Chapter 1515: Chapter 1515: Familiar Scenes

Yang Yan’s expression was shaken; he was about to inquire closely but did not expect the elder to have already vanished.

He stood around the Sea of Space-Time for a moment, shook his head with a sigh, then turned to leave, continuing on his journey.

In the Sea of Space-Time, the Space-Time Immortal Monarch stood afar, watching Yang Yan’s back, sighing softly, "In this lifetime, can you truly achieve eternity, or are you not him?"

At this moment, Yang Yan slowly approached the World Tree.

The World Tree seemed like a towering building, standing there as if eternal.

Yang Yan constantly pierced through space, yet it seemed he did not get closer by a fraction.

Yang Yan steadied his mind, his eyes shining with determination, continuing to break through the spatial barriers, moving towards the World Tree.

It is unknown how long he walked, but Yang Yan encountered many dangers.

Luckily, none posed a life-threatening crisis, allowing Yang Yan to steadily reach the vicinity of the World Tree.

Only then did Yang Yan discover that it seemed not like a World Tree, but rather a Demon Tree.

Near the battlefield of the World Tree, the dangling branches swayed with corpses of Ancient Gods and Demons.

This scene felt somewhat familiar.

Back on the Ghost Warship, Yang Yan had seen similar scenes.

However, by comparison, it was like a firefly to a bright moon, entirely incomparable.

Moreover, around it were colossal corpses like the Ancient Divine Mountain, piled up at the roots of the World Tree.

Those corpses were already withered, as if their whole essence had been absorbed by the World Tree.

Yang Yan hesitated a bit, but to confirm some things, he gritted his teeth and walked towards the World Tree.

Yang Yan spent a few more days, finally reaching beneath the World Tree.

At this moment, Yang Yan faced the World Tree as a speck of dust facing the vast ocean.

He stood there in shock, uttering heartfelt amazement.

This World Tree was surprisingly so massive.

Most weirdly, though the World Tree was clearly withered, Yang Yan felt a strong Life Force from it.

A trace of hesitation flashed in Yang Yan’s eyes, which immediately turned into unwavering resolve, pressing a hand on the World Tree.

Yet after a moment, the World Tree showed no response.

Yang Yan’s mind also did not stir; unlike before, no images appeared in his mind.

Yang Yan was a bit puzzled, but he didn’t cease his effort, continuing to focus and inject Spiritual Power into the World Tree.

However, after struggling for a while, the World Tree still showed no reaction.

Still, Yang Yan did not stop; he seemed determined not to stop until exhausting all his inner power.

Unknown to Yang Yan, a withered corpse on the unseen part of the World Tree suddenly moved, its sword at the waist slightly trembled, emitting soft whispers.

With Yang Yan continuously infusing Spiritual Power, this corpse slowly opened its eyes.

There was intense killing intent in his eyes, yet a trace of clarity flickered unintentionally.

Gradually, his sword unsheathed, and a Sword Intent like opening heaven and earth frenziedly condensed on it.

Unfortunately, the World Tree was too immense, and its aura continuously suppressed Yang Yan’s nerves, coupled with his wholehearted focus on refining his Spiritual Power into it, he failed to notice.

Suddenly, the man’s Sword Aura flew out, roaring towards Yang Yan.

The sword light was extremely sharp, containing incredibly strong Sword Intent.

Though Sword Qi soared to the sky, the surrounding space seemed unchanged.

It seemed as if it passed through another space, heading straight for Yang Yan.

Before it even approached, a domineering Sword Intent spread across the heavens, shrouding down.

Instantly, it closed in on Yang Yan, sealing all his retreats.

Only then did Yang Yan react.

Yang Yan’s face changed; he raised both hands, the World-Ending Demon Spear appeared out of thin air, emitting a golden shield in front of him.

At the same time, Yang Yan activated Meteor Fall’s second stage—Thousand Stars Fall.

Boom-boom-boom—

The earth trembled, illusions of planets condensed before him.

Riiiip—

It sounded like fabric tearing; those planets were in an instant split in half by terrifying Sword Qi.

Clang!

Following was a crisp sound of gold and iron clashing, the Sword Aura shimmering, tearing through the golden shield, crashing fiercely on the World-Ending Demon Spear.

Yang Yan felt an irresistible mighty force strike, his heart swayed instantly.

His eyes sharpened, forcibly driving his physical strength to slightly offset the World-Ending Demon Spear.

Swish—

The Sword Aura instantaneously pierced the battlefield several feet behind Yang Yan.

In an instant, the earth shattered, revealing a bottomless black hole.

The void before Yang Yan fluctuated, and the man stepped out.

He didn’t strike again, hoarsely saying, "The World Tree cannot be violated; dying by my Broken Sword is sufficient to rest in peace."

As his words fell, a glow emanated from the Broken Sword in his hand.

Countless fine Sword Aura enveloped Yang Yan.

Yang Yan coldly shouted, immediately using Space Rules and Gravity Rule, enhancing Meteor Fall—Thousand Stars Fall, forming a Composite Barrier guarding around him.

Yet, those tiny Sword Qi were too many, seemingly endless, fundamentally unable to be completely blocked.

At this moment, the man with Broken Sword, bathed in his released Sword Qi, transformed into black lightning charging at Yang Yan.

Thunderous rumblings echoed; Yang Yan struggled against it with the World-Ending Demon Spear while rapidly retreating.

But during the retreat, the boundless Sword Aura persisted relentlessly, madly piercing towards Yang Yan.

If it were ordinary sword light, it would be fine.

However, this sword light contained an unparalleled will, extremely dangerous to Yang Yan.

Now, the man with Broken Sword pressed the advantage, his killing moves fiercely changed.

Sparklings of Magpie Feather appeared, flashing sword aura.

For a moment, the void continually collapsed, seemingly unable to withstand the sharp Sword Qi.

Yang Yan sensed extremely dangerous aura from it.

With no hesitation, he urgently employed Military Technique—Life Destruction, trying to counter it.

Unfortunately, those Magpie Feathers seemed non-existent, or maybe they weren’t in the same dimension, completely unreachable.

Suddenly, those Magpie Feathers moved, piercing through Yang Yan’s body instantly.

Blood spattered, yet Yang Yan couldn’t retreat, simply because the countless tiny Sword Aura still existed.

Yang Yan urgently activated Blood Qi, using the terrifying restorative ability of his Flawless Divine Body to heal himself quickly.

Luckily those Magpie Feathers seemed exhausted, blinking momentarily then vanishing into the void.

However, behind the man with Broken Sword, a colossal phantom appeared, stepping on stars, holding a Divine Sword, crowned in gold.

Yang Yan’s mind jumped.

This phantom closely resembled the cultivator encountered in an illusion realm at the Land of Mist within Vast Sea.
