105: Chapter 008, Weird Tree

After an unknown amount of time, Li Mingxuan was the first to awaken. The moment he opened his eyes, a powerful Aura of momentum erupted.

"Spear Style, great success?"

Li Mingxuan looked at his hands in disbelief. He had expected to pay a huge price, but unexpectedly, he had turned a misfortune into a blessing.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he quickly looked around. Everyone was cultivating with their eyes closed, so there was no danger, but he didn't see the blue-haired figure.

"Did she leave?"

After muttering a sentence, he stopped paying attention. No matter what the other party was thinking, there was nothing he could do now.

Moreover, through today's events, he also knew that Yue Shan couldn't always help him; ultimately, it was up to him.

So he went to Kameda Ichiro's corpse and began to search it. This was an essential step when he was a killer, and over time, he had developed the habit, especially when it came to enemies.

"So poor!"

The contents were scarce. Besides a few bottles of spirit liquid, there were only some kunai and some scrolls.

Just as he was about to give up searching, he actually found a parchment scroll.

The place was complex, and he didn't even know where it was, but it looked like an old item.

"Forget it, I'll check it later when I get back."

Just as he put these things away, the other people also woke up one after another. Different Auras emanated from their bodies.

"They all comprehended momentum?"

Li Mingxuan was even more surprised now. The sword momentum on Qin Tian, the saber momentum on Zhao Qianjun, and the momentum on Shao Long and Shao Hu were clearly just comprehended.

Even the momentum on Liu Ruyan and Ye Wuji had improved significantly, seemingly on the verge of reaching the initial success level in the next second.

But they still hadn't broken through in the end. However, with their talent, they would be able to break through soon after returning.

"Brother Xuan, I comprehended saber momentum!"

Zhao Qianjun excitedly came before Li Mingxuan to show off, after all, those who could comprehend momentum in the Martial Warrior Realm were all geniuses.

Most people comprehend momentum in the Martial Master Realm, and only under the conditions of having talent and Opportunity.

Qin Tian, who was beside him, also smiled, "Now we can also deal with ordinary Martial Warrior Peak."

"Captain, do you know Senior Galan?"

At this moment, Liu Ruyan's beautiful eyes stared closely at Li Mingxuan, as if trying to see something from him.

Ye Wuji also looked at Li Mingxuan with astonishment, as if expecting something?

Li Ming Xuan was bewildered by the question. He frowned and thought for a moment before shaking his head, "I've never seen her before. If I knew her, would I have attacked?"

Liu Ruyan was startled, then became even more confused, "That shouldn't be the case. It's said that this Senior is decisive in killing. When you attacked her earlier, you should have lost your life the moment you made a move?"

"Who is she?"

"Let me tell you."

Ye Wuji spoke at the right time, his eyes filled with awe and longing, "That person just now is named Galan. No one knows where she came from.

All they know is that she challenges experts in the path of the saber and the path of the sword everywhere. Among those of the same level, this Senior is nearly invincible. The most monstrous thing is that this person is proficient in both saber and sword, having both entered the realm of intent.

She once even forcefully killed a Wu Zong Realm demon beast with her Martial General Peak strength, saving the people of a city.

Thus, she is called the Saber Sword god Princess. But it is rumored that this Senior is decisive in killing, and no one dares to approach her."

After speaking, he also looked at Li Mingxuan with a strange expression. After all, he had noticed the indifferent look in Galan's eyes when she looked at them at that time.

But she stared at Li Mingxuan for a long time, which was very telling.

It was just that Li Mingxuan, who was currently shocked, didn't notice this at all. Thinking about it now, cold sweat broke out on his back that he had actually attacked a Wu Zong Realm expert.

"That's not right. She forced you to kneel, so why didn't she kill us?"

Li Mingxuan, who had recovered his senses, looked at everyone and asked, "Even if she didn't kill us, she shouldn't have let us go like this. She even helped us comprehend momentum?"

Yes, it was help. None of them were fools. They knew they had benefited greatly from the momentum still emanating from everyone's bodies.

"Uh, maybe she was moved by us."

Qin Tian suddenly said, "Brother Xuan, we should leave quickly now. It's not truly safe yet."

Zhao Qianjun also quickly echoed from the side, "Xiao Tian and Shao Hu's injuries still need to be treated."

Upon hearing this, Li Mingxuan didn't think any further. Liu Ruyan and Ye Wuji took a deep look at the two and nodded.

"Let's go back first."

Subsequently, the four quickly retreated. Outside this wilderness, there was only Kameda Ichiro's body, split in two.

Great Xia has twelve districts, the Outer Eight Districts and the Inner Four Districts. The Inner Four Districts are named after the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, respectively.

In a secluded ancient castle within the Xuanwu District, it was rarely visited, and no one could be seen.

The ancient castle was square-shaped, with a grassland in the middle, about the size of two football fields.

There was nothing on this grassland except for an ancient tree over ten meters tall.

It was just that this ancient tree was very strange. There were black spirals on the trunk, like terrifying and hideous insect faces.

There were no leaves on the branches, but there were strange-colored fruits growing. The patterns on the fruits were all different, but they all emitted an unusual Aura. A rough look revealed there were hundreds of them.

Suddenly, this ancient tree began to tremble. A branch bearing a strange fruit started to twist, and the next moment, the fruit strangely disappeared.

Afterwards, this strange ancient tree returned to tranquility, as if nothing had happened.

This scene was seen by a figure inside the ancient castle. This was Li Wuji, who had disappeared for several months.

He looked at the remaining fruits on the tree, his brows tightly furrowed, "It's still too slow."

This strange ancient tree was exactly his work, Serial Number 008 — Bizarre Tree.

The origin of this tree was also very coincidental. He discovered this manor while traveling. Since it was uninhabited and the location was remote, he moved in.

Here, he could conduct experiments in peace. The failed products of those experiments or imperfect potions were piled up here.

The ancient tree in the courtyard, which was originally about to wither, actually regained vitality after absorbing those things. It just became a bit strange, like a living creature.

Li Wuji discovered it, this strange ancient tree had already taken its initial form, so he simply let it develop. Moreover, he would sometimes actively pour some potions into this strange ancient tree.

As time passed, the Aura of this ancient tree did not change at all, like an ordinary yet strange large tree.

Li Wuji, who had no clues, made his blood into a potion half a month ago and poured it onto this ancient tree. Immediately, a sudden change occurred, and this ancient tree began to swell.

The ancient tree, which was originally only four or five meters tall, instantly surged, and its roots even covered the entire outer wall of the ancient castle.

At the same time, hideous insect faces condensed on the trunk, and it truly became a living thing.

"Die, die~"
