Jacob continued his flight as he got closer and closer to the colossal tree, and he could finally see its wide and thick branches spreading throughout the sky. Each leaf was around ten meters in size. Furthermore, the closer he gets, the more excited his mind is for the challenge in front of him, while his rationality makes him feel the opposite. Now, Jacob started to experience the actual effect of fighting the giant spirit as it was getting hard for him to keep his calm mind in front of a powerful opponent. 'At least this proved this thing is a unique rank existence on my level or even stronger than me. But how am I supposed to fight it?' Jacob grimaced as he looked at the colossal existence before him with no visible weakness. Even the fire spread by the mysterious person won't be able to put a dent in it. At this moment, Jacob suddenly heard a faint commotion some distance behind, and the moment he lowered his head, he witnessed a few giant trees blasted apart, revealing a large group of people. He saw every time a tree moved, they would quickly deal with it by powerful magic, and they were literally carving their path towards the colossal tree within the deadly sea of trees. Although Jacob wasn't worried that this group could do anything to the monstrous existence before him, this still didn't mean he wasn't in a hurry to end all of this to move on toward the final beast. There was still a chance someone else would be fighting the last beast right now and might clear it at any second. So, wasting even a second was unacceptable. Especially when there was a chance someone would go back and report his achievement, and then people would start pouring in to stop him at any cost. Just this group down below has more than a hundred people, and they were all quite powerful, far more powerful than Andrew's group, and they might stand a chance against the Fiend Yeti or Deathstalker. This gave Jacob the urgency to deal with the thing before him and stop moving forward to fight it head-on. Suddenly, he turned around and started to fly backward and higher at the full speed of the disc, with coldness creeping in his heart.
'Why the hell I'm taking such a risk when I can just be done with it without taking any risk? Could it be this fighting giant spirit is changing my psyche? Turning me into more reckless…' Just thinking about it made Jacob feel chills in his spine while a sense of helplessness washed over him. He knew it was too late to regret, and this was far from his control. All he could do was to keep his mind in check, and he didn't believe this aspect could not be under his control as it was 'his' aspect!
So, he fought every urge he had to turn around and explore the ghastly opponent behind him as he was getting higher and further from the tree until he was tens of miles away and high up in the sky. The gloomy gray sky of the trial plain seemed to be endlessly huge as there was no sign of its ending. But at some point, Jacob started to feel strange pressure and low air, but he continued to go up high. At this moment, he could almost see the entire forest and the colossal tree in the center of it while he noticed there were walls of mists on the four sides where the forest ends. 'This should be high enough…' Jacob thought as he was still completely fine and his mana wasn't even half deployed, and this was the case for only the water magic core. The next moment, a space ring appeared on his empty finger, and a 40-feet long and 10-feet wide blue missile appeared with some section of it glowing in neon blue liquid, and a small command panel was sect in the middle. Jacob called this Blue X-Sun Missile, and it was ten times stronger than the white sun missile that blew off the Epic star void server and covered almost half of the Epic plains into nuclear clouds. This was the strongest missile Jacob could create with all the available resources in his possession, and he knew this thing could destroy an entire continent. But the thing was, he didn't care because this wasn't a continent. Furthermore, Jacob didn't find any other way to blow off that tree, which was a unique rank existence, and the atomic grenades were lacking, and neither did he have any more white sun missiles. Jacob activated the small panel, and he set it up on the timer because he didn't think it was necessary to use its rocket thruster and launch it when he was floating right above the target.
Once the timer was set to five minutes, Jacob threw it like a spear toward the crown of a colossal tree with his mighty strength. This was another reason he didn't need to launch it. The Blue X-Sun Missile whistled through the air at terrible speed while approaching the colossal tree. At the same time, Jacob moved even higher and further away since he wasn't sure just how much aftershock he would experience. Still, he was confident in getting out of this without much injury with his new body and magic. He was 80% sure that this blast could not hurt him from this kind of distance. On the ground, Gunnar led a massive group of experts towards the tree as they were still over seventy miles away. Still, they could already see the colossal tree branches starting to cast a shadow above them as they were all recovering their mana. Walking beside Gunnar, the enthralling giant, Charlotte's eyes flashed with apprehension as she said, "Dad, do you really think we can take on that thing?" Even the people following them had the same question, and they were not as optimistic about this as Gunnar. "Tell me, do you think I'm not as competent as that Faceless Ancient?" Gunnar questioned sternly. This sudden, irrelevant question stumped Charlotte, and then she replied with narrowed eyes, "If you want an honest answer, I think you're no match for him regarding cognitive prowess. He's like the President regarding cognitive abilities, but he's just as powerful. Which is a deadly combination!" Gunnar's eyes flashed with coldness while the others listening to them felt cold sweat breaking because only the fearless daughter of the Alliance Chairman could talk to him so disrespectfully. "Aren't you being too tactless after meeting that coward?" Gunnar narrowed his eyes dangerously. Charlotte pouted sweetly, "Don't get angry now. You were the one who asked for my opinion." Looking at his daughter acting cutely in front of him, he felt gratified, but his stony face remained the same, "Hmph, I'm not someone who doesn't admit his shortcomings. But despite all that, we need to clear at least one shackle no matter the cost. Even if I have to lay my life, I will kill this thing." Charlotte was startled seeing Gunnar's grim seriousness, "Just why is it so important?" Gunnar's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness as he replied, "Sigh… you won't understand, nor can I tell you before you become the Chairman yourself. Just make sure you keep yourself safe if something…" Before he could continue, a blinding light suddenly bloomed in the forest's depths; it enveloped everyone!
