The night wind suddenly stopped.
The giant tree that shaded the sun dropped tens of thousands of branches, and countless jade-like leaves emitted a faint radiance, forming an invisible barrier that completely divided heaven and earth.
Lin Yue's figure was like an illusion; the mont the green branches touched the ground, he had already vanished from the spot, trying to penetrate the void.
But when he appeared again, he had only penetrated to that invisible barrier and had not passed through it to leave.
The once invincible Sun Chasing Path now encountered an existence that it couldn't penetrate at all.
"Heaven and earth boundary?"
Lin Yue sowhat understood what this barrier was, frowning tightly.
He turned his head to look at the colossal tree supporting heaven and earth and murmured, "World Tree?"
"Hahaha, Your Highness need not try anymore."
Duanmu Yan, clad in a black robe, approached confidently mid-air and said, "Your Highness's path can penetrate even the void and truly is Heavenly Reversal, but this World Tree branch itself forms a realm. Unless Your Highness proves the Path, it is impossible to leave."
Lin Yue turned to look at him and slowly said, "The Demon Clan is actually willing to go this far? Even taking out a branch of the World Tree?"
Legend had it that the World Tree was a Divine treasure left by the Ancient Gods and later obtained by the Demon Clan to guard their Demon Country.
Undoubtedly, it was the treasure of the Demon Clan.
To actually use it against him?
"Grand elder sister, you indeed underestimated how much the Demon Clan values ..." Lin Yue couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
A complete World Tree, even a Proven Saint could not shake it.
If it was just a branch, although it would be difficult for a Proven Saint to sneak in, they could force their way through, but...
This small world ford by the World Tree branch was one with the branch itself; forcibly breaking through and destroying it would also lead to the branch's damage causing everything within this small world to descend into great destruction.
The destructive potential of this small world, below the level of Proven Saints, could perhaps only be survived by those specialists in life-saving transcendent activities.
Anyway, with his current strength, he definitely couldn't survive.
Of course...
If he chose to give up the Ultimate Path, harmonize on the spot, and beco a Saint, and then use the Flying Spirit Chasing Sun to preserve his life, he would be confident of surviving even if this small world collapsed.
"Your Highness also knows of the World Tree; that's great," Duanmu Yan said with a smile, "I sowhat underestimated Your Highness last ti. This ti, our Demon Clan has indeed shown enough sincerity. If Your Highness has any ans, feel free to try."
He was well aware of the marvels of the World Tree, hence suprely confident.
A complete World Tree world, even the ancestors of the Demon Clan could barely shake together.
As for other tunneling techniques to infiltrate, across the entire Demon Clan, only the Dream Demon Ancestor could enter using the Dream Path.
How marvelous is the Dream Path?
As long as there are beings in the world aware of the Dream Demon Ancestor's existence, the Dream Demon Ancestor could appear through the dreams of any creature's mind at any ti, and could even be resurrected from the dream world after being killed, as long as creatures rember the Dream Demon Ancestor.
Only such inconceivable thods could infiltrate a world ford by the World Tree.
Even if it's just one branch of the World Tree, its power is insufficient, but its level of mystery is considerable; at most, it can be forcibly destroyed, but it cannot be infiltrated.
"Let try freely? So confident?" Lin Yue narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Of course."
Duanmu Yan chuckled softly and then shouted, "Gentlen, co out!"
As his voice fell, rays of light bearing various path auras descended from above the giant tree.
Those were five beings, n and won, with terrifying aura that seed to belong to the Human Clan, but the fearso pressure spread wantonly, causing the Sinful Cultivators nearby to turn pale.
They were rely cultivators of the Four Symbols Heaven Barrier; they rarely even saw a Great Cultivator in their lives, let alone the legendary Saints.
If not because the Immortal Lord was a legendary Saint, they wouldn't willingly serve as servants.
And now...
To have six such beings, using such incredible thods, targeting one of their own?
The Seventeenth Prince?
The legendary Prince Xiahong?
The Sinful Cultivators couldn't help but turn towards Lin Yue; their hearts trembled, and they instinctively stepped back to avoid involvent.
In such a high-level conflict, they could not even escape, let alone intervene.
Inside the mansion, the aura of the Immortal Lord also completely receded, no longer maintaining the previous carefree, playful attitude; the whole person seed silent.
"How could it be the Seventeenth Prince?"
The voice inside the mansion was incredulous: "Duanmu Yan? Five Demon Saints?"
Just Duanmu Yan, with his Heavenly Reversal Saint capabilities, even as just an Avatar, he was no match; add five Proven Saints, and this lineup...could completely annihilate him!
"Five Demon Saints?"
Lin Yue also raised his eyebrows slightly, surprised.
Although he had expected the Demon Clan to take more drastic asures this ti, he hadn't anticipated...for dealing with him, not a Harmonizer yet, not only did they bring out the terrifying treasure of the World Tree branch, but also five more Demon Saints?
That was rather outrageous, wasn't it?
They were treating him as if he were a Saint.
Moreover...
Lin Yue had displayed strength from the Heavenly Reversal Path in the Ancestor Hall years ago, instantly decapitating a Saint; the Demon Clan could not have missed this intelligence.
They must have estimated his strength and, having experienced previous failures, were surely evaluating him at an even higher level!
