Chapter 738 Mission Impossible
Xia's face turned pale, but his mouth kept answering uncontrollably.
"Yes, the votive candles."
As soon as he answered, he clenched his teeth and looked helpless.
Then Char accelerated and rushed towards Bestana.
Bestana also released a large number of roots towards Char, and suddenly she was no longer worried about the tree species in Char's body, and was ready to suppress Char directly with force.
"Now that the wishing candles have appeared, I don't need to worry about the tree heart anymore!"
Bestana suddenly stopped suppressing her emotions, and the only human features left began to twist like a demon.
As Char approached Bestana, he tried to dodge the roots attacking him from the front and back. When he couldn't avoid them, he used the power of the tree's heart to directly remove the roots that were touching him.
Even with the help of the tree heart's power, Char still suffered several wounds on his body because he was unable to react in time.
The skin around the wound becomes rough and brown, like tree bark.
But at this time, Char no longer had time to treat the wound and the contamination.
"Damn it, I originally wanted to use the wishing candles at this time, but I had to use them on that bearded guy in advance."
Without a trump card, Char had to rely on his perseverance and quick observation to dodge the roots that were piercing him and approach Bestana with difficulty.
But just when Char was about to touch Bestana, he was pierced in the thigh and lower abdomen by two roots attacking from the left and right, and he could no longer move forward.
Xia was helpless. He could already feel the roots that had pierced his lower abdomen searching for the tree seeds in his soul. If he let them take the tree seeds away, he would no longer have the ability to resist.
And from the look on Bestana's face just now, it was obvious that she no longer cared much about the integrity of the tree species.
She was determined to take out the tree seeds even if it meant damaging them. She was probably waiting for Char to lose the protection of the tree seeds so that she could take away his wishing candle.
Without the protection of the tree species, it would be difficult for Char to resist Bestana's manipulation when she was on guard.
As a puppet, he will inevitably hand over the wishing candle uncontrollably.
"Absolutely not!" Thinking of this, Char's eyes were already red with anger, "The wishing candle is my last hope! No one can take it away from me!"
Char took one last look at the amber tooth in his hand, "I still can't touch her... but at this distance, it should be effective. Whatever, if I don't use it now, I'll have no chance!"
Char crushed the gray substance covering the white teeth with one hand, as easily as crushing the skin of a peanut.
Char didn't have time to think about what weapon Thor had given him before he crushed the white fang's outer shell.
And after he crushed the white fangs' outer shell, he completely lost the ability to think.
Therefore, he did not see that the originally crazy Bestana suddenly became extremely frightened and even hysterical after seeing the white fangs and feeling its breath.
“Anchor, Anchor!!!!”
Bestana stepped back sharply.
This was also her first time moving in the tree core space.
Hundreds of roots connected to her body were torn off during the movement.
The pain was so intense that it felt as if someone had reached into her body and broken her bones.
But even though she was enduring such terrible pain, Bestana still did not stop retreating.
At this point she had forgotten about the wishing candle and was only thinking about running.
Only when she retreated to the edge of the tree's core did Bestana have to stop.
But this pause also allowed her almost confused consciousness to stabilize a little.
Only then did she notice that the anchor point that had frightened her so much that her heart almost stopped beating had not been affected by the terrible black tide pollution.
At least she hasn't turned into a sculpture yet, and no flowers are growing out of every orifice in her body.
"The sealed anchor?"
There was still some weakness in her voice, a sound of having just survived a disaster.
After all, the current Bestana is not a true third-level cultivator, so she is more afraid of the black tide pollution than she was when she was alive.
However, because she did not directly touch the tooth, although she could still feel the horrific aura on it, she did not lose her mind like Char who directly touched the anchor point.
"Damn it!" After being extremely frightened, Bestana turned into extremely angry.
She swung her arms that had turned into roots violently, and pierced several roots into Char's body, almost turning him into a hornet's nest.
