A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 620 Fusion of Will

"Come, offer your soul, let it become nourishment for the mother tree!"

Finrod, whose form was completely distorted, roared, showing no trace of the once elegant and handsome elf he once was.

"You're wrong, it should be that He becomes my nourishment!"

Jiang Shuzhou sneered, then his body became ethereal and disappeared before Finrod's eyes.

"You can't escape!"

Finrod roared, his mental energy locked onto Jiang Shuzhou, as if he was simply afraid that Jiang Shuzhou would escape.

"Coward, do you dare face me?"

Jiang Shuzhou remained silent, as he was currently on his floating city, or rather, beside the Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood.

"It's time."

Looking at that towering tree, which was in no way inferior to the Mother Tree of the Abyss, Jiang Shuzhou sighed.

"I never expected that I would still have to take a gamble in the end."

Jiang Shuzhou originally thought he should be able to easily take down the Abyss Mother Tree, even at the cost of damaging the floating city.

However, this actually became somewhat difficult after the will of the abyss intervened.

As a result, Jiang Shuzhou had no choice but to resort to even more dangerous forces.

If Finrod could draw upon the power of the Abyss through the Abyss Mother Tree, then Jiang Shuzhou could do it even better, and perhaps even more effectively.

The only downside is that one's rationality is easily shattered.

This is something Jiang Shuzhou absolutely cannot allow, after all, reason is the cornerstone of a mage, and losing reason means losing everything.

However, this is not absolute.

The abyss does not directly destroy reason, but rather causes people to revert to their primal state and become chaotic.

In that case, the only option is to use the power of order to restrain them.

And Jiang Shuzhou just happened to have that.

However, Jiang Shuzhou had never really wanted to use this power. The most crucial point was that once it was used, it would be like being stained with a mark that couldn't be washed off.

This is the bait of the abyss; once used, it's impossible to quit.

This is the abyss's open conspiracy.

Now that things have come to this point, Jiang Shuzhou naturally doesn't care about these things anymore. Once he absorbs the Abyss Mother Tree, everything will be fine. It's just a little bit of Abyss pollution, isn't it?

Jiang Shuzhou had long disliked the Abyss Will. Once he became successful, he would seize the Abyss and it would belong to him.

By then, this pollution will be no longer a problem.

And if it doesn't succeed...

Then Jiang Shuzhou would have no future.

Now, it's time to take the gamble.

Of course, Jiang Shuzhou could also turn around and run away.

But this is not what Jiang Shuzhou wants. This is an opportunity, a chance to break through the shackles. If he succeeds, he can become a pioneer in opening up new paths.

Besides, where could we possibly go if we just walked?

Honestly, would anyone be content to remain stagnant here?

Jiang Shuzhou was naturally unwilling. He had planned for this day for so long, even wiping out an entire race, and now he was to be allowed to escape?

This is impossible!

Moreover, Jiang Shuzhou had already made preparations; this was something he had thought about beforehand.

"Coward, just stay inside and don't come out! I'll smash this shell through myself!"

Outside the floating city, Finrod continued to roar.

Jiang Shuzhou ignored this and simply ordered Laps to block the attack.

He himself closed his eyes and entered into meditation.

Jiang Shuzhou sensed the abyss and felt its immense power, as well as the terrifying power it contained.

He needs to adjust his mindset.

"bump!"

Finrod's countless eyes emitted a fierce light, followed by several beams of light flying towards the Ideal City.

It was then blocked by the shield of Ideal City.

"Ha, so you're still not running away?"

With a cold laugh, Finrod continued preparing for the attack.

Jiang Shuzhou, who was supposed to come out, did not react at all.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Finrod was puzzled, but his instincts told him that something was wrong, a big problem!

But his confused mind prevented him from thinking of anything.

Perhaps, it's just fear?

Once the thought crossed his mind, Finrod could no longer suppress it.

That's right, I'm just scared!

Instantly, Finrod smiled smugly.

My opponent was scared, I won!

Thinking this, Finrod couldn't help but smile.

win!

But soon, he stopped laughing.

The reason is simple: Jiang Shuzhou succeeded.

A terrifying aura emanated from the floating city, followed by an extremely strong fluctuation.

"What is that...?"

Finrod seemed to have witnessed something unbelievable, and he was completely distraught.

Thump, thump.

A heartbeat sounded, followed by the sound of something unfolding.

"You've been pretty arrogant while I've been going through this transformation!"

Jiang Shuzhou's voice rang out.

Looking in the direction of the sound, Finrod was instantly alarmed.

At this moment, Jiang Shuzhou was enormous, but overall he did not have a particularly strange appearance. However, he inexplicably had countless tree-like branches growing on his body, and even these branches were laden with fruit.

It seems that there is no threat at all.

But for some reason, Finrod's instincts were frantically alarming, as if some intense threat was approaching.

"die!"

A true warrior is one who, even knowing he is about to die, still dares to fight.

Of course, this also means that he is not far from death.

Finrod's sudden attack did not cause any harm to Jiang Shuzhou.

Come and don't come, it's indecent.

Jiang Shuzhou naturally had to retaliate.

"Your attacks are too weak, try this instead!"

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Shuzhou unleashed a burst of intense light that transformed into a sharp blade, piercing towards Finrod.
