People from the Ancient Clan
Within the Tree Spirit Space.
Seeing that the people of the Heavenly Court had made some gains, the Ancient Clan, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, and the other teams were very envious.
These Bodhi Seed have the miraculous effect of increasing the success rate of advancing to the Dou Sheng. They can even be used to refine Bodhi Pill, Grade 8 Pill that can summon Nine-colored Pill Lightning. This is enough to drive countless powerhouses at the peak of the Nine-Turn Dou Zun crazy. If these Bodhi Seed were given to them, perhaps someone could really break through to the Dou Sheng with their help.
But most people didn't have the guts to ask Xiao Ming for it.
However, the world is never short of people who are willing to risk their lives, especially since these people are already very adventurous when they come to the Desolate Ancient Region.
Seeing that Xiao Ming's attitude was relatively mild towards everyone except the Soul Clan, a wicked thought began to form in her mind.
I won't ask you for them, but I can humbly ask how you obtained the Bodhi Seed, right? Asking won't hurt!
Even if we can't find out, we won't lose anything.
You, as the Alliance Leader of a powerful, righteous faction, can't possibly take action against us nobody's just because of a few issues, can you?
With this in mind, someone from an unknown group spoke up.
"Hahaha, such a scourge as the Soul Clan should be severely punished! We were tricked by them before, but we were too weak to do anything to them. Fortunately, Alliance Leader Xiao was here. You truly deserve to be the Alliance Leader of the Heavenly Court. Your actions are fair and just. It is truly gratifying to see them executed!"
"Moreover, Alliance Leader Xiao truly cherishes his subordinates. He bestows such a sacred object as the Bodhi Seed so readily, he is a model for us all! We dare not even dream of having this Bodhi Seed, but we are unaware of the mysteries of this Bodhi Ancient Tree. Could Alliance Leader Xiao perhaps offer some guidance?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked in surprise in the direction of the speaker.
There stood three people. The one in the lead was quite thin. Although he wore a humble and ingratiating smile, he couldn't quite hide the sinister look on his face.
Behind him were an old man and a rather young-looking man. However, although the young man looked young, his eyes revealed that he was also an old monster whose age was no less than the other two.
Apart from the young man who had a better appearance, the other two gave off a rather sinister feeling, and the Aura emanating from their bodies was quite terrifying.
These three are among the strongest of everyone, especially the leader, who seems to have one foot in the Half-Saint. No wonder he risked asking Xiao Ming a question.
Xiao Ming also turned his gaze over. In this situation, they still dared to ask him questions. He admired their courage.
After looking the three of them up and down, Xiao Ming didn't answer their questions right away, but instead said:
"You guys have guts. State your names."
"Uh, this..."
The three, who came from humble backgrounds, were taken aback when Xiao Ming asked about their names, as they were just small fry. After all, they had a bad reputation, even though they hadn't offended the Heavenly Court.
Seeing their hesitation, Xiao Ming looked at a powerful figure from the Heavenly Court standing to the side.
The elderly Heavenly Court expert understood and stepped forward to report, "Reporting to the Alliance Leader, these three are the Cloud Rain Sect Old Ancestor and the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts!"
"The Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts?"
Xiao Ming laughed. No wonder he was stammering and didn't dare to speak; it turned out to be the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts!
When he was Dou Zong, Xiao Ming remembered that in order to refine the Heaven Demon Puppet, he had offered a bounty and killed many evil cultivators. At that time, he had also thought about the Three Evil Demons, but because his strength was insufficient, he only thought about it.
Unexpectedly, they've now come to us of their own accord.
Xiao Ming no longer needs Heaven Demon Puppet of the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts's level, but he doesn't intend to let them go.
After all, the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts were the kind of people he found most disgusting.
If you find it disgusting, then just strangle it!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, he lightly struck out with his palm. The space collapsed in an instant, and the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts were still fawning and smiling were completely wiped out by Xiao Ming.
This sudden attack startled the others, who couldn't help but swallow hard.
