Chapter 837 - 452: What Lies Beyond the True God? (2)
Before leaving, the ancient tree with entwined roots spoke earnestly.
"Saint Master Han Xing, and a few Human Race friends, this old tree knows that my time is running short, maybe tomorrow, I will suddenly disappear."
"When that time comes, I will be erased just like those entities, even the traces of existence completely gone."
"But I don’t want these secrets to dissipate with me, so I choose to reveal everything to all of you."
"Saint Master Han Xing, I sincerely wish you success."
"To become the one who breaks the rules, as mentioned."
...
At this moment, Cheng Jianyong frowned and said, "Brother Xing, is what the ancient tree said true?"
"Is it really going to die?"
Han Xing shook his head, "I don’t know..."
It is precisely because of this unknown that evokes fear in people.
This was the first time they heard a sense of powerlessness from Han Xing’s mouth.
The ancient tree did not speak without aim, a month ago, when conversing with Han Xing, it had subtly hinted at this matter.
But back then, it didn’t dare to completely voice it.
And now, the ancient tree laid everything bare, possibly sensing its time is indeed running out.
Han Xing sighed, "Let’s not worry about the ancient tree, it is already a top demigod, one of the strongest in the Holy Spirit Realm."
"If even it can’t stop it, then we have no way too."
"What we can do is, as quickly as possible, enhance our strength."
The team members all nodded together.
Through the conversation with the ancient tree, Han Xing finally comprehended the reason for Hunter’s death.
Clearly, Hunter died in the final battle back then.
According to the ancient tree, Hunter’s power had already surpassed the Beast.
And what level of existence is the Beast?
That’s a True God!
Which means, Hunter’s power had reached above True God.
But what is the realm above True God, Han Xing simply didn’t know.
Even so powerful, Hunter perished in that battle.
Han Xing couldn’t help but ponder a question.
How many enemies did Hunter face on that day?
And how strong must his opponents have been?
However, the records concerning that day have entirely vanished from the Holy Spirit Realm.
Shen Yun too was contemplating the ancient tree’s words from the side.
He seemed to think of something, suddenly saying, "Brother Xing, then it means, the enemies Hunter faced back then were likely those Divine Spirits who left the Holy Spirit Realm during the Age of Ten Thousand Gods?"
Cheng Jianyong seemed puzzled, "Xiaoyunzi, how do you know?"
Shen Yun rolled his eyes at him, saying, "Did you not hear what the old tree said? Rules come into the world, cannot be stopped."
"Who holds the rules, of course, it’s those Divine Spirits."
"Those departing Divine Spirits might collectively return to the Holy Spirit Realm, representing the coming of rules."
"For some reason, Hunter couldn’t allow their return, hence a great battle ensued."
"It means Hunter single-handedly carried the mission of the entire Holy Spirit Realm, ambushing that group of Divine Spirits in the Void!"
After Shen Yun finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought publicly.
However, Han Xing at this moment felt somewhat different.
He recalled the Blood Tide period.
Also, Hunter alone, at the cost of his life, took that Evil God.
This man truly...
Han Xing couldn’t express with words.
Perhaps, Hunter is just such a person, silently bearing everything, even saving the world is done quietly behind the scenes.
"Alas..."
"Shouldn’t have listened to the old tree so much, damn it, now I’m somewhat lacking confidence."
"Such a powerful being like Hunter died, how am I supposed to fight?"
The team members detected a hint of powerlessness in Han Xing’s words.
But they were right.
Initially, they only wanted to find the ancient tree, seeking a stable, speedy way to raise the Divine Power Value to deal with True Gods.
Yet now the ancient tree tells them, even beings like True Gods and above can die.
This instilled great pressure in their little legendary hearts.
Shen Yun patted Han Xing’s shoulder and said, "Brother Xing, don’t overthink it."
"Remember what we said before?"
"No matter what happens, no matter how strong the enemies are, we will stand by your side."
Su Xiaoyang and Zhang Lianmeng also walked over, both women firmly said at this moment, "That’s right."
"Brother Han Xing, I support you!"
Cheng Jianyong, upon hearing this, exclaimed excitedly, "What’s there to fear, Brother Xing, just go for it!"
"As we said before, birds face the sky when they die, no matter how strong the enemies are, taking a True God down before dying isn’t a loss!"
After hearing this, Han Xing smiled as well.
He nodded and said, "Alright, let’s fight them!"
"The things Hunter accomplished, I must achieve!"
"The things Hunter couldn’t accomplish, I still must achieve!"
"If True God falls short, then become above True God, if even above True God falls short, then just blast the Holy Spirit Realm apart, and let’s all finish together!"
Upon hearing this, smiles appeared on team members’ faces.
This is the Han Xing they were familiar with.
Cheng Jianyong asked, "Brother Xing, what is our next move?"
"Should we continue guarding here, or first go elsewhere?"
Han Xing, upon hearing this, "Let me think it over first."
He fell into contemplation.
The team members, upon hearing, waited silently aside.
Clearly, the urgent matter now is to quickly break through to Demigod.
After all, only by breaking through to Demigod can he equip the three Holy Artifact Sets in hand.
The strength can get a substantial boost.
And to break through to Demigod, he must venture into the Void and find the Land of Divine War to test his luck.
