Chapter 244: God Of War Mode (1)
"Eternal Celestial Sword Art [2nd Form]!"
"Whoosh~…"
The Pine Ghost Tree slammed its branches onto the ground, sending shockwaves through the air. The force of the impact caused the ground to tremble beneath Chen Tian\'s feet, adding to the intensity of the moment.
Chen Tian had underestimated the power of the Pine Ghost Tree at the 2nd Stage Foundation Establishment level.
Even his strongest move wasn\'t effective against the Pine Ghost Tree. As the dust settled, Chen Tian realized that he had no choice but to run.
"Heavenly Lightning Steps [2nd Step]!"
Lightning crackled around Chen Tian\'s feet as he swiftly jumped through the forest, dodging the Pine Ghost Tree\'s relentless attacks.
"KHAAAAAAA!!!"
Seeing the bug that dared to attack him escape, the tree let out a furious roar, shaking the ground once again, and started following Chen Tian in hot pursuit.
The Pine Ghost Tree wasn\'t fast, but it made up for its lack of speed with its immense size and strength.
Its branches thrashed through the forest, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
Chen Tian knew that he couldn\'t outrun the Pine Ghost Tree forever, so he had to come up with a plan quickly.
He scanned his surroundings, searching for any possible route to escape The Pine Ghost Tree\'s attacks.
With each step, a thundering boom echoed through the forest, shaking the trees and sending birds flying from their perches.
The Pine Ghost Tree\'s branches thrashed wildly, its enraged howls piercing the air.
Chen Tian\'s heart raced as he pushed himself to his limits, feeling the adrenaline coursing through his veins.
He knew that if one of The Pine Ghost Tree\'s attacks landed on him, he would be seriously injured.
"Bang~!"
"Bang~!"
"Screw your sister!" Chen Tian roared as he tried to dodge another powerful strike from the Pine Ghost Tree. Sweat dripped down his face, mixing with the dirt and leaves that clung to his skin.
As he continued to dodge its attacks, an idea sparked in his mind.
"Let\'s see if you can handle some of this," Chen Tian muttered to himself.
Spotting a narrow gap between two large rocks, Chen Tian made a split-second decision and dove into it, narrowly avoiding another strike from the Pine Ghost Tree.
With lightning speed, Chen Tian emerged from the other side of the gap, his body surrounded by crackling electricity.
"CRACK~~!" The Pine Ghost Tree let out an ear-piercing screech as it realized that Chen Tian wanted to escape.
A green power surged from the tree; several branches extended and started moving violently.
The Pine Ghost Tree started transforming, its branches elongating and twisting into menacing shapes.
In the middle, a face-like beast with sharp fangs and glowing yellow eyes.
"KHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"
«The Pine Ghost Tree»
A terrifying howl echoed through the forest as the Pine Ghost Tree opened its jaws wide, revealing rows upon rows of jagged teeth.
A dark energy emanated from the creature, causing the surrounding air to grow heavy and suffocating.
The woman watching had a serious expression on her beautiful face.
"Brat, be careful!" The woman sent a sound transmission to Chen Tian, indicating her strong cultivation.
"Who!" Chen Tian cried out in surprise as he heard the sound of a woman inside his head.
He looked around, trying to locate the source of the mysterious sound, but he didn\'t see anyone.
"Brat behind you, dodge!!"
The woman\'s voice continued to echo in his mind, urging him to dodge.
Confusion and fear mingled in Chen Tian\'s thoughts as he struggled to comprehend what was happening.
"Heavenly Lightning Steps [2nd Step]!"
Lightning crackled around Chen Tian\'s feet as he swiftly evaded several meters from the gap between two large rocks.
|BOOOOMMM~~~!!!|
A huge explosion erupted behind him, shaking the ground and sending debris flying in all directions.
Chen Tian turned around to see that the rocks he had just dodged between were now reduced to rubble.
The realization hit him that if he hadn\'t listened to the woman\'s warning, he would have been crushed under the weight of those rocks.
"KHAAAAAA!!!"
The Pine Ghost Tree emerged from the wreckage, its form completely different from before. Its branches stretched out like long, gnarled arms, a black energy emanating from its twisted bark.
Chen Tian could feel a wave of malevolence emanating from the Pine Ghost Tree.
"Shit! Its strength is now at the 3rd stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm!" Chen Tian immediately felt the blood drain from his face as he realized the magnitude of the situation.
Vines and branches reached out towards him with a speed that he couldn\'t keep up with.
"Be careful!" The woman wanted to protect Chen Tian, but the distance between them was too great.
"Damn it!" Chen Tian used his sword to block the incoming vines and branches, even if his speed wasn\'t as fast as The Pine Ghost Tree; his years of cultivating weren\'t for nothing.
|Bang~!!|
"Aghh!"
Chen Tian was thrown backward by the impact, crashing into a nearby tree.
The sword in his hand was knocked out of his grasp and clattered to the ground.
Pain radiated through his body as he struggled to stand up.
"Damn it, this kind of attack is too powerful," Chen Tian muttered to himself. His current body and cultivation weren\'t the opponents of a Third Stage Foundation Establishment Realm Beast.
"No! I need to help him!" The woman desperately wanted to help Chen Tian; she couldn\'t let him die here; he was her only hope to escape from this place!
"Wooshhhh~!"
Several branches formed into a spear-like shape and shot toward Chen Tian.
"Oh no!" Chen Tian\'s reaction wasn\'t that quick because of the attack he had just endured.
"Eternal Celestial Sword Art [2nd Form]"
"Sword Aura [5]"
"Eternal Celestial Sword Art [2nd Form]"
Two swords formed behind Chen Tian and shot toward the incoming branches, colliding with them in a fierce clash.
Then two new sword forms appeared behind Chen Tian\'s hands, glowing with a blinding light.
Chen Tian used the sword as a way to destroy the branches that were attacking him. With swift and precise movements, he used Heavenly Lightning Steps [2nd Step] and tried to avoid being in the same position as before.
Chen Tian was in a bad spot; none of his attacks had caused any damage to The Pine Ghost Tree.
He needed to come up with a new strategy quickly.
He moved right and left, trying to keep himself outside the range of the Pine Ghost Tree.
"Huh!"
A vine suddenly wrapped itself around Chen Tian\'s right foot. It constricted tightly, causing him to stumble and lose his balance.
"Shit!"
Two other vines shot out from the ground and wrapped around Chen Tian\'s wrists, immobilizing him completely.
"From where did these vines come from?" Chen Tian wondered as he struggled against his restraints.
The Pine Ghost Tree\'s body was emitting a green glow as nature\'s energy surged through its veins.
Chen Tian realized that the Pine Ghost Tree was controlling the vines, using them to trap and immobilize its opponents.
In a desperate attempt to free himself, Chen Tian focused his energy and channeled it into his palms.
With a burst of strength, he unleashed a powerful wave of fire.
To his surprise, even using his fire law, the vines didn\'t burn or wither away. They seemed to be unaffected by the intense flames, as if they were impervious to any form of heat. Chen Tian\'s heart sank as he realized that it didn\'t work.
"Fuck!"
"KHAAAAAAAA!!!"
The Pine Ghost Tree moved swiftly toward Chen Tian, its branches extending and wanting to pierce him.
"Fuck your ancestors! I won\'t die here!" Chen Tian shouted in rage.
