This number was probably no less than several tens of thousands!
One already had the strength of the Ten Great Divine Kings. Several tens of thousands added together, even if Ye Yuan had three heads and six arms, he was not a match either!
"These guys are not easy to deal with! Go!" Ye Yuan said in a low voice.
The three people did not hesitate in the slightest and instantly scampered off!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
How could the Blackwater Giant Crocodiles give them a chance? For a moment, countless figures scurried after.
Ye Yuan flipped his hand, and a Fury Sword Fire Lotus instantly burst forth.
Boom!
A terrifying energy exploded, directly carving out a bloody path.
However, what took the three people by surprise was that Ye Yuan's Fury Sword Fire Lotus merely just shook away these Blackwater Giant Crocodiles.
It actually did not kill them!
With Ye Yuan's present strength, killing Ten Great Divine Kings-class powerhouses was not difficult.
But this attack actually did not succeed!
"These guys have such a powerful defensive capability! Head over there! The Blackwater Giant Crocodiles there are fewer!" Ye Yuan shouted.
The Blackwater Giant Crocodiles launched attacks at the three people continuously. The three people did not dare to slight it either and unleashed all of their ability, driving away those Blackwater Giant Crocodiles.
"Monumental Sword!"
Ye Yuan's physical exertion was immense. Currently, he could only use essence energy martial techniques too.
He did not dare to hold back in the slightest. The moment he made his move, it was the Monumental Sword.
A terrifying sword intent wreaked havoc, finally splitting those thick-fleshed Blackwater Giant Crocodiles into pieces.
They headed for this relatively lesser area right from the start. This sword finally slaughtered out a bloody path, breaking out of the Blackwater Giant Crocodiles' encirclement.
The three people's figures swept past hastily, how could they dare to remain in the least bit?
Ye Yuan's physical strength had yet to recover. His essence energy consumption was also huge. He was completely unable to carry on fighting.
No idea how long they were running away, finally, there were no more traces of Blackwater Giant Crocodiles behind them before the three people stopped.
White Light's expression was ashen pale as he said, "That Blackwater Giant Crocodile army can even destroy the Divine Realm if it's brought outside! I really have no idea just what kind of place this Godsfall Mountain Range is, to actually be able to produce so many existences rivaling the Ten Great Divine Kings!"
Before he could respond, Ye Yuan's expression suddenly changed. A feeling of danger welled up in the heart once more!
Chapter 1259 - Deathsoul Tree
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
Several black streaks ambushed Ye Yuan trio at a strange angle.
Shi Potian's iron fist swung, the power of laws spreading out imposingly. He directly blasted those few black streaks to dust.
But in the next instant, even more black streaks flew over.
The three people focused their eyes and looked over. They could not help feeling their scalps tingle.
What entered their eyes was all densely packed little black snakes!
Although these little snakes' strength could not compare to those Blackwater Giant Crocodiles, they were superior in numbers.
"It's Steel Wire Black Snakes! There are probably millions of them! This place isn't suitable to stay for long, break out of the encirclement in that direction!" Ye Yuan said solemnly.
Steel Wire Black Snakes' strength was slightly weaker, but that was just in comparison with Blackwater Giant Crocodiles.
The difference in numbers was plenty to compensate for the deficiency in this bit of strength.
In contrast, these few million Steel Wire Black Snakes were even more terrifying than those Blackwater Giant Crocodiles.
How could Ye Yuan and the others still dare to remain? They desperately broke out of the encirclement in one direction.
Fortunately, Shi Potian's strength was powerful enough. Charging along the way, those Steel Wire Black Snakes were unable to approach at all.
Only after expending a Herculean effort did the three people slaughter their way out of the heavy encirclement of the Steel Wire Black Snakes.
Sprinting madly along the way, the three people were chased by the Steel Wire Black Snakes for goodness knows how long before they gradually retreated.
"No wonder this place is known as the Death Marsh! How can there be so many horrifying things existing?" White Light said with a look of lingering fear.
Shi Potian said, "Blackwater Giant Crocodiles and Steel Wire Black Snakes are probably the lowest rank existences in this Death Marsh."
White Light could not help being greatly astonishment when he heard that and said, "No wonder this place is known as the god-forbidden region, it truly lives up to its reputation! Even such terrifying existences are only the lowest rank?"
It was not up to White Light to not be surprised. If the Blackwater Giant Crocodiles and Steel Wire Black Snakes ran to the Divine Realm, they would absolutely be existences that could sweep away everything.
It was also that the three people's strengths were extremely formidable, even stronger than Deity Realm powerhouses whose realms were suppressed, that they could charge out of the encirclement.
Otherwise, even if the Ten Great Divine Kings' top five came in, it was also certain death.
But this level of existence was actually merely just a low-level existence!
The three people were currently bewildered and doubtful when alarm bells sounded again!
White Light could not resist letting loose a torrent of abuse, "Are we done here or not?!"
Ye Yuan's brows knitted even tighter. The one who took action along the way was mostly Shi Potian.
He was making the best use of time to recover his strength!
