Chapter 1045: Gathering Spirits
"Ah..."
Chen Ruyu looked around, but didn't know where the cold murderous intent came from. She only saw shadowy figures in the distance. Although those people also coveted the spirit of the ancient tree, they didn't seem to be people with murderous intent.
The real murderous intent was undoubtedly the Beigong family hiding in the dark at this moment, the blue-clothed old man who was previously injured by Xiao Meng'er, and several sect leaders under him.
The blue-clothed old man had restrained his murderous intent, but several sect leaders next to him accidentally revealed his murderous intent, so that Xiao Chen and the other two noticed it.
"Elder..."
At this time, the sect leaders of those sects secretly condensed their true essence. As long as the quasi-saint of the Beigong family gave an order, they would definitely launch a fatal attack on Xiao Chen and the other two. ❆
But at this moment, the blue-clothed old man seemed very hesitant, as if he was worried about something, and now was a good time to get rid of these three people.
Needless to say, Xiao Chen is the most difficult and unstable enemy, and Xiao Meng'er and Chen Yufeng are the most outstanding people in the Xiao family and the Chen family respectively. If these two people can be eliminated, it will undoubtedly cause a huge blow to the two families...
At this moment, the murderous intent in the eyes of the old man in green clothes is even heavier. If these three people can be eliminated, it will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to the Beigong family...
But at this moment, he also has to consider the latter problem. There are many people present today. If he kills these three people, the three families will know about it in the future, and they will definitely not let it go.
Especially Xiao Meng'er, who is also a disciple of Donghua Immortal Lord. So now it seems that he will not only kill these three people, but also kill everyone present today...
In this way, no one will know what happened in Wuyou Valley today.
"Elder..."
A head of the sect next to him trembled slightly. He seemed to see the murderous intent of the old man in green clothes at this time. Not only did he want to kill Xiao Meng'er and the other two, but he also wanted to kill everyone here today to silence them.
The killing intent was getting heavier and heavier. Xiao Meng'er and the other two people in the tree heart had clearly felt it, but their profound strength was absorbed by the spirit of the ancient tree. How could they get away? If the other party attacked at this time, the three of them might not have the slightest power to resist.
At this moment, a deep voice suddenly resounded in the vicinity, "Kill the three of us first, then kill everyone present today, and finally seize the spirit of the ancient tree. Your Excellency's plan is good, so why not give it a try."
Such a voice immediately changed the faces of everyone present, and the person who spoke was not Chen Yufeng or Xiao Meng'er, but Xiao Chen. He just used his internal force to transmit the voice so that everyone around could hear it.
"Someone... wants to kill people here?"
Such a sentence was indeed very effective. The cultivators who were still watching, at this moment, heard that someone wanted to kill people to silence them, and immediately focused their minds and became alert.
The old man in green from the Beigong family immediately had more concerns in his heart. Not to mention what would happen if Xiao Chen and the other two counterattacked before they died, there were so many people here, all on alert now. If one of them was let go, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Elder... what's going on now?"
The face of a head of the sect next to him was covered in cold sweat. If they only killed Xiao Chen and the other three, they still had the courage, but if they wanted to kill everyone here, they really didn't have the courage. Once people outside knew about it, they would die without a burial place.
The old man in green also knew that this move was very dangerous. If he was not careful, he would be doomed. He could only continue to observe...
Time passed little by little, and it was already afternoon. The number of people coming here increased by more than twice.
But under the shade of branches and leaves, people were swaying everywhere. I don't know how many people have come here, and Xiao Chen, Xiao Meng'er and Chen Yufeng are still deadlocked at the heart of the tree. It's not that the three of them are unwilling to give up the spirit of the ancient tree, but no one can move now.
"Brother Chen!"
At this moment, a clear voice of a young man suddenly came from below, and two figures suddenly appeared between the leaves below, a young man in white and a young girl in green. They were Xiao Ling'er and Leng Baihu.
"Squeak... Squeak!" The snow fox found the two of them at some point and actually followed them all the way.
"Sister..."
