Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 88: Identity and Terrifying Characteristics of the Divine Tree Anomaly

"Xu Family Sword Technique!"

Xu Cheng didn't dare to be careless and quickly used the inherited sword technique.

"Ding dang!"

The Flowing Fire Blade and Xu Cheng's long sword collided.

Ka cha!

A crisp sound of fracture came, and Xu Cheng's long sword broke directly.

With tremendous force, Xu Cheng fell to the ground.

Qin Feng's long knife, the Flowing Fire Blade, combined with the super Divine Level Five-Tigers Gate Breaking Saber, easily overwhelmed Xu Cheng with a single strike.

"Stop!"

Xu Kun's face changed drastically. He quickly drew his sword and used the Xu Family's archery technique to stab Qin Feng's heart!

However, Qin Feng used Blink and appeared five meters away!

"Blink?"

Surprise filled Xu Kun's face.

He never expected Qin Feng's speed to be so fast.

In the moment Xu Kun was stunned, Qin Feng had already arrived in front of Xu Cheng.

He reached out and grabbed Xu Cheng's neck.

"Ah!"

Xu Cheng let out a scream, and blood instantly flowed from his throat.

Xu Kun's face changed drastically, and he shouted loudly, "Stop, don't hurt my brother!"

However, Qin Feng completely ignored Xu Kun's words and exerted a little force with his hand.

"Thud!"

Xu Cheng's throat shattered, and he fell to the ground, dead on the spot.

"Brother Cheng!"

Seeing Xu Cheng lying motionless on the ground, Xu Kun's face was filled with anger.

"Kid, I'm going to kill you!"

Xu Kun shouted, his eyes turning red.

His head slowly transformed into a chicken's head.

His feet turned into chicken feet.

In just a moment, Xu Kun turned into a half-chicken Anomaly.

"Kid, give me back my brother's life!"

Xu Kun quickly rushed towards Qin Feng.

He swung his long sword towards Qin Feng.

Qin Feng didn't engage in battle with Xu Kun but quickly ran to the side.

With each step he took, he extinguished the nearby oil lamps.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Xu Kun relentlessly chased after Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng's speed was too fast, and Xu Kun couldn't catch up at all.

After a few minutes, Qin Feng extinguished the last oil lamp.

The room suddenly plunged into darkness.

"Oh no!"

Xu Kun's face changed drastically, and he quickly ran outside.

But the entire room was pitch black, and Xu Kun couldn't see the way.

"Thud!"

With a loud noise, Xu Kun crashed into a pillar.

Qin Feng swung his long knife forward, and a Saber Qi shot out, hitting Xu Kun's chicken head directly.

"Thud!"

Xu Kun's head fell to the ground.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining thirty years of lifespan!]

With Xu Kun's death, a system prompt sounded.

Looking at Xu Kun lying on the ground, Qin Feng shook his head gently.

He originally thought it would take a lot of effort to defeat Xu Kun.

But the half-chicken Anomaly had no combat power in the darkness.

With just one move, Qin Feng killed Xu Kun.

"Now that Xu Kun has been killed..."

"As long as I kill County Magistrate Cai, the over one million people in Three Harmonies County will be safe!"

Qin Feng moved quickly and rushed towards the county government office.

Qin Feng's speed was extremely fast. In just over ten minutes, he arrived outside the county government office.

"Hmm?"

At this moment, Qin Feng suddenly heard a series of clicking sounds.

He was very familiar with this sound—it was the sound of a bowstring being pulled.

"There's an ambush!"

Qin Feng's figure quickly dodged to the side.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

In the instant Qin Feng flew past, more than a dozen long arrows grazed his body and embedded themselves in the opposite wall.

Qin Feng quickly looked towards the roof of the opposite building.

He saw more than ten archers on the roof, pointing their bows and arrows at Qin Feng.

And County Magistrate Cai was standing at the forefront.

"Clap, clap, clap"

"Truly a master who killed Xu Kun!"

County Magistrate Cai applauded.

"County Magistrate Cai, how did you know so quickly that I killed Xu Kun?"

Qin Feng's eyes were filled with doubt.

"Release!"

County Magistrate Cai lightly waved his hand forward.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

More than a dozen long arrows flew towards Qin Feng.

Seeing the arrows flying towards him, Qin Feng immediately activated the Eternal Peace Wind Chasing Footsteps.

Under Qin Feng's mysterious footwork, he dodged each of the arrows.

"Great Body Technique!"

County Magistrate Cai shouted, then flew towards Qin Feng.

Seeing County Magistrate Cai approaching, Qin Feng's face was filled with joy.

If County Magistrate Cai had stayed on the rooftop, Qin Feng might have had to retreat today.

After all, there were many long arrows there.

