Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 403 - 305: Departure!

Upon hearing the words of the Treasure Tower Spirit, the protagonist inwardly groaned.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to exert more effort, but he had overdrawn himself seriously before, not a drop left to squeeze out.

The Treasure Tower Spirit was unaware, perplexed by the protagonist’s hesitance, looked at him, and asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing."

The protagonist shook his head, then gritted his teeth to exert force again, and the Buddha’s Light grew intensely.

The blinding golden light shined on the black tree roots, instantly crackling sounds filled the air, and the upright black long stick melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Good, just like that!"

The Treasure Tower Spirit was overjoyed and urged, "Push harder, soon that thing will be burnt away completely!"

The protagonist’s face turned pale, yet he still persisted, relying on sheer tenacity to fight against the black tree roots.

Uncertain how much time passed, the protagonist’s mind was dazed, nearly fainting, until he heard the Treasure Tower Spirit’s final verdict.

"It’s done!"

The Treasure Tower Spirit cheered, looking at the black ashes on the ground, let out a long sigh of relief.

"Luckily we discovered it early, only one tree root extended over; otherwise, this would have truly been dangerous."

After speaking, she glanced at the protagonist, noticing his pale face and wobbling figure, was instantly frightened: "Hey, are you okay?"

The protagonist weakly shook his head, gritting his teeth: "It’s fine, just a bit tired."

After finishing, he asked the Treasure Tower Spirit, "Have you found the passage leading to the Spirit Realm?"

The Treasure Tower Spirit immediately nodded: "Found it! The entrance to the passage is right above your Imperial Palace, I’ve already marked it, once there you can find it quickly."

The protagonist decisively said: "There’s no time to lose, let’s depart at once!"

The Treasure Tower Spirit nodded, then hesitated after seeing the protagonist’s complexion: "Your face looks terrible, are you sure there’s no problem?"

The protagonist nodded: "A little rest will be enough!"

After speaking, the protagonist said solemnly: "If the Nether Tree indeed possesses intelligence as you said, then with the tree root destroyed, it will definitely sense it. Next time it comes, it won’t be just one tree root. Therefore, we must leave the Cultivation World before it dispatches another tree root, otherwise the creatures of the Cultivation World will be in great peril!"

The Treasure Tower Spirit agreed, nodding: "Indeed, that’s the logic I’m concerned about the passage on the other side! Once the Spirit Realm passage opens, those creatures entering your Cultivation World are only the first wave, the Spirit Realm over there might still have a second wave, a third wave... You’ll face a fierce battle once you arrive there, can your state endure it?"

The protagonist had evidently considered this issue.

Upon hearing the Treasure Tower Spirit’s words, he replied without hesitation: "Don’t worry, I’m well prepared!"

Previously, while clearing the monsters in Shengjing City, the protagonist had discovered that the Power of Rules seemed to have an almost absolute suppressive effect on creatures below the Sage Level.

Relying on this unique characteristic, the protagonist was able to, in such a short time, nearly annihilate all the Otherworld creatures.

The protagonist’s Divine Soul had visited the Spirit Realm once, the situation over there is similar to the Cultivation World, Sage Level powerhouses are also rulers of their respective territories.

Since the environments are similar, the protagonist was instantly fearless.

If Buddha’s Light couldn’t deal with the Nether Tree’s roots, wouldn’t it at least handle those Otherworld monsters?

Seeing the protagonist’s persistence, the Treasure Tower Spirit said no more, nodding: "Since you’re prepared, then I won’t say more! The passage location is marked, your Divine Sense should be able to sense it."

Upon hearing this, the protagonist scanned the direction of Shengjing City and indeed spotted a distinct mark.

"It’s actually there?"

A thought struck the protagonist’s mind, and his figure disappeared from Sumeru Mountain.

In the next moment, the protagonist arrived at the back mountain of Zhao Yi’s Crown Prince’s Mansion.

The protagonist had visited the Crown Prince’s Mansion once when he discovered Su Qianqian’s Divine Soul had appeared in Yao Su’s body, almost collapsing his Dao heart, hence came to the Crown Prince’s Mansion to assassinate Zhao Yi.

He ended up poisoned by the minor toxins.

Which left a lifelong trauma in his heart!

"I remember there used to be a mountain here..."

Looking at the flattened mountain peak, the protagonist showed a startled expression.

"It should be that giant machete from before!" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The protagonist recalled that Minotaur whose Buddha’s Light could only suppress but not obliterate him.

The Minotaur held an indestructible machete.

Recalling that, when he withdrew his Buddha’s Light, the machete was not found beside the Minotaur, presumably during the chaos Zhao Yi took it.

"That bastard!"

The protagonist had lost count of how many times he cursed Zhao Yi in his heart.

With the Spirit Realm passage opened, Otherworld monsters invading.

Resisting foreign enemies, protecting the citizens of Great Xia, initially, it was Zhao Yi’s responsibility as the Crown Prince.

Yet Zhao Yi left taking his people with him, completely disregarding their lives.

Besides not acting, after the protagonist fought strenuously to eliminate the invaders, in the chaos, the spoils were taken by him.

"Truly unfilial!"

With resentment in his heart, the protagonist stamped his foot, causing a significant part of the extravagant Crown Prince’s Mansion to collapse.

Looking at the rolling smoke and debris-covered Crown Prince’s Mansion, the protagonist finally vented his anger, then carefully searched for the passage entrance.

The Treasure Tower Spirit following beside, seeing the protagonist collapsing the buildings of the Crown Prince’s Mansion, was immediately bewildered, unsure of the deeper meaning behind this.

Seeing the protagonist said nothing, she refrained from asking.

After all, being an Artifact Spirit for tens of thousands of years, still required some dignity.

Soon enough, the protagonist found the approximate location of the passage entrance.

The Treasure Tower Spirit reminded beside him: "The entrance is concealed by a Spiritual Power Sensing Array; input True Essence and it will reveal itself."

The protagonist was encountering such a space passage for the first time, attempted several times, before finally finding the method.

With the input of True Essence, the hidden passage array indeed became visible.

Facing the flickering colorful portal, even though the protagonist was mentally prepared, he still hesitated.

The Treasure Tower Spirit saw this and comforted: "Just jump in, don’t be afraid, it’s alright! Speed is essential, the Nether Tree could come searching any moment."

The protagonist also knew the situation was urgent, consequently hesitated no more, diving headlong into the multicolored passage.

Watching this scene, the Treasure Tower Spirit glanced back towards the direction of Sumeru Mountain, couldn’t perceive that alarming aura, felt relieved, then followed closely after, heading to the Spirit Realm with the protagonist.

Meanwhile.

Zhao Yi led Zuo Xiaoluo and the minor toxin to a hillside one mile away from the True Dragon.

Zhao Yi always knew the True Dragon’s body was vast.

But upon approaching, he fully realized the dragon’s majestic body.

Half of the True Dragon’s body lay on the ground, resembling a massive high mountain, a sight counting one’s astonishment!

Zhao Yi gazed deeply, spoke solemnly: "Let’s depart!"

ps: Seeking completion, seeking continuation!
