Volume 1: Shining on the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 73 Drifting in the Wind

"Get out of here!"

Shou Chaoge roared angrily, and the long knife in his hand slashed angrily.

Under a few knife lights, the branches of the old locust trees followed closely, and they turned into dozens of stumps and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the middle-aged man actually used some kind of secret technique to press the bottom of the box, and his own aura suddenly skyrocketed, which could break a boundary, and he entered the late stage of the skin and flesh realm in an instant.

Billowing qi and blood gushed out from his body, surrounding his body, like a god of war, surrounded by brilliant sword light.

One after another flashes of knife light, cutting off an unknown number of branches and heels, he kept moving forward, but each step was very difficult.

However, the distance of about three zhang, for the martial artists in the late stage of the Skin and Flesh Realm, although it is not a flash, it is only a few snaps of a finger at most.

But at this time, he walked for half a moment before he came to the old locust tree.

Burst!

A branch pierced through the scarce sword light, stabbing Shou Chaoge fiercely, and there was not much blood gushing out of his chest.

Behind him, in addition to countless stumps and broken leaves, there was also a red blood path.

"You've been tricked."

Shou Chaoge slowly raised his head, looked weakly at the boy in the trunk, and suddenly smiled slightly.

Qiang !!!!

A sword groan suddenly sounded, and the sword qi like a tide suddenly poured out!

Ji Yuan quietly appeared behind the old locust tree at some point, he held the long sword with a solemn face, looked at the old locust tree in front of him, and suddenly muttered to himself: "Yuanbao...... Please! ”

From the center of his eyebrows, sword qi gushed out like a stream, but in an instant, the hard bark of the old locust tree was peeled off, and most of the trunk was already covered with sword marks.

At the same time as his words fell, a sword light suddenly flickered.

The long sword in his hand seemed to have its own life, and took the initiative to slash forward, and the sword qi in the sky converged into a line, and the long sword slashed on the trunk of the old locust tree one after another.

In an instant, the heavens and the earth fell silent, and even the rustling sound in the dense canopy suddenly dissipated, leaving only two messy breaths and a faint heartbeat.

'Click! ’

Cracks suddenly appeared on the trunk of the tree, and in an instant, the entire old locust tree was covered, and countless dark green sap flowed out of the cracks, and the air seemed to be stained with a layer of honey.

"Terran, damn it!"

A face appeared on the old locust tree, and with a roar full of anger, the majestic mana suddenly exploded.

In this surging mana sweep, Ji Yuan was immediately coerced and flew out upside down, and his body crashed directly into a house.

Shou Chaoge still stood in place, not taking half a step back against the impact of the surging mana, because his body had been penetrated by branches and roots, and he was nailed to the ground.

At this moment, a strong vitality suddenly emerged, obviously invisible to the naked eye, but still made people seem to see a turquoise ocean.

In the midst of this thick vitality, weeds grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they were waist-high, lushly swaying in the wind.

The entire old locust tree exuded a turquoise glow, and it inserted all its roots into the earth, frantically absorbing a leyline, as well as the blood essence in the black clay platform used for blood sacrifice in the underground space.

In just a few moments, its aura had skyrocketed several times, all the way to the late stage of the Point Spirit Realm, and in more than ten breaths, it quickly reached the peak.

It's just that in the blink of an eye, the brilliance on the old locust tree's body suddenly and rapidly dimmed, and the breath and vitality in the body are constantly weakening.

It was only a breath from the peak of the second realm to the early and middle stages, and then it fell one after another, and after a short time, only the breath of the early stage of enlightenment remained.

Even the vigorous vitality of that body seemed to dissipate out of thin air, leaving only a trace and a half that was not much stronger than weeds.

The whole old locust tree withered down at once, and the trunk that was originally vigorous and upright was now dry and cracked everywhere, and there was a smell of decay and decay up and down.

And in the trunk of the tree, the young master of the Zhao family, who was trapped here, was full of ruddy face at the moment, and his body was faintly a little shiny.

"Old thing! I'll take away your mother! ”

When a little spiritual light converged in the trunk of the tree, and then was about to burrow into Zhao Yuebai's body, the middle-aged man, who was already weak, suddenly let out an angry roar.

His debilitating breath suddenly rose, and his blood surged, and he immediately broke free from the rotten branches, and then slashed down with a fierce volley.

In an instant, the long knife in his hand broke inch by inch, and more than a dozen fragments merged into the knife light and slashed fiercely at the trunk of the old locust tree.

The entire locust tree shook suddenly, and the aura in it almost collapsed, but it still gathered together with difficulty, struggling little by little to burrow into Zhao Yuebai's body.

Swish!!!

A streamer of light shot from the half-collapsed house, piercing into the rotten trunk in an instant, pinning that little bit of spiritual light to death.

"If you don't make a move, you don't have the luxury of expecting to get the Bone Transformation Pill!"

Ji Yuan stood on the ruins and turned to shout into the distance.

When the words fell, an afterimage swept from more than ten feet away, and three or two breaths came to the courtyard.

It was a crystal white bone skeleton, standing in front of the old locust tree at this time, and after a pause, a bone fist smashed out!

Bang!!!!!

