453: Chapter 448 Death of the Rakshasa Queen 453: Chapter 448 Death of the Rakshasa Queen “Crack!”
The lightning flashed and thunder roared!
A bolt of lightning struck the top of the tree!
Throughout its millennia of existence, the ancient tree had experienced numerous lightning strikes, but none had ever injured it.
Yet, this time, the tree ignited not because it was defenseless, but because it had no more reason to keep on living.
The fierce flames blazed up; all the nearby animals scattered.
The fire burned for three whole days before it was extinguished, and the area around the ancient tree had long turned to charcoal.
—This was the life of the millennium ancient tree!
No, in a sense, it wasn’t a full life, but rather a “half-life”!
“Mighty one, I had already died, but because of you, I was given a new life.
Shu Xin has never died, hoping to find the reason to keep on living!”
The aged voice shared its feelings with Ye Tian.
Ye Tian could distinctly feel the heartfelt intentions from Shu Xin!
In the past, though the ancient tree had lived for thousands of years, during that time, it had seen the forest’s ceaseless changes and was powerless to change them, hence it had already died at heart.
But he hadn’t expected that the aged Shu Xin could be extracted by Ye Tian.
The old tree, already weary of life, suddenly connected with the nature of Ye Tian’s heart.
As Ye Tian carved the core of the millennium ancient tree, the old tree’s Shu Xin gradually awakened and merged with Ye Tian’s heart!
However, the two had not completely fused together yet; it was only when the carving of the wooden knife was nearly finished that Ye Tian saw some fragmented memories of the millennium ancient tree.
This indicated, there were still some barriers between them.
But, when Ye Tian was on the verge of death, Shu Xin of the ancient tree began to call out to him!
If Ye Tian had died, Shu Xin of the tree would have perished as well, which was unbearable for the ancient tree that had just awakened because of Ye Tian.
“Mighty one, we have a long path ahead of us, you can’t die here, let me teach you how to use this power!”
The aged voice revealed an endless resolve.
Ye Tian was deeply moved by Shu Xin, and he emphatically said, “Elder, I wish to travel the world with you from now on!”
As soon as he had spoken, Ye Tian saw a flash of white light in front of him, followed by the light penetrating his body.
In that instant, Ye Tian felt a surge of strength overwhelming him, this was the power he acquired from merging with the ancient tree!
The scene before him shifted again, and he saw the Rakshasa Queen’s bloody claw about to strike his heart!
At that moment, Ye Tian suddenly felt strength in his limbs.
His body swiftly turned, dodging the deadly blow, and after rolling on the ground, he stood up again!
He had just witnessed the lifetime of the ancient tree in his inner world and merged with it, but in the real world, only 0.1 seconds had passed…
“Huff, huff…”
Ye Tian had nearly died at the hands of the Rakshasa Queen.
Although he had narrowly escaped, he was still deeply shaken and kept gasping for air.
While he gasped, Ye Tian also began to gradually muster the Inner Strength within him, the power he gained from Shu Xin which kept bursting forth!
Looking at the wooden knife in his hand, it was no longer merely a weapon, but a part of Ye Tian himself!
“The King of the Night, you were able to dodge my attack?”
The Rakshasa Queen looked at Ye Tian in astonishment.
Just now Ye Tian had nearly lost consciousness, only missing her final strike, but in less than a second, he managed to evade her lethal attack and even regulate his Inner Strength.
Moreover, the Rakshasa Queen distinctly felt that the power inside Ye Tian was continuously growing.
Where on earth did he get his power from?
Not just the Rakshasa Queen, but also several observing Caucasians were astounded…
“How is that possible?
That guy, wasn’t he about to die?
How can he stand up again?”
“Could it be, is this the power of a strong individual?
Ordinary people can’t fathom the limit of the powerful, who even on the brink of death, can still burst forth in the final moment!”
…
Everyone watched Ye Tian in disbelief.
After regulating his breathing, Ye Tian felt the robust power within him and was ecstatic.
“Thank you, Rakshasa Queen.”
Ye Tian actually began thanking the Rakshasa Queen, although she had no idea what he meant.
“Thanking me?”
The Rakshasa Queen, engulfed in fierce flames, said in astonishment, but the flames made it hard for anyone to see her expression.
“Yes, had you not battered me to near death, I would not have gained such power!”
Ye Tian sneered, firmly grasping the wooden knife in his hand, then channeling all his power through it.
Unlike the power he had before, which emanated from within him, this time the source of Ye Tian’s strength was clearly the wooden knife in his hand.
From the wooden knife, the Rakshasa Queen could distinctly feel the torrential power flowing into Ye Tian, and Ye Tian’s body was unable to contain such immense power!
Ye Tian was gradually enveloped by thunder and lightning, and his hair stood up due to the electricity, making him look like a fierce spirit!
