Chapter 116: World-Ending Crisis

Looking at Kong Xinyue, Zhao Hao remembered that he only had less than four days left.

If he didn’t find a way for Kong Xinyue to cultivate before transmigrating, he would break his promise as her Master.

Since the simulation had lasted until midnight yesterday, the simulator’s cooldown wasn’t up yet.

Zhao Hao took Kong Xinyue for breakfast.

Even if a powerhouse like Zhao Hao did not eat for the rest of his life, just breathing in and out of Spiritual Qi would be enough to sustain him. However, when he thought about the fact that he was going to transmigrate in a few days, he felt like eating one meal per day, which was extremely rare.

While they were eating, Zhao Hao’s phone rang. When he took it out and saw that it was Bai Bing, Zhao Hao could not help but frown.

Now that the Spiritual Qi had recovered, strange evolutions were happening all over the country. Fortunately, they had made preparations in advance, and there were many squads. This allowed the situation in China to be relatively stable.

Zhao Hao was rather lazy and did not have much time. If Kong Qingshan’s Confucian treasure had not tempted him, he would not have accepted becoming the Vice-Captain of the Supernatural Special Forces.

Zhao Hao calmly answered the call.

Before Zhao Hao could speak, Bai Bing’s anxious voice came from the other end. “Chief Zhao, a willow tree that is thousands of meters long has appeared in Russia, and it is still growing.

“It grows a few meters per minute. Its location is not far from our northeast. They have already used dozens of nukes, but that willow tree is not dead. Instead, it is absorbing energy and growing rapidly. It has already been reported to the alliance, requesting assistance from all countries.”

Zhao Hao was astonished when he heard this. He was extremely clear about the power of the nuke. Emperor Shi had only managed to block ten of them with the Imperial Jade Seal back then.

Now, not only was a willow tree fine, but it could even absorb the nuke’s energy.

Zhao Hao’s eyes were filled with excitement when he thought about such a powerful ability. If it was a cultivation talent…

Although he was a little excited, Zhao Hao still calmly asked Bai Bing, “What are the higher-ups’ thoughts?”

With Zhao Hao’s current status, he naturally wouldn’t change his expression even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.

“This concerns the safety of the northeast region. The higher-ups also want to take care of this willow tree. After all, it grows too fast. No one knows how many meters it can grow.”

After listening to Bai Bing’s explanation, Zhao Hao said, “Don’t move for now. I’ll go and take a look myself. When the time comes, we can resolve it. If we can’t resolve it, we’ll think of other ways.”

Bai Bing’s side was powerless. No one understood Zhao Hao’s strength and his growth speed better than Bai Bing.

Bai Bing had personally witnessed Zhao Hao, who she had casually taken under her wing, become an existence even stronger than the strongest person in the SSF, Ma Zhuisheng.

It could be said that in Bai Bing’s eyes, Zhao Hao was now the strongest person in China.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Hao no longer had the mood to eat. He stood up and walked out.

Kong Xinyue wanted to follow him to take a look, but she had heard about how terrifying the willow tree was. After hesitating for a while, Zhao Hao’s figure disappeared.

…

Although Zhao Hao’s cultivation was still a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, his true combat strength was something that even peak-stage Soul Formation experts could not handle.

There was nothing he could do. There were simply too many powerful talents. If it were not for the fact that Zhao Hao had not cultivated any killing moves, he might have already leaped a few realms to kill someone.

Zhao Hao’s speed was very fast. In less than an hour, he had flown out of the border of China. Just as he entered Russia’s border, he saw a huge tree that pierced through the clouds.

Zhao Hao couldn’t help but exclaim, “Holy sh*t! Who gave the intel report to Bai Bing? Wasn’t it a few thousand meters long? This length is probably 100,000 meters!”

Zhao Hao was at least 1,000 kilometers away from the huge willow tree. However, he could clearly see its huge body. It was really hard to imagine how such a willow tree could grow so big.

Fortunately, Zhao Hao had the Illusion-Breaking Divine Eyes, which was a great scouting tool. He could check the information and not be confused.

Zhao Hao used the divine Illusion-Breaking Divine Eyes on the tree. The willow tree’s status appeared in Zhao Hao’s eyes.

Name: Liu Qing

Race: Plant Clan

Cultivation: Peak-Stage Dimension Sundering

Description: Originally, it was just an ordinary willow tree. Due to the recovery of Spiritual Qi, it turned into a daemon. Due to an accident, its roots reached the planet’s core, and it obtained a miraculous ability. It can devour everything on the planet to increase its strength and suck the entire planet dry.

Zhao Hao’s brows were tightly knitted together. This willow tree was definitely a big problem.

It wasn’t just a problem for Russia alone. It was a problem for all the living beings on the entire planet.

Others would recover their Spiritual Qi and cultivate properly. Yet, this tree could devour the entire planet…

Moreover, this willow tree’s growth rate was truly astonishing. It was believed that it wouldn’t be long before it broke through to the Tribulation Transcending realm. At that time, with the current battle prowess of the planet, they would have to sacrifice Zhao Hao’s body if they wanted to kill this willow tree.

‘I guess I have to sacrifice my body to see if I can restore some of the Lunar Goddess’ strength to the goddess.’

However, even if the Lunar Goddess recovered her strength, why should she help to kill the willow tree?

“It’s not easy. With my strength, I can’t kill it at all.”

Zhao Hao did not continue to get too close. It was best for a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator to stay away from a Dimension Sundering expert.

If the willow tree targeted him, his life would be in danger…

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Hao had no other choice. Thus, he directly dialed Ma Zhuisheng’s number.

Soon, Ma Zhuisheng picked up the phone. Zhao Hao shared all the information about the willow tree and asked him to report it immediately. It would be best if he could mobilize the strongest force to kill the willow tree. Otherwise, the entire planet would probably be destroyed in a few days.

Ma Zhuisheng was also sweating profusely. Although what Zhao Hao said was very strange and unbelievable, Ma Zhuisheng knew Zhao Hao very well. Through several collaborations, he had come to appreciate Zhao Hao’s eyesight.

Therefore, Ma Zhuisheng directly reported it to the higher-ups.

20 minutes later, all the major sects and gangs in China received the order to mobilize all their resources to go to Russia and assist Zhao Hao in killing the willow tree.

At the same time, the people in the alliance also received this piece of news. All of them paid great attention to it. After all, this was considered a world-ending crisis. Even if they didn’t believe it, they had to send people to verify it. They all sent a large number of experts to Russia to investigate.

If there really was a world-ending crisis, they had to kill that willow tree.
