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

Chapter 106 Deterioration (Subscription Request)

On the deserted road, an armored personnel carrier tore through the rain.

Hundreds of red-baked yang stones were piled on the roof of the armored vehicle, and the vehicle was hung with poplar charcoal.

Twenty men and women were crowded in the carriage.

Everyone's face was filled with despair.

No one spoke, and the carriage was filled with the smell of sweat, feet, and vomit from motion sickness.

There were six seats in the cab, but only three people were sitting there.

The driver stared ahead intently and kept turning the steering wheel.

If you are not careful, the front of the car will create ripples in the rain, and the poplar charcoal hanging on it will melt immediately.

"There are too many rain ghosts. If we keep driving, our charcoal will run out and we'll have to stop and look for supplies." The co-pilot turned his head to look at the rearview mirror. Even though the car's speed had reached 180, there were still many ripples in the rain moving towards the armored vehicle.

The person sitting in the back seat was wrapped in bandages all over his body, even his eyes were blocked. After hearing what the co-pilot said, the bandaged person sat up straight and untied the gauze on his head circle by circle.

Slowly, the bandaged man's face was revealed, revealing a middle-aged man who looked a little haggard.

However, his face was covered with scars, and some of the wounds were still fresh and had just been healed with surgical thread.

The man seemed to feel no pain. After removing the gauze, he opened the map he carried with him and began to look at it carefully.

"It's still 300 kilometers away from XN City, the nearest supply point..." The man looked at the map, and a new wound suddenly appeared on his face, as if something was about to come out of his head.

Upon seeing this, the co-pilot hurriedly opened the first aid kit, turned around and started stitching the middle-aged man.

As the wound was sewn up, the middle-aged man's voice came back: "The nearest supply point is at 109°09′ east longitude, 23°41′ north latitude. It used to be called Ailing Town."

"Thank you for your hard work." The co-pilot sighed, his eyes full of pity.

The middle-aged man raised the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to smile, but the scars and wounds on his face made him smile like a ghost. Silently, the man put down the map and wrapped the bandage again.

The driver also had a serious look on his face, then he made a sharp turn and changed lanes.

After the bandaged man gave the address, the road in front of the driver seemed to become clear, and the fog that interfered with the driver's direction suddenly lost its effect.

"Old Zhou, what should we do? He can't hold on any longer." Driver Meng Zhijun asked the co-pilot with a worried look on his face.

Co-pilot Zhou Wenping's fingers were turning pale as he grasped the first aid kit. "We have to hold on. There is only one section left to reach XN City. We have to pass the message on."

"But its power is not enough for us to locate it again. We have so many cars and people escaping. Maybe some of them have already reached XN City. If Ailing Town has resources, why don't we stop there? It has been proven that the monsters that land will only destroy large cities."

"The mutant monsters in the ocean are rioting. Do you think the ones on land will be safe? We have encountered so many rain monsters along the way. This year, there are more than ten times more rain monsters than before!" Zhou Wenping looked at Meng Zhijun's slightly trembling hands and did not put any more pressure on him: "Forget it, let's talk about it when we get to Ailing Town. We have already fulfilled our responsibilities."

The armored vehicle rushed towards Ailing Town and disappeared in the rain.

After a while, ripples appeared in the rain, and the heavy rain gathered together and followed the direction of the armored vehicle.

On the playground, Huo Ying and Yu Gui were confronting each other.

Finally, the rain ghosts who went to replenish the stream water came back. Instead of spraying water directly, they saw that Huo Ying's wooden shield could prevent corrosion, and then circled around Huo Ying, trying to find Huo Ying's flaws.

"The Yugui should all be here. I don't know how many are left in the town."

Huo Ying suddenly clasped his hands together.

Wood Release: Sea of Trees Descent.

A large number of poplar trees suddenly grew on the playground. The roots and branches of the trees were connected hand in hand, and they quickly turned into a small forest, surrounding Huo Ying and a large number of Yu Gui.

The huge tree canopy formed an umbrella shape, blocking some of the rain falling from the sky.

Lightning Release: Thunder Fang.

Huo Ying pointed to the sky, and lightning suddenly tore through the rain curtain and gathered in Huo Ying's hand. Then, Huo Ying pushed his palm towards the forest. The next second, every poplar tree was covered by lightning and turned into charcoal.

The tree of birth in the sea of trees suddenly turned into a huge charcoal forest. If the rain ghosts were touched by it, most of their bodies would be purified by the charcoal.

it's not finished yet.

The charcoal tree seemed to come alive suddenly. It stretched out its arms and swung its branches, whipping the rain ghosts who kept dodging. No matter how much stream water was stored in its body, the endless charcoal forest could purify it. Even the rain ghosts were beaten to ashes.

After making sure that all the Yu Gui were dead, Huo Ying ended the supply of chakra, the lightning disappeared, and the trees stopped growing wildly. Although some of them were consumed by the Yu Gui, there were still large areas of charcoal trees left on the playground.

"Forget it, let's just consider it as doing a good deed for the survivors of this town."

Huo Ying took a look and did not destroy the charcoal. Instead, he stood up and walked towards the Zhang father and son. He wanted to see if his weapons had been repaired and if his knives and guns had been prepared.

Huo Ying had a vague feeling that the number of rain ghosts was not right and the town might become dangerous. The rain ghosts were restrained by charcoal, but not other ghosts. On rainy days, the power of the poplar wood flame was reduced, so Yang stone weapons were more convenient.

On the way to the abandoned construction site, Huo Ying suddenly discovered that there were deep tire marks on the muddy road. A car drove in from behind the town and headed in the direction of Zhang and his son.

"It's not Zhang Yuqi's car. The tire marks are deep, the car is heavy, and there are many people in it."

Using the Sharingan, Huo Ying analyzed the situation of the vehicle and felt a little relieved.

"They were not evictors. If they were, they would definitely enter the house to look for survivors and rob them. But this car drove to a remote place instead. They were obviously more cautious and did not steal supplies or women."

Huo Ying quickly rushed to the construction site and saw a heavy armored vehicle from a distance.

The car stopped in front of Zhang's and his son's house, and it was obvious that they were exposed.

The door of the cab and the rear hatch were open. Several women were standing in the rain, letting the rain wash over them. A pool of yellow and reddish-brown dirty water had appeared under the women's feet.

Opposite the car was a group of naked men who were also washing. Everyone was very dirty, but they still remained civilized and knew to use the armored vehicle to wash separately from the women.

"He brought women with him and still maintained his civility. These women are probably the men's dependents."

Huo Ying felt a little relieved. This group of people seemed to be less aggressive and more like refugees than invaders. It seemed that Zhang and his son were not in danger and should still be alive.
