The aura Qing He was exuding at that moment was utterly different from the upright, peaceful vitality of the Azure Wood Longevity Art cultivated by ordinary disciples of Spiritual Plant Peak.
"Begin!"
Elder Qingxu's voice broke the frozen stillness in the arena.
Qing He's slender jade hands traced one mysterious arc after another before her, and vast, pure azure wood-element energy surged out of her delicate body like an erupting volcano, instantly filling the entire Training Ground.
Ten Thousand Woods Meet Spring, Arrival of the Forest!
Qing He's vermilion lips parted, releasing a string of ancient, mysterious syllables. As she chanted, the ground for hundreds of miles around her turned into the most fertile soil, and one oddly ancient tree after another burst from the earth like bamboo shoots after rain.
The trunks of these trees were blue-black, incomparably thick, their bark rough like dragon scales and exuding a cold, hard, metallic sheen.
Their branches and leaves were lush. Every leaf was as large as a palm-leaf fan, a deep ink-green, while the veins were a strange pale gold, faintly flowing with light and exuding an ancient yet aggressively vibrant life aura.
In almost the blink of an eye, thousands of wondrous giant trees had packed themselves across nearly half the Training Ground, and they were still spreading and multiplying outward at an astonishing speed.
Countless thick branches, like living things, lashed and extended wildly through the air with sharp whistles, surging toward Chen Fei at the center of the arena from every direction like a green tidal wave.
"This is... the Azure Wood Longevity Art? No, the aura is completely different."
"What terrifying wood-element energy. These trees really do look like ancient divine trees."
"Senior Sister Qing He really did hide her strength. Is this her true trump card?"
