Chapter 1539 - Cultivation Break!
"Sister Caiwei, look at them. They really are irritating."
"If it wasn"t for junior brother Gu absorbing the power of the black tree, they might all have been trapped here to death. Now that junior brother Gu has paved the way, not to mention waiting for junior brother Gu, they actually didn"t even thank you before leaving."
"The Ancient Era"s Immortal Ruins are right in front of us. How many people are able to endure it?" Don"t bother about them! " Gu Caiwei shook her head and sighed lightly. Then, a mocking smile surfaced on her elegant face. "Furthermore, it"s not as if the earlier we enter, the more rewards we reap. Perhaps the earlier we see, the earlier we die."
"That"s right."
Tang ManRou sneered, "If the entrance pa.s.sage is already so dangerous, then the danger level within the Immortal ruins would not be any less than here."
"..."
While they were talking, the two of them no longer paid attention to their surroundings and focused on Tang Huan.
Tens of thousands of cultivators turned into two streams of light as they roared past the two sides of the giant black tree, their figures disappearing at the end of the tunnel. After a short while, within the pa.s.sageway, other than Tang Huan who was sitting upright at the foot of the huge black tree, only Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou were left.
"Wuuuuuu ~ ~ ~"
The sound of the giant tree didn"t stop.
From the incessant sharp notes, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou could clearly sense a mixed emotion of anger, mania, anxiety and helplessness. However, no matter how the giant tree shouted or moved, it could not catch up to Tang Huan at all.
From afar, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou who were watching completely relaxed, no longer worrying about Tang Huan"s safety.
When the giant black tree was at its most fearsome, it could not even deal with Tang Huan. Now that its body was less than half its original size, it was naturally impossible for it to pose a threat to Tang Huan at the bottom of the tree.
After a long time, both Gu Caiwei and Tang ManRou, who had just finished refining the pill, simultaneously opened their eyes. The Tian Yuan in their bodies had once again become abundant. However, when the two of them subconsciously cast their gazes at the giant black tree, they were stunned.
The tree was no more than two hundred meters tall!
In the time it took to refine a single medicinal pill, the black tree had grown a hundred meters shorter. Not only that, the giant black tree was still shrinking at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. It was now 180 meters in diameter … 150 meters …. 120 meters … One hundred meters …
Upon seeing this, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou both widened their beautiful eyes in surprise.
They already knew that the speed at which the black tree was shrinking was increasing, but they didn"t expect it to reach such an astonis.h.i.+ng level in such a short amount of time.
After a moment, the two of them looked at each other and almost simultaneously floated forward.
About ten meters away from the black tree, the two of them stopped. At this time, although the black tree roots were still crazily waving about, their power had been reduced by who knew how many times. They even had a feeling that if they were to use their sword, they might be able to cut down a lot of the tree roots.
"The Immortal"s cave has finally been repaired!"
Tang Huan was ecstatic.
The reason why the black tree had shrunk at such a terrifying speed was because the speed at which he was absorbing energy had increased dramatically. The more s.p.a.ce there was to be restored, the faster the sucking would be able to recover. When the last crack in s.p.a.ce disappeared, the power of the sucking would instantly double.
Tang Huan did not stop, she once again absorbed a huge amount of energy and fused it into the cave, causing it to become more and more stable.
When the giant black tree was only about fifty metres tall, Tang Huan finally stopped activating the "Ten Thousand Endless Sword Formation", and the mountain and river painting that carried the s.p.a.ce within the cave also stopped absorbing energy.
However, Tang Huan did not stop when she saw the power of the black tree.
Although all the energy that he absorbed did not enter the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram", it remained within the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace". Tang Huan continued to operate the furnace and the Dao Nascent Soul to the extreme, crazily refining the black tree"s power and quickly fusing it with the 40,000 Dao Crystals that he had gathered to form a Dao Nascent Soul.
"Eh? Why does it seem to have slowed down again? "
Not far away, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou couldn"t help but look at each other, stunned. Just now, the black tree"s shrinking suddenly slowed down by quite a bit.
The two of them could not see through what was going on, so they could not help but be on their guard.
"Buzz!"
It was the enormous dark blue sword that Tang Huan had helped her forge not too long ago. "Man Rou, we need to prepare ourselves, if anything happens to Junior Brother Gu Ying, don"t hesitate, and immediately make our move."
"Understood!"
In between her mind instructs (in a second), a fiery-red long blade that had just fused with the Dantian appeared in a flash. Two pairs of eyes were staring intently at the black tree, and her Perception Ability had also risen to the peak at this moment.
Time pa.s.sed by slowly. What made Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou a little suspicious was that neither Tang Huan nor the black tree had shown any unusual signs. Although the speed at which the black tree was shrinking had decreased greatly, the shrinkage did not stop.
Forty meters … Twenty meters … Ten meters …
Inadvertently, the gigantic black tree that was a few hundred meters tall had already turned into a small tree that was only a few meters tall. However, the two fire red chains were still wrapped tightly around the black tree root.
Gu Caiwei and Tang ManRou let out a light sigh. It was impossible for such a small tree to cause any more trouble.
"Hu!"
But right at this moment, a burst of powerful Qi suddenly with Tang Huan as the center, quickly swept out in all directions, Tang Huan"s surroundings, seemed to have formed a violent storm out of nowhere, the black small tree shook violently, following that, it released waves of weak wuwu sounds.
"Junior brother Gu broke through?"
"Fourth level of the Heavenly Lord Realm?"
Upon seeing this, Gu Caiwei and Tang Manrou couldn"t help but look at each other. However, they immediately came to their senses, and a hint of surprise and happiness surfaced on their faces. They didn"t expect that Tang Huan"s cultivation would actually break through in this pa.s.sage.
At this moment, the two of them suddenly understood.
Before, the reason why Tang Huan was able to absorb the black tree"s power faster was obviously because she was relying on some kind of treasure that was able to contain power. However, no matter how powerful the treasure was, it should have its limits. After the treasure was filled with the black tree"s power, Tang Huan started to refine it by herself.
Because of this, the rate at which the black tree lost strength and reminded others to reduce their power was greatly reduced.
However, the tens of thousands of cultivators were helpless against the black tree. Not only was Tang Huan able to absorb and refine the black tree"s power, it was enough to shock the two of them.
