"It turns out there really are rats hiding in the dark."
When hearing this, Elder You was horrified and suddenly felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart and reaching the top of his head.
Without even a second thought, he immediately used his physical skills to the fullest, creating numerous phantoms on the spot and dodged forward desperately.
Just as the phantom appeared, a hand suddenly appeared, tore the phantom apart and crushed the airflow.
If Elder You had not dodged quickly, he would have been caught in the back and his life would have been in danger.
"Hey, Rat, you have pretty good physical skills."
The figure with disheveled hair was a little unexpected.
However, he did not stop. Instead, he stepped on the ground, stuck close behind Elder You, and grabbed out with another claw.
Elder You was shocked when he sensed this scene.
His own phantom clone was actually seen through so easily.
It can be imagined that the other party's martial arts level is probably much higher than his.
Thinking about the strange magic skills that the opponent had performed, Elder You no longer had the slightest desire to fight.
He immediately activated the rare treasure in his arms.
The next moment, a black halo emerged from Elder You's arms and quickly spread over his entire body.
The black halo not only bounced away the hand of the disheveled figure, but also directly wrapped around Elder You's body, turning into a stream of light and quickly going down the mountain.
"Magic weapon?"
The disheveled figure was startled. He didn't expect that the rat who was peeping at the side actually had a magic weapon.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to stop it.
The power of the magic weapon is not something he can block now.
They could only watch as Elder You was carried away by the black light and quickly disappeared into the night.
"This rat escaped."
The disheveled figure looked very upset.
If he had known that this rat had a magic weapon, and it was a magic weapon, he should have given it his all from the beginning.
If he could get hold of the magic weapon, it would be a great help to him who is now penniless.
"My luck has been getting worse and worse recently. Could it be that the laws of nature in this world are targeting me?"
Twice in a row, I was tricked.
The disheveled figure suddenly became alert.
After returning from Zhongzhou, his luck has been a bit bad.
Not only has his injury never fully healed, but he also suffered two defeats in a row tonight.
From a practitioner's perspective, this is definitely not a good sign.
It is very likely that he has been targeted by this Heavenly Dao.
"Damn it, it's all that brat's fault. If he hadn't forced me to perform the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique and leak my origin, how could I have been noticed by the Heavenly Dao of this world!"
The disheveled figure thought of the culprit who caused his current situation, and a look of resentment flashed in his eyes.
If he had not been injured by Lu Qing that day, and his original energy had not been taken away, he would have been forced to use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique.
How could he have fallen to this point?
Whenever he thought of this, the resentment in his heart could not be faded even if he gave it all to everyone in the world.
“Just wait, one day, I will find you and destroy everything you have.
I will extract your spirit and burn it for tens of millions of years.
If I don't do this, I won't be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart!"
The disheveled figure gradually disappeared, leaving only the hateful voice floating in the mountains and forests.
Dozens of miles away, a beam of black light flew at a very low speed under the moonlight.
Soon they landed in a valley. The black light dissipated, revealing Elder You's pale face.
Elder You carefully took out a black shuttle-shaped jade talisman from his arms.
Looking at the cracks on the jade talisman, Elder You felt a little heartbroken.
The treasure given to him by the host can only be used three times at most.
I didn’t expect that I’ve used it twice not long after it came out.
If it happens again, the treasure will be completely shattered and completely useless.
“I didn’t expect that the outside world has become so dangerous.
In just a few days, I encountered two life-and-death crises."
Elder You looked back in the direction of Qingyun Sword Pavilion with lingering fear.
Without hesitation, he immediately used his skills and continued to move forward.
The danger posed to him by the strange figure before was even greater than that posed by the old man he met in Wei Mansion that day.
It’s not that the man’s cultivation is stronger, but his skills are too strange and terrifying.
The incomparably pure demonic aura was so strong that even he, the elder of Wujian Tower, was trembling with fear.
So even though he had escaped dozens of miles away, he still didn't feel safe.
"It seems like it's time to go back. If I die outside, no one will be able to bring back the information from the outside world."
After Elder You made up his mind, he moved even faster and gradually disappeared into the darkness.
The turbulent situation in the outside world and the unpredictable circumstances have no impact on the tranquility of Jiuli Village.
