Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Swords flashed in the smoke as Xue Yao, Bai Yichen, and the tall man's fight intensified. The man's swordsmanship was incredibly sharp, and each strike rang with a piercing sound, as if tearing the very air apart.

However, Xue Yao and Bai Yichen cooperated seamlessly. One of them used softness to overcome hardness, and the other used hardness to break softness, and they easily resisted the man's attack.

"Who are you? Why do you have such skills?" The man asked in a deep voice with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The heavenly realm is indeed full of masters, but in his impression, there is no such person, and he has never heard of him.

Xue Yao sneered and replied, "It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is that we won't let you succeed."

Bai Yichen stared at the man, thinking to himself. He felt that the man's figure and swordsmanship were somewhat familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. But for a moment, he couldn't remember where.

At this moment, footsteps were heard from other entrances to the basement, and it was obvious that more enemies were approaching.

Xue Yao and Bai Yichen knew that if anyone else didn't break out, they would be trapped and unable to escape. However, they didn't panic, instead they assessed the situation more calmly.

"It seems we have to fight quickly and decisively." Bai Yichen said in a low voice with sharp eyes.

Xueyao nodded, knowing she had to go all out at this moment. The two exchanged glances again, then launched their offensive in tacit agreement.

Xue Yao, swift as a swallow, weaved lightly through the mist, her swordsmanship agile and strange, leaving people unable to grasp her. Meanwhile, Bai Yichen was like an unshakable mountain, each move imbued with power and determination.

The tall man gradually began to feel a bit exhausted in the face of the two people's joint attack. Although his swordsmanship was sharp, he seemed a little powerless under the tacit cooperation of Xue Yao and Bai Yichen.

Just as Xue Yao and Bai Yichen were about to gain the upper hand, the tall man suddenly roared, his aura surging, and his swordsmanship became even more violent. He seemed to have unleashed some kind of potential at this moment, causing Xue Yao and Bai Yichen to feel a surge of pressure.

However, just when the tall man's momentum reached its peak, a glimmer of inspiration flashed in Bai Yichen's eyes, and he finally remembered the man's identity.

"You are a disciple of Dan Palace!" Bai Yichen shouted loudly.

The tall man was stunned upon hearing this, his attack stagnating. Xue Yao seized the opportunity and stabbed the man in the vitals. The man hurriedly drew his sword back to block, but he had already lost the initiative and was restrained by Bai Yichen.

"How do you know?" the tall man was surprised and struggled to speak.

At this time, the men in black who surrounded them were gradually approaching.

Bai Yichen's eyes glared, and he shouted, "Dan Palace disciple, why are you aiding and abetting this evil? Don't you know the true purpose of the 'Apocalypse' project?"

A complex emotion flashed across the tall man's eyes upon hearing this, but it was quickly replaced by anger. He roared, "You ignorant people don't understand the Dan Palace's painstaking efforts. Everything we do is for the future of the Celestial Realm."

Xue Yao frowned. She knew this tall man was no ordinary Dan Palace disciple. His swordsmanship and aura revealed an extraordinary background. She whispered to Bai Yichen, "It seems the Dan Palace is also involved in this conspiracy. We must be careful."

Bai Yichen nodded. He knew that the Dan Palace held a special position in the Heaven Realm, and its disciples' strength should not be underestimated. He said in a deep voice, "Dan Palace disciple, if you can stop before it's too late, perhaps we can still find a common path."

The tall man sneered and said, "A common path? You so-called righteous people simply don't understand the necessity of change. Only by completely destroying the old order can we usher in a true new life."

As they were talking, the men in black had already surrounded Xue Yao and Bai Yichen. Xue Yao and Bai Yichen knew about it, but they didn't care. The reason they exchanged so many moves with the tall man was just to get some information from him.

Bai Yichen took a deep breath and said to Xue Yao, "We can't waste time here. Let's leave as soon as possible."

Xue Yao nodded, and the two exchanged glances again, then launched an attack tacitly.

Bai Yichen was like an indestructible fortress, blocking most of the attacks for her.

Xue Yao's figure was as fast as lightning as she flew into the air. Ice-blue mist dispersed and everyone present was instantly covered in frost.

The two of them worked together tacitly to tie up all the men in black. Bai Yichen raised his hand and put all the men in black into a small bottle and put it into his sleeve.

However, just as they were about to rush out of the basement, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

He was a middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe, his eyes revealing an unfathomable majesty. He slowly spoke, "Do you think you can escape like this? How can you easily disrupt the 'Apocalypse' project?"

Xue Yao and Bai Yichen felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. It seemed that the middle-aged man in front of them must be the core figure of the 'Apocalypse' plan.

Humph, you can't find it even after searching everywhere, but now it comes to you without any effort.

They came just in time, saving them from having to look for him again. However, what Xueyao said was, "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "I am an elder of the Dan Palace and one of the leaders of the 'Apocalypse' plan. Since you have been involved in this conspiracy, let me see if you have the ability to stop it."

Xue Yao and Bai Yichen exchanged a glance, realizing that the situation was more complex than they had imagined. The presence of the Dan Palace elders had undoubtedly made this battle even more difficult.

"In that case, let us experience the Dan Palace's skills." Bai Yichen said in a deep voice, his eyes as sharp as knives.

Xue Yao gripped the hilt of her sword tightly. She whispered to Bai Yichen, "Since he is an elder of the Dan Palace, he must be extremely powerful. We cannot take him lightly, and we must be especially careful of his poison."

As she spoke, Xue Yao quickly threw a pill into Bai Yichen's mouth. Bai Yichen swallowed the pill quickly without hesitation. Xue also took a pill herself.

The Dan Palace elder smiled faintly, seemingly unfazed by Xue Yao and Bai Yichen's vigilance. He slowly raised his hand, and a powerful airflow surged through the basement, as if the entire space was under his control.

"Do you think you still have a chance?" There was a hint of disdain in the voice of the Dan Palace elder.

Xue Yao and Bai Yichen didn't respond, knowing now wasn't the time for verbal sparring. They quickly adjusted themselves, ready for the upcoming challenge.

Xue Yao and Bai Yichen, still relying on their tacit cooperation, engaged in a thrilling duel with the elders of the Dan Palace. Sword lights and air currents intertwined in the basement, as if the entire space was trembling.

However, the strength of the Dan Palace elder far exceeded their imagination. Every attack he made was with overwhelming force, which made Xue Yao and Bai Yichen feel tremendous pressure.

Of course Xue Yao and Bai Yichen couldn't just sit there and wait for death, so they immediately changed their tactics.

Xue Yao raised her hand, and an ancient formation had trapped the other party.

The Dan Palace elder's eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing this. His expression changed drastically; he hadn't expected these two young men to possess such a skill. He tried to break free from the formation, but for a moment, he was unable to escape.

Bai Yichen was also stunned. This formation looked familiar. Something was emerging in his mind, but he couldn't see it clearly.
