The vines pierced straight through He Xuan's body without the slightest obstruction. The seated He Xuan was instantly torn apart by the terrifyingly sharp energy, his body splitting into pieces before scattering away.
No blood splashed, nor did flesh fly. He Xuan's body simply vanished amid the raging attack energy.
A roar rang out. The towering Tree Demon Nether Soul suddenly turned around, its crimson eyes immediately locking onto another location.
In that direction, He Xuan's body appeared, still seated.
He Xuan moved his fingers, and various figures around him swooped in, once again surrounding and blocking the towering Tree Demon Nether Soul. Claws and fangs flashed, thick feet and arms swept across the air, booming explosions rang out, and raging energy surged—clearly far more violently than before.
Facing this Tree Demon Nether Soul, He Xuan understood that he could only make up for his shortcomings in realm and strength through sheer numbers.
Dozens or hundreds of Nether Soul Ghostly Creatures let out roar after roar and fearlessly swooped forward. Using their own bodies, they surged one after another to block the tall and terrifying Tree Demon Nether Soul, greatly reducing its speed.
Yet in that instant, He Xuan's expression turned tense, because two equally massive and strange Nether Soul Ghostly Creatures had approached right in front of him through his divine sense.
The bodies of these two Nether Souls were entirely different. One resembled a ferocious beast like a giant porcupine, its body covered in row upon row of sharp spines. The other was an awakened strange stone with eight-branched antlers, its entire body wrapped in hard stone armor, making it impossible to tell where its head was.
Without exception, the auras radiating from the two Nether Souls were terrifying, far stronger even than that Tree Demon Nether Soul.
