Chapter 163: Useless Ability

Ji Wanyi carefully observed everyone's condition. She had to make sure that everyone was okay.

After confirming that everyone would be alright for the time being, Ji Wanyi said:

"Is this your special ability? You can enter the crystal core without damaging its surface, and at the same time stir the energy inside it."

"It can also allow the energy within the crystal core to pass through the outer shell and overflow for your use."

"I really didn't expect that you, a little girl without any special abilities, know so much." The village chief looked at Ji Wan and said with a cold snort.

The reason why Ji Wanyi has no superpowers is that his superpowers completely passed through Ji Wanyi's body and did not find the existence of the crystal core.

"Do you think you can succeed? You said you wanted to save the camphor tree, but you want to absorb everyone's superpowers yourself, right?"

In the end, Ji Wanyi couldn't bear to see everyone suffering, and a strange energy spread from him, pulling out the supernatural powers stirring in everyone's minds, while calming everyone's sea of ​​consciousness and repairing the crystal core.

It didn't take much effort at all.

"You...you..., how is it possible?" The village chief only noticed that his special ability was disappearing quickly, and the people on the ground stood up one by one, and did not hear Ji Wanyi's question at all.

"Your abilities are very powerful, but it's a pity that you met me. Otherwise, even a Level 5 expert like my brother would be defeated."

"You haven't told me how you plan to save your sacred tree yet?"

"Absorb most of the supernatural powers in everyone's body, and then leave the energy that can't be absorbed to the camphor tree? After all, maintaining your rejuvenated body requires a lot of energy."

When Ji Wan mentioned rejuvenation, almost everyone's eyes were filled with surprise.

"You are a bunch of ignorant people. What's so shocking about this? This is God's gift to me. As long as I absorb other people's energy into my body, I can stay young. How could I miss such a good thing?" The village chief did not think he was wrong.

He never harmed any of the villagers.

"And I did my duty well. I didn't harm anyone before the power of the sacred tree was exhausted."

"For the development of our village, I even carved scars on the surface of the sacred tree, sharing the energy within it that was originally used to maintain my own youth with everyone."

"If it weren't like this, the energy of the sacred tree wouldn't be depleted so quickly! I wouldn't need to lure people with special abilities here and provide crystal cores for the sacred tree to absorb."

"I'm not wrong. If you insist on saying that I'm wrong, then you who are blessed by the sacred tree are the same."

The village chief pointed at the villagers and said excitedly.

"You may have been a good village chief in the past, but now you are planning to use the entire village to protect your youth, aren't you?" Zhan Lu asked with a frown.

"Hahaha, what's the point of keeping them here? They can't fight zombies, and they'll just fight among themselves and take advantage of each other all day long. I've long since given up on tolerating them."

"I have done so much for them, so what if these useless people help me?" said the village chief with confidence.

But his words angered the villagers, and those with hot tempers rushed up and started fighting with him.

"Second brother, let's go down the mountain and let them handle the affairs of their village themselves." Ji Wanyi said, pulling Ji Huaiying.

"But you're not..."

"It's okay, you can go now."

Under Ji Wanyi's affirmative gaze, the whole group of people left.

"Wanyi, can the village chief only use the crystal cores he absorbs from others to maintain his own youth?"

Ji Huaiying asked curiously as they started to go down the mountain.

"Yes, such a powerful ability cannot increase the user's attack power in the slightest. It only restores his youth and prolongs his life."

"Logically, this kind of ability would only drive women crazy, but I didn't expect it to happen to men as well."

"As expected, desire is insatiable. Once you start, it's a bottomless pit until you fall into the abyss."

Ji Wanyi was also very emotional. She seemed to see the shadows of a group of people in the village chief.

"What about the mutated camphor tree? Don't you want it?" Ji Huaiying continued to ask.

"Of course, but the supernatural power has been left behind. Once the crystal core is completely integrated into the seed, it will come to me on its own."

As early as when she went up the mountain, when she used plant healing and wood-related abilities on the mutated camphor tree, she was already promoting the fusion of the remaining crystal cores and seeds of the mutated camphor tree.

The mutated camphor tree is also constantly saving itself and has left many seeds.

Once it actually dies, all those seeds will be scattered.

"Should we continue sleeping? The village seems to be in chaos." Yi Shuo asked.

"Of course, we gave the crystal core, why not continue? After all, a third-level crystal core per night is not cheap." Ji Wanyi said immediately.

Everyone went back to rest.

When it was almost dawn, everyone was awakened by the huge noise.

When Ji Wan opened the curtains, she saw that the huge mutated camphor tree not far away was disintegrating.

The originally lush leaves had already fallen off one by one, and the branches began to break off from the cracks and fell to the ground.

In places where they would not be hit by branches, villagers knelt on the ground and cried, calling out to the sacred tree they spoke of.

In fact, if the village chief had not used his special ability to freeze the mutated camphor tree when it was still weak and absorbed most of its crystal core, the mutated camphor tree would have been unable to move.

Otherwise, it is hard to say whether the existence of this mutated camphor tree is good or bad for this village.

It may take hundreds of years to grow into such a huge tree, but it only takes a dozen minutes for this century-old giant tree to disappear.

After the branches completely fell, the main trunk began to peel off bit by bit, and then the entire trunk began to crack. The cracks on the trunk gradually widened.

Countless glowing seeds were squeezed out from the cracks, like dandelion fluff blown away by the wind, covering the entire mountain.

Feeling the scent within the seed, Ji Wanyi pursed her lips.

The mutated camphor tree must have converted all the supernatural powers fed to it by the village chief into seeds, leaving only its own very weak crystal core to merge into the seeds.

With the exception of the seed that was integrated into the crystal core, almost all of these seeds carried hatred.

After taking root and growing, whether or not it mutates, it will have an impact on the people living here.

It seems that this mutated camphor tree is not a good person.

A green seed without any light floated to Ji Wanyi's window.

Ji Wanyi opened the window and grabbed it.

The next second, there was a knock on her door.

"Wanyi, are you awake? It's time for us to go." Ji Huaiying shouted.

"Here I come."

When the convoy drove out of the village, all the seeds had fallen to the ground. On the hillside not far away, the originally towering trees were reduced to broken stumps, completely devoid of life.

Without the protection of the mutant camphor tree's source of life, the appearance of the entire village gradually changed.

The cold air and zombie virus entered the village, and all the crops and flowers that were growing well died.

The village also entered the end of the world at this moment.
