Chapter 547 - One Thing After Another
This actually all started two days ago. The Divine Deer delivered the World Fruit that Lu Ran provided to the World's Root. Originally, the Divine Tree suffered greater injuries than the Dragon God and was supposed to be dormant for many more years, but the fruit allowed it to reawaken much earlier.
Once it awakened, the Divine Tree was caught up on current events. It learned about Limitless City, the revival of Peanut and Six-Path Flower, as well as Six-Path Flower breaking through its previous limits. Eventually, the topic of Lu Ran fighting the Beast Gods came up, and it devised a strategy to help him.
If the Chaos Dragon God was still dormant and Lu Ran only had to face the three Beast Gods, then everything would be simple. Lu Ran and Tree Monarch could handle them on their own.
If the Chaos Dragon God did awaken, the Divine Tree could definitely step in to fight it, but the battle would wreak massive damage across the Stellar Moon World. The Divine Deer and the other kin of the Divine Dragons hoped to avoid this scenario.
In the end, everyone agreed on a strategy that utilized the Squirrel God’s Space powers to re-enact Xia’s initial clash with the Black Dragon King. They would seal the Chaos Dragon God until they were better prepared to fight it.
Having reached Primary Divine, the Divine Tree naturally acquired some sealing abilities along the way. Even if sealing wasn’t its specialty, it was still enough to pin down another Primary-Divine-ranked creature for a while. It would just have to be willing to pay a hefty price to do so.
For Divine-ranked creatures, being confined for a few years was no big deal. Under normal circumstances, such a tactic wouldn’t do anything besides waste the Divine Tree’s energy.
A few years weren’t enough for the balance of power to tilt the other way in most instances. However, Limitless City’s existence was a game-changer, not to mention Lu Ran and Six-Path Flower’s fate-defying nature.
Since Lu Ran helped it reawaken, the Divine Tree willingly sacrificed itself to hold the Chaos Dragon God back for a few years. This would give Lu Ran and Six-Path Flower more time to grow. It hoped that by the time the Chaos Dragon broke free, Lu Ran would be strong enough to protect the world.
That was everything that led up to what was currently happening. As soon as the Chaos Dragon God tried to act, the Divine Tree moved to suppress it. With its physical body restrained, the strand of its will that it imbued into the three Beast Gods was significantly weakened.
“Get out of the way. It’s mine!”
The Chaos Dragon God and Six-Path Flower’s divine auras repeatedly clashed in the air. After a while, Six-Path Flower got the upper hand and shattered the Dragon God’s phantom.
