Chapter 199
For an illusion to affect Fang Yan, to be honest, is indeed quite remarkable. After all, Fang Yan is a master of the Celestial Realm and has even reached the Heavenly Sword Realm, which is quite impressive in terms of realm.
However, he almost fell for it. This locust tree demon was indeed quite powerful. Fortunately, Makoto Kyogoku had called him earlier. If Makoto had come alone, he probably would have been finished before he could even make a move.
He might not even have a chance to make a move, after all, even Fang Yan almost fell for the illusion here.
"No, this isn't just an illusion; there's a real female ghost too!" Fang Yan narrowed his eyes, looking at the female ghost who was almost leaning against him, and revealed a cold smile. He pointed his right index and middle fingers together at the female ghost beside him, and then a sharp sword aura shot out from Fang Yan's two fingers, instantly defeating the female ghost who was so close at hand.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for eliminating the female ghost. You have gained 451 points!"
This scene startled the female ghosts around them. It was the first time they had ever seen something like this, and the first time they had ever seen someone resist Grandma's illusions and remain unmoved by them!
And this man is terrifying!
As expected, these female ghosts are all stronger than An Yilun, and they seem to have done quite a bit during this time.
Thinking of this, Fang Yan's eyes turned fierce, and sword energy shot out continuously, like thousands of invisible swords, swirling around Fang Yan's body. In an instant, he eliminated these female ghosts one by one, giving them little chance to resist.
Fang Yan had no intention of showing any mercy to these female ghosts. Before arriving here, he had already learned about the situation.
These female ghosts are all problematic. Their job is to absorb the yang energy of men outside, even draining them into dried corpses. However, judging from the situation here, these female ghosts are probably working for this locust tree. In other words, they may gain some benefits from absorbing yang energy, but these benefits are not much. Most of the yang energy has to be given to this tree.
In other words, this tree must be the mastermind behind this.
However, Fang Yan didn't know whether there were any male ghosts here. There probably were, but perhaps it was because he was a man that no male ghosts appeared. Otherwise, Fang Yan probably wouldn't have hesitated for even a moment and would have started fighting immediately.
"It's here!" Suddenly, Fang Yan sensed a sense of danger and quickly disappeared from his original position. Just as Fang Yan disappeared, the ground began to churn wildly, and two vines emerged from the ground, wrapping around the spot where Fang Yan had been.
If Fang Yan hadn't reacted quickly enough, he probably would have been entangled by the vines too.
The vines, unable to reach Fang Yan, continued their attack. Facing the vines, which were thicker than his waist, a fierce glint flashed in Fang Yan's eyes. His entire body emanated terrifying sword energy, which, under his control, relentlessly attacked the vines.
"Boom!" At first, the simple sword energy was not enough to destroy the vines in a short time, but it did withstand the vines' attack. Most importantly, the thick vines were actually cut off quite a bit under the attack of the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin sword energy.
While Fang Yan was confronting the vines, the old locust tree on the other side suddenly noticed a change. A hideous face appeared on the trunk—the face of an old woman.
The entire locust tree had become incredibly eerie and terrifying. Around it, a strange wind even blew, causing the massive canopy to sway, giving off an extremely frightening aura.
"Oh no, we need to get out of here right now!" Inspector Megure could clearly feel the ground shaking violently from outside, and they could even see roots crawling out of the ground.
“But it’s Advisor Fang Yan!” Sato Miwako looked at the old locust tree not far away with some hesitation and said hesitantly.
Is Fang Yan really a match for such a monster?
"Trust Consultant Fang Yan, and also protect the surrounding area. If the roots start to spread outwards, you can try using a flamethrower!" Inspector Megure adjusted his hat and said in a deep voice.
Inspector Megure had great faith in Fang Yan's abilities. Fang Yan had easily destroyed the Sadako videotapes that many Onmyoji couldn't handle, so he should be able to solve the problem, or at least escape.
Without much hesitation, he called his superior, explaining that things here were getting a bit complicated.
