Time continues to pass.
Less than two years had passed since the final ten-year deadline.
On Mount Kunlun, the world tree was already ten thousand metres tall.
The huge trunk pierced through the clouds.
The branches and leaves that fell were all close to covering the sky.
Moreover, just like what Ye Fan had said back then, the nutrients in the Kunlun Mountains seemed to have gradually become difficult to supply the World Tree to grow.
For a hundred miles around, all the living plants had withered.
Even the soil of the earth had experienced desertification.
This was the result of a large amount of nutrients being absorbed.
All of this seemed to foreshadow that Ye Fan’s prophecy back then was about to come true.
When the nutrients in the Kunlun Mountains were completely unable to support the growth of the World Tree, then the claws of the World Tree would reach out to the other beings on Earth.
Of course, during the time after Chu Yun’s departure, the humans on Earth were not idle.
Zhang Nanhai’s research on the Giant Formation had made great theoretical progress.
According to Zhang Nanhai’s theory, mindlessly piling up the number of people would not increase the strength of the giants without any ceiling.
There was an optimal balance of numbers for the fusion of the Giant Formation.
And based on this balance, the World Martial Alliance eventually decided to form ten giants of the seal level hierarchy.
The seal level giants, each and every one of them, would be made up of twenty seal masters.
Calculating this, a total of two hundred Sealed Grandmasters would be needed.
Back then, during the Chu Gate Battle, the global martial power had suffered heavy losses, and several Sealed Grandmasters had fallen.
Coupled with the subsequent Alien Demon Crisis, the Sealed Power was even closer to being lost.
However, after these ten years of development, that sense of crisis at the end of the world, coupled with the abundant Heaven and Earth Yuan Power under the World Tree, had helped the Earth spawn a large number of Sealed Grandmasters.
So much so, that the number of Sealed Patriarchs was now upwards of two hundred, surpassing any period in Earth’s history.
The number of Sealed Patriarchs was already this high, not to mention the Patriarch level, as well as the Patriarch One level.
All in all, according to the plan, there were ten Seal level giants, one hundred Patriarch level giants, and close to nine hundred giants below the Patriarch level.
All together, a total of one thousand giants were formed.
When the end came, these one thousand giants would be humanity’s greatest card.
They would fight for the survival of humanity!
After the plan was out, the next step was to choose the head of the giants.
Since the survival of mankind was at stake, the loyalty of the giant heads was of the utmost importance!
After all, if at the critical moment, the Giant Heads fled from the battlefield and were too afraid to go to war, it would have a huge impact on the overall situation!
In particular, the selection of the Seal Grade Giant Head was of the utmost importance!
In the end, after a meeting of the World Martial Arts Alliance, it was unanimously decided that the Giant Leader of the Seal Grade would be elected by the people.
After that, Zhang Nanhai, the creator of the Giant Formation, would personally brand them with a soul mark!
In this way, it would be ensured that nothing could go wrong.
As for the Sovereign level Giant Heads, part of them would be spirit-branded by Luo Li, while the remaining part would be ideological education.
The method of spirit branding required a huge amount of mental energy consumption, and with the limited time left, Zhang Nanhai, Luo Li, and the others simply couldn’t conduct spirit branding on too many people!
Just like this, the final preparations began in earnest.
The various countries also began to push for suitable giant heads to the Doomsday Preparation Group.
However, when the people were electing the head of the giants, without exception, they all excluded the strong men of the Chu Sect as well as the strong men of the Dragon God’s Palace.
These were all Ye Fan’s people!
As for Ye Fan, he was already considered a coward by the world and had gone into hiding in fear.
Therefore, even those men that Ye Fan used to have, were no longer trusted.
Under the Kunlun Mountain.
A large number of martial artists were cultivating here, and the current Jones family head, Mike, had also come over to join in the fun.
By his side, he was also followed by his wife and child.
After so many years, it was the first time that Mike stood close to the World Tree.
He tilted his head and looked at the World Tree in front of him, which was so high that he couldn’t see the top, and his heart was complicated.
“Honey, what’s wrong?”Next to him, the blonde haired, blue eyed beautiful woman, asked Mike with concern.
“Ellie, remember I told you, I have a very powerful brother-in-law, back then he was the top of Kunlun, saving the day and defeating the foreign devils.”
