Chapter 2212: Chapter 2298: Ancient Divine Worm Reinforcements

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor frantically drove the Wind and Thunder Power, trying to refine the Abyss Divine Tree.

However, Chen Nan could feel that the Abyss Divine Tree was constantly receiving power from within the Void Illusion Realm World. That power wasn’t vast, but it was enough to block the Divine Power of the Wind and Thunder Ancestor.

"Heh heh, this ancestor wants to see how long this Divine Tree can hold out." A cold light flashed in the Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s eyes as his power surged a bit more, continuing to clash against the Abyss Divine Tree’s strength.

Within a hundred miles, the Heavenly Position elders were all forced to lie prone on the ground by the power spilling out from the clash between the two, completely unable to move.

"The Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s strength is transcendent and sacred. The Abyss Divine Tree hasn’t fully awakened its power yet, I don’t know how long it can last." Haotian Tower suddenly spoke.

"Then what do we do?" Chen Nan was extremely nervous about the Abyss Divine Tree as well. Even though he got this Divine Tree by accident from the Abyss Prison Warden back then, it had followed him for so long—how could a human be completely heartless?

What’s more, the Abyss Divine Tree had saved him countless times.

"Right now we can only leave it to Heaven. Although Grandpa Small Tower does have ways to deal with the Wind and Thunder Ancestor, unless absolutely necessary we should avoid using them, because it might stir up even bigger trouble."

Haotian Tower let out a sigh. If only Chen Nan had absorbed enough Power of Incense to be promoted to the Supreme King Realm, then even someone like the Wind and Thunder Ancestor—whose strength was peerlessly terrifying among the Five Great Sects—wouldn’t even be worth his notice.

In the distance, Ye Yiyi, Su Qingqing, Zhao Han, Su Dieyi, the Black Feathered Chicken were all lying prone on the ground one by one. Even Flower Auntie wasn’t spared either; her face was ugly as she struggled to walk over to Chen Nan’s group, but in the end her Divine Power ran dry.

Chen Nan tried several times to struggle up, wanting to at least use the tiniest shred of his strength to help the Abyss Divine Tree.

But that suppression was too terrifying. As soon as he lifted his arm, it was forced back down and snapped—he simply had no power to resist.

"Chen Nan, give it up. Our Fenglei Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, the Wind and Thunder Ancestor, is the strongest among the Five Sects’ Sect Masters. He’s been famous far longer than the age of the Lord of Corpse Control. You really think... a mere ant like you can overturn the game?"

Yun Zhongzi spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of his lips, glaring at Chen Nan with hatred. Normally he could do everything he could to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, but at a moment like this he could no longer hold back—he’d been bottling it up for too long.

Once the Pavilion Master made a move, everyone on Chen Nan’s side suffered miserably. That made him feel extremely satisfied.

"Yo... you old bastard, who lives and who dies is still up in the air. The Abyss Divine Tree has never lost from the Four Extremes World to the Outer Domain, then to the Hundred Clan Domain. Just relying on you old undying Sect Master, and you think you can refine it? What a ridiculous dream!"

A look of disdain flashed through Chen Nan’s eyes as he let out a cold snort.

However, that single sentence exhausted all the strength of his whole life. His body slumped, and even the strength to raise his head finally vanished without a trace.

"Chen Nan... Chen Nan, brat, you have to hang on. The Abyss Divine Tree’s foundation lies within your Void Illusion Realm World—you absolutely can’t die. As long as you don’t die, that Void Illusion Realm contains all sorts of mysteries that can help it hold out for a longer time. Maybe a turning point will appear."

Haotian Tower suddenly popped out a sentence, reminding Chen Nan.

"What, Small Tower, you’re saying there might be a turning point?" Chen Nan asked in surprise and delight.

"The Abyss Divine Tree is an incomparably powerful existence. Its Qi Fortune is so deep it’s far beyond what we can imagine. Grandpa Small Tower isn’t inferior to it, but this Divine Tree truly has its own terrifying aspects. Any existence with such mighty Qi Fortune is not so easily suppressed by a mere mortal."