This time, what surrounded them was a bunch of black rates. The numbers were even more exceedingly terrifying.
The three people expended a considerable effort, slaughtering out of the heavy encirclement once more.
"Everybody, be careful! I feel like there seems to be someone controlling these desolate beasts. They … seem to currently be driving us to a certain place." Ye Yuan suddenly said in a low voice.
Starting from the second wave, Ye Yuan already had an uneasy feeling in his heart.
Those desolate beasts seemed to be deliberately leaving a gap so that they could escape.
Once, twice, the third time, each time it was like this. This made Ye Yuan's suspicions even greater.
Even though their strength was very formidable and slaughtering out of the heavy encirclement was a matter of course.
But those desolate beasts did not really engage in a life-and-death struggle with them.
Several times of encirclements all seemed to be guiding them towards a certain direction.
White Light was alarmed when he heard and said, "No way, right? Who has this strength to be able to manipulate so many horrifying desolate beast hordes?"
Ye Yuan's expression was very much, but he did not answer.
White Light suddenly thought of something and used a consulting gaze to look over toward Ye Yuan, saying in shock and confusion, "Could it be …"
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, "Apart from the Deathsoul tree, it seems like there are no other possibilities!"
White Light's expression became pale as a sheet. Even though he was very confident, facing this kind of existence that even Deity Realm powerhouses were unable to resist, his heart was racing too.
Walking all this way, White Light already grew into a true powerhouse who could take charge at one of the fronts.
But the Deathsoul Tree was different!
Perhaps, it was an existence that surpassed the Deity Re
alm!
Just how strong the Deathsoul Tree was, what kind of means it had, they were completely clueless.
What they knew was that the Deathsoul Tree was not what they were capable of contending with.
"This … What to do here? We didn't encounter the Kunwu Divine Wood but ran into a Deathsoul Tree. This … This is also too unlucky, right?" White Light said with a bitter smile.
"Heh, even if we ran into the Kunwu Divine Wood, it might not be much better than the current situation either," Ye Yuan said.
"Then … Then what should we do now?" White Light said.
A glimmer of seriousness flashed across Ye Yuan's eyes, and he said, "These dangers are originally things that were within expectations! Didn't we mentally prepare ourselves for this trip? The god-forbidden region is a region that even Deity Realm powerhouses are unable to cross!"
White Light's entire body trembled, his emotion stabilized considerably by Ye Yuan's one sentence. Gritting his teeth, he said, "What Big Brother says is right! Hehe, in this world, is there still a place that can stump the two of us brothers? Even if it's a blade mountain and sea of fire, White Light will accompany Big Brother and make this trip! What do you say, Big Brother?"
Ye Yuan also towered with heroism as he said, "Haha, my good brother! Now that it came to this, we might as well push the boat along the current! Doesn't he want to meet us? Then let us go and take a look at … just how strong this legendary Deathsoul Tree is!"
"Hahaha, Big Brother, with you saying this, I became really interested!" White Light said with a hearty laugh.
It was not that Ye Yuan did not wish to leave, but he knew that once they did not follow the established route, those desolate beasts would definitely launch attacks at the three of them like crazy!
With these desolate beasts' strength and numbers, no matter how strong the three of them were, they would be exhausted to death too.
Even if they really killed all of these desolate beasts, whether or not they could escape was still another matter altogether.
Since that was the case, they might as well preserve their strength and meet with the perpetrator.
Shi Potian still had an indifferent appearance. But the slight undulations emitting off his body revealed a tiny hint of change in countenance.
These brothers kept a straight face even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of them. This bearing was indeed worthy of being the World Suppressing Stele's successor!
Since the goal was set, the three people fought all the way. Experiencing several twists and turns again, they came to a stretch of an open field.
This wilderness was no longer a marshland but a stretch of black-color land.
On this open field, not a blade of grass grew, looking just like a piece of scorched earth.
Looking over, this wilderness no longer had anything on it. There was just a lone big tree.
The large tree was pitch-black throughout and did not even have a blade of leaf on the branches, being stark-n.a.k.e.d.
On the treetop stood three black crows, currently crying out in lament, as if urging people.
Crows were inauspicious things. Its appearance tended to accompany death!
Seeing this large black tree, Ye Yuan's face involuntarily fell.
"Could this be the legendary Deathsoul Tree? It looks like … there doesn't seem to be anything special," White Light suddenly said.
"The more unremarkable the place is, the more dangerous! See those three crows? If my conjectures are right, those three crows should be representing us! The Deathsoul Tree is telling us that today, the three of us will be losing our lives here!" Ye Yuan said solemnly.
Chapter 1260 - The Eyes of the Black Crows!
"Caw, caw, caw …"
As if answering Ye Yuan's words, the crows on the treetop gave off extremely unpleasant cries.
White Light could not help flying into a great rage the moment he heard. Raising his hand, a palm slapped over!
Ye Yuan did not stop White Light, because he also wished to see just how terrifying this Deathsoul Tree was.
However, the subsequent scene gave the three people a huge shock!
The heaven and earth essence energy that White Light mustered only advanced a distance of 30 feet and immediately dissipated into nothing!