But now that County Magistrate Cai had descended, Qin Feng could take the opportunity to fight back.

County Magistrate Cai wasted no words, he grabbed his long sword with his right hand and used his sword technique to stab at Qin Feng's heart!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

In the instant County Magistrate Cai attacked Qin Feng, a series of sounds of breaking through the air could be heard.

Countless arrows also appeared not far from Qin Feng.

Seeing these arrows and County Magistrate Cai's attack, Qin Feng did not dodge.

"Shield!"

Qin Feng shouted lightly, and a golden shield enveloped him.

"Clang!"

The shield not only blocked all the arrows, but also blocked County Magistrate Cai's long sword.

"What?"

County Magistrate Cai stood there dumbfounded when he saw Qin Feng's shield.

He never expected someone to have such martial arts.

And to be able to summon a huge shield out of thin air.

Moreover, it defended against all their attacks.

"Whoosh!"

Also in the instant County Magistrate Cai was stunned, Qin Feng threw quicklime at him.

"Ah!"

County Magistrate Cai didn't even have time to react, and all the quicklime landed on his face.

Countless quicklime even entered County Magistrate Cai's eyes.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"

Countless white smoke rose from County Magistrate Cai's face.

County Magistrate Cai fell to the ground and struggled frantically.

Watching County Magistrate Cai struggling on the ground, Qin Feng swung his flowing fire knife directly at him.

Qin Feng made two consecutive strikes, crisscrossing and blocking all of County Magistrate Cai's escape routes.

"Ah!"

County Magistrate Cai only managed to let out a scream before his head flew off his body.

[Ding, congratulations on gaining thirty years of lifespan!]

Hearing the system prompt, Qin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But it wasn't over yet.

There were still many of County Magistrate Cai's subordinates nearby.

These people exuded the aura of Anomaly.

Most likely, they had already become Pseudo-Corpse Anomalies.

Qin Feng's figure moved, quickly flying towards the archers on the roof.

"County County Magistrate is dead?"

"This person knows demonic arts!"

"Everyone, run!"

The faces of these archers changed drastically.

They never expected that the invincible County Magistrate Cai would be so easily killed.

County Magistrate Cai was no match for Qin Feng.

They naturally couldn't be Qin Feng's opponents.

One by one, these archers threw down their longbows and quickly ran towards the distance.

"Poof!"

Without any mercy, Qin Feng's flowing fire knife quickly killed these archers.

A few minutes later, all the fleeing archers were killed by Qin Feng here.

Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

In the commanding courtyard.

Qin Feng was practicing the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique in the courtyard.

Now, three days have passed since he killed County Magistrate Cai.

During these three days, Qin Feng has been practicing the Eternal Life Withered Tree Technique.

"Tap, tap, tap, tap."

At this moment, a hurried footsteps came.

"Commander Qin, all the miscellaneous tasks are ready!!"

"We can depart for Soft Wind Mountain!"

Xiao Ma quickly reported.

"Alright, let's go!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly.

"Commander Qin, please!"

Xiao Ma said respectfully.

Qin Feng nodded and walked towards the miscellaneous task courtyard.

The reason why Qin Feng wanted to go to Soft Wind Mountain this time was to take a look at the mysterious Anomaly tree in the mountain.

He wanted to see what the weakness of this Anomaly tree was.

And how long it would take to wake up.

This way, Qin Feng could also have a countermeasure.

If this mysterious Anomaly tree was too powerful.

Qin Feng could only escape.

After more than half an hour, Qin Feng and his group arrived at the Soft Wind Mountain camp.

However, the guards did not drive away the miscellaneous tasks and let them go up the mountain.

Instead, they gathered the miscellaneous tasks in front of the camp.

"What's going on?"

"Why aren't we going up Soft Wind Mountain today?"

"Is something big happening?"

"... "

The miscellaneous tasks whispered to each other.

They completely didn't understand why they had to gather in front of the Soft Wind Mountain camp.

"Silence!"

Xiao Ma shouted loudly.

Upon hearing Xiao Ma's shout, the miscellaneous tasks stopped discussing and looked ahead.

"Quiet down, Commander Qin is going to speak!"

After Xiao Ma finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Qin Feng, saying, "Commander Qin, please."

"Okay!"

Qin Feng nodded slightly and came to the front of the miscellaneous tasks.

"I want to recruit fifty people to go to the mountain to collect a herb!"

While Qin Feng was speaking, he looked at the miscellaneous tasks below.

The reason why Qin Feng recruited fifty people was not for collecting herbs at all.

Instead, he wanted to let these people enter the mountain and distract the attention of the Black Water Cult and the mysterious Anomaly tree.

"Enter the mountain?"

"Aren't we seeking death with so many Anomalies in the mountain?"

"I'm not going to the mountain!"

