”Let me take a look.” Du Yu stepped forward, waving to the three aligned Chi Bears.

The scene before him was quite amusing: a bow and two arrows, with the three Chi Bears each holding one.

”Ping!” Little Tai Sui hugged an arrow and ran over with a little bounce in its step.

”It’s really black.” Du Yu took the Withered and Flourishing Arrow.

The arrow was pitch black throughout, with a sharp tip and a long body.

The middle of the arrow bore a Demon Arrow Array, but its groove shape was quite special.

Like a tree?

And it’s the kind of dead tree, with branches twisted and no leaves to adorn it.

Despite the small size of the array, the dead tree was intricately carved, showing the Chi Bear Race’s Demon Weapon Masters did put a lot of effort into it.

Off to the side, Yang Qingqing also received another Withered and Flourishing Arrow handed over from the Forbidden City, while only Hongye quietly held onto the Withered and Flourishing Bow, waiting.

”Swipe~”

As Du Yu injected Demon Breath into the arrow, the withered tree array slowly lit up.

Hongye timely extended the Demon Soul, enveloping Du Yu and Yang Qingqing, ”Master, this Demon Soldier Arrow is an attributeless Demon Soldier, Emperor-grade.”

”Yes.” Du Yu nodded.

Attributeless demonic plants in this world are very rare; Du Yu only knows of a few demonic plants like Twin Trees, Nameless Trees, etc.

Since visiting the Ashen Continent, Du Yu’s knowledge base has been enriched with one more attributeless demonic plant—the Life and Death Tree.

The demon soldiers produced by such demonic plants are attributeless as well.

For example, Du Yu’s Demon Soldier· Divine Demon Bow can be activated with any attribute of Demon Breath.

Hongye continued to explain, ”This arrow only has one Demon Soldier Array, which can cause a target’s physical body to wither and their life force to dissipate.”

Du Yu’s heart was greatly moved, and two words burst in his mind: Decay?!

Hongye nodded, ”Yes, if this arrow pierces through the Demon Breath Battle Robe and into the body, the target will rapidly deteriorate.”

”Impressive!” Du Yu sincerely praised, spinning the arrow around in his hand and inspecting the tip closely.

”Master can try it out.” Hongye handed the Withered and Flourishing Bow over.

Du Yu didn’t hesitate, directly drawing the bow and nocking the arrow, aiming at a bamboo grove outside the courtyard.

”Thump!” The bowstring trembled, and the Withered and Flourishing Arrow shot out rapidly.

The pitch-black arrow pierced through the bamboo, its sharp tip slicing it open and embedding into the tall bamboo.

The next scene amazed Du Yu greatly!

That piece of dark red bamboo visibly began to decay at an eye-catching speed!

Every second, its life force drained away, its sheen fading quickly.

A perfectly good bamboo transformed into ”rotten bamboo.”

”This is remarkable.” Du Yu murmured, suddenly realizing something was amiss!

The bamboo next to the one pierced by the Withered and Flourishing Arrow also started withering rapidly from the bottom up?

Du Yu entwined wind and fire around his feet and rapidly flew towards the Withered and Flourishing Arrow.

”Master, be careful!”

”Ping~” Several Chi Bears began calling out.

”No problem.” Du Yu responded loudly, his figure swiftly darting.

The bamboo appeared independent, but in the depths below, their roots were intertwined, forming a network.

If Du Yu didn’t retrieve the Withered and Flourishing Arrow, this entire bamboo grove might be destroyed by the arrow!

”Snap!” Du Yu grabbed the arrow’s tail and pulled it out.

”Alright, alright.” Du Yu said, realizing that his Demon Breath Battle Robe was under attack by the Withered and Flourishing Arrow.

Though he wanted to dissuade further, the arrow quickly withdrew its attack.

The withered tree pattern array quietly faded, and the arrow returned to normal.

”This is too domineering!” Du Yu grinned, thinking that this arrow must be used with caution... Huh?

Du Yu gripped the Withered and Flourishing Arrow tightly, and a tree silhouette emerged in his mind—the Youhan Tree!

