I have a magical tree

Xu Dao panted heavily, and the thick black blood on the blade could not be washed away even by the heavy rain.

There were too many monsters, and the outside of the city tonight was simply a paradise for monsters.

He had never stopped since he left the city. Even though many monsters were of average strength, they could not withstand too many of them. At this time, his hand holding the knife was numb.

This was only the first day. I couldn't imagine how many monsters would appear here in a few days.

Xu Dao absorbed the weird aura of the monster in front of him and continued to the next place.

Along the way, he had seen too many corpses, and countless refugees died in the weird disaster tonight. Even if there were monsters that harmed people in the past, the number was limited after all, and the number of deaths was not much compared to this huge group of refugees.

Later, he went out of the city every night to hunt, so the number of casualties of refugees was always within a controllable range, but it was not possible tonight. There were too many people, and even if Xu Dao wanted to save them, he was unable to do so.

"This damn world!" Xu Dao cursed in a low voice, but his voice was completely covered by the rumbling rain, and no one could hear it except himself.

Watching these refugees being hunted and eaten by monsters like pigs and dogs, even if he claimed to be accustomed to death, he couldn't help but feel sympathetic! If he didn't have the bronze giant tree and didn't practice martial arts, he, his mother, and his younger sister wouldn't be much better than them.

The more he thought about it, the more murderous he became. Even the heavy rain couldn't extinguish the anger in his heart, and the fatigue on his body was suppressed by him.

Not until dawn, not until the knife is put away!

...

In the early morning, A Bao opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, and his mind was suddenly a little confused.

Looking down at the soft bed under him, the folded new clothes placed beside him, and the white cat slave curled up at the end of the bed to sleep.

She finally realized that this was no longer the clinic in the outer square, but the home of Lord Xu in the inner square.

Then, her mind began to flash back to what happened yesterday, and as she thought about it, an ugly and silly smile appeared on her face.

However, she herself could not see these things. A Bao lifted her foot and lifted the sleeping raccoon slave up a foot high.

The white raccoon slave looked back at his suddenly crazy master with a confused face, and had no idea what had happened.

A Bao put on her clothes. The new clothes were particularly soft, but she felt uncomfortable wearing them, so she took them off again, and then found the bag of old clothes she brought in the closet next to her.

It turned out that they were not thrown away! A Bao breathed a sigh of relief. After changing into old clothes, she felt comfortable all over.

What should she do next? She sat on the couch in a daze for a long time, thinking for a long time, but she couldn't think of anything.

Cook? She couldn't cook the meals she had last night, and clean up? She didn't even know where the tools were.

The raccoon, who had already lain down again and was about to continue sleeping, probably saw Abao sitting there in a daze, so he stood up and came to her side, called out sweetly twice, and was about to jump on her lap.

But the result was the same as before, his body was still in the air when he was swept to the ground by a slap. How could a raccoon who should catch mice and protect the house climb on people at any time?

The raccoon was not disappointed, and turned around and left.

And Abao finally got up and pushed open the door.

Then, she saw Xu Dao moved a chair, sat under the eaves, lying on his back, and seemed to be sleeping. But for some reason, Xu Dao at this time, his face was pale, almost bloodless, and there was a faint evil spirit around him.

Abao looked at this scene and felt inexplicably flustered, and subconsciously avoided his eyes.

But Xu Dao, who had already felt the gaze, had already opened his eyes.

"How did you sleep?" Xu Dao's voice was a little hoarse.

Abao nodded quickly.

"That's good. Now that you're up, go wash up. After washing your face, go to the kitchen to help my mother."

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Dao finished speaking, the door of the east wing was pushed open. Liu came out first. Xu Lu rubbed her eyes and leaned against the door frame, obviously not awake yet.

"Why doesn't the rain stop?" Liu glanced at the yard. At this time, a layer of water had accumulated in the yard. The rainwater gathered on the tiles flowed down from the eaves, making a sound like a waterfall.

The sky seemed to be leaking!

And Xu Dao, who had rested for a while and whose face gradually became rosy, finally stood up from the chair.

Today, he stayed outside the city until dawn before entering the city. He didn't know how many monsters he had killed, and he forgot how many kinds he had killed. Anyway, there were those he knew, those he didn't know, those he had seen, and those he hadn't seen. As long as he met them, he would be chopped with a knife.

This was the first time he felt sleepiness and fatigue so clearly since he started practicing. This kind of exhaustion is both physical and spiritual.

But the harvest is also huge. Among the 206 bones in the body, the marrow of dozens of bones has been refined.

In those bones that have been refined, the marrow is like molten gold, shining brightly.

There is a saying that is specifically used to describe the internal scene of a warrior after reaching the fifth level.

Melting gold is marrow, jade is carved into bones, and mercury is blood and iron is made into tendons.

Now he roughly knows the meaning of this sentence, which is indeed appropriate.

Although he doesn't know what the inside of other fifth-level warriors is like, his body is indeed the same as described in this sentence.

Marrow is like gold and water, bones are like jade, blood is like mercury, and tendons are like iron. If you can meet all these four requirements, it means that you have reached the peak of the fifth level.

He is still far from this step. There are still more than a hundred pieces of bone marrow that have not been tempered. The blood has not been transfused and cannot be as mercury as blood, but the other two are already satisfied.

But the improvement of martial arts is still secondary. What makes him most happy is that he has finally collected enough strange energy to light up the second trunk.

At this time, the second branch has been lit, but he has not yet received the second magical power.

Joy and worry coexist. On one hand, he thought that as long as it is a magical power, he would be happy no matter what it is, but on the other hand, he couldn't help thinking that if this magical power can solve his problems, it would be even better!

This is what he really needs now!

Xu Dao raised his head and watched the water from the eaves merge into a turbulent stream and flow into the yard. He watched A Bao clumsily and stiffly help A Niang to light the fire and add firewood. He watched Xiao Mei hug Li Nu heartlessly, leaning against the door sill, closing her eyes and pretending to sleep.

"Huh!" Master Xu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. It was really unreasonable. Why worry about gains and losses? Even if the magical power this time is not what he wants, so what? If not, then chop him up a few more times!

Thinking of this, Xu Dao's mind sank into the Niwan Palace, and he looked up at the bronze giant tree towering into the endless void.

His mind moved, and then the magical fruit on the second branch suddenly fell down and merged into his body.
