Chu Tian saw the opponent's attack. The only thing he could think of at the moment was the Myriad Beasts Seal.
But he forgot, there was still a little guy called Yueyue…
"Ya Ya Ya…"
Chu Tian had only managed to utter two syllables when he heard a childish voice.
With a whoosh, a figure appeared out of thin air before him.
"Ugly monster! If Sister Ya Ya hadn't stopped me, Yueyue would have eaten you the moment you stepped in! And now… you dare to attack Yueyue's master! Yueyue is so angry!"
Her sudden appearance caught Chu Tian by surprise.
This was his first time seeing the Moon God's Wrath, transformed…
She had materialized into a chubby infant wearing a bib, radiating a rosy glow.
She appeared to be a girl.
While Chu Tian was momentarily stunned, the opponent did not hesitate.
With a cruel expression, endless black energy coalesced into chains and directly lashed out towards the adorable chubby infant and Chu Tian.
Chu Tian instinctively reached out to grab Yueyue.
But as soon as his hand extended, Yueyue swung her tiny fists, and with a whoosh…
As if teleporting, she vanished from her original spot and reappeared behind the man in black.
A gaping hole on his chest was rapidly healing.
In Yueyue's hand was a ball of light condensed from black mist.
Crunch… crunch. With two bites, she stuffed it into her mouth.
"Ah…" Whether it was pain or heartbreak, the will of the small world let out a sudden cry, and the black chains hurtling towards Chu Tian accelerated.
Chu Tian, however, transitioned from tension to calm.
His expression even held a… mysteriously charming smile.
Hiss hiss hiss…
Just as the black chains were about to reach Chu Tian.
A series of whistling sounds filled the air.
Behind Chu Tian, ten thousand pale green light projections shot forth.
They were even more numerous than the black chain shadows unleashed by the opponent.
In an instant, the hiss hiss hiss of needle points against rough cloth…
Although the seemingly emerald green light lacked the momentum of the black energy.
At that very moment, all the black chains exploded.
Transforming into endless black energy, they were completely absorbed by the green light projections.
"What? Impossible…" The man was shocked.
He had never expected Chu Tian to possess such an ability.
"Yeyeyeyeh… Sister Ya Ya is still amazing… This guy's energy is so pure. Even this overflow of power is so delicious!" Yueyue exclaimed joyfully.
As she spoke, with a swish, she transformed into white light and pierced through the black figure once more.
In her hand, she held another crystalline black sphere.
In fact, Yueyue had penetrated him multiple times in that instant.
However, the man had simply disregarded it.
The amount Yueyue took from him couldn't even be described as a drop in the ocean.
Perhaps it was more like ninety thousand drops in the ocean…
It barely caused him any loss.
As Yueyue called out, a small head emerged from behind Chu Tian.
She appeared significantly larger than Yueyue.
Looking around four years old.
Also a little girl, she wore a grass crown woven from an emerald green branch on her head.
Adorned with dewdrops of emerald green leaves…
And twenty-seven cherry-sized fruits.
Arranged around the entire crown.
She wore a light green gauze dress, and her lively appearance already hinted that when she grew up, she would undoubtedly be a beauty surpassing… the kind that brings down nations.
Most importantly, the aura she exuded was so fresh and ethereal, as if she shouldn't have existed in this world.
"Ya Ya?" Chu Tian asked cautiously.
"Mmm…" The maiden smiled sweetly at Chu Tian.
"Tree of Life?" Seeing her smile, Chu Tian was taken aback, a sense of inexplicable familiarity blooming in his heart.
"Mmm!" She softly replied to Chu Tian once more.
Her small face even blushed slightly, showing a hint of shyness. After answering Chu Tian, she hid behind him, peeking out with half an eye, staring at the encroaching invader radiating black energy in the distance.
"Brother… Brother… he is very strong!" Ya Ya said softly after a glance.
"Uh…" Chu Tian was stunned by her addressing him as "Brother."
An inexplicable emotion surged from the depths of his heart, an endless wave of affection.
He had lived alone since childhood. Even when he was in the orphanage, he was an outlier.
Now… that feeling was akin to having family.
A sense of blood connection instantly filled Chu Tian's body and mind.
It was natural to feel this way.
The Tree of Life had been growing within him…
Now that she had transformed, she naturally shared a blood connection with him.
Just as he had entered, his attention had been drawn to the consciousness of the small world that had invaded.
He hadn't noticed that the Tree of Life, which had always grown directly in front of the divine gate, had lost its canopy.
Simultaneously gone was the War Spear of the Moon God's Wrath – The Healer, which had always floated above the canopy.
It wasn't until Yueyue suddenly appeared, followed by his discovery of a beautiful little girl behind him.
And hearing Yueyue mention Ya Ya.
As well as… his discovery of the missing canopy.
He had already guessed her identity.
Furthermore, she stated from behind Chu Tian, "I can handle it."
This was why Chu Tian's extreme worry had turned into composed confidence!
"Can you win?" Chu Tian asked softly.
Ya Ya shook her head and said softly, "Can I capture him and digest him slowly?"
Digest?
Chu Tian blinked… then understood her meaning.
It likely meant to slowly extract the energy from him and turn it to her own use.
"Okay…" Chu Tian nodded.
Daotian had told him that the will of a small world was actually a self-aware, powerful, and condensed soul force.
If he absorbed it, his soul level would probably become heaven-defying, wouldn't it?
Chu Tian rejoiced inwardly, having already forgotten Daotian's advice.
Upon receiving Chu Tian's permission, Ya Ya's small body flickered, transforming into a green light.
She shot towards a spot not far in front of the divine gate.
Transforming into the Tree of Life, her massive canopy instantly appeared, and countless branches surged forth, shooting towards the man in black.
"What the hell is this…" The man was startled. A surge of black mist billowed out, condensing a massive black scale shield in front of him.
Hiss hiss hiss…
The black scale shield, which looked impressive, had just appeared when the branches of the Tree of Life arrived.
Chu Tian had expected some sort of confrontation.
However, to his surprise… all the branches vanished just before the shield.
As if piercing through space, they did not collide with it.
Subsequently, the man in black's entire body trembled violently, and he spun around abruptly.
The black scale shield moved rapidly with his turn.
But… it was too late.
Behind him, adhering to his back, countless branches broke through space and surged forth.
Space… redirection?
Such an incredible thought flashed through Chu Tian's mind.
At this moment… he could still see the branches of the Tree of Life continuously growing wildly.
However, at a certain node, a rupture appeared.
