Chapter 512: The Gu Clan Expert’s Arrival

Inside the Tree Spirit's space.

As they watched the Heavenly Court people enjoy the benefits, the Gu Clan, Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe, and the rest of the teams couldn't help but feel envious.

These Bodhisattva Seeds had the miraculous effect of increasing the success rate of breaking into the Half-Saint realm. They could even be used to refine Bodhisattva Pills, an eighth-tier pill that could attract the nine-colored Pill Lightning. This was enough to drive countless experts in the peak Dou Venerate realm crazy. If these Bodhisattva Seeds were given to them, perhaps someone could truly break through to the Half-Saint realm with their help.

But most people lacked the courage to ask Xiao Ming for them.

There was, however, no shortage of death-courting people in this world, particularly those who had already dared to enter the Ancient Wasteland Region.

Seeing that Xiao Ming had a more friendly attitude towards everyone other than the Hun Clan, some people began to entertain some thoughts.

I'm not going to ask you directly for the seeds, but I can ask how you got them, right? It wouldn't hurt to ask, would it?

Even if they didn't get an answer, it wouldn't cost them anything to try.

As the leader of a major righteous faction, Xiao Ming couldn't possibly resort to violence over a few questions, could he?

With this thought in mind, a member of an unknown team said in a humble tone.

"Ha ha, these Hun Clan pests deserve to be severely punished. They tricked us earlier, but we couldn't do anything about it due to our lack of strength. Fortunately, we have Alliance Leader Xiao here. You are truly worthy of your position as the leader of the Heavenly Court. Your actions are fair and just. The way you exterminated them is very pleasing to the heart!"

"Moreover, Alliance Leader Xiao is truly considerate of his subordinates, giving away holy treasures like the Bodhisattva Seeds. You are indeed an inspiration to us. We don't dare hope for these Bodhisattva Seeds, but could we ask Alliance Leader Xiao for some guidance on the mysteries of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree?"

As these words were spoken, everyone looked at the person speaking in astonishment.

Three people were standing there, with the leader being a rather thin figure. While his face bore a humble and friendly smile, his cold and sinister nature couldn't be completely concealed.

Behind him was an older man and what appeared to be a young man. Although the young man appeared in his prime, his eyes betrayed his age as an old monster whose age was no less than the other two.

The three of them, except for the young-looking man, exuded an aura that was quite chilling, and the atmosphere around them was quite eerie.

Their strength was among the best in the group, with the leader having almost reached the Half-Saint realm. It wasn't surprising that they dared to take the risk of questioning Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming glanced at them. Considering the circumstances, they still dared to question him. He somewhat admired the courage of the trio.

After assessing the trio, Xiao Ming did not immediately answer their question. Instead, he asked, "You have the guts; tell me your names."

"Uh, this..."

The three hesitated, surprised that Xiao Ming wanted to know the names of little shrimps like them. They hesitated because they knew their reputation wasn't exactly stellar, even though they hadn't crossed paths with the Heavenly Court until now.

Seeing their hesitation, Xiao Ming turned to an expert from the Heavenly Court.

After everyone had tried, Xiao Ming shook his head and was about to ask the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree to send these people out.

Just as he was about to speak, Gu Qing Yang took a step forward and said, "Alliance Leader Xiao, Qing Yang has a question. Would you be willing to enlighten me?"

"Oh? What is your question, General Qing Yang?"

Xiao Ming looked at him, wondering what this second Gu Clan genius, who had been relatively quiet since they met, wanted to know.

"We have an elder in the Gu Clan who entered the Ancient Wasteland Region with us, but some time ago, her whereabouts became unknown. I wonder if Alliance Leader Xiao has noticed anything unusual?"

"I haven't noticed anything."

"In that case, I would like to thank Alliance Leader Xiao for answering my question," Gu Qing Yang said, a little disappointed. He then bowed and returned to his group.

"Alright, you can leave now!" Xiao Ming announced.

......

The Ancient Wasteland Region, beneath the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree.

A group of several dozen people appeared out of nowhere. These people were no ordinary folks; each of them was a powerhouse in the Dou Venerate realm, all being great experts in the Central Plains.

These were the people who had been expelled from the Tree Spirit Space by Xiao Ming's words, including Gu Xun'er and Gu Qing Yang.

In this case, apart from the Heavenly Court members, no one had received any Bodhisattva Seeds. They looked at the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree emitting waves of clear air with a pang of regret in their hearts.

However, no one dared to provoke the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree or the Heavenly Court.

'Perhaps we can join the Heavenly Court to gain access to those three Bodhisattva Seeds in the Merit Hall...'

With this in mind, they quickly surrounded the members of the Heavenly Court and eagerly asked them how they could join.

As Gu Qing Yang watched the lively scene beside them, he sighed and then turned to Gu Xun'er.

"Xun'er, now that Elder Gu Yun has disappeared, we should report this to the clan."

In addition to this specially assigned Dou Saint, Gu Xun'er also had a spatial jade token that could contact the Dou Saints within the clan. She even had a spatial jade token to contact Gu Yuan, the Clan Head.

"Hm."

Gu Xun'er nodded and then shattered one of the spatial jade tokens with a flick of her hand.

Soon after, a pitch-black spatial channel opened up in the middle of the sky, and an enormous amount of saintly power filled the air. A white-robed figure slowly stepped out.
