Vast fog surged around the Dosu Tree and it swirled toward Su Mo at a great speed.
On top of that, the fallen branches and the gravel on the ground twirled toward him as well.
Su Mo’s devouring power was mighty as it contained the power of the Devouring Primordial Spirit and the Devouring Rules.
Rumble!
The sky rumbled and a huge maelstrom appeared around Su Mo. Fog, gravel, dead leaves, and mud gushed into the maelstrom in an instant.
“This is….!”
“Oh no! What a powerful devouring power!”
“Is this guy attempting to use his devouring power to devour all the Dosu Fruits?”
The people looked at Su Mo in amazement when they saw the mighty devouring power.
Some of them who had been about to pluck the Dosu Fruits and a few others around lost their balance and they were staggering.
The people were familiar with the devouring power as a few mighty Supreme Beings from the various branches in Ancient Cloud Star Alliance cultivated the Devouring Rules.
Crack… crack.
Suddenly, the ground cracked and dozens of huge cracks appeared. It looked as if the entire star was about to collapse.
Rumble!
‘There was an earth-shattering explosion and it caused the entire area to shake. The sky quaked vigorously, as though it was the end of the world.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The people who attempted to go near the Dosu Tree to pluck the Fruits retreated quickly. There was no way for them to pluck the Dosu Fruits from under the mighty devouring power.
What is he trying to do? Quan Ruhai was fuming with anger. He had no choice but to retreat and was soon beside Ling Chang.
“Junior Sister Xuan Qing, what is Wu Shan trying to do?” Quan Ruhai asked, looking unhappy.
“Lhave no idea!” Ling Chang replied as she shook her head. She had no intention to tell Quan Ruhai about Su Mo’s plan.
“Is he trying to get hold of the Dosu Fruits by devouring? He must be dreaming!” Quan Ruhai said with a mocking look.
Although Quan Ruhai had made that comment, he had to admit that Wu Shan’s devouring power was mighty. The ordinary Rank 9 Advanced True Gods would be no match for Wu Shan, and only Rank 9 Advanced True Gods who were powerful like him had the possibility of defeating Wu Shan.
‘The area was in chaos and the ground quaked and cracked continually.
‘The giant Dosu Tree swayed perpetually under the mighty devouring power, and the fog in the area swirled crazily toward Su Mo like a huge dragon.
Suddenly, the Dosu Tree broke out in flame.
‘The flame was a combination of the Fire Based Energy and the Rules of the Flame and it was mighty. The minute it appeared, it was like a flaming mountain that engulfed Su Mo, who was in the sky.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As the fire was burning fiercely, the people around the Dosu Tree moved back 500 meters.
Ling Chang and Quan Ruhai followed the crowd and did likewise.
“Haha! The Dosu Tree is retaliating!”
“Burn him to death!”
“The Dosu Tree is enraged!”
“He is crazy!”
The people were shouting and although none of them were caught in the flame and they could not feel the actual power of the flame, they could see that the power was immense.
Quan Ruhai curled his lips and was praying hard that Wu Shan would be killed by the Dosu Tree.
When that happened, no one would stand between him and his Junior Sister Xuan Qing, and it would be easier for him to capture her heart.
Su Mo remained seated in the raging flame above the Dosu Tree.
He knew that the Dosu Tree was attacking him but he remained calm.
The Chaotic Power Source circled around him and formed a strong defense.
His Devouring Rules and Devouring Primordial Spirit remained mighty and instead of dwindling in power, the power increased.
Under the mighty devouring power, a large amount of flame was devoured by Su Mo.
Although the fiery flame raged around Su Mo for 15 minutes, it was unable to harm Su Mo. The Dosu Tree immediately changed its tactic.
‘The fiery flame disappeared into thin air all of a sudden.
Following that, an illusory beast shadow appeared above the Dosu Tree.
The beast was around 1,000 feet tall and its body was illusory. It looked like a leopard, and it emitted a threatening aura.
The ferocious beast was a type of Rules and it was mighty. Its imposing aura raged around the area and it seemed formidable.
Roar!
‘The giant beast roared and shot up to the sky, and pounced on Su Mo.
It opened its mouth and attempted to swallow Su Mo.
Su Mo remained seated in a cross-legged position and did not respond to the attack.
‘As expected, he was devoured by the beast.
“This…!”
Ling Chang started to panic when she saw the scene. However, she believed that Su Mo must have his reason for not retaliating.
Crazy fellow! Quan Ruhai was elated. Since Wu Shan did not retaliate, he was bound to be killed by the beast. That sat well with Quan Ruhai.
“Why did he not retaliate?”
“Does he not have the power to fend against the attack?”
“He must be dying!”
“He will definitely be killed!”
Many disciples commented as they watched the giant beast. The beast was transparent but the people could not see Su Mo although it had devoured him.
Suddenly, the giant beast trembled after three breaths and it disappeared.
Su Mo re-appeared and he remained in a seated position.
In actual fact, the beast was not powerful. Its strength lay in its ability to oppress one’s mind. However, Su Mo’s Spiritual Soul was powerful and he had a strong will. He was not affected by the beast and he had destroyed it with his mighty Spiritual Soul and Rules.
‘The mighty devouring power swirled out perpetually from Su Mo’s body as it continued to devour the fog. The surrounding area soon became free from fog and even the ground went down a few feet.
Even so, Su Mo was not free from the attacks.
Six illusory airstreams suddenly appeared in the sky, but it was not perceivable. However, one could sense its Mental Perceptivity.
‘There were six different colors in the airstreams. They were gold, red, white, grey, green, and black. The six airstreams surged in the sky and churned around.
In the blink of an eye, the six airstreams came together and formed a huge round door in front of Su Mo, like a huge Six-colored Maelstrom.
Su Mo opened his eyes and stared at it.
“The Gate of reincarnation!”
Su Mo was surprised to see the Gate of reincarnation. That was the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign’s Primordial Spirit!
Su Mo had seen it before in his dream. He was certain that it was the Gate of reincarnation.
However, he knew that it was not the Primordial Spirit of the Gate of reincarnation and it had been formed by the power of the Rules.
At that instant, Su Mo felt endangered.
One only felt endangered when one faced danger. When Su Mo was attacked by the Dosu Tree earlier, he had not felt threatened. However, he felt that he was in danger at that instant..