Ever since Lu Qing set up the formation, the environment in Jiuli Village has become better and better.
The trees are lush and the temperature is pleasant.
Even in this hot day, you can feel cool and refreshing when you are in it.
Coupled with the spiritual energy surrounding it, it is almost like a paradise on earth.
The villagers also discovered that their bodies were becoming healthier and more energetic day by day.
I understand that these changes were caused by Lu Qing's magic.
The villagers' gratitude towards Lu Qing also increased day by day.
"Grandpa Zhang, you said you had something important to talk to me about. What is it?"
On this day, Lu Qing was performing the magic of spiritual rain on Lingtian when he saw Uncle Zhang and several village elders coming up the mountain to find him.
"It's about the letter tree at the entrance of the village."
Uncle Zhang and several other old men were amazed when they saw Lu Qing performing the art of lovemaking.
They had never seen or even heard of using magic to irrigate rice fields.
The key point is that the seedlings in the rice fields that Lu Qing watered were equally strange.
Not only does it grow very strong, but there are also hints of golden light on the tips of its leaves, which makes it look very unusual.
"Ah Qing, why are your rice seedlings glowing with golden light?"
An elder from the village couldn't help but ask.
"This is a new rice seed that I tried to cultivate using magic. The seedlings I planted are so special that they grow in a special way."
Lu Qing explained with a smile.
The villagers already knew that he knew magic, so he didn't hide it.
"What would it be like to grow rice using magic?"
Another village elder said with eyes wide open.
"I don't know what they will look like in the future. You can come and have a look when it's time to harvest them."
"Okay."
The elderly men were all farmers who had been farming for their entire lives. Naturally, they were very curious about the rice grown using magic, and they all agreed immediately.
"By the way, Grandpa Zhang, what happened to Xinshu just now?" Lu Qing asked.
The letter tree is the big tree where the villagers tie red ropes when they go out on weekdays.
It has a special meaning in the hearts of the villagers of Jiuli Village, and Lu Qing is also very concerned about it.
"We can't explain what's going on. Why don't you go and take a look yourself?" said Uncle Zhang.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
It just so happened that Lu Qing had just watered the two acres of spiritual fields. After he made a gesture to disperse the clouds, he went down the mountain with Uncle Zhang and the others and came to the entrance of the village.
At this time, quite a few people had gathered at the entrance of the village.
Many people gathered around the tree, no one knew what they were looking at, and they kept making exclamations from time to time.
Lu Qing even saw Hu Laosan in the crowd.
Over the past few days, the Hu father and daughter have gradually integrated into the village life.
Especially Hu Laosan, he is a very smart person.
Naturally, it is easy to gain the favor of the villagers.
So everyone gradually accepted him.
"Everyone, spread out, Ah Qing is here!"
Some villagers saw Lu Qing, Uncle Zhang and others coming and shouted immediately.
The villagers immediately dispersed to both sides, allowing Lu Qing and his companions to come to the tree of faith.
When he saw the letter tree, Lu Qing was also a little surprised.
Because Xinshu's appearance at this time has changed a lot compared to before.
The first thing is that the leaves become greener, which goes without saying.
Secondly, the whole tree has become much taller.
Especially the roots underneath, which were already tangled and intertwined, now gathered together and formed the shape of a small house.
The most important thing is that Lu Qing actually felt a strange vibration from the big tree.
"Hey, the power of incense?"
At this moment, the voice of "Yan" suddenly sounded from Lu Qing's mind.
"Senior, what is the power of incense?" Lu Qing asked.
The inheritance left by the Lihuo Sect did not mention any information about the power of incense.
"You don't know? That's right. The Lihuo Sect has not delved into the way of incense, so it's normal that you don't know."
“The so-called power of incense is actually a special power condensed from pure thoughts and beliefs.
Most of the immortal cultivation sects have no research on this, but it is the Xuankong Mountain that has a grudge against you.
In the ancient times of cultivating immortals, people were quite good at this.
I just didn't expect that this little tree in the countryside could actually condense the power of incense. It's really rare."
"Yan" was talking freely in Lu Qing's mind.
It was rare that Lu Qing didn't know something, which gave him plenty of time to talk about.
