Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 618 Observing the Way of Heaven, Acting in Accordance with Heaven! Cultivating only ancestral nature without cultivating the elixir will make it difficult for a vengeful spirit to attain sainthood through countless eons!

Even as a tree spirit, having broken free from ordinary vegetation, it still relies on the instinct of sunlight.

But sunlight was still a rare source of nourishment for the tree spirit.

Especially the light emanating from Luo Fu at this moment, which seemed very much like sunlight, yet had a strange influence even more than sunlight.

The Tree Demon Granny was puzzled. After carefully sensing it, she felt a sudden sense of fear and vigilance deep down.

The reality is that the light emanating from Luo Fu did indeed bring him immense benefits.

Ultimately, she was driven by greed. Even after transforming into a demon, she could not escape her instincts. Or rather, these instincts were an important part of the Tree Demon Granny's nature.

While frantically absorbing the light emanating from Luo Fu to enhance herself, she said, "Good lad, good lad, I underestimated you. No wonder you can cultivate such powerful and masculine Five Elements magic. If you were to use such techniques on me, I would be willing to marry you. I have several beautiful souls under my command that I would like to give to you as concubines."

Luo Fu looked strange.

The Tree Demon Granny was, after all, a demon. Even though she was blessed by the monks of Lanruo Temple and gained sentience and took the form of a demon, she still could not completely sever her nature.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that while the light emanating from Luo Fu was indeed beneficial to the vegetation, everything in excess is as bad as deficiency.

The light emanating from Luofu is far beyond what real sunlight can compare to.

That was a power from another world that nearly plunged one world into utter doomsday.

radiation.

That's right.

At this moment, the light emanating from Luo Fu's body was radiation of extreme intensity.

In the world of Joy of Life, Luo Fu cultivated his martial arts to the level of a high-level martial artist through radiation. He could transform into a blazing sun at any time, and his terrifying radiation had the terrifying power to destroy all life force from the very bottom.

What's even more terrifying is that this destruction, on the surface, presents the illusion that the body is too weak to benefit from it.

The Tree Demon Granny is in this situation now. Because she has a thousand years of cultivation, she can resist the effects of radiation for a short period of time.

Even such intense radiation might not be able to completely destroy it.

But whether the Tree Demon Granny can still control her own mutation after absorbing the radiation from Luo Fu is uncertain.

As for the impact of doing so on the entire Jinhua area...

While radiation can indeed harm all living beings, the one who will be most directly affected by the radiation on Luo Fu is the Tree Demon Granny, especially since the Tree Demon Granny is indeed as greedy as Luo Fu had guessed.

He absorbed all the intense radiation emanating from his body, effectively shielding Jin Hua from all the harm caused by the radiation.

The radiation martial arts developed by Luofu in the world of Joy of Life, which emits radiation itself, is not the original source. Originally, radiation martial arts was based on absorbing radiation.

Having shared this ability, Luo Fu can not only project the radiation outwards, presenting the image of his body radiating intense light, but he can also absorb the radiation back in.

The process of releasing and contracting is not as simple as a decrease and an increase.

It can be said that from the moment the Tree Demon Granny greedily absorbed the radiation from Luo Fu, he was completely trapped in the snare set by Luo Fu.

While sending himself to his death, he also took the initiative to shield the entire city of Jinhua from this unprecedented natural disaster.

The radiant light emanating from Luo Fu seemed endless.

The Tree Demon Granny kept adding layers of protection. At the beginning, there was only one tree absorbing the radiation from Luofu. Now, a jungle has been formed centered on Luofu, completely enveloping him.

To the Tree Demon Granny, every ray of light emanating from Luo Fu at this moment was like an unparalleled tonic.

In a short period of time, the amount of radiation he absorbed from Luo Fu was far greater than the amount of vital energy he absorbed from many strong men.

The tree spirit, greedily absorbing this radiant light, quickly used all her roots to absorb the radiant light she had obtained from Luofu.

Radiation unlike anything ever seen in this world spread at an alarming rate.

Jinshan Temple is located just a few dozen miles from Jinhua.

Sitting cross-legged atop a solitary peak, with a radiant Bodhi light above his head, shimmering like a rainbow, Fahai, dressed in a white kasaya and possessing a handsome face, suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze turned in horror towards the direction of Lanruo Temple.

"what is that?"