Then she pulled again, leaving a big hole in Char's stomach.
A brown seed, wrapped in roots, was carefully brought out of Char's stomach.
Bestana carefully avoided the teeth in Char's hand and prepared to take back the tree seeds first.
Only by taking back the tree seeds would she have enough strength to move Char and the damn anchor in his hand out of the tree's core space.
Only then did she dare to breathe a sigh of relief and slowly deal with Char.
But just when Bestana was about to absorb the tree seeds into her body again, something unexpected happened!
A silver shadow suddenly rushed to the tree at an extremely fast speed, like lightning, and grabbed the tree that was entangled by two roots.
Bestana didn't expect that there would be a spirit who would dare to snatch things from her at this time.
Instantly, more roots rushed towards the silver figure, as if they were determined to stab the thief into a puddle of mud! Although the silver figure was fast, it had to stay where it was in order to snatch the tree seeds.
When many roots were about to destroy the silver shadow, a smaller silver shadow suddenly emerged from the silver shadow's body.
What appeared this time was actually a silver metallic butterfly.
The butterfly flapped its wings, seemingly at a slow speed, but in an instant it entered Bestana's forehead.
Bestana, who was already exhausted, immediately closed her eyes and lowered her head as if she was asleep.
And those roots that were about to pierce the silver shadow all stopped.
【quick!】
Penny's voice rang in Herman's mind.
【knew!】
Hermann, dressed in silver, quickly took the opportunity to take out the tree seeds from the still roots.
The next second after he got the tree seeds, the roots around it suddenly moved again.
Bestana woke up in just a breath.
At the same time, the silver nightmare butterfly was directly shaken out of the body.
Seeing this, Hermann said nothing and directly merged the tree core.
"I'm going to... kill you!!!"
Bestana felt like she was being played, and all her previous emotions turned into endless rage.
As she roared, dense roots like a rainstorm stabbed at Hermann and Penny at the same time.
However, Hermann, who got the tree core, gained the ability to move in the tree core space like Char before.
His figure disappeared in an instant, and then he hid immediately like Char.
But Penny doesn't have the ability to teleport away.
But she was not afraid at all, and even laughed at Bestana.
"Hehe, the master was trying to make a deal with you, but you tried to kill him. You deserve to be the last one left here and turned into a puddle of mud!"
The sharp roots pierced the nightmare butterfly in rows, but after the whistling sound of the roots, the nightmare butterfly that was originally suspended in the air disappeared without a trace.
It was as if it had also obtained the tree seeds and possessed the ability to teleport in the space at the heart of the tree.
But there is only one tree species, how did it leave? For the first time, Bestana showed a puzzled and shocked expression. Could it be that the upside-down tree has been taken over by someone else?
Otherwise, how could so many things that she couldn't understand happen in just a few seconds? Confused and panicked, Bestana immediately turned around to look for Char, who had lost consciousness due to the contamination of the anchor point.
However, she discovered to her despair that Xia Ya was not here either!
In the pitch-black space, there was only a white tooth left, floating quietly.
"No!!!!!"
Bestana was almost crazy.
Although the anchor point is sealed, the pollution slowly emanating from it can still, with the blessing of time, turn the weak Bestana into... a pool of mud! "... Sacrifice..." Desperate Bestana could only think of this as the only solution.
She wanted to sacrifice the souls of everyone in the inner and outer cities of Archaoste and the surrounding towns to the Inverted Tree, and use the lives of all those who stepped on this land to support herself! "Ah!!!!"
A sharp whistle.
Invisible waves are transmitted throughout the earth.
One by one, brown branches that looked like centuries-old trees emerged from the ground, and then exploded instantly, emitting a large amount of black smoke and dust, carrying the scent of grass, from the inner city to the outer city, and finally even the surrounding towns were not spared.
Huge and continuous explosions suddenly resounded throughout the world!
I have finally resumed my previous update schedule, but I don’t know how long I can keep doing it.
