56 -56: Collecting Tree Essence
This time, Priest Wilson and the others closely followed Peter Brown into Chaos Tomb Hill.
Soon, they arrived at the central location, where to their surprise, they found a large tree right in the center.
At a glance, this tree was incredibly lush, with twisted roots and mists of green Qi emanating from its trunk.
The tree was so large that it occupied an entire area.
“What kind of tree is this?” a young man asked in astonishment.
Priest Wilson, who was also experienced, shouted, “Be careful, there’s something wrong with this tree.”
Just after he uttered these words, everyone felt a cracking sound coming from underground.
“Get back!”
Peter roared and ran back.
Not knowing the situation, upon hearing this, everyone retreated.
Ah!
Peter saw a middle-aged man being entangled by branches.
He rushed forward, snapped the branches, and saved the man.
After running for a while and looking back, they saw roots like long guns emerging from the ground.
These roots broke through the soil and stood upright.
“It’s become a spirit!”
At this point, everyone was at a loss for what to do.
“Let me break it!”
After saying this, Peter walked over.
“Peter, this tree has become a spirit and is difficult to get rid of.”
“It’s fine!”
As he spoke, Peter had already produced a fire talisman and struck it on the tree.
With the release of this fire talisman, everyone saw the tree suddenly burst into violent motion, underground roots pierced upwards, and even more green Qi emerged from the tree.
“Watch out, the green is poisonous!” Just as Priest Wilson’s voice fell, a young man who was too close had already collapsed to the ground.
Peter quickly stepped forward, grabbed the young man and retreated.
At this point, the young man was in a dire condition.
“It’s too toxic; I’m afraid he won’t make it.”
A middle-aged man glanced at him, his face changing color.
But Peter didn’t say much, took out the silver needle, repeatedly pricked the young man’s body, and then infused his own True Qi, detoxifying him.
After a while, everyone saw the green poison on the young man’s body slowly recede.
“It’s fine!”
Peter stood up.
At this point, as everyone looked at Peter again, their admiration for him intensified.
“Peter, you have an amazing ability!”
“You guys watch him.
I’ll destroy the tree first.
Once it becomes a spirit, its emitted poisonous gas will destroy all living things in the area.
If it grows to be mobile, it will be a disaster.”
“Be careful, my friend.” Priest Wilson felt even more confident in inviting Peter, thinking that this was a wise decision.
If it weren’t for Peter’s arrival, everyone might not have been able to withstand this tree unexpectedly.
At this moment, Peter cautiously approached the large tree.
He had used up all his thunder talismans, and now he could only use the Five Elements Talismans he had refined before.
After some thought, Peter took out a jade tablet and a talisman brush, and began to inscribe a Blazing Flame Talisman on the spot.
This talisman could only be inscribed after reaching the Qi Refining Second Layer.
This time the process went smoothly, and the jade talisman was quickly inscribed.
“Strike!”
Peter infused his True Qi and directly threw the jade talisman at the big tree.
Boom!
As Peter’s Blazing Flame Talisman struck, a massive flame ignited and the tree shook violently.
The emerging roots shrank back, and even more green Qi spewed from the tree.
The towering tree was now burning, and its leaves rapidly fell.
The once-green tree trunk had lost its color.
How powerful was this Blazing Flame Talisman!
Seeing that the tree hadn’t died yet, Peter took out another jade tablet and prepared to inscribe another Blazing Flame Talisman.
He believed that two Blazing Flame Talismans would be enough to destroy the tree-turned-spirit.
Just as Peter was about to inscribe, the large tree surprisingly revealed a human face and shouted to Peter, “Lord, please spare me.”
The talking tree really scared Peter.
Looking at the tree, it continued, “Lord, spare me, please.
I am willing to surrender and offer my essence.”
Hearing these words and seeing the Blazing Flame Talisman still burning, although Peter didn’t know the intent of the tree, he took out a Water Talisman and offered it.
With the offering of the Water Talisman, the burning Blazing Flame Talisman was extinguished.
Peter understood that after the Blazing Flame Talisman had burned for a while, the fire inside had been mostly consumed, otherwise, the Water Talisman wouldn’t have been able to extinguish the flame.
As the flame died, the human face on the tree seemed to let out a sigh of relief.
“I can’t move you, and I have no use for you.
What’s more, you are full of poison, and I can’t accept you.”
“Lord, please listen to me.
I can metamorphose into a palm-sized tree, and you can carry me back.
Once planted, I can come back to life.
Although I am poisonous, I don’t harm people at random.
As long as I withdraw my venom, I am harmless to humans and animals.
Furthermore, I can guard your home.”
These words instantly swayed Peter, and a thought crossed his mind.
If he had such a tree on his mountain at home, the security would inevitably be greatly enhanced.
At this moment, a method for collecting such a spiritual object emerged in Peter’s mind.
“Transform into a small tree.”
As Peter spoke, the gigantic tree instantly shrank and transformed into a small sapling at a speed that surprised him.
Peter approached it, quickly bit his finger, and dropped a drop of blood on the sapling.
As he formed a hand seal, a True Qi circle appeared in the azure sky above, which completely merged into the sapling.
“Lord, please spare me!”
The tree cried out again.
“I don’t care what your intentions are.
From now on, you can only obey me, or you will die!”
Peter clearly felt that he had a mental connection with the little tree and could instantly kill it whenever he wanted.
At this moment, he collected the small tree and casually put it in his clothes bag.
After the tree was subdued by Peter, he offered a few more jade talismans, thoroughly bombarding the area and breaking several nodes, before finally leaving.
“Priest Wilson, I’ve basically destroyed the place here, but you should still ask an expert to take a look and set up something to suppress it.”
“Peter, don’t worry.
We will handle this matter.” Priest Wilson also felt relieved at this moment.