It was as if a force that they were completely unable to understand existed in this space.
"This …"
White Light could not help looking at Ye Yuan, a look of shock on his face.
This Deathsoul Tree indeed lived up to its reputation!
But at this time, they hoped for this Deathsoul Tree's reputation to fall short of reality even more.
Ye Yuan was likewise inexplicably shocked. White Light's strength, he was all too clear.
Perfect White Tiger Physique let White Light comprehend the White Tiger Darklight Divine Art to the Divine Dao realm long ago.
The current White Light's strength was even more than a magnitude greater compared to the Soul Martial Divine King, Zhong Zizhen.
But the power of his one palm move actually could not even leave the 30 feet area in front of him!
Ye Yuan had never encountered such a bizarre thing before!
Just now, he clearly detected a tiny hint of undulation. That kind of undulation, with his current realm, it could not be understood at all.
"Is this the Deathsoul Tree? As expected, ridiculously strong! No wonder even Deity Realm powerhouses are certain to die. Looks like this Deathsoul Tree isn't what our cultivation realm can resist at all," Ye Yuan drew a deep breath and said.
Suddenly, an ancient and somber voice sounded out by Ye Yuan's ear.
That voice sounded incomparably somber, giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling, just like … the crows were talking.
Looking closely, wasn't it that crow in the middle that was talking?
"There's finally such fresh divine souls taking the initiative to deliver themselves to the door! Mmm … your divine soul, it seems to be very tasty!"
Ye Yuan's expression turned sharp, his entire seemingly being stared at by the death god, feeling like his whole divine soul was about to leave his body!
The crow was currently staring at Ye Yuan at this time, making Ye Yuan feel that his divine soul was about to collapse and disintegrate.
Feeling extreme uneasiness was Ye Yuan's genuine emotion at this time!
In the depths of his sea of consciousness, the Soul Suppressing Pearl faintly emitted a trace of undulation. Soon enough, Ye Yuan's divine soul calmed down.
"Senior, the three of us had no intention of offending. We just mistakenly entered this place. Hope that Senior will let us go," Ye Yuan forcefully suppressed the oppressiveness in his heart and said with cupped fists.
"En? You can actually withstand my divine soul pressure? Interesting, interesting!" The crow's voice revealed a mild surprise.
It was just that his voice made people's hair stand on end.
"Look into my eyes!" said the crow as it opened its mouth as if there was a magical power in its voice.
Ye Yuan just felt his divine soul quiver, and that feeling of collapse welled up in his heart once more!
Can't look! Absolutely can't look!
Ye Yuan also did not know to what extent the Soul Suppressing Pearl could achieve. He was actually very uncertain in his heart too.
After all, this Deathsoul Tree was an existence that surpassed the Deity Realm in the legends!
In the present age where Divine Dao dwindled to zero, that kind of existence virtually as powerful as being able to coexist alongside Heavenly Dao. There was absolutely no way to imagine it.
Therefore, he did not dare to look at the crow's eyes.
Except, his body did not seem to obey his command, his gaze involuntarily shifting towards that crow in the center.
All the cold sweat in Ye Yuan's body seemingly poured out like a fountain.
In virtually an instant, his entire body was drenched in sweat.
&nb
sp; Past life and this life, even when facing Ji Canglan back then, he was also not so despaired and powerless before.
This was a confrontation on a completely different level!
Even if facing Heavenly Fiendgod Kanuo, he at least had strength leftover to resist.
At the very least, he could imagine what kind of existence Kanuo was.
But now, Ye Yuan did not have the least bit of margin to resist!
Ye Yuan wanted to attack to resist, but his body seemed to have a paralyzing spell cast on it, unable to move even a finger at all!
The only things that could move were his eyes!
Ye Yuan was unable to understand why in the age where Divine Dao dwindled to zero, there would still be an existence like this.
Could it be that surpassing Divine Dao, one would be able to not be constrained by Heavenly Dao anymore?
It was just that, there was already no more time to let him ponder over now.
Ye Yuan used every last ounce of his strength, wanting to shift his gaze towards White Light there. Suddenly, his mind shook heavily.
He clearly saw White Light's divine soul leave the body, flying straight for that crow on the left!
As for Shi Potian, the stoneman clan was a very special existence. All of their everything existed inside the heart of stone. There was no divine soul at all.
But Ye Yuan saw another scene that made him feel alarmed and rage.
Lu-er's divine soul actually flew out of the Vast Heaven Pagoda, flying towards that crow on the right!
Ye Yuan glared with his eyes wide, feeling like his entire person was about to explode!
Powerless!
Tremendous powerlessness!
Only now did he know that it turned out this third crow was not prepared for Shi Potian but prepared for Lu-er!
As for Li-er, because her physique was special, her spirit and flesh could not be separated long ago. The Deathsoul Tree actually did not prepare a crow for her.
However, Shi Potian also did not move a muscle currently. Clearly, he was being restrained too.
Shi Potian's strength was even greater than Ye Yuan's. He was once a genuine Deity Realm powerhouse!
But he was still not the Deathsoul Tree's match.
