Eternal Sacred King

2231 Might of the Willow Tree

In Level 4, the gigantic willow tree not far away from the teleportation formation was undergoing a shocking transformation!

For some reason, countless willow leaves withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The drooping willow branches withered rapidly as well.

The ancient and rough bark of the willow tree peeled off bit by bit.

However, the lifeforce in the willow tree’s body intensified!

“This disciple of the academy has benefited from misfortune. It’s a blessing!”

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling lamented.

His cultivation realm was the highest and his judgment and knowledge far surpassed others.

He could tell that after the Essence Spirit of this academy disciple fused with the Gigantic Willow Essence Spirit, his Essence Spirit realm had probably already broken through to the Heaven Immortal realm. Now that his body was reborn and he had undergone a complete transformation, his future was limitless!

Initially, the endowment of this academy disciple could be seen at a glance.

Although he had joined Heaven and Earth Academy, he would only be a Heaven Immortal in the future at most.

But now that he had obtained such a huge opportunity, the potential of this lad was unimaginable!

Naturally, Su Zimo obtained the most treasures in the Nine Heavens this time round.

Apart from him, this disciple of Heaven and Earth Academy benefited the most.

“What great methods,”

Perfected Immortal Xie Ling could not help but sigh when he thought about how this academy disciple’s opportunities were related to Su Zimo as well.

Initially, Xie Ling was displeased with Su Zimo for snatching the foundation treasure of Level 4.

But now, after witnessing the battle earlier on, Xie Ling thought about it and realized that it was nothing much for Su Zimo to take away the treasures; he would just treat it as a favor for the latter.

At the very least, it was not a bad thing for the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom to be on good terms with this lad.

Before long.

The willow tree had already completed its transformation and the original gigantic willow tree had vanished. In its place was a seemingly skinny willow tree sapling.

The trunk was only as thick as an arm and there were only a few willow branches hanging down. They were slender and weak, as though they could be snapped by a gust of wind.

The willow sapling began to sway continuously before intensifying.

“Haiya!”

Before long, the willow tree let out a slightly tender human voice and pulled itself out of the mud in one go, revealing its roots.

After that action, the willow tree seemed to have expended a lot of energy and stood on the spot to rest.

Pausing for a moment, the body of the willow tree gradually changed. Many roots gathered and the trunk evolved.

Right in front of many cultivators, the willow tree disappeared and in its place was a child around nine years old. Liu Ping’s appearance could vaguely be seen through his eyes.

The child wore a green robe and had makeup on. His hair was naturally tied into a few small pigtails that swayed slightly like willow branches.

After transforming into his human form, the child lowered his head and was stunned.

“So short?”

The child looked at his fair and tender hand and was shocked. “So small?”

The child hurriedly conjured a sparkling mirror and looked at it. Instantly, he was scared out of his wits and smashed the mirror with a punch.

“F*ck!”

The child cursed.

However, his voice was tender and the vulgarity sounded out of place.

“Junior Brother Su, what have you gotten me into?!”

The child was Liu Ping who had devoured the Gigantic Willow Essence Spirit and wanted to cry.

Indeed, he inherited the body of the gigantic willow and was reborn, synthesizing perfectly with this body. However, for some reason, he returned to his childhood appearance.

Liu Ping checked out his seemingly weak body hurriedly.

“Eh?”

Liu Ping was slightly stunned.

His cultivation realm did not reverse and his Essence Spirit had already broken through to the Heaven Immortal realm!

Furthermore, although this body was skinny, the lifeforce and power contained in it was extremely terrifying and perfectly inherited the power of the gigantic willow!

“This…”

Liu Ping clenched his fists in disbelief and muttered to himself, “Although my body has shrunk, I seem to be stronger than before?”

“Wait, Junior Brother Su is in danger!”

Suddenly, Liu Ping thought of Su Zimo and hurried towards the teleportation formation with his short legs. The pigtails on his head were almost flying.

After arriving at the teleportation formation, Liu Ping ascended to Level 5 without hesitation!

After arriving at Level 5, Liu Ping determined his direction and was about to sprint in the direction of the Earth Ranking stele when he frowned.

Not far away, a figure was clutching his chest and staggering over.

The person’s face was pale and he was covered in blood. One of his eyes was blind and he emitted a faint blood stench, looking extremely wretched.

“Tie Han?”

Liu Ping’s eyes widened and he almost did not recognize this person.

...

Compared to the cold and ruthless Great Commander of the Earth Execution Guards previously, Tie Han was in a wretched state, looking like a stray dog.

Liu Ping did not know how Tie Han ended up in such a state.

However, when he recalled how Tie Han chased after him previously, he could not help but sneer. He took a step forward and blocked Tie Han’s path.

Tie Han stopped in his tracks and rolled his single eye, glaring at the child before him.

The child looked familiar. However, his Essence Spirit was injured and his mind was in chaos.

Coupled with the fact that he was severely injured by Su Zimo this time round and had suffered a huge blow, he did not think too much about it. His expression darkened as he said coldly, “Where did this child come from? Scram and don’t stand in the way!”

Even if he was severely injured by Su Zimo and his Essence Spirit was hurt, ordinary Earth Immortals were not his match!

A starving camel was still bigger than a horse!

He was the Great Commander of the Earth Execution Guards and possessed countless killing methods!

“Child?”

Liu Ping glared and grit his teeth. “Open those dog eyes of yours and take a good look at who Your Daddy is!”

...

Liu Ping’s words were rather imposing. However, it was useless when he said it in the voice of a child.

“Little cub, you don’t know what’s good for you!”

Tie Han did not take Liu Ping seriously at all. He reached out and grabbed Liu Ping’s head!

Liu Ping’s head was not even as big as his palm!

Although he could not use his Essence Spirit, divine powers or secret skills, his physique and blood qi alone were enough to kill most Earth Immortals!

Because of the injury on his chest, Tie Han endured the pain and remained silent!

His palm strike was enough to crush the child’s head!

Liu Ping was alarmed.

He had witnessed Tie Han’s methods and did not dare to fight him head-on.

Liu Ping was about to circulate the immortal arts and divine powers of the academy to defend against Tie Han’s palm when for some reason, an unfamiliar memory surged into his mind.

As though he was possessed, he shook his head gently.

As though they were sentient, the few pigtails on his head suddenly transformed into a few slender and tender willow branches that whipped towards Tie Han’s palm!

Piak! Piak! Piak!

There were a few crisp sounds!

A few scarlet blood scars appeared on Tie Han’s arm!

The willow branches wrapped around Tie Han’s arm and tightened.

To Liu Ping’s shock, the willow branches dug into Tie Han’s flesh so deep that his bones could be seen!

Sticky blood flowed out with a chilling intent. However, the willow branches were fearless and did not have any blood stains—they were still emerald green.

If he continued exerting strength, Tie Han’s arm might be snapped by a few willow branches!
