Chapter 450: Returning in vain
"Brother Ning, aren't you going back?" Seeing Ning Caichen following behind Yan Chixia, Ye Xuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and said to him.
"I've been walking for a long time, but it's like I've been spinning in circles, and I can't get out of the woods." Ning Caichen also felt inexplicable, just now he walked around the woods for a long time in the direction he left before, but no matter how he changed his direction, he would finally return to the temple monument of Lanruo Temple.
"I think eighty percent of it was the old monster's hands and feet, and when the old monster retreated last night, he said that he would let all of us die in Lanruo Temple." Yan Chixia said with a gloomy face.
"What? Monster...... This, there are youkai here? Hearing Yan Chixia's words, Ning Caichen looked at Ye Xuan and the others in disbelief, originally he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but when he encountered such a thing in Lanruo Temple, the facts were in front of him, so he couldn't believe it.
"Dead monster, dare to say that we should all die in Lanruo Temple, I will cut its original first now, and see how it does evil!" Xia Houjie's face flashed with anger, he drew his long sword with a brush, stomped his right leg, pulled himself up, jumped directly to the poplar tree, raised his sword and slashed.
Because Xia Houjie's movements were too fast, the few people next to him couldn't stop them at all, and they watched Xia Houjie's sharp long sword slash down towards the trunk of the poplar tree.
While!!! ---
What everyone didn't expect was that the sword in Xia Houjie's hand that was as sharp as clay slashed at the trunk of the poplar tree, and there was a sound of gold and iron clashing.
Hiss! Xia Houjie took a breath of cold air, and the force of the shock from the sword almost made his long sword fall out of his hand, and when he looked towards the place where the sword was swung down just now, there was only a shallow white mark left where the sword was cut, and not even the bark of the tree was cut.
"Brother Xia Hou, wait!" At this time, Yan Chixia finally reacted, jumped over, and waved her hand to stop Xia Houjie's movements.
"This is the old monster?" Yan Chixia looked at the one in front of her, who was neither tall nor short. The poplar tree, which has no characteristics, wondered.
"This poplar tree was found by Brother Ye, I didn't believe it originally, but this tree turned out to be strong and golden, which is indeed unusual!" Xia Houjie looked at the sword that he actually had some curled blades, and said with a gloomy face.
"Really? Brother Xia Hou, go away, I'll give it a try! Hearing Xia Houjie's words, a trace of essence flashed in Yan Chixia's eyes, and while saying to Xia Houjie, a talisman appeared in his hand with a flip.
Xia Houjie originally heard Yan Chixia's tone of command. I was a little unconvinced, but when I saw the talisman that Yan Chixia took out, I immediately swallowed the words in my mouth, although I was still a little unwilling, but I still retreated.
After seeing Xia Houjie retreat, Yan Chixia waved her hand, and the talisman flashed with mana and directly stuck to the poplar trunk.
"Prajnaparami!"
Boom! ---
There was a bang, and I saw the magic light on the talisman flashing, and a thick smoke burst out of the place where the poplar tree was attached to the talisman. Quickly wrapped the talisman that Yan Chixia swung, and the talisman only lasted less than two breaths before turning into ashes.
"This old demon, such a strong demon!" Seeing that his talisman only lasted for such a short time. Yan Chixia couldn't help but change her face.
"Yan Chixia, it seems that you can't do anything about this old monster!" Xia Houjie saw Yan Chixia's talisman turn into ashes, and there was a bit of schadenfreude in his mouth.
"Humph!" Hearing the teasing meaning in Xia Houjie's tone, Yan Chixia snorted coldly. With a shake of his back, the sword box on his back was taken off directly into his hand.
Seeing that Yan Chi was about to take out his magic sword, Ye Xuan suddenly said loudly: "Yan Daxia." Wait! ”
"Huh?" Yan Chixia heard Ye Xuan's voice and looked at Ye Xuan suspiciously.
"Yan Daxia, please use your divine sense to take a look at the underground of this tree." Ye Xuan walked towards Yan Chixia and the others, and Ning Caichen behind him was shocked for a while, and slowly followed.
Seeing what Ye Xuan said as if something was going on, Yan Chixia wrinkled her head, closed her eyes slightly, and her divine sense came out of her body and went straight to the ground.
Suddenly, with her eyes closed, Yan Chixia snorted, and her originally round face flashed a trace of paleness, but this pale quickly recovered, Yan Chixia opened her eyes, and a trace of shock flashed in her eyes.
"What a strong demonic spirit, such a powerful old demon!" Yan Chixia's eyes still had the look of shock at what she had just seen underground.
"Yan Chixia, what's going on underground, why are you two mysterious?" Xia Houjie saw that Ye Xuan and Yan Chixia were both mysterious, although he was a martial arts master, but he didn't have the ability of the two of them, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
"Brother Xia Hou, it's useless to cut down this tree, the roots of this old monster stretch for miles, if you don't get rid of this root, it is impossible to get rid of this old monster!" Yan Chixia looked at Xia Houjie and shook her head, and then carried the sword box on the ground back to her back.
"What?" Hearing what Yan Chixia said, Xia Houjie's face also flashed with shock, looking at the ground under his feet, he couldn't imagine that the root system of the old monster was actually spread all over a radius of several miles, "Then what should I do?" Do we want us to dig up all the roots of this old monster? ”
"This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, let's go back to Lanruo Temple first!" Yan Chixia looked at everyone and proposed.
"Hmph, even so, you can't make this old monster comfortable, put a fire on it first." Although he heard Yan Chixia's words, Xia Houjie's heart was still unbalanced, he looked at the poplar tree in front of him, said hatefully, and then walked to the side and took some dry branches and put them under the poplar tree, ready to burn it.
Rumble---
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound from the entire underground, and then the ground where everyone was standing began to shake like an earthquake, and countless tree roots emerged from the ground and wrapped around everyone.
"Ahh Ning Caichen let out an exclamation, only to see two tree roots stretching up from the ground and wrapping around his legs, and then quickly crawling onto him like two spirit snakes.
Brush! Brush!
A flash of sword flashed, and the two roots of the tree snapped.
"Let's get out of here first, and then go back to Lanruo Temple!" A simple knife appeared in Ye Xuan's hand, and with a few brushstrokes, he cut off the roots of the tree that were wrapped around him, and then stretched out his hand, grabbed Ning Caichen's clothes and neck, and lifted his body vertically, and the figures of the two quickly walked towards the outside of the mass grave.
"Brother Xia Hou, let's go too!" Yan Chixia trembled, directly broke the roots of the tree that wanted to climb up from her feet, jumped out of the mass grave.
In the end, Xia Houjie saw that everyone was gone, so he could only take a hateful glance at the poplar tree close at hand, and flew away.
