Chapter 1234: The Heart of the Tree
The deal is done, Zhou Ran looked helpless.
Shu Xin has already absorbed Yun Hu, so he can't ask Shu Xin to spit out Yun Hu, right?
For now, all I can do is think about how to explain it to Yunzong.
When Shu Xin absorbed Yunhu, Zhou Ran thought that was the end of it, but unexpectedly, Shu Xin suddenly changed.
The heart of the tree in front of him was supposed to be a ball blooming with light, but it turned black inexplicably. The aura exuding from the ball was very familiar to Zhou Ran.
"Shu Xin, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Ran asked eagerly.
"Boy, this cloud fox is poisonous!"
Shu Xin said something that Zhou Ran would never forget.
"Poisonous? Cloud Fox is made of pure spiritual energy, how can it be poisonous?"
"I'm just afraid of being tampered with."
Shu Xin said again, his voice also changed, no longer old and powerful, but a little hoarse.
"You moved your hands and feet? Who moved your hands and feet?"
Zhou Ran was confused, but unfortunately, Shu Xin was unable to explain to him.
"If I am polluted by turbid breath, the entire world of immortality will be over! To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. Boy, you have to go somewhere!"
"Where?" Zhou Ran asked again.
"Wherever the cloud fox comes from, that's where it goes."
Shu Xin's voice was no longer strong enough, and his words had no beginning or end.
Zhou Ran only knew that Yunhu came from Yunzong City, which meant that he had to go to Yunzong City to prevent Shu Xin from continuing to turn dark.
"I went to Yunzong City, what about you?"
Zhou Ran was a little worried. Shu Xin was already showing signs of being infected by the turbid breath. If he ignored it, Shu Xin's condition would become even more serious.
"Take me underground!"
Shu Xin said something that shocked Zhou Ran.
"Underground, what are you doing underground?"
Zhou Ran didn't know why Shu Xin was going to go underground in Linghai City. Zhou Ran had a vague premonition in his heart.
"Take me there quickly! Otherwise it will be too late!" Shu Xin said sternly.
The heart of the sacred tree is of great significance to the world of immortality. The heart of the tree has been infiltrated by the turbid breath in the cloud fox, and it is already terminally ill. If a solution is not found as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Okay, I'll take you there!"
Zhou Ran nodded heavily, and without further delay, he put the heart of the tree into the Qiankun Ring, and then headed towards the underground of Linghai City.
Linghai City had been destroyed once before, and the new Linghai City was built on the Black Spirit Pearl.
The Black Spirit Pearl is a sacred object guarded by Linghai City. Once destroyed, the absorbed turbid breath will be released, and its power is comparable to that of a black storm.
Even among the senior leaders of Linghai Sect, no one knew about the existence of the Black Spirit Pearl. Apart from the sect leader Lingxuan, only Zhou Ran and a few others knew about it.
"who!"
Zhou Ran came to the door of the basement and was stopped by a guard.
This is the Linghai gate area, and the Lingxuan sect has a dedicated guard, but this guard does not know what he is guarding.
"it's me!"
Zhou Ran said loudly. When the guard saw Zhou Ran, he naturally did not dare to stop him.
"It turns out to be Mr. Zhou. I wonder what Mr. Zhou is doing here?" the guard asked.
"I'm here for something, let me in! You stay here and don't let anyone in!"
Zhou Ran ordered, and the guard quickly moved out of the way.
"Mr. Zhou, please come in!"
After all, he was the mainstay of Linghai Sect. The guard did not dare to ask why Zhou Ran was here. He could only follow Zhou Ran's orders.
Zhou Ran strolled in, walked through a long stone corridor, and came to the place where the black spirit beads were in full bloom.
"that's it!"
Shuxin flew out of the Qiankun Ring and came directly above the Black Spirit Pearl.
Black energy overflowed from the heart of the tree and entered the black spirit bead.
The color of the heart of the tree became lighter, but the black spirit bead became darker.
"Boy, I can only stay here for the time being. You can't let anyone in. If you disturb me, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Shu Xin warned, but Zhou Ran was still in the dark.
"Shu Xin, what's going on?" Zhou Ran asked cautiously.
In order to let Zhou Ran do things for him, Shu Xin naturally wouldn't hide anything from Zhou Ran, so he told Zhou Ran the whole story in detail.
"I have known about the existence of this bead for a long time, but the bead that absorbs turbid breath is of no use to me. But now, the cloud fox I absorbed has been infiltrated by turbid breath, and I have been contaminated by it. Only this These beads can absorb the turbid breath in my body and make me feel better."
"With the existence of this bead, you don't have to worry about my condition for the time being, but this is a temporary solution rather than a permanent cure. You must go to the place where Yunhu was born and find a way to purify the turbid breath in my body!"
"Remember! We must be quick! At this rate, I can only last for a month at most. If I don't come back within a month, the entire Linghai City will be over!"
Shu Xin's words made Zhou Ran dumbfounded.
If this guy goes black, he will go black. Why do he want to drag the entire Linghai City into trouble?
He actually kidnapped Linghai City with just one word. Is the heart of the sacred tree so immoral?
"In other words, the turbid breath in your body will gradually fill the entire Black Spirit Pearl? Is the turbid breath polluting your body endless?" Zhou Ran asked solemnly.
"This is not an ordinary technique, and if it is planted in my body, it will continuously produce turbid breath! Boy, if you have time to talk nonsense, you might as well go to Yunzong City as soon as possible!"
Shu Xin urged, Zhou Ran saw that Shu Xin could hardly hold on anymore, so he stopped talking nonsense with Shu Xin.
"Shu Xin, I'm going to Yunzong City right now. You must not mess around while I'm away!"
After saying a few words, Zhou Ran left the basement.
When he came outside, Zhou Ran saw the guard again and warned: "There is something wrong with the Black Lingzhu. No one can be allowed in for the time being. I will tell Lingxuan and ask him not to act rashly!"
"yes!"
The guard said respectfully, and Zhou Ran left with peace of mind.
When he went to Yunzong City, he had to say goodbye to Lingxuan. Zhou Ran found Lingxuan immediately.
"Master Ling Sect, I want to go to Yunzong City once, about a month!"
Lingxuan was stunned and asked quickly: "Zhou Ran, you just came back not long ago, why did you leave again? Is your departure from Linghai City related to Yunhu?"
"That's right!" Zhou Ran nodded and said, "I just went to the basement. The condition of the Black Lingzhu is a bit unstable. If I go there rashly, I'm afraid I will be hurt by the Black Lingzhu, so don't go to the basement for the time being. , it’s not safe there!”
"Black Spirit Pearl?"
Lingxuan was not an idle person, so he naturally saw that there was something in Zhou Ran's words.
However, Zhou Ran is a great benefactor of Linghai City. No matter what Zhou Ran does, Lingxuan will not interfere.
"Zhou Ran, I understand! I will give instructions so that no one can get close to the basement. No matter what happens to the Black Lingzhu, no one will know."
Lingxuan patted his chest and said seriously.
