In the tree courtyard, Iryena looked at the golden barrier with a solemn expression. This wasn’t the first time Du Huanfeng had done this.
Every time he attacked, it would consume a hefty amount of best-grade Profound Stones Yun Lintian left behind. If this continued, the formation would only last for another two months at most. She had to find a way to deal with Du Huanfeng.
“Mother, do you want to go out and catch him?” Nienna seemed to see through her mother’s thoughts.
Iryena replied. “Yes… The problem is his divine artifact. As long as he decided to hide in it, it is very difficult to break it.”
Nienna nodded thoughtfully. Although Iryena’s strength was far stronger than Du Huanfeng’s people combined, it was still difficult to capture him alive.
“Why don’t we kill him directly, Your Majesty? It doesn’t matter how high status he has. No one knows we’ve buried him here.” Yavanna expressed her thoughts.
Iryena shook her head. “We don’t know the situation outside. Sect Master said the power behind this person is not small. Sect Master’s friends could be in danger because of our reckless action.” ．
She thought for a moment and said. “Let’s wait longer. Perhaps Sect Master would wake up soon.”
Outside the village, Du Huanfeng looked at the barrier gloomily and said coldly. “Don’t you need to do something?”
“All you need to do is continue attacking. Wait until the Tree of Life becomes weaker, and these formations will be nothing.” The Dragon of Death’s voice resounded in Du Huanfeng’s mind.
“Hmph!” Du Huanfeng had long been upset with this Dragon of Death, but he still needed him in order to get the Tree of Life. After all, there was a powerful figure inside the village.
Thinking of this, he wondered why the so-called Heavenly Wood Spirit’s Queen didn’t come out to fight him. What was she waiting for?
While both sides were thinking. On the Tree of Life, Yun Lintian suddenly opened his eyes, and two streaks of blood flowed along his cheeks. His eyes were bloody, and his face distorted in grief and anger.
At the same time, boundless killing intent was instantly spread throughout the entire Misty Forest, causing everyone to involuntarily shiver in fright.
Linlin was the closest person to Yun Lintian. She was startled at first and turned into worry. “What happened to you, Big Brother Yun!?… Hurry up, Lauya! Do something!”
Lauya didn’t say anything. She extended her branches to wrap around Yun Lintian’s body and emitted a green, soothing light.
Swoosh—
Iryena appeared before the Tree of Life and glanced upward to look at Yun Lintian in confusion. She thought that it was the Dragon of Death, but it wasn’t the case now… Why did Yun Lintian release such horrible killing intent? What was going on here?
Meanwhile, Du Huanfeng’s group was no different. They completely stopped their actions and looked toward the Tree of Life solemnly. Each of them here was a veteran with countless lives in their hands, yet none of them possessed a killing intent as intense as this one… Just how many lives had fallen in his hand?
“Is it you?” Du Huanfeng regained his sense and asked.
“Interesting…” Dragon of Death’s voice resounded. “This little boy surely has a big secret.”
“What do you mean?” Du Huanfeng frowned.
“Don’t you know him? That boy named Mu Chen.” Dragon of Death asked.
“You’re telling me that this killing intent belongs to him? How could it be possible?” Du Huanfeng said in disbelief. “I admit that he’s indeed strong, but he’s clearly an eighteen-year-old boy. How could he possess this terrifying killing intent? Is he killing people since he was in the womb?”
The more he thought, the more ridiculous he felt. It was difficult for Du Huanfeng to believe it.
“Kekeke…There are many things in this world you don’t know about it.” Dragon of Death laughed slightly and said nothing more.
Du Huanfeng calmed down and asked. “What to do now?”
“Wait. Our chance is coming soon.” Dragon of Death said lightly.
Yun Lintian’s negative emotions undoubtedly added a burden to the Tree of Life. Lauya had to spend more of the Tree of Life’s power in order to calm Yun Lintian down. With this, the Dragon of Death could feel the suppression around him had weakened to a certain degree. Now, he wished nothing more than to urge Yun Lintian to release his killing intent more.
In the Land of Beyond Heaven, Yun Ruanyu, Yun Qingrou, Yun Huanxin, and Yun Meilan were watching the scene worriedly. They had no idea what happened to Yun Lintian.
“Princess Hongyue, what exactly happened to him?” Yun Qingrou couldn’t help asking.
Hongyue stared at Yun Lintian’s bloody eyes for a while and said calmly. “He’s experiencing his past life.”
“Past life? You mean before he came to this world?” Yun Huanxin asked in surprise.
Hongyue went silent for a moment and said. “In fact, the Tree of Life has another name. It is called the Tree of Samsara. If you took a single drop of its dew, you would experience one of your past lives.”
Yun Ruanyu and others glanced at each other in shock. Although they believed in the concept of a cycle of Samsara, it was, after all, too far from them. A droplet of this tree’s dew could actually let them experience their past life?
“But why now? Shouldn’t he just integrate with the Tree of Life?” Yun Qingrou frowned. She didn’t care much about the Tree of Life but worried more about Yun Lintian.
“Have any of you noticed Lintian is holding something to himself for all this time?” Hongyue suddenly asked.
Among them, Yun Qingrou was the closest to Yun Lintian. She naturally perceived something from Yun Lintian, but she didn’t ask about it before.
“Something bad happened to him in his past life?” Yun Ruanyu suddenly asked. With her sharp perception, she immediately understood something.
Hongyue smiled mockingly. “Bad? It’s more than that… You cannot imagine what he had been through in his countless life cycles.”