Instantly, he gazed at the pitch-black arrow in his hand, eyes burning with intensity.

If you hold such heavenly power...

Can I use you to completely shoot through the Youhan Tree, shoot it till its body decays and withers?

”Buzz~”

The Withered and Flourishing Arrow gently trembled.

As an Emperor-grade Arrow, it had yet to gather a Soldier’s Soul and couldn’t express intent.

In fact, one might say its consciousness hadn’t fully formed.

Yet Du Yu’s extreme hatred and desire to destroy the Youhan Tree made the arrow react slightly!

Complete withering of all things?

Withered and Flourishing, born for this!

”Alright! Haha!” Du Yu shouted aloud, even laughing out sound.

In the courtyard, Yang Qingqing couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow slightly.

In this world, many things can bring joy to her apprentice.

Those around him, every Demon Pet within him, can give him warmth.

But only one thing can make Du Yu’s blood boil instantly...

Destroying the Youhan Tree!

That is his lifelong wish, the goal he dreams of achieving.

From high above, Du Yu quickly restrained his emotions, aware of the eyes on him and realizing his lapse.

He returned to the Red Bamboo Courtyard, smiling sheepishly, ”Got a divine weapon, couldn’t be happier.”

Yang Qingqing was unconcerned, ”Let loose a bit, no need to always hold back.”

Du Yu: ”...”

Let loose a bit?

Is it really okay? You said it yourself!

Yang Qingqing turned to Hongye, ”Do the arrays on both arrows have the same effect?”

”No, Master Qing,” Hongye replied properly, ”The other arrow is quite the opposite, and can restore the target’s life force.”

”Oh?”

Hongye: ”Although this Demon Soldier Array is attributeless, Master Buqiu said it’s best to activate it with Wood Demon Breath for more effective healing.”

Du Yu interjected, ”Buqiu?”

Hongye: ”The Demon Weapon Master who crafted the bow and arrow, named Buqiu.”

”Oh.” Du Yu nodded thoughtfully, a rather interesting name, huh?

Buqiu...

Now thinking of bamboo, that’d imply evergreen through the seasons?

Du Yu speculated in his heart and handed the Withered and Flourishing Bow to Master Qing.

Yang Qingqing took it casually, quickly drawing the bow and setting an arrow.

”Whiz~”

The pitch-black arrow swifted through the air, piercing straight into the dried bamboo outside the courtyard.

”Crack!” A crisp sound echoed as the Withered and Flourishing Arrow embedded itself.

The previously dull bamboo began to shine, rapidly rejuvenating with life.

”Isn’t this contradictory?” While marveling at the effects of the array, Du Yu also felt puzzled.

I have to pierce you first in order to heal you?

If the arrow hits the head, is it curing or killing?

In just over ten meters, the dried bamboo returned to a dark red hue, even the cracks from the previous arrow healed.

Such a powerful healing array!

Such a powerful Emperor-grade Withered and Flourishing Arrow!

Yang Qingqing held the Withered and Flourishing Bow, tapping Du Yu’s arm with the bow arm.

”Hm?” Du Yu looked at Master Qing in confusion.

Yang Qingqing smiled at Du Yu: ”What, you want your mentor to retrieve it?”

”Oh, oh.” Du Yu finally reacted, immediately flying to retrieve the arrow.

A thing like a Demon Soldier has countless advantages, the only flaw being it cannot be autonomously retrieved before upgrading to Holy Soldier.

Du Yu reached the bamboo, grasped the arrow tail, and pulled gently.

The rich green energy still surged, the bamboo’s crack slowly mending.

Du Yu touched the healed bamboo area, smooth and warm beneath his hand, not a hint of injury?

”Goodness~” Du Yu looked at the arrow in his hand, suddenly pondering a question.

It’s widely known that after upgrading to the Holy Grade, Demon Soldiers undergo qualitative changes in size!

Small ones around 70-80 meters, large ones exceeding 100 meters.

