Chapter 560

Richard held the ancient god statue and quickly approached the rotten tree that had yet fully recovered.

Although the rotten tree already waved its branches, it only subconsciously defended itself and had not regained consciousness if one had to judge from its stiff posture.

The ruler of the abyss did not control the rotten tree either.

The dim light of the ancient god statue resisted the corrosion of the decaying authority.

!!
Not only did the power not dissipate, but it became even hotter.

Desire…The ancient god statue was like a hungry shark that smelled blood.

It was restless.

Richard flew over slowly. The sand around him would quickly decay and crumble once it left the range of the light.

It was as if nothing could last long in the decaying authority.

That was the power of laws that robbed time.

The closer he got to the rotten tree, the more he could sense how terrifying the pressure was.

The twisted branches waved slightly, and extreme evil darkness shrouded the tree trunk with countless human heads.

Ordinary people that stood under the tree trunk were as small as ants before an elephant.

Richard approached Renee. She tried her best to control the rotten tree with her divine power.

This divine soul’s body had already become transparent, and the aura that her body emitted was supremely frail.

The rotten authority could devour it at any time.

Richard placed a hand on Renee’s shoulder, and in the next moment, the dim light of the ancient god statue spread out and protected Renee.

Instantly, the feeling of being on the verge of collapse disappeared, and she slowly returned to normal.

“Lord, the power contained in the rotten tree is too overwhelming. I can’t control it with my divine power.”

Guilt engulfed Renee’s gaze.

She didn’t expect that even though the rotten tree partially regained consciousness, the subconscious release of the ancient god statue’s power to protect her made her feel helpless.

Moreover, a majestic power hid in the other party’s body. It was like an abyss sea. It was endless.

Her strength was like a child’s compared to a dragon’s.

Richard nodded slightly.

“Let me do it.”

The rotten tree was complicated. The source of its power was the ruler who controlled the entire plane of the abyss.

Even though it was still far from recovery, it was still not something ordinary people could imagine.

“If you are outside, other demons will approach.”

Renee held her chest.

“I will obey your orders.”

As soon as she finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared and appeared outside.

Several demons guarded the rotten tree. The ruler must have planned something new with the cunning of these evil creatures.

Richard looked at the rotten tree before him. It seemed to suppress the lava about to erupt.

The surging energy and pressure made his skin hurt.

No one could imagine how exaggerated the scene would be if this giant tree were to revive.

Although the enemy was powerful and fierce, his gaze was burning with passion.

“The rotten authority… The power of laws.

“This is the closest I’ve ever gotten to the ultimate power of this world.

“If I can obtain the power of laws that only gods can control now, then in the future, whether it’s becoming a transcendent, a glorious, or even planning to become a god, there will be great benefits.”

His gaze became increasingly wanton. He gripped the statue in his hand tightly and pressed it against the tree trunk.

‘Peng!’

A dull sound rang out.

In an instant.

The ancient god statue shone brightly like a candle splashed with gasoline.

It burst into flames.

The dim light quickly spread along the trunk of the rotten tree. In a few breaths, it enveloped most of it.

‘Gu gu gu!’

The dark light was like a dried sponge thrown into the river. And it began to devour the power of the rotten tree.

The mist-like rotten power in the surroundings gradually thinned.

It shook the foundation of the rotten authority.

The rotten tree’s twisted trunk increasingly swung as if it sensed an incoming danger.

Some of the tree trunks began to smash toward Richard.

One could compare it to a battering ram three times thicker than a millstone.

Richard did not back down. He pressed down on the ancient god statue and waved his hand. He turned his flesh and bones into the sand.

‘Bang!’

The tree trunk smashed down.

The sand exploded, and a portion of it flew out of the area covered by the dim light and directly rotted and collapsed.

After the remaining sand had formed, Richard frowned. His body was now half broken.

It looked miserable.

He lowered his head slightly and looked at the ground into an exaggerated hole. The yellow sand on his body surged.

In the next second, the sand outside the rotten authority surged out.

The vast amount of yellow sand enormously delayed the time of decay and collapse.

A large amount of sand rushed over. It repaired the damaged body.

Richard made up his mind.

The rotten authority was the power of rules. But there was only a wisp of it, and no one initiated to control it.

Therefore, there was an obvious flaw–the energy of rotten items had an upper limit.

He continued to control the sand on the ground to rise with a wave of his hand.

Around him formed a thick yellow sand shield several meters.

It forcefully blocked the smashing of the withered and twisted giant tree trunk.

Sand and gravel flew in the sky.

At this moment, the ancient god statue emitted an aura and became increasingly turbulent.

The rotten authority covered an area and gradually shrank.

Richard could sense that something gradually added power to the statue.

It carried an ancient, lonely, dark, and decaying aura that time had washed away.

It made one’s heart palpitate inexplicably.

The ancient god statue devoured the rotten authority!

At this moment, a series of shrill roars came from afar.
