Chapter 227: Strange Core
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The roots of the strange tree gathered again and whipped fiercely. Lin Sen gritted his teeth and endured the immense pain. His right leg swept out and kicked the roots, immediately causing it to take a few steps back.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he raised the huge sword in his hand again and slashed at the abdomen of the strange tree.
There was a thick layer of skin on the abdomen of the strange tree blocking Lin Sen’s sword, such that it could only cut through the skin but not cause any damage.
In the crown of the strange tree, the tree spirit smiled when it saw this.
Crack!
Suddenly, an extremely thick tree root suddenly drilled through the thick skin, near Lin Sen’s ankle, and stabbed into his ankle.
Instantly, a numb feeling surged through his entire body.
“Crap!” This thought flashed through his mind.
The energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life in Lin Sen’s body swam crazily, directly expelling the several strands that had invaded his body!
When the few roots encountered the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, they quickly melted into water droplets and finally dissipated.
However, Lin Sen’s movements became much slower. He felt as if his body had become heavier and his movements had slowed down.
The strange tree took this opportunity to condense countless thin needles from its branches and shoot them at him.
“Ding, ding, ding-” The tiny needles pricked his body, making a crisp sound.
Then, Lin Sen heard a wail coming from the branch. The needle on the branch was actually destroyed by an incomparably powerful force!
This made the tree spirit extremely angry. It controlled the branches of the tree to condense dense needles again and shot them once more.
However, these thin needles were still destroyed by Lin Sen’s brute force.
Roar! The strange tree was furious. It opened its mouth and snarled at him.
In an instant, the leaves condensed on the roots scattered. Then, pitch-black smoke actually emerged from them.
This black smoke spread continuously and enveloped Lin Sen.
He felt that the black smoke was extremely poisonous. He hurriedly held his breath. The black smoke stopped spreading five meters away. The energy of the
Kabbalah Tree of Life formed a barrier around him, blocking the corrosion of the poisonous fog. Moreover, the barrier was also devouring the toxins released by the strange tree spirit.
Although the toxins of the strange tree spirit were powerful, they were far inferior to those released by poison-type beasts. Moreover, the toxins were only mediocre and did not affect the power of the Kabbalah Tree of Life at all. These toxins would be absorbed after being devoured, so Lin Sen’s body could completely withstand it.
The strange tree was not surprised to see such a scene. Clearly, it had expected this.
It spat out dozens of forks again and stabbed at Lin Sen. Those forks were aimed at Lin Sen’s arms.
Lin Sen snorted coldly. He held the huge sword in his hand and slashed, instantly breaking them.
However, the strange tree’s roots condensed again right after that.
This time, the strange tree’s attack was even sharper. Its roots were like living creatures. One by one, they jumped up from the ground and pounced on Lin
Sen’s body like poisonous snakes. The dozens of roots stabbed at him from all
directions.
The huge sword in his hand kept swinging, cutting off the roots one by one.
However, after the few roots were cut off, they immediately grew again. This cycle repeated, and Lin Sen gradually could not withstand it anymore.
Several bloody holes were pierced through his body by the tree roots, but he was not bothered.
This was because he discovered that there was a key point at the core of the trunk of the strange tree. It seemed to be its energy core!
As long as he could destroy the core, he could easily kill it!
Lin Sen’s gaze was fixed on the core of the strange tree. He held the huge sword in his hand and slashed down ruthlessly, splitting the two huge roots of the strange tree.
They instantly lost their balance and fell.
Lin Sen followed up with two consecutive slashes and to break off the roots. Then, he cut off the two tree roots with all his might.
Soon, only a thick trunk and the core of the strange fruit tree were left.
At this moment, the strange tree also paused for a moment.
Lin Sen seized the opportunity. He held the huge sword and smashed it fiercely at the huge tree.
Boom!
The entire strange tree shook.
A deep dent appeared in the trunk.
Moreover, Lin Sen’s sword also contained the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, so after the trunk was smashed open, it immediately collapsed and shattered. The strange tree’s body trembled a few times and completely lost its combat strength.
Lin Sen kicked the trunk and smashed it to the ground. Then, he raised his head and looked at the tree spirit.
At this moment, a large amount of blood flowed out of his chest.
However, the rich power of the Kabbalah Tree of Life was constantly healing Lin Sen’s injuries.
Lin Sen did not have the time to catch his breath. He gripped his huge sword and rushed crazily towards the strange tree.
He had to cut off its core! Otherwise, he would not be able to completely destroy it!
Lin Sen charged in front of the strange tree and suddenly jumped high to the top of the strange tree’s trunk. Then, he raised his sword and stabbed it into the root!
This time, the sword was not rebounded. Instead, it successfully stabbed into the root core of the strange tree.
Plkch. A sound rang out.
Then, the strange tree’s body began to tremble, and its branches swayed.
Lin Sen’s huge sword was pulled out of the body of the strange tree spirit. The tree immediately fell to the ground. After twitching a few times, it stopped moving.
“Phew…” Lin Sen exhaled.
He had been in great danger just now. The trunk of the strange tree was incomparably hard, and it was very difficult to find the key point from the trunk. If not for the energy of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, Lin Sen probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything to the strange tree spirit even with a huge sword.
“D*mn human! How dare you provoke the great divine tree! You deserve to die!” The strange tree spirit roared angrily.
Lin Sen ignored it. His attention was all on his fatal blow just now.
Just now, Lin Sen had used the power of the Kabbalah Tree of Life to destroy the core of the strange tree spirit, causing its power to weaken.
“This tree trunk’s defense is really strong!” Lin Sen sighed and dug out the core!
Immediately, the huge body of the strange tree collapsed!
Lin Sen was very shocked because he realized that the core was actually a
pitch -black longsword!