At that time, how can this Withered and Flourishing Arrow heal the Human Race?

A giant arrow sped over, wouldn’t it crush people into pulp, where’s the room for healing?

Thus, the Holy Grade Withered and Flourishing Arrow can only heal Demon Saints and Supreme figures.

Du Yu thought quietly and flew back to the Red Bamboo Courtyard.

”What are the effects of this bow’s array?” Yang Qingqing fiddled with the delicate Hunting Bow in hand, long jade fingers pointing at its grip, where there was also a withered tree mark.

Hongye: ”This bow’s arrows can extract the target’s life force.”

Du Yu pondered and said: ”Is it considered another form of ’Withering’?”

Only the output method differs.

One destroys the enemy’s life force, the other extracts it.

All leading to the same end.

Hongye said: ”According to Master Buqiu, once this bow upgrades to the Holy Grade, it’ll be especially strong.

Elemental arrows shot after activating the array can not only extract target life force but presumably also replenish the bow bearer.”

With this statement, Du Yu and Yang Qingqing exchanged glances.

Isn’t this the embodiment of the Life and Death Tree?

Master Buqiu finally uncovered the essence of the Life and Death Tree in this bow!

Well... actually not quite accurate.

The power of the Life and Death Tree lies not merely in extracting life force; it can absorb any meaningful energy.

While this bow can only extract target life force.

Yang Qingqing softly said: ”We should properly thank Master Buqiu.”

Hongye promptly said: ”Master Buqiu is cultivating by Crescent Lake, we’ll meet him at the ceremony.”

”Hmm.” Yang Qingqing nodded gently.

She took out the arrow needing activation by Wood Demon Breath from the bow and twin arrows, glanced at Du Yu: ”Take the bow and arrow.”

Du Yu put away the Arrow of Complete Withering and handed the Withered and Flourishing Bow to the other: ”Master Qing, I have the Divine Demon Bow, the top-level Twin Trees material.

Plus, the Divine Demon Bow is Second Grade Unyielding Silver Quality, I need lots of time to cultivate it.”

Upon hearing, Yang Qingqing’s brows lightly furrowed.

”Master Qing.” Du Yu suddenly adjusted his collar, ”Look, I’m really handsome today.”

Yang Qingqing was momentarily stunned: ”Hm?”

”How could you bear to refuse me?” Du Yu whispered, picking up the Hunting Bow, surprisingly sliding it over Yang Qingqing’s head.

Yang Qingqing: ???

Du Yu adjusted the Hunting Bow’s angle, hanging the Withered and Flourishing Bow diagonally on her, nodding in satisfaction.

Yang Qingqing lifted her eyes at Du Yu, smirking and teasing: ”You’ve got some nerve.”

Du Yu mumbled, ”You just told me to act boldly.”

Yang Qingqing’s smile carried a bit of amusement, her eyes slightly narrowed.

Du Yu’s heart thumped heavily!

Uh oh,

the feeling of... heart excitement or, err, heart blockage!

Despite pressure, Du Yu stepped forward, whispering: ”Isn’t what’s Master Qing’s also mine, like the Mountain Fire Saber?

I can use it anytime.”

These words were indeed true, Yang Qingqing didn’t deny it.

Du Yu: ”Just consider it as Master Qing carrying it for me, like Little Shiwei holding the Lion Bone Scythe.”

Yang Qingqing: ”...”

Du Yu muttered: ”Also, Master Qing, you must properly cultivate this bow.

It’s Emperor Grade, and the Life and Death Tree is a Saint-level Demonic Plant, this bow has the potential for Becoming a Saint, you cannot neglect it.

The words of advice paused because the woman’s fingers overlapped, landing on Du Yu’s forehead.

It was presumably a flick to the forehead.

”Dong~”

Just as expected.

”Ugh.” Du Yu held his head, backing up several steps.

Ha, my kingly Demon Breath Battle Robe didn’t even break!

This woman, seems she didn’t eat.

Speaking of,

With this bow that extracts life force from all things...

She’s even less likely to die, right?
