“I’m in…”
As Cheryl’s voice rang in Alex’s divine sense, he was relieved yet a bit surprised.
Previously, he thought Cheryl could acquire a connection with his divine sense because she had once tested the poison with her body and obtained the energy from the sample of source blood. So, she managed to link to him through the source blood and a specific person from the Undying Clan.
Although now the Earth-devouring Demon Tree’s soul had left, Cheryl still could get in touch with him. So, there had to be another reason for this.
No matter what, this was a joyful matter.
“I saw her too!” Cheryl said to Alex in a faint voice.
Alex was startled. “You saw her? Who did you see?”
“It’s the woman who was talking to you just now,” Cheryl replied. “She… Is the source blood’s owner in my previous injection and has a lofty status in the Undying Clan! Alex, I wanted to tell you previously… Ever since the syringe injection of the source blood, I’ve often been able to form a certain connection of consciousness with her. I could see some bizarre contents through her vision. I thought it was a kind of illusion before this, but now I’m sure that this is something happening in reality.”
Alex recalled Lena’s words.
She said that the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld was a companion of a certain royal family in the Undying Clan. Hence, the person who had appeared in his mind palace earlier was not the Earth-devouring Demon Tree, but that queen.
‘She couldn’t be the Undying Clan’s supreme commander, right?’
Buzz!
Just as Alex was in a daze, a sudden change occurred at the location of Nine Heavens Tribe again.
The Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld became abnormally violent and abruptly rooted to its original spot. Then, he saw the terrain change, with bloody goo-like slobs covering the entire land. It devoured the land without prejudice before transforming it into Netherearth that constantly spewed deadly Chi every moment.
Alex ended the conversation with Cheryl.
Seeing the Earth-devouring Demon Tree before him, he felt that it had to be the queen’s disdain and provocation.
‘Do you look down on me?’
‘Do you think my achievement won’t surpass Ksitigarbha?’
‘Fine, I’ll show you. I, Alex Rockefeller, have dignity too!’
He was slightly angry.
“Ksitigarbha’s Ten Wheels Earth Incantation, Seal of Noble Light!”
“Ksitigarbha’s Ten Wheels Earth Incantation, Mahayana Righteous Seal!”
“Great Mighty Divine Palm!”
It still did not work.
Seeing the immovable demon tree all along, Alex was furious yet anxious. It was a severe dent to his dignity.
‘A queen, right?!’
‘I can’t do anything about your soul, but just you wait. When I find you later, I’ll conquer you on the spot over and over!’
‘I can’t defeat you right now, but can’t I even defeat a tree?’
Roar!
The ninety nine golden cores in his body spun non-stop. Then, suddenly, he jumped out abruptly.
