Chapter 0615: The World Tree Exposed

Hebrey and Livia also stepped back at the same time. After stabilizing themselves, Hebrey’s expression turned grim. This strike could be considered a battle between him and Livia. Although Livia had a mutated body, his strength was slightly greater than hers. Yet it seemed that Livia wasn’t at a disadvantage just now.

Hebrey couldn’t help but glance at the dark blue long sword in Livia’s hand. He recognized it as the first Sacred King Spirit Treasure forged by the Yellow Dragon at the Thunder Roc Mountain Armament Festival. He had personally tested its grade and had a deep impression of it; he had even fallen deeply in love with this sword before coming here. That’s why, when the three Divine Kings discussed how to divide the spoils after killing the Yellow Dragon and Livia, he had demanded this dark blue long sword as one of the Sacred King Spirit Treasures.

He never expected the Yellow Dragon to give it to Livia.
“It seems this sly fox has quite the charm!” Hebrey burned with jealousy.

After stepping back, Livia’s pretty face lit up with joy as she looked at the dark blue long sword in her hand, her beautiful eyes filled with delight. After the Yellow Dragon gave her the sword, she had tried its power. Though she knew of its strength, this was the first time she truly experienced its full power. This sword had leveled the slight gap between her and Hebrey.

Livia couldn’t help but cast a grateful look at the Yellow Dragon. Seeing this, the Yellow Dragon understood her intent and nodded with a smile. In fact, for the Yellow Dragon, this sword was merely passable, but in the eyes of Livia and the others, it was an extremely powerful Sacred King Spirit Treasure.

In the distance, Leo and Opot watched this development with furrowed brows.
“It seems we have to intervene!” Leo sighed, his gaze drifting over the dark blue long sword in Livia’s hand, a glint of intensity in his eyes.
“I’ll do it!” Opot said firmly. With that, he dashed forward and arrived in front of Silver Fox Mountain.

Leo shrugged indifferently. For him, it didn’t matter who intervened—the outcome would be the same. Of course, in his opinion, one of them acting was enough.
This time, the defense array of Silver Fox Mountain would surely be broken!
“Brother Hebrey, wait. Let’s attack together and break this array!” Opot said as he approached Hebrey.

Although reluctant, Hebrey knew there was no other choice. He had originally thought he could handle it alone, but unforeseen circumstances had arisen.
“I’ll break the Silver Fox Mountain array, and I’ll kill the Yellow Dragon,” Hebrey said, his eyes flashing coldly as he stared at the Yellow Dragon ahead.

Although the issue of profit distribution had been agreed upon in advance, everyone knew that killing the Yellow Dragon might yield even greater benefits. A glint appeared in Opot’s eyes as he smiled and said, “Of course, that was what we agreed on earlier.” Only then did Hibere nod. “Let’s go!” Opot and Hibere exchanged a glance, showing rare coordination, then soared into the air, simultaneously summoning their Sacred King’s treasures and launching an attack on Silver Fox Mountain. Opot held a long spear that was bright golden in color, matching the light surrounding him. On the spear was a lifelike golden dragon carved into it. The dragon raised its head, its eyes glaring, infused with Opot’s divine power. Its eyes sparkled, and its scales unfurled one by one, creating clouds of dragon energy around it. As Opot thrust the spear forward, the golden dragon seemed to emerge from the clouds, letting out a thunderous roar as a powerful dragon aura radiated outward. Shadows of spears filled the sky, piercing through layers of mist and illuminating the heights, filled with murderous intent. This was the Sacred King’s treasure of Tianlong Mountain—the Dragon Spear. Originally, this spear was a divine weapon used by the Chaos Dragon Menglei in his lifetime. After Menglei’s death, it fell into Opot’s hands. After years of refinement, it had merged with Opot, becoming his own divine weapon. Meanwhile, Hibere swung his thunder axe. Unlike before, after several axe shadows appeared and overlapped, they moved closer to Silver Fox Mountain, with each shadow carrying increasing destructive power. Eventually, the space around the shadows seemed to burn. Red flames streaked across the sky like a giant red bridge spanning the heavens. At that moment, Wifley and the others also launched fierce attacks on Silver Fox Mountain. With Divine King Opot joining them, Wifley and the others were confident that this time, Silver Fox Mountain’s defense would be broken. The ancestors of the Valles family even had blazing eyes, as if they could already see the beauties of Silver Fox Mountain groaning and begging before them. Seeing Opot and Hibere attacking together, Livia’s expression changed. Though she knew she couldn’t withstand their combined attacks alone, she still acted without hesitation. Gritting her teeth, she soared into the air and, with a sharp cry, swung her dark blue long sword. With that strike, countless gold and silver swords appeared in the sky—created by Livia’s divine power.