"Damn it, don't run away if you're so tough!" the tree demon roared at this moment.
(I don't know what happened, the power went out this afternoon. First it was out for a minute, then the power came back on. Then, not long after, it went out for five minutes, and then for a whole hour. If it had been a continuous power outage, I could accept it, but this back-and-forth is really infuriating!! My computer is almost broken, and the input method has been reset! I'm so annoyed!)
Chapter 200
Under the control of the locust tree demon, countless vines, branches, and even roots surrounded and attacked Fang Yan's location.
Fang Yan himself appeared extremely frail and weak in the face of these attacks!
There was no way around it; the locust tree was simply too enormous, and Fang Yan, as a human, appeared rather insignificant.
Faced with all this, Fang Yan showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he revealed an eager excitement and a strong killing intent.
He began to get excited. Fang Yan could smell a strong bloody stench on the tree demon. During this time, the female ghosts and even the male ghosts under its command had done a lot for it, resulting in the loss of many people!
Fang Yan could even sense that the tree demon's body contained a large amount of human blood.
This is somewhat different from some previous speculations, but it also shows that many of those people's deaths were "thanks" to the tree spirit!
Perhaps this guy in front of me is worth cutting down!
The tree demon's attacks were overwhelming and dense. If an ordinary person saw this, they would probably feel their scalp tingle and not know how to dodge or fight back. After all, this time, the opponent's attack was too terrifying and completely surrounded Fang Yan!
"Whoosh!" Upon seeing this, Fang Yan took a deep breath, and a longsword radiating golden light quickly appeared in his hand—the Sword of Excalibur!
Instead of showing fear or retreating, he charged towards the tree spirit, sword of Excalibur in hand.
"Whoosh!" With a golden sword beam shooting out from Excalibur, a large area of the vines and branches controlled by the tree spirit was swept away.
The vines that attacked Fang Yan were the first to suffer, turning into nothingness under Fang Yan's sword.
The tree spirit was in great pain as a large number of branches and vines were cut down by the Excalibur.
"It seems even you feel pain!" Fang Yan stared at the vines that were constantly oozing green sap and revealed a cold smile. Among the green sap, there was also a trace of red and a strong smell of blood.
This is not just the sap of the tree spirit, but the blood of those people that was transformed into this sap within the tree spirit's body.
In a sense, these sap ...
It's easy to imagine how much human blood is in the other person's body.
"Damn it!" The locust tree opposite was also completely unable to remain calm at this moment. So many parts of it had been cut off by the other party, which was hard for the locust tree to accept. Such a loss was too great.
It must kill this human and then absorb all the energy from him.
As the locust tree roared, countless leaves, under its control, swept towards Fang Yan's location. Each leaf was like a sharp blade, seemingly capable of cutting through anything.
Faced with the dense swarm of flying leaves, Fang Yan remained calm. With a flick of his wrist, a purplish-red flower appeared in front of him, blocking all the attacks.
"Clang! Clang!" Countless blades of leaves fell on the shield, making a crisp sound, but not a single leaf could penetrate the shield and attack Fang Yan!
The Seven-Layered Blazing Sky Rings demonstrated their formidable defensive capabilities. While these blades might easily cut through iron like mud on the outside, they proved utterly ineffective against the Seven-Layered Blazing Sky Rings.
··· Requesting flowers · ·
With the Sevenfold Ring of Blazing Sky covering Fang Yan, no leaf can harm him!
Even these leaves cannot damage the chrysanthemum layer that forms the seven-ringed blazing sky.
"Tsk tsk tsk, looks like you're not so good after all!" Fang Yan said with a mocking smile, "Didn't you want to kill me? I'm right here, how come you can't kill me? Show me your strongest attack!"
0 0 0
At this moment, Fang Yan also wanted to see how powerful the Sevenfold Rings of Blazing Sky were, even though it was hailed as the best treasure for resisting projectile attacks.
The effect is indeed very strong!
However, Fang Yan himself has not yet experienced the difference between the Type-Moon world hierarchy and this real world.
