Chapter 255: Cutting off His Luck
Normally, the island protection formation developed by the Tianji Sect can withstand the simultaneous siege of two or three sects.
This is one of the reasons why the Tianji Sect was able to stand proudly in the world of cultivation hundreds of years ago. In addition, they are located overseas, so even if they make enemies with others, it is not easy for them to be attacked at their "headquarters".
Even the Shushan Sect, which can fly with swords, does not want to fight the Tianji Sect on the sea. The reason is that "flying" consumes too much spiritual energy, and "sea ships" are not convenient for fighting.
With the advantage of terrain and defense of magic array, the disciples of Tianji Sect can roam outside without any worries. If they cannot win, they can hide at "home" and wait until the storm passes, or after making further preparations, they can fight the enemy again.
I don’t know how comfortable it is.
Unlike other cultivation sects, where it is easy to be blocked at the doorstep, people on Fuso Island can still run around freely!
Even when the Qingqiu fox caused havoc in Tianji Gate more than 300 years ago, they were intentionally let in. Their original intention was to use the geographical advantage to surround and kill the fox demon so as to obtain her fox heart and essence of flesh and blood.
Relying on the three advantages of Fuso Island, Tianjimen has never been truly attacked by anyone.
But today they saw it.
The island protection formation that was once thought to be indestructible was easily broken.
Liu Furong listened to the rumbling sound coming from above the treetops, and waves of violent explosion shock waves came down from above the treetops.
All the disciples of Tianji Sect felt a roar and stinging in their ears.
"This is too much!" Liu Furong drew his sword and said angrily, "Disciples who can stay in the air, follow me to fight the enemy!"
After saying that, Liu Furong made a few seals with one hand, and internal energy surrounded him, and his clothes fluttered.
He soared into the sky with a whoosh, and several elders and disciples followed him up.
Everyone knew that if the tree continued to be beaten like this, it would definitely be destroyed.
However, just as this group of people flew to the height of the treetops, they were knocked down again by a violent explosion. Several weaker disciples fainted on the spot and then fell to their deaths.
Liu Furong fell to the ground, groaned, and his face turned pale!
The power of the redstone bomb was so great that they were only affected by the residual force and were also seriously injured.
At this time, an elder rushed over and asked anxiously: "Master, what should we do?"
Liu Furong was furious: "How could I know that this kid Lu Sen didn't follow the rules and attacked the mountain gate just for a small matter. How can someone act like this!"
Another elder rushed over and said while looking up at the treetops in the sky: "Master, don't talk about this at this moment. Lu Sen obviously wants us to die. We must save our lives first. As long as we have a green mountain, we will not be afraid of running out of firewood."
"Elder Qi means... to use magic weapons?"
Elder Qi, who had just spoken, nodded repeatedly.
Liu Furong gnashed his teeth and said, "But that is the accumulation of hundreds of years of our ancestors. If we use it up here, how can we face our ancestors in the future when we pass away?"
"But it's better than wiping out the whole clan!" Elder Qi raised his voice as loudly as he could, because the rumbling explosions were getting louder and louder, and getting closer. If he didn't shout louder, the others wouldn't be able to hear him at all: "Master, this is an emergency. There's no time to hesitate."
Liu Furong gritted his teeth and shouted, "The rest of you continue to supply spiritual power to the Fusang tree. The elders, follow me to the storehouse to get the magic weapons."
Then the seven of them quickly flew to the sect's storehouse and each took out several colorful magic weapons. When they ran under the Fusang tree, they could already see sparks burning above the tree canopy and a large number of leaves falling.
Liu Furong felt heartbroken when he saw this, because this was the most precious treasure of Tianji Sect, the sacred tree.
At the same time, he also understood that if he had arrived a step later, the hibiscus tree might have been blown to pieces.
"Put all the magic weapons over there."
In an instant, a pile of magic weapons were thrown under the tree.
As if sensing the energy, the Fusang tree spontaneously began to absorb the spiritual energy of these magical weapons.
Strands of white spiritual energy visible to the naked eye sank into the tree trunk, and those magic weapons quickly turned from bright and shiny to dull, and finally even cracked and shattered.
Thanks to the infusion of spiritual energy, the island protection formation was once again gathered together.
Lu Sen was above, looking at the transparent shield that reappeared. He sneered and said, "Keep throwing. I don't believe that his stored spiritual energy is unlimited."
In this Dharma-Ending Age when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is exhausted, even if the Fusang tree can produce spiritual energy on its own, it is estimated that not much will be left, not to mention that the Fusang tree has been "sick" for more than three hundred years.
So he gave an order and more redstone bombs were thrown down.
More frequent explosions sounded from above.
