"Expl... explode?" Xiao Yaomu stammered, surprised by Gao Xin's confidence.
Ever since their encounter with the Demon Tree, they had been urgently studying the related intelligence and conducting in-depth research.
They knew that the Demon Tree, like Gao Xin, defied all odds, or perhaps was even scarier.
Now, the Demon Tree was three times the size of Gao Xin, yet he claimed he could blow up the Demon Tree directly?
"What about the Angel Envoy?" Xiao Yaomu remembered Brando's previous words to him.
Gao Xin didn't answer the question but asked back, "The initial parasite of the Demon Tree should be quite weak, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to capture it. How was it released?"
Xiao Yaomu said dourly, "I don't know, theoretically it shouldn't have been able to escape... It's probably Terral who released it."
Gao Xin stomped his foot, and a head emerged from the throne, it was Terral.
His eyes were dazed, incredibly weak, but upon seeing Xiao Yaomu, his eyes lit up, "You saved me? That's great!"
Xiao Yaomu yelled angrily, "Save you? You released the Demon Tree, why would I save you?"
"The Demon Tree devours the world, do you want Brother Kun to die?"
Terral was shocked, "What? The Demon Tree escaped? How's that possible?"
Everyone froze.
Gao Xin said, "So it wasn't you."
"Who? Who's speaking? Tai Sui? Where are you?" Terral was terrified.
He struggled laboriously, trying to free his head from the throne, but couldn't, frightened by Gao Xin's voice.
He looked around but only saw Dark Moon, Quinn, Milan, and others, not Gao Xin.
Xiao Yaomu twitched at the corner of his mouth, "Look up..."
Terral weakly lifted his head, the 'wall' next to him kept extending upwards, until his eyes met Gao Xin's gaze overlooking him from above.
"Gah!" Terral gasped but couldn't breathe in cold air, all around him was high energy, high temperature.
"You... he... how..."
Terral was stunned, the 3 trillion-ton Titan Gao Xin, his imposing presence was overwhelming.
Initially, upon seeing the wall, he hadn't thought it was Gao Xin, assuming it was the Giant Kun.
"How could... how much time has passed? What year is it now? Is the Dragon King Conference still going on?" Terral murmured, doubting what was once Canghai had changed to barren land, things were different now.
Xiao Yaomu said faintly, "Only ten days have passed..."
Terral's pupils shook. After a long silence, he said, "It wasn't me who released it, the Demon Tree really wasn't released by me, Tai Sui..."
Gao Xin calmly said, "I know, it should have been Lao Liu."
Brando's eyes were bewildered, then confused and bitter.
Although the research institute was managed by Terral, the Six Gods naturally had the authority to open it.
Xiao Yaomu was shocked, "What? Brother Liu released it? Why?"
Gao Xin said solemnly, "If I can't even handle the Demon Tree, then there's no point in fighting the Angel Envoy! We might as well surrender early."
As he spoke, his speed increased sharply, ultimately taking everyone to superdimension.
Except for Milan, and the Two Gods, the rest were dizzy, nauseated.
Once they recovered, they found themselves at a huge clearing.
The dark-colored giant tree, flowing with crimson light, rooted in the flesh, visibly growing.
"Zahwah zahwah..."
Sensing Gao Xin's approach, the Demon Tree bristled like goosebumps, twitching, stinging like lightning.
"Electromagnetic Body?"
Gao Xin's eyes were sharp, "You're learning a bit slow."
With that, Gao Xin's body was completely covered in a pale exoskeleton, heavy and imposing, with bone spurs like fangs, and a faceplate like Shura, returning to his formerly simple Silver White Asura form.
But his strength had long surpassed the past, like heaven and earth.
"Wham!"
From his right hand burst a bone blade, immediately compressed, transformed into a Mirror Blade.
This was a partial application of transforming one's body into a blade.
For this, Gao Xin directly transformed his trillion-ton Taixui Body into this blade, then threw the blade backwards...
Thus, not only did he not close the gap, he actively widened it.
Now, without considering the blade, the Demon Tree's size was five times his!