Sword rain filled the skies everywhere, with trembling sounds echoing through the clouds. The sword rain hadn’t arrived yet, but Hibere and Opot already felt the piercing sword energy. Even Wifley and the others were forced to endure the intense pain caused by the sword energy coming from afar.

However, though Livia’s sword strike was powerful, it paled in comparison to the attacks from Hibere and Opot.

A cold smirk widened in Hibere and Opot’s eyes.

In the distance, Leo also smiled broadly.

Wifley and the others also showed signs of joy.

Just then, suddenly, a bright light surged high in the sky, spreading like ripples from a blooming flower. At the same time, an ancient bell appeared before everyone.

Above the ancient bell, grayishairflow churned incessantly. As it rose higher, the bell grew larger and larger, blocking out the sun.

“Yellow Dragon!” Leo exclaimed, frowning briefly before his smile returned. “Yellow Dragon, you’ve finally made your move!”

The Yellow Dragon was the main target of their mission, and he had been keeping a close eye on it. Though the Yellow Dragon was strong, it was still only at the level of a Supreme God. In the eyes of the gods, it was merely an ant that was a bit bigger and stronger.

So, Leo hadn’t intervened.

Hibere and Opot were not surprised but rather pleased to see the Yellow Dragon take action. Murderous intent flashed in their eyes, and their divine power surged even more.

But behind the Chaos Bell, another green light appeared in the sky. All the gods instantly felt a vast surge of life energy.

They couldn’t help but look up, including Hibere and Opot.

Wifley, Mori, and the others didn’t show much reaction, but upon seeing it, Hibere and Opot’s expressions changed drastically. Their pupils narrowed as they exclaimed, “The World Tree!”

“It’s really the World Tree!” Earlier, Hibere and Opot had been skeptical, but upon seeing it again, they were certain that what was in the sky was indeed the legendary World Tree!

Shocked, their attacks weakened slightly.

At that moment, countless white jade roots of the Netherworld Divine Tree reached out toward Wifley and the others. At the same time, a deafening bell sound rang out, and a massive wave of energy, along with the primordial yellow aura, rushed toward Hibere and Opot.

Boom! Boom!

The attacks from both sides collided violently once again.

Even with the defensive formation of Silver Fox Mountain, it shook violently.

Terrifying waves of energy shot out in all directions. Seeing this, the Yellow Dragon stretched out his hand and pointed; a beam of golden light shot into the Chaos Bell in the sky. The Chaos Bell grew infinitely larger, eventually covering the entire Silver Fox Mountain. Stars began to shine, blocking off those surging waves of energy.

Protected by the Yellow Dragon’s Chaos Bell, the people on Silver Fox Mountain were not affected by the counterattacks of those energy waves. But the elders of the Valles family suffered greatly.

Hebrey and Opot fled, having no time to shield others from those counterattacks. Even if they had the chance, they wouldn’t have done so. As Divine Kings, what status did they possess that they would go out of their way to save these creatures who relied on them?

Thus, under the onslaught of those energy waves, countless figures flew backward in the sky, with streams of blood spraying everywhere, adding streaks of red to the heavens.

The Supreme God was fortunate, suffering only minor injuries from the backlash. But the elders of the Valles family and other clans, who were lords and supreme gods, suffered terribly—their faces pale, their divine armor completely ruined, with several even dying outright.

After stabilizing their positions, Hebrey and Opot turned a blind eye to the miserable state of the Valles family and others. Instead, their eyes burned with desire as they stared at the World Tree in the green expanse above.

World Tree! World Tree! Those four words echoed repeatedly in their minds.

Contrastingly, Leo’s expression turned grim. The Yellow Dragon had revealed the World Tree at this moment. He had thought the Yellow Dragon would be cautious, just like in the Mor Mountains, and wouldn’t use it so quickly. Then, after breaking Silver Fox Mountain’s grand formation, he would kill the Yellow Dragon in an instant and seize the World Tree.

But now, everything was out of his control.

Watching the frenzied greed in Hebrey and Opot’s eyes, Leo frowned and even resented the Yellow Dragon. If he had known this, he would have acted too.

Like Leo, Livia was also surprised—she hadn’t expected the Yellow Dragon to reveal the World Tree at this time.

In fact, the Yellow Dragon had his own plans for revealing it. As he saw it, Leo surely hadn’t yet told Hebrey and Opot that he possessed the World Tree. Now that they knew, conflicts over interests would surely arise among the three.

Sure enough, Hebrey, who had taken his gaze away from the World Tree, saw Leo’s expression and sneered, “Leo, you already knew the Yellow Dragon had the World Tree. No wonder you insisted on choosing one first!”

“I thought so. I see.” Hebrei also didn’t look pleased.
