Chapter 1085: The Golden Horned Dominant God Body

The countless roots of the World Tree attacked Wu Tian simultaneously. Wu Tian felt as though his Harmonized Saint Body was being shattered, with his sacred blood surging violently inside him. With a “whoosh!” he spat out a large mouthful of golden blood.

Although the World Tree had not yet fully regained its former strength, having merged with the Heart of the World, its attacking power was by no means weak. This single attack was equivalent to that of thousands of peak Late Supreme Realm warriors. Though Wu Tian was a Harmonized Realm warrior, he could not withstand it either.

Wu Tian flew backward, golden blood spraying into the void.

“You, this… what is this?!” Wu Tian stabilized himself and stared at the roots of the World Tree in horror. A possibility flashed through his mind, but he dared not be sure—or rather, he refused to believe it.

“The World Tree!” But before Wu Tian could speak, Jin Wuba, who was far away splitting the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron with an axe, let out a shriek of shock.

Even the Confucian Sage, who was busy blocking the attacks of the Cosmic Axe in the distance, trembled upon hearing Jin Wuba’s scream and quickly turned to look.

Staring at the countless green roots glowing with golden light in the void, the Confucian Sage was stunned, his movements slowing down.

As for the Cosmic Axe, having seen it before, it was not particularly surprised.

“The World Tree! It’s really the World Tree! Haha, I never expected we’d encounter it!” After initial shock, Jin Wuba became wildly excited and laughed loudly.

His eyes burned with fanaticism—yes, fanaticism, even more intense than when he had looked at the Cosmic Axe before.

The World Tree, the first divine artifact! The first artifact that controlled the laws of the universe!

“I never thought the World Tree hadn’t completely perished. Haha, Heaven is generous to me!” Jin Wuba continued to laugh.

“Heaven is generous to you?” Huang Long sneered upon hearing this.

Jin Wuba glared at Huang Long and sneered, “Huang Long, do you think just because you have the Chaos Bell, the Heavenly Sacred Cauldron, and the World Tree, you’ve won against us?! Look at those roots—the World Tree was split by the Cosmic Axe back then and further damaged by the Central Sacred Lord. It probably doesn’t even possess one ten-thousandth of its former power now!”

He clearly saw that the World Tree was now equivalent to a peak Late Supreme Realm warrior. Thus, Jin Wuba wasn’t panicked—or rather, the temptation of the World Tree made him ignore his fear.

“As long as I seize the World Tree, then!” Jin Wuba’s eyes sparkled.

“Is that so?!” Huang Long remained indifferent.

At that moment, Wu Tian leaped forward, attempting to approach Jin Wuba. But as soon as he took off, Huang Long waved his hands, and countless roots and branches of the World Tree stretched out, instantly enveloping the space around him tightly. Under the astonished gaze of Jin Wuba and the Confucian Sage, Wu Tian disappeared. “You… this!” The Confucian Sage’s mouth hung open; suddenly, he understood how Xuan Sheng had disappeared and been captured by Huang Long back at the Wu Men Sacred Temple! So that’s how it was! The World Tree—it truly was the World Tree! Then he recalled why Huang Long had ignored the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths Dark Light Array they had set up when leaving. It was all the work of the World Tree! Huang Long sealed Wu Tian and placed him inside the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron, then turned to look at Jin Wuba. Now that Wu Tian was dealt with, Jin Wuba would be easy to handle. However, Jin Wuba’s true form was a Golden-Horned Giant. Although his apparent strength was on par with Wu Tian’s, his actual attacks were far more powerful. Still, Huang Long was confident he could seal Jin Wuba as well. Jin Wuba, shocked by Wu Tian’s sudden disappearance before him, quickly regained his composure, his expression dark and uncertain. Clearly, the fact that Wu Tian had been suddenly sealed and captured by Huang Long left him puzzled. After all, life was more important than anything, even the World Tree. No matter how tempting the World Tree might be, what use was it without a life? But just as he was confused, Huang Long flashed forward and appeared before him. With a gesture of his hands, the Chaos Bell began to spin violently and rushed toward him. Jin Wuba was startled and, without thinking further, swung his Golden Yuan Axe to meet the Chaos Bell. “Boom!” The Golden Yuan Axe collided head-on with the Chaos Bell, producing a thunderous sound that echoed across the heavens and earth. Jin Wuba was thrown back, and the Chaos Bell also recoiled. But as soon as Jin Wuba retreated, the Heavenly Earth Sacred Cauldron transformed into three thousand Hongmeng Divine Beasts and attacked again. Frightened, Jin Wuba quickly activated his Hunyuan Sacred Power and swung his Golden Yuan Axe once more to block the attack. Yet just as he deflected the attack of the three thousand Hongmeng Divine Beasts, countless branches of the World Tree suddenly surged from the void to attack him again. Jin Wuba was terrified and swung his Golden Yuan Axe frantically. Streams of golden axe energy shot out, barely repelling the attacks of the World Tree’s branches. Even so, under Huang Long’s continuous assaults, Jin Wuba was forced into a state of chaos and desperation.

Just as Jin Wubà had blocked the attack from the World Tree, the attack from the Chaos Bell arrived, along with the attack from the Spirit Jade. A character for “treasure” flew out from the Spirit Jade, emitting brilliant rays of light that struck Jin Wubà fiercely. In his haste, Jin Wubà was struck in the chest by this treasure character. Despite his armor, the impact sent him flying backward, blood dripping from his mouth. After all, the Spirit Jade was a sacred divine artifact, and with the power of the Hunyuan Sacred Force from the Yellow Dragon, which was no weaker than that of a cultivator at the Dao-Commingling stage, even Jin Wubà, despite being a Golden-Horned Giant with strong defenses, was severely injured. Wiping the golden blood from his mouth, his eyes burned with fury as he was both shocked and enraged. “You little Yellow Dragon, you’re going too far!” Jin Wubà roared. Then, his entire body swelled suddenly, transforming him into a giant who stood tall in the alternate space like a golden mountain. As his true form, the Golden-Horned Giant, appeared, the wound on his chest caused by the Spirit Jade’s attack glowed with golden light and healed completely. At the same time, golden runes appeared on his mountain-like muscles. These runes emitted a mysterious glow, and a golden primordial force surged from the void, empowering Jin Wubà. His aura grew stronger by the moment. “The Golden-Horned Dominant Divine Body!” The Yellow Dragon’s eyes narrowed. The Golden-Horned Dominant Divine Body was a special type of divine body among sacred bodies. When cultivated to its extreme, it could draw on the universe’s golden primordial force to continuously enhance one’s attack power. “Heh heh, that’s right—it’s indeed the Golden-Horned Dominant Divine Body!” After manifesting this body, Jin Wubà looked down at the Yellow Dragon with a cold smirk.
