At this moment, Tang Hao's skull finally opened its mouth wide, seemingly letting out a silent wail.
However, this was far from over!
Even though he had lost his flesh and internal organs, the powerful skill system developed by Tang Haofei and Wen Yu was still functioning as it should.
The golden skull slowly lowered, as he looked at the vines before him, shimmering with golden light. Tang Hao, who was left with only bones, seemed to want to exert strength to break free from the vines' entrapment.
Yet, even with Wen Yu's abilities, the vines that were beyond his control were not something Tang Hao could escape.
With a loud cracking sound, signs of the bones fracturing began to emerge!
Tang Hao, realizing this scene, decisively gave up his suicidal actions. He stared at the black hole, seemingly seeing the mocking eyes of the spirit of the demon lord within.
"Roar!"
A soundless roar erupted from Tang Hao's mouth, and the emptiness in his gaze suddenly blazed with golden light. In the next second, Tang Hao took a large step forward, arms wide open, and instantly embraced the Demon Realm Flower before him.
This act of burning the boats behind him meant that it was either his death or that of his enemy!
However, will alone could not change the disparity in power.
When Tang Hao was entangled by the Demon Realm Flower, Wen Yu, far away on the other side, also sensed Tang Hao's presence and joined the battle against the spirit of the demon lord.
In an instant, the flesh and blood splattered before Wen Yu's eyes, and he watched as Tang Hao, now only bones, pressed tightly against the Demon Realm Flower, his eyes flashing with helplessness.
It was like an ant joining a competition between a tiger and a cheetah; within a short time, the golden light on Tang Hao's bones had dimmed. Though this little guy was strong, his growth period had been too short. Regardless of how hard he tried, it still wouldn’t change the outcome.
"Hold on!"
Wen Yu sent a mental wave towards Tang Hao from a distance, and in the next moment, another aura joined the fray!
"Another one?"
The spirit of the demon lord in the Forest of the Mother Tree flickered with interest. He felt another aura that was even comparable to Wen Yu's and focused his perception. Almost instantly, he saw another face of Wen Yu.
"Clone... oh, so it’s a clone..."
A realization flashed in his eyes, and the spirit of the demon lord casually grabbed another vine from the Mother Tree. Then, mysterious energy waves poured from his hand as he spoke softly.
"Based on the source of ice..."
Then, another aura instantaneously connected.
As a result, the pressure on Wen Yu Two and Tang Hao was slightly reduced.
In the Layered Battlefield, in an undeveloped area of Zone One.
Wen Yu One stood before the Demon Realm Flower, extending his hands to grab the vine that reached out from the black hole. As the spirit of the demon lord's power surged into him, nearly five seconds later, blood began to ooze from Wen Yu One's nostrils.
The effect was evident—one single Wen Yu clone truly could not handle the spirit of the demon lord's situation, but there were still five Wen Yus in the Layered Battlefield and on Earth!
Moreover, in this long-distance contest, even though the Mother Tree served as a medium, the loss of power transmission midway would still be astronomical. In other words, in this contest, the spirit of the demon lord could not unleash its full strength!
In almost an instant, Wen Yu determined that as long as he went all out, his life would definitely not be in danger, and he even had the energy to protect Tang Hao!
However, in this game, Wen Yu was still a step behind...
Because he had already figured out the spirit of the demon lord's ultimate goal.
This was not a killing move targeting Wen Yu; it was merely a pawn sacrifice!
The spirit of the demon lord used itself, with the Mother Tree as collateral, to completely seal off the highest combat power on Earth!
Thoughts raced through Wen Yu's mind, and within a short time, he had grasped all the causes and effects. He pondered briefly and ultimately sighed.
