He had prepared a total of 41 strips of cloth, which should have been more than enough.
When he used them all up, he instinctively looked up at the sky but could still only see the dense canopy of the Ancient Banyan Tree. Turning back, he checked the cloth markers he had left; there were no issues.
He could clearly see and find every single marker.
Qin Niu now felt completely hopeless.
He had never imagined there could be such an evil tree in the world. He had only heard of willow and locust trees harboring heavy Yin energy and being prone to strange occurrences.
In Taoist texts, there were often mentions of locust trees gathering spirits and willow branches fending off ghosts.
Some Taoists who kept minor ghosts would whip them with willow branches to force them to obey.
But he had never heard of an Ancient Banyan Tree being evil!
