Evolving infinitely from ground zero

Otherwise, vitality would be lost in an instant, and one would perish on the spot.

But there was no other way, in order to survive, he had to choose to follow the Wood God and receive the Wood God's protection.

Otherwise, given the Water God's unforgiving and almost extreme style of conduct, even if he could survive today's great battle against the Wood God, the day the Water God fully recovered, he would also die at the hands of the Water God.

The key point was that dying at the hands of the Water God would still be a relatively good outcome.

The fear was that the Water God wouldn't grant a swift death and would instead torture traitors.

The Sea God had witnessed several instances of the Water God torturing enemies when he was under the Water God's command.

It was a torture both physical and spiritual.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

One that could make life worse than death.

Seeing it from a distance was already unbearable for the Sea God, who didn't have the courage to experience it firsthand.

He would rather perish immediately than fall into the Water God's hands and suffer such torture.

"Sea God, what are you doing!"

Across from him, Su Meixiao, who had also luckily escaped death, looked at the Sea God in fury mixed with confusion, questioning him.

She couldn't understand why the Sea God, who had risked his life to rescue her, would suddenly betray them.

The betrayal was without reason and without logic.

Before the Sea God could reply, the Wood God, who had successfully absorbed the Sea God, spoke up, "Because his fear of the Water God outweighs his obsession with you."

Hearing this explanation, Qi Qingmo and the other four were puzzled.

The Sea God clearly wasn't afraid of even the Wood God, so why would he fear the Water God, who was of the same order as the Wood God?

Was it a case of one creature subduing another?

The Sea God and the Water God were both aquatic beings, and then the Sea God was restrained by the Water God?

Qi Qingmo and the others' thoughts were racing.

"Boom—!"

Suddenly, an earth-shattering sound resonated.

Rooted at the center of the battlefield, the Wood God, in the form of a sky-reaching giant tree, rose slowly into the air under the gazes of Qi Qingmo and other powerhouses, towering into the skies and eclipsing the sun.

"I am going to the Southern Domain to resolve the Water God. I leave this place to you, just prevent them from leaving."

With no emotion, these words were dropped, and the Wood God shot out several thorny vines infused with Origin Force, tearing a huge rift in the sky and pulling its massive body swiftly through it.

In that instant he left,

plants on the battlefield began growing wildly.

Thick branches and dense leaves intertwined in every direction.

In just a moment, they formed a massive, impenetrable tree cage, trapping the remaining nine Mythical Level experts within, making it impossible for them to escape in a short time.

The remaining nine Mythical Level experts were divided into two groups.

Qi Qingmo, Su Meixiao, Sima Xuan, Xuanyuan Wanyu, and Elder Li formed one group.

The Flower God, Elder Tree, Sea God, and Lord of Silence were on the other side.

Among them, Qi Qingmo's group held an overwhelming advantage in strength.

But the Flower God's group held the home ground advantage.

This tree cage could continuously provide them with vitality from the Wood God.

As long as the tree cage stood, they could be undying.

Their only task now was to engage Qi Qingmo's group, preventing them from breaking the tree cage and heading to the Southern Domain to interfere with the Wood God dealing with the Water God.

...

Southern Domain.

City No. 36.

After nearly ten minutes of clearing the field, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan slaughtered all the Alien Races on the battlefield without leaving a single one.

Among them, Lin Zichen devoured a large amount of the Alien Races' Life Origin and Origin Force, successfully evolving to the legendary Fourth Order, and his strength increased substantially.

"Lin Zi, which city are we clearing next?"

After dealing with the last Alien Race on the battlefield, Shen Qinghan turned to ask Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen calmly said, "Go to City No. 35. The biological channel there also leads to Shanhai City. After we clean up all the cities connected to Shanhai City, we will move on to clear the cities linked to Nanjiang Province."

Shen Qinghan urged, "Then let's set off now."

"Okay."

Lin Zichen agreed, grabbed Shen Qinghan's slender waist, and flew toward City No. 35 at top speed.

