Chapter 134 The Dao-Destroying Tree

When Shen Qingluo heard this, he immediately asked the key point: "What about the attack it sends out? Will it cause damage?"

Jingshi Lihuo said with some hesitation: "It shouldn't happen under normal circumstances, but we can't rule out the possibility. If it appears again and attacks, the owner can try to use defensive treasures to resist it. If it can cause damage, then the treasures will naturally reaction."

"Okay, I see."

Shen Qingluo continued walking towards the river.

Not long after, the strange shadow appeared out of thin air again.

This time it was not blocking the way ahead, but appearing quietly behind him.

Shen Qingluo suddenly felt a chill. It takes a certain amount of time to activate the magical weapon. She immediately took out the most suitable spiritual weapon, the Qiankun Umbrella.

While waving his sleeves, a lavender umbrella appeared in front of him. Holding the handle of the umbrella, his spiritual power was running, and it was instantly activated.

A layer of lavender light instantly emerged from the umbrella. After the precious umbrella was opened, the light shrouded down, firmly protecting the girl in black clothes.

Shen Qingluo has not used this treasure since its defense was broken in the third-order killing formation at the Yin Corpse Sect branch station outside Duanlingyuan.

Now that it's activated again, it's obvious that its power has improved a lot.

The reason is that she made a breakthrough in cultivation and the Qiankun Umbrella was promoted to a higher level.

The moment the defense was formed, there was a loud bang behind him.

A huge force hit the lavender defensive aperture, and it was the strange shadow that launched the attack.

The moment it appeared, Jingshi Lihuo attacked it. However, just like the previous sword light, the attack failed. The flames directly penetrated the shadow without causing any damage to it.

Facts have proved that external attacks are ineffective against shadows, but shadow attacks can directly cause damage.

Shen Qingluo has discovered this problem now and can only focus on defense.

Fortunately, although the shadow can attack her, its power is not very strong, and the Qiankun Umbrella can completely block it.

She was within the defensive aperture, always observing the movement of the shadow. As time passed, she noticed that when the shadow drifted, it always remained half a foot above the ground.

Even if it suddenly disappears and reappears, it is still half a foot above the ground.

Discovering this, Shen Qingluo tapped his toes and immediately flew into the air. Sure enough, the shadow did not catch up and just lingered in place, seemingly losing its target.

After entering Duyou River, she chose to walk on foot for the purpose of searching for people and treasures. She never thought that she would be attacked because of this.

For a moment, Shen Qingluo was dumbfounded.

At this moment, the defense of the Qiankun Umbrella is still there. For her now, maintaining the operation of the best spiritual weapon does not consume much spiritual power at all, so even if it is temporarily safe, the defense has not been removed.

Shen Qingluo flew forward at a slow speed. After a while, Shen Qingluo spotted another shadow, which was not the same as the previous one.

She gradually understood that when a monk entered this place and got lost, he was probably affected by a shadow of unknown origin, causing hallucinations, spinning around in a certain area, or being further attacked by the shadow and falling directly.

No matter which situation you belong to, you are stuck here.

Shen Qingluo observed the movement of the shadow below while thinking about its possible origin.

At this time, she was gradually approaching the corrosive river water. The water flow turned yellow and looked extremely turbid. In the distance, a stone bridge caught her attention.

With a sweep of his consciousness, he could see the word "Duyou" engraved on the bridge.

At the end of the stone bridge, there is a towering ancient tree that is as thick as ten people can hug it. Shen Qingluo cannot tell what species it is. As for the age of the tree, it is at least one hundred thousand years old. The specific year cannot be estimated.

There are no living creatures in the river, but there are ancient trees that are more than 100,000 years old beside the river bank, and apart from this one, no other plants can be seen.

This was obviously not normal. Shen Qingluo thought for a moment, waved his sleeves and used a spiritual power, and blasted it towards the ancient tree.

This move was just a test, she wanted to see if there would be any abnormality.

The ancient wood was motionless, but a bright yellow leaf fell to the ground.

The moment it touched the ground, the leaves quickly faded into shadows that Shen Qingluo had met several times.

Witnessing this scene with her own eyes, there was a rare and obvious look of surprise on her face.

She never thought that those shadows were actually the fallen leaves of this ancient tree!
Because he had been attacked before, judging from the power, Phantom's strength was almost equivalent to that of an ordinary peak foundation-building monk.

Is this a coincidence, or do those shadows become stronger when they are strong and weak when they are weak?
Also, just fallen leaves have such power, where does this ancient tree come from?
As his thoughts raced, Shen Qingluo suddenly remembered that the original book had specifically mentioned two spiritual plants from ancient times. The first was the tree of enlightenment and the second was the tree of destruction.

Below the Immortal Realm, in all the heavens and realms, these two kinds of spiritual plants exist in every realm, and they are unique in their respective worlds.

The tree of enlightenment has a total of ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine enlightenment leaves on the tree. Every time one falls, another one will be formed at the same time.

If a monk can get the Enlightenment Leaf, if he is lucky, he can learn rare Taoism from it and his strength will greatly increase.

As for the Dao-destroying tree, all the Dao-destroying leaves on the tree add up to ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine. No matter how many leaves fall, the total number remains the same.

Unlike the Enlightenment Leaves, which can help monks achieve good fortune, the Dao-Destroying Leaves can only bring negative effects, and can be said to be the enemy of all those who seek immortality.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingluo turned his attention to the towering ancient trees again.

His spiritual consciousness slowly swept over and counted them carefully. The total number of leaves happened to be ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

With such a coincidental number, coupled with the strange shadows formed by the fallen leaves, Shen Qingluo was now certain that the tree in front of him was the rumored Dao-Destroying Tree!
The Tree of Enlightenment and the Tree of Destruction are both closely related to the origin of the world. With the origin of the world protecting them, it is impossible to destroy them. Even if they are burned by strange fire, they will not have the slightest effect.

Unless the source of the world is exhausted, even the most powerful person cannot do this, and once the source is exhausted, the world will inevitably be destroyed.

Not to mention that Shen Qingluo didn't have the ability at all. Even if she could really do it, she wouldn't be able to do it.

The current situation is very bad for her.

Her purpose of this trip was to find the Shui Lingzhu and to rescue You Ling.

Since the Dao-Destroying Tree appeared here, You Ling was probably affected by it and was trapped in his own illusion by a certain Dao-Destroying Leaf.

Once you fall into this kind of hallucination, you will turn into a state of nothingness and be completely isolated from the outside world. Others will not be able to sense its existence at all, and the person who falls into the hallucination will not be able to hear any sounds from the outside world.

In other words, even if You Ling is in front of Shen Qingluo right now, she can't see him.

If you are unable to break away from the hallucination or are attacked and die directly within the hallucination, you will be trapped inside forever and eventually turn into the nutrients of the Dao-Destroying Tree. The fallen golden elixir of the Yin Corpse Sect falls into the latter situation.
For a moment, Shen Qingluo felt powerless in his heart, but he quickly regained his composure.

It all depends on people, she doesn't believe there is nothing she can do!
