I Can Record Wonders

Chapter 181: Wuhuanzi Tree, the Marvel of Destiny

[Marvel: Wuhuan Wood

Type: Profound Dao (Wood)

Rank: Yellow Rank Ninth Grade

Rarity: Rare

Description: Legend has it that it is a branch graft of the ancient "Bodhi Tree," born from merits and endowed with karmic power. Three zhang (approximately 9 meters) bear a cluster of Bodhi leaves, and three clusters bear a Bodhi fruit.]

"Bodhi leaves!"

Fu Ning instantly understood that the shimmering golden leaves on the tree were the legendary "Bodhi leaves."

Bodhi enlightenment.

When practicing and evolving the Scenic Scholar, if one holds a Bodhi leaf in their mouth, it greatly increases the chance of enlightenment.

It was as if spiritual apertures were opening out of thin air.

"Bodhi leaves?!"

Shen Bijun widened her eyes, "Are these the legendary Bodhi leaves?!"

She only knew that Bodhi leaves were naturally Buddhist leaves with the power of enlightenment, but she never expected to see them in the Secret Realm.

"This fragrance... Could it also be emitted by the Bodhi leaves?"

Fu Ning nodded, "Bodhi leaves, as a naturally spiritual object, will inevitably have unique characteristics."

Before he could finish speaking, a cry came from his ears.

"Gugu gugu~"

"Gugu gugu~"

Fu Ning's expression changed, "Not good!"

"That Night Owl probably smelled the scent too."

Rustle~

The leaves on the tree rustled, and the fragrance drifted away with the strong wind.

Not only the Night Owl, but also the hidden disciples and elusive intimate birds...

This forest was far from being as peaceful as it seemed.

"We need to pick the Bodhi leaves quickly!"

Fu Ning's gaze sharpened, and he had already made up his mind.

Shen Bijun had the same idea. The two exchanged a glance and shared a knowing smile.

"Sister, there's only one Bodhi leaf. Shall we compete?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Bijun was slightly stunned. In her opinion, Fu Ning's actions were equivalent to handing over the Bodhi leaf.

"Junior Brother, thank you in advance~"

"It's not necessarily going to belong to anyone yet."

There were rules against flying in the Secret Realm, so they couldn't use flying Law Weapons.

However, the Bodhi leaf hung on the top of the three-zhang-high tree.

To pick the leaf, they had to climb the Wuhuanzi Tree.

So as soon as Fu Ning spoke, he tapped his foot, carrying a gust of wind, and appeared in mid-air. Just as he was about to fall, snowflake phantoms suddenly appeared beneath his feet.

It was the Snowflake Phantom from the "Six Steps of Evasion" technique.

The phantoms could confuse the enemy and also allow one to step on them in mid-air.

So when Fu Ning reached the highest point, his body not only didn't fall, but instead rose again.

This scene dumbfounded Shen Bijun behind him.

"What exquisite footwork!"

"Junior Brother is a Perfected Being hiding his true form!"

While they were talking, Shen Bijun had also reached mid-air.

Although she couldn't summon a flying Law Weapon, she was light as a swallow, and a bubble appeared beneath her feet.

Bang!

The bubble burst, causing a storm.

Shen Bijun's body actually used this airflow to propel herself upward.

Her speed was incredibly fast, instantly surpassing Fu Ning.

The "Six Steps of Evasion" excelled in footwork changes and was adept at dodging and maneuvering, but it didn't have an advantage in terms of speed.

So at this moment, Fu Ning could only watch as Shen Bijun plucked the leaf.

However, he had already recorded the marvel of the Wuhuanzi Tree.

According to the system's introduction, the Wuhuanzi Tree was a branch graft of the Bodhi Tree and could also evolve into Bodhi leaves.

On the other side, just as Shen Bijun's white clothes fluttered and her jade finger was about to touch the "Bodhi leaf" in the sky, suddenly...

"Gugu gugu~"

A gust of wind suddenly blew, causing the entire tree crown to sway.

