Hearing Xiao Ping's words, Yang Qi couldn't help but sneer, "Relying on external forces to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm, I really don't know where you get the confidence from?"
Although I don't know how Xiao Ping broke through to the Martial Emperor Realm, from what he said just now, it is obvious that he used external forces. Generally speaking, those who break through with the help of external forces will be weaker in strength than normal practitioners of the same level.
"So what if there is external force?" Xiao Ping smiled calmly and continued, "Even if I use external force, I can still kill you. After I kill you and take the Bodhi tree, the sect master will definitely reward me."
Take away the Bodhi tree
Yang Qi's mouth twitched. Xiao Ping's heart was really big. The strength of the Purple Bearded Bodhi Tree was even higher than his. How could Xiao Ping contend with it? If the existence behind the Futian Demon Sect took action, it could be done. As for the Futian Demon Sect, even the Demon Emperor of the Three Stars Martial Emperor was definitely not the opponent of the Purple Bearded Bodhi Tree!
As if imagining the benefits of killing Yang Qi and taking away the Bodhi tree, Xiao Ping's expression showed a hint of excitement.
"Yang Qi, prepare to die!" Xiao Ping moved, waving the simple broadsword in his hand, and killed Yang Qi.
Whoosh~
Facing Yang Qi who was coming to kill him, Yang Qi moved and immediately swung the Black Phoenix Sword to meet him.
Boom! Boom!
The fierce attacks collided with each other, and immediately there was a loud explosion, and the invisible energy storm was surging, and the surrounding space was shaking violently. If the land of the secret realm had not been blessed and protected by the formation, I am afraid that the land nearby would have been shattered long ago.
"Haha, Yang Qi, aren't you a genius?" Xiao Ping laughed and swung the big knife in his hand wildly. The sharp blade light attacked Yang Qi like a tide.
Yang Qi stared at Xiao Ping not far away, and thought to himself, "Are the weapons, skills, and martial arts perfectly matched?"
Xiao Ping's cultivation was only at the middle stage of the One-star Martial Emperor, but the combat power he burst out had reached the late stage of the One-star Martial Emperor, and was even close to the peak of the One-star Martial Emperor. All this was due to the coordination between the Taoist soldiers, the techniques and the martial arts. Because of the coordination, Xiao Ping's strength was extraordinary. No wonder Xiao Ping was so confident that he could kill him!
"This kind of compatible martial arts skills are not something that the Futian Demon Sect can possess!" Yang Qi's eyes focused. It was obvious that there was a powerful existence supporting the Futian Demon Sect. However, with his vision, he could not tell where the methods used by Xiao Ping came from.
However, even if Xiao Ping had a strength close to the peak of a one-star Martial Emperor, it would be easy for Yang Qi to kill him. The reason why he didn't rush to take action was that he was waiting!
After fighting with Xiao Ping for a while, Yang Qi found that the purple bodhi tree still had no intention of intervening, and he couldn't help but said loudly, "Senior, why don't you take action?"
That’s right, what Yang Qi was waiting for was the purple Bodhi tree!
Xiao Ping had said before that he wanted to take the purple bodhi tree away. The purple bodhi tree had its own consciousness, so how could it not react? However, the purple bodhi tree had not made a move, which was beyond Yang Qi's expectations.
"Anyone else?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ping's face suddenly changed. Although he was not afraid of Yang Qi now, if another Martial Emperor came, he would have no choice but to flee.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ping immediately began to carefully sense his surroundings, but as he sensed, he did not detect any breath of other strong men.
"He wants to distract me and escape?" Xiao Ping's eyes fell on Yang Qi, and a thought flashed through his mind.
But if Yang Qi really wanted to distract his attention and prepare to escape, the previous opportunity was undoubtedly the best opportunity, but Yang Qi had no intention of retreating at all. What was going on
"The little guy really doesn't know how to respect the elderly. If you can solve it, why do you need me to do it?" Just when Xiao Ping was wondering, a sudden voice rang out.
Anyone
Upon hearing this voice, Xiao Ping's face changed drastically. He immediately looked in the direction of the sound and finally landed on the purple Bodhi tree. However, after careful perception, he did not find any practitioners inside the purple Bodhi tree.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Ping immediately became extremely alert. He could not sense the owner of this voice at all. The other party's strength was likely far beyond his.
Just as Xiao Ping was searching for the owner of the voice, the purple bodhi tree spoke again, "Don't look, it's me who's talking."
"The tree is talking? How is that possible!"
Xiao Ping looked at the location of the purple Bodhi tree, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Those who can communicate must at least have a simple consciousness. The purple bodhi tree is a plant, how could it have its own consciousness? But apart from the purple bodhi tree, he did not feel the presence of other powerful beings at all. The only possibility was that the purple bodhi tree was talking!
Puff~Puff~
Xiao Ping was still in shock when the ground suddenly exploded and two tree roots came towards him like lightning, instantly binding his body.
"Break it for me!"
Entangled by the tree roots, Xiao Ping was finally sure that the one who had spoken before was the purple Bodhi tree. However, he had fought with the purple Bodhi tree before, so he was not worried about being trapped by it.
"Um?"
However, when Xiao Ping tried to break free from the tree roots that bound him, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from the roots. Instead, his own energy and vitality were rapidly dissipating.
Xiao Ping's face changed drastically, and he shouted in disbelief, "How could it be? Didn't I hurt you before?"
Not long after entering the secret realm, Xiao Ping encountered the purple Bodhi tree. They had a brief fight, but the purple Bodhi tree hid and escaped with the help of the secret realm's formation. Now, when they fought again, he was actually captured alive by the purple Bodhi tree. The gap was too big.
"If it weren't for the sake of not exposing yourself, do you think you can hurt me?" The purple Bodhi tree sneered.
I see!
After hearing Xiao Ping's words just now, Yang Qi was wondering how Xiao Ping could hurt the purple bodhi tree. However, the explanation of the purple bodhi tree made Yang Qi understand the reason instantly.
The purple bodhi tree has its own consciousness and is extremely powerful. If he reveals any of these, it may attract the attention of other powerful people. As long as he doesn't behave too differently, even if it is taken away by other practitioners, they will just treat the bodhi tree as an ordinary spiritual root.
How many years has the Bodhi tree existed
He came from the Yuhuang Realm, which had existed for more than billions of years, and it was unknown how many years had passed since he had developed consciousness. Even if he was taken away by someone, he could continue to wait until a cultivator like Zhu Xuan took him away.
However, if its own peculiarities were exposed, it would inevitably attract the attention of powerful practitioners. Even if the consciousness of the Purple Bodhi Tree could exist for an extremely long time, it would probably be imprisoned forever!
This is why the Purple Bodhi Tree would rather be injured than expose its own special features! Compared to a little damage to itself and being imprisoned forever, it is natural to say what to choose. (To be continued)