The miscellaneous tasks whispered to each other, but no one was willing to go to the mountain.

"Anyone who enters the mountain will be rewarded with one or two silver!"

"Those who find the Ice Spirit Flower can directly become guards!"

Qin Feng announced loudly.

"What? Become a guard?"

"Is there such a good thing?"

"Why haven't I heard of the Ice Spirit Flower?"

"Participating will get one or two silver?"

"I want to enter the mountain and find the Ice Spirit Flower!"

...

Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, the miscellaneous tasks suddenly became excited.

If they could find the Ice Spirit Flower in the mountain, they could go from being a miscellaneous task to becoming a guard.

In the future, they would no longer have to go to Soft Wind Mountain to collect herbs.

No longer a servant who is called and ordered around by others.

No need to squeeze into a crowded dormitory.

The monthly salary is more than one thousand and two hundred wen.

A few minutes later, Qin Feng recruited more than fifty servants who were willing to enter the inner mountain of Soft Wind Mountain.

After encouraging these servants, Qin Feng let them head towards the inner mountain.

Qin Feng also followed slowly behind these people.

After more than half an hour, Qin Feng arrived in front of a huge valley.

"Divine Tree Valley!"

"The Monster Race Divine Tree should be inside this valley!"

While saying this, Qin Feng looked into the valley.

In the middle of the valley, there was a red blood pool.

In the blood pool, there was a giant tree that was dozens of zhang long.

In front of the tree, there were a pair of closed eyes.

On this Anomaly Divine Tree, there was also a terrifying aura.

Even Qin Feng standing there could feel his heart palpitate.

"This should be the Anomaly Divine Tree!"

Qin Feng looked at the Anomaly Divine Tree in front of him and said slowly.

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Pour blood into the Divine Tree!"

"..."

At this moment, shouts came from afar.

"Someone is here!"

Qin Feng's figure moved and quickly hid behind a nearby rock.

Not long after Qin Feng hid, he saw Wang Jianren and more than twenty subordinates arrive here.

These subordinates were carrying huge water jars on their backs.

The water jars were filled with blood.

"Pour!"

Under Wang Jianren's command, all the blood in the water jars was poured into the pool next to the Divine Tree.

"Buzz, buzz!"

As the blood poured in, the leaves above the tree began to wave frantically.

The roots below also absorbed the blood in the pool crazily.

Wang Jianren looked at the Divine Tree and revealed a satisfied smile.

"Wang Protector, there are dozens of servants who entered the inner mountain. Should we capture them to feed the Divine Tree?"

A man with a goatee asked.

"The Divine Tree will wake up soon!"

"No need to complicate matters!"

Wang Jianren shook his head slightly.

"Understood!"

The goatee and the others all stood behind Wang Jianren.

"Now is a good time to observe the weaknesses of the Divine Tree!"

Qin Feng waved his hand and directly activated the Eye of Heaven skill.

"Buzz!"

As Qin Feng used the Eye of Heaven, a virtual eye appeared in the sky.

Soon, the information about the Divine Tree appeared in Qin Feng's eyes.

[Name: Liang Xu]

[Half-Treant Anomaly: High Rank]

[Strength: Bone Refining Fourth Grade]

[Defense: Strong]

[Weaknesses: Glutinous rice, flames, quicklime]

[Characteristics: Every year on September 15th, strength will decrease by half. A flaw in the blood-colored shield will appear in the back mountain of Eternal Peace County, allowing escape from the back mountain of Eternal Peace County!]

[Every year on August 15th, the strength of the Anomaly Divine Tree will double]

[Source: Black Water Cult's Supreme Protector, cultivated the Half-Tree Secret Technique and transformed into the Anomaly Divine Tree!]

[Twenty-five years ago, he was severely injured by a member of the Great Wei royal family and transformed into the Divine Tree Anomaly. Eighteen years ago, he was attacked by the previous owner of Eternal Peace Medicine Manor and fell into a deep sleep!]

[Awakening: Two months later, the Anomaly Divine Tree will awaken! By putting glutinous rice flour into the blood, the Anomaly Divine Tree can absorb it and continue to sleep!]

Looking at the attributes of the Divine Tree, Qin Feng's face was full of astonishment.

He originally thought that this Anomaly Divine Tree was a tree that had cultivated into an anomaly.

But he didn't expect that this Anomaly Divine Tree was actually the Supreme Protector of the Black Water Cult.

This Black Water Cult Protector, Liang Xu, transformed into the Anomaly Divine Tree after being defeated by a powerful expert from Great Wei.

"So the weak period of this Anomaly Divine Tree is actually on September 15th every year!"

"It's not August 15th at all!"

At this moment, Qin Feng finally understood why the previous owner of Eternal Peace Medicine Manor had failed.
