“Dragon Lord, this matter is a long story.”
“During the year you left, under the Kunlun Mountains, a lot of things happened.”
Facing Ye Fan’s enquiry, Gaia let out a sigh before slowly recounting to Ye Fan what had happened this year.
It turned out that ever since a year ago, after the World Martial Alliance side had determined their course to destroy the World Tree, they had used almost every means possible to devastate the divine tree in front of them.
They had first gathered the power of the global Sealed Patriarchs to continuously and indiscriminately bombard the World Tree for more than a month.
However, it did not harm half of its branches and leaves at all.
After that, they even used fire, flooding, and even poisoning…
In short, every imaginable way was used.
However, the world tree in front of me, but as if it had an immortal body.
Not afraid of swords, not afraid of water and fire.
As for poisoning is even more useless.
At the end of their tether, mankind used the last resort.
That is, the use of nuclear weapons, the final blow to the world tree.
To this end, nuclear powers such as Yan Xia, Soviet Russia, and Milliken dropped several Yuan bullets under the World Tree one after another.
Even hydrogen bombs, which were far more powerful than meta-bullets, were used.
On the day of the explosion. Almost all of the thousands of miles around became barren land.
The barren mountains were razed to the ground, and the grass and trees were turned into flying ash.
The rocks were almost burnt into nothingness by the high temperature.
The mushroom cloud that shot up into the sky was surprisingly visible even from halfway across the globe.
“What’s the result?”
“Any effect?” Ye Fan couldn’t help but get nervous as well.
Nuclear weapons should be the most powerful force in this world.
Especially the hydrogen bomb.
Back then, Ye Fan, almost died under a nuclear weapon.
Of course, the power of the nuclear weapons dropped in the southwestern border land at that time was still much worse compared to the hydrogen bomb.
Therefore, Ye Fan wondered how much effect this kind of earthly supreme power could have on this World Tree.
Gaia was silent for a moment, and then said with a gloomy face, “It has an effect.”
“The very centre of the nuclear explosion, the power that was strong enough to burn everything, finally shook the World Tree.”
“At that time, I only saw that after the nuclear explosion ended, there was a leaf of the World Tree that floated down.”
“That’s all.”
Gaia’s grave words slowly resounded in this dark night.
Deadly silence!
Deadly silence!
In the vast heavens and earth, it seemed that only the sound of air flowing was left.
The sound of the sluggish wind blew the leaves of the boundless trees, rustling.
However, the sound of the leaves swaying was as if, the World Tree in front of them, was mocking and scornful of humans.
“Dragon Lord, the gap, is really too great.”
At the end of his words, Gaia let out a long sigh, tilted his head and drank the wine in the jug.
Next to Zhang Nanhai, his eyes were also a little red.
All along, in the eyes of the world, humans should be the highest class of creatures on Earth.
Humans, who had always been at the top of the food chain, suddenly one day found that the most sophisticated technological weapons that they were so proud of, that destructive power, was just a touch of wind blowing on the world tree,
Can you imagine how strong the blow was?
How strong was that sense of frustration.
It was a gap that was enough to make people despair.
It was enough to destroy the pride and confidence that mankind had cultivated over millions of years.
Hearing this, Ye Fan also fell silent.
For a long time, he was unable to speak.
Although he had already expected the result, when he heard that the nuclear powers had put in their best efforts, even attacking with hydrogen bombs, it was only blowing off a leaf of the world tree.
With this result, even Ye Fan’s heart trembled.
A great sense of powerlessness surged through his heart.
“What happened afterwards?” After a long silence, Ye Fan continued to ask.
“It was only after that that the world’s nations truly realised how powerful and invincible the World Tree was.”
“A mood of pessimism and despair enveloped everyone’s heart.”
“At this point, the plan to destroy the World Tree was completely bankrupt.”
“The major countries have given up. Instead, they chose another path, the path of escape.”