Obviously at this moment, Xiao Ling'er could see that the three of them must have fallen into trouble and could not get out now, and she could also feel the power of the spiritual power.
The two of them moved and flew over there. Looking at the spiritual power flowing in the heart of the tree, Leng Baihu was slightly shocked. Now he is no longer an ordinary mortal boy, so he naturally knows what the spiritual power in front of him is.
"White Fox..."
Xiao Chen's eyebrows were slightly locked, and he was trying his best to resist the suction of the tree's heart. At this time, he saw Leng Baihu coming over, and finally thought of something.
Leng Baihu is a mortal body, but he is different from ordinary mortals. Maybe he can be fearless of the suction of the tree's heart and introduce the spirit of the ancient tree into his body.
"Brother Chen!"
Leng Baihu flew over with Qinggong, and just when he wanted to reach out to pull Xiao Chen, the other party suddenly called him "Don't get close to me!"
Hearing this, Leng Baihu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped back a few steps. His face was slightly pale, and because he had just rushed up all the way, a cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he murmured, "What, what happened..."
Obviously, if Leng Baihu touched him now, he would definitely be sucked by the spirit of the ancient tree and could not get away.
At this moment, Xiao Chen had already thought of something, looked at him, and said with concentration, "Do you still remember the breathing method I taught you?"
"Yes! Of course!"
Leng Baihu nodded vigorously. At the beginning, he was not very familiar with this cultivation method, but now, although he is not proficient in it, he is already familiar with it.
On the other side, Xiao Meng'er saw what Xiao Chen wanted to do and raised her eyebrows and said, "He is a mortal. If you let him absorb the spirit of this ancient tree, it will undoubtedly destroy both his body and soul."
"The spirit of the ancient tree..."
After hearing Xiao Meng'er's words, Leng Baihu's face was slightly startled, and he looked at the spiritual vortex in the heart of the tree. Finally, he turned back and looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Brother Chen, I'm not afraid, I'll do it right now." past!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he actually flew towards the heart of the tree. All the cultivators in the distance were shocked. Even with their high cultivation level, they did not dare to approach easily. This little mortal boy, seriously Don't even care about your life?
"ah!"
When he fell into the heart of the tree, Leng Baihu suddenly felt a tearing pain all over his body, as if his body was about to be torn to pieces by that powerful force. Even on his skin, there was faint leakage. Come with blood.
Seeing this scene, the cultivators in the distance were all shocked. In just a few moments, this young man would be shattered into pieces and his body and soul would be destroyed!
"Chen, Brother Chen...I, I'm fine!"
Leng Baihu gritted his teeth and resisted the indescribable pain in his body, just like he did when he broke the formation outside, without fear of life or death.
Xiao Chen also gradually frowned. All the opportunities at the moment were on Leng Baihu. At this moment, he no longer hesitated. With a push of his profound energy, strong winds surged around him. The spirit of the ancient tree immediately moved toward Leng Baihu. The white fox gathered inside.
"ah--"
Leng Baihu made a cry of pain. It was extremely dangerous for a mortal to endure such overwhelming spiritual power. If his will was slightly weaker, not only would his body and spirit be destroyed, but also Xiao Chen's. There will also be collateral damage.
"Leng Baihu..."
Outside, Xiao Ling'er was also stunned. She could feel that Leng Baihu was a mortal, but what he was enduring at this time was a pain that even many cultivators could not bear.
"ah--"
The sound of pain became louder and louder, and the white clothes worn by Leng Baihu were gradually stained red by the blood seeping out of his body. There was even blood seeping out of his eyes, and he looked extremely terrifying.
Seeing the spirit of the ancient tree being gathered away by this young man, the expression on Xiao Meng'er's face changed slightly, and she looked at Xiao Chen and said, "If you don't stop, he will explode and die! By then, your soul will also be severely damaged..."
"I, I'm fine...Brother Chen, I'm fine...ah——"
Leng Baihu looked like he was in extreme pain, but he was still holding on. The spiritual power around him was constantly gathering into his body. It was hard for people in the distance to imagine that he was clearly a mortal boy, but he could withstand such a powerful force. spiritual power!
