#1089 - Chapter 1089 Bald Tree
Chen Hao Ran wanted to step forward and put Nan Xi down, but Lin Yaoyao stopped him.
“Senior sister, why are you stopping me!” Chen Hao Ran was slightly annoyed, not knowing why Lin Yaoyao would stop him.
“There are ghosts in this tree, don’t act rashly, wait for Master’s command.” Lin Yaoyao rationally scanned the surroundings, noticing the wind blowing around, but the swaying clumps of withered grass remained still.
Upon hearing Lin Yaoyao’s words, Chen Hao Ran also calmed down.
Ye Kong sized up the bald tree for a moment, then directly took out a talisman with the word “Freeze” written on it.
Ye Kong chanted silently, while his other hand gathered spiritual energy to cast a spell.
With a graceful turn, Ye Kong flung out the talisman that had been activated by the spell.
The talisman directly stuck onto the bald tree, and with a flash of golden light, the entire bald tree was enveloped.
Ye Kong gave Lin Yaoyao and Bai Wuchen a look, and they instantly understood, soaring into the air and simultaneously casting spirit slashes.
Xiu Yu and Nan Xi fell one after the other, and Lin Yaoyao and Bai Wuchen successfully caught them.
Chen Hao Ran hurriedly rushed over.
“Nan Xi! Wake up!” Chen Hao Ran reached out and patted Nan Xi’s baby face.
“Ninth junior brother, this bald tree can absorb people’s spiritual energy.” Lin Yaoyao reminded.
Chen Hao Ran immediately reacted, casting a spell with both hands and gently pushing out, continuously pouring spiritual energy into Nan Xi’s body.
On the other side, Xiao Shan was also casting a spell to heal Xiu Yu.
After a moment, Nan Xi woke up, followed by Xiu Yu.
“Ugh~ Master.” Nan Xi opened her eyes and saw Chen Hao Ran, subconsciously calling out.
“Master is here, don’t be afraid, is there still any discomfort?” Chen Hao Ran withdrew his healing hand and gently asked Nan Xi.
Nan Xi shook her head.
At this moment, the bald tree gradually emitted black gas, and the talisman instantly shattered, losing its effect.
Ye Kong operated with one hand, spreading his five fingers, and the spiritual energy in his palm condensed into a giant palm shape.
“Boom!”
With a palm strike, a monstrous wave of energy surged, seemingly capable of destroying everything. The branches attacking them directly shattered into pieces, and even the thick bald tree split in the middle with a visible crack.
This was the first time Xiu Yu and Nan Xi had seen Ye Kong take action, and they were instantly stunned.
“So this is the power of the Peak Master!” Xiu Yu couldn’t help but exclaim.
Ye Kong withdrew his hand and slowly landed.
“It’s time to go.” His tone was calm and composed.
The others who had witnessed Ye Kong’s divine power were used to it. After all, the potential hidden within this Master was beyond their imagination.
Afterward, the group continued to move forward.
Along the way, Yin spirits and wronged souls constantly tried to lure them, but none succeeded.
Soon, Ye Kong and the others successfully arrived in the Underworld.
The Underworld was different from the Netherworld. Phantoms floated everywhere, and it was not quiet. Horrific sounds often echoed in the ears.
“This is the Underworld.”
Ye Kong then drew a rune in the air, and with a flash of golden light, the rune flew directly towards the southeast.
Ye Kong led the others to quickly follow.
On the other side, Wen Yuan and the others crossed the Wrath Bridge and successfully arrived in the Underworld. The phantoms here were dodging everywhere, constantly afraid to approach the group.
Wen Yuan had never been to the Underworld before, and he stood there somewhat bewildered, not knowing which way to go.
Just then, Wen Yi walked directly towards the southeast.
“Hey, second brother, don’t wander off.” Before Wen Lin could finish speaking, Wen Yuan covered his mouth.
“Follow him, no need to say more.” Wen Yuan warned, then led the others to follow Wen Yi.
“What’s wrong with Father? Why does he seem a little afraid of Second Brother?” Wen Lin whispered to Wen Hou.
In fact, not only Wen Lin, but Wen Hou also felt it. Wen Hou also felt that Wen Yi was a little different today, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
The group slowly walked towards the southeast.
At this time, Ye Kong’s group, on the other team, was constantly harassed by phantoms along the way, who bothered Nan Xi and Xiu Yu, but they were all repelled with one blow.
“You two stay close.” Ye Kong wasn’t worried about the other disciples, but he was concerned about these two little guys who had never been on a mission before.
Xiu Yu and Nan Xi nodded.
The further southeast they went, the lower the temperature became, and the surrounding phantoms gradually decreased, and the atmosphere became even more eerie.
Wen Yi stopped, and Wen Yuan and the others behind him also stopped.
“This is?” Wen Lin looked ahead.
In front of them was a huge round stone. Wen Yi leaped into the air and flew onto the round stone.
“Father, has Second Brother been here before?” Wen Hou asked the question in his heart.
Wen Yuan paused, not answering Wen Hou, but followed Wen Yi.
Wen Hou and the others looked at each other and followed.
Above the round stone, there were runes everywhere underfoot. Wen Yi kept walking forward.
In front of him were four blue-patterned chains, and one end of the chains imprisoned a spiritual body.
Wen Hou and the others naturally saw the spiritual body as well.
Wen Yi walked straight forward, and a gust of wind suddenly blew, very violently, causing Wen Hou and the others to sway constantly.
Wen Yi came to the spiritual body and burst out laughing.
“Hahahahahaha~”
Wen Yi’s eyes were filled with intense desire.
“Hundreds of years, I didn’t expect I could return here.”
Looking at the spiritual body in front of him, Wen Yi laughed very wantonly.
“He, he’s not Second Brother!” When Wen Lin heard Wen Yi’s gleeful laughter, his pupils shook, and he immediately reacted.
Wen Yuan didn’t speak, but let out a long sigh, as if he knew everything, but was helpless.
Wen Yi stretched out a hand and covered the spiritual body.
The spiritual body seemed to regain its vitality and directly turned into a huge cloud of black mist.
“This power, so strange, but so strong!”
Wen Hou and the others also felt it and looked at Wen Yi in disbelief.
At this moment, Ye Kong and his group happened to arrive, went up the round stone, and ran into Wen Yuan’s group.
Ye Kong felt something was wrong, his eyes shifted, and he saw Wen Yi in the distance, preparing to absorb the power of the Underworld King’s spiritual body.
“Not good, quickly stop him!”
At Ye Kong’s command, everyone rushed forward.
“Stop them for me!” Wen Yuan and the others also immediately took action to stop them.
The scene became somewhat chaotic for a while. Wen Hou rushed towards Ye Kong, but Ye Kong just waved his sleeve, and Wen Hou was hit by a powerful force, tumbling backward.
Seeing this, Wen Yuan immediately stacked his palms, pinched a hand seal, and a powerful suction force surged from his dantian, and in the blink of an eye, he directly slapped out two phantoms towards Ye Kong’s direction.
Swish swish——
