I Became An Acre Of Haunted Land

Chapter 5: Revival of Spirit Energy? No, Explosion of Spirit Energy!

In order to prevent Jiang Xiaocheng from really digging up this willow tree, Xiang Ye had no choice but to forcefully possess her.

If he didn’t stop her now, the fragile willow tree would be tortured to death within minutes.

The only good thing was that Jiang Xiaocheng was still in the midst of chaos between rage and unconsciousness, driven by resentment and hatred.

Although she looked powerful, she was also brainless.

If she really used her strength, this willow tree that was only as thick as a thigh would probably break with a slap.

Ignoring the waves of resentment that surged in his mind, Xiang Ye pulled out Jiang Xiaocheng’s body from the claws that had pierced into the willow tree branch. Then, he spat out wood shavings that filled his mouth.

“Why can’t you compete with someone? Why must you compete with a tree?”

“Just because it has your aura in its body? So you followed its scent and fought it?”

“Let me tell you, I don’t care how you torture the other saplings, but not this one.”

What a joke. The spiritual energy emitted by this willow tree was becoming more and more obvious. Not only could it feel happiness, but it could also feel pain and sadness.

Joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. What did it mean when a big tree could feel emotions?

It meant that this willow tree might be about to become a spirit!

Its arrival was much more interesting than Jiang Xiaocheng. Besides having a zombie face, Jiang Xiaocheng was ugly and brainless with the sole ability of howling. It was obvious that she was classified as mentally challenged.

Calling her mentally challenged was still a compliment. In fact, she had no brain at all. The paste in her brain had become nourishment for the tree not long after she was buried.

All that drove her body was endless resentment.

Therefore, Xiang Ye was still very concerned about this outstanding willow tree.

When insects nibbled at the trunk and leaves of the willow tree, he would come out to chase them away.

He hoped that this willow tree could grow steadily.

“You’re a proper zombie after all. Logically speaking, shouldn’t you swallow human flesh and drink blood?”

“Why are you eating a tree?”

Regardless of the towering resentment surrounding him or whether Jiang Xiaocheng could understand him, Xiang Ye rambled on.

“Look at you, you’ve got a bowl-sized mouth. Your teeth are also impressive.”

“Are you a dog?”

Looking at the tree hole on the willow tree, Xiang Ye’s heart ached.

The animals and plants that grew on him could be said to be his children. How could he not worry when his child was so seriously injured?

Not to mention that this child might be the only existence who could communicate with him. Thinking of this, Xiang Ye felt even worse.

“If anything happens to the willow tree, don’t even think about coming out again.”

He huffed angrily.

An even stronger resentment spewed out. Surrounded by the resentment, the entire wasteland looked ghostly.

The stars were hidden and even the moon was shadowed.

It was quiet all around, leaving Jiang Xiaocheng standing alone.

“You’re still being unreasonable? Look at how frightened the other little fellows are.”

“You really think I can’t handle you?”

From disturbing the living beings on the wasteland from the resentment emanating from Jiang Xiaocheng, Xiang Ye felt that he could not let her do anything rash.

After thinking for a moment, Xiang Ye waved his hands.

The resentment that enveloped the wilderness rushed underground as if it had found a vent. Xiang Ye decided to collect all the things that disturbed these creatures into his body.

This was the second ability that Xiang Ye controlled.

Absorption.

As a wasteland, it could not accommodate all things like Mother Earth,

However, resentment was invisible and was an indescribable aura that affected living beings.

Xiang Ye could open his heart and drink it.

He would absorb as much as Jiang Xiaocheng released. If she could fill him up, she would be amazing.

Soon, the moon appeared from the clouds, and the cool breeze of the summer night blew into the wilderness again. At this moment, the snakes and insects living underground also stuck their heads out.

A millipede slowly wriggled from the edge of a gravel. A spider climbed up a willow tree, found a suitable branch, and began to flexibly form a spiderweb.

The crickets’ cries also rose and fell, attracting the caws of a few toads.

The entire wasteland was peaceful.

“Now that’s more like it. You made the entire wasteland look ghostly. Those who don’t know better would think that there’s a ghost here!”

Seeing that the wasteland had returned to normal, Xiang Ye nodded in satisfaction.

As an acre of wasteland, he had to have some pursuits, right? Otherwise, it would be so boring to lie on the ground like a salted fish and look at the blue sky and white clouds.

Turning back to the willow tree, Xiang Ye was in a dilemma.

He could still sense the willow tree’s aura, but after being tormented by Jiang Xiaocheng, its aura was getting weaker.

“What should I do?”

Xiang Ye fell into deep thought.

…

“Jiangnan City has opened its first esper (a person with special powers) research center. The National Superpower Administration is cooperating strategically with Cheng Yifan to provide answers to cultivation questions for the vast number of espers in Jiangnan City.”

“Next, let’s welcome the great cultivator Cheng Yifan to the stage to give a speech. Everyone, let’s put our hands together and welcome him.”

“The heavens have a rule that says nature is the true law.”

“I think the cultivators here have already discovered the problem through the world’s metamorphosis half a year ago.”

“Some people can communicate with fire and water and control Yin and Yang.”

“Some people can fly on a sword and roam the world.”

“Some people can move like the wind, traveling 2,000 miles in the day, and 800 miles at night.”

“There are also people who can activate wind and lightning and accept the might of the heavens in their palms.”

“In ancient times, people called these people ‘cultivators’. They were true immortals on land and it was difficult for ordinary people to find them.”

“At first, everyone thought it was a myth, a legend…”

On the podium of the research center, Cheng Yifan was still talking incessantly, but the people sitting below the podium were already sleepy.

Although everyone acknowledged Cheng Yifan’s identity as a great cultivator and knew that his strength was ranked among the top in the entire southern region, they still felt that he was too long-winded.

Every time he attended a meeting, he would always mention the metamorphosis and the eruption of spiritual energy half a year ago.

It was as if he was afraid that everyone would not know.

Now, even the news was broadcasting that they should not go to the wilderness alone. If they discover any supernatural events, poisonous insects, or ferocious beasts, they should remember to call the number of the Supernatural Handling Bureau.

However, everyone still endured it.

After all, as an old Taoist priest of the Divine Might Temple, Cheng Yifan knew more than them in terms of cultivation.

The Divine Might Temple had ancient cultivation methods that had been passed down for generations. It was much faster than espers like them fumbling around alone.

It was also because of this that everyone came to listen to this report.

Of course, they had to give face to the National Superpower Administration.

The spiritual energy had indeed erupted, and their wings had hardened. However, if they really thought that they could do whatever they wanted, they would be very wrong.

When the spiritual energy mutation happened, the country quickly took action and put the people who had mutated under surveillance. Cultivation was cultivation, but if there was going to be a huge commotion, those people would not ignore it.

Some people refused to be disciplined by the state and thought that they had some ability to start showing off.

At first, it caused some chaos in the ordinary crowd, but it was quickly suppressed.

What a joke. No matter how strong a person was, they could not compare to the power of the country.

Apart from studying and discussing, this meeting also had the intention of recruiting people.

It was not only humans who had mutated. In the sea, in the desert, plants and animals grew rapidly in the primitive forest. Even fish ponds and domestic pets would occasionally mutate.

Compared to those big guys in the wild, ordinary superpowered people breaking the law was a small matter.

“Let’s start explaining the way to control water…”

After hearing Cheng Yifan’s long nagging, he finally began to explain the proper cultivation technique.

The originally sleepy crowd seemed to have been injected with steroids. All of them sat upright and pricked up their ears to listen.
