  A portion of the huge Human-Faced Peach Tree detached and slammed into the ground, stretching out for several thousand zhang!

  Just looking at it gave one a daunting feeling. Such a height was comparable to a large mountain!

  At this time, over half of the remaining one-third of the Human-Faced Peach Tree's main body had already squeezed through the spatial rift.

  The spatial rift created by the Human-Faced Peach Tree was not as simple as just teleporting tens to hundred li away!

  It wasn't a simple matter for the Human-Faced Peach Tree to tear open a spatial rift. But once it managed to do so, the distance it could travel through it would at the very least be calculated by 10,000 li as unit!

  Such a degree of strength was something that not even a peak level Yuanying expert could display. Although such experts had comprehended 10 percent of the spatial laws, they could only at most teleport for a thousand li!

  "Hmph! Wanting to run after committing such a great evil?!"

  A cold snort rang out, like a thunder from the heavens. When the sound appeared, entire space seemed to freeze, as if time was standing still!

  A huge shadow suddenly appeared high up in the sky. A heavy pressure burst out of it, blasting in all directions!

  "Damn it!"

  Bei Feng was first stunned, filled with fury. The fishing line was swept up by this heaven-shaking aura to god knows where.

  Seeing a land of desolation all around him, Bei Feng was angered to the point where he gnashed his teeth. The fishing line had been blown clean out of the city!

  A colossal figure had appeared in the sky above the city. Its size was so big that even the Human-Faced Peach Tree at its peak size was only like a small sapling in comparison!

  The figure was suspended in the air, but the Heaven and Earth Lingqi was all jumping wildly, as though rejoicing!

  "Fire!"

  The colossal figure opened his eyes abruptly and two lines of black flames shot out from them, instantly appearing beside the Human-Faced Peach Tree that hadn't stepped fully into the spatial rift!

  "Hehe, haha, run quickly, we're going to be cooked!"

  The huge face atop the Human-Faced Peach Tree was filled with panic. This flame was too strong—the instant it touched the tree, it burst in a huge ball of fire!

  Countless roots rose upwards and wrapped around the tree's body to try to snuff out the fire. Unfortunately, the fire actually burnt even faster and stronger!

  "Shatter!"

  The colossal figure once again looked at the Human-Faced Peach Tree and raised its gigantic arm, pointing out lightly.

  The large spatial rift instantly exploded with a shocking repulsive strength, forcefully spitting the Human-Faced Peach Tree that had almost crawled through it back out!

  "God Thunderfall!"

  An authoritative voice came out of the mouth of the colossal figure as a patch of dark clouds instantly appeared above the Human-Faced Peach Tree!

  This scene was exceptionally horrifying. It was as if the figure's word was law. It didn't need to do anything but speak whatever it desired, and the Heavens and Earth would obey!

  The countless streaks of purple-black lightning merged into nine 100 zhang lightning dragons which weaved through the clouds!

  The purple-black lightning rippled with terrifying might; the annihilation strength contained within it was even strong enough to make Incarnation stage cultivators fear it!

  "Ang!"

  The nine lightning dragons seemed to have become alive as they clawed out of the clouds and shot down at the Human-Faced Peach Tree!

  "Boom!"

  A heart-numbing noise like the skies collapsing and the ground breaking filled the entire area. Even with Han Zong's cultivation, he could not withstand the sound and spat out a mouthful of blood!

  Just the roars were enough to kill off every single person in the city. Only, apart from Han Zong, there weren't any other people left there.

  Fortunately, when the Human-Faced Peach Tree destroyed the defensive formation earlier, all the citizens who had been lucky enough to survive had rushed out of the area madly. At the same time, everyone swore in their hearts to never come back to this accursed place ever again!

  The size of each nine lightning dragons was incomparably huge. At this time, the nine lightning dragons bit onto each other's tails, forming a huge circle. Following that, they circled rapidly, forming into a rune pattern!

  Once the rune pattern appeared, all the lingqi in the area rushed backwards, surging into the rune pattern!

  "Hong-long!"

  A huge rumbling sound rang out as the rune pattern instantly dropping onto the Human-Faced Peach Tree!

  The nine lightning dragons formed into a lock, chaining the Human-Faced Peach Tree between them and then detonating!

  A small black dot appeared in the spot, and then began to expand rapidly to 100 zhang, 1,000 zhang, 10,000 zhang! In the end, it covered an entire 100 li area!

  The blackness encapsulated a tenth of the entire mega-city. Apart from the light muffle at the initial point of detonation, there were no other sounds.

  When the black light finally dissipated, all the structures in the area had all disappeared completely. A huge pit a hundred li wide had appeared on the ground!

  Not a single trace of the Human-Faced Peach Tree remained. It'd been cleanly disintegrated into powder by the nine lightning dragons. Under such a terrifying might, even Incarnation experts would feel their scalps grow numb!

  At this time, Bei Feng's fishing time limit was already up as well. With an attitude of not leaving empty handed, Bei Feng could only latch the hook onto a 100 zhang tall stone statue outside the city.

  "What a pity, the vision range of the fishing hook is too small. It'd be great if I could see further," Bei Feng grumbled with some unwillingness.

  The time for each fishing attempt was limited. Although he was a grade 4 Fisherman now, and the time limit was longer, it was not unlimited.

  From his observation, grade 4 Fisherman could open the portal for four hours. Whether or not he caught anything when those four hours were up, the portal would still close.

  Although the stone statue was huge, it could not resist Bei Feng's strength. With the special strength augmentative effect of the fishing rod, the entire stone statue was lifted up slowly into the sky without much effort.

  Far away, the colossal figure in the sky sent his mental power out, and after confirming that the Human-Faced Peach Tree was destroyed, it began to dissipate.

  This colossal figure had been formed with countless amounts of Heaven and Earth Lingqi. The controller behind the colossal figure was actually numerous tens of thousand li away, and had been unleashing his attacks from a great distance!

  Han Zong's eyes blazed with ambition. This was the kind of strength he wanted to reach; the power to destroy all his enemies with the flick of a finger!

  "Yi?! Even a stone statue can fly?"

  Han Zong lay on the ground, tending to his injuries. He had been hurt rather severely. As he raised his head, he saw that a stone statue was actually flying through the air!

  Han Zong was completely speechless. Did this stone statue suddenly gain intelligence and consciousness?

  Before he entered the city, Han Zong had looked at this statue in passing. The statue was exquisite beyond compare, but it was made from very average materials only.

  It was actually carved from a piece of rock from a spirit mountain by a sculpture master.

  At best, it was a sturdier spirit rock—how could something like that fly away by itself?

  It was true that the Myriad Worlds had spiritual objects that had obtained consciousness. But the conditions to reach such a level were not something a desolate city like this could fulfill.

  A million years ago, a piece of divine metal managed to obtain consciousness and, within a short hundred years, ascended to the higher realm!

  280,000 years ago, a stalk of spirit herb managed to cultivate a human form and also ascended to the higher realm, leaving behind countless legends.

  Bei Feng was not in the mood to care so much. He only felt extremely bitter in this moment.

  He'd prepared so painstakingly, and although he did not see the full appearance of the large tree, he could see a bunch of powerful cultivators fighting and snatching around it. This led him to believe that the tree had to be an extremely good thing.

  But when he tried to fish up this huge tree the first time, the hook had actually been broken!

  The second time, when he finally managed to get near to it after much effort, the line was blown out of the city.

  In the end, he'd been forced to reel in a stone statue because the time limit was up.