Indeed, the Demon Tree couldn't bear it, whenever they met they were destined to clash.
Eventually, life and death must be decided, Gao Xin intentionally weakened himself, giving the Demon Tree every reason to attack.
And as long as it strikes first, it presents an opportunity.
Gao Xin's current Dark Logic was stronger than the Demon Tree's, and he still had Divinity.
The one who strikes first will be seen through first, the one who strikes first will expose a flaw.
Although Gao Xin could only predict the Demon Tree's actions for one second, that second was enough to decide many things.
Gao Xin could even say, "When you come to attack me, in that moment, you've already lost."
Yes, the confrontation between two top Dark Logicists was this exaggerated.
"Zahwah zahwah!"
A cosmic-like storm of high energy carrying thousands of sword lights smashed its way in.
The Demon Tree used High Energy Strike.
This was undeniable, after all, the higher its own power, the greater the suction of Devil Worship High Energy.
Using High Energy Strike, Gao Xin couldn't break its moves, while it could break Gao Xin's.
The Demon Tree could even perform extra operations, such as releasing a force to sever the connection with the mirror bone blade Gao Xin had thrown earlier.
However, this operation wasted energy.
Gao Xin didn't bother picking up the blade but charged forward, once again transforming his body into a blade.
This time, it was his entire body, 2 trillion tons of material, transforming into a blade.
"Soldier Master·Slaying Myself Blade!"
This move was developed by Gao Xin to deal with the Angel Envoy, a self-sacrificing attack, also a thousandfold Super Boundary.
Adding Atomic Breath, it generally burst forth with 30 trillion tons of TNT equivalent.
This power, earth-shattering, its might was still highly focused.
"Buzz!" The Demon Tree was not willing to back down, its energy at this moment was five times Gao Xin's, though a part was wasted on the initially thrown blade, still it had quadruple suppression.
Even containing operations, midway it suddenly executed Three Escapes.
It turned out it wasn't just learning Electromagnetic Body but had also mastered the Three Escapes.
At this moment abruptly utilizing them, it vowed to sweep away Gao Xin.
"You shouldn't have hidden your moves..."
Gao Xin's lips curled up, as he had anticipated this.
Before the Slaying Myself Blade could cut the Demon Tree, an invisible sharp aura had already pierced the tree ahead of the blade's tip, unleashing a massive surge of heart power.
The Demon Tree's Three Escapes form failed to materialize!
This was a state that required a process to initiate, and at this moment Gao Xin interrupted it!
It would have been better if the Demon Tree hadn't used this move; its power was already enough to severely damage Gao Xin. Yet, it activated and was interrupted.
This greatly affected the situation, causing an anomaly in the high-energy storm, which was instantly disrupted by the Devil Worship High Energy, slightly weaker than Gao Xin's own.
Everything happened in an instant; in the eyes of the others, Gao Xin simply threw his knife, and then both he and the Demon Tree exerted their full power, colliding together.
The colossal impact echoed into the distance, crashing dozens of kilometers away into the meat wall of the Giant Kun, still containing astonishing destructive power, eradicating a massive flesh mountain and blood sea.
"Great slash!" Milan exclaimed in admiration.
Though she and the others didn't quite understand, they knew the Demon Tree had suffered a significant loss.
Gao Xin faced an opponent five times his own size, not only breaking its move but also slicing the Demon Tree with one blow.
It's evident that their consciousnesses aren't on the same level.
"Blade, come!"
Gao Xin didn't need to retrieve the blade himself; he had teammates.
He didn't even need to speak; everyone already understood, launching the discarded bone blade back to Gao Xin.
Gao Xin's combo never ceased; after a storm of slashes, he suddenly withdrew from his Blade Transformation state, transforming into an Eight-Armed Asura.
Without turning his head, he smoothly caught the blade sent by the others.
"Swish, swish, swish!" The fierce light flashed as a large portion of the Demon Tree's limbs vanished.
The Demon Tree made one wrong step, leading to another and another, retreating at every stage.
Most people couldn't keep up with Gao Xin, only providing their power from afar.
Only Milan, Quinn, Caesar, Dark Moon, Xia Heng, and Feng Wuji kept up, synchronizing the seven of them.