Crackle, crackle…
The sound of the electricity was clear, similar to the surrounding fire of the Rakshasa Queen, this thunder could also harm people!
“Swish!”
Casually, Ye Tian had made his move, extending the wooden knife in his hand towards the Rakshasa Queen.
“Eh?
Why are his movements so slow?”
York, the bystander, couldn’t help but be astonished.
After Ye Tian’s burst of power, why did the speed of his moves not only fail to increase but actually slow down?
The wooden sword was sharp, yet his sword technique was unbelievably slow, baffling to comprehend.
Of course, these Westerners couldn’t comprehend the subtlety behind it!
The Rakshasa Queen, however, had already felt the threat of death from Ye Tian’s wooden sword.
She abruptly stepped back, dodging the blade, but her clothes were completely shredded by it.
“Worthy of being the Rakshasa Queen, she actually discerned my sword technique!”
Ye Tian sneered coldly.
After merging with the millennium ancient tree’s core, the astounding sword technique he deployed was no longer visible to the naked eye.
The reason York felt it was slow was because the afterimages of the wooden sword were connected together, similar to a helicopter’s propeller.
Only a powerhouse like the Rakshasa Queen could clearly see Ye Tian’s attack.
Of course, facing such a sword technique, even the Rakshasa Queen had no chance to counter!
“But that strike just now was just a warm-up; now comes the real attack!”
Ye Tian’s cold words were like the breath of the Grim Reaper.
The Rakshasa Queen, a powerhouse of this era, had never felt such despair in her life.
The King of the Night, along with his wooden sword, was enough to bestow death upon her, a formidable warrior!
Feeling terrified, the Rakshasa Queen couldn’t help but step back, but Ye Tian was relentless, moving directly forward.
The Rakshasa Queen stepped back again, and Ye Tian advanced once more…
Before she knew it, the Rakshasa Queen was driven to the seaside.
By now, the Rakshasa Queen had no way to flee, as she clearly understood her situation.
No matter how much she ran, with Ye Tian’s current speed, there was absolutely no escape.
“Hehe~~~”
Ye Tian sneered coldly, then swung his wooden sword from left to right, his speed still very slow.
“Can such a slow sword technique actually kill someone?”
York and others were astonished, but the Rakshasa Queen standing in front of Ye Tian was completely frozen.
Just then a lightning bolt struck, and Ye Tian’s sword move also stopped…
At this moment, the Rakshasa Queen didn’t move at all, but Ye Tian also stopped making any moves!
Ye Tian and the Rakshasa Queen, two unmatched powerhouses, faced each other and remained in a deadlock for a minute or two…
“What’s happening?
Did they make peace with a handshake?”
“I don’t know what’s going on; the two of them just stand there, what exactly are they doing?”
…
Several Westerners were at a loss; how could these two master combatants suddenly stop moving during their fight?
Just as York and others were bewildered, white electric sparks suddenly burst out from within the Rakshasa Queen’s body!
Sizzling, sizzling…
After a fierce sound of thunder and lightning, the Rakshasa Queen’s body began to collapse!!
Her arms, legs, torso, head…
Like sand, the once formidable warrior crumbled into a pile of gore!
York and the other Westerners were dumbfounded, how could Ye Tian’s unremarkable strike have sliced the Rakshasa Queen into pieces?
By then, Ye Tian had already sheathed his wooden sword, and at the same time, the lightning around him had also disappeared.
“It’s too terrifying…”
One of the Westerners sat down on the ground, unable to believe what had just happened.
What kind of sword technique had Ye Tian used to be so fearsome??
“…”
York too was completely taken aback.
The King of the Night’s power was so much greater than that of the Rakshasa Queen, to have torn her into pieces!
From the remains of the Rakshasa Queen, Ye Tian retrieved the crystal and the golden horn, both exceptionally hard treasures that hadn’t shattered under his formidable sword technique.
With this, Ye Tian’s strength could now be significantly enhanced!
Of course, at this moment, Ye Tian didn’t know how to properly use these two treasures…
“Quick, run!”
Not far from Ye Tian, one Westerner shouted, and all the onlookers wanted to flee.
But Ye Tian gave no chance for them to escape, appearing instantly in front of them with a staggering speed!
York and the others were stunned…
“Speak!
The passengers of Flight K541, where exactly are they?”
Ye Tian asked coldly, his voice filled with a killing intent that the Westerners could distinctly feel, meaning if they did not confess now, they might not live much longer.
“King of the Night, if we tell you, will you let us go?” York asked cautiously.
“If the information is true, you may leave, but if it’s false, none of you will survive!
Even if you run to the ends of the earth, you won’t escape!”
Ye Tian’s words sent shivers down the Westerners’ spines.