“After the nuclear explosion, the martial artists who stayed under the Kunlun Mountains evacuated to their homes.”
“Some went back to mingle and wait for death, while some began to operate to buy connections, hoping to obtain a few tickets to board the ship when the end comes.”
“Of course, most of the strongest people have joined the spaceship forging, as well as the Mars construction ranks.”
“It can be said that right now, all the major countries are putting their main focus on building Mars, as well as building spaceships.”
“Obviously, those national leaders are already prepared to give up on Earth, and give up on the billions and billions of ordinary people.”
“Preparing to move to Mars when the end comes.”
“However, even if Mars really has certain conditions for survival after construction.”
“But when the time comes, those who will truly have the chance to move up there are afraid that only those powerful and wealthy people who hold the resources.”
“The majority of people, they will not be able to avoid the ending of flying ashes and annihilation.”
With regards to these things, Gaia had already looked down.
He was just sighing with emotion.
It was said that people were born equal, but equal my arse.
When the end came, those who could escape were only a very small part of the population.
And most people, even before they knew the situation, had somehow died in the doomsday, right?
Listening to Gaia’s narration, Ye Fan’s mood was undoubtedly also exceptionally heavy.
“It looks like the world has already given up resistance.”
“In that case, this world, will eventually come to an end.”
Ye Fan let out a sigh of emotion.
“No!”
“I haven’t given up yet!”
“Moreover, I believe that Senior Chu, like me, hasn’t given up either.” ‘
“Still searching again for a possible light and future for this world that is about to come to an end.”
“Also searching for the possibility of life for those billions and billions of lives!”
Suddenly, a youth’s firm and determined voice came from his ears.
Ye Fan looked over.
From his eyes, Ye Fan saw a fervour and passion.
It was as if a flame was burning in his eyes.
“You shouldn’t be from the Dragon God Temple, right?” Ye Fan thought for half a day, but he didn’t remember that there was such a person in the Dragon God Temple.
“Senior Chu, hello, my name is Zhang Nanhai.”
“A Yan Xia martial artist.”
Zhang Nanhai was a little excited.
He had, today, not only met the man he worshipped.
Moreover, this man, to his surprise, even talked to him.
“The people are gone, why are you still staying here?”
“Even if you really want to save the world, you should go into seclusion and cultivate.”
“Instead of moping around under this Kunlun Mountain.” Ye Fan inquired.
Gaia on the side did laugh, “Dragon Lord, this guy’s cultivation is different.”
“He said that he’s attending to the Heavenly Chance.”
“He wants to seek more profound laws of the operation of the heavens and earth from the World Tree, and then create transcendent formations that will be able to defeat the World Tree in the future.”
“Hahaha…”
“I told him to be whimsical and waste his time for nothing, but he didn’t listen.”
“Just like a dilettante, staying here all the time and not leaving, looking at the leaves all day and watching the wind blow.”
Gaia sneered and laughed.
Ye Fan sniffed, but coldly replied back, “I think you’re the douchebag.”
“Even a junior knows how to think of something to do, you old thing just knows how to mingle and sleep with women!”
“Disgraceful thing, in the future don’t say you’re hanging out with me.”
Ye Fan scolded Gaia without any good breath.
And then encouraged to Zhang Nanhai, “Your idea, there is some truth in it. Stick with it, perhaps, you can find another path for this world, another way.”
“What about you, senior? Do you also feel that everything is irreparable and you want to give up on Earth?” Zhang Nanhai, however, asked Ye Fan, desperately wanting to know the answer.
Ye Fan turned back and glanced at the mountains and rivers behind him, “These mountains and rivers are magnificent, if I don’t have no choice, how would I let the foreigners destroy my home.”
“Don’t worry, I’m like you, I won’t give up my efforts until the last moment.”
“There are still nine years left!”
“During these nine years, I’ll do everything I can to impact the God Realm!”
“At that time, I will use the power of the God Realm to chop down this Kunlun Demon Tree!”
