This locust tree is obviously not just able to raise and exorcise ghosts. It is also very aggressive, and its attacks are stealthy and swift. If Qin Zhong had not been experienced in killing and had quick reactions, he would have died immediately.

Qin Zhong did not dodge the attack of the tree roots. Instead, he snorted secretly, and with a flash of his sword, he cut the thick tree roots that were sweeping across in half.

In terms of weirdness, I am indeed not as weird as this ghost locust tree, but if you compare its hardness with mine, can your broken tree roots be as sharp as my Tang sword?

After cutting off the sweeping tree roots, Qin Zhong didn't care about the half of the roots that quickly retracted into the ground, but rushed directly towards the locust tree. If your tree roots can run away, can the main body also run away?

Qin Zhong's feet were like the wind, and his body was moving at such high speed that the surrounding grass was knocked over.

Realizing Qin Zhong's purpose, Gui Huai seemed to be anxious. The ground kept making loud noises like explosions, and one after another thick tree roots, like giant black whips pulled out from the ground, smashed towards Qin Zhong one after another.

Seeing this scene, Qin Zhong frowned and shouted: "Qin Da, Wukong, come out and help me!"

As Qin Zhong shouted, a ray of light flashed from the space of Tang Dao, and a huge gorilla three meters away appeared in the open space. It slammed its fists on its chest and roared at the ghost locust in front of it.

On the other side of the ghost locust tree, three meters away, Qin Da, wearing an exoskeleton armor, also rushed over with a mace.

The sudden appearance of Qin Da and Wukong obviously disrupted Guihuai's arrangement. For a moment, those flying black whips suddenly stopped in the air.

Obviously, the intelligence of this ghost locust tree is not very high. When faced with the sudden appearance of Qin Da and Wukong, it simply regarded them as enemies like Qin Chong.

The next moment, all the black giant whips split into three, and some of the giant whips fought against Qin Da and Wukong who were rushing towards them.

Seeing that his plan succeeded, Qin Zhong did not delay and rushed forward. Facing the five or six black giant whips attacking him, he avoided them if he could, and if he couldn't, he would just chop them off with his Tang sword.

In the dark night, Qin Zhong flexibly used the shadow control technique. His body was as agile as a civet cat. He moved east and west, seemingly in a disorderly manner, but he was gradually approaching the main body of the ghost locust tree.

As he gradually approached the ghost locust tree, Qin Zhong discovered that the grass on the ground was full of bones, densely packed, including human bones and many animal bones.

Moreover, the closer to the locust tree, the more bones there were, almost covering the entire ground. Seeing this scene, Qin Chong combined it with the previous situation where Xiao Yingyong and others were controlled.

He had already made a preliminary judgment that this ghost locust tree had somehow developed intelligence due to a virus and could actually control human consciousness. Most of the people in the community were probably killed by this locust tree.

Qin Zhong was indifferent by nature and hadn't been angry about something for a long time, but at this moment, when he saw these bones, a surge of anger suddenly arose in his heart, burning like a flame.

As Qin Zhong's anger grew, without him noticing, the Tang sword suddenly emitted a bright light, which then covered his entire body. It looked as if even his body was burning like fire.

Although Qin Zhong had no intention of controlling it, perhaps it was subconscious control, this layer of light was slightly different from the blade's light, and did not seem to have any lethality.

……

At this moment, a tree root suddenly broke through Qin Zhong's defense and hit his waist hard.

Qin Zhong was shocked and was about to use all his strength to avoid the heavy blow, but he found that the thick black tree roots were bounced away by the invisible and resilient light outside his body before they could get close to Qin Zhong.

"This is?"

Only then did Qin Zhong notice the flashing light on the Tang sword and the brilliance on its body. He was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that in his rage, he would discover another function of the Tang sword.

This light seems to come from the Tang sword itself. Although it does not have lethality, it does have extremely strong defensive power.

At this moment, the ghost locust tree seemed to sense the crisis. The ground shook more and more violently, and the huge locust tree actually stood up swayingly, looking like the tree man in Western legends.

Seeing this scene, a thought flashed through Qin Zhong's mind: "Does it want to run away?"

"Human!" At this moment, an old voice suddenly appeared in Qin Zhong's mind, causing Qin Zhong's fast running figure to suddenly stop.

Qin Zhong looked at the ghost locust tree in surprise, only to find that in the center of the trunk of the ghost locust tree, the rough bark vaguely formed a blurry face.

This face looked like that of an old man. At this moment, the mouth of this old man's face seemed to be moving up and down. Qin Zhong's heart moved. This old voice in his mind, was it this ghost locust tree?

At that moment, Qin Zhong also tried to use his mental power to transmit his consciousness: "Are you speaking?"

"Yes, it's me! Human, if we fight, both of us will suffer. How about you and I each take a step back?"

Qin Zhong's mental power transmitted a message, and he quickly received a response from the Ghost Sophora japonica tree. Upon hearing its reply, Qin Zhong snorted coldly and said jokingly, "What? You can't win the fight, so you want to reconcile?"

"You remind me of a famous quote: If apologies were useful, what would the police be for?"

"???"

Qin Zhong's witty remarks were too profound for a locust tree. It was stunned for a long time and didn't understand what Qin Zhong meant.

Just as the ghost locust tree was confused, Qin Zhong did not stop. Taking advantage of its daze, he took a few steps forward. In a blink of an eye, he was less than three meters away from the main body of the ghost locust tree.

"You!" Guihuaishu suddenly became furious when he found that Qin Zhong was still approaching him quickly, feeling as if he had been fooled.

This locust tree was enormous, and its underground root system was even more extensive. Seeing this, Qin Zhong seemed unable to convince him. The ghost locust tree's roar echoed in Qin Zhong's mind: "I am the summoned pet of the Undead Emperor. If you dare to kill me, my master will not let you go!"

As he spoke, Qin Zhong saw the roots of the ghost locust tree constantly pulling out from the ground. The area within a radius of hundreds of meters was occupied by thick roots. Except for a few main roots still rooted in the ground, it seemed as if there were countless black tentacles waving in the air.

"Hmph, what Undead Emperor? He knows me, but I don't know him. How dare you wantonly kill humans? Now that I've met you, you'll die!"

Qin Zhong was filled with rage, even though his previous conversation with the ghost locust tree was just a pretense. In his heart, he had already marked the ghost locust tree with a red cross, the sign of death.

It dared to kill humans and even dared to provoke his people. In Qin Zhong's opinion, it deserved to die for every one of these things!
