At this moment, Zhang Hao already had a plan. This Tree Demon King's combat value should be Martial King First Heaven. Although his combat power couldn't defeat a Martial King First Heaven Martial Warrior in a one-on-one fight, if he wanted to run, it wouldn't be easy for this Tree Demon King to catch him. What was most important for Zhang Hao now was to buy time for Yun Qiuyu, Ying Da, and the others.
"Qiu Yu, Dou Bi, Ying Da, you guys go first? We'll meet up at the predetermined location," Zhang Hao said seriously.
The three also knew that Zhang Hao had a certain chance of survival facing the Tree Demon King alone, but if he stayed with them, Zhang Hao would be in danger instead. Therefore, the three immediately flew away.
Night.
"Stay here!"
In the Tree Demon King's view, Yun Qiuyu, Ying Da, and Dou Bi were all food in its mouth. How could it be willing to let them escape? It stretched out a giant hand and grabbed towards the three.
"Your opponent is me!"
Zhang Hao's Snow Drinking Saber in his hand fiercely slashed down onto the Tree Demon King's body.
"Die!"
Zhang Hao slashed down with one strike.
"Peach Blossom!"
Zhang Hao roared. Layers of saber light instantly slashed out. The layers of saber light formed a cage in the void, trapping the tree demon.
"Get lost!"
The tree demon roared. The hand formed from its branch blasted out. Hand after hand slammed onto the cage, instantly shattering the surrounding cages.
"Devour them!"
Hands formed from the Tree Demon King's branches swept towards Zhang Hao from all directions, covering the sky and earth. It was as if the entire void was filled with the hands of this Tree Demon King.
Although Zhang Hao was prepared, his expression was still very serious when he saw this scene. He knew that the Tree Demon King had long since gained sentience, and its branches, twigs, and roots could all become part of its body.
"Treading Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms."
Zhang Hao's saber and legs attacked simultaneously, turning into a huge top in the void. It spun, transforming into streaks of saber light that severed all the tentacles reaching out from around it.
The battle between the two sides was incredibly fierce. Zhang Hao's pressure grew greater and greater. Although he was currently at the Great Martial Master Seventh Level cultivation, the gap compared to the Tree Demon King was still too large. The Tree Demon King's combat power was equivalent to the strength of a Martial King First Heaven. Although it was only Martial King First Heaven, the pressure it exerted on Zhang Hao was undoubtedly immense. Several times, the Tree Demon King's attacks swept him up, and Zhang Hao finally broke free by expending all his strength.
Zhang Hao was still gritting his teeth and persisting, because he was buying time for Yun Qiuyu, Ying Da, and the others. The longer he bought time, the greater their chances of escaping would be.
However, Zhang Hao felt the pressure from facing the Tree Demon King growing stronger. The Tree Demon King's branches were continuously compressing his space. Zhang Hao felt that all his space was getting smaller and smaller.
"No, I have to go!"
The Tree Demon King seemed to have also noticed Zhang Hao's intention. It sneered and said, "Want to leave? It's not that easy. Stay here obediently and be this king's food!"
The Tree Demon King roared and clawed towards Zhang Hao's body. The terrifying giant hand, carrying immense power, grabbed towards Zhang Hao, covering the sky and earth.
Instantly, Zhang Hao felt as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on him, making his entire body tremble with fear.
"Limitless Rampage!"
"Astonishing Cold Glimpse!"
"Ice Seal Three Feet!"
"Red Apricot in Snow!"
"Peach Blossom!"
"Treading Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms!"
"Cold Blade Ice Heart!"
Zhang Hao instantly unleashed the Aohan Six Styles saber techniques.
Endless saber light rampaged in the void. Strike after strike landed on the Tree Demon King's hand. This claw of the Tree Demon King carried incredibly terrifying power. It shattered Zhang Hao's saber light. The final force sent Zhang Hao flying back. Zhang Hao flew back as if soaring through clouds and mist. Landing on the ground, Zhang Hao felt as if his entire body was about to fall apart.
The tentacles that had been severed by Zhang Hao's saber techniques strangely grew back on the Tree Demon King's body. Seeing this, Zhang Hao almost cursed. Damn, it's so powerful, what the hell can I do?!
Holy mother! This Tree Demon King is really terrifying. It's really not easy to blow it up. Zhang Hao temporarily abandoned the idea of immediately destroying it.
"Go!"
Zhang Hao used the Swallow Shadow Drift movement technique and swept towards the distance.
"Roar!"
How could the Tree Demon King let Zhang Hao escape from its grasp just like that? A sharp howl sounded, as if calling for something.
Zhang Hao's expression changed after hearing this sound. He knew that this Tree Demon King was calling for its subordinates.
Damn!
As expected, huge tree demons from all directions in the surrounding jungle pounced towards him. There were hundreds of these tree demons, a dense mass, almost blocking all the areas around Zhang Hao.
"Damn it! Those who block me die!"
Zhang Hao roared angrily. The saber in his hand swept out in all directions. Saber light crisscrossed, killing all the tree demons that approached him. These ordinary tree demons were naturally no match for Zhang Hao; they couldn't even withstand a single strike from him.
With a single strike, those tree demons instantly turned to ash and vanished.
"Ding dong!"
"Ding dong!"
...
The System's frantic notification sounds rang out.
The bad news was, although these tree demons couldn't cause substantial damage to Zhang Hao, they could slow him down, allowing the Tree Demon King to catch up. Originally, the Tree Demon King couldn't match Zhang Hao's speed, but with the obstruction from these tree demons, it still caught up.
"Damn!"
Zhang Hao pondered for a moment, took out the Houyi Bow, drew the bow, and nocked an arrow, aiming at the Tree Demon King.
"Three Star Arrow!"
Three fiery red arrow shadows shot out, blasting towards the Tree Demon King's body.
The Tree Demon King seemed quite afraid of Zhang Hao's arrow. A blood-red shield erupted from its body, blocking in front of it. The Three Star Arrow exploded on that shield, causing no damage to the Tree Demon King.
Despite this, Zhang Hao could tell that the Tree Demon King seemed very wary of his arrows. Every time Zhang Hao drew his bow and shot an arrow, the Tree Demon King would stop its pursuit.
Although he couldn't think of anything specific for the moment, this was exactly what Zhang Hao wanted. It allowed Zhang Hao to gradually escape the Tree Demon King's line of sight.
After who knows how long, Zhang Hao finally stopped. Although he was a Martial Warrior, after an hour of rushing, he was still a bit tired.
Looking at the endless jungle, according to Dou Bi, it would take at least three days to get out of this endless forest. Within these three days, the Tree Demon King could catch up at any time. After all, this was the Tree Demon King's territory, and escaping from here wouldn't be easy.
"Damn, you want to eat me? I want to blow you up! Let's see who's afraid of whom!"
As soon as Zhang Hao thought of the Tree Demon King, this golden BOSS, he couldn't hold back. How could such a BOSS not be blown up?!
