Mrs. and Mr. Smith - Chapter 472
Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Three Pure Ancient Tree_1
Inside the Hydrating Tower, Ethan Smith had the same idea as Elder Foster.
“Want the Hydrating Tower? You must be kidding!” Ethan Smith scoffed.
During the conversation with Elder Foster just now, Ethan had suddenly thought of a possibility.
What if there was a secret hidden beneath the Hydrating Tower?
It would take at least twelve hours for Elder Foster’s people to return with reinforcements and come back to Dolan.
Ethan planned to use these twelve hours to try and see if the secret was really hidden beneath the Hydrating Tower.
Once everything was ready, Ethan began to work.
His palm shimmered with light, and a powerful spiritual force gathered on his fist.
The next second, Ethan smashed his fist towards the ground!
“Boom!”
The ground shook instantly! It was as if an earthquake had occurred!
Above the ground, cracks began to appear.
“What a hard ground.” Looking at the cracks on the ground, Ethan couldn’t help but be shocked!
If it were an ordinary ground, it might have been shattered by this punch, right?
Without giving it much thought, Ethan continued to smash his fists towards the ground.
“Boom!”
Another loud noise! This time, the entire Hydrating Tower trembled slightly!
“Damn, is this kid trying to destroy the Hydrating Tower?” Outside the tower, Elder Foster’s face changed, and he couldn’t help swearing in a low voice.
“Boom!”
Another punch!
After three consecutive punches, the ground still hadn’t broken!
“Strange.” Ethan couldn’t help but frown.
What was this ground made of? How could it be so solid?
Even steel couldn’t withstand Ethan’s three punches!
“I don’t believe I can’t break it!” Ethan snorted, his whole body brimming with energy, his fists flashing with dazzling golden light.
“Absolute Beginning Sacred Fist!”
As Ethan roared, the ground began to hum, and the entire Hydrating Tower seemed on the verge of collapsing!
“Crackle!”
The ground fell apart like an eggshell, layer by layer!
Below the ground, there was indeed a hidden grotto-heaven!
“The secret really is hidden below the Hydrating Tower!” Ethan was overjoyed!
In the ground, a dark light flickered, and an unusual aura rushed towards him!
The realm improvement brought by the Hydrating Tower originated from underground!
Ethan didn’t think twice and leaped down immediately.
Below the Hydrating Tower, a dark green light flickered.
Ethan followed the light and moved forward.
Soon, he found the source of the light.
In front of him was a palm-sized small tree.
The tree was crystal-clear green, and it emitted an aura similar to Enlightenment Tea.
As Ethan approached the small tree, he felt his state of mind suddenly clear and everything become bright.
“The secret of the Hydrating Tower comes from this small tree.” Ethan stared at the green tree, a little excited deep inside.
“Once I take this tree away, the Hydrating Tower will be worthless, and all the Great Saint Sect will get is an empty shell!” Ethan sneered secretly.
With that thought, he extended his hand, intending to take the small tree with him.
However, just as Ethan’s hand was about to touch the tree, a large blade came flying through the air!
The fierce blade aura instantly pushed Ethan back!”No one is allowed to approach the Three Pure Ancient Tree!” A cold voice came from not far away!
Looking up, he saw a man in old-fashioned clothes walking towards him.
“Is this… a Guardian?” Ethan Smith couldn’t help but be astonished.
It is said that a spiritual entity entrusted with guarding Dharma Treasures would be born out of worldly Treasures, and this spiritual entity is known as the Guardian.
Ethan Smith had heard of Guardians before but had never seen one.
Upon seeing one today, he naturally became alarmed and lost his composure.
“So this is called the Three Pure Ancient Tree,” Ethan Smith whispered.
Then, he looked at the Guardian and said in a negotiating tone, “This Three Pure Ancient Tree is quite important to me. Why don’t you give it to me?”
The Guardian immediately shouted, “No one is allowed to approach the Three Pure Ancient Tree!”
After saying that, he launched another aerial attack!
Ethan Smith hurriedly jumped aside, muttering, “What a temper…”
“Leave immediately!” The Guardian held his Long Blade, pointing at Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith touched his chin and whispered, “It seems that I can’t take this Three Pure Ancient Tree away without defeating you.”
“Well… I don’t mean to offend you!”
As his words fell, golden light shone all over Ethan Smith’s body!
“Come on, let me see what you Guardians are capable of!” Ethan Smith sneered.
“Swoosh!”
The Guardian immediately swung his steel blade, slashing fiercely at Ethan Smith.
Ethan Smith stepped on the Shrinking Ground Into An Inch, easily avoiding the attack.
The next second, Ethan Smith’s fist arrived in front of the Guardian’s head!
“Sorry!”
The golden fist, with its overwhelming force, smashed ruthlessly into the Guardian’s head!
With a “crack” sound, the Guardian’s head burst open, his body fell straight down, and soon after, it vanished into thin air.
“Turns out he’s just a show-off.” Ethan Smith muttered, looking at the Guardian who had collapsed.
Then, he quickly walked to the Three Pure Ancient Tree.
Just as he reached out, another steel blade came flying through the air!
This strike was much stronger than before! The terrifying sword energy left white marks all over Ethan Smith’s body!
“No one is allowed to approach the Three Pure Ancient Tree, leave promptly!”
The familiar voice rang out again!
Ethan Smith’s face changed as he saw the Guardian reappear!
“How could this happen?” Ethan Smith complained bitterly.
How could another one appear after he killed one?
Without thinking too much, Ethan Smith repeated his previous move and shattered the Guardian’s head again.
However, when Ethan Smith approached the Three Pure Ancient Tree for the third time, the Guardian was reborn!
Like this, Ethan Smith killed the Guardian eleven times in a row, but still couldn’t get the Three Pure Ancient Tree.
“Something’s wrong.” Ethan Smith panted as he looked at the Guardian who had resurrected for the twelfth time.
It seemed that every time the Guardian resurrected, its strength increased significantly.
The Guardian, who had appeared for the first time, could not hurt Ethan Smith at all. When his Long Blade landed on Ethan, it couldn’t even leave a white mark.
But the Guardian that appeared for the eleventh time could break through Ethan Smith’s physical defenses.
“Boom!”
His fist shattered the Guardian’s head once again, but in less than half a minute, the Guardian reappeared.
“No, this won’t do. I will be worn out to death at this rate!” Ethan Smith’s face looked a bit grim.
He stared at the distant Three Pure Ancient Tree and murmured, “Should I just give up like this? Absolutely not!”
As long as he could get the Three Pure Ancient Tree, Ethan Smith was confident that he could step into the half-step Martial Marquis Realm before September 9th!
That’s why he had to get this Three Pure Ancient Tree at all costs!
