Chapter 50 I caught you!
When Yang Ling landed on the floating stone island, Lord Haotian, who had been following him silently, also passed through the lava waterfall and came to this huge cave.
As soon as he came in, his eyes were attracted by the Wudao tea tree.
Even though he was the supreme being of the Three Realms, a hint of surprise could not help but flash across his eyes at this moment.
Although there are countless natural treasures in this world, there are very few that can help people attain enlightenment.
Apart from the ancient Bodhi tree of the Bodhisattva Cundi and the six cushions in the Zixiao Palace, it seems that only the music of the ancient god Fuxi can help people attain enlightenment.
It seems that this kid has great luck!
Could it be that he was influenced by Yao Ji?
Lord Haotian muttered secretly in his heart.
However, he did not reveal his true identity. He remained hidden in the dark and waited to see what would happen.
Although the enlightenment tea tree was extremely precious, it was not enough to attract the attention of him, the supreme being of the three realms.
……
Over the Stone Island,
Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were trying their best to resist Yun Hua's attack, when they suddenly caught a glimpse of Yang Ling landing lightly next to the Wudao tea tree and became furious.
"You shameless little thief, how dare you steal the Enlightenment Tea Tree when we were not paying attention!"
Xiao Sheng shouted angrily. His body was like a gust of wind, splitting into several clones in an instant, trying to attack Yang Ling from all directions.
Cao Bao held a long emerald green whip in his hand, which was originally used to resist Yun Hua's Qilin Sword, but now it turned around and attacked Yang Ling.
The whip shadow turned into a dragon, bringing up a fierce gust of wind, and headed straight for Yang Ling's face.
"The Enlightenment Tea Tree is a treasure that we have been waiting for for many years. No one else can dare to get their hands on it!"
However, their attacks were all resolved by Yunhua halfway.
The female war god of heaven was dressed in military uniform, holding a red dragon spear in her right hand, with Qilin swords surrounding her body. She looked at the two immortals coldly and said indifferently:
"Don't look around, your opponent is me!"
Yang Ling was very confident in her strength, knowing that with his wife around, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao wouldn't be able to touch him at all.
Therefore, he completely ignored the attack of the two immortals and responded lightly: "This enlightenment tea tree is an innate spiritual root, and it was not planted and cultivated by you. How can you say it is yours?
Can you just touch your upper and lower lips and say that this Wudao tea tree is yours, then it will be yours?"
"We found it first!"
While dodging the sweeping spear, Cao Bao shouted anxiously: "When we first discovered it, we had already set up restrictions around it!
Anyone who forcibly breaks the ban will destroy everything inside...including the enlightenment tea tree!"
"Oh?"
Yang Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand slowly forward, and sure enough, less than half a foot away from the enlightenment tea tree, he touched a layer of transparent light curtain as thin as a cicada's wing.
This light curtain is very strong and flexible, and contains powerful magical fluctuations, just like a time bomb that may explode at any time.
Yang Ling felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, I said a few more words just now. If I had treated it as an ordinary restriction and forced my way through, I'm afraid the enlightenment tea tree would have been destroyed.
After all, although these spiritual roots have powerful effects, their bodies are actually very fragile.
Just like the ginseng fruit tree, can’t you just push it down?
This Wudao tea tree looks small, and it would be too easy to destroy it.
At this time, Lord Haotian, who was hiding in the dark, also frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.
Those two earthly immortals from Mount Wuyi actually set up such a sinister restriction. They want to prevent others from getting what they want, but they really have vicious minds!
But we can see how Yao Ji and the others will deal with it.
On the stone island, Yang Ling frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao unkindly, "You are wrong to do this!
This treasure between heaven and earth has always been obtained by those who are destined to obtain it!
As long as the destiny is there, the treasure will naturally come into your hands.
The last time you came, this Wudao tea tree was not yet mature, which means that the fate between it and you is not yet strong enough!
In this case, letting go is the best choice for you!
But I am not an unkind person. Considering that you were the first to discover this spiritual root, I will give you a chance now.
As long as you remove the restriction, you can leave here alive with the nine leaves. Otherwise... you will be buried with this enlightenment tea tree."
"Bah!" Cao Bao spat viciously, "Even if you die here, don't even think about letting me remove the restriction!
