Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

"Failed!"

The divine tree clone retreated instantly, dodging another player's attack.

The players' arrivals are quite regular; as long as the approximate time is calculated, an ambush can be set up, since the entire forest is under his control.

Unfortunately, this last group of players was also of extremely high quality and reacted very quickly, instantly blocking his sneak attack.

The Divine Tree clone had anticipated this outcome; the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it is to launch a sneak attack, because the core of a sneak attack is to seriously injure or kill the target.

However, beings at higher levels have such thick health bars that it's difficult to achieve a one-hit kill.

When the attack failed, the divine tree clone instantly merged into the forest, concealing its form.

After fighting for so long, the Divine Tree clone now regarded all these players as opponents of the same level, going all out and leaving no openings.

"defense!"

At the same time, the team leader on the other side also called his teammates to form a battle formation. Looking at the divine tree clone that disappeared before their eyes, his expression was extremely solemn.

"Little Nine..."

"Yes!"

The voices rang out one after the other, and without the elder saying much, the masked woman instantly began to cast her secret spell.

"Virtual Realm Detection!"

The illusory reflection of one world instantly unfolded, seemingly trying to reflect the entire instance world.

Among the many primordial paths, the Void Realm Path has extremely powerful detection and suppression capabilities, especially its ability to detect life, which surpasses that of other primordial paths.

"It's also from the Void Realm!"

As the God-King of the Void Realm, the Divine Tree Avatar sensed the moment the masked woman unleashed her secret technique.

Among these nine waves of players, this was the first time he had encountered a player who cultivated the Void Realm Dao, making them extremely rare.

"over there!"

Under the reflection of the world, the masked woman instantly discovered the hiding place of the divine tree's avatar, but the next moment a blood moon suddenly appeared in the virtual world she had constructed.

"what is this?"

The masked woman suddenly found herself bound to a cross, and the virtual world she had created was completely out of her control.

"Let the senior teach you. Never reveal any flaws in front of someone who is more proficient in the Origin Dao than you, especially in the Origin Dao of Soul Illusion Techniques."

A faint, ethereal voice rang out, and the next moment the masked woman found her body completely out of her control, a deep, soul-stirring itch surging forth.

Saplings sprouted from the veiled woman's skin and grew rapidly, completely engulfing her.

Click!

Just then, the entire illusionary world suddenly began to shatter.

Although the flow of time in the illusionary world is far faster than in the outside world, the cultivators' thinking and action speed is also extremely fast.

"open!"

Just before the masked woman was pulled into the illusion, she pointed out the location of the divine tree's clone, and the remaining teammates did not hesitate at all.

Four remained in place to provide defense support and observation, while the captain led the other four teammates directly to the location of the Divine Tree clone.

boom!

The sounds of swords, spears, and clubs clashing rang out instantly, and the slightly uncontrollable divine power was released directly into the surrounding forest.

The divine tree avatar was forced out of the forest, and the surrounding trees were annihilated by divine power, turning into ruins.

The five players who rushed over were all formidable, far surpassing the strength of the Chaos Overlord. Even the Divine Tree Avatar had to take them seriously, and the influence of the masked woman's illusion instantly weakened.

Battle allows no distractions; any form of distraction will prevent one from fully utilizing their strength, just like when he used the illusory realm to bully others.

As soon as the battle broke out on the Divine Tree clone's side, the masked woman on the other side also broke free from the illusion's restraints.

As fellow cultivators of the Void Realm, when they encounter a superior being, although it is difficult to contend with them, they have many tricks for dealing with it.

"Wow, that's strong!"

The masked woman's consciousness returned to reality. She gasped for breath, and her boiling divine power calmed down. Although she had been tormented in the illusion, her eyes were fixed on the Void Tree King before her with intense passion.

The Void Realm Path she cultivates follows the "World" and "Illusion" branches, with the former being the primary focus, as the other branches are simply too abstract to cultivate.

In this way, the Void Realm Dao comprehended by the Divine Tree's avatar was completely superior to that of the masked woman.

"If I could obtain the inheritance of the Void Realm Dao from the Void Realm Tree King, it would probably be enough for me to cultivate to the level of a Cosmic God," the masked woman thought to herself.

"I'm sorry, but I can't offer much support against the Void Realm Tree King," the masked woman said apologetically.

