Chapter 572 - Connecting Heaven Level One! Saint Slayer Sword! (1/2)
“Where did this thing collect so many souls?”
Zhou Xuanji questioned himself. There weren’t many living beings in this realm. Fewer were those who entered this place, but there were at least ten thousand souls here. This puzzled him.
Could there be someone who collected souls from the outside to feed the Soul Curse Evil Tree?
He could not care that much but shook the tree to free the souls from it.
After the souls were free from the tree, they came back to themselves.
“What’s happening?”
“What is that?””
“Why am I here?”
“Ahhhh— Let me go! Let me go!”
“Get lost! “Get away from me!”
Most of the souls had already lost their minds. They were all crazy and began scattering in all directions.
As the number of souls reduced, the tree’s power diminished as well.
If this continued, he would suck dry the tree’s magic energy.
Zhou Xuanji heaved a sigh of relief.
As the tree root lost its strength, it loosened its grasp on Demon God Tianwu’s body.
Dao Lord Xuantian’s voice came into his mind, “Brat, what are you doing? Are you going to keep it?”
“Can’t I?” Zhou Xuanji asked back.
Someone else had been nurturing this Soul Curse Evil Tree. Why couldn’t he?
There were two sides to everything. Although the Soul Curse Evil Tree seemed evil, there can be other ways to use it.
“You better think about it carefully. Only top cultivators of the Heaven Fiend Realm dared to nurture the Soul Curse Evil Tree. It might even be that person. Are you sure you want to do this?” Dao Lord Xuantian asked solemnly.
Heavenly Saint!
Only the Heavenly Saint could grow the Soul Curse Evil Tree that even Saint Contenders did not dare to.
If Zhou Xuanji offended the Heavenly Saint here, would he still be able to get out of the Heaven Fiend Realm?
“If it’s really the Heavenly Saint, he would have already been here. Why isn’t he?”
Zhou Xuanji answered in his mind. Having heard his words, Dao Lord Xuantian had no reply.
There wasn’t even a single warning from the Heavenly Saint, which made things rather peculiar.
Could this tree have nothing to do with the Heavenly Saint?
On the other side.
Inside the Heavenly Saint’s Palace.
Buddha Yang Ling said faintly with a complex expression, “This junior of yours is really awesome.”
A mirror of light was levitating above the chessboard. On it was the reflection of Zhou Xuanji and the Soul Curse Evil Tree.
Old Ancestor Hongshi praised with a sense of wonder, “This brat gave me another surprise. Not bad at all.”
Buddha Yang Ling snorted coldly, “That’s mine!”
Old Ancestor Hongshi laughed. Flipping his right hand, he took out a long purple ruler and said, “Let’s do an exchange, okay?”
Buddha Yang Ling immediately burst out in laughter. Taking over the long ruler and began sizing it up.
Looking at Zhou Xuanji in the mirror, Old Ancestor Hongshi contemplated.
He suddenly felt that he still underestimated Zhou Xuanji.
Could this brat become the next Heavenly Saint?
…
Zhou Xuanji sucked dry the magic energy of the Soul Curse Evil Tree. The entire tree began withering and was on the brink of death.
The sobbings stopped suddenly.
Zhou Xuanji flew out of Demon God Tianwu’s body.
Sitting down, he began breaking through.
Demon God Tianwu guarded him at the front just in case the Soul Curse Evil Tree attacked again.
Xiji Six Immortals observed all these unfold and dared not to draw near.
Seeing that the Soul Curse Evil Tree had already withered, they were close to worshipping Zhou Xuanji.
Too powerful!
They did not interrupt Zhou Xuanji and maintained vigilance.
There was still a sense of danger lingering in the vicinity.
Boom! Boom! Boom…
Surging magic energy boiled inside Zhou Xuanji, rushing against all his vital channels. His body was expanding and shrinking in a strange way.
It was his first time absorbing so much magic energy.
Suddenly, the heavenly tribulation came.
