Chapter 2520: Stalemate
nt of me suddenly doubled in size and radiated intense heat."It's really good!"Ye Bufan exclaimed in admiration, then flicked his finger, sending a wisp of crimson flame into the cauldron.(To be conti...As the saying goes, "one thing overcomes another." Ye Bufan's ice wall proved far more effective than Jiang Fangzhou's sword, completely stopping the flow of tree sap.
On the other side, Huā Fēi Xuě's flying flower barrier also took effect, blocking the splashed liquid.
But he also suffered losses, with nearly half of the petals in his hand gone, and his protective range was immediately reduced significantly.
At the same time, Yiruo Xiang's piano music sounded again. The trees that had lost their sap did not have much defensive ability and were soon blown into a flurry of wood chips.
This offensive was resolved quickly. Ye Bufan glanced at Jiang Fangzhou beside him and couldn't help but laugh.
This guy is now covered in branches from head to toe, as if a painter on Earth had been splashed with a bucket of paint and stood still.
His divine sense scanned the area, finding that the sap was simply viscous and not poisonous. Two water balls were thrown, cleaning him off entirely.
"Bah! Damn it, what in the world is that thing"
Jiang Fangzhou regained his mobility and sputtered several times.
"You're still too inexperienced. You can't just brute force your way through this kind of thing," Ye Bufan said.
By the time they reached the seventh level, he continued to bring everyone with him in order to give them more opportunities for refinement and broadening their horizons.
"I understand, Ye Ge."
Jiang Fangzhou nodded repeatedly.
And just then, another group of trees came rushing over. This time they were different from any before; they were bare and black, like iron trees freshly forged.
"This time, I won't believe I can't beat a tree!"
Jiang Fangzhou let out a loud shout and charged forward, his sword slashing towards the tree at the front of the line.
"Ding!"
The sword, when it struck the branch, produced a clashing metallic sound and was then flung high into the air, while the branch remained unscathed.
"Holy crap, is this guy really made of iron"
Jiang Fangzhou was shocked, and at this moment, several branches directly whipped towards him.
He hurriedly swung his sword to meet the attack, but the other party's strength was surprisingly great, their attacks no less powerful than those of a Void Core expert. They sent him flying backward with a single blow.
Now Jiang Fangzhou's face was filled with embarrassment, he didn't expect to be defeated by a tree.
At this moment, Yi Luo Xiang and Leng Qing Qiu simultaneously moved. One plucked the strings of her qin, while the other wielded her sword, barely managing to hold off the onslaught.
Lu Xue Man frowned: "This isn't working. There are simply too many trees over there. If we keep fighting like this, we'll lose eventually."
Nalan Yuji said, "What should we do then Should we take the initiative to attack But there are too many monsters. We're probably not a match for them if we charge in."
"You're right, we need to be proactive. But there's no need to charge in headfirst, I'll take the lead!"
Ye Bufan spoke, his wrist flipping as the Tian Lei Zhu soared into the air. Thunder rumbled, accompanied by countless dense and crisscrossing lightning bolts, making it a formidable sight.
"What is this"
Hua Fei Xue was holding off the iron trees over here. Although she could barely cope, it was very difficult and extremely draining.
At this moment, seeing the Heavenly Thunder Pearl ascend to the heavens, the three of them all displayed expressions of astonishment.
Hua Xieyu's face was filled with shock: "This little guy actually has a divine artifact, and it's of the thunder attribute!"
Hua Ru Yu Jiao Mei said: “Little brother, you truly live up to my expectations. You always manage to surprise me!”
Ye Bufan ignored their reactions and, controlling the Tianlei Pearl, sent down bolts of lightning. They were dense and numerous, like a rain of thunderbolts.
"Boom boom..."
With a deafening roar, a bolt of blue lightning, as thick as an adult's thigh, struck a metal tree.
Only a sound of cracking was heard, and the iron tree, which had been impervious to swords and blades, was instantly reduced to nothingness by the lightning.
The other directions were the same. The lightning arcs fired by the Heaven Thunder Orb were all hits, quickly destroying hundreds of iron trees.
"This baby is so awesome!"
Huā Fēi Xuě put away her petals and looked at the Tiānléizhū in mid-air, her eyes filled with envy.
Jiang Fangzhou said excitedly: "Brother Ye, this treasure is really amazing. I said directly chop all those tree monsters to death."
Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. His divine sense was suppressed, and he could only control within a radius of a hundred meters.
Furthermore, the power of the Heavenly Thunder Bead is inversely proportional to the distance. Once it's too far away, its power diminishes sharply. Moreover, the contained thunderous energy has a limit and cannot destroy so many plants.
Although the attack was impressive, the plants charging into battle were mindless. Under the command of the Venus Flytrap, they launched another assault soon after.
This time it was a strange and peculiar tree, covered with all sorts of vines.
Ye Bufan controlled the Tianlei Orb and quickly destroyed all the trees that rushed over.
On the other hand, dealing with the Hua Jian Pai was not so straightforward. After fighting for so long, Hua Fei Xue's true essence had been consumed to a great extent, and the petal-formed shield she had conjured was trembling under the onslaught of the trees.
"Brother, please help us quickly, or we won't be able to hold on any longer."
Hua Ru Yu immediately spoke up, asking for help.
Ye Bufan didn't hesitate, the Tianlei Bead immediately split into countless bolts of lightning and struck those trees, instantly annihilating them.
Anyway, we're all in the same boat now. Once the members of Huajian Pai are driven out of the Sky Tower by these plants, our side's strength will be greatly weakened.
Then began a tense stalemate. The Man-eating Tree continuously sent out trees to attack, while Ye Bufan's Sky Thunder Pearl relentlessly eliminated them.
After about half an hour, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
Although the Tian Lei Zhu is a divine artifact, and although it gathers countless lightning powers within, it can't withstand such consumption. The current power it possesses has weakened significantly compared to before.
If this continues, I'm afraid that in less than half an hour, all the thunder power will be completely depleted.
But the Man-eating Tree side was still an endless expanse of vegetation, stretching as far as the eye could see, seemingly inexhaustible.
Lu Xue Man also saw that something was wrong: "Xiao Fan, this won't work. We'll be worn down here sooner or later."
"I have an idea!"
Leng Qingqiu said, "As the saying goes, 'To catch a thief, you must first catch the king.' This is also true for these strange trees."
It's clear that the man-eating tree is the king of these plants. If we took it down, maybe we could resolve today's situation.
Ye Bufan frowned slightly: "But you also saw that guy's attack power, and with so many helpers, it doesn't seem easy to kill him."
"Don't know until we try!" Leng Qingqiu said, "The two of us cooperate, you cover me, and I'll take it down!"
"Well then!"
Ye Bufan hesitated for a moment, but still nodded in agreement.
If he makes a move, although his chances of success are higher, without the protection of the Sky Thunder Orb, the rest of them will immediately be subjected to a relentless barrage of attacks.
In this situation, Leng Qingqiu should charge headfirst while I provide support from behind.
Thinking of this, he controlled the Sky Thunder Orb to destroy hundreds of strange trees that had just pounced on him. At the same time, Leng Qingqiu moved, his whole body turning into a phantom, and the long sword in his hand stabbed towards the man-eating tree like lightning.only is there no sound at all, but it's incredibly comfortable."Alright, I'm really good now." Li Hongxiu exclaimed with excitement on her face. "This young brother's medical skills are truly amazing....
