Chapter 2817: The Guardian God Is Dumbfounded
All the strongest beings were inside the World Tree, and the corrosion on their bodies had stopped.
Although they had little power left, they swiftly restored their bodies.
Of course, their bodies were now quite frail, given their weakened state.
Everyone’s faces were filled with unexplainable excitement, a sense of surviving a disaster.
"I never imagined we would survive!" Taoist Venerable couldn’t help but express.
"It’s still Su Alliance Leader’s World Tree that’s useful!" Buddha Venerable nodded in agreement.
"Why is my World Tree useless then?" Qi’er muttered.
"Perhaps it’s because your World Tree hasn’t fused with you." Heaven Slayer suddenly said: "Su Alliance Leader’s World Tree is equivalent to a part of his body. Whereas your World Tree is merely a Divine Artifact, not part of your body, so they are not the same!"
"I see!" Qi’er suddenly understood and then looked at Su Yang with surprise: "Brother Su, why can this World Tree fuse with you? I’ve cultivated the World Tree for many years, but it hasn’t fused with me!"
"Perhaps my body is just a part of the World Tree." Su Yang spoke softly, recalling the memories he obtained from this sapling.
His flesh sheltered the tender branch, and later the fallen leaves nourished his flesh. So, in some sense, he and this tender branch were actually one, which might be the main reason he could fuse with this sapling.
Human Emperor suddenly exclaimed: "Wow, your body isn’t corroded even inside the black hole!"
Everyone looked outside; Su Yang’s body was still in the black hole. Just like Human Emperor said, surprisingly, Su Yang’s body showed no signs of corrosion.
Su Yang glanced over as well, equally puzzled, he hadn’t anticipated this situation either.
"Your Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone can resist the corrosion of this black hole?" Taoist Venerable exclaimed.
Su Yang shrugged, how could he know? But judging from the current situation, it seemed true.
Thinking about it, since his body could resist the black hole’s corrosion, couldn’t it also resist that of the Tai Chi Diagram? Meaning, he could have entered the Tai Chi Diagram directly to absorb its nutrients!
Realizing this, Su Yang felt speechless. If he had known, he would have entered the Tai Chi Diagram to absorb some nutrients.
Though he didn’t know the purpose of those nutrients, since the Seven Heavenly Venerables were absorbing them, they must be beneficial.
Moreover, that withered branch absorbed the nutrients from the Tai Chi Diagram and eventually turned into a small sapling. Thus, the nutrients from the Tai Chi Diagram must be filled with vitality, which could greatly benefit his cultivation!
At this moment, the Guardian Gods outside were utterly dumbfounded.
They never imagined that after Su Yang went in, not only was he unharmed by the black hole. More crucially, he could protect those Human Clan strongest beings!
This was a catastrophe for the Guardian Gods.
Seizing this opportunity, they aimed to completely annihilate the Human Clan strongest beings, permanently eliminating future threats.
With the Human Clan strongest gone, they could easily destroy the Human Clan. Thereafter, they didn’t have to worry about the Human Clan anymore; the Seven Heavenly Venerables could peacefully do their work, and the Guardian Gods could exist eternally, controlling everything.
But now, such incidents interrupted their plan.
The Human Clan strongest weren’t killed, leaving a lingering threat, preventing them from focusing on their tasks.
"What do we do now?" a strongest being urgently asked.
The First God remained silent, unsure of what to do.
The black hole could isolate the power within, preventing it from escaping, but it also blocked external power from entering.
Standing outside, they couldn’t inflict harm on those inside.
If they went in, they couldn’t come out, and the black hole’s power would corrode their bodies, as they lacked Su Yang’s World Tree to shelter them.
Once inside, Human Clan wouldn’t need to act; they would fall by the black hole’s power.
As for the Seven Heavenly Venerables, forget about it.
Their task inside is crucial, they can’t be distracted. Even if they could divert their attention to deal with the Human Clan, their power would be restricted inside the black hole.
If they acted, they’d have to leave the coffins, and leaving would lead to corrosion by the black hole’s power.
They would face corrosion by the black hole while hunting the Human Clan, a risky move.
Should the Human Clan resort to evasion rather than direct confrontation, they’d be in trouble.
Moreover, Su Yang could summon the Power of Earth, capable of shattering those coffins. If they left the coffins, and Su Yang shattered them using Power of Earth, the Seven Heavenly Venerables would be in danger.
Hence, eliminating the Human Clan inside is nearly impossible. With Su Yang also present, the Seven Heavenly Venerables wouldn’t even approach him, avoiding his surprise attack that might disrupt their refuge.
"If only we hadn’t let this Su Yang enter the black hole!" Eternal Main God suddenly shouted.
Upon hearing this, all the Supremes looked to the First God.
When some Supremes wanted to stop Su Yang, the First God held them off. Now that Su Yang was in the black hole, the blame naturally fell on the First God.
The First God’s expression changed; he basically held authority over the Guardian Gods. However, the Eternal Main God and others constantly challenged his authority.
This mishap was an instant opportunity for the Eternal Main God to challenge his influence.
Seeing everyone’s gaze, the First God knew that if he didn’t quickly change the current situation, his influence over the Guardian Gods would rapidly decline.
"He’s merely inside the black hole, so what?" the First God coldly replied: "Their entry into the black hole is like walking into a trap, a dead end. We might save some effort without having to kill them ourselves!"
"First God, are you blind, or are you lying with your eyes open?" Eternal Main God retorted coldly: "Given the current situation, you still claim they’re seeking death? Open your eyes! The black hole’s corrosion power has no effect on them!"