In an instant, the entire rotten and dilapidated tree trunk collapsed under this punch, turning into countless fragments and shooting out into the sky.

At the same time, a hand bone reached into the shards, grabbed a palm-sized emerald crystal, and then took the boy in the air into his arms.

With the next breath, the white bone skeleton shook slightly, and once again recovered Su Hongzhu's form, she held Zhao Yuebai in her arms, and a soft color suddenly appeared in her eyes full of killing intent and resentment.

"Still want to run?"

Ji Yuan glared at him, and immediately burst out.

As soon as the shout was raised, he swept out in three or two steps, and then leaped into the air, the long sword that had been thrown before returned to his palm on its own, and he stabbed it fiercely forward.

I only heard the sound of 'poof', and when the tip of the sword pierced a little spiritual light, the point of light condensed by the old locust tree's spirituality suddenly exploded in the air.

There seemed to be an unwilling sigh echoing in the dark, and as this spiritual light collapsed and exploded, the remaining trunks and roots of the old locust tree dried up at a rapid speed, and finally turned into a rotten wood.

With a snap of his fingers, Ji Yuan fell back to the ground, casually put the long sword into the scabbard behind his back, and then walked towards the remaining trunk of the decayed and dry old locust tree.

"You...... Is there anything you haven't had time to do? ”

After glancing at Zhao Yuebai, who was asleep, and making sure that he was fine, Ji Yuan came to the middle-aged man.

At this time, the Zhao family nursing home named Shou Chaoge had completely run out of oil, and the side effects and backlash brought by the secret method had made his originally burly body dry up, and he was completely skinny.

However, listening to Ji Yuan's words, Shou Chaoge had no way to respond, his body had been completely destroyed, and he could still hold on at this time, completely relying on his own breath.

Now he looked at the boy in Su Hongzhu's arms from afar, his eyes were full of worry and reluctance.

"I just saw it, Zhao Yuebai was not harmed, the three souls and seven spirits are also very complete, and the mind has not been erased."

After thinking about it, Ji Yuan said with a smile: "Even because the old locust tree was dying, in order to complete the seizure one step ahead of schedule, he injected his cultivation and vitality into his body, once Zhao Yuebai woke up, he could embark on the path of cultivation with just one thought." ”

Even with the cultivation of the old locust tree, as well as the rich vitality that has been accumulated for hundreds of years, Zhao Yuebai's future cultivation path will be very smooth.

He only needs to refine the mana and vitality in his body step by step, and he will be able to enter the second realm within a few years.

Hearing this, Shou Chaoge nodded with difficulty, just a slight movement, it was already what he could do with all his might.

Then he slowly closed his eyes, and finally showed a reassuring look.

Bang......

The next moment, his body suddenly collapsed, turning into a cloud of dust and drifting away with the wind, and there was no longer the form of Shou Chaoge.

Ji Yuan watched this scene silently, even though there was no middle-aged man's form and spirit in front of him, he still didn't withdraw his gaze.

Suddenly, he seemed to understand something.

After a while, Ji Yuan turned around suddenly, his eyes fell on Su Hongzhu's face, and the murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

As if sensing the master's killing intent, the long sword on his back let out a slight tremble, and there were even wisps of sword qi flowing out of the scabbard.

For a moment, even the air here seemed to be attached to a layer of murderous intent.

"At that time, I had been knocked more than ten feet away, and it was too late to get up immediately."

Su Hongzhu's face did not change, and then he said in a low voice.

And she was indeed not wrong, when she saw Zhao Yuebai being bound in the trunk of the tree, Shou Chaoge had already activated the secret method without hesitation.

And this secret method of burning everything in herself, once it is cast, cannot be interrupted, even if she returns as quickly as possible, it will not change the final result.

After a long time, Ji Yuan sighed softly, the killing intent on his body gradually subsided, and the vision on the long sword slowly converged.

He stepped forward in a few steps, took Zhao Yuebai from Su Hongzhu's hand, hugged the seven or eight-year-old boy horizontally, and turned around and walked towards the outside of the Zhao family.

Behind him, the young woman's eyes flashed with different colors, both the soft color when she looked at the boy's face, and the fury and murderous intent when she looked at Ji Yuan's back.

It's just that I don't know what Su Hongzhu thought, the expression on his face all converged, and instead showed a smile of unknown meaning, and quickly followed behind Ji Yuan.

The two walked all the way out of the courtyard where the main mansion was located, joined Huixin and several nurses, and left the silent Zhao family mansion together.

"Please also ask the four of you to send the little master Yuebai to the Xuantian Temple and hand it over to my master and fifth senior brother."

As soon as he walked out of the Zhao family's mansion, Ji Yuan entrusted Zhao Yuebai in his arms to the four nurses.

Among them, the young nurse named Liao Qiming, after taking over Zhao Yuebai, solemnly nodded and promised that he would definitely send him to Xuantian Temple safely.

Seeing the four people escorting the boy away, Ji Yuan turned around and looked at one person and one ghost.

"Let's go, let's go to Baiyun Temple to see the situation."

He said slowly.

I don't know why, Su Hongzhu and Huixin saw an indescribable color in his eyes.
