Chapter 1211

Lin Moyu had the Flame Lich retract its Law Galaxy to reduce the probability of being attacked, as it did not need to launch attacks for the time being.

As of now, the Flame Lich's attacks had lost their effectiveness, and the damage caused could not keep up with the recovery speed of the Tree of Death.

Lin Moyu pondered a solution. "It's just not easy to finish off, but that doesn't mean it can't be done."

"The Stone Demons rely on numbers to overwhelm, so as long as there are about a hundred God King Rank 8 entities, it is possible to push through with a forceful assault."

"If there aren't that many God King Rank 8s, would replacing them with three God King Rank 9s be enough?"

"Three God King Rank 9s, plus a dozen or so God King Rank 8 Stone Demons, should be just about right."

"With one God King Rank 9, the drop rate is halved; with a few more, the drop rate is still halved and won't be affected any further. Does this count as a loophole?"

He had originally wanted to take down the boss monster with the minimum cost, but it seemed that was no longer possible.

Fortunately, due to the influence of the illusion, the boss monster had no power to resist. As long as he could finish it off within the remaining time, he would be able to obtain the key.

Lin Moyu stopped thinking about it and took out a piece of flesh and blood from a God King Rank 9 Stone Demon.

The Undying Flame burned fiercely. A large amount of stone was created out of thin air, the physical body regenerated, and the soul was reconstructed.

Ten seconds later, a God King Rank 9 Stone Demon appeared beside Lin Moyu.

Immediately after, Lin Moyu took out all the flesh and blood of the God King Rank 8 Stone Demons.

The Undying Flame exploded, turning all the God King Rank 8 Stone Demons into Revenants.

In total, there were eighteen God King Rank 8 Stone Demons and one God King Rank 9 Stone Demon.

Shortly after, the skeleton throne appeared, and the God King Rank 8 Skeleton King rose from the throne.

The Skeleton King was ten thousand meters tall, even taller than the Tree of Death.

However, in terms of combat power, it was indeed inferior to the Tree of Death.

Lin Moyu took a deep breath. "Let's begin!"

His aura climbed steadily as he activated his Origin Technique once again.

A faint light shimmered on his body, and with the [Gather Power] technique applied, his strength increased rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it reached God King Rank 9, and at the peak of God King Rank 9 at that.

A wave of throbbing pain came from within his soul, warning Lin Moyu that his soul could collapse at any moment.

Then, the faint light changed, and the [Strong Soldier] technique was applied once more.

His soul power was consumed rapidly, but it brought with it immense power.

Including the Flame Lich, there were a total of nineteen God King Rank 8s and three God King Rank 9s; Lin Moyu did not believe they still couldn't take down the Tree of Death.

"Charge!"

At his command, all the Stone Demons curled into balls, turning into stone spheres, and rammed toward the Tree of Death.

They surged with momentum, snapping vine after vine.

The vines of the Tree of Death were too dense, and as they whipped around wildly, they left very few gaps.

At this moment, the Skeleton King raised its bone sword. Technique: God Slayer!

The sword light exploded across a large number of vines, which snapped in response, carving out a path for the Stone Demons.

Lin Moyu turned into light and charged forward at the fastest speed. He surpassed the Stone Demons and was the first to rush into the path carved out by the Skeleton King.

There were still many vines inside the path, so Lin Moyu also swung his sword. Technique: God Slayer!

It was the exact same technique as the Skeleton King's, but its power was greater than the Skeleton King's.

He was at the peak of God King Rank 9, so it was normal for the power to be greater.

A large number of vines broke. Although the Tree of Death was trapped in an illusion, it still felt that it was under attack.

The next moment, more vines whipped over.

Lin Moyu brandished his bone sword, severing all the vines that whipped toward him.

The Skeleton King also arrived at this moment. The bone sword it wielded was even more massive, and with a single sweep, a large swath of vines snapped.

The Skeleton King's attacks attracted the Tree of Death. The Tree of Death instinctively concentrated its attacks in the direction of the Skeleton King, making the path forward for Lin Moyu and the Stone Demons clear.

Lin Moyu opened his Law Domain, and the massive Law Domain wrapped around the branches and trunk of the Tree of Death.

Behind him, the Strange Star rose, and in an instant, all the Undead Law was converted into the Power of Death.

Chapter 1336: If You Can't Hit Them, Then Use Area-of-Effect Attacks

The Undead Law, like surging waves and thick fog, enveloped the Tree of Death in layer after layer.

The Tree of Death was wrapped in a layer of water, and the water contained the Law of Water, which greatly weakened the Flame Lich's damage.

At this moment, the Undead Law collided with the Law of Water, rapidly dissolving the Law of Water and turning the water into ordinary water.

Without the Law of Water, it was difficult to withstand the Flame Lich's attacks.

The Flame Lich seized the opportunity to strike. Clouds of white water vapor rose rapidly, a large amount of moisture was evaporated, and a sizzling sound was emitted.

Firelight once again enveloped the Tree of Death.

The Tree of Death instinctively felt danger descending and became even more frantic.

Vines whipped, and the roots shook frantically.

Yellow sand danced in the air, and vines flew out from the yellow sand, crossing a distance of over ten thousand meters to whip densely onto the Skeleton King.

In reality, the Tree of Death was in an illusion and could not lock onto the Skeleton King at all; it could only roughly judge a direction.

The Skeleton King's size was too large; with a body ten thousand meters tall, it was impossible to dodge all the vines.

The Skeleton King brandished its bone sword, severing a large number of vines.

Suddenly, the ground collapsed, and countless roots flew out from underground, wrapping it tightly.

The roots gave a fierce tug, and immense power dragged the Skeleton King down toward the underground.

