Chapter 1269: Frequent Tactics
Chapter 1269: Frequent Tactics
"Relocate elsewhere?"
The Polar Tree Matron's tone carried a hint of surprise.
"I was born in the Tree Realm and have existed here for over ten thousand years. I have become one with this place, and relocation is no easy task."
"Finding a place as similar to the Tree Realm, yet safe and secure, is as difficult as ascending to the heavens."
"I won't hide it from you, Senior. I have a good place in mind."
Lu Xuan smiled slightly.
"I once fortuitously obtained an Incomplete Dao Realm and spent great effort gathering several high-grade treasures, refining them into a Personal Space. If you don't mind, you can settle there."
"Young friend, you have a Personal Space refined from an Incomplete Dao Realm. Your resources are truly formidable."
The Polar Tree Matron said with a slight surprise.
"The Qi environment inside should not be inferior to this Tree Realm. However, the Tree Realm is home to countless Plant Spirits, which are closely tied to my life. To settle them, a vast area is needed."
There was a hint of interest in her tone.
"My Personal Space spans nearly three thousand miles. I wonder if it meets your requirements?"
Lu Xuan exuded full confidence.
When the Personal Space was first refined, it only covered a few hundred miles. Over the years, he continuously expanded it by acquiring various spiritual soils and springs. With the help of the treasures integrated, its area is now several times larger.
"Three thousand miles... it's barely enough."
The Polar Tree Matron said softly.
"How about this: I will make a pact with you. Once you break through to the Late Nascent Soul stage, I will relocate the Tree Realm's Plant Spirits and myself into your Personal Space."
"Both sides will benefit. You provide us with a shelter, and if you need anything from me, just say so."
Lu Xuan had come multiple times to inquire about ripening spiritual plants, so the Polar Tree Matron was well aware of his needs. She spoke frankly.
"No problem, it's a deal."
Hearing the Polar Tree Matron's conditions, Lu Xuan nodded without hesitation.
To bring this mysterious wooden spirit into his Personal Space is worth any cost. This request was nothing.
"From now on, I won't have to worry about obtaining eighth-grade ripened spiritual plants..."
He thought to himself.
With the existence of the light orb, breaking through to the Late Nascent Soul stage would be much easier for him. It wouldn't take many years to bring the Polar Tree Matron under his command.
"Senior, the more pressing issue now is dealing with those malicious Nascent Soul Cultivators."
"I have nothing to do recently, so I'll stay in the Tree Realm for a while. Once the problem is resolved, I'll return to the Sword Sect."
His expression was solemn, and the treasures before him emitted a brilliant glow, ready for action.
...
Deep within the Tree Realm.
A massive crack appeared on the emerald sky, and seven beams of light shot out like lightning, revealing seven cultivators hovering in the air, scanning the Tree Realm indifferently.
All seven had profound and vast auras, indicating they were Nascent Soul Cultivators. The leader, a middle-aged cultivator, was even more unfathomable, clearly a Late Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"The Tree Realm was once hidden in the Greenwood Star Grotto, making it difficult to enter. Now, it has more and more vulnerabilities."
A Palace Lady chuckled, and a Jade Ruyi in her hand transformed into a Dual-Headed Silver Wolf, which obediently stayed by her side.
"With such a Spirit Ling, Daoist He's mid-rank magic treasure has greatly increased in power."
A thin old man beside her remarked.
"Too kind, Daoist Zhang. While the Polar Tree Matron is still injured, let's join forces and quickly resolve this matter."
The palace lady spoke, and the jade ruyi in her hand transformed into a silver light, carrying her away instantly into the Tree Realm.
The other six figures each used their unique abilities, disappearing into the endless trees.
"They’re here!"
"Senior, please focus on dealing with that Late Nascent Soul Cultivator. I’ll handle the others."
Lu Xuan chuckled, unfurling a pair of silvery-white wings from his back. Lightning coursed through the wings as he flapped them gently, vanishing in an instant.
Endless vines continuously transformed, forming a powerful array that isolated the seven Nascent Soul Cultivators who had invaded the Tree Realm.
A bald cultivator grabbed a bulging black bag from his waist, muttering incantations. Accompanied by a dizzying hum, thousands of grotesque four-winged black bugs scattered.
The black bugs released a dark spiritual light that seemed highly corrosive. The moment the vines made contact, they rapidly turned to black ash.
As the area invaded by the four-winged black bugs expanded, a light hum echoed from deep within the vines. Immediately, five differently colored divine flames shot out, instantly reducing the black bugs to ashes wherever they passed.
"My spirit bugs!"
The bald cultivator was filled with anguish. These black bugs were raised with his essence and blood over more than a hundred years. Due to their effectiveness against wood-type spirits, he had been invited by the others to help deal with the Polar Tree Matron. He hadn’t expected them to be burned to ashes before they could fully take effect.
Lu Xuan put away the Five-Fire Seven-Bird Fan, and with a thought, the surrounding space transformed into countless flowing lines—the Mini Teleportation Technique, which allowed for instantaneous movement within a certain range.
...
On the other side, a male and female cultivator wielded flying swords, swiftly weaving through the endless vines.
They were a pair of dao companions from the Central State of the Cloudy Void Region, both at the early Nascent Soul level. They were deeply attuned to each other and excelled in cooperative combat techniques.
Suddenly, the sun, moon, and stars appeared silently around them, revolving rapidly with intricate and profound trajectories, embodying the deepest truths of sword dao.
"A Grade 7 sword array! Be careful, my love!"
Their hearts raced as their flying swords transformed into black and white dragons, protecting their bodies.
...
"The Cosmic Star Sword Array should have no problem trapping two early Nascent Soul cultivators."
In the depths of Lu Xuan’s mind, the profound stars shimmered, and his divine sense spread out, immediately locating the trace of another mid-Nascent Soul cultivator.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator was a Body Refinement Cultivator, his body appearing as if it had been forged from fine gold. Behind him, a hundred-zhang dharmic image emerged, radiating an aura that seemed to disdain everything in its presence.
With a single punch from the dharmic image, the qi within a radius of several dozen miles trembled, causing the Tree Realm’s great array to waver, on the verge of collapse.
"I’ll deal with you."
A smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s lips. He threw the Five-Thunder Immortal Lock Bracelet, which transformed into a five-colored lightning ring, locking onto the Body Refinement Cultivator.
The lightning ring descended from the sky, locking the cultivator’s neck and limbs.
"What kind of scoundrel dares to sneak attack!"
The Body Refinement Cultivator roared, the sound waves rolling out. The dharmic image behind him clasped its hands together and suddenly enlarged, causing the five-colored lightning ring to silently shatter, releasing torrents of lightning.
Just as he thought he had broken free from the constraints of this restraining treasure, a sudden surge of powerful killing intent made his heart race.
Before he could react, a silver lightning arrow seemed to cross space, instantly traversing over a hundred miles to reach him.
The arrow, surrounded by lightning, looked like a predatory beast ready to devour its prey.
The dharmic image protected the cultivator’s body, facing the silver lightning arrow head-on.
The arrow’s immense force pushed through, almost piercing the dharmic image entirely, leaving it charred and devoid of its former might.
"Something’s wrong, everyone be careful!"
An elderly voice echoed through the Tree Realm.
