Seven Deadly Sins System-Chapter 229: Tree of Life

"No! Impossible!"

A loud scream came out of Wu Feng's mouth and he looked at the distance with an expression of horror.

Only a few moments had passed, but compared to before, his appearance had completely changed.

His face had turned pale, while his body had shriveled up, making him look like a dried-up mummy.

At the same time, his Vision was nowhere to be seen, having served as a "fuel" to allow the Mother to exert her power.

However, Wu Feng didn't mind this, having known that he would have to pay a heavy price if he wanted to get rid of Chu Wuyao.

What he truly cared about was that the Mother, the seemingly indescribable existence who he was dependent on, had actually failed.

Originally, Wu Feng was a little surprised when he saw the arrival of Chu Wuyao's God Clone, but he still remained confident.

In his mind, no matter what means Chu Wuyao used and how many trump cards she possessed, it would be impossible for her to contend with the Mother.

But the next development stunned him.

Not only did Chu Wuyao wipe out the Mother with a single attack and forced her to be resurrected, but she was also able to survive her attack, an attack that was at the expense of his vitality and his Vision.

Thinking of this, a trace of panic flashed in Wu Feng's eyes.

Using his Vision to summon the phantom of the Mother was his most powerful trump card and had been his biggest source of confidence when faced with Chu Wuyao's threat.

Now that the Mother's phantom had dispersed and there was no one to hold Chu Wuyao back, Wu Feng could guess his ending.

He wanted to get up and escape, but he could hardly move his body in his current state, let alone run away.

Not only did he not succeed in getting up, but his movements seemed to have attracted Chu Wuyao's attention, who turned to look at him.

When he saw this, a begging expression appeared on Wu Feng's face and he opened his mouth to speak:

"Don't kill me. I'm willing to become your subordinate. I can help you..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, Chu Wuyao waved her hand casually, chopping down as if she were holding a sword.

"Swoosh!"

The next moment, the invisible sword seemed to teleport in front of Wu Feng and landed on his forehead, penetrating his head and extinguishing his vitality.

Throughout this whole process, Chu Wuyao didn't pay much attention to him, as her mind was occupied with something else.

"Destiny...", she whispered in a low voice and the last words of the Mother echoed in her ears, causing her expression to become gloomy.

Since Chu Wuyao had transmigrated to the Cultivation World world, she had heard the term "destiny" many times, and it could be said that she had found herself in many so-called "destined" situations over this time.

It was the so-called destiny that allowed her to obtain the inheritance of the Mist Dragon, the inheritance of the Gods in the Inheritance World, as well as the Soul Melting Technique that helped her God Clone become a real Lower God.

In a certain sense, destiny had always favored Chu Wuyao, allowing her to receive many benefits.

But despite this, Chu Wuyao had come to hate destiny.

Although she was lucky to obtain many benefits that made her speed of progress extremely fast, in her opinion, destiny was a force that was completely out of her control.

For Chu Wuyao, a person who wanted to have everything under her control, she was very unwilling to be manipulated by an outside force.

"In the end, it's all because of my lack of strength."

"If I had reached the Transcending Tribulation Realm or even the True Immortal Realm, a mere Mother wouldn't dare to appear in front of me, let alone leave behind such enigmatic words."

Chu Wuyao clenched her fists, and it was only a few minutes later that she finally relaxed, and her attention turned back to reality.

Lowering her head, she looked at the Mother's 'gift': a small branch that was covered in countless tiny green runes.

As she stared at it, Chu Wuyao showed a hint of hesitation.

From the aura that the branch exuded and the continuous throbbing of her heart, she was certain that this branch was very precious and would bring her unimaginable benefits.

However, this was something left behind by the Mother on her own accord.

The Mother's powerful strength, coupled with her last words, made Chu Wuyao feel that there should be some kind of conspiracy.

Chu Wuyao hesitated for a few seconds, but in the end, she stretched her right hand towards it.

This was not because she was reckless and didn't realize the risks of doing so, but because this was her clone and not her real body.

Since this was her God Clone, Chu Wuyao felt that she could always commit suicide and use her Kingdom of God to resurrect if anything unexpected were to happen.

With that in mind, she didn't hesitate and grabbed the small branch.

Chu Wuyao was originally expecting that some kind of change would happen and she would have to defend herself, but even when she held the branch tightly, nothing changed.

Seeing this, although she was somewhat relieved, she still didn't let down her guard and remained alert.

"Judging from the previous scene, this branch was created by the Mother using her own power, the temple, as well as the many plants that originally surrounded it."

"So this branch must be very precious, at least as precious as those plants."

"But what exactly is it?", Chu Wuyao couldn't help but think and she focused on the tiny green runes on the branch's surface.

There were millions of seemingly individual green runes on the branch, but Chu Wuyao immediately noticed that these runes worked together to form an image.

In Chu Wuyao's vision, a magnificent tree that was floating in space appeared, surrounded by countless space cracks.

Each space crack was enough to threaten Supernatural Realm cultivators, but when they brushed against the tree, they instantly dispersed.

The size of the tree was extremely large, making it impossible to describe it using meters, kilometers, or any other type of human measurement.

The lower part of the tree was made up of millions of thick roots that drilled into the space itself and squirmed continuously, looking like they were absorbing something to nurture the tree.

At the same time, the crown of the tree supported a massive continent, a continent that was as large as the tree below.

Facing this scene, it was inevitable who anyone who saw it to feel their own insignificance, just like how an ordinary human would feel insignificant when faced with the scene of the universe.

However, Chu Wuyao didn't have the time to admire them.

Subconsciously, she glanced at the densely packed runes that covered every inch of the tree's body, and the next moment, countless insights emerged in her mind, making her a little confused.

Instinctively, she wanted to step forward and get a closer look at these runes, but just when she was about to step forward, the image in her field of vision shattered and she returned back to reality.

Even though the image disappeared, it took a few minutes for Chu Wuyao to wake up.

When she did, her eyes looking at the small branch had completely changed.

"Is this a branch belonging to the Tree of Life?", she couldn't help but mutter, her voice unable to hide her surprise.

Tree of Life.

This was a name she had encountered quite a few times before, whether it was when browsing the library of the Original Desire Sect or in the various inheritances she had obtained.

As far as she knew, the Tree of Life was supposedly a mythological creature, which people claimed was the first creature that appeared in the world.

According to the rumors, every other race of the Cultivation World, whether it was the humans, the monsters, the animals, or the plants, they were all born from the Tree of Life.

Because of these stories, there were many people who considered the Tree of Life to be the progenitor of life and worshipped it as their ancestor, believing in it like a God.

Of course, such people were relatively rare, and most people simply believed that the existence of the Tree of Life was merely a figment of someone's imagination, a creature that only existed in fairytales.

Before today, Chu Wuyao had also thought so, thinking that the Tree of Life was just like the ancient myths she had heard in her previous life.

However, when she saw the image of the magnificent tall tree and the continent it supported, the name "Tree of Life" inexplicably popped up in her mind.

This name, coupled with the magnificence of the tree and its aura that was filled with life, made Chu Wuyao change her mind.

Normally, even if she learned about the Tree of Life's existence, she wouldn't care, but now that she possessed what was suspected to be its branch, she felt faintly excited.

"Although it is not certain that this branch belongs to the Tree of Life, it's clear that it must be closely related to it.", Chu Wuyao thought and her eyes that were looking at the branch glowed with a dazzling light.

But soon, this light disappeared, as her expression became heavy.

"The Mother...", Chu Wuyao whispered and the image of a charming woman with a horrifying body appeared in her mind, who was the source of this branch.