Although he couldn't see what was happening at Lanruo Temple from afar, Fahai suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

It seemed as if an unprecedented and terrifying catastrophe was taking place in the direction of Lanruo Temple.

They were truly righteous and hated evil. Even though Lanruo Temple and Jinshan Temple regarded each other as heretics due to the conflict of their lineages, and Lanruo Temple was in ruins and occupied by monsters, Jinshan Temple did not do much.

Fahai now felt an urge to go there himself.

With a leap, he jumped off the solitary peak and returned to Jinshan Temple as if riding the clouds. Fahai briefly explained the situation to Jinshan Temple, urging them to be on high alert.
He himself quickly carried many magic-slaying treasures and headed towards Lanruo Temple.

Unbeknownst to him, his use of radiant light to deal with the tree demon had already alarmed the renowned Zen Master Fahai.

As for the Tree Demon Granny's frantic absorption of radiation light, Luo Fu seemed to be fueling the flames, increasing the intensity of his own radiation light.

No matter how much the Tree Demon Granny absorbs, Luo Fu will provide her with enough, and even slightly more, to raise the upper limit of her potential for growth.

It was tempting this greedy old monster to let as many of its roots and tendrils as possible fall into the pollution of the radiation light.

The effects of radiation are ultimately uncontrollable.

Even though the Tree Demon Granny did have a great advantage at the beginning, it was due to her own suppression by her thousand years of magical power.

And when the distortion caused by the radiation is about to exceed the critical value.

The Tree Demon Granny finally realized something was wrong.

The terrified cries spread rapidly from Lanruo Temple, covering the entire city of Jinhua and even extending far beyond the city limits.

"Damn it, what did you do? What is this light?"

Luo Fu smiled coldly and said, "This is a good thing that can help you become an immortal and attain enlightenment."

"Stop! Stop it now!" The tree demon, finally realizing she had been tricked, frantically tried to stop absorbing the radiation.

However, all of his roots and roots were now completely contaminated by the radiation, and the tree god, especially the one closest to Luofu, was so distorted that it had even begun to break free from the control of the tree demon grandmother.

Although the Tree Demon Granny is a demon, when a part of her true form begins to break free from her control, her original form, which was originally unified under one will, finally undergoes a change that even Luo Fu, the instigator, is somewhat caught off guard by.

This change arose from the radiant light, but it manifested and acted directly in the spiritual realm.

Mind and body are inherently inseparable.
This is also the key to Taoism's concept of nature and destiny. Cultivating only nature without cultivating destiny is the first ailment in cultivation; cultivating only ancestral nature without cultivating the elixir will make it difficult for one's spirit to attain sainthood even after countless eons.

The Tree Demon Granny was a demon by nature, and her temperament was inherently flawed. In addition, her true form was so powerful that her roots spread to a level that surpassed the entirety of Jinhua. The difference between her life and death was already extremely large.

The expansion of the root system is indeed the best way for the Tree Demon Granny to save her life when she encounters an insurmountable enemy.

However, in the practice of cultivation, this is undoubtedly a shortcut, a risky and unorthodox approach, and will inevitably leave drawbacks to one's own cultivation.

Monsters are known for their bloodthirstiness and cruelty, precisely because there is such a huge gap between life and death.

The radiant light that Luo Fu is unleashing at this moment does not belong to this world.

In terms of physical enhancement, it was something that the Tree Demon Granny had almost never encountered before.

It was precisely because of this that when the Tree Demon Granny felt the radiation strengthening her physical body, she recklessly and foolishly absorbed all of the radiation's power into her own body, thereby enhancing her physical strength.

The Radiant Martial Arts, within the shared space, even now boasts the membership of sixteen Luofu sects.

In the novel "Joy of Life," Luo Fu has developed the radiating martial arts to a high level, transforming into a blazing sun, like a golden crow soaring across the sky, shining like a star. However, within the shared space, its presence remains extremely weak.

The reason is simple: radiation martial arts are too simple, too brutal, and extremely dangerous.

Yes.

Radiation martial arts, by its very nature, is an unorthodox approach. While it allows for rapid and efficient improvement in strength, it also demands extremely high levels of mental discipline.

Moreover, the Radiation Martial Arts did not achieve a balance between mentality and strength, and the gap between the two would often widen.

To some extent, the radiation martial arts developed by Luofu in Joy of Life is a heretical system quite similar to magnetic field martial arts. The most criticized aspect of magnetic field martial arts is that it is full of eccentric people.

