The sudden attack from Cloud Summit was matched by an equally sudden counterattack from the Yama Tree.
Just as Ye Zhongming gave the command for over ten thousand human survivors and more than twenty thousand dried corpses to perish, the world of nature unleashed its strongest attack, causing the green clouds to explode away.
This final attack shattered the Clear Sky Fat Stream, which had only 2 durability left.
Countless leaves rained down towards the people below, while the surrounding dried corpse horde launched a full assault.
The vortex created by both sides began to spin at that moment.
At the instant the Clear Sky Fat Stream broke apart, Xia Bai and the earth yellow pill, who had been nearby and hadn’t participated in the previous attack, struck together!
First was Xia Bai’s Flaming Combustion, a skill from the elemental domain transformed into a dense firewall, charging towards the endless green leaves, the clash of fire and nature giving Xia Bai hope for victory.
Next came the earth yellow pill’s Needle Rain!
After evolving to the sixth level, the golden dog had never used this ability before. Not even when it was ambushed and severely injured by the Radiant World Army did it employ this skill.
But now, its master’s safety demanded its use.
Countless golden long hairs detached from its body, transforming into a torrential rain of golden needles, rushing towards those deadly green leaves.
Ye Zhongming also made his move, first with the pressure attack of the Seal Mountain Blade, followed by the area attack of the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun.
Both were aimed at countering the leaves.
Compared to the Yama Tree, Ye Zhongming was much more organized.
However, they were ultimately facing the strongest attack from an eighth-level mutated life form, and even a dying gasp from such a being was still terrifying.
The Flaming Combustion surged forth, causing the front leaves to dry up, wither, and turn to ash. The color of the firewall dimmed, and then the leaves behind it passed through, with the skills of the purple weapon unable to stop them.
The golden needle rain approached, fast and sharp, possessing strong penetrating power, and as a gift from a mutated life form, its strength increased with the body’s power.
Moreover, the quantity of the Needle Rain was immense!
The sounds of “thud, thud, thud” filled the air, accompanied by the clanging of metal against metal.
Green and gold intertwined in the air, creating a furious melody.
Countless falling green leaves were momentarily blocked by the golden needles but still fell afterwards.
One golden needle could penetrate a single green leaf, but more often than not, they were deflected by the high-speed spinning leaves.
There were countless golden needles and countless green leaves, but the power of each golden needle was not on par with that of a single green leaf.
This was also a gift skill, but there was an insurmountable gap in levels.
With a loud bang, the last golden needle was sent flying by the green leaves, and the earth yellow pill’s skill lost its effect.
At this point, the number of green leaves had been reduced by half due to the two skills.
If the skill of the world of nature were still functioning, what Xia Bai and the earth yellow pill did would undoubtedly be akin to a mantis trying to stop a car, but now only these green leaves remained. Their attack still bought Ye Zhongming and the others some time to counterattack.
It was an attack, not a retreat, because in such a short amount of time, it was impossible to escape the range of these green leaves.
With Ye Zhongming’s skill and the attack from the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun, others within the attack range also unleashed their strongest attacks. They knew the chance was only once; after this attack, either the assaults would cancel each other out, leading to a peaceful resolution, or they would only partially cancel, leaving the rest to fate and forced endurance!
In desperate situations, the power people could unleash was not to be underestimated. These individuals were not particularly strong, but their explosive force at this moment was astonishing, creating a momentum not less than that of Xia Bai and the earth yellow pill just moments ago. However, the effectiveness was far inferior.
