*Crack*…
At that moment, a branch of the Blood Maple Flame Tree developed a crack and fell to the ground. The fallen branch withered rapidly, its leaves turning brittle in an instant.
Ye Wushuang’s voice remained calm as he spoke, “Do you think I only recognized the Blood Maple Flame Tree without knowing its true power?”
Liu Yiyu was taken aback.
“The Blood Maple Flame Tree thrives in the most peculiar of places—where blood flows abundantly and the land is scorching hot. To make it bear seeds, it must be nurtured with fresh blood!”
“How many lives do you think your Liu Clan has sacrificed to cultivate this tree and produce its seeds?”
Liu Yiyu’s brows furrowed.
“Such a spiritual tree, when fused with a warrior’s bloodline, becomes one with them. With your awakened Liu Clan Wood Spirit Bloodline, you can fully control this tree and achieve perfect harmony with it!”
“The true marvel of this tree is that when you face a fatal blow, it can absorb the damage for you, ensuring that you remain unharmed!”
Hearing Ye Wushuang reveal the secret power of the Blood Maple Flame Tree, Liu Yiyu’s anger surged within him.
“So what if you know?” Liu Yiyu snorted coldly. “I am one with the Blood Maple Flame Tree. Any attack you launch will be absorbed by it. Once you exhaust your spiritual energy, you will surely die!”
“Oh?” Ye Wushuang sneered. “So the great Liu Yiyu, one of the top ten prodigies of the Heavenly Academy, plans to defeat a mere third-tier Yuanfu Realm warrior from the Ye Clan by relying on this tree?”
Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyu’s face turned ugly.
But compared to death, even if the victory was less than glorious, what did it matter?
“Moreover… by invoking this tree, you have already admitted that your attacks cannot kill me. You can only endure my strikes!”
“How do you know that I… cannot break through your Blood Maple Flame Tree?”
Break through?
Hearing this, Liu Yiyu laughed loudly, “Break through? Not even ten warriors at the tenth tier of the Yuanfu Realm could possibly shatter it!”
“Is that so?”
Ye Wushuang gripped the Tianya Sword tightly, then looked at Liu Yiyu and the Blood Maple Flame Tree, and said calmly, “Let’s see just how much damage this Blood Maple Flame Tree can withstand!”
With these words, Ye Wushuang’s figure darted forward.
“Dominating the Sun and Moon!”
The fifth move of the Six-Element Unity Sword Technique was unleashed.
As the sword was drawn, it seemed as if the sunlight and moonlight were riding alongside it, plunging downward.
Liu Yiyu swung his spear to block the attack, but the overwhelming power of the sword energy was too strong. All the attacks fell upon him and then disappeared.
*Crack, crack*…
Then, more branches of the Blood Maple Flame Tree behind him snapped off and fell to the ground, withering away instantly.
Seeing this, Liu Yiyu was stunned.
What was this guy trying to do?
Did he really think he could single-handedly shatter the Blood Maple Flame Tree?
A pipe dream!
“Stop dreaming!” Liu Yiyu swung his spear at Ye Wushuang, his black hair glowing with a crystalline light as the Wood Spirit Bloodline fully erupted.
The Blood Maple Flame Tree not only absorbed the attacks for him but also amplified his own strength.
At this moment, Liu Yiyu’s momentum was incredibly close to the peak of the Yuanfu Realm. The power released from his eight spiritual energy palaces was even more formidable than that of nine palaces.
“Die!”
The spear lunged forward, but Ye Wushuang neither dodged nor evaded. He struck back with full force.
“Trampling the Mountains and Rivers!”
The sixth move of the Six-Element Unity Sword Technique.
The sword was raised high, with the sword energy condensing into a beam of light hundreds of feet long. Ye Wushuang grasped the sword with both hands and delivered a powerful strike.
The sword cut through the air like the wind, and the killing intent rained down like a storm.
The hundreds-of-feet-long sword beam slashed down from the sky.
Liu Yiyu swept his spear horizontally to block the sword.
*Boom*…
The entire battlefield trembled at that moment.
This was no longer a battle between a third-tier Yuanfu Realm warrior and an eighth-tier one; it was a life-or-death duel that rivaled the peak of the Yuanfu Realm.
*Boom*!!!
Liu Yiyu’s body could not withstand the ferocity of the sword energy and was sent flying backward.
However, the damage from the sword beam was entirely transferred to the Blood Maple Flame Tree, causing more branches to fall.
Liu Yiyu was filled with despair!
He had exerted his attacks to the utmost, but he simply could not shatter Ye Wushuang’s sword energy.
A swordsman with a small mastery of sword intent was truly terrifying.
But he hadn’t lost yet!
He still had hope!
Ye Wushuang would absolutely not be able to break through the Blood Maple Flame Tree. Once Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy was exhausted, he would be the one to die.
Seeing the fear in Liu Yiyu’s eyes, Ye Wushuang sneered, “Are you scared?”
“Scared? I would never be afraid of you,” Liu Yiyu replied, though his voice lacked conviction.
“Don’t be afraid now,” Ye Wushuang tightened his grip on the sword and said with a smile, “The real fear is yet to come.”