Liu Furong gritted his teeth and said, "How much spiritual energy has this Lu Sen kid stored? Why does he use his thunderbolt ability endlessly ? Elders, go take out all the magic weapons in the warehouse, just in case!"
Several elders quickly ran to the storehouse, took out a large number of magic weapons, and piled them under the hibiscus tree.
Seeing the magical weapons having their spiritual energy sucked away and turned into tatters, the hearts of all the Tianji sect members were bleeding!
Liu Furong regrets it very much now. If he had known earlier, he would not have agreed to the plan to steal the floating golden boat. As a result, he did not touch the golden boat, and now he has lost so many magic weapons.
Several elders came and went, and their magic weapons were piled up like a small mountain under the hibiscus tree.
These magic weapons became dim and turned into waste.
The people from the Tianji Sect gritted their teeth and their eyes turned red.
Some of the more emotionally fragile disciples, including some female disciples, were already wiping away tears.
These are the roots of life!
The roar in the air still continued.
At this time, several elders threw the last batch of magic weapons under the Fusang tree, and one of them said, "Master, the warehouse is empty!"
Liu Furong's face turned pale, as pale as a dead person. He nodded and then looked up at the sky.
But because he was blocked by the dense canopy of the hibiscus trees, he could not see Lu Sen's aircraft. He could only hear the loud explosion above and the hibiscus trees shaking violently.
The Tianji Sect disciples around saw the last magic weapon turned into pieces, and finally someone couldn't help crying out loud!
These magic weapons are the foundation of the Tianji Sect and their confidence, but now they are all gone!
And even so, it seemed unable to stop the attack from the air.
Listening to the continuous explosions and feeling the increasingly violent shaking of the hibiscus tree trunk, Liu Furong knew that this island protection formation would not last much longer!
He closed his eyes in pain, and after a while, he slowly said: "Several elders stay with me, and the other disciples of Tianji Sect will disperse to various places on the island. Try to avoid the enemy and avoid conflict with them. If there is a chance, row a boat to escape."
The faces of several elders changed drastically, but then they all sighed and remained silent.
They accepted the disaster that was coming!
And those disciples of Tianji Sect all cried out that they wanted to stay and share life and death with Tianji Sect and with their leader.
Liu Furong said coldly: "Anyone who dares to say anything more will be kicked out immediately!"
This frightened most of the Tianji Sect disciples, and only a few shouted, "Even if I am expelled from the sect, I would rather live in disgrace!"
Liu Furong felt both relieved and helpless after hearing this.
He looked up at the treetops and said, "If we don't leave, I don't think any of us will be able to leave. If we die, it will be up to you to rebuild the Tianji Sect. You must not let the sect's heritage die out!"
After hearing this, many disciples of Tianji Sect finally left.
They also knew that there was no point in them staying!
He did know some martial arts, and could bully ordinary people, and the knights in the martial arts world were okay , but under such intensive thunder magic, they were as fragile as ordinary people!
Seeing the disciples of Tianji Sect disperse, leaving only some elders and several disciples, Liu Furong smiled miserably: "Today, we will share life and death with the Fusang tree."
The others were either angry, indifferent, or complaining, but no one said anything and instead walked to Liu Furong's side.
The ten people looked up at the sky, watching the island protection formation shattered and the treetops being smashed and blown away by the violent explosion!
A large number of broken trees and leaves were scattered everywhere, and there were even some branches that were charred and had sparks.
And they also heard the screams of the Fuso tree!
It was a groan of despair that arose in the mind. The hibiscus tree had no vocal organs. When it spoke occasionally, the sound directly affected the consciousness of others.
"Everyone from Tianji Sect, listen up and follow me to meet the enemy!"
Liu Furong took the lead, leaping up with a sword in hand, and the others followed him, all rushing up into the sky!
But before they could fly out of the range of the tree canopy, several redstone bombs were dropped. At this moment, the hibiscus tree "moved", and it gathered all its branches and leaves into a ball to block the top.
With a few loud bangs, the gathered world tree canopy was blown to pieces, and Liu Furong and others were directly "smashed" down from the air by the violent impact.
Everyone fell to the ground like bugs.
Liu Furong felt as if he was hit by Mount Buzhou, and he was almost turned into a meat paste.
But he didn't die, he could still stand up .
But his hair was messy, his body was charred, and his clothes were in rags, making him look like a crazy beggar.
A large number of branches and fallen leaves fell around like raindrops, some even hitting his body and head.
He looked around and saw that only two of the elders were still moving and breathing, the others were already motionless.
Looking up again, I saw the sun shining down from the sky, which was very dazzling.