Haotian Tower’s tower body lightly spun in the Void, and all the oppressive force bearing down on it was dispersed.

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor saw this scene, and a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes. "Tower... what sort of existence are you, to actually dissolve my suppression?"

Haotian Tower ignored him.

Haotian Tower landed on one of the branches of the Abyss Divine Tree.

Immediately, countless withered yellow twigs wrapped around it completely.

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor saw this and stretched out his hand, wanting to stop it. But just as his hand extended, it was instantly entangled by the Abyss Divine Tree’s twigs and couldn’t reach out.

The branches wrapping Haotian Tower began to emit vigorous life force.

"Chen Nan, this is all Grandpa Small Tower can do—help the Abyss Divine Tree hold on a bit longer..."

Light flashed across Haotian Tower, and those branches started to change, turning green. Streams of power spread toward the Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s face.

The golden runes floating over the Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s face began to distort one after another, crushed by the branches and forced into the flesh of his skull.

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s face turned pale, his body trembling slightly.

"Damn it, damn it, in ten thousand years this ancestor has never suffered such humiliation. Today I’ll grind all of you to dust..."

The Wind and Thunder Power around his body suddenly erupted, violently blasting out into the surrounding space.

"Boom!"

Chen Nan felt as if a giant boulder slammed into his body, sending him flying.

The elders of the Five Great Sects were also not spared, each of them spitting blood as they were blown away.

It had already been over a thousand years since they last suffered the Wind and Thunder Ancestor’s wrath.

Now, because of Chen Nan’s group, they were hit as innocent bystanders. Every gaze they cast at Chen Nan was full of anger.

"What... what are you staring at? Believe it or not, this old lady will dig out every one of your eyeballs...?"

Flower Auntie spewed a mouthful of blood, shouting arrogantly.

The thing she hated most was people staring at her for no reason.

"Ugh..."

One elder had already been shaken to the verge of vomiting blood. Now, seeing Flower Auntie’s unbelievably ugly face, he just couldn’t hold it back and threw up on the spot.

"Courting death, is this young lady really that ugly?" Flower Auntie was no longer at the center of the suppression and had just been blasted a bit farther away, so moving wasn’t as difficult. With one slap, she sent that elder flying.

Time passed, second by second.

An hour.

A day.

Five days slipped by.

This entire region seemed to have fallen into a frozen state of time. Everyone lay prone in the Void, recuperating.

The clash between the Wind and Thunder Ancestor and the Abyss Divine Tree still continued, but the light on the Abyss Divine Tree and on Haotian Tower’s body had both grown dim.

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor stood in the Void, constantly absorbing Wind and Thunder Power. The energy he consumed was quickly replenished, making him even more arrogant.

"Just wait. Within three days, this ancestor will definitely refine you, Divine Tree. Following this ancestor is far better than being stuck inside the body of such an ant."

The Wind and Thunder Ancestor didn’t know about the World Laws of Chen Nan’s Void Illusion Realm World. He thought the Abyss Divine Tree was growing inside Chen Nan’s Sea of Consciousness.

The Abyss Divine Tree could grow anywhere.

"Three days..." Chen Nan’s lips were so dry they had cracked into countless splits.

Blood seeped from those cracks, and his whole body was fissured like dried earth. Under the ravages of the Wind and Thunder Power, Chen Nan was in an extremely miserable state.

His eyelids drooped. Just then, a familiar aura suddenly came from the Void, and doubt flashed in Chen Nan’s eyes.

"Blood-colored Insect..." Chen Nan muttered to himself. The Blood-colored Insect and the Abyss Divine Tree had once coexisted for a long time in his Sea of Consciousness, so he was extremely familiar with the Blood-colored Insect’s aura.

Later he’d learned that the Blood-colored Insect was an Ancient Divine Worm, an incomparably mysterious and powerful existence. Back in Wanxiang City, Xiang Shisan had been killed by that Ancient Divine Worm—Chen Nan remembered it clearly. It was just that the worm had disappeared afterward.

It came back!
