The End of the Extreme Dao: I Planted a Sacred Tree and Gained Immortality

Chapter 36 Advancement
The sun was setting and a cool breeze began to blow in the air.

Soon, it got dark.

Huo Ying paced back and forth in the room, with ten harpoons filled with arrows ready beside him.

This was the first time he looked forward to the night coming.

Thick fog filled the air.

The fire in the house suddenly burned faster.

Different from the previous nights.

Tonight, the black fog weighs heavily on every corner like a rock.

Huo Ying actually felt a slight difficulty in breathing.

Especially the three mummies outside the window. Huo Ying had placed them very close to them, but now they were starting to blur.

Huo Ying spread out his hands, and his palms were faintly covered with a layer of fine frost.

"How is it possible that the sun was blazing in the morning and it frosted in the evening?"

Huo Ning quickly lit the rocket, estimated the direction in which he was to place the mummy, and shot the wolf-tooth arrow.

Missed the shot.

The rocket fired into the air, but the flames briefly burned through the black mist.

Huo Ying saw the mummy shaking, and there were even flickering outlines around the mummy, as if someone was hurriedly circling around the mummy.

"Here it comes, this must be the corpse ghost!"

Huo Ying lit the rocket again and was about to shoot when he felt a sudden pain in his head.

Roar!
In the silent night, a dull roar was heard from afar. The sound directly penetrated Huo Ying's eardrums, making his whole face red like a prawn cooked in water.

It's a mental shock!
Huo Ying held onto the windowsill, his heart beating wildly.

The birthmark on his palm began to heat up, and Huo Ying felt that a monster had rushed into the darkness, looking for him.

"Crap, it's that thing in the factory. It can actually come out at night!"

Roar!
There was another roar, but this time it was not a heavy, muffled roar, but rather very loud and sharp.

The temperature of the birthmark on Huo Ying's palm cooled down instantly.

There is also a monster.

Huo Ying sensed that this sharp cry was full of expulsion, as if warning the monster in the factory.

"One is enough to kill me, but there are two!"

Huo Ying took a deep breath, aimed at the black fog outside, and fired another rocket.

The arrow missed the target, and the mummies actually moved by themselves. With the help of the light from the rocket, Huo Ying saw the three mummies moving slowly and rubbing against each other.

They are all moving, proving that all three corpses are possessed by corpse ghosts!

Huo Ying was a little excited. His experiment was successful. As long as he burned the corpses and shadows, the sacred tree could be advanced.

Roar!
There was another muffled roar, and this time, there was a hint of concession in the roar. There was no response from the sharp voice on the other end. The next second, Huo Ying's palm became hotter and hotter, and the birthmark began to change.

Originally there were only fangs, but now an outline appeared. The outline vaguely resembled a face, and a tightly closed eye slowly appeared on the face. Huo Ying felt that the eye would open in the next second and see him.

Click.

Inside the room, a Yang stone broke.

But all the Yang stones that were built into a stove began to glow red and hot. Nearly a hundred Yang stones gathered together and scattered a soft light, helping Huo Ying to drive away the birthmark on his palm.

Click, click.

The sound of the Yang Stone shattering was endless, the birthmark shrank and expanded, and the tightly closed eye appeared and disappeared. Huo Ying had enough Yang Stone, and that eye could not open.

Wood Release: Grafting Technique.

Huo Ying reached out and touched the window. Immediately, more than a dozen poplar trees grew out from the window template, spreading out one by one.

rocket.

This time, Huo Ying did not shoot at the mummy, but ignited the spreading wooden sticks.

The window was finally illuminated by the fire. The three mummies were colliding with each other, as if they wanted to break the poplar wood and break free from the wooden prison. Even under the cover of the black fog, Huo Ying didn't hear any sound.

The wooden sticks slowly extended until they reached the three mummies. Feeling the flames, the mummies wanted to escape, but the mummies created by Huo Ying using Wood Release had stuck the joints of the three corpses too tightly. After the corpse ghosts parasitized them, they fell into the trap and had no way to release their own power.

Bang bang bang.

Huo Ying saw the location clearly and shot one burning wolf-tooth arrow after another, using wooden sticks as firewood and rockets as fuel. In an instant, fire surrounded the three mummies.

hum.

Thousands of flying insects seemed to have heard the mummy's cry for help and flew towards the fire. However, with such a large amount of poplar wood as fuel, the flying insects not only failed to extinguish the flames, but instead became fuel for the flames.

A burning smell came out.

The three bodies in the mummy melted and gray shadows emerged.

The next second, all the wood formed a huge cocoon under Huo Ying's control, trapping the three gray shadows in the flames.

"Huo Ying!"

Huo Ying heard someone calling his name.

It's the palm.

The sound seemed to come from the birthmark on the palm of his hand.

The eye on the birthmark was about to open, and there seemed to be an eyeball moving constantly under the eyelids.

Roar!
A roar penetrated into Huo Ying's mind.

The world disappeared from Huo Ying's sight, and a hand appeared in front of Huo Ying.

His hands were covered with abscesses and tumors, and each tumor contained a twitching eyeball.

These eyeballs can actually speak, and the sound made by each eyeball is Huo Ying's name.

"Huo Ying, Huo Ying, Huo Ying."

"I found you."

The palm pressed against Huo Ying's face. Huo Ying could not feel his body and could only watch the palm getting closer and closer to him.

Since you can't avoid it, just close your eyes.

Concentrating his consciousness, Huo Ying looked at the sacred tree in his mind.

[Progress: 83%]

[Progress: 93%]

[Progress: 100%]

[Sacred Tree (Rooting Stage)]

[Progress: 0.3%]

The seeds of the sacred tree in Huo Ying's mind suddenly sprouted, and the roots were like a curled-up woman stretching her waist. Each root was pure white and kept spreading in Huo Ying's consciousness space.

[Range: 100 km]

[Sacred Tree Shelter:]

【Chakra (medium), Wood Style (medium), Earth Style (medium), Lightning Style (medium), Strong Body (beginner), Strong Spirit (weak)】

Huo Ying's body suddenly became fuller and expanded visibly. His height jumped to 1.85 meters. His shoulders, neck and even exposed forearms became more angular and full of lines.

The air columns in Huo Ying's body also began to expand rapidly. Seven, eight, ten... air columns kept appearing and filled Huo Ying's dantian. Then, the air columns absorbed each other and became a whole. Mist slowly appeared in Huo Ying's dantian. Gradually, the air columns disappeared and turned into a bay of lake water.

A flash of golden lightning illuminated Huo Ying's world of consciousness.

Huo Ying suddenly found that he could move. The terrifying big hand suddenly disappeared, and Huo Ying struggled out of the dark spiritual world.

Roar!
In the distance, an angry growl was heard, and Huo Ying could faintly hear the monster's panting right next to his ear.

Suddenly, a hint of paleness appeared on the horizon.

Huo Ying thought only one second had passed, but he didn't know that a whole night had passed.

The monster's panting stopped and the sky brightened.
