Chapter 396: Word Follows the Law

"Very well, then I shall help you fulfill your wish, and I also hope you, little friend, will keep your promise."

The Secret Realm master's thoughts stirred, and a green seed rich with vitality separated from Meng Yifan's liver, then this seed burrowed into the ground, took root, and sprouted, turning into a tiny, emerald-green root system.

Immediately following, this root system grew rapidly, spreading out in all directions.

The old locust tree and the man-eating flower, these two Fifth Grade Lower Tier Demon Beasts, faced these roots and unreservedly split the bark on their own root systems, allowing these roots to merge into their bodies.

All the surrounding plants, as if welcoming their own kin, also successively guided these roots to merge into their bodies.

Meng Yifan discovered with surprise that every time these green roots connected to a plant, the threads would absorb some energy and then split and grow; one became two, two became four, four became eight, and very quickly they split into countless strands.

Almost in an instant, with the Secret Realm master as the center, the roots that had grown out split and spread through every plant, connecting all the plants in the Wood Element World.

"From a point to a line, and then to a plane; what a miraculous method. The Secret Realm master has used the root system to weave a network underground that covers the entire Wood Element World," Meng Yifan thought, secretly alarmed.

"Little friend, I shall share my vision with you; you identify who your enemy is," the Secret Realm master said, and after he finished, Meng Yifan felt many windows appear in his mind.

The images in these windows were what every plant in the Wood Element World was sensing; high-level Demon Beasts had already evolved eyes, and the images they transmitted were very clear, just like being filmed by an ultra-high-definition camera.

Not only that, those images could also be focused, zoomed in, and zoomed out, which made Meng Yifan click his tongue in wonder.

As for those low-level Demon Beasts, their ability to perceive their surroundings was relatively much weaker; they could detect the situation around them by shaking their bodies at special frequencies to produce faint, barely audible sound waves.

The images they transmitted back were like images taken by an infrared thermal imager, appearing somewhat blurry, only able to show general outlines and energy intensity levels.

If a powerful individual appeared, the Demon Beasts would instinctively become fearful, and the images transmitted would be constantly trembling.

And those ordinary plants that had not yet evolved transmitted even blurrier images, but all plants within the Secret Realm World were very sensitive to energy fluctuations; even ordinary plants, as long as a powerful individual was near them, could mark the powerful individual's location through their root systems.

"Every plant is equivalent to a camera, providing surveillance footage for the Secret Realm master? What a miraculous method."

Meng Yifan felt as if he were sitting in a large surveillance room, with hundreds of thousands of images in front of him; these were all scenes perceived by the plants of the Wood Element World.

"This is too much." Meng Yifan scanned them at a glance, but to finish watching them all would take a long time, especially since many of them were blurry images transmitted by ordinary plants.

"I will help you filter some out first." The Secret Realm master's thoughts stirred, and those images without humans or Demon Race activity disappeared.

Not only that, the Secret Realm master also sorted the remaining images, with images containing powerful individuals placed in the front.

Even if there were no Demon Beasts near a powerful individual, the Secret Realm master could mobilize the nearest Demon Beasts to turn their direction and use their maximum ability to perceive the scene around the powerful individual.

"This is much more convenient." Meng Yifan browsed quickly and soon discovered Meng Shuangdao; in the image, Meng Shuangdao was fighting a Fifth Grade Lower Tier bear demon.

Meng Shuangdao had a Zombie Body, his strength was great, and his saber technique was also very exquisite, but he was, after all, only a Fourth Grade Lower Tier Zombie, a whole major realm lower than this bear demon, so he could only be suppressed and beaten.

This bear demon was two zhang tall, broad-shouldered and thick-waisted, with fists as large as millstones; it possessed an Earth Element Supernatural Ability, and its body was covered in a thick layer of rock armor. Meng Shuangdao's long saber, when hacking onto it, could only chip off some stone fragments and could not cause fatal damage to the bear demon at all.

