Chapter 181 What's There to Be Afraid Of?
Chapter 181 What is there to be afraid of? Lu Yize made several spatial leaps, dodging the attacks from the tree roots while simultaneously conjuring spatial black holes with both hands and attacking the other upside-down corpses hanging from the tree canopy.
Jiang Yue and the Fifth Squad Leader followed closely behind him, dodging the attack. They also noticed that the moment the corpses hanging from the trees fell to the ground, they instantly turned into fragments.
It rotted at the tree roots and dissipated into the air, like burnt paper that turned to powder at the slightest touch.
Jiang Yue possesses psychic abilities and can clearly sense the tree in front of her. As the corpses on her body fall off, her abilities are constantly diminishing. It is these corpses that provide her with power!
Clearly, not only Jiang Yue had thought of this, but the Fifth Squad Leader also understood the importance of these corpses to this strange plant.
Without hesitation, he unleashed his dark green light-based power, slicing off the corpse hanging from the giant tree canopy.
As the corpses fell or were destroyed, the tree before it was enraged, shouting, "How dare you, you mere ants!"
"Why don't you dare."
As soon as Lu Yize finished speaking, he used a spatial black hole to cut off the tree canopy closest to him. All the corpses on the canopy were taken into his supernatural space, without even giving it a chance to absorb the residue.
Jiang Yue noticed Lu Yize's actions and, as if she had understood something, jumped onto the tree trunk and turned her head to control the sea beasts and monsters that had become dried corpses.
The fifth squad leader looked surprised. Not only him, but even Lu Yize was somewhat taken aback.
Previously, Jiang Yueng could only control sentient beings; this was the first time he had seen Jiang Yueng control these mindless corpses.
However, Lu Yize quickly realized that no, Jiang Yue could still control sentient beings.
She manipulates the last vestiges of resentment left on these corpses.
These manipulated sea monsters and strange beasts, after being imbued with Jiang Yue's supernatural power, instantly severed the shackles binding them and broke free from the tree's restraints.
Jiang Yue not only mentally controlled these creatures, but also kept her hands busy, cutting off several huge branches to peel the corpses off the tree.
Enraged, the tree grabbed Jiang Yue's ankle with its vines. Jiang Yue couldn't dodge in time, and just as she was about to be pulled away, Lu Yize broke through space and grabbed Jiang Yue's hand.
Jiang Yue took the opportunity to cut the vines that were wrapped around her feet. Lu Yize looked up and found that the giant tree in front of him, which was annoyed, was gradually closing its canopy, trying to hide its treasures.
Lu Yize smiled; this was the opportunity he had been waiting for. Just as the tree canopy was about to close, Lu Yize threw several of the most aggressive stored monsters into the center of the canopy.
As it closed in, the canopy paused, then erupted with a burst of powerful energy, with fire and lightning—the two most feared powers of the plant type—raging across the plant.
This white space is a cage built for this giant tree, which limits its strength and prevents it from exerting its full potential, but at the same time, it allows it to continue its predatory behavior and accumulate power.
It is conceivable that as long as it is within this white space, the giant tree in front of it cannot exert its strength as a sixth-order being. Its power source is controlled, which is why it uses the body of a sea beast as a medium to store its supernatural power.
The people who imprisoned it here were locked in a power struggle with the giant tree, but they probably never expected that Lu Yize and others, whom they regarded as ants or food, would become the variable.
The lightning and fire elemental powers within the storage ring continued to burn and release, and the interaction between the two forces intensified the attack. The giant tree that had spread throughout the entire white space roared in anger due to the explosion inside.
Immediately afterwards, several rotting and burning black hole spaces appeared around Lu Yize and the others. Angry giant trees stretched out their branches toward them, and black and red eyes kept overflowing with black sap, trying to devour, trying to devour the superpowers of these people!
The branches that pierced towards them twisted and became sharp. As Jiang Yue quickly dodged, she reached out and cut off these sharp branches. Lu Yize's spatial blade cleaved the rushing roots.
The Fifth Squad Leader formed a dark green halo around the two of them, which just happened to block one of the attacks for Jiang Yue.
The tree branch was blocked by the light circle. The Fifth Squad Leader, who was most sensitive to data, turned to Lu Yize and said, "Its ability has been weakened. It is now probably at the fourth level!"
Trapped in this exclusive space, with its source of power destroyed, Lu Yize was still able to unleash the strength of a fourth-tier being. After several spatial jumps, he appeared in front of the giant tree.
Such a powerful creature, unknown to anyone in his previous life, is now imprisoned in this cage specially built for him.
A strange sense of violence and excitement made Lu Yize's eyes turn red, as if he were bewitched or provoked. The ball of light he gathered in his hand fell from the treetop and viciously gouged out its trunk.
Touching the trunk of this giant tree, which had sprouted a human face, it turned out to be no different from an ordinary tree. The tree in front of him was injured in a vital spot, and roared in pain, swinging its branches to whip Lu Yize.
Lu Yize retreated several spatial teleports in a row, and then suddenly lunged forward, throwing the black hole that appeared in his hand at the crystal core of the tree in front of him.
All the branches that were attacking frantically quickly retracted and wrapped around the giant tree's body. But the next moment, the giant tree opened its eyes and found that the person standing in front of it was not the space-type ability user at all!
It's a zombie using psychic abilities!
Oh no! The giant tree realized it had just been mentally invaded for a moment, but it was too late to react.
Enveloped in a dark green light and hidden in the tree canopy, Lu Yize grinned and said with a hint of regret, "I'll accept your crystal core."
The giant tree bowed its head and found that its trunk was being gradually corroded by the black hole. It tried to escape but found itself stuck in place, its means of attack restricted. Lu Yize reached out and touched its crystal core.
Lu Yize suddenly gripped the sixth-order crystal core deep inside the tree trunk. The black sap flowing from the tree trunk corroded his arm, but he seemed oblivious.
"No, no—!!!" The giant tree's roar gradually grew more rugged.
The giant tree that had originally enveloped the entire white space began to wither and shrink at a visible speed, gradually dissipating and crumbling. The giant tree went from struggling to resentful, and then to constantly shouting, all in the blink of an eye.
Before he dissipated, the white space suddenly began to tremble, and alarms sounded all around.
The originally white space was now flashing with green light, and a sharp, piercing sound instantly mobilized the entire laboratory's armed forces, with orderly footsteps advancing from all sides.
The moment the giant tree disappeared, Lu Yize grabbed Jiang Yue, using his superpower to envelop the Fifth District Captain as well. He then pushed his superpower to its limit, breaking through the remaining confinement and connecting to the space.
Lu Yize vanished just before the monsters entered.
