Card: I Rebuild Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization in Another World

Chapter 49 The Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon
Xie Yuchen calmly said, "I don't know, but my sister is definitely alright!"

Rumble!
The second bolt of lightning struck!

The lightning struck and destroyed Xie Yuwei's house.

"My God! What's going on? Has Sister Wei angered the heavens?"

"I don't know, I don't even know if she's dead!"

The third bolt of lightning struck!

After the third bolt of lightning struck, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed.

The dark clouds have dispersed!

"The barrier has been restored!"

The village's protective barrier was once again placed over Nanwen Village, and the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is Sister Wei alright?"

Just as everyone was about to enter Xie Yuwei's room to check on her, a green light shot out from her room and entered the ground in the yard.

While everyone was still confused, Xie Yuwei walked out of the room with bright eyes.

"Sister Wei, what's going on?"

Xie Yuwei did not answer the questions of the crowd. She walked into the yard and watched the green light grow from the soil.

Everyone followed her gaze and looked into the courtyard.

After the green light emerged from the soil, everyone realized that it was a green sprout.

The green sprout gradually grew into a small tree.

The sapling grows into a big tree—

"What is this?" the villagers asked in surprise.

When the tree grew into a towering giant, the villagers stood in Xie Yuwei's courtyard and looked up at the branches. The trunk seemed to reach straight into the clouds, and the branches that stretched out almost covered the entire Nanwen Village.

"what is this?"

The villagers were terrified.

Xie Huai'an also stood in the crowd. Looking at the towering tree that reached into the clouds, he said incredulously, "These are cards!"

what?
Everyone stared in disbelief at the suddenly appearing tree before them. This incredibly realistic tree was actually a card?
The tree firmly planted its roots and instantly unleashed a powerful pressure.

The oppressive aura swept across the mountains surrounding Nanwen Village, causing the nearby low-level magical beasts to tremble in fear.

The villagers felt a chill run down their spines. They stared at the large tree in front of them in fear, as if it were a living thing.

Their senses were correct; this was a ten-thousand-year-old tree spirit.

Xie Yuwei stood at the foot of the tree, proudly looking at the towering tree, and said, "This is a high-level card, the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon!"

"The tree spirit has a soul; it can protect our Nanwen Village. As long as it is here, the nearby monsters will no longer attack the village."

The villagers stirred; was this a premium card?
With this tree here, Nanwen Village will no longer be afraid of being attacked by monsters.

Knowing the purpose of the tree spirit, everyone was very excited.

The card spirit masters of Nanwen Village were even more shocked.

If this ancient tree spirit is a high-level card, has Sister Wei already advanced to become a high-level card spirit master?
Has a high-level card spirit master emerged from their village?
Before Xie Yuwei could finish shocking everyone, she introduced another function of the tree demon: "The tree demon has extraordinary power. As long as you ask the tree demon for a leaf, that leaf can protect you."

"The leaf's demonic power can last for twelve hours. As long as you carry the leaf with you, it can protect you from demonic beasts no matter where you go."

One quick-witted villager eagerly asked, "If I carry the tree spirit's leaf with me, can I go to town by myself?"

As long as he returns within twelve hours, he won't have to worry about being attacked by magical beasts. Xie Yuwei looked at him approvingly: "That's right. As long as you carry the tree spirit's leaves, no matter where you go, magical beasts below the high level won't be able to harm you."

Everyone was very excited and looked up at the tree branch, hoping to get a leaf.

This towering tree is so tall that when people look up at it, they feel as if it is growing in the sky, and if they try to pluck a leaf from it, they can't reach it at all.

Everyone looked at Xie Yuwei, wondering how they could get the leaves.
Xie Yuwei said to them, "The tree spirit has a soul. As long as you pray sincerely, it will send leaves to you."

Upon hearing this, the villagers clasped their hands together and prayed to the tree spirit for a leaf.

The tree seemed to sense their sincerity, and a few leaves, glowing with green light, slowly drifted down.

"We got it! We got it! Look, a few glowing leaves are floating down!" the crowd shouted excitedly.

The leaves drifted down and landed steadily in the hands of the villagers.

Upon seeing this, everyone prayed to the tree spirit.

The tree spirit will bestow its leaves upon them as long as it senses their sincerity.

Some villagers who couldn't get the leaves they begged for tried to snatch the falling leaves, but the leaves seemed to recognize their owner, shaking off the snatchers and landing precisely in the hands of the beggars.

Xie Yuwei said to the villagers who wanted to snatch the leaves, "This ancient tree demon is alive. If you anger it, it will lash you out."

Only then did everyone look at the big tree with apprehension.

When Xie Yuwei designed this card, in order to prevent the tree spirit from harming people, she set a restriction on the tree spirit: it could not kill the villagers of Nanwen Village without cause.

However, if the villagers are foolish enough to provoke it, they will still be punished.

As long as it doesn't kill you, it can whip you until you're in excruciating pain.

The owner who activated this card is Xie Yuwei, who can control all of its divine thoughts through the card.

Everything the tree spirit senses can be fed back into Jie Yuwei's mind.

For example, if the tree spirit senses that a magical beast is hunting for food 10 kilometers away from the back mountain, Jie Yuwei can also 'see' that magical beast is active through the tree spirit's senses.

For example, when the tree spirit sensed that there were dozens of thousand-year-old spiritual plants deep in the mountains, Jie Yuwei accurately knew their locations through the tree spirit's perception.

The Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Spirit is a high-level card, and maintaining its current state requires a significant amount of spiritual energy.

Xie Yuwei couldn't possibly keep expending her spiritual power to maintain its existence just so it could stay outside.

To solve this problem, Jie Yuwei inscribed a spirit-gathering array in the heart of the tree.

This spirit-gathering array can automatically absorb nearby spiritual energy for its own use.

Nanwen Village is surrounded by mountains and forests, with abundant spiritual energy, making it very suitable for the absorption of spiritual energy by the spirit-gathering array.

With this spirit-gathering array, Jie Yuwei no longer needs to personally generate spiritual power to maintain the tree demon; it can be self-sufficient.

As long as the spirit-gathering array in the tree's core remains intact, this ancient tree demon can continue to exist.

The villagers were unaware of these characteristics of the cards.

They were only happy that with this ancient tree spirit, they could move around freely.

"I haven't been back to my parents' home for several years. I prayed for a leaf and received one. I'm going back to visit my parents' home right now!"

"It's getting hard to gather firewood on the back mountain. With this leaf, I'll try my luck in the deeper mountains!"

“When I went to town yesterday, I hadn’t finished buying everything. Now that I have this leaf, I can go to town for another stroll.”

The villagers were discussing the uses of the leaves.

Xie Yuwei calmly said to them, "Although the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Demon grows in my yard, it almost covers the entire Nanwen Village. It doesn't matter where you pray for leaves."