"Stinking zombie, go to hell." The bear demon unleashed a Supernatural Secret Art, lifted its right leg, and stomped fiercely on the ground; in an instant, it was as if an earthquake had occurred, and the ground rose and fell.

Meng Shuangdao was like a small boat in a stormy sea, tossed and turned; just at this moment, the bear demon's millstone-sized fist smashed toward Meng Shuangdao's head.

Meng Shuangdao wanted to dodge, but a large crack suddenly opened under his feet, leaving him with nowhere to borrow force and unable to change direction. In the critical moment, he could only bring his two sabers together to take the punch head-on.

"Crack! Crack!" Both long sabers were snapped, and the bear demon's fist, its momentum undiminished, continued to roar toward Meng Shuangdao's head.

Meng Yifan saw that Meng Shuangdao was about to fall, and was greatly shocked, hurriedly saying to the Secret Realm master: "Senior, save him quickly, that zombie is my man."

The Secret Realm master smiled, waved his right hand casually, and green light flickered; strands of Wood Element energy were transmitted instantly along the underground Root Network to beneath the bear demon's feet.

"Whoosh!" A large tree as thick as two people could embrace burst out of the ground, blocking in front of Meng Shuangdao in one motion.

"What the hell is this?" The Fifth Grade Lower Tier bear demon was stunned for a moment, thinking that some Demon Beast in the surroundings wanted to stop him. Regarding this, he didn't care at all and shouted loudly: "Break for me!"

The power of this punch from the bear demon was immense; let alone a tree, even a mountain peak could be blasted apart with one punch.

"Bang!" The bear demon's fist hit the large tree, but it was like a mayfly shaking a tree; the large tree did not move a single bit, and not even the leaves shook.

Instead, a layer of green light rose on the large tree, and with a slight sway, it rebounded the bear demon back five or six steps.

"Impossible?" The bear demon's eyes were splitting, and he said in disbelief. This punch was his full-strength strike, containing his unstoppable fist intent, and its power was immense. Even a Fifth Grade Middle Tier Demon Beast would not dare to take this punch head-on, and even a Fifth Grade High Tier Demon Beast would have to retreat at least one step to receive this punch.

The large tree before him had not moved a single bit; how could this be possible? Could it be a Sixth Grade Demon Beast? Impossible, Sixth Grade is already the World Master Realm; in this broken world, how could there be a great power above the Sixth Grade.

"This is World Power; what a miraculous way of fighting. To actually mobilize the power of a world to deal with an enemy, no wonder Sixth Grade powerhouses have multiplied combat power when fighting in their own worlds, and can even fight across ranks."

Meng Yifan saw it very clearly; this large tree was a node of the underground Root Network. The bear demon appeared to have hit this large tree, but in reality, he had hit the entire network underground. Let alone that he was only a Fifth Grade Lower Tier bear demon, even if he had advanced to the Sixth Grade Lower Tier, after entering the Wood Element World, it would be difficult to shake this large tree.

Although the bear demon did not know what the large tree in front of him was, he knew he was definitely no match for the large tree, so he turned and ran.

"Please, Senior, take action and kill him," Meng Yifan said.

"As you wish." The Secret Realm master's thoughts stirred, and from the ground beneath the bear demon, more than a dozen large trees shot out simultaneously, sealing the bear demon from the front, back, left, and right.

Then these large trees, like large pythons, squeezed toward the center. The bear demon was terrified, and he stomped the ground with all his might, wanting to trigger an earthquake again to escape.

"Earth Element rules, dissipate," the Secret Realm master said.

"How could this be?" The bear demon was dumbfounded; he had used his Supernatural Secret Art, but he could no longer sense Earth Element energy, and naturally, he could not trigger an earthquake.

"What an overbearing way of fighting, to actually dissipate the Earth Element rules in a region with a single sentence; could this be the 'Word Follows the Law' of a Sixth Grade powerhouse?"

Although Meng Yifan had also barely entered the Grade 6, he had not evolved a world, nor had he seen a true Sixth Grade powerhouse take action; he would take this opportunity to observe and learn well.