Those who survived on the battlefield watched the childhood sweethearts leave.

Until now, they all still wore a daze on their faces, finding it very surreal.

At their most desperate moment, they had all fantasized about Earth's powerful beings coming to rescue them, saving them from this battlefield strewn with corpses.

What they hadn't expected was for the Earth's powerful beings who came to their rescue to be this pair of twenty-year-olds who were childhood sweethearts.

...

On the other side, en route to City No. 35.

In just a few seconds, Lin Zichen had already covered nearly a third of the distance with Shen Qinghan.

Just as Lin Zichen was about to speed up—

"Hssla!"

A sharp tearing sound suddenly came from above him.

At the moment the sound was heard, a huge rift appeared in the air, emanating abundant vitality that made fresh green sprouts appear across the entire sky.

Then, a sky-reaching giant tree that blotted out the sun drifted out from the rift, enveloping Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan below in shadow so that they couldn't see their hands in front of them.

Your journey continues on empire

Sun-Moon Sacred Land!

Upon seeing the sky-reaching giant tree, the words flashed through Lin Zichen's mind instantly.

Without hesitating for even a second, he burst forth his Qi-Blood and Spirit at the fastest speed to flee with Shen Qinghan.

The direction he fled was directly towards City No. 36, the closest.

He couldn't stay in the Origin Land any longer, Lin Zichen had to take Shen Qinghan back to Earth.

Earth had Domain Power that could suppress Alien Races.

And most importantly, there were more people on Earth.

With Domain Power suppression and the boost from being a Social Animal, Lin Zichen believed that with his own strength, he could hold his own against the Alien Races' Mythical Level experts, or even overpower them.

The phrase "even a mighty dragon can't crush a local snake" suited him perfectly, as the holder of the home ground advantage on Earth.

"Buzz... Buzz... Buzz!"

Just as Lin Zichen turned with Shen Qinghan to fly toward City No. 36 behind them, several urgent whizzing sounds suddenly arose.

Before Lin Zichen had the chance to dodge,

the next second, he and Shen Qinghan were entangled by several green thorny vines.

Then, the two of them were forcibly pulled in front of the sky-reaching giant tree with the vines binding them so they couldn't move.

"Hssla!"

A pair of gigantic eyes opened on the trunk of the sky-reaching giant tree, emitting an ancient and world-weary aura, staring intently at the two people before it.

Under the gaze of these gigantic eyes, Lin Zichen uncontrollably felt terror.

The tree before him exuded a sense of oppression thousands, if not millions, times stronger than the Night King.

This was not a typical Mythical Level creature.

Even, it was a creature above the Mythical Level.

The Wood God!

The sky-reaching giant tree before his eyes was the primordial Wood God of Sun-Moon Sacred Land!

It was one of the oldest Five Elements Gods in the Origin Land!

An existence of the same order as the Water God!

Realizing this, Lin Zichen's heart sank to the abyss.

At the Palace of Water God, he had personally witnessed the strength of the Water God.

The Water God had managed to kill the Mythical Level Night King with ease even before fully recovering.

And the Wood God, possessing the same order of strength as the Water God, would definitely be on the same level.

Lin Zichen knew very well that in the face of such a powerful existence, he had no chance of escape.

Now, he could only hope that the being wasn't coveting his and Shen Qinghan's bodies to carry out Soul Possession.

"Water God, we meet again in good health."

The Wood God, with ancient and world-weary eyes, looked profoundly at Shen Qinghan before him and spoke.

Before Shen Qinghan had the chance to respond, it spoke again:

"Back then, you were the first to attempt the Five Elements Unification, scheming against the Metal God,"

The following part.

The Wood God arrived.

The sea turned into a forest.

Everyone, return to Earth and make a stand!

Earth has Domain Power suppression!

Easier to defend.

Earth is the biggest Abyss.

The Water God was a god from the Origin Land who, in its desire to absorb the other four gods for Five Elements Unification, failed, fled to Earth, died, and its legacy became Shen Qinghan's inheritance.