Despite their power being insignificant compared to the Demon Tree, they significantly raised Gao Xin's operational limit; managing a team of people definitely enhanced the operation compared to running solo.
"You can't win against me, my heart demon!"
"There used to be no one who knew me better than you; now, no one knows you better than I do!"
"I've seen through your Dark Blade Technique!"
Gao Xin took one step ahead, staying steps ahead.
At this moment, only simple and unadorned attacks remained—slash!
Dark Logic Second Rank, plus the enhancement of forty-nine-fold divine consciousness.
If he doesn't release high energy, he won't be suppressed by the Devil Worship High Energy.
Yet the Demon Tree's high-energy techniques can be broken by him.
Simple and unpretentious strikes, under the bearing of Gao Xin's current Titan Body, were earth-shattering.
Gao Xin's eight arms danced wildly, bone blade slashing crazily, completely suppressing the Demon Tree, which constantly lost material.
Sawdust scattered, blood splattered.
The Demon Tree's offensive limbs, whenever they sprouted, were cut to pieces.
The Dark Logic fighting style, although powerful, why can't others use it? Because inherently, it's a negative-return affair!
Simply put, it's too much of a gamble, with too many complex prerequisites, so much so it's almost absurd.
Under the same conditions, the result would be vastly different, only controllable by a Dark Logicist.
How many times has Gao Xin gambled with his life? Despite surviving every time, stepping wrong once would mean falling into an abyss.
This style of fighting ensures that a wrong bet leads to a gross losing situation.
Now, he and the Demon Tree are both Dark Logic experts.
With the ultimate clash of Dark Blade Techniques, both took the most high-stakes shot; one would certainly face utter defeat!
That's why Gao Xin told Xiao Yaomu: it's not about stopping; it's about beating!
Because he wanted to accomplish everything in one go, only two outcomes: 'either I beat you, or you beat me, let's see who dies first.'
Gao Xin didn't mention the other possibility because he was confident he would win.
Ultimately, the one in collapse was indeed the Demon Tree.
If the opponent were anyone else, perhaps the Demon Tree would have a chance, but against Gao Xin, there was none.
Hope for a comeback was zero.
Gao Xin essentially bet that his all-in strike would break the Demon Tree's move!
He even weakened himself on purpose to attract the Demon Tree to go all-in with him, raising the stakes.
Everyone involved was a gambler; Gao Xin sacrificed one piece as a respectful gesture.
If Gao Xin had made an error, or if the Demon Tree behaved unexpectedly, the result would be the complete opposite, potentially dying worse than the Demon Tree.
But there was no 'if'... and he had teammates.
If he were broken, then under the seven synchronized efforts, everyone would instantly realize his situation and take remedial action.
Though difficult, Gao Xin would still have a narrow chance for a second reversal!
This was his back path that others couldn't see; he had people behind him providing a second chance.
In contrast, Demon Nature, totally alone, utterly solitary.
One defeat meant total ruin, with no one left to help bear even a little.
Maybe this was bullying, but Gao Xin didn't care about that, and it was precisely the human nature that could defeat demon nature.
"Pfft!"
Once Gao Xin established his advantage, he immediately mounted the Demon Tree, pummeling it with his eight arms.
In reality, this beating was an act of devouring.
With every blow, the Demon Tree lost a huge chunk of material, not disintegrated or vanished but absorbed into Gao Xin.
They were originally one, capable of mutual assimilation.
At this moment, with Gao Xin's stronger heart power and complete physical dominance, naturally, he assimilated the Demon Tree.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
Gao Xin launched punch after punch, elbowing, kneeing, side-kicking, headbutting...
He incorporated various techniques from Milan, interspersed with Seahorse's Meteor Fist; in short, he fought as he pleased, whatever felt natural.
He had reached a state of doing as he wished, fighting however he liked. Meanwhile, for the Demon Tree, nothing worked.
With each blow, Gao Xin infused innumerable materials.
It was destined there could be only one victor.
And the loser's painstakingly nurtured massive Titan Body served only as a bridal gown for the victor.