“And now in a flash, almost ten years have passed.”
“I don’t know, how is he now?My sister now, how is she?”
Looking back, Mike was filled with melancholy.
He didn’t know if he would be able to see them again in this life.’
While Mike was despondent, someone behind him suddenly slapped him in the face.
The strength of the hand was so great that even Mack, who had already stepped into the rank of Sealed Grandmaster, couldn’t help but eat the pain.
“Family Master Mike, rare, seeing you here.”
The voice came from behind.
Mack twisted his head and was instantly delighted, “Old Gaia!Owen?Why are you guys here as well?Didn’t you guys take part in the Head Giant’s selection?”
Yes, the person in front of him was no one else.
It was none other than the Dragon God powerhouses of the Dragon God Temple back then.
However, the current Dragon God Temple had been disbanded and its personnel scattered all over the place, so everyone hadn’t seen them for many years.
Mike hadn’t expected to meet them here.
“Still a Giant Head?”
“Don’t even think about it!”
“Now that group of people, they won’t even let us participate in the Giant Formation.”
“Looking at us like we’re the plague!”
“We are now, all street rats, no one treats us well.”
Old Gaia lamented.
Mike nodded.
He was one of the seven members of the Doomsday Team.
He was well aware of the fact that the leaders of all the world’s countries nowadays all had a great deal of opinions about Ye Fan.
Although they didn’t dare to openly make an enemy of Ye Fan, those men Ye Fan used to work for, the martial arts of all the countries took a cold and suppressive attitude.
“I also tried to help Mr Chu explain a few things.”
“But I, alone, am ultimately a minority and can’t decide anything.”
“Anyway, it’s better for all of you to be careful in the future.”
“I’m all worried now that once the World Tree crisis is over, when the reckoning is done in the autumn, it’s expected that you guys will be liquidated.”
Mike reminded.
He was in the middle of it, and he knew how strong the opinion of today’s martial arts path was towards Ye Fan.
It was a special moment now, and humans didn’t have the heart to fight internally yet.
But once the external crisis was lifted, and the accounts were settled after autumn, those representatives of the fleeing sects were afraid that they would all be liquidated!
Including Ye Fan!
“I’m afraid of them?”
“Aren’t they just a few giants, they think they’re invincible just because they’re big?”
“If we are really pissed off, at that time, the Dragon Lord will then lead us and sweep the world!”
Old Gaia was mouthing off.
Mike and the others all shook their heads and laughed.
Everyone knew that Gaia was joking.
The glory of the Dragon God’s Palace had been too long in the past.
In the previous battle at Yan Mountain, Ye Fan had already lost under the Giant Formation.
One could only say that the era that belonged to Chu Tianfan, to the Dragon God Hall, had already passed.
Now, Zhang Nanhai and the Giant Formation were the protagonists of this era.
“Speaking of which, Family Master Mike, what are you doing over here?You’re one of the members of the Doomsday Preparation Team, and you have a lot of work to do on a day-to-day basis, so you have time to come here to play?”
Gaia asked again.
Mike wrapped his arms around his wife in his arms, “Bringing my wife over to see, and this little guy, who keeps making noise about coming, I never had time before, and I happened to have an opening in the past two days.”
“I just didn’t expect that this world tree, have grown to be so high?”
Mike lamented.
At this time, Mike’s son ran over with gusto, “Dad, dad, can I touch it?”
But Mike stopped it, “Don’t touch it, stay away from it.Honey, hurry up and carry him over.”
Although up until now, there hadn’t been any incidents of the World Tree maliciously hurting people.
And for so many years, the World Tree had been growing here, nothing unusual.
However, this World Tree, sooner or later, was going to eat people.
Mike still didn’t want his wife and child to get too close.
However, just as Mike’s wife went up to carry back her son, the World Tree, which had been motionless for years, suddenly trembled.
One of the branches on its body, as if it was a long whip swinging down, went straight from Mike’s wife and son, through and through!
Crimson blood instantly dyed the Kunlun earth.
“Son!”
Mike instantly reddened his eyes and shouted miserably.
All of this, happened too quickly.
No one had expected that the World Tree, which had been silent for many years, would reveal its man-eating fangs at this moment.
For a time, the entire audience was horrified.
Everyone was so scared that they frantically retreated.
World Tree, rioting in advance.