As it stands, things in the Type-Moon world are far superior to those in the real world. However, no one can guarantee what state this world will reach as spiritual energy revives.
Moreover, Fang Yan still remembered the rift in the world very clearly, and the existence of the Worms that looked just like those in Kamen Rider made Fang Yan extremely concerned.
Could it be that Kamen Rider is going to appear in the real world and then have a crossover with the real world? This is not a good thing, because he didn't watch many tokusatsu dramas about Kamen Rider in his previous life. Even some Ultraman storylines are better than Kamen Rider.
Uh, forget about Ultraman. I'm too skinny to beat him! That kind of thing is too huge; it's not something I should be fighting!

Chapter 201
Fang Yan's actions were tantamount to angering the "tree demon grandmother," who became increasingly irritable. A large number of tree roots were flowing wildly underground, and the entire locust tree now seemed to be on the verge of "standing up."
The ground trembled incessantly, and an incredibly terrifying aura emanated from the tree demon.
Even humans could hear the eerie wind blowing from afar.
"Damn it, this is going to get out of hand!" Inspector Megure's eyelids twitched when he saw this. At this moment, he was not only worried about Fang Yan's safety, but also about the safety of the surrounding area.
I thought that since all the families in the neighborhood had been killed, there shouldn't be any more problems. But now, the fighting might spread to even more areas.
The most crucial question is, what if other people saw this tree, which is over ten meters tall, and how do they explain it?
Was it an earthquake? Or a gas explosion?
As for revealing the truth, that's something that can't be said for the time being. This has even become a tacit understanding among countries. At this point, whoever speaks out first might be attacked by other countries.
This will cause public panic. We should wait until it can no longer be hidden, or until a unified solution is found.
“That guy Fang Yan!” Makoto Kyogoku could still sense Fang Yan’s presence, but his gaze was extremely serious.
Faced with such a behemoth, karate was of no use at all, and it was unknown whether Fang Yan's swordsmanship could play a corresponding role.
At this moment, Fang Yan was constantly waving his sword in a dazzling display as he faced the vines and branches that were attacking him.
The attacks landed on the branches of the great locust tree, but were easily cut off by the Sword of Excalibur.
Meanwhile, the area-of-effect attacks from the leaves were blocked by the Sevenfold Rings of Blazing Sky.
Thus, Fang Yan held the Excalibur in his right hand and activated the Sevenfold Heavenly Covering Ring in his left, occasionally using the Flying Thunder God Technique to dodge, and slowly walked towards the Locust Tree Demon, putting great pressure on it.
A terrifying aura gathered around the locust tree demon, and Fang Yan could even hear the cackling sounds of various ghosts and monsters. However, at this moment, Fang Yan could be said to be completely focused. In any case, for him, this locust tree demon had to be killed.
We absolutely cannot allow such a monster to continue to live. The number of people who died directly or indirectly from this locust tree is definitely more than three hundred, and that number is a conservative estimate.
While the Slit-Mouthed Woman is indeed troublesome, she is far less troublesome than the Locust Tree Spirit before them.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman kills those humans, absorbs their resentment, and then turns the humans she kills into new Slit-Mouthed Woman individuals.
But this locust tree is different; it grows rapidly by constantly absorbing blood and nutrients.
After all, even Fang Yan didn't know when this locust tree had become a spirit.
Fang Yan could roughly guess whether the locust tree was doing something before or after the spiritual energy revival. But what about before the revival?
If he had already become a spirit by then, the locust tree demon might do something during that period.
Behind this lush and verdant tree lies a mountain of sin!
Just as Fang Yan was about to reach the old locust tree, it finally "stood up," its roots and vines forming its two legs, its branches becoming its arms—it had countless arms...
After it stood up completely, the locust tree grew to a height of over twenty meters, becoming a colossal creature.
Damn it, is this really the start of fighting monsters? Fang Yan's eyelids twitched when he saw this scene. He had indeed killed quite a few people and monsters recently, but this was the first time he had encountered such a behemoth!
