C1062 Runes on the Trunk

"Those patterns should be the runes on this big tree." Zhou Yan looked at the big tree and thought to himself.

"The runes on this big tree are too complicated. I need to spend a lot of time studying them. I wonder if the runes on this big tree can explain the questions in my heart. " Zhou Yan thought to himself.

Zhou Yan observed the big tree carefully. Suddenly, he noticed a faint fluctuation on the trunk of the big tree. Although the fluctuation was very subtle, it still could not escape Zhou Yan's eyes.

"Could it be that the runes on this tree are alive?" Zhou Yan said in surprise.

After that, he placed his palm on the trunk of the big tree and started to circulate his Genuine Qi to transfer it to the tree.

"Hmm?"

"No, I transferred my Genuine Qi to the tree, but the runes did not react at all." Zhou Yan frowned slightly.

"The runes on the big tree are too strange. How could this be?" Zhou Yan could not believe what he was seeing.

"Is it really as I guessed?" Zhou Yan muttered to himself.

"No matter what, I have to give it a try."

Zhou Yan took a deep breath and then struck out with both of his palms. When his Genuine Qi was transferred to the big tree, the tree trunk began to tremble slightly.

Zhou Yan saw that the shaking of the big tree was getting more and more intense. Finally, the entire big tree began to move forward slowly.

As the tree moved forward, the runes on the tree trunk began to flicker, and white pillars of light shot up into the sky.

Zhou Yan saw that these white pillars of light contained a terrifying power of lightning. This power of lightning seemed to be able to destroy all living things in the world.

"These bolts of lightning are indeed the Extreme Purple Lightning. As expected of the Heavenly Tribulation," Zhou Yan muttered to himself.

"What exactly is engraved on the trunk of this giant tree?" Zhou Yan asked curiously.

At this moment, under Zhou Yan's gaze, the roots of the giant tree began to descend.

As the giant tree descended, it brought with it a sudden gust of wind.

"Whoosh, woosh, woosh ~" Rays of white light shot out from the big tree and landed on the ground, turning into young men in black. They stood on the ground with swords in their hands.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" When Zhou Yan saw the appearance of these young men in black, his face revealed a surprised expression.

"We are the guards of this valley. You trespassing into our territory has already violated our rules." One of the young men looked at Zhou Yan and said coldly.

Hearing the young man's words, Zhou Yan laughed: "Are you guards? Why do I feel like you are assassins? Assassins have no emotions."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How can we be assassins? Don't you know we are guards?" The young man rebuked angrily.

"Warriors? Hehe, I think you guys are assassins," Zhou Yan said.

"Humph, assassins, we are assassins. We are assassins, so we must have the dignity of assassins. You are just a mere human. You have no right to comment on our professions. " The other young man shouted angrily.

"Oh? Then, let's give it a try. Should I be the stronger one, or should you be the stronger one?"

After hearing Zhou Yan's words, the young men all pulled out the long swords at their waists and prepared to fight with Zhou Yan.

"Since you guys want to fight so much, then I will fight with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a sword light burst out from Zhou Yan's body and stabbed towards him. This sword strike was full of power, and the edge of the sword was filled with a thick killing intent, causing people to tremble in fear.

"So powerful."

"Even ordinary cultivators at the Divine Lord Realm might not be able to withstand this attack, let alone me, if this sword strike were to land on my body, my body would probably be instantly destroyed."1

The speed of the sword light was simply too fast. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan's expression remained calm. With a light flick of his right hand, a sword light rushed out of his palm and met the sword strike.

"Bam ~"

As the two sword lights collided with each other, a loud sound erupted.

"Puchi."

The sword light pierced through the young man's chest, and blood gushed out from the young man's chest, dyeing the stone wall behind him red.

"You're not guards, you're assassins!"

Zhou Yan saw that there was no emotion in the eyes of these guards at all. There was only coldness. These assassins were not ordinary assassins, but assassins born to kill cultivators.

"You do have a bit of strength. However, this level of strength cannot change the outcome of your death." The young man said.

"Haha, in this world, there is no one who can kill me." Zhou Yan smiled indifferently.

"In that case, I will kill you first. After that, I will kill all the Demonic Beasts here and throw your body back into the valley." The young man sneered.

"Heh heh, do you think you can kill me with just the few of you?" Zhou Yan sneered.

"Haha, we have six experts at the early Divine Lord Realm on our side. Even if we can't defeat you, it's more than enough to kill you." The young man said.

Hearing the young man's words, Zhou Yan's face revealed a hint of shock. Six early stage Divine Lord experts and so many Demonic Beasts.

"So, you guys are here to take revenge on me?" Zhou Yan asked.

"Hmph, you killed thirty million Demonic Beasts, so we naturally have to seek revenge for them!" The young man said.

Hearing the young man's words, Zhou Yan was shocked. How these Demonic Beasts died, he did not know. However, from the scene here, these Demonic Beasts seemed to have had their essence and Nascent Soul devoured by something, which resulted in their death.

"Then, you guys can give it a try. Let's see if you guys have the ability to do so." Zhou Yan said.

"Humph, I want to see how stubborn you are." With that, the young man waved the sharp blade in his hand and attacked Zhou Yan.

"Shua ~"

The sharp blade streaked across the air, leaving behind a long white scar. Zhou Yan only saw a blade appear in front of him and then disappear.

"What a fast blade."

Zhou Yan praised in his heart. The speed of this young man was even faster than his own speed.

"Boom ~"

Just as Zhou Yan finished speaking, he heard a loud explosion coming from the distant mountain peak. Immediately after, a powerful pressure assaulted Zhou Yan.

"What is this?" Zhou Yan frowned and thought to himself, "Not good, we are in big trouble this time."

In Zhou Yan's senses, a huge monster was approaching him. This huge monster was over a hundred meters tall and its entire body was golden in color. Its body was covered with scales, and its four limbs were thick and powerful. On its body, there was a metallic lustre that emitted a dazzling golden light.

This golden monster's entire body was covered in scales, and its body was emitting an intense and fierce aura, causing the surrounding space to seem to have frozen.
