From a distant direction invisible to everyone, Ye Li quickly climbed upwards. Some spiritual warriors in other places also thought of the same idea and approached in a roundabout way.
However, most people who choose this method are those who think they are not strong enough. Their speed is not as fast as Ye Li. If nothing unexpected happened to the people on the main trunk, they would have no chance of coming into contact with the soul seal.
Ye Li's height growth rate was even faster than the first person who rushed towards the main trunk. His height at this moment had surpassed everyone else.
However, after he reached the top of his tree trunk, he still had to find a way to get closer to the main trunk, so in terms of overall speed, he could barely keep up with the first person who rushed out.
Zeng Deshun on this side was still chasing madly, but there was always some distance between him and the opponent and it was difficult to get close.
If his speed cannot exceed that of the opponent, it is basically impossible for him to catch up with the opponent.
Different from the last time at the location of the water soul seal, this time the wood soul seal is at the very top of the tree canopy, basically adjacent to the tree canopy.
The spiritual warrior at the Fu Zun realm who was running in the front could absorb the soul seal immediately as long as he could touch it. Unlike last time, he needed to let the soul seal slowly descend from mid-air.
After that, he moved a certain distance in the tree canopy, jumped off the branches from the other direction, and tried to find a way to get down to the ground. Zeng Deshun could only follow him and eat dust the whole time.
It seemed that the situation had completely turned to the opponent's side, but Zeng Deshun's face did not show any tension. He just silently maintained full speed and followed behind the opponent without falling behind even a little bit.
Soon, Ye Li jumped onto the topmost branch of his tree trunk. Scanning the branches in front of him, he immediately found the closest path to the main trunk.
He was surrounded by the spiritual energy of wind and thunder, and he was so light and fast that even the sound of the wind could hardly be heard when he ran.
Zeng Deshun and the other man were so focused on the pursuit that they didn't notice Ye Li at all. They just kept running wildly, and it didn't take long for them to reach the same height as Ye Li.
At this time, Ye Li was getting closer and closer to the main trunk, and was about to reach the top of it.
At this moment, Zeng Deshun suddenly launched an attack on Fu Zun in front of him.
His attack was not based on any talisman or spell, nor did he use any long-range talisman weapon, but rather a soul-moving talisman.
After a gray talisman light flashed in Zeng Deshun's hand, a gray soul force gathered and turned into a sharp arrow that shot towards the talisman master in front.
The sharp arrow instantly crossed the distance between the two people and penetrated into the other's body.
Although the opponent felt an abnormal power fluctuation behind him, he did not realize that the attack launched by Zeng Deshun was a soul-walking talisman. He just activated the talisman and spiritual armor.
Although the distance between the two of them was not too close, so that ordinary talismans and magic weapons would have difficulty in forming an effective attack, it was not too far either.
Zeng Deshun's soul-moving talisman could still reach the man in front, although in Ye Li's opinion, the power of Zeng Deshun's attack would be greatly reduced due to the distance.
However, Zeng Deshun is, after all, a master at the Fuhuang realm, while his opponent is only at the Fuzun realm. There is a huge gap in realm between the two.
With such a huge gap, the effectiveness of Zeng Deshun's soul-walking talisman will be extremely strong.
When the soul-moving arrow pierced into the body of the man in front and shot directly into his soul, the other party suddenly let out a scream, and fell down while shaking all over.
The spiritual warrior at the Fu Zun realm had never imagined that there would be such an attack that could directly harm the soul. He became a little dazed due to the severe pain.
Unable to hold on to the tree trunk to climb, he fell towards Zeng Deshun. A trace of cruelty flashed across Zeng Deshun's face, and he casually threw out a sword-shaped talisman and slashed it at the falling body of the other party.
A golden sword light flashed, and the body of the fallen Fu Zun spiritual warrior, along with his spiritual armor, instantly broke into two halves.
His howl of soul-pain came to an abrupt end, and the two halves of his body fell down and hit the ground heavily.
After killing the other person, Zeng Deshun finally showed a smug smile on his face and began to climb towards the treetops.
In his opinion, everyone is now under him and no one can compete with him anymore.
He glanced at the other competitors hanging far below him, laughed twice, then raised his head and continued to climb higher.
At this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly swept a figure that jumped up from the branch on the side and instantly appeared at the position where the Fu Zun realm spiritual warrior had just climbed, and rushed to the top of the tree at a faster speed than the man just now. Zeng Deshun felt as if a breath was forced into his chest, and his chest was about to explode.
He had already seen that the person running in front of him, wrapped in the power of wind and thunder, was Ye Li, whom he wanted to kill as soon as possible.
Ye Li's speed was faster than the previous person. After all, it was almost impossible to run on the tree trunk. Everyone could only use their hands and feet to jump on the branches and bumps.
Therefore, the help that the Wind Casting Secret Technique gave to Ye Li was even greater than that of the Thunder Casting Secret Technique. His body became lighter under the wrapping of the wind force, and from a distance he looked like he was floating on a tree trunk.
"Ye Li... you damn bastard, I'm going to kill you!!!"
Zeng Deshun roared after coming to his senses, and with murderous intent surging in his body, he pressed towards Ye Li.
However, the murderous aura could not kill Ye Li, nor would it have any effect on Ye Li. Ye Li was constantly widening the distance between him and Zeng Deshun at an increasingly faster speed.
Seeing this situation, Zeng Deshun's three corpse gods really jumped up and down, and evil fire spewed out of his eyes.
He no longer cared about anything else. The talisman in his hand shone, and another soul-moving talisman was released from his body. The soul arrow just now shot towards Ye Li.
Ye Li had already sensed the fluctuation of soul power, and a strange rune flashed through his mind.
This rune is exactly the strange rune mark obtained before, which can protect the power of the soul.
When Ye Li used his spiritual power to outline its shape, the rune in Ye Li's soul suddenly shone brightly. A mysterious and powerful force directly enveloped Ye Li's soul and protected it tightly.
After Zeng Deshun's soul-moving arrow hit Ye Li's body, the power of the soul pierced towards Ye Li's soul.
However, the soul attacks that had been invincible before were like a stream of water blocked by a gate. They could not touch Ye Li's soul at all. They were all blocked outside Ye Li's soul and could not hurt him at all.
