breath of the dead.

Chapter 3331 Confirming Everything (Bonus Chapter, Please Subscribe to All Chapters)
Looking at the big tree in front of him, a strange look flashed in Gu Xi's eyes.

This was the first time he had ever seen a plant that had died twice.

Or perhaps, this was the first time Gu Xi had ever witnessed such a starkly distinct state of death.

It felt like putting the Western underworld and the Eastern netherworld together; although both are the netherworld, one could immediately see the difference between them.

Just like when Gu Xi first saw this tree, he could clearly feel two different auras of death constantly crowding together.

The collision of these two energies produces a special light that is resisting the sacred moonlight of Gu Xi.

If this sacred moonlight were only reserved for the head of all goddesses, perhaps this special deathly radiance could indeed block it.

However, the sacred moonlight we see today originates from the Moon Palace.

In addition to the power of the chief goddess, there is also the power from the Hand of Death.

The sacred moonlight of today has been elevated.

The sacred moonlight was already stronger than the arrow of rebirth, and now it completely suppressed this thing.

Even if the light tries its best to resist, it cannot completely resist the cleansing of the sacred moonlight.

Not to mention that Gu Xi has arrived now, and under his control, the sacred moonlight slowly turns the tree in front of him completely silver.

As the tree's color changed, something suddenly appeared in Gu Xi's mind.

Meanwhile, the leader of the goddesses behind Gu Xi quickly stepped forward and transferred this information to the information database of the goddess leader. At the same time, the Longevity Flower directly squeezed some things out of Gu Xi's mind.

After everything was cleared up, Gu Xi checked the current situation through the head of all the goddesses.

At this moment, Gu Xi finally understood some information about this world.

At least he doesn't have to be like the blind men and the elephant, relying entirely on guesswork.

At the very least, he will have some understanding of the world around him.

The world before me is a true world of rebirth.

The reason why there isn't a single ghost in this world is entirely because everyone who enters this world has been sent to the afterlife.

Everything that exists, without exception.

While the situation of passing away is superficially described as passing into the cycle of reincarnation, in reality there is no reincarnation; there is only the four words: birth, death, and the past.

These four characters correspond to the four trees here.

The Tree of Life represents life and will take you back to before you are born.

The tree in front of you represents death and will send you to the afterlife.

The situation Gu Xi encountered when he first entered this world was the past, which would send him to a certain point in the past, a very important choice point, to start over.

The last one is "going forward," which refers to the future. It will send people to a certain point in the future, and during the time they disappear in between, all the choices are not theirs to make.

These methods actually sound rather mystical.

Because none of the destinies Gu Xi knew dared to play such a game.

But the Arrow of Rebirth dared to do such a thing.

This is just an ordinary red outfit; I don't know who gave the Arrow of Rebirth such courage.

To put it another way, if Gu Xi accepts the goodwill of fate and has the support of death, after he steps out of his own rules, he might be able to find a way to merge the power of death and fate together.

Ultimately, one can achieve half of the four words: life, death, past, and future.

Yet, this ordinary red-clad long arrow had accomplished all of that.

This left Gu Xi speechless. At this moment, Gu Xi wished he didn't know any of this, and wished he had used all his power from the beginning to forcibly suppress the Rebirth Arrow.

If things had been done this way earlier, Gu Xi wouldn't have needed to consider so many things.

There's no need to worry about whether there's anything wrong with the Rebirth Arrow.

Now that things have started, Gu Xi has no intention of stopping.

The current situation shouldn't be about figuring out how the Arrow of Rebirth did that; Gu Xi should be thinking about how to take down the remaining three trees in the shortest amount of time.

As for the tree before them, the sacred moonlight had already turned it silver, so there was no need for Gu Xi to say anything more.

Gu Xi simply raised his hand and uprooted the tree.

Of course, a second later, Gu Xi stabbed it back in.

Gu Xi felt that if he uprooted this tree, the entire Northwest region would collapse.

Although this area is gone, the world doesn't simply disappear because of the loss of one area.

However, Gu Xi clearly sensed something.

That means either we pull up all the trees at once, or we leave them alone.

If one tree is uprooted, the remaining trees will grow a new one to balance things out.

The newly grown trees will have some immunity to the methods of protection.

What if these trees get out of control?

Gu Xi didn't want any trouble at the last minute.

So Gu Xi simply put the tree back in.

Gu Xi planned to take down all the trees first, and then uproot the four large trees at the same time.

Only in this way can Gu Xi take over this world in one fell swoop and complete the binding of the Rebirth Arrow along the way.

However, even after the tree was replanted, Gu Xi's influence on the area did not reverse. On the contrary, because Gu Xi had taken down the core tree of the area, the speed at which the area became a ghost town was significantly accelerated.

Meanwhile, creatures that were not initially present began to appear in the area.

Gu Xi only glanced at the creature before understanding what was going on.

This is not the effect of resting in the underworld.

It was because Gu Xi took down the tree, and Gu Xi did not control the tree to continue its original effect, that all the creatures that had been sent to the afterlife because of the tree returned.

After all, they had all been affected by this big tree before, and not one of them was left; they were all sent away.

Now that the big tree has lost its influence on them, they naturally want to come back.

Among these creatures, some may know about the world, and some may be quite powerful.

Following the normal logic, Gu Xi should have solved a puzzle or similar task, such as breaking through a large tree, to rescue some people, learn about the game world, and finally complete the mission.

But Gu Xi didn't do that. He directly seized everything he wanted through relatively violent means, including the most important and crucial initiative.

There's absolutely no need for Gu Xi to ask these creatures about the situation in this world.

How many more trees could they possibly have under this tree?

Gu Xi glanced at them briefly before quickly heading to the next location.

Following the order Gu Xi had initially planned, after taking down the dead tree, Gu Xi needed to return to the starting point to deal with the living and dead trees.
