I have a magical tree

Xu Dao really has no way to deal with the soul. To be honest, Xu Dao's soul can be so powerful now, all thanks to the bronze giant tree.

He has been feeding and refining since he was a child, and it has been more than ten years since then, and it has reached its current scale. Since he started practicing, the advancement and breakthrough of martial arts and Qi training can also make the soul grow.

But this speed is still too slow compared to the speed of his martial arts cultivation.

The feeding of the bronze giant tree is more like subtle influence, step by step, not as direct and rapid as martial arts cultivation, so the speed is not too fast.

Of course, Xu Dao's "not too fast" is also relative to himself, or compared to his expectations.

If you really compare it with other people, the speed is also extremely fast. At least he has growth every day. Although it is not much in a single day, it is also extremely terrifying when accumulated day by day.

It is extremely difficult for others to improve their souls. Forget about warriors. Below the Grandmaster, there is no need to talk about souls, because most people do not need to talk about it, they are really pitifully weak.

People like Ge Lao and Wang Lao are called gifted.

For Qigong practitioners, the importance of the soul is self-evident. Those Qigong practitioners do whatever it takes to improve their spirituality, even eating people. What is the purpose? It is to improve the power of the soul.

The so-called spirituality is the external manifestation of the soul, and it is not wrong to say that it is the soul.

Xu Dao's spiritual light has exceeded ten feet, which is a height that others cannot reach in their lifetime. I am afraid that those who are in the fourth and fifth stages of Qigong are far inferior.

People must learn to be content. Xu Dao naturally understands this truth, but understanding the truth does not mean that he does not desire a way to quickly improve the soul.

Xu Dao cut off the distracting thoughts in his heart and stepped into Keling Village.

Speaking of which, it was his first time to enter a township. Although Yanghe County was down and out, it was still a county town.

Then he went directly to the prefecture city. He knew very little about how the people in the township survived and how to defend against monsters. Even some of the things he knew were all from books.

In towns and villages, people live together and there is no scattered situation. After all, there is the threat of monsters, and living in groups is the best way to ensure survival and share danger.

However, there are no protective arrays in villages and towns. The world is so big that there are too many villages and towns to count, and they often migrate, merge, and disappear. Protective arrays are not suitable for villages and towns at all.

The construction cost is high, and the maintenance cost is high. A village or a town is simply unable to maintain it. Sometimes the people and assets of a village are not as valuable as a magic array, so the protective array can only be arranged at the level of a state, county, or county.

In this way, if villages and towns want to resist monsters, they can only find another way - the ancestral hall!

In the ancestral hall, the practice of worshipping family gods to protect the clan has been passed down for a long time. I am afraid that it started not long after the birth of the human tribe.

Then this method has been passed down to this day, but after the strange changes in the world, this method has also changed. The so-called family gods are better said to be family ghosts!

The strange beings that the people raise through offering sacrifices to the family gods, through various sacrifices, including blood sacrifices, will retain a certain degree of rationality towards their relatives and friends in their lifetime.

This kind of strange beings that are artificially raised are not very intelligent, and they will retain very limited goodwill towards people they were familiar with in their lifetime, so there is room for use.

These beings will regard the entire village as their own territory, turning it into a kind of existence similar to the strange realm. Once there is a strange invasion, they will resist. Moreover, the existence of this strange realm is also a disguise for the village itself.

In this way, the people in the village can survive in it.

There are naturally many problems in doing this. First of all, those so-called family gods need to be worshipped frequently and replenished in time. Whenever an old man in the village is about to die, the coffin will be sent to the ancestral hall to complete a certain transformation and become a part of the family god.

This is not only to enhance the power of the family gods, but also to enhance the connection between the family gods and the people to a certain extent.

At the same time, living in such an environment for a long time will make the physical condition very poor, the speed of martial arts practice will be very slow, disasters and diseases will occur frequently, and sometimes children will be born with strange appearances.

Moreover, there are many stories every year that strange changes occur in the village ancestral hall, leading to the destruction of a village. That kind of thing is just a strange thing, not a god! It is extremely dangerous!

It can be said that this is a very primitive, bloody but effective method.

The people of the world use this method to survive tenaciously in such a strange world, and compete with the strange for territory and living space.

Therefore, Xu Dao’s first stop today is to go to the village ancestral hall.

Since he is here, he naturally wants to see the true face of the so-called family god.

Although he has never been to Keling Village, the location of the ancestral hall is not difficult to find, because in the entire village, the most central and most imposing house must be the ancestral hall.

There is a saying that in the village, no one will build their own house more imposing than the ancestral hall, because that is blasphemy and disrespect, and will be punished.

But before he even got close to the ancestral hall, Xu Dao couldn't help but frown. There was such a strong smell of blood and death. Although he didn't know what the village usually looked like, there was something wrong with the current situation.

This kind of death and blood smell was clearly caused by a large number of deaths in the village.

After walking a little further, Xu Dao's face changed because he saw densely packed coffins staying around the ancestral hall.

It was obvious that the ancestral hall was full and there was no more room, so they were moved to the open space outside the ancestral hall.

Those coffins, big or small, old or new, he could even feel the moisture of the wood on most of them, which were clearly rough things made in a hurry.

The inside of the coffin was emitting such a strong bloody smell, which was the smell that only people who had just died could emit, and it was different from the smell of death from old age or illness, this was clearly a sudden death!

The number of coffins made Xu Dao's heart sink, there were no less than hundreds of coffins.

So, what happened here?

Was this done by Yan Chengdao and Master Linghe?

Is this the news that the man wanted to pass on to the capital city before?

Could it be that the two of them massacred the entire village?

Xu Dao, feeling heavy, continued to escape in the darkness, constantly approaching the ancestral hall, and then here, he finally breathed a sigh of relief because he saw living people.

A large number of women and children gathered here. He saw white-haired old women, mothers holding their children, young girls with sorrow and panic, and some half-grown children who were still ignorant.

The deep crying filled the ancestral hall. Even though everyone's voice was not loud, when they gathered together, Xu Dao had the illusion of being deafened.