At worst, we will fight to the death, and you will never get any advantage! "Faced with such a reckless man's words, Yang Ling was too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned to look at Xiao Sheng and said: "Then fellow Daoist, do you want to fight to the death with us, or cooperate for a win-win situation?"
A hint of hesitation appeared on Xiao Sheng's face.
He is different from the impulsive Cao Bao. He is more aware of how unfavorable the current situation is for them!
The female war god on the opposite side is extremely powerful. Not only is she experienced in fighting, but she also has all kinds of magical treasures. It is obvious that she has a very amazing origin.
If they continue to fight, it is only a matter of time before they both lose.
"Nine leaves are too few!"
Xiao Sheng said in a deep voice: "Give each of us twelve leaves of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, and then let us go. This Enlightenment Tea Tree will be yours to use!"
"Twelve leaves per person, two people will have twenty-four leaves..." Yang Ling pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Too many. This Wudao Tea Tree has a total of forty-nine leaves. If I let you take half, how are we going to divide the rest?"
Looking at Yang Ling frowning and thinking, Xiao Sheng felt a little relieved.
The reason why he asked for such a high price was to test whether the other party was really willing to make a deal.
If he just wanted to trick them into releasing the restriction, he would have agreed to it right away instead of frowning and thinking for so long.
"I will give you at most fourteen pieces of Enlightenment Tea! If you can do it, come and remove the restriction. If not, I will kill you first!"
Yang Ling fiercely gave the "price" he could accept.
"Okay, then fourteen pieces of enlightenment tea leaves!" Xiao Sheng nodded decisively, "But you must swear an oath first. After we remove the restrictions, you will not attack us again!"
"Okay, no problem!" Yang Ling nodded without hesitation, stretched out his right hand, pointed to the sky, and was about to swear an oath.
"It's not you!"
Xiao Sheng sneered, as if he had seen through Yang Ling's thoughts, and turned his gaze to Yun Hua, who was wearing red armor, "She has to be the one to take this oath!"
"This..." Yang Ling hesitated.
Yunhua narrowed her eyes slightly and said to Yang Ling: My husband, no, they are cheating!
Yang Ling nodded slightly and also sent a message: Don't worry, leave this matter to me.
Then, he looked at Xiao Sheng and said, "I can guarantee that she won't attack you!"
"You don't have the final say..." Xiao Sheng shook his head and said coldly: "I want to hear her swear an oath."
"Okay, I'm willing to swear an oath..."
Yunhua solemnly swore an oath that as long as Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao removed the restrictions around the enlightenment tea tree, she would never attack them again.
Seeing her swearing an oath, the Lord Haotian, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help but frown and muttered secretly: How stupid!
If she makes such an oath now, she won't be able to stop those two earthly immortals if they try to snatch the enlightenment tea tree!
Could they expect that burdensome mortal and the rabbit that was even worse than a burden to stop them at that time?
God Haotian was very dissatisfied at this moment.
However, his dissatisfaction was not directed at Yang Ling, but at his sister.
In his opinion, the words Yang Ling just said must have come from his sister's instructions. After all, how could a mere mortal be the master of her, the God of Justice?
At this time, the two immortals Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao had already landed on the floating stone island and worked together to remove the restrictions around the enlightenment tea tree.
Yun Hua stood by and stared at them, firstly to prevent them from doing anything tricky, and secondly to protect Yang Ling behind him.
However, the two immortals worked for a long time, but the restriction was never lifted.
Yang Ling couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He unconsciously took two steps forward and asked, "Can you guys do it?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao attacked at the same time.
Xiao Sheng broke the restriction in an instant, stretched out his hand, and prepared to dig out the Wudao tea tree with its roots and mud.
Cao Bao stretched out his right hand and grabbed Yang Ling's shoulder, and said happily: "I caught him, let's go!"
As he said this, he activated the wind-controlling technique, trying to escape far away.
However, to his surprise, Yang Ling, who was supposed to be caught by him and fly into the sky together, did not move, but instead reached out and pressed his shoulder.
Immediately afterwards, a tremendous force exploded.
Cao Bao was caught off guard. He felt a pain in his shoulder and his knees went weak, and he fell to the ground involuntarily.
Then, Yang Ling's voice came to his ears.
"I caught you!"
