Although everyone thought that Lu Yan's death was a bit strange, they would never have thought that Lu Yan's death was entirely caused by Yang Qi of the Bodhi Tree Gang. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, even if Lu Yan was attacked by the sharp purple whip shadow, it would be unlikely that he would die directly.
"The Enlightenment Tree itself is a bit weird. Just like what Brother Yang said before, it is different from ordinary personal treasures. Could it be because Yang Qi has entered the Bodhi tree, so when the Bodhi tree faces another cultivator who may enter the Bodhi tree, it will directly unleash its strongest attack?" Just as everyone was discussing, an abrupt voice was heard, and the person who spoke was Zhang Huan, who had just broken through to the Eight-Star Martial Master not long ago.
“That’s a real possibility.”
After hearing this, Chu Hong was stunned at first, then nodded.
The Enlightenment Tree itself was somewhat unusual. If it was because Yang Qi had entered the Enlightenment Tree, it was not impossible that the Enlightenment Tree directly killed Lu Yan when facing him.
Yan Feng on the side looked at Yang Qi, "By the way, Brother Yang, were you directly attacked by that level of whip shadow inside the Bodhi tree?"
"Yes, but the power should be weaker." Yang Qi said.
The power of the whip shadow he encountered inside the Bodhi tree was roughly equivalent to the whip shadow that whipped Wang Yu, but the power of the whip shadow that killed Lu Yan was even stronger, otherwise it would be impossible to kill Lu Yan with just one whip.
"If that's the case, then what Brother Zhang said is very likely true." Yan Feng chuckled.
"Perhaps."
Yang Qi said without comment. He naturally couldn't tell anyone about what the Bodhi tree had done for him, but Zhang Huan's explanation was good, as it would help him better conceal his situation inside the Bodhi tree.
"Lu Yan ambushed Junior Brother Yang, but ended up dying because of him. It's karma, retribution. He deserves it." Shi Xiu said coldly.
The practitioners from Zichen Continent were very happy about Lu Yan's death. After all, Lu Yan had attacked them directly before, and they even thought that Yang Qi was in Lu Yan's hands.
"Shi Xiu is right. No matter how Lu Yan died, his death is a good thing for us." Yang Qi said with a smile.
Everyone nodded. They just felt that Lu Yan's death was a little strange, but they had no sympathy for Lu Yan's death. If they were not strong enough, they would have wanted to kill Lu Yan directly.
The grudges between Yang Qi and his group and Lu Yan and his group were just personal ones, but the Giant Rock World and the Star Dou Continent had huge hatreds, even the Martial Kings of both sides had hatreds.
Although both sides got a Bodhi seed in this fight, most of the practitioners in the team were slightly injured, and Yan Feng was the most seriously injured. After all, his ability to save his life was not as good as Yang Qi's, and his speed was not as fast as Yang Qi's. He got the Bodhi seed only after risking his life.
The two teams stayed together until everyone's injuries recovered. Yan Feng and his team stayed for two or three days before leaving. With the departure of Yan Feng and his team, Yang Qi and his team returned to their previous lives, constantly exploring the secret realm and looking for natural treasures. After all, opportunities like Bodhi seeds don't appear every day.
In a forest, on a huge open space, more than a dozen practitioners were practicing. Not far away, more than a dozen people were patrolling back and forth in the air and on the ground to ensure the safety of the practitioners on the ground.
Inside the isolation formation, Yang Qi looked at the milky white bead in his hand and muttered to himself, "What on earth is this bead? It is even more effective in helping me gain enlightenment than the Bodhi seed?"
The beads in Yang Qi's hand were exactly the token that the Bodhi tree had given him. However, this token also had the effect of helping one attain enlightenment, and was even more effective than the enhanced Bodhi seeds in his hand. However, Yang Qi could not recognize what the milky white beads in front of him were.
"There is a faint woody scent. Could it be Bodhi wood?" Yang Qi smelled the beads in his hand, which exuded a faint woody scent.
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Bodhi wood doesn't seem to have the effect of enlightenment?"
Bodhi seeds can help one attain enlightenment, and Bodhi trees can also help one attain enlightenment. It is rumored that one can attain enlightenment under a Bodhi tree, but there seems to be some restrictions on attaining enlightenment under a Bodhi tree. This is not recorded in detail in the inherited memory of Emperor Haoyang.
"If it's not Bodhi wood, then what is it?" Yang Qi looked at the beads in his hand, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
With his eyesight, he could not recognize the origin of the milky white beads in front of him. However, when he thought that the Bodhi tree had developed its own consciousness, it was obviously different from the Bodhi tree in the records, so it was not surprising that he took out such a token.
Yang Qi's eyes fixed, and he said in a deep voice, "It is more important to seize the time to practice."
Immediately, Yang Qi began to comprehend the sword intent with the help of the milky white beads. He did not forget that the Bodhi tree had reminded him that the third talisman would appear in a month, and when the cultivator obtained the third talisman, the opportunity of the martial emperor realm strongman would appear!
The place where the talisman was born is the central area of the secret realm, which is a dangerous place! There are nine-star martial arts late-stage monsters, and there are more than one. If he wants to snatch the talisman, he must have enough strength. Although his ability to save his life is enough, his own combat power is still a draw away from the top practitioners!
According to Yan Feng, Lu Yan's strength can only be ranked around 40th or 50th among the many practitioners who entered the secret realm!
There are as many as 10 to 20 teams like the Xingdou Continent in the entire secret realm, and there are also cultivation worlds like the Xuantian Continent that have given birth to martial emperors, as well as some peerless monsters like Yang Qi, whose combat power exceeds that of their peers. Adding these practitioners together, Lu Yan's combat power can only be ranked in the 40th or 50th place, and Yang Qi's frontal combat power is only comparable to Lu Yan's.
Whether it was fighting for the talisman or the opportunity left by the Martial Emperor, one had to be at least in the top ten to have hope, and only a genius at Jiang Feng's level could be ranked in the top ten! Yang Qi's own frontal combat power was still a long way from Jiang Feng's level.
Yang Qi is still some distance away from breaking through to the Eight-Star Martial Master level. The only way is to improve his swordsmanship realm. After all, as his swordsmanship realm improves, the power of the Yuan Sword Classic will increase, and his combat power will also increase accordingly.
In the following time, Yang Qi followed the team to search for natural treasures while comprehending the sword intent. However, even with the help of the milky white beads, his sword realm was improved very slowly. After the sword intent was perfected, it was extremely difficult to improve it a little bit. No matter what it was, it was extremely difficult to achieve perfection, not to mention the most critical state of mind that was related to the martial arts master's impact on the martial arts king realm.
Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. Yang Qi received a shocking news. The core area of the secret realm had changed from a dangerous place to a Jedi! (To be continued)