The hibiscus tree has dense branches and leaves, and its crown blocks out the sky within a radius of ten miles, but now... the entire crown of the hibiscus tree has disappeared, leaving only a bare trunk with a small part broken off, still standing upright.
Liu Furong looked at the sky and saw a black dot descending from the sky. It was Lu Sen's aircraft.
Opening the glass cover, Lu Sen looked at Liu Furong below with cold eyes.
Liu Furong also saw him, his eyes full of malicious hatred: "Come down, come down and kill me if you have the guts! Lu Sen, do you have the guts?"
The shrill cry sounded like a death scream.
Lu Sen was hanging high in the sky, looking at the man, motionless.
Liu Furong waited for a while, but saw no movement from Lu Sen. He suddenly understood something and laughed wildly and morbidly: "Lu Sen, you must be out of spiritual energy. Hahaha! Heaven will not destroy me, Liu Furong. My destiny lies with Tianji Sect!"
He laughed so crazily that he seemed to die of laughter.
Lu Sen really had no more redstone bombs at this time, as he had thrown them all. He looked around and found that many disciples of the Tianji Sect seemed to have gathered around him.
Lu Xianxian controlled the aircraft to land, and stood next to Lu Sen, asking, "My dear, do you want me to go down and make a scene?"
Lu Sen shook his head: "There's no need. If the other party sets up an ambush or a killing move below, we will just be sending ourselves to die!"
Lu Xianxian smiled and stopped talking. Instead, she stepped back and gave the main seat to Lu Sen.
Lu Sen had no intention of talking nonsense with Liu Furong. He took out gems and other synthetic materials from his system backpack and started synthesizing redstone bombs on the spot!
Since more than a hundred bombs can only barely blow up the Fusang tree, I will add a hundred more. Now that there is no Fusang tree, Lu Sen doesn't believe that he can't kill these people.
Liu Furong was below and couldn't see what Lu Sen was doing with his hands, but he also had a bad feeling and his laughter stopped abruptly.
Just when Lu Sen had just synthesized a redstone bomb, something suddenly happened below.
Only half of the hibiscus tree trunk was emitting a green light.
Seeing this, Lu Sen was afraid that something might happen, so he immediately stopped the synthesis and flew the aircraft high, leaving the opponent's light coverage.
Lu Xianxian also flew a little higher like she did with Lu Sen.
Liu Furong looked at the hibiscus tree that was glowing green, his face full of astonishment.
Then the light from the hibiscus tree trunk became brighter and brighter, and in a short period of time, it turned into a huge light source!
The light was so bright that even though Lu Sen was hiding on the aircraft, he still felt extremely uncomfortable.
Moreover, this light also affected the aircraft's "monitoring" accessories, and the radar and imagers on it all became like snowflakes.
Lu Sen hurriedly said to the person beside him: "Fly higher, something is wrong."
The four aircraft flew as high as they could, and the green light below was so bright that it seemed as if the entire sky was occupied by this green light.
But then, the green light disappeared in an instant, and the world returned to its original state.
Lu Sen looked down and found that Fuso Island had disappeared, and even left a huge "hole" on the sea.
As if time had stopped for a short while, the surrounding sea water began to rush into the hole, forming a huge vortex. After a while, the sea surface finally calmed down again.
Lu Xianxian flew down and said, "The Fusang tree is dead!"
Lu Sen looked at her curiously: "Fusang Island is gone, does that mean the Fusang tree is dead?"
"No, it's the Fusang tree that will emit a bright green light after it dies!" Lu Xianxian explained, "When I was a child, I heard Daji's grandmother tell an ancient story. In the wild times, Houyi shot down nine golden birds, and only one golden bird was left. It had to shine on the earth during the day, but it was very tired and had to sleep at night, so it had no time to take care of the Fusang tree. At that time, the Fusang tree was too lonely, so it became depressed and died. Before it died, it emitted a bright green light that was comparable to the bright sun, and all living things in the world could see it!"
Hearing this, Lu Sen breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought the Fusang tree had some secret method to escape alive! Wait, there is a loophole in your story. Without the Fusang tree, where would the Golden Crow live?"
"Oh, that's just a story. It's used to illustrate what happens after the Fusang tree dies. Don't take it seriously. Also, although the Fusang tree is dead, the Tianji Sect is not destroyed!" Lu Xianxian said worriedly: "Just now I felt a huge amount of spiritual energy being released. I guess the Tianji Sect was transferred away by the Fusang tree before it died!"
Lu Sen smiled happily and said, "It doesn't matter. Without the Fusang tree, Tianji Sect will lose its luck and spiritual energy source. It's like a tiger without claws and fangs. It's worse than a cat. What else can it do?"
