Chapter 356 Violent "Treeman
```
A barrage of attacks swept toward the Crow Man, who astonishingly did not dodge or evade, simply standing still, allowing those attacks to hit him.
The Ghost Samurai did not attack the Crow Man, but carrying the Serpent of Finale hammer, he strode toward the knight's Armor.
The golden hammer crashed down on the Armor, sending it flying like a cannonball.
Xu Changrong's reasoning was simple. Since the enemy wanted to summon that broken Armor, wouldn't driving it away solve the problem?
Seeing the knight's Armor being driven away from the Ghost Samurai, Xu Yi's heart did not ease, because both the Crow Man and the Lizard Dragon seemed too calm.
The Crow Man's left eye was destroyed, and one of his metal legs was broken. He knelt on the ground, still looking in the direction of the knight's Armor.
Suddenly, the knight's Armor disintegrated, and a black seed with a green hue burst out of the wreckage, flying towards the Crow Man.
Xu Yi gazed at the half-rotten World Tree Seed.
Compared to when he first saw it, the seed now looked much more withered, as if on its last breath.
It seemed that driving the knight's Armor and entering the Gate of Truth had not been without cost to the seed.
Xu Yi raised his gun and fired, his Caris bullet intercepting the seed with precision.
The invariably effective Caris bullet only managed to stop it momentarily. Once the Energy of True God's bones was exhausted, the seed still entered the Crow Man's body, like a drop of water merging into the sea.
The Lizard Dragon turned its head away, unable to bear the sight.
To unleash the power of the World Tree Seed, there are usually two types of carriers: one is the Spirit of All Living Things, and the other is like them, "Eternal Souls."
But whether it is a Spirit of All Living Things or an Eternal Soul, once they become a carrier for the World Tree Seed, they can no longer separate until the seed has consumed the carrier's soul entirely.
This meant that the Crow Man, having merged with the seed, was doomed to die.
The metallic scales on the surface of the Crow Man opened and closed, fine vines spreading from the crevices, wrapping his body tightly. In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a "Tree-man."
The vines bore black-green leaves that caught fire, whirling the black-green flames into the Crow Man's body. Columns of dark green steam billowed from him.
The complexion of everyone present changed, their bodies trembling slightly, their souls shivering.
An overwhelmingly wild aura assaulted them. They felt like they had reverted to being ordinary people, navigating a small boat on the ocean, while a raging tempest enveloped them, threatening to capsize their vessel at any moment.
With the black box clasped tightly in its arms, the Lizard Dragon had understood.
Augustus had done more than just make his soul into a carrier. He had ignited the seed, and with it, his own soul.
He had left no way out for himself, thus reaching this frightful extent.
Instinctively, the eyes of everyone there turned to Xu Yi. Although nobody said it aloud, they all looked to him as their mainstay, including both Boston and the church people.
They were all well aware that they stood no chance against the Tree-man.
To fight or to retreat, Xu Yi had a clearer understanding than any of them.
But then they were startled, for Xu Yi had vanished. In fact, he'd slipped away quietly as soon as the Tree-man entered its frenzied state.
They didn't think Xu Yi had fled from the battle; rather, they were curious about the purpose of his action.
"Try to buy as much time as possible! Xu Yi has gone to prepare the secret weapon!"
The Ghost Samurai roamed the battlefield, whispering, transmitting this message to each person.
......
Xu Yi sat astride the Black Carp, its wings beating as they flew towards the source of the beam of light.
Of the seven beams in the sky, only two remained, their light gradually fading. Without sufficient Energy for the sacrifice, the Gate of Truth was slowly closing.
The moment the tree seed entered the Crow Man's body, Xu Yi knew that there was no turning back.
Even if he could start over with a Resurrection Coin, he had no confidence in stopping the opponent, especially since he only had two more chances to resurrect today. Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire
His body was still not fully recovered, and the power he could wield was very limited. Rather than being a bystander there, it was better to seek a way to solve the problem.
Xu Yi checked the Serpent of Finale within his soul.
