Chapter 200: The Withering of Tea Flowers

  ♂?,,

  "Xiao Bai, today I'll let you witness the true skills of an immortal."

  Suddenly accelerated greatly in size and speed.

  Suddenly, a white figure appeared in Ling Hao's line of sight, moving extremely fast and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

  "Cicada!"

  Ling Hao's eyes were extremely venomous, and with one glance, he could see that the object, which was about the size of two cows, was a white cicada, also known as a know-it-all. However, this white cicada had been here for many years, absorbing too much spiritual energy, resulting in its transformation.

  Even a cow can swallow it.

  Ignoring the white cicada, Ling Hao's figure continued to dive down, and after a few minutes, he finally stood in a natural cave.

  The cave is vast and boundless, with ghostly axes and heavenly workmanship, like a giant dragon winding and twisting underground.

  The aura has almost become substantial at this moment, sticky and viscous.

  Ling Hao took a deep breath, feeling as if every pore on his body was frantically absorbing the spiritual energy.

  That mysterious Xuan Gong in his body also burst out at this time, sweeping away the spiritual energy everywhere.

  It wasn't until half an hour later that a strange and wondrous scene finally appeared before Ling Hua's eyes.

  All that could be seen was a piece of elite attire lying on the ground, resembling a lake, with thick spiritual energy surging out from its surface.

  This is the real thing, extremely thick and sticky, like a well-beaten egg drop soup.

  "Meridian!"

  Ling Hao's face showed joy, and with Xiao Bai, he flew over and landed in front of the lake in the blink of an eye.

  The difference between a human-grade spiritual vein and an earth-grade spiritual vein lies in physical strength.

  This spiritual vein is as big as seven or eight football fields, like a small reservoir.

  However, Ling Hao knew that this was just an illusion formed by the accumulation of spiritual energy over time, and the real spiritual vein was still under the lake.

  "Xiao Bai, relax your stomach and let me swallow!"

  Ling Hao burst out laughing, directly sitting cross-legged in the center of the lake. The mysterious attack revolved around him, and the spiritual energy within the entire lake began to wildly swirl towards Ling Hao like a whirlpool.

  "This mysterious Xuan Gong absorbs spiritual energy at an incredible speed!"

  Ling Hao felt the rapid circulation of the mysterious Xuan Gong within his body, as the spiritual energy inside him surged in like a massive pump, and in the blink of an eye, it was absorbed by the mysterious Xuan Gong, transforming into strands of pure Xuan Gong.

  Two hours later, the entire lake was finally sucked dry, and Ling Hao's body became a vast ocean of mysterious energy.

  Ling Hao's cultivation also broke through continuously at this moment, reaching the fifth layer of Yuanshen Realm.

  Xiao Bai also gained a lot, but didn't make a breakthrough.

  There are two reasons for this, first of which is that its body is enormous and requires a tremendous amount of spiritual energy.

  The second is that its absorption of spiritual energy is far inferior compared to Ling Huan.

  Ling Hao's speed of swallowing and spitting out was at least ten times faster than Xiao Bai's.

  Opening his eyes, Ling Hao's face was filled with joy, and his gaze slowly fell on the lower part of the lake.

  Only a tens of feet long jade-colored dragon was seen crawling on the ground, with several strands of spiritual energy rising from its back.

  What else could it be?

  "This is the treasure!"

  Ling Hao's palm rose, and the entire spiritual vein suddenly rose from the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it was stored in the endless space within the ring.

  Xiao Bai looked at everything with an inexplicable expression.

  Several tens of feet long spiritual pulse, how can it be said that it is invisible and then disappear?

  This is also too weird.

  "Haha, today's harvest is pretty good, let's go."

  Ling Hao patted Xiaobai and suddenly disappeared on the spot.

  At this time...

  In Hexi County, travelers are admiring the camellias, some taking pictures with their cameras, while others crouch down to appreciate the beauty of the mountain tea flowers.

  Suddenly, a bright red camellia began to wither from its leaves, spreading instantly to the entire camellia tree as if infected with a contagious disease.

  Flowers wither and fall.

  Leaves wither and fall.

  At the same time, this scene also appeared in other places in Hexi County, where camellias withered one after another as if they had discussed it beforehand, and soon became bare.

  "It's no use... It's all over."

  The county committee of Hexi County, the Agricultural Department of Hexi County, and even various units in Hexi County, as well as journalists and tourists from all over the country, were all staring at this scene with their eyes wide open.

  Every year from September to November is the blooming season of Camellia, and it will be at least next year before they wither.

  But just now, 70 to 80% of the Camellia trees in Hexi County suddenly withered and fell, as if they had been affected by some kind of disease or sprayed with lethal pesticides.

  "Secretary... Secretary, something terrible has happened."

  In the county official's office, a middle-aged man was sipping fragrant tea from a teacup when his secretary rushed in hastily and knocked over a chair.

  "What's wrong, tell me slowly."

  Xu Yueliang, as a high-ranking official in Hexi County, is only thirty-seven years old this year. He came to Hexi County temporarily and can be transferred out quickly relying on the Xu family's connections in Kyoto.

  In the two years since he came to Hexi County, many businessmen have come to invest in Hexi County, some of whom were supported by the Xu family and others who wanted to curry favor with them.

  A few days ago, I received a phone call from home and everything is ready. After the New Year, he will be transferred back to Kyoto.

  His secretary was also an old subordinate who had been following him from Kyoto, but he was still young and didn't have that kind of stability in his work.

  "Something big has happened to the secretary."

  Secretary Liu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a bitter face: "Seventy to eighty percent of the mountain tea trees in Hexi County have...have withered."

  "What?"

  Xu Yueliang's face suddenly changed, and the teacup in his hand "clanged" to the ground, shattering into pieces.

  "What did you say?"

  "The camellia tree has withered, as if it had been infected by some kind of bacteria." Secretary Liu was on the verge of tears. Originally, he was supposed to be resting today and was admiring the camellias with his wife and children not far from the county committee.

  He witnessed this scene with his own eyes and rushed to the county committee to report as soon as possible without even having time to make a phone call.

  "What's going on? How did it wither away? Was it infected with some kind of virus?"

  Xu Yueliang's heart was racing as he immediately ran towards the street.

  When they reached the street, Xu Yueliang's face suddenly turned extremely solemn.

  The camellia trees within his sight had withered, and the road was covered with fallen leaves everywhere.

  However, the nearby paulownia tree did not change at all.

  "What's going on?"

  Xu Yueliang, as a member of the Xu family in Kyoto, had been through countless storms and waves, but at this moment, he was also stunned.

  My head is spinning.

  "The people from the Agricultural Department should have received the news by now, they should immediately investigate and report back on the cause. Secretary, please take care of your body." Liu secretary held onto Secretary Xu's coat with a worried face.

  Something big has happened, and if Xu Yueliang doesn't investigate clearly, it will inevitably be delayed for a long time before he can go to Kyoto.

  It may be three to five months, but it could also be three to five years.

  As a secretary, when the leader is promoted, he can have more benefits.