"So that's how it is. I wonder what the power of incense is used for?" Lu Qing continued to ask.
"I'm not sure about that." Yan shook his head and said, "The power of incense is very strange and unusual. Even in the ancient times of cultivating immortals, only a few sects were proficient in this.
However, I have heard the elders of the Lihuo Sect mention that the power of incense is very strange.
Depending on the thoughts of the person praying, it can condense into power of different natures, which is unpredictable and very difficult to defend against.
I don’t know what kind of incense power is condensed in this letter tree at the entrance of your village.”
When Lu Qing heard this, his heart moved slightly.
He activated his special powers and looked towards the tree of faith.
After a few breaths, a faint golden light of supernatural power emerged from Xin Shu's body.
At the same time, several messages also floated out.
[Spiritual Faith Tree: A tree nourished by spiritual energy and worshipped by villagers, giving rise to a spiritual tree.]
[This tree of faith has been worshipped by the villagers of Jiuli Village for many years with sincere thoughts, and has gathered a trace of incense power. ]
[The power of the incense on the Faith Tree comes from the worship of the villagers of Jiuli Village. It is closely related to Jiuli Village and can bless this land. ]
[The power of the incense on this letter tree contains the meaning of protection and peace. Tying a red string representing the identity of the villagers on it can give them a trace of luck to protect them. ]
…
When Lu Qing read the message that appeared on the letter tree, surprise appeared in his eyes.
At the same time, I also understand why the power of the incense in the tree of faith is condensed.
Just now "Yan" said that the power of incense is only condensed from pure thoughts and faith.
The Faith Tree is a tree under which the villagers of Jiuli Village pray for peace.
Every villager in Jiuli Village ties a red string on the branches when they go out, and takes it off when they come back.
This rule has never changed for decades.
It can be said that the faith tree embodies the purest wishes of the villagers of Jiuli Village to pray for peace and protect their loved ones.
That is why the power of incense with protective power is gathered today.
In other words, from now on, when the villagers go out, they just need to tie a red rope on the tree.
It’s no longer just praying for peace.
Instead, you will truly receive the blessing of the tree of faith, and be blessed with a hint of good fortune.
So that when you are outside, everything will go smoothly, and you can turn misfortune into good fortune and have a safe journey.
"Ah Qing, is there something wrong with this letter tree?"
Uncle Zhang saw Lu Qing staring at Xinshu and asked worriedly.
Other villagers also looked at Lu Qing with concern, even the children were no exception.
The letter tree has a special status in Jiuli Village, and almost all villagers have a special affection for it.
For those who are younger, many of their childhoods were spent under the letter tree.
Therefore, many villagers have been warned since childhood not to climb or damage the trees.
So everyone is very concerned about its changes.
Looking at the villagers' concerned eyes, Lu Qing smiled.
"Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the letter tree. On the contrary, its changes are a good thing."
"It's a good thing. What good thing?" an old man asked immediately.
“Now the world has undergone some changes. This letter tree has grown for so many years and absorbed the essence of heaven and earth. In addition, the village often worships it.
Now it has developed a hint of spirituality and has become a real spiritual tree.
In the future, as long as we take good care of it, it will be able to better protect the peace of our village."
Lu Qing tried his best to explain things in a way that everyone could understand.
Sure enough, everyone was shocked after hearing that the faith tree was psychic.
"The tree of faith is psychic?"
"It has developed spirituality, which means that the letter tree can hear us talking?"
"Good, this is great news!"
After the shock, joy came.
Although everyone was not very clear about what the spiritual power of the faith tree meant, they could still understand what Lu Qing said about the faith tree being able to better protect the village.
Suddenly, a villager grabbed the ear of his youngest son:
"You little brat, did you hear what Ah Qing said? Don't be rude to the letter tree again. If I see you climbing up the letter tree like you did this morning, I will break your legs!"
"Yes, and you, kid. I saw it the day before yesterday. You dared to break the branches of the letter tree. If you dare to do that again, I will beat you to death!"
Another villager also pinched his son's ears.
When the other villagers heard this, they also started scolding their own children.
All of a sudden, the sound of little kids begging for mercy was everywhere.
