Chapter 272: Ghost Talisman 3 Appears
"Xiao Liang!"
Cao Yanbing rushed into the courtyard anxiously, looking for Cao Xuanliang.
Cao Yanbing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Cao Xuanliang standing in the courtyard unharmed.
Then, his eyes swept towards Xia Ling.
Xia Ling was also safe and sound.
Finally, Cao Yanbing turned his gaze towards the locust tree.
At this moment, the soul tree was burning with flames, and a dazzling white beam of light shot out from the tree straight into the sky.
The sky, which was originally dark, is now as bright as day.
Above the sky, a neon-lit night city looms.
"What's going on!" Cao Yanbing was shocked when he saw this scene.
He didn't know what was going on.
How could the locust tree in their house cause such a big noise?
"Brother, I'm sorry, I didn't protect the locust tree in our home!" Cao Xuanliang looked at Cao Yanbing guiltily.
"No, it's not Xiaoliang, it's me, my guardian spirit. I don't know how this happened!" Xia Ling looked at Cao Yanbing nervously.
The locust tree in front of them was on fire because Xia Ling's guardian spirit accidentally set the tree on fire when dealing with the huge monster before.
Xia Ling's guardian spirit is named Li Xuanyuan, a monk who has practiced Taoism for five hundred years. He is a special guardian spirit that combines the forms of human, demon and immortal, and is extremely powerful.
Just now, when Li Xuanyuan was dealing with the behemoth, he used the Yang Fire, which ignited the sacred tree, the locust tree.
This is also one of the main reasons why Huangfu Longdou guided Xia Ling to find Cao Yanbing.
Xia Ling's guardian spirit can destroy the locust tree and start chaos in the underworld.
At the same time, Xia Ling has a high growth potential and can be a powerful helper to Cao Yanbing.
"Brother, don't blame Sister Xia Ling. I asked her to eat the spiritual locust branches to increase her spiritual power and release the guardian spirit, so she failed to control the guardian spirit."
"No, blame me. It's not that I'm useless and can't activate the guardian spirit. Xiaoliang would not resort to such a desperate measure."
"No, if it wasn't for Sister Xia Ling, not only would our locust tree be dead, but she and I would also be dead. This is my responsibility."
"No, it's not your fault, Xiaoliang."
"That's enough, both of you!" Cao Yanbing loudly interrupted the two people who were vying for responsibility.
"What we need to do now is to stop the locust tree from continuing to burn. You two, go get me some water!" Cao Yanbing shouted at the two of them.
His arms are injured and he can't move.
"Xu Chu!" Cao Yanbing summoned Xu Chu, wanting him to help.
Just as Cao Yanbing called out Xu Chu's name, a huge black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed heavily on the burning locust tree.
Under the gaze of Cao Yanbing, Cao Xuanliang and Xia Ling, the spiritual locust tree exploded with a bang, and the sky was filled with flames.
In the end, only a charred tree stump was left, with a black axe engraved with mysterious runes stuck on it.
"Who!!" Cao Yanbing roared loudly, his eyes glaring as if he wanted to eat someone.
brush!
A figure appeared on the courtyard wall as if teleporting.
Xia Ling looked at the person who appeared, her eyes widened, and she said in surprise: "It's you, Ghost Three Talismans!"
Huangfu Longdou staggered and almost fell off the wall.
"It's the Ghost Talisman Santong!" Huangfu Longdou looked at Xia Ling unhappily.
"Do we really want to match her with Cao Yanbing? It is said that a son's IQ follows his mother. If Cao Yanbing is with her, the Cao family will probably be destroyed!" Huangfu Longdou murmured in his heart.
Xia Ling was fine when she was in the human world, but after she came to the underworld, she kept breaking her IQ limit.
I haven't heard of any side effects from coming to the underworld!
“Gui Fu Santong, a spirit explorer from the spirit realm, is responsible for discovering unexplored spirit hosts in the human world!
Why did you destroy my locust tree? If you don't give me an explanation, don't even think about leaving today!" Cao Yanbing stared at Huangfu Longdou coldly.
"General Huo, you have such great authority, but I did not destroy the locust tree that your Cao family has guarded for generations. I was saving it!" Huangfu Longdou looked at Cao Yanbing and spoke in a faint tone.
What a little brat, he doesn't know his place.
With just a mere shouting ability, he actually dared to threaten him, who was once the number one in the Hall of Heroes.
Cao Yanbing stared coldly at Huangfu Longdou, and Cao Xuanliang's voice rang out: "Brother, the light column has disappeared!"
Cao Yanbing looked over when he heard that.
The white beam of light that had previously shot out from the locust tree was really slowly disappearing.
Moreover, a emerald green sprout suddenly grew on the half-burnt tree stump.
Just as the buds appeared, a black shadow teleported in front of the tree stump and picked off the buds.
"General Huo, stop him quickly. This is the key to reviving the locust tree!" Huangfu Longdou's voice rang out.
Upon hearing this, Cao Yanbing's face changed drastically and he hurriedly summoned Xu Chu.
brush!
Xu Chu appeared in front of the tree stump and slashed at the black shadow with his sword.
The black shadow flashed and appeared on the roof.
"We accept this spiritual locust branch. Goodbye!" The black shadow sneered at Cao Yanbing and others and disappeared.
"Damn it!" Cao Yanbing roared as he looked in the direction the black shadow left.
"Hey, it was still taken away!" Huangfu Longdou's voice came from behind Cao Yanbing.
Cao Yanbing turned around and looked at Huangfu Longdou, shouting, "What on earth is going on? Who is that person?"
"This is a long story, and it's related to the origin of the underworld!" Huangfu Longdou put his hands behind his back and walked towards the stump of the locust tree.
"The universe was created by a singularity explosion and continued to expand, and it is still expanding today.
Someone once had a sudden idea, saying whether it is possible to use the principles of the formation of the universe to create a brand new universe. "
"You're not saying that this is how the underworld came about." Xia Ling couldn't help but interrupt.
Huangfu Longdou nodded and said, "Yes, the underworld is the result of the experiment conducted by those people back then.
They really used the principles of the formation of the universe to create a whole new world.
However, as this world continues to expand, it is rapidly spreading towards the human world.
Once the two worlds collide, they will squeeze each other like two inflated balloons, and finally, with a bang, they will disappear together.
In order to prevent this from happening, the underworld began to prevent space from expanding further.
For this purpose, the underworld planted 130,000 sacred trees, which act like nails to mark the space of the underworld and prevent it from expanding.
The Linghuai tree that the Cao family has guarded for generations is one of these 130,000 sacred trees."
"One in 130,000, the loss of one tree won't seem to have much of an impact." Xia Ling muttered in a low voice.
Cao Yanbing and Cao Xuanliang didn't say anything, they just stared at Huangfu Longdou.
If things were just that simple, why would those people go to so much trouble to destroy the locust tree?
The two waited for Huangfu Longdou's next words.
“If it was an ordinary sacred tree, it would certainly not have caused much impact. Over the years, many sacred trees in the underworld have been destroyed, but this one did not cause any damage.
However, the locust tree guarded by the Cao family for generations is different. It is the most important nail responsible for guarding the west side of the underworld.
Once it is destroyed, the spatial barrier of the underworld will become unstable and begin to connect with the human world.
Then, it affects other spaces in the underworld.
This is also the reason why the Kingdom Organization wants to destroy the spiritual locust tree."