On the Serpent of Finale, the serpent heads representing "Envy," "Greed," and "Sloth" were now brimming with dazzling radiance.
```
This indicates that these three Source of Sin weapons have already "charged up."
He was aware of the past events, how "Envy" Sugar Plum Fairy, "Envy" Emperor Ramses, and "Sloth" Behemoth were all taken care of by the corresponding weapons.
Having devoured the remnants of the Origin, these three arms had reached the standard for fusion.
"If the 'Ultimate Weapon' can be combined, perhaps it can resolve the Crow Man!"
This was the solution Xu Yi had come up with.
The "Ultimate Weapon" can be fused three times in total, and this was only the first time, so the energy requirement wasn't very high.
"There are still four Source of Sin weapons left, Anger and Gluttony are manageable, but what about Lust and Pride?"
Xu Yi's brows wrinkled involuntarily, at this point all he could do was take it one step at a time.
......
"Cass! Block it!"
Following little Judy's roar, Cass charged forward with the "Lust" Recurve Knife in hand, a dark yellow shield blocking in front of his classmates.
The tentacles surged forward, and the shield stood firm like a dam intercepting a flood.
Carrie shouted loudly, slashing with the "Envy" Knight's Sword in her hand, sending a fierce firestorm towards the tentacled monster in front of them.
Since their "tower pushing squad" was relatively far from the Gate of Truth, they had not been able to keep abreast of the situation there and were still faithfully carrying out the original plan.
"Has it become so small?"
Xu Yi was surprised looking down at the "Gluttony" host, Augustus, who had been so colossal back in the Atlantis ruins.
He finally arrived at one of the metal towers.
This was thanks to the Black Carp, otherwise, with his gravely injured body, who knew when he would have reached it.
Augustus was only the size of an adult, plainly human-shaped, yet not a single human organ could be found on it, its entire body composed of tentacles.
It was uncertain how the Ring of Destruction had modified it, turning it into this state.
"This has to be a quick battle!"
Xu Yi knew he had no time to waste, as the people on the battlefield were in dire straits, so he had to act fast.
He lifted his Alchemy Revolver and aimed, activating the Silent Domain, he pulled the trigger, firing two consecutive shots with Cass bullets.
Now was not the time to care about the precious Cass bullets.
The bullets hit Augustus in the chest and head, respectively, prompting a painful scream from him as the tentacles flailed wildly.
Xu Yi's eyes brightened, he knew the opportunity had come.
At the same time, two streams of light fell from the sky, landing in Xu Yi's hands, they were the "Gluttony" Dagger and "Anger."
After leaving the Gate of Truth, he had started summoning these two weapons. The weapons left Notting Hill, and only now reached his hands.
As blood blazed, Xu Yi squeezed out the little remaining strength in his body and violently hurled the "Gluttony" Dagger.
The black-gold dagger passed through the gaps in the tentacles, piercing through Augustus' chest. The severely injured Augustus couldn't resist, and the Origin inside it was gradually extracted.
At this moment, a golden light flew across the sky, illuminating the foggy layers of Boston, that was the Doomsday Blade aiming for the last source of light.
Boston's most powerful weapon had finally been activated.
It wasn't that Boston's higher-ups were slow to respond, but because the other high towers were around the city outskirts, the Doomsday Blade, with its powerful radiation, was not suitable, and the Doomsday Arc's power was not enough.
The metal tower protected by the "Angry Tree" was supposed to be in the city as well.
However, after the Angry Tree's hiding spot was discovered, the Ring of Destruction's people had no choice but to move it outside the city, which provided the opportunity to use the Doomsday Blade.
The Doomsday Blade fell, and Xu Yi watched as the golden sun rose from the horizon, its dazzling light reflecting off the surrounding fog and turning it golden.
Xu Yi was somewhat pleased because this meant he could save a lot of time.
The mere radiation from Doomsday Crystal Stones couldn't harm the Origin of Sin, so he didn't have to worry about the Origin being destroyed.