"It's alright. Our purpose in coming here is to help you obtain the inheritance of the Void Realm Path. We knew and anticipated this long ago," a teammate comforted him. They had already taken this situation into account.

"The Light of the Soul!"

"Soul Barrier..."

"Guardian of the Void Realm..."

……

One after another, defensive techniques targeting the mind and soul were unleashed, empowering the five teammates who were fighting. Although there were few treasures that could defend against the Void Realm, they could try to stimulate their own minds and souls to resist the influence of the Void Realm illusion.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, the team leader and his four teammates were frantically fighting against the Divine Tree clone.

When the five of them joined forces, they cooperated with each other, complementing each other's secret techniques, and the power they unleashed reached the level of a God-King.

The only drawback is that no matter how closely they coordinate, they can never match a single individual and will still be able to exploit weaknesses.

"magical!"

The power of the Divine Tree's avatar's illusory realm was unleashed on the leader, instantly creating an opening in the latter's actions.

No matter how many methods are used, the fundamental Dao at the God-King level remains unsolvable and will inevitably be affected.

The Void Dao is omnipresent in space, the Eternal Dao occupies the past and future in time, and the Void Realm Dao is the absolute ruler of the soul.

The five people were working closely together, but when one of them made a mistake, the flaw in their teamwork became even more apparent. In an instant, the divine tree clone seized the opportunity and suppressed the five people's attack.

"receive!"

The power of the illusory realm was withdrawn by the divine tree clone, and then it was ready to be unleashed again, leaving the opposing players completely baffled.

An attack is most powerful before it is unleashed.

While continuously releasing the illusory realm can suppress the strength of these individuals, they will quickly adapt over time, since their main combat strength is not themselves, but rather their teamwork.

However, the constant withdrawal and release, and the constant switching of the attacked party—sometimes one person, sometimes two, sometimes five—directly disrupted their attack rhythm, making it difficult for them to coordinate perfectly.

However, although the Divine Tree clone tried its best to influence these people, as a seasoned player, it had encountered many different situations and quickly found a solution.

boom……

The five of them joined forces to create a massive torrent of divine power, completely ignoring all attacks aimed at them and blasting it towards the divine tree's clone.

The Divine Tree clone struck one of the players with its sword, but was also hit by the attack itself.

Clearly, at this moment, both sides are simply fighting their own battles, turning the fight into a tug-of-war.

This behavior seems to benefit the God King, but there are still five players watching with predatory eyes on the other side, and none of them have made a direct move yet.

In this situation, the Divine Tree clone naturally couldn't choose to fight a war of attrition with these people. Actually, it could, since the most advantageous position of the God King of the Origin Continent lies in his divine body.

"It's time to find a new target!"

The divine tree split its mind and body, then unleashed a sword strike, but instead of targeting the five players who were attacking it, it struck the ground directly.

Rumble…

In an instant, the entire forest shook, and countless trees waved their branches.

"burst!"

The divine tree clone ignited the divine power it had left in the forest. During its rest intervals, it didn't just sit idly by; it also tried to transform the entire forest.

Rumble…

A series of explosions rang out, and the entire instance world was instantly engulfed in flames.

Guided by another force, the destructive power swept toward the two targets.

"not good!"

The team leader easily blocked the explosion, but then realized they had lost control of the target; the Void Tree King's figure was completely engulfed by the divine power of the explosion.

"careful!"

The squad leader roared and instantly led his four teammates to fly in the other direction.

tear!

However, at that moment, a ray of light imbued with divine flames streaked across the torrent, its target aimed directly at the team leader.

Compared to the danger on the other side, the five players who had just attacked him were clearly a greater threat; their earlier actions were just a smokescreen.

"Since the lure failed, we'll have to fight head-on."

However, seeing the Void Tree King charging towards him, the leader, who had been looking anxious, instantly showed a look of regret.

"There's no need for underhanded tactics to deal with such beings; let's all join forces."

Buzz!

The moment the divine tree clone stabbed out, the five players who had just attacked him instantly formed the Five Elements Formation.

"The Way of Metal!"

"The Way of Wood!"

"The Way of Water's Origin!"

"The Way of Fire's Origin!"

"The Way of Earth, the Origin of All Things!"

The aura of the five elements' origin naturally emerged, pushing the five people's momentum to a peak.

"Wind, thunder, and light are the origin of the Dao."
