845: Chapter 283 Wood God_2 845: Chapter 283 Wood God_2 The Wood God’s body trembled, but he did not turn around.
He was not surprised that the Eastern King thought of this.
“So what if I am?”
The Wood God retorted.
The Eastern King took a deep breath and said, “I advise you to abandon that idea.
Trying to break through is not something that can be achieved with external means.
You should reconsider.”
“My path does not need your guidance.”
The Wood God was displeased, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Then, the Wood God left with the Heavenly Wolf Supreme and the others.
Heavenly Wolf Supreme and the others felt a sense of dissatisfaction.
“Why didn’t the Wood God take action?”
Long’ao questioned in discontent.
If the Wood God had taken action, the battle might have turned out differently.
He deeply understood the Wood God’s prowess, which was definitely not comparable to ordinary Supremes.
But the Wood God did not make a move from start to finish, instead just watching the entire time.
Long’ao did not believe that the Wood God refrained from acting out of fear of the Eastern King; to him, the Eastern King was not that formidable.
The Wood God glanced at Long’ao and smiled faintly, saying, “Make a move?
You are underestimating the Eastern King too much.
I fought him during the Primordial times and never won.”
Upon hearing this, everyone displayed a look of surprise.
The strength of the Wood God, though mysterious during the Primordial times, was capable of slaying Supremes and Sub-Paramounts.
He was undoubtedly a formidable figure, his renown during the Primordial period was no lesser than anyone else’s.
But they never expected that far back in the Primordial times, he had already faced off against the Eastern King and gained no advantage.
The result was unexpected beyond belief.
No wonder the Wood God was reluctant to act earlier; he must not have been confident.
“Now, the Eastern King’s strength is comparable to mine.
I have no assurance of defeating him.”
Hearing the Wood God’s words, the group collectively gasped.
They all knew the Wood God had been in seclusion, continuously cultivating since the Primordial days.
In contrast, the Wood God’s power was now far beyond what it had been during the Primordial period.
Who would have thought that the relatively unknown Eastern King would have strength equal to his?
What did this imply?
It was clear they had underestimated the Eastern King.
“Are we really giving up on Kunlun?”
Heavenly Wolf Supreme asked with some reluctance.
Glancing at him, the Wood God said lightly, “Why would we give up?
Kunlun holds something I need.
Once I obtain it, I might even be able to break through to the Supreme Realm, reaching the level of The Three Pure Ones.
Naturally, I won’t give up.”
Long’ao was stunned.
The Wood God had defied the heavens to this extent, reaching the verge of the Supreme Realm of The Three Pure Ones.
No wonder he had such a determined desire for Kunlun.
In a similar position, if it were a matter related to breaking through to the Supreme, he would make the same choice as the Wood God.
At this moment, the Wood God’s gaze fell on Long’ao, startling him instantly.
Staring at the Wood God, he asked faintly, “Why are you looking at me like this, Wood God?”
“Join me, and I will give you the chance to avenge your offspring.
How about it?”
Upon hearing this, Long’ao sneered and said, “Do you think I will sell myself out and become your subordinate for the sake of avenging one of my offspring?”
He looked somewhat disdainful, with an expression of indifference.
The Wood God chuckled lightly and said, “But if you don’t join me, you will die.”
Long’ao retreated, eyeing the Wood God warily, his eyes shining with a cold light.
“Wood God, do you intend to deal with me?”
Shaking his head, the Wood God said calmly, “You have offended the Heavenly Court today.
Even if you haven’t harmed anyone from the Heavenly Court, do you think they will spare you?”
Long’ao’s heart sank; this was exactly what he was worried about.
He knew very well that even if he hadn’t harmed anyone from the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court might not let him go.
According to the Wood God, it was indeed possible that the Heavenly Court would target him and kill him.
Of course, it was also possible that the Heavenly Court might hold off for a while.
Just like the Lord of Heaven Ancestor and the Primordial Qilin, despite their conflicts with the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court hadn’t acted against them.
“I know you are betting on luck, thinking that the Heavenly Court might not act against you.
After all, the Heavenly Court hasn’t acted against the Lord of Heaven Ancestor and the others.
But don’t forget, you haven’t joined the Supreme Alliance yet.
The Heavenly Court might not have any reservations about striking you; it’s not surprising.”
Laughing, the Wood God said with narrowed eyes, “Moreover, the Heavenly Court doesn’t even need to act directly.
A single expression of intent, and the Ancestral Dragon will wipe you out.”
“Am I supposed to be afraid of a mere Ancestral Dragon?”
Long’ao sneered.
When it came to others, he wasn’t as intense.
But mention the Ancestral Dragon, and Long’ao became extremely agitated, his emotions immediately stirred.
The Ancestral Dragon was his lifelong enemy, and it was the Ancestral Dragon who annihilated his clan in his previous life.
The Wood God’s face suddenly turned cold, and he said icily, “On what grounds do you claim not to fear the Ancestral Dragon?
Do you know the Ancestral Dragon’s strength ranks ninth among the top ten in the Primordial?
Any of those ranked in the top ten Supremes of the Primordial are not weaker than me.
Given your strength, if the Ancestral Dragon hasn’t annihilated you yet, it’s likely because he hasn’t taken you seriously.
But if he wishes, he can destroy your Sea Dragon Clan at any time.”
Long’ao’s face changed.
Was the Ancestral Dragon really as formidable as claimed?
If so, the Sea Dragon Clan was in significant danger, living under the constant threat of the Ancestral Dragon.
Long’ao’s expression shifted continuously as he stared at the Wood God, asking, “If I surrender to you, can you fend off the Ancestral Dragon?”
Seeing his hesitation, the Wood God smiled faintly and said, “As long as I speak to the Ancestral Dragon and tell him you are under my protection, he won’t dare to make a move.