The Skeleton King lost its balance and fell with a crash.

At this moment, countless vines whipped over, landing on the Skeleton King. In an instant, the white bones were snapped, scattering and flying out.

White light permeated the Skeleton King's body as the Legion Ruler performed healing rapidly.

The ground rumbled, and the yellow sand ground within a radius of one hundred thousand meters suddenly collapsed simultaneously, causing the Legion Ruler to lose its balance at the same time.

Countless roots surged out simultaneously from beneath the yellow sand ground within a radius of one hundred thousand meters.

The root system of the Tree of Death was incredibly developed and astonishing.

The healing was interrupted. Under the dense attack of the vines, in less than half a second, the Skeleton King's body was torn apart and collapsed with a crash.

"The power of the illusion has weakened!"

Lin Moyu's heart tightened as he sensed the information transmitted back by the Starlight Lich.

Although the Tree of Death was only God King Rank 8, it was a boss monster, and the power required to cast an illusion on it was far greater than that for other God King Rank 8s.

It was even more difficult than dealing with a God King Rank 9.

After maintaining it for over ten minutes, the illusion power of the Starlight Lich began to gradually weaken.

This also allowed the Tree of Death to roughly sense the existence of the Skeleton King and launch a strong attack directly.

Lin Moyu was not surprised that the Skeleton King was destroyed.

Its large size was both the Skeleton King's advantage and its disadvantage.

At this moment, he and the Stone Demons had already rushed to the bottom of the Tree of Death, and the Skeleton King's mission was declared complete.

The Stone Demons quickly changed their forms, turning into their normal shapes.

They unfolded their bodies and swung their huge fists, smashing toward the Tree of Death.

Their stones emitted a hazy light, and their fists carried earth-type laws, landing punch after punch, just like hammering iron.

The Stone Demons' attacks were simple and unadorned, without flashy techniques, only strikes that landed solidly on the flesh.

They did not have any special abilities; their repeated transformations and mastery of a small number of techniques were all for the purpose of enhancing their defense.

In terms of attack power, they were not strong and belonged to the weaker side among those of the same rank.

But their stamina was astonishing, and they could attack continuously. As long as they were given time, the total damage caused would not be little.

Fists were as dense as rain, and the sturdy tree shell was smashed into holes.

The tree bark exploded, revealing the tree flesh inside.

The Stone Demons had no intention of stopping at all; their offensive became even more fierce, smashing and pulverizing the tree flesh piece by piece.

The bone sword in Lin Moyu's hand also did not stop; sword light shimmered, and large swathes of tree bark were cut into fragments under his sword.

His power was extremely strong, reaching the limit of God King Rank 9, and the damage he caused alone was comparable to all the Stone Demons combined.

The Law of Water on the surface of the Tree of Death had already been corroded by the Undead Law, the moisture had been evaporated by the Flame Lich, and flames once again enveloped the Tree of Death.

The Tree of Death felt the threat to its life, and the entire trunk began to shake violently.

A large number of leaves flew down from the tree; each leaf was over a meter in diameter and extremely huge.

The leaves danced in the air and then exploded with a crash.

The moment the leaves exploded, lightning rumbled, and countless electric snakes flew out, weaving into a dense electric net that enveloped Lin Moyu and all the Stone Demons.

Both the Flame Lich and the Starlight Lich were affected by the electric net, and the projected Law Galaxy they summoned also kept vibrating and trembling, as if it would collapse at any moment.

The electric snakes struck the Stone Demons, leaving them battered and bruised.

For a time, the Stone Demons fell into a paralyzed state, making it difficult to launch attacks.

Lin Moyu was not affected by abnormal status effects. Although the Lightning Law within the electric snakes could also cause him damage, it was still within the range he could withstand.

The undead within the Spell Star shared his damage, and the Legion Ruler continuously performed healing on the undead.

"Another area-of-effect attack!"

"If it can't hit the target, it uses an area-of-effect attack. As expected of a boss monster, it really is clever."

The Tree of Death was affected by the illusion and found it difficult to lock onto specific targets.

Even though the illusion had weakened somewhat, he and the Stone Demons were too small as targets, and to the Tree of Death, they were just like little birds on the tree.

Therefore, area-of-effect attacks became the best choice, covering the entire area with attacks so that no one could escape.

The Stone Demons froze in place, unable to move as they were attacked by the electric snakes, falling into paralysis.

The electric snakes seemed to have grown eyes; sensing the attacked Stone Demons, they began to concentrate their fire.

A large number of electric snakes darted over, wanting to blast the Stone Demons to death.

Lin Moyu's gaze narrowed; he knew it was because the number of Stone Demons was too small.

If there were a hundred God King Rank 8 Stone Demons, there would be no need to fear this kind of area-of-effect attack.

The electric snake attack had the same characteristic as his own techniques: the more targets attacked, the smaller the power.

As long as there were enough Stone Demons, the damage could be shared.

But now he had less than 20 Stone Demons, which was clearly a disadvantage.

His heart hardened. "Self-destruct!"

He issued the order in his consciousness, and immediately, there was a deafening boom.

A Stone Demon suddenly self-destructed, and immense power swept out.

The Stone Demon was right against the Tree of Death, so more than half of the force of the self-destruction was borne by the Tree of Death.

Immediately after, the Stone Demons self-destructed one after another.

Roaring sounds rang out continuously, and a large number of branches and roots were blown apart.

Huge holes were blown into the tree trunk.

The tree bark had long been smashed by fists, and now even the tree flesh inside had been blown into terrifying gaps.

Amidst the self-destruction, Lin Moyu saw a flash of green, followed by a strange aura being transmitted out.

This aura contained the powerful Law of Life.

"Law of Life!"
