tree King did not give up and continued to use the chatting tactic. “You and I will not be able to determine the victor. I have witnessed the battle between you and Subduing Tree King. I will not fall into the same trap.’

  Wow, you can really bullsh*t, almost catching up to me!

  Han Xiao’s eyes twitched.

  However, on second thought, he felt that what Heart Tree King said was not without reason. If the other party was prepared, it would not be easy to replicate the strategy that dealt with Subduing Tree King.

  If they fought normally, he would
indeed have the upper hand, but at the crucial moment, Heart Tree King would still have the choice of self-destructing and retreating to receive the protection of the fleet. The chances of killing him were very low.

  Han Xiao then opened the private chat and contacted Hila.

  “Hila, leave the battlefield first and stay beside Aurora.”

  “Hmm?”

  Hila’s tone was filled with killing intent, but it was toward the enemy.

  After Aurora lost consciousness, Hila immediately entered a berserk state, killing everyone on the battlefield. She did not even send the dead into the Underworld but turned them all into soul energy to strengthen herself. Her presence on the battlefield was extremely strong, and she had already killed two Holy Tree Emissaries.

  The dead only had one soul. If they were sent to the Underworld to be heroic spirits, they would not be able to trigger the rapid growth of the Power Of The Dead. The galactic battlefield was like a meat grinder. Hila followed Han Xiao’s philosophy most of the time and sent the soldiers sacrificed by the three Universal Civilizations into the Underworld. Only a few times did she use them to strengthen herself.

  Even so, due to the huge number of people, Hila’s combat strength was growing at an astonishing rate, and she was like a completely different person from before the war. Even without the ability to shorten the opponent’s lifespan, there were not many people in the association who had the confidence to defeat her.

  “I have a plan. Let’s see if we can deal with this tree king who knocked Aurora unconscious. Follow my orders.”

  “…Alright!”

  The one that Hila wanted to kill the most was Heart Tree King. Hearing that Han Xiao had a plan, she quickly regained some of her calmness. She glanced at the wounded ancestral spirit in front of her, suppressed the killing intent in her heart, and retreated toward the three Universal Civilizations’ fleet.

  After getting rid of the World Tree experts one after another, Hila returned to Aurora’s spaceship with difficulty. To escape from the battle, she had gained many new wounds on her body. Although her healer had collapsed temporarily, her Power Of The Dead had extraordinary self-regeneration, and her wounds were gradually healing. Suddenly, there was a flash of light in the cabin, and a mechanical soldier wearing the King armor teleported over, handing the item in his hand to Hila. “Hmm? This is…”

  апу

  Hila looked down at the item in the mechanical soldier’s hands, and a hint of surprise appeared on her usually expressionless face. She coldly glanced at the surrounding crew members, and only when she saw that no one was moving did she take it.

  This time, Han Xiao’s voice sounded in the private channel.

  “I’ll give this to you for the time being. I’ve let you practice with it before. Do you know how to use it?”

  “Hmm,” Hila said with a deep voice. “What’s your plan?”

  “I’ll try to create an opportunity later. If it succeeds, use the King on that mechanical soldier to teleport over, then connect to your Advancing in the Dead Sea and teleport to the target to use it…” Han Xiao quickly explained.

  “I understand.” Hila nodded and looked at the item in her hand. It was a white crystal the size of a palm.

  This item was the Spacetime Amber!

  Usually, Han Xiao would not give this thing to others, but this time, he would probably need someone else to do it.

  In the past few months, he had trained Hila on how to use this Universal Treasure to coordinate with (Azure Dragon Bind) and form a new strategy.

  Through Phillip’s battle simulation, he realized that in most situations, the die-together tactic could only kill the tree king or force it to self-destruct. From the looks of it, this new tactic was the method with the highest success rate to capture them.

  Maintaining his private channel, Han Xiao looked at Heart Tree King, who was easily evading the attacks of the mechanical army. “I hope this works…”

  Just letting you guys know threating me by stop reading here doesn’t work with me (should I stop posting privileged chapters will you be able to read it on other sites unless except you pay on webnovel?). Also no favoritism to anyone just that guys is letting me know about the issues and his issue is real so I acted on it. So, if you feel something is wrong or someone is spamming etc do let me know. There is a report button if I see a valid report I will definitely act on it.

