Chapter 514: Capturing

So the previous Bodhisattva Seeds were only meant to purify the lingering resentment within the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, not the evil tree spirit itself.

When Xiao Ming saw the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree about to leave, a thought flashed through his mind.

Wasn't it the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree seedling that had drawn them both out in the first place?

The evil tree spirit, now separated from the main body of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, most likely coveted the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree seedling. Perhaps they could use the seedling to lure it out.

Originally, Xiao Ming intended to plant the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree in the outside world once this matter was settled. Even though the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree seedling was small, it still had some effect on speeding up cultivation. Therefore, it would be a hidden danger not to deal with the evil spirit of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree.

The Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, not the sharpest tool in the shed, hadn't thought of this possibility. It immediately agreed, overjoyed.

The result was the source of the strange fluctuation that Gu Xun'er and the others had felt earlier.

As Xiao Ming had expected, the evil tree spirit had indeed been lured out.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com

However, there was one thing he couldn't help but think about.

This evil tree spirit was truly the split of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree; its intelligence was so lacking that it appeared right in front of the already recovered Bodhisattva Ancient Tree...

The Bodhisattva Ancient Tree appeared to have sensed Xiao Ming's thoughts and swayed its leaves in apparent indignation, making rustling sounds in the space.

As Xiao Ming and the girls observed, things outside were taking a rather sinister turn.

...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Two figures flashed across the vast wilderness at lightning-like speed, and with their movements came waves of astonishing energy that spread around them.

The previously undamaged land crumbled inch by inch, cracks appearing all over the place.

Gu Xun'er and the others had retreated far away. They couldn't intervene when two Dou Saint powerhouses clashed. The shockwaves alone made their hair stand on end.

Elder Tong Xuan faced a strange skinny figure with an ominous aura in front of the ancient tree. He was somewhat out of breath at this point.

Beside her, Zi Yan held the Bodhisattva Heart that Xiao Ming had given her. She stared at it, tempted to swallow it, but resisted the urge. She was planning to take it back to reward her people.

When she heard Qing Lin's question, she glanced at the ongoing battle outside and mumbled, "It looks like that old fellow is about to be beaten to death. He's not faring too well..."

"Cough, let's leave this matter to Senior. After all, it's the Senior's 'family matter'. It's probably best if we don't get involved."

In reality, Xiao Ming believed that the evil tree spirit, no matter what, had originated from the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree. There was a chance that it might have some powerful moves that it hadn't used yet, and if he intervened, things could easily go south. So he preferred to let the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree handle it on its own.

With that, Xiao Ming turned his gaze to the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree.

The thirty-meter-tall Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, verdant and jade-like, swayed its canopy in response to Xiao Ming's gaze, making a rustling sound as its leaves brushed against each other.

Outside, the colossal Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, stretching thousands of meters in height, emitted an immense and boundless energy.

Everyone felt a chilling sensation at this moment, including Elder Tong Xuan, who was on the verge of losing consciousness from the relentless beating. Even the Dou Saint powerhouses were like ants under this energy.

Seemingly aware of the impending danger, the strange figure stopped its attacks and cast a reluctant glance at the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree. Then it quickly retreated into the distance.

Boom!

The boundless energy, almost capable of collapsing the sky, left a trail of torn space in its wake. It soon caught up with the strange figure and instantly obliterated it.

Then, an evil aura-emitting Bodhisattva Ancient Tree appeared in everyone's sight.

Compared to the good tree spirit, this evil tree spirit was much smaller. As soon as it appeared, it tried to escape.

But just as it was about to do so, countless branches and vines wrapped around its body and pulled it back.

With its main body, the good tree spirit clearly had an easy time dealing with this fellow who had split out.

After the evil tree spirit was dragged away, the energy that the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree had released earlier was immediately withdrawn, and even the damaged space was restored to its original state.

The sky became clear, pure, and transparent. Clear air gathered and lingered over the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, occasionally transforming into different shapes. It exuded a sacred and peaceful aura.

Were it not for Elder Tong Xuan lying on the ground, everyone would have found it hard to believe that a Dou Saint-level battle had just erupted here!
