Chapter 1216: I Knew Something Was Wrong

"Heh..." The King was laughed out of anger. He swung the Grim Reaper scythe and rushed up, swinging it down.

"Wait a minute..." Na Gu Si Tai shouted hurriedly, but the King ignored it, and with one swing, he cut the Tree Shepherd it transformed into into two halves.

Na Gu Si Tai hurriedly acted with its "head" separated. The two halves of the torso scattered left and right, growing rapidly while flying and shouting: "I said split half, you didn't agree, you said how much can be discussed..."

This might be the moment Na Gu Si Tai spoke the fastest in its life, but it was useless. The King first cut its other half of the torso into seventeen or eighteen pieces, then caught up with the other half and also cut it into seventeen or eighteen pieces.

For plants, such as sweet potatoes, when sowing, the roots and stems must be cut into seventeen or eighteen pieces and buried in the ground, so cutting into pieces is not fatal. As long as it's not burned into ashes all at once like the Star of the Pale God, it can sprout and grow again through various methods.

However, just as it wanted to continue acting with its "head" separated, it discovered that the aura of death was rapidly eroding its torso. Let alone growing, all the pieces were gradually losing their vitality and constantly withering.

Na Gu Si Tai tried to project more life force from its true body to promote the growth of the pieces, but projecting little couldn't keep up with the speed of withering, and projecting much, as soon as some new branches grew, they were cut off by the King's scythe. Finally, it could only watch helplessly as all the pieces withered into dead wood without life.

Withered into this state, except for Ang, no one could make it return to life.

The King carried the Grim Reaper scythe, floated in front of Ao Jia Er, and stared at him silently.

Ao Jia Er was very sensible. When the King was cutting the tree just now, he didn't move at all. Now being stared at, he had to show an awkward but polite smile.

A bud point sprouted on Ao Jia Er's body again. This time it was also sensible and didn't dare to grow too big, stopping when it grew to the size of a palm. Looking at the King, it said with a complex expression: "I remembered why I established a spiritual lock contract with you back then. You suppress me."

The growth of the God Tree of Ten Thousand Worlds required life force, but the aura of death specifically suppressed life. Wherever the soil passed, except for grave grass, nothing else could grow.

When the God Tree of Ten Thousand Worlds was still young, encountering the chaotic skeleton King of Feilie, it was indeed very easy to be suppressed.

"Hmph, didn't you bypass it now? A mere spiritual lock contract, how could it lock you?" Speaking of this, the King's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he remembered something.

Na Gu Si Tai was in no mood to dwell on this, and instead asked: "I, how much to split?"

The King thought for a while and said embarrassedly: "One-tenth? No, no, too much. You only forced it to reveal its true body. Without you, I could also force it to reveal its form. One-twentieth."

"No, at least one-fifth," Na Gu Si Tai said.

"Are you dreaming? The fertilizer you applied yesterday expired, causing you to have hallucinations? You didn't exert any effort and dare to ask for one-fifth?" The King scolded angrily.

Na Gu Si Tai was stunned. Was he scolding it? This scolding... so... so unique. The fertilizer expired? Did it expire? No, right? Where does fertilizer expire? Uh, no, where do I still need to apply fertilizer?

This reaction made the King feel embarrassed. The dignified King of all undead in the void suddenly started scolding people, not like his style. It was all the fault of that horse: "It's all that horse's fault, bringing me bad. It's okay, it's okay, one-tenth. If you want it, take it; if not, forget it."

After careful consideration, Na Gu Si Tai helplessly accepted this ratio.

"Fine, you can split it now. Only allowed to take one-tenth, not more," the King said.

The bud seedling detached from Ao Jia Er's body and floated forward slowly. The further it floated, the more leaves it had, and the larger they grew, because the surface area of the leaves kept increasing, and a large amount of light and heat shone on it, so it grew faster.

Ao Jia Er finally could let out a long sigh of relief. Na Gu Si Tai was stuck on him, equivalent to him bearing the King's might. Too much pressure.

Didn't expect these big shots to bargain, and it was all emotion without any skill, worse than the goblin merchants on the street. However, they were splitting a Star God's true body, and deciding the ownership of the Star God in this way was truly too dramatic.

Na Gu Si Tai grew to a certain extent, and the huge leaf crown completely blocked one side of the Star God. Only then did Na Gu Si Tai start to extend its roots. These roots were like countless tentacles, slowly extending towards the Star God's true body.

The closer to the surface of the Star God, the stronger the light and heat. Soon, the tips of the roots were scorched and on fire. However, in the scorched places, new roots continued to extend, turning black, hard, and tough. After repeating this, the roots finally landed on the surface of the Star God, and then slowly took root on it.

"Good fellow, impressive," the King couldn't help but praise. Taking root on the surface of a Star God?

This situation had exceeded his cognition. The surface temperature of the Star God was estimated to be several thousand degrees. His chaotic black crystal body could withstand this heat. If it were a mourning body, it might have already melted. Could this tree's roots also withstand it?

As the roots pierced in, Na Gu Si Tai grew even faster, growing a huge and thick vine. One end of the vine took root on the Star God, and the other end probed into the void, slowly blooming with flowers.

After these flowers bloomed, light balls the size of fingers emerged from them, floated towards the void in front, and finally gathered into a ball.

Just like this, a steady stream of Star God energy was sucked up and turned into small light balls, gathering into a large light ball, just like the legendary eucalyptus tree, the earth water pump. The Star God's true body was visibly thinner.

The Monarch watched silently without speaking. He had a feeling that things weren't over yet, because Anthony and the others hadn't given him any signal. That dead charlatan was probably holding back some mischief, or perhaps he had made some discovery.

Just like this, time passed day by day, and the Star God's true body visibly thinned by a circle, shrinking by about one-tenth. These energies were transferred to the void, gathering into another sphere.

After completing the split, Na Gu Si Tai kept its promise and retracted the roots stuck on the Star God. The vine slowly retracted, detached from the surface of the Star God, and then said: "One-tenth, I take..."

Just as it said this, a cold snort suddenly sounded in the void: "Hmph!"

Na Gu Si Tai was startled, and then saw the light ball gathered by one-tenth of the power transferred from the Star God's true body explode suddenly. Violent shockwaves and flame flows swept in all directions.

Na Gu Si Tai bore the brunt, directly blown apart by the shockwave. The broken vines were impacted by the flame flow, rapidly scorched yellow, turned black, carbonized, and dissolved, not even leaving any residue.

The King, who had been prepared, pressed one hand on Ao Jia Er's body, pressed him into the space crack, and sent him away.

At the same time, he blocked the other hand in front of him, muttering: "I knew something was wrong. Na Gu Si Tai could bypass the spiritual lock contract, couldn't a dignified Star God bypass the oath signed with the Star Descendants?" ===== CHAPTER 1217 =====
