Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

Chapter 189: “Th-this is all my fault...”

Yang Wei observed as all the vines rushed towards him, attempting to use their Core Formation aura to suppress his cultivation base while they swallowed him whole.

However, without even trying, Yang Wei was able to withstand even the aura of the Spirit Ascension cultivator!

He dispersed his blood sword and then brought his palms together, closing his eyes.

I just have to summon the full force of Senior Tortoise's shell's Qi...

The vines continued their rapid approach, slicing through the air.

Yet, the moment Yang Wei's eyes reopened, they glowed with a white-hot intensity, and behind him manifested the Golden Turtle Body. Its mere presence alone shook the entire grove, while its powerful aura generated a shockwave that effortlessly blasted away the vines.

ROOOOOOOAR!

This beastly roar of the Golden Turtle Body startled Tianyi, making him almost fall off Yang Wei's head.

Mu Lin, observing from below, could sense the earth-rending aura emanating from the muscular, humanoid turtle, standing at a towering height of 250 meters.

"Wow..."

Her brown eyes widened in disbelief at the astonishing sight before her.

It's far more stronger than the last time he used it.

She could still remember this massive energy avatar from the heavenly dao ball game.

Yang Wei's feet gently touched the ground, and he was mirrored by his Golden Turtle Body, which landed with less elegance. The moment its feet made contact with the ground, the earth rumbled so intensely that Mu Lin was thrown off her feet and fell onto her butt.

"Ow!" she uttered.

More vines sped towards Yang Wei and his avatar like arrows.

Yang Wei assumed the Tortoise Warding Stance and thrust his right fist forward as if punching the air. The Golden Turtle Body mirrored his movement, unleashing a punch that sent a wave of destructive Qi tearing apart the ground, obliterating several harmless trees, and blasting away the attacking limbs of the ominous overcultivated plant life.

Perfect!

Soon, Yang Wei noticed that the plant life was regenerating at a slightly slower pace this time.

Truly, the Qi from Xuanwu's shell was indeed powerful and intensely corrosive. If it could diminish the regeneration speed of a plant life at the Core Formation realm, then mastering control over it would bring more combat advantages against cultivators of a higher realm.

"Aren't you going to help me up?!" Mu Lin exclaimed, rubbing her rear end where she'd landed.

Yang Wei snapped out of his thoughts and quickly dispersed his Golden Turtle Body, extending a hand to help her up. "Sorry about that," he said calmly. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, just a minor stumble..." Mu Lin brushed off the fall nonchalantly. "A cultivator like me won't be phased by something so trivial," she confidently assured him.

"Mhm, sure."

Tianyi, who remained comfortably relaxed on Yang Wei's head, let out a "Rawr!" Even in the dire situation, it remained very calm; perhaps it knew that if Yang Wei wasn't simply using this overgrown tree monster to test out his abilities, then he would most definitely annihilate it with a simple breath.

It didn't take long for Mu Lin to notice the cute golden dragon perched on her dearest's head. "What's that?" she asked, pointing at Yang Wei's head.

Yang Wei grinned. "Oh, that's just my little friend. Don't mind him."

Mu Lin, taking the hint, didn't press further. Instead, she turned her attention back to the tree monster, its gigantic roots sprouting from the temple's vast insides. "So, what caused this?" she asked rather calmly.

Yang Wei turned to face Mu Lin, placing his hands on his waist as he explained, "Eh, the tree must've absorbed too much spiritual energy, and now it's out of control."

"Huh?"

"Well, the tree needs constant spiritual energy if it's going to supply me with the ingredients I need to refine my pill."

Mu Lin folded her arms, eyebrows furrowed—she clearly didn't look happy, not one bit. "Wait, so this is the kind of danger you deal with when refining pills?" She gently placed a hand on his cheek, her expression partly worried. "If that's the case, I'd rather you not refine pills that summon bloodthirsty Core Formation plant monsters!"

Yang Wei smiled warmly, appreciating her concern. "I know you're worried, but my pill refinement isn't to blame for this. It's actually Si--"

Before he could say more, a thick thorny root, as wide as a tree trunk, lunged towards Mu Lin with alarming speed, aiming to tear her apart. Acting swiftly, Yang Wei pulled her close with his left arm and summoned the massive right hand of the Golden Turtle Body!

The root slammed against the potent aura of the huge golden palm.

Yang Wei glared at the tree which seemed to be growing larger and larger in size. "Would you, a lowly overgrown weed, dare disturb me while I'm talking to my woman?" he said.

