Chapter 446 [Tree Heart] 15

"If you can kill so many demons that bring chaos to the world, you can also break through."

Feng Lan slowly took out a low-grade spirit stone with half a charge, and responded to Liu Qi while absorbing spiritual energy.

"You have great talent, and practicing meditation doesn't necessarily mean you're slower than me."

Just born in the wrong era.

Feng Lan looked at Liu Qi. If he was born in the Tianxing Continent, with his cute and petite appearance and clever mind, as long as he entered the territory of the Beast Taming Sect, he could easily find himself a human meal ticket and be well taken care of.

It’s a pity that the spiritual energy in this world is so thin that even good talent becomes a kind of pain.

This is because all talented people can clearly feel that their progress is slow, like a snail absorbing the spiritual energy in the air, and can clearly see the upper limit of the path.

It’s not that everyone hasn’t reached the level of cultivation, but the spiritual energy in the world is thin, which means that only a small number of cultivators and monsters can break through.

Feng Lan did not tell Liu Qi the cruel truth. She looked at Liu Qi who was in internal friction and pushed him with her air root.

"Don't be lazy, go and deal with the corpses at the foot of the mountain. Piled there will generate miasma and resentment, which is not conducive to my cultivation."

Liu Qi hadn't originally planned to go, but Feng Lan's last sentence successfully made him obey.

The banyan tree spirit's slow cultivation means that his spiritual energy is thin, which means that he cannot absorb much spiritual energy, and his cultivation is stagnant.

"Go!" Liu Qi tumbled down from the tree. "Why don't I go? All you do is order me around all day!"

During this period of time, Liuqi absorbed enough spiritual energy. Although he did not make a breakthrough, he also made considerable progress. Picking up corpses without telling humans was troublesome but not difficult for him.

In the evening, Liu Qi cast a slight illusion and then directed his monkeys to move away the corpses that had been eaten by the demons. As for the location, Liu Qi looked at the stupid monkey in front of him and scratched his chin, "Just dig a big hole and bury it."

Anyway, they are all outsiders who are full of pure malice towards this land. Such people are a complete waste of land and air. They are useless when they are alive and are of no use when they die.

Liu Qi was hanging nonchalantly on the treetop next to him, maintaining the operation of the illusion. His cute little face was full of indifference, and there was no sympathy or regret in his golden pupils.

...

"It stinks!" Liu Qi wrinkled his nose and complained loudly to Feng Lan, "The smell of those demons is even more foul than human toilets!"

"Yeah," Feng Lan replied perfunctorily, "Thank you for your hard work, Liuqi."

A lot of faith power flew in front of her intermittently. Feng Lan only absorbed a little at the beginning and found that these faith powers were indeed no different from spiritual energy. After absorbing them, they would whisper in her ears, full of all kinds of human desires for her. Then Feng Lan let these pure white silk threads float around. Anyway, ordinary people could not see them.

"Hopefully we can catch some prey today."

"I hope the people outside can leave soon."

"I really want to eat meat... How long will it take us to get down the mountain..."

"There are so many wild animals in the mountains, and it's so cold at night. I wish I had brought a quilt when I escaped."

Scattered here and there, they are all the various demands of human beings.

Feng Lan didn't feel much about this kind of belief. She looked at her mission.

[Main Mission - Rescue: Rescue at least 100 people (179/000)]

"Susu-"

Feng Lan stretched his body, and the entire huge banyan tree moved. The branches and underground roots stretched out, giving Feng Lan the illusion that he would be able to walk soon.

After breaking through the fourth level of Qi Refining, Feng Lan inexplicably felt some connection with the mountain beneath his feet.

Before, when she heard the movement outside, she could use the ubiquitous trees to "see", or she could use her mental power or spiritual consciousness to check the movement outside, but Feng Lan would only go to see after she noticed it first.

Now, she and the mountain at her feet had a subtle sense of unity, as if the mountain and the tree were one.

Feng Lan could sense every tiny movement on the mountain, just like she had previously sensed the tiny movements of the animals rustling in the trees.

There is a trickle of water flowing in the mountains, a piece of grass sprouting from the ground, a rabbit hiding in the grass, and the invaders stationed at the foot of the mountain.

They pointed their guns at a group of unarmed civilians, shouting at them and demanding they go into the mountains and carry out the bodies.

"hurry up!"

"Go ahead! No tricks!"

The confused and terrified villagers raised their hands and walked towards the corpses with the cold muzzles of guns pointing at them, but when they reached the corpses, the illusion created by Liuqi suddenly shattered.

All the corpses piled up have disappeared!

"what--"

Someone couldn't help but scream in surprise. The villagers, who already felt the danger from the Japanese's cautious actions, became even more uneasy. Some of them fell to the ground in fear, shivering for a long time and unable to get up.

Some even knelt down and begged for mercy, "May the Jade Emperor, the Earth Goddess, and the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva bless you. I have no intention of offending you..."

"Where's the body? How did it suddenly disappear?!"

In full view of the crowd, the corpse suddenly disappeared, leaving only the scene with bloodstains. Everyone saw this bizarre scene, and the fear rooted deep in the memories of their ancestors was suddenly recalled.

Everyone who saw this scene felt a chill running down their spine.

After the chaotic commotion, a thin and strange man walked out from the back of the team. He was wearing a delicate snake-shaped mask. The mask was blue-gray with a hint of blood-red, and it rose and fell as if it could breathe. A pair of red eyes were hidden behind the mask, cold and weird.

He mumbled a few words, and the panicked soldiers of the Foot Basin Country relaxed a lot. The man with the snake mask said something, and when he saw that the stupid villagers did not respond, he raised his hand towards the translator.

"The Imperial Army has said no retreat, keep advancing! Anyone who retreats will be killed without mercy!"

The villagers were forced to walk up the mountain. The timid ones knelt on the ground and cried for mercy. Because they were cowardly and didn't want to die, they kowtowed so hard that their foreheads bled.

"Get up! Keep going!"

After saying it several times without any results, the man who begged for mercy was shot dead.

Blood splattered on other people, and the fear of death made people cry, but this time no one dared to stop and walk to the place where the corpses were piled before. Although the corpses were gone, there were still bloodstains on the ground, trees, and everything around, as well as some scattered pieces of flesh torn off by demons.

After confirming that the villagers were fine, the soldiers of the Foot Basin Kingdom cautiously walked into the woods with their guns in hand. They squatted down and carefully examined the wreckage on the ground, trying to find out the cause of death.

After confirming that the soldiers from the Foot Basin Kingdom who went in to check were fine, they continued to point the villagers to go up the mountain. In short, they would explore this strange mountain inch by inch until they unearthed the secrets of the mountain.

Feng Lan watched all this silently.

Until most of the soldiers and the guy with the snake mask also walked into the mountains.

Feng Lan's first target was the soldiers who remained at the foot of the mountain.

In the remaining camp, pairs of green eyes flashed in the haystacks, and Liuqi's golden eyes stared at the patrolling soldiers.

Thick fog rose in the mountains without people noticing.