  Chapter 1361 - Facing Death and Gamble

  Chapter 1361 Facing Death and Gamble

  The battle zone of the Beyond Grade As was scattered all over the battlefield, and it was a bloody battle. Individual strengths from both sides fell one after another, and the battles between the fleets of both sides were equally intense. The World Tree Army, which was enhanced by the Tree King’s halo, continued to advance. Although the three Universal Civilizations continued to provide reinforcements, the defense line was still slowly but surely retreating.

  Due to the constantly changing battlefield of the fleets, the battle areas of the Beyond Grade As were also shifting accordingly.

  Ames moved around in space, controlling the force field to harass the enemies or help her comrades. Her dress was stained with blood.

  There were more than ten Beyond Grade As participating in the team battle in the area she was in, and the association members and the direct descendants had the upper hand against the enemies.

  Force Field Esper Abilities had an all-rounder characteristic and could be used for both attack and defense. Ames was mainly used as a control type on the battlefield. Occasionally, she would condense a force field or drag a battleship to attack, and the damage was not low.

  She extended her palm and used Gaze of the Dragon on one of the Holy Tree Emissaries. Ames quickly scanned the battlefield and realized that the battlefield of Herberlon, Fortitude Tree King, Han Xiao, and Heart Tree King had already been shifted to a faraway place. The layers of battleships in the battlefield almost covered their figures, and she could only see the occasional flashes of energy that were far more intense than here.

  “Looks like he won’t be able to kill the Tree King so quickly…”

  Ames frowned slightly and retracted her gaze. She dodged a compressed beam of light and countered with a pale green shock wave.

  Looking at the battlefield, Ames saw a brief flaw in the enemy’s side and was about to ask her teammates to work together to create time for her to gather her energy, but at this moment, the other party threw a wave of focused fire at her. The few association members who were supposed to be blocking in front immediately dodged, and she had no choice but to stop accumulating her energy and dodge.

  “This won’t do. There’s no way to kill the enemy.” Ames glanced at the association members and shook her head.

  Even after having the upper hand for so long, they had not been able to cause much damage to the enemy. Every time they wanted to advance, the World Tree experts would become more fearless. In contrast, the comrades of the association would cower in fear because of this, not wanting to be injured. This caused them to lose the opportunity to expand their advantage again and again.

  The temporary loss of the milkmaid had a huge impact on the Beyond Grade As’ battle. Most of the association members did not have the mentality to risk their lives like last time and did not want to get injured. Their combat style became more conservative while the World Tree experts became more ferocious.

  Ames heard from the channel that many of the association members were dissatisfied with Han Xiao’s plan. Initially, they planned to quickly get rid of the Tree King to reduce the disadvantage of the main battlefield. However, both sides were in a stalemate now. Black Star could not complete his goal, and Aurora was also beaten back temporarily, leading to the sacrifice of many Beyond Grade As. In their eyes, the plan had failed, and it was a sure loss.

  Furthermore, after fighting for so long, the main battlefield was already in a bad situation. Even if they killed the Tree King now, they might not be able to reverse the
situation. Therefore, in the eyes of many association members, the sacrifices from this attack plan were meaningless. Instead, many of them had lost the one-time Sanctum Revival opportunity, so they were filled with complaints.

  The Beyond Grade A Association members had all prepared for the worst. They still believed that the Sanctum Revival could only happen once, so they did not take Han Xiao’s words of ‘convincing’ the Revivors seriously.

  Many of them were already thinking of retreating, but they could not leave the battle for the time being. They could only protect themselves and were not willing to pay the price for killing their opponent. This kind of conservative mindset affected their combat strength, and Ames could only cooperate with her teammates in retreating. She had no intention of charging into the enemies alone.

  At this moment, one of the Holy Tree Emissaries suddenly paused, as if the damage had been accumulated to the limit. His body stiffened, revealing an obvious flaw.

  “Chance!”

  Ames and her teammates immediately changed targets and focused their attacks on this person. All kinds of abilities shattered the defensive shield that the other party had hastily constructed and landed on his body, causing blood to splatter everywhere.

  Just as they were about to pursue and kill the enemy, the other World Tree experts suddenly unleashed their full strength and charged toward the front of this heavily injured teammate, trying to force them to retreat like the previous few times.

  Facing such a powerful attack, the members of the association hesitated and retreated. They did not face it head-on. It was not that they could not endure the attack head-on, but they were unwilling to do so. They would rather give up this opportunity than getting injured.

  Seeing this, Ames felt a little helpless. This situation had already happened a few times. Due to the members of the association retreating, they had missed many opportunities.

  But at this moment, a firm voice sounded in the channel.
