Any World Master with a title is not an ordinary World Master; each possesses extraordinary qualities.
World Master Azure Wood first became known to people over two million years ago during World Master Molten Rock's famous battle, where he directly repelled an Immortal!
It was World Master Azure Wood who initiated that battle, which also marked his rise to fame. The treasure he obtained attracted the Immortal to seize it, and he successfully escaped after a brief confrontation with the Immortal.
Of course, if World Master Molten Rock had not arrived in time to stop that Immortal, he would have been killed by the Immortal burning his Immortal Divine Power.
Being able to briefly engage with an Immortal and escape proves that his strength and Law comprehension are extremely close to an Immortal, placing him at the top tier among World Masters.
Due to the Spirit Weapon he uses, which is the top-tier fifth-order Spirit Weapon Green Vine Pillar, second only to the nine Divine Weapons of a Controller, and his comprehension of the Wood Origin Law, he is known as World Master Azure Wood!
"World Master Azure Wood was already known as a top-tier World Master whose Law comprehension was extremely close to an Immortal over two million years ago. I'm no match for him, and his current Law comprehension has likely advanced further!"
Daniel's face turned grim as he thought, "Damn it! Why didn't I recognize him as World Master Azure Wood sooner!"
If he had recognized that the other party was the renowned World Master Azure Wood earlier, he would have brought out his trump card long ago. Why would he be wasting time with him here?
Actually, it wasn't Daniel's fault for not recognizing Hoka as World Master Azure Wood, because most World Masters had only heard his name but never seen him.
Perhaps some well-informed World Masters knew that World Master Azure Wood was reclusive and disliked communicating with others, but how would they know his habit of only speaking more to dead people?
Moreover, Hoka had employed some tricks, using a decorative headband to cover the Wood Origin Law acknowledgment mark, which prevented Daniel from realizing he was a World Master who had gained Law acknowledgment.
"Oh, you know me?" Hoka asked.
Daniel adjusted his emotions and forced a smile, "It's not hard to guess. There aren't many World Masters who can call World Master Molten Rock by name, and with the green hair, it could only be you, World Master Azure Wood."
"E9-IN3," Hoka said indifferently, "This model of laser Spear needs 3 seconds to charge and fire. 3 seconds is enough time for me to kill you!"
Boom!
As Hoka spoke, Daniel shot up into the sky, breaking through the room's ceiling, intending to fly into the air.
Thud!
He successfully left the room, but as soon as he flew upwards, he crashed into a wall formed by green vines, bouncing directly back.
The space within a hundred meters around this room was enveloped by countless tiny green vines, with endless green light shining down from the gaps where the vines intertwined.
Daniel, forced back, stood in the air. He felt a strong suppression; his speed and strength were significantly affected after being illuminated by the green light.
Holding a black E9 Level laser Spear, he looked up at the sky covered by green vines, his heart sinking. "This is the Green Vine Pillar's Fifth Move — Vine World!"
Originally, he wanted to fly into the sky, then take out an E-level spaceship from his world ring to leave and escape to other high-level Universe Countries to rebuild his Family, but he didn't expect to be tricked by World Master Azure Wood.
The reason the other party was chatting with him was just to set up the Vine World. The Law fluctuations he sensed earlier were actually generated when he unleashed the Green Vine Pillar.
Now with the Green Vine Pillar's Fifth Move, Vine World, combined with World Master Azure Wood's powerful World Projection, it directly crippled a significant portion of him as a Warrior. He was already no match, and now he's even less of a match!
Boom!
More vines shimmering with green light pierced through the roof. Two intertwined and rotating vines, seemingly growing continuously, extended towards Daniel in the sky.
"Green Vine Pillar's Second Move — Endless Vine!" Daniel retreated and dodged, his heart filled with shock. "He can actually use two Green Vine Pillars simultaneously!"
Being able to unleash the Green Vine Pillar's Fifth Move, Vine World, already makes him a top-tier expert among World Masters. But World Master Azure Wood, while unleashing Vine World, still had enough power to control a second Green Vine Pillar to unleash Endless Vine. How could this not shock him?
Daniel's Spiritual Force moved, and a fifth-order Origin battle saber appeared in his right hand. He vigorously slashed at the continuously extending green vines.
Thud!
A metallic collision sound rang out. A few green light fragments fell from the slashed vines, and the fallen fragments quickly merged back into the green light shining through the gaps in the sky vines.
"What!" Daniel's pupils contracted slightly, finding it hard to believe. "I actually can't cut the Endless Vine!"
As an old World Master whose lifespan was nearing its end, he had not been without encounters with World Master Level Spiritual Masters who used the Green Vine Pillar, but this was his first time being unable to cut the Endless Vine!
Creak!
Failing to cut the Endless Vine, Daniel was instantly entangled by the green vines. The powerful contracting force of the vines squeezed his body, making his bones creak.
As Daniel was bound by the vines, the tiny green vines covering the sky contracted, quickly forming a towering giant pillar above him, composed of countless green vines mixed and intertwined with the Wood Origin Law!
Green Vine Pillar's Sixth Move, Pillar Reaching Heaven and Earth!
Seeing the greenish-blue towering giant pillar form, despair appeared in Daniel's eyes.
Pillar Reaching Heaven and Earth—this is a Move that only World Masters extremely close to the Immortal level can unleash. He couldn't block this Move!
In despair, he let out a final roar, "World Master Azure Wood!"
Boom!
The towering giant pillar descended. Even though Daniel, a World Master Level ninth-order expert, struggled frantically, he was still crushed to death by the powerful Law might!
The Ancestor of the Delarosa Family, World Master Level ninth-order expert Daniel Delarosa, died!
And as Daniel died, Hoka slowly rose from the hole in the room's roof, retrieving his dropped E9 Level laser Spear and world ring, among other relics.
"I told you, three seconds is enough to kill you."
When the E9 Level laser Spear was retrieved by Hoka's Spiritual Force, the charging progress displayed on the Spear body was 93%!
...
A certain manor on the Delarosa Family's ancestral planet.
Enio Delarosa was drinking alone in a room. Ever since the capture mission failed, he had been stripped of his Family inheritance rights. What made him even more upset was that he couldn't interfere with any of the Family's industries.
And this order was issued by the Ancestor; no one dared to defy it, not even him, a Domain Master!
Enio poured a glass of wine and was about to drink it when he sensed a powerful and terrifying aura coming from behind him, making his body become incredibly stiff!
"World Master Level expert!"
Feeling the powerful and terrifying aura, he slowly turned around and saw a tall, robust One-Eyed Man in black metal battle armor standing on the balcony.
The One-Eyed Man's voice came, "Enio?"
"I am." Enio nodded slightly, "I wonder, great..."
Before Enio could finish speaking, Sweit pulled out a fifth-order Origin battle axe from his world ring, flashed to the former, and brought the axe down!
Boom!
The magnificent room shattered, and the ground caved in, causing violent tremors!
Amidst a pile of ruins, Sweit pulled out his battle axe and soared into the sky, and Enio, who was struck, was naturally dead beyond dead.
...
In another manor, Duya flew in the air, looking at the body of another Domain Master of the Delarosa Family in the sunken ruins below. After confirming his death, he left.
...
At the same time, all core Universe Level members of the Delarosa Family were also attacked by the Molten Rock Emperor's personal guard team, and all of them died!
Thus, the once glorious Delarosa Family, excluding members who were away on business, had all its other core members dead. The remaining Family members were unable to protect the Family's immense wealth and were quickly devoured by various major forces!
