Qingfeng Li’s face changed color. He immediately opened his mouth and formed a streak of Sonic-wave Lion Roar which crashed upon the upcoming sonic waves to stop them from nearing Xue Lin and the others.
Qingfeng Li used his Sky-Breaking Halberd and defeated the red demon tree with one hit. The self-cultivators around all lit up. A mere glimpse of these Man-Eating Demonic Trees terrified them, and they didn’t think that the trees would be so vulnerable in front of Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li stepped ahead and came to the front of the Man-Eating Demonic Tree. He waved the Halberd in his right hand with unparalleled strength and thrust at the center of the red demon tree.
He knew that only if he destroyed the core of it could he eventually kill the Man-Eating Demonic Tree.
However, the Man-Eating Demonic Tree that was there a second ago moved its body and rose right up. It pulled out its roots from underground and moved backwards with great speed. In the blink of an eye, it dodged Qingfeng Li’s attack.
Qingfeng Li was surprised and confused. “Interesting, it can climb out from the ground.”
Normally, whether it was on the Crimson Fire Continent or any other cultivation world, once a tree grew its roots in the ground, it was unlikely to move. Unfortunately, the Man-Eating Demonic Tree broke this rule and unexpectedly uprooted itself from the ground.
“Hualah…”
Suddenly, hundreds of branches came out from a dozen of Man-Eating Demonic Trees around. Each branch was as thick as a water tank and looked extremely strong.
Every tree branch had its mouth opened and fangs exposed, enough to devour the self-cultivators. The branches encircled Qingfeng Li from every direction and tried to bite him.
Xue Lin was terrified and shouted, “Be careful, Honey.”
Qingfeng Li smiled smoothly and answered quite nonchalantly, “Don’t worry about me. These Man-Eating Demonic Trees are no match for me.”
“Earthquake Heavenly Halberd!” Qingfeng Li used the second technique of the Sky-Breaking Halberd, which was also the most powerful move he had learned.
When Qingfeng Li waved his Halberd forward, he cracked several giant crevices into the ground. The crevices were as dark as ink and deep as though they were an abyss capable of devouring people.
Pootong…
Several Man-Eating Demonic Trees fell into the abyss and Qingfeng Li sealed up the crevices immediately.
“Kacha…”
Countless deafening sounds came out from underground. The Man-Eating Demonic Trees that were defiant, arrogant, and formidable only a moment ago were suddenly crushed into pieces by the cracks in the ground made by Qingfeng Li’s Halberd.
Great pools of blood flushed out from the cracks in the ground, incredibly terrifying with the pungent smell of blood brimming in the air around.
Qingfeng Li killed over a dozen Man-Eating Demonic Trees with only one move. Everyone was stunned. Even the young master of the Blade Monarch Sect looked at Qingfeng Li dumbfounded, as though he was looking at a Heavenly God.
At this second, the young master of the Blade Monarch Sect had deeply recognized the disparity between them and was glad that he was not up against Qingfeng Li. If he attacked Qingfeng Li outside of the Red Forest, he would have died without a doubt.
The young master welled up with a feeling that even his father, the Blade Monarch, was no match for Qingfeng Li.
His Ground-Breaking Heavenly Halberd was so powerful that it opened crevices in the ground like a ten-magnitude earthquake. Then, it killed all the Man-Eating Demonic Trees.
There were over a thousand Man-Eating Demonic Trees in this Red Forest. Although Qingfeng Li had killed a dozen or more, there were still thousands of them.
All of these Man-Eating Demonic Trees were psychic and full of murderous energy. They felt how powerful Qingfeng Li was and were incredibly angry seeing he had killed their companions.
Hualahlah…
Thousands of branches dashed in from all directions. The trees had given up on attacking other self-cultivators and instead decided on using all of their energy to fight Qingfeng Li and try to kill him.
In their eyes, Qingfeng Li was a devil born to be their enemy.
Other self-cultivators in the Red Forest where all very glad when they saw that the Man-Eating Demonic Trees did not attack them anymore but were also worried when they saw those branches shooting at Qingfeng Li.
Although they did not know Qingfeng Li, they had grown some respect towards him after they knew that Qingfeng Li had killed many Man-Eating Demonic Trees to help them out.
Qingfeng Li didn’t care about the upcoming branches. “Good timing, just enough for me to kill you all,” said Qingfeng Li arrogantly.
“Two Thousand Times Gravity Technique,” Qingfeng Li shouted and summoned two thousand times the gravity to nail thousands of the branches of the Man-Eating Demonic Trees to the ground. They were strongly drawn to the ground by the gravity underneath and could not move at all. Then, Qingfeng Li immediately used the Inferno Realm.
A circle thousands of feet in diameter around Qingfeng Li flamed up.
That flame was the Inferno Realm. With broiling hot temperatures, it set the red trees on fire and left their branches and leaves burning, with cracking sounds, turning into ashes.
At this time, someone let out an angry snarl with loads of rage, coldness, and murderous intention.
“Damnit human, how did you learn the Inferno Realm? Goddamn it. I will show you how I put out your flames.” The voice was aggressive and rampant.
Hualalala…
The sky started to pour down with a great amount of bloody rain. The rain came down in sheets like pouring water. However, it was not real rain, but red blood.
That was the blood of the human self-cultivators who were absorbed by a giant Man-Eating Demonic Tree. Now it spat the blood out and spread it everywhere. The blood then fell on the ground and put out Qingfeng Li’s Inferno Realm.
A streak of cold light flashed through Qingfeng Li’s eyes. He said coldly, “Are you the head of the Man-Eating Demonic Trees, the Man-Eating Tree Monarch? Your abilities are not bad but its still not enough.”
The Man-Eating Tree Monarch was gigantic, bigger than any other Man-Eating Demonic Tree around. It was over a thousand meters high and its trunk was as thick as a dozen people.
Above the main trunk, there was a human face that looked like a human self-cultivator. It had evolved. Under the face, there was a bushy beard, but instead of white hair, the hair was red like blood.
Its eyes contained cruelness, coldness, and mercilessness. The Man-Eating Demonic Trees around saw that the Tree Monarch had appeared and stepped aside out of respect and fear.
It was the king and commander of all the Man-Eating Demonic Trees. It was also the first Man-Eating Demonic Tree from five thousand years ago.
