Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 958 - 544 Each’s Hidden Card

"No, we have to retreat now. This demon plant is too bizarre; if my Divine Statue burns for another minute, I will suffer irreversible damage," Zhu Yuan said with a grave expression through telepathic communication.

"Are you joking? After the price we’ve all paid, just to retreat like this, can you be content with that? And anyway, don’t we still have one minute? Give me one minute, and I’m sure I can burn it to death," Yan Hu immediately responded.

"That’s easy to say, but we really shouldn’t push to the limit! You need to understand that every second now is causing damage to the Divine Statue, and the more damage we cause, the higher the price we’ll pay for recovery later," Zhu Yuan said.

"But think about it, it’s just a Demigod demon plant; how can its foundation compare to the four of us? It must be close to its limit," Yan Hu contended.

"But this is the Land of Revival; anything can happen. What if it can hold on?" Zhu Yuan countered.

Just as the two were about to start arguing, Zhang Tiangang forcefully interjected, "Stop arguing, both of you. I still have a killing blow left. If it doesn’t kill him, we will retreat."

"Same here," Gu Wanxiong joined in.

Just before this, he had unleashed hundreds of punches and realized that he was struggling to pose a lethal threat to the roots, so he began to charge his attack.

Now his Divine Armguard was emitting a blinding light; it was clear that it was fermenting a deadly move.

All four were communicating with their Divine Sense, and with the thought processes of True Gods being incredibly fast, they reached a consensus in just a second.

At the very moment they reached consensus, Ye Feng suddenly felt a fatal threat looming.

Glancing at Gu Wanxiong, who was still charging his attack, Ye Feng had realized what was happening the moment the other started charging and had attempted to use the roots to interfere.

But Gu Wanxiong, who had initially been at the forefront, had retreated, causing Ye Feng’s interference to fail.

And now one of the fatal threats that Ye Feng felt was emanating from him.

The thought of a True God Peak strongman needing to charge up to unleash an attack, especially after burning through his Divine Statue, filled Ye Feng with extreme apprehension.

Regrettably, right now she could only barely maintain her defenses and had no way to counter it; she could only watch as her opponent charged up.

"No, this feeling of a fatal danger—it’s not just coming from one place," Ye Feng frowned slightly.

Then she saw the Divine Sword Phantoms that had been constantly attacking her start to return.

These phantoms began to overlap, one after another, and the Divine Sword Phantoms were expanding at a terrifying speed. The energy fluctuations emanating from them were growing more and more dreadful.

Ye Feng looked at the charging fist and then at the Divine Sword Phantom, and couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

He admitted that he might have underestimated these True God strongmen’s desperation.

He could feel the energy fluctuations in the Divine Artifacts in their hands escalating continuously, already touching the threshold of Higher Gods.

And their build-up hadn’t stopped, which meant that it was very likely they could unleash an attack at the level of Higher Gods.

Almost subconsciously, Ye Feng thought about having her human persona directly activate the Grand Formation of the Heavenly Court Relics to obliterate these people.

However, she forcefully suppressed that thought because that was the last resort.

Right now, she wasn’t yet at the end of her tether; there was still one last trump card she hadn’t revealed.

Without any hesitation, Ye Feng immediately activated the Plant Domain, a system power she acquired after breaking through to Eighth Order.

The Domain granted by the system was completely independent from Ye Feng, so it didn’t conflict with the Inner World she was currently employing.

Of course, the Plant Domain is quite peculiar and doesn’t possess much offensive ability; its effects are focused on enhancement and defensive transfer.

So, when the Plant Domain was released, Ye Feng didn’t extend it towards the front but instead, it stretched toward Earth behind him.

As Ye Feng deployed the Plant Domain, tall plants on Earth rose from the ground, turning into huge tree people.

This was one of the preparations Ye Feng had made during the past half-year of strategic preparation.

Nearly all of Earth’s powerful mutated plants had been directly transformed by Ye Feng into tree people.

Of course, due to the slow growth of the mutated plants, these tree people, at best, were of the Sixth Order.

Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t be able to influence the current battlefield in any way.

But at this moment, they were not meant to fight personally; as the tree people rose from the ground, an odd fluctuation emanated from them.

If someone were present, they would notice that these fluctuations closely resembled those of a domain.

As the fluctuations spread rapidly, they enveloped the entire forest, causing a resonance.

The entire forest’s plants also released their energy, merging into this fluctuation.

Soon, with the tree people at its center, the fluctuating power of the Plant Domain grew stronger, covering the whole Earth in just a second or two.

By then, Ye Feng’s Plant Domain had already spread onto Earth, connecting with these tree people.

At this moment, Ye Feng could bolster himself with the energy of all plants across the globe through the Plant Domain.

Although each plant contributed an insignificant amount of power, the collective might of so many mutated plants had the potential to affect even the True God level.

Now, the energy feedback from the Plant Domain made Ye Feng’s already terrifying physical condition soar even higher.

The sense of lethal threat was still there, but in this state, Ye Feng now had some confidence in being able to defend himself.

"Damn it, what kind of monstrous demon plant is this that can still boost its strength at a time like this?" Zhu Yuan cursed under his breath.

He was still deploying the Infinite Grinding Disc, and he was the one who felt the clearest increase in Ye Feng’s defensive power.

Even while burning his Divine Statue for power, his Infinite Grinding Disc was barely cutting through those tree roots and was even starting to be pushed back.

His gaze involuntarily shifted towards Zhang Tiangang and Gu Wanxiong.

At that moment, Zhang Tiangang stepped forward, his right hand’s index and middle fingers joining together into a sword gesture, pointing from afar at Ye Feng’s trunk body.

Hum!

In the void, a Divine Sword Phantom hundreds of kilometers long, following Zhang Tiangang’s gesture, seemed to cross through ages, carrying a primordial aura of slaughter as it thrust directly at Ye Feng.

Whoosh!

Where the Divine Sword Phantom passed, space shattered layer by layer.

The Divine Sword Phantom had not even reached its target when Sword Scars began to appear on Ye Feng’s tree roots; merely the sword intent was enough to breach Ye Feng’s current defense.

Not only that, in another direction, Gu Wanxiong, who had been charging up all this time, also made his move at the same time.