"Oh no! It's the Night Owl!"

Fu Ning looked up and couldn't help but be shocked.

He didn't expect the Night Owl to discover the existence of the 'Bodhi Leaf' so quickly.

A natural treasure like this must have a Spirit Beast guarding it.

It's obvious that the Night Owl is determined to obtain the 'Bodhi Leaf'.

They had encountered this Night Owl last night, and thinking back now, it still sent shivers down their spine.

As the saying goes, a leaf can blind the eye. Shen Bijun's figure moved even faster, with her line of sight blocked by the leaves above her head.

Upon hearing Fu Ning's reminder, she quickly withdrew her hand.

"You beast!"

Shen Bijun was sent flying, but bubbles continued to appear from her hand.

"Hoo hoo hoo~"

The Night Owl was not to be underestimated either. Seeing the situation was not good, it flapped its wings and a fierce wind rushed towards them.

Boom boom boom!

Three loud tremors, and leaves scattered from the trees.

But the Night Owl hidden in the treetops was unharmed.

"Screech!"

Its eyes widened, and its huge body swooped down from above.

Shen Bijun was horrified, but it was already too late to escape.

"Sister!"

Seeing this, Fu Ning couldn't just stand by.

Origin Qi surged within him, and in the next moment, the shadow formed by the transformed Black Snake shot out, precisely binding Shen Bijun's body.

[Achievement unlocked: Obtained character profile 'Shen Bijun'.]

Hmm?

It can be used like this too??

Without time to check, Fu Ning pulled with force, and Shen Bijun was pulled back to the ground.

"Screech!"

The Night Owl's attack also failed as a result.

Fu Ning caught Shen Bijun with one hand and swiftly moved, employing the Six Directions Footwork.

Dadadada!

Their figures suddenly retreated more than three zhang.

Looking back at the tree, the Night Owl did not take the opportunity to continue its attack. Instead, it guarded the 'Bodhi Leaf' behind it on the branch.

It looked at Fu Ning warily.

"Hoo hoo hoo~"

Its eyes widened, filled with vigilance.

Shen Bijun, now composed, had half of her body hanging onto Fu Ning, her face slightly embarrassed.

"What does it mean? Is it planning to make a nest in the tree?"

Fu Ning was also very puzzled. They had clearly taken possession of the 'Bodhi Leaf', but there was still no intention to pick it.

Suddenly, a thought came to him. "Sister, is this Night Owl a Spirit Beast?"

Shen Bijun nodded. "Of course."

"There is a record in the 'Book of Strange Beasts' that owls are nocturnal spirits and can create wonders in the darkness."

"Could it be... it wants to evolve its own wonder?!"

Each type of Spirit Beast naturally possesses a unique wonder.

Just like the Cloud Spirit Turtle can breathe underwater, the Jade Rabbit can concoct and test medicine, and the Dusk Crow can summon ghosts.

Since the Night Owl in front of them is also a Spirit Beast, it naturally possesses its own unique wonder.

The wonder of a Spirit Beast can advance through evolution.

If the wonder advances, the bloodline of the Spirit Beast itself will also advance.

Therefore, for a Spirit Beast, evolving its wonder is just as important as a Scenic Scholar's cultivation and visualization.

Fu Ning looked at the Wuhuan Tree. The Night Owl spread its wings on the tree, seemingly declaring its territory.

"Yes, the 'Bodhi Leaf' can increase the efficiency of evolution. It seems that it wants to wait until nightfall to pick it."

"Why doesn't it pick it now?"

"It should be related to its wonder. The Night Owl's wonder can only be brought out at night, and during the day, it is afraid of sunlight, which affects its flying ability."

"The 'Bodhi Leaf' emits golden light and fragrance. The Night Owl doesn't understand sealing techniques. If it rashly picks it, it will easily expose its whereabouts."

"In that case, it's better to take advantage of the cover of the trees and wait for the right moment."