The same applies to radiation martial arts. Especially when practicing this system in a high-radiation environment, one's strength can improve by leaps and bounds. However, if one's mindset is not strong enough to control one's strength, one will inevitably go to extremes.

This is a typical example of how it is difficult for a spirit to attain sainthood after countless eons of suffering.

The novel "Joy of Life" is also striving to make up for the shortcomings of radiation martial arts.

Now, Luo Fu is using this to trick the Tree Demon Granny, which is absolutely beneficial to him.

It should be noted that Luo Fu of Joy of Life has delved into radiation itself, reaching the level where laws possess primordial spirit.

When used for good, it can help one's own evolution; when used for evil, it can easily disrupt the balance of others' lives. In concrete terms, this manifests as distortions and genetic damage caused by radiation.

Without a doubt, the Tree Demon Granny suffered a great loss.

On the one hand, no one in the world had ever developed such a sinister power as radiation before.

Even if the world itself is radiant, who in this world would develop power in the direction of absolute diode thinking?

Even the Taoists, who emphasize Yin and Yang, actually uphold the principle of impartiality.

To put it bluntly, the integration of the three religions is not without foundation.

Whether it's the principle of applying the middle way, observing the way of heaven, acting in accordance with the way of heaven, or the emptiness of all phenomena, they all have a similar essence.

However, it is obvious that the Tree Demon Granny, being a demon, does not understand these things.

Moreover, the radiation itself contained a certain degree of Luofu's malice, and the degree of distortion made it impossible for the Tree Demon Granny to control her own massive root system.

As the distortion deepened, the Tree Demon Granny quickly realized that her main body had developed one ignorant consciousness after another.

These extra consciousnesses are not only ignorant, but more importantly, each one is more extreme than the last.

The convergence and mixing of numerous extreme ideologies ultimately leads to madness.

Once a frenzied consciousness emerged, the Tree Demon Granny completely lost the will to deal with Luo Fu.

It's not that he didn't want to, but that he no longer had the chance. The mad consciousness that had been born within his body had begun to vie for the initiative with the Tree Demon Granny.

The voice of the Tree Demon Granny was neither male nor female, neither old nor young, as if the voices of countless people were overlapping.

At this moment, with the emergence of her delirious consciousness, the Tree Demon Granny began to develop in the direction of madness, and no longer cared about Luofu.

Even if the main trunk on the surface is completely destroyed by Luo Fu, as long as the roots still exist, he will still have a chance to turn things around in the future.

If that frenzied consciousness truly took over and erased her own consciousness, then the Tree Demon Granny would truly cease to exist.

He struggled against the frenzied consciousness that arose from the mutation within his body.

The entire city of Jinhua was shaking as if an earthquake had struck.

The most serious case is undoubtedly Lanruo Temple, which was used as a lair by the Tree Demon Granny.

Amidst the violent tremors of the earth, a root suddenly burst through the ground, and in the instant it emerged, it twisted into an image that shattered everyone's worldview.

Those irregular, rough roots, eyes, mouth, nose, ears, arms, tentacles, claws, wings... all stopped growing out at once.

Even Luo Fu, the one who started it all, couldn't help but frown uncomfortably when he saw the appearance of this thick root.

Honestly, the appearance of this root is just too disheartening.

This is clearly a distortion in the direction of the Cthulhu mythos.

After all, the Cthulhu mythos has no fixed form; it is an incomprehensible chaos that exists entirely outside the realm of order.

No amount of rationality can define Cthulhu.

And the current appearance of this root is practically a standard Cthulhu image.

It was clearly the root of a thousand-year-old tree demon, but it grew eyes, nose, arms, tentacles, mouth, claws... things that should never appear on a species. It was as if the characteristics of birds, beasts, flowers, insects, fish, animals and plants had been simply and crudely grown together.

The Tree Demon Granny naturally also saw this consciousness vying for control of her body.

Even he himself was quite frightened by the image created by this frenzied consciousness.

"Monster, monster! You're even more of a demon than Grandma! What did you do to Grandma?"

The Tree Demon Granny was responsible for the various forms of pollution caused by the mutated and frenzied roots, while simultaneously angrily questioning Luo Fu.

Luo Fu smiled and said, "I'm just giving you a helping hand. Your path to enlightenment is about to be completed."

"You monster!" the Tree Demon Granny roared in despair.
