Chapter 371 Confrontation
Chapter 371 Confrontation
Chapter 371 Standoff
Knowing how troublesome Ling Guan was, and considering that the other party possessed the powerful strength of the Sacred Tree, Ye Ru felt a deep sense of worry.
If this were an outsider, two Grand Secretaries would be at a disadvantage against one Great Confucian Scholar, but they could still manage to hold their own.
However, things are different here. The opponent possesses the Sacred Ancient Tree, which can continuously supply them with Sacred Power for a long time. Furthermore, they have the flames of the demon race, which can burn away their essence. This undoubtedly adds some difficulties for them.
"Gentlemen, you two should defend against him first. Leave the task of detoxifying this Sacred Ancient Tree to me."
Taking a deep breath, Ye Ru's eyes showed a hint of determination, and his expression became increasingly solemn.
"Okay, I'll help you."
The guardian spirit nodded, then opened its mouth wide, and its body suddenly swelled up.
In an instant, the guardian spirit transformed into a giant seven-colored deer, its entire body shimmering with seven-colored light.
"Attacking both of them at once?"
Ling Guan and Wen Hetu clashed, and Ling Guan was forced to retreat a moment to either side. His eyes were filled with a coldness as he sneered.
"Today I will certainly cleanse my teacher's house!"
Wen Hetu's face was full of anger, his gaze fixed on Ling Guan, and he shouted sharply.
"I'm just afraid you can't handle it!"
Ling Guan, wielding the demon race's black flames, once again fiercely blasted towards the man and the deer.
"Phew, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we can't completely remove the toxins from this Sacred Ancient Tree, we'll probably all die here."
Ye Ru took a deep breath, looked at the ancient sacred tree that was half green and half black, and murmured.
Long Shang and the others are still trapped elsewhere, and they are probably already doomed. If I don't put in more effort, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this ordeal.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ru held the medical book in his hands and began to recite it softly.
As the chanting resounded, a vibrant life force began to spread outwards, eventually transforming into countless green rays of light that flowed back into the ancient sacred tree.
Green light fell upon the ancient sacred tree, and the toxins within it transformed into wisps of black mist that began to rise.
"damn it!"
Seemingly sensing that the power of the Holy Path within his body was gradually weakening, Ling Guan's expression changed, and he immediately flew into a rage.
He knew that if the toxins in the Sacred Tree were removed, he would probably also disappear from this world.
This is something he absolutely cannot tolerate.
"Go to hell!"
The next moment, Ling Guan suddenly turned around, abandoning his attack on Wen Hetu and instead turning towards Ye Ru.
Seeing Ling Guan attacking him, Ye Ru's expression changed, but the golden protective shield around him made him feel a little more at ease.
clang!
A muffled thud resounded as Ling Guan's black flames collided with the protective shield and instantly dissipated into the void. This sight made Ling Guan's expression turn much uglier.
"Don't let him hit Ye Ru, intercept him quickly!"
When Wen Hetu saw Ling Guan turn his attack towards Ye Ru, his expression turned anxious, and he immediately shouted at the seven-colored deer.
"I know."
The seven-colored deer nodded, opened its mouth, and seven-colored light instantly condensed within it before it suddenly spewed it out.
The seven-colored light streaked through the air, and finally, with extremely powerful force, it swiftly blasted towards Ling Guan, who was attacking Ye Ru.
"Go away!"
Ling Guan let out a cold shout, and the black flame in his hand suddenly leaped up, finally transforming into a sky full of black flames that broke through the seven-colored light and roared towards the seven-colored deer and Wen Hetu.
"How can I say that I have no clothes, but I share the same robe with you..."
Seeing the black flames rapidly attacking him, Wen Hetu slowly chanted, and then two armors appeared simultaneously beside him and his guardian spirit.
The black flames devoured the seven-colored light, dimming slightly before colliding with the armor once more.
Although the poem was not of a very high level, it became indestructible under Wen Hetu's influence.
Through the gap, Ye Ru could also see the hardness of the armor. He knew that once one reached the level of a Grand Scholar, what one possessed was not simply an increase in talent, but a deeper understanding of the Holy Path. The deeper one's understanding of the Holy Path, the more powerful one's talents would be. Even low-level talents could be performed at a high level, as was the case before him.
The black flames collided with the armor, and a powerful surge of holy energy suddenly erupted.
boom!
A powerful ripple of talent suddenly spread outwards, causing Wen Hetu and the other two to stagger back dozens of steps.
"A doctor's heart is one of benevolence..."
Seeing that the situation had temporarily stabilized, Ye Ru breathed a sigh of relief and then began chanting again.
Two battle groups were engaged in combat. One group was Ye Ru healing the Sacred Ancient Tree, while the other was Wen Hetu and Ling Guan fighting. While the latter was putting up a difficult fight, Ye Ru was also focused on expelling the toxins from the ancient tree.
boom!
"what!"
Unfortunately, even with the two Grand Scholars joining forces, they were unable to withstand Ling Guan. As soon as the black flames touched Wen Hetu's arm, the arm began to hiss as if hot oil had met water. Then, countless white mists rose up, and the entire arm turned to ashes.
Pain assaulted Wen Hetu's mind, causing him to grit his teeth involuntarily. Although he was a spirit, he could still feel this kind of mental pain.
"Are you OK?"
The seven-colored deer turned its head and spoke to Wen Hetu, its eyes revealing a hint of solemnity.
Unexpectedly, the opponent possessed such formidable talent and holy power. If Ye Ru could not expel all the poison from the ancient holy tree within half an hour, there would be no way to defeat the opponent.
"We need to go faster."
Seeing Wen Hetu and the others fail, Ye Ru's expression changed immediately. He then hurriedly began to recite the "Qing Nang Zi Shu" (Book of the Green Bag), and at the same time, he also began to slowly activate his Cloud and Water Zen Mind.
"Let me tell you, it's no use. Go to the underworld and carry on your Confucian spirit..."
Ling Guan smiled slightly at him, then stomped his foot hard, releasing countless black mists directly from the ancient sacred tree.
As the black mist condensed, a terrifying aura began to spread out, eventually transforming into a massive ball of black flame.
This black flame is much more powerful than before. If it touches Wen Hetu and the other person, they will probably be burned to ashes instantly.
"Go."
Ling Guan sneered, and with a sudden flick of his hand, the black flames, carrying immense power, swept towards the two of them.
The black flames grew larger and larger in their pupils, and the latter knew that there was no way to avoid it this time. He gritted his teeth and tried to use all his energy to defeat it.
However, just then, the black flames suddenly stopped as they were about to reach Wen Hetu and the other person, and then began to dissipate into the void little by little.
