Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 537 - 318: Intercept and Capture Ling_2

...

At this time, Ye Feng had already teleported back to Tianhe City.

The location he emerged was directly above the ruins.

Without the suppression of the Land of Inheritance, his size returned to normal, and due to still being in the state of invoking the Law of Heaven and Earth, his size was twice as large as usual.

It’s important to know that after his breakthrough to the Seventh Order, his Tree Body had reached a height of 13,585 meters; under the state of Law of Heaven and Earth, it was now over 27,000 meters tall.

Moreover, it wasn’t just the height that was enormous; Ye Feng’s canopy was nearly as broad as it was high, measuring close to 30,000 meters, or 30 kilometers in width.

It gave the impression of blotting out the sky and sun.

The troops stationed near the ruins all looked up at him, their faces etched with undisguised shock.

However, Ye Feng’s gaze merely swept over them before looking into the distance.

Then it was his turn to be surprised.

Because he noticed at a glance that the entire Tianhe City was deserted, as if the millions of inhabitants had vanished into thin air.

His first thought was that everyone in the city had been slaughtered, but that notion was quickly dismissed by himself.

He and the Ferocious Beast Spectral emerged one after the other, and even if its strength hadn’t been suppressed to the Sixth Order, it couldn’t have killed everyone in the city in such a short span of time, even if it had remained in the Late Stage of the Eighth Order.

At that moment, his spiritual power spread out, pervading in all directions, and he quickly locked onto the 6 strongmen in the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area.

After coming out, they scattered around the ancient ruins.

Now, as they were fleeing in panic, they also looked up in terror at the true body of Ye Feng that appeared in the sky.

Upon seeing these people, a cold light flashed in Ye Feng’s eyes, and he immediately controlled the tree roots beneath him to sweep towards them.

Just as he moved, the Ferocious Beast Spectral, as if prepared, took out a Jade Pendant and shouted, "Don’t force me to fight to the death! If I really burst forth, I can take a whole city with me as a funeral escort."

Ye Feng paused slightly, recognizing the object in the opponent’s hand - it was one of the items from the Heritage Land Treasury, called the Teleporting Jade Pendant.

Its function was simple: it served as a means for teleporting to escape.

This item had three levels, each capable of teleporting 100 kilometers, 1,000 kilometers, and 10,000 kilometers respectively.

Of course, there were also differences in their prices: 500 points, 2,000 points, and 5,000 points.

In fact, this was also something Ye Feng had once been tempted to buy as a life-preserving measure, but now unexpectedly, he saw it in the hands of his opponent.

The Teleporting Jade Pendant held by Spectral was of the lowest grade, which could only teleport in a specified direction, covering a maximum distance of 100 kilometers.

This distance wasn’t enough to allow it to teleport directly back to the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area.

Although it couldn’t teleport back to the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area, it could still be used to directly teleport into the nearby cities and then go on a killing rampage.

Ye Feng was well aware that if an Eighth Order Strongman really fought desperately, burning the Life Origin, they could indeed temporarily negate the suppression of the Power of Heaven and Earth.

In other words, the opponent truly had the capacity to destroy an entire city.

"Okay, then you can leave," Ye Feng vibrated the air with his spiritual power to speak and stopped the tree roots that were entangling towards the opponent.

But the other roots didn’t stop; they swiftly bound the 5 Seventh Order Strongmen, including Ling and Tian Yun, who he had fought with before.

Although these few Seventh Order Strongmen were desperately resisting, their efforts were futile.

With their Realms suppressed to the Sixth Order, the gap in strength between them and Ye Feng was simply too great.

Because Ye Feng had cultivated the Divine Wood God Body, even in the state of Sixth Order Peak, the strength of his tree roots could rival that of the Late Stage Seventh Order.

Not to mention that he was still in the state of invoking the Law of Heaven and Earth.

In the face of this overwhelming strength, regardless of how intensely they unleashed their Burst Secret Skills, it was all in vain; they could only watch in horror as they were gradually bound.

"What are you doing? Let them go," cried Spectral angrily and anxiously.

"I only agreed to let you go, but I never said I would release them."

"What’s the matter? Don’t want to leave, planning to stay and join them in death?" Ye Feng’s somewhat disdainful voice echoed through the realm.

"If I abandon them and flee alone, it’s also a dead end, so I might as well fight you to the end," Spectral’s eyes filled with madness.

And the Teleporting Jade Pendant in its grasp began to emanate weak spatial fluctuations, as if it could be activated at any moment.

Seeing this, Ye Feng frowned slightly.

He wasn’t sure whether the opponent was being truthful.

If it was true, and returning also meant death for the opponent, then choosing to fight to death was a certainty.

Ye Feng looked down at the 5 Seventh Order Strongmen, now tightly bound by his tree roots.

Those who had once posed a life-or-death crisis to him at the Seventh Order were now unable to withstand a single move in his hands.

They no longer posed any threat to him, and trading their lives for the lives of an entire city was certainly a worthwhile exchange.

With that thought in mind, Ye Feng slowly sent out his voice, "Alright, the death penalty can be spared, but the living punishment is unavoidable."