"I apologize, these Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts have committed numerous evil deeds, so I couldn't help but take action. I hope I didn't frighten you all?"
"No! No! Alliance Leader Xiao's intervention to eliminate this scourge is a righteous act, why would we be afraid! Ha... ha..."
At this moment, the group of Rogue Cultivator found Xiao Ming's handsome smile terrifying. After all, they didn't know Xiao Ming's true thoughts, yet they dared not oppose him and could only force a smile.
Xiao Ming saw through their insincerity but didn't care. He simply said softly:
"The Bodhi Seed from the Bodhi Ancient Tree can only be given to you by the Bodhi Ancient Tree itself. If you want Bodhi Seeds, you can ask the Bodhi Ancient Tree for them. By the way, you can't defeat it without taking action."
"This... thank you very much, Alliance Leader Xiao!"
To everyone's surprise, Xiao Ming actually answered the question. They looked around but had no doubts and thanked Xiao Ming.
For a moment, I felt that it was good that the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts died, at least they had made a contribution to them.
In fact, the Scorpion Demon Three Ghosts already had a bad reputation in Central Plains, and they had been besieged and attacked before.
After expressing their gratitude, one by one, these people ran to the Bodhi Ancient Tree, each displaying their unique abilities, and asked the Bodhi Ancient Tree for a Bodhi Seed.
But they weren't Xiao Ming, and they hadn't passed the test, so the Bodhi Ancient Tree didn't even bother with them.
Gu Xun'er, Gu Qing Yang, and the others also stepped forward one by one, but all of them failed.
Some people, after failing, uttered a curse and were even lashed out by the Bodhi Ancient Tree, truly an unlucky occurrence.
After everyone had finished trying, Xiao Ming shook his head and wanted the Bodhi Ancient Tree to send them away.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan members were too weak for Zi Yan to bother with, and Xiao Ming had no intention of dealing with them either.
Just as he was about to speak, Gu Qing Yang stepped forward and said, "Alliance Leader Xiao, Qing Yang have a question. May I ask you for clarification?"
"Oh? What doubts does Commander Qing Yang have?"
Xiao Ming raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Qing Yang. He was quite curious about what questions this second Ancient Clan, who had been relatively quiet since meeting him, had.
"An elder of my Ancient Clan entered this Desolate Ancient Region with us, but his whereabouts disappeared some time ago. I wonder if you have sensed anything unusual about him?"
"I never sensed it."
"I understand, thank you for clarifying my doubts."
Gu Qing Yang was somewhat disappointed, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, and retreated.
"Alright, now that things have come to this, you can leave!"
In the Desolate Ancient Region, beneath the Bodhi Ancient Tree.
Dozens of people suddenly appeared out of thin air. These people were no ordinary individuals; each of them was a powerful expert above the Dou Zun, and they were all figures of the highest caliber in the Central Continent.
These were Gu Xun'er had been kicked out of the Tree Spirit Space by Xiao Ming with a single sentence.
This time, apart from the people from Heavenly Court, no one else obtained the Bodhi Seed.
After glancing at the Bodhi Ancient Tree exuding a Clear Qi, they were still somewhat unwilling to give up.
However, no one went to cause trouble for the Bodhi Ancient Tree or the Heavenly Court.
"Perhaps I could join the Heavenly Court and obtain those three Bodhi Seed from the Merit Pavilion..."
With this in mind, people quickly surrounded the people of Heavenly Court, enthusiastically asking them how to join Heavenly Court.
Looking at the lively scene beside him, Gu Qing Yang sighed and then looked at Gu Xun'er.
"Xun'er, Elder Gu Yun has disappeared. We should inform the clan."
Besides the Dou Sheng specially dispatched this time, Gu Xun'er also has Spatial Jade Slip that can connect with Dou Sheng within the clan, and she even has Spatial Jade Slip that can connect with Gu Yuan.
"Um."
Gu Xun'er nodded, then flipped her hand and crushed a Spatial Jade Slip.
Before long, a dark spatial passage opened in the sky, filled with vast holy power, and a figure in white slowly stepped out.
