I have a magical tree

Yanghe County has a city wall, and it is quite high, nearly two meters, and there are county soldiers stationed on it at all times, patrolling every half an hour.

At several magic array nodes, the defense is even more strict, and it is jointly guarded by the Demon Suppression Department and the county soldiers. Because this magic array is the foundation of Yanghe County, once it is destroyed, it is extremely difficult to repair. Only people from the capital can set up such a magic array that covers the entire city.

Even Huang Ji from the Demon Suppression Department, although he knows some knowledge of magic arrays, can only maintain and repair it. He can't set it up from scratch.

This kind of magic array is not something that one person can set up.

This magic array has no great effect on the protection of warriors and cultivators. It targets monsters. The magic array can release a special breath that makes monsters feel disgusted, so that most monsters can be driven away.

In addition, it can also drive the Yin evil spirit in the city out of the city. Monsters, in addition to liking to eat people, like Yin evil breath the most.

If the Yin evil breath is too strong, monsters and monsters will be born.

As for the lethality of this magic array to monsters, it can be ignored. It can't even kill some weak monsters.

Yanghe County is just a county after all, far inferior to the capital city. The magic array can't be too advanced.

It is said that the magic array of the capital city will seriously injure low-level monsters if they are not killed.

Xu Dao did not choose to cross the city wall directly. Although he could do it, it was too rampant. What if there was a master patrolling on the top of the city?

He walked through the underground drainage ditch, which can lead directly to the outside of the city. Only now that he has reached the seventh level, he dares to walk through here.

The underground tunnel has not seen the sun for many years. It is the place with the most concentrated Yinsha Qi in the city, so it is also very easy to breed monsters. If you don't reach a certain level, you don't dare to go down.

Entering the sewer, Xu Dao shuddered involuntarily. This is because of the Yinsha Qi. He felt the same way when he first left the city.

This sewer is wider than he imagined. He didn't have to bend down when walking in it, but the smell was a bit unpleasant.

The whole process was very smooth except that it felt a bit cold, and he didn't encounter any monsters.

Xu Dao was a little depressed. When he didn't want to encounter monsters, this thing would appear every day. When he wanted to encounter it now, he couldn't find it. His luck seemed to be really bad!

Coming out of a drainage outlet, he looked around and was already outside the city. Not far away were the low and dilapidated huts built by the refugees.

Some huts didn't even have doors. With his strong eyesight, he could see many people lying naked on the ground sleeping because of the hot weather.

He could vaguely see the jagged ribs of the refugees. If it weren't for the regular rise and fall of their abdomens, he would have thought they were all corpses.

These refugees lacked food, and the only way to relieve their hunger was to go to bed early. If they didn't go to bed early, they would get hungry faster.

In fact, it is very simple to identify the hungry people. These hungry people are often skinny in other parts of their bodies, but their stomachs are bulging. However, what is in their stomachs is not food, but swollen due to severe lack of nutrition.

Xu Dao walked through them at a very fast speed, but he did not alarm anyone. These people, whether in their mental state or strength, could not detect Xu Dao's existence.

But soon, Xu Dao could not help but frown. He had searched a shantytown, but found nothing. Not to mention seeing weirdness, there was not even a trace of breath.

Then, Xu Dao searched several shantytowns in succession, but still found nothing, as if those monsters suddenly disappeared.

The area outside the city is still very large. It was already an hour later when Xu Dao visited all the shantytowns.

But now Xu Dao is a little doubtful about his life. His luck is too bad. He has not found even a hair until now!

"Wait a little longer. If we don't find anything, we can only wait until tomorrow!"

Xu Dao was somewhat helpless. He could only find a hidden place, sit cross-legged and meditate, and practice Qi training.

Until the early morning, it was about to dawn in an hour, but there was still no movement here.

Xu Dao returned to the city along the sewer with disappointment. It seemed that he would work in vain this night.

"Hmm?" Xu Dao, who was walking in the outer courtyard, suddenly stopped. A subtle sucking and chewing sound came into Xu Dao's ears.

Xu Dao looked up at the sky. Could someone have a meal at this time?

He looked deep and directly opened the martial arts golden pupil and looked into a small courtyard nearby.

"Damn, finally... found it!"

Xu Dao jumped and entered the small courtyard.

One of the houses facing the courtyard gate had its door open. On the bed, several figures were lying on their backs, motionless. A black shadow the size of a cat or dog was entrenched on the head of one of the corpses.

The man's eyeballs had been devoured, and the skin and flesh on his face had been licked off, leaving only white bones. A thin long tongue was following the man's eye sockets, deep into his head, sucking the brain.

"Brain-eating ghost!"

The brain-eating ghost is not big, covered with black hair, but has a cruel personality. When it harms people, it will first inject a special toxin into the prey, making the person sober but unable to move, and then start from the skin and flesh on the face, licking it inch by inch, then eating the eyeballs, and finally sucking the brain as a main meal.

Xu Dao frowned, because all four people in this family had been killed.

The brain-eating ghost did not notice Xu Dao's arrival, and continued to enjoy the food.

Then a hand reached out from behind like an iron clamp, easily grasping the neck of the brain-eating ghost, and the whole process was silent!

The brain-eating ghost was not strong, belonging to the very weak kind of demon ghost. With Xu Dao's strength, he didn't need a sword at all.

Crack!

With a light sound, the neck of the brain-eating ghost was easily crushed by Xu Dao. This was not the end. Xu Dao twisted his hands and twisted the body of the brain-eating ghost into a twist. When the ghost thing was completely silent, he threw it to the ground.

A stream of strange energy had been absorbed by him, but he was a little disappointed in both quantity and quality. This little bit of strange energy was not enough for him to break through the sixth level.

Breaking through from the seventh level to the sixth level is to break through from the lower three realms to the middle three realms, which is much more difficult than breaking through the general realm.

Of course, after the breakthrough, the strength will also be greatly improved.

There will be about two or three more strange energy like today.

It seems that I have to come out a few more times later.

Today, he was still unlucky and only encountered this one. If he could encounter two or three, he might have broken through directly.

If he didn't rely on the help of the strange energy and the bronze giant tree, and only relied on his own practice, it would take him more than a month to break through the sixth level.

After all, it was a breakthrough at a big level, and this speed was already very fast. Many people, even if they have reached the peak of the seventh level, will be stuck in this realm for a year or two.

And more people, due to insufficient talent and insufficient accumulation, are afraid that they will not be able to break through in their lifetime.