The moment Mu Lin heard Yang Wei, her once shocked expression vanished. She closed her eyes and smiled, snuggling even closer to him as if desiring him to wrap around her like a blanket.

In the sizable energy hand, Yang Wei built up concentrated dragon vein Qi.

Dragon's Breath Palm!

The energy released from this massive palm was nothing short of explosive—it blasted out like a devastating wave of energy that fractured the huge grotesque root to pieces. If Mu Lin hadn't been tightly holding onto Yang Wei, she too would've been blown away by the force of the blast.

Dispersing the energy hand, Yang Wei turned to Mu Lin. "Are you alright?"

Lost in the moment, Mu Lin didn't hear him. She hugged Yang Wei even closer, enjoying their closeness.

"Uh, Mu Lin?" Yang Wei called out to her again.

Mu Lin sighed contentedly. "Can't we just stay like this a little longer~?" Instead of answering, she hugged him tighter, her soft body pressing against his muscular yet fairly slender frame.

Tianyi, perched on Yang Wei's head, growled a bit as he looked at Mu Lin, appearing somewhat furious, a sentiment even Yang Wei could sense. It seemed he didn't like how close Mu Lin was to Yang Wei, and the sight was enough to prompt him to stand on all fours atop Yang Wei's head, barking very loudly at Mu Lin.

Growing annoyed, Mu Lin lifted her head to see the angry dragon. "Wei, control your noisy dog already."

"He's not a dog, he's a dragon," Yang Wei corrected her.

Proudly, the angry Tianyi nodded at being called a dragon.

Mu Lin rolled her eyes. "As if I care."

Finally, the full form of the monstrous tree had manifested. It was a gigantic tree that stretched high up into the sky, actually dwarfing the huge temple from which it emerged!

The roots were enormous and muscular, bursting out of the ground as if unable to be contained.

The main tree emitted an aura almost akin to the Nascent Soul realm, and many of its branches and limbs began growing spikes, as did numerous smaller trees in the disorganized jungle forming around it. The tree appeared to be consuming the entire grove to make it its own!

As the towering 500-meter-tall tree came into view, Mu Lin's quarrel with Tianyi immediately paused. Her eyes widened in shock as she beheld the monstrous tree, which blocked out the sun and cast a dark shadow over the entire grove. "This is bad..." Mu Lin managed to say, her voice trembling.

If compared, the tree dwarfed even Yang Wei's Golden Turtle Body, more precisely, it was two times its size!

The commotion caused by the overcultivated plant life had attracted too much attention, drawing the disciples of Green Sanctuary Peak to the scene. Some arrived and were either stunned into collapse or too terrified to stand, dropping to their knees.

"We're all dead!"

"How do we fight such a monstrous thing?! The aura it's releasing alone is crushing my soul!"

"It's almost comparable to our Peak Chief!"

Mu Lin turned to Yang Wei urgently. "We need to run as far as we can!"

Confused, Tianyi and Yang Wei looked at Mu Lin. To them, they'd seen no reason to run.

"Why?" Yang Wei asked.

Mu Lin pointed upwards at the colossal tree, covering almost the entire sky. "Hello? That thing's almost at Nascent Soul realm. I don't know why it's cultivating so fast, but it's adaptive and dangerous. We need to leave before it's too late!"

Despite her serious tone, Yang Wei chuckled calmly. "There's no point in getting worked up over something so insignificant." He brushed it off, walking forward with his hands clasped behind his back. "I would've liked to test out some cultivation powers a bit more, but it seems that time's passed."

My mana core seems to have stabilized...

He extended his hand, slowly generating scarlet energy in his palm.

However, before Yang Wei could take any action against the tree, it began to wither gradually, surprising him.

What? Yang Wei thought.

Then, he observed as the entire tree compressed into itself and was effortlessly absorbed into the palm of Guo Xiaomei.

In an instant, the colossal tree vanished, shocking all the present disciples. They looked up to see Guo Xiaomei gracefully hovering high in the air with her hands behind her back.

"LOOK, IT'S THE PEAK CHIEF!"

"SHE SAVED US!" Experience new stories with M-V-L

"AS ALWAYS, SHE'S OUR LIGHT THAT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS!"

"WHAT WOULD WE DO WITHOUT HER?!"

Guo Xiaomei held a serious expression on the outside. On the inside however...

Th-this is all my fault...
