Seeing this scene, Qiu Tu was startled, then quickly stood up, walked quickly to the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom, and looked up at the sky.

In his sight, the phantom of the huge green tree was like a majestic mountain range, towering over the entire New Territories City! Its majestic appearance reached into the sky, as if it wanted to connect heaven and earth.

The rain is like green sap dripping from the leaves, reflected by the phantom, pouring down from the tree crown, hitting the ground, causing ripples.

Looking at the magnificent spectacle that he had never seen before, Qiu Tu looked shocked and unbelievable. He couldn't help but whisper softly,

"What's this?"

After hearing his words, Secretary Bai also picked up the teacup and walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window. Then while looking at the shadow of the giant tree, he said lightly, "This is the shadow of the law."

"When a creature reaches the fourth level, his spirit will become more and more consistent with the path he practices."

"And he will obtain part of the laws of the path he practices, and eventually become his unique shadow of the laws."

"And once the shadow of the law is born, there will be many benefits."

Secretary Bai paused for a moment, and then said, "First, the strength of living beings will be greatly improved."

"Second, the life span of living beings will also be greatly extended because it is consistent with the law."

"For example, the lifespan of ordinary humans is only about 60-70 years on average. But once you reach the fourth level, it is said that your lifespan can be extended to up to two hundred years."

"And even if the lifespan of the physical body has expired, it can be transformed into a spiritual body, transformed into a special existence like a high-level cataclysmic creature, and continue to survive."

"By that time, life expectancy will be longer. No one can tell exactly how long it will be."

Hearing this, Qiu Tu pondered for a moment, and then continued, "But becoming a fourth-level catastrophic and giving birth to the shadow of the law should also have disadvantages, right?"

"For example, you are infected by the law, so your thinking and spirit are increasingly affected by the path you are in?"

“A lot of behaviors have to be more in line with the habits of the pathway?”

Secretary Bai smiled and nodded, "Yes. It is true."

"That's why shelters don't encourage officials to pursue high power."

"Because the stronger the strength, the higher the degree of assimilation by the path."

"The 'Life' path is okay, but if it's the 'Chaos' or 'Destruction' path, you might become a lunatic or a pervert."

Hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly.

He continued to look up at the phantom of the magnificent giant tree composed of countless light spots, and then asked, "So the director has been successfully promoted now?"

"He has swallowed La Riluo?"

Secretary Bai also looked up at the shadow of the giant tree, then shook his head slightly, "Obviously not."

"If the first-order and second-order catastrophic beings are still just ordinary creatures, then the third-order and fourth-order catastrophic ones can be considered true legendary creatures."

"So, whether it is to advance from the second level to the third level, or from the third level to the fourth level, it is not a simple process."

He pointed to the shadow of the giant tree and said, "Situations like this are estimated to continue for 10 days, about half a month."

Hearing this, Qiu Tu asked curiously, "Wouldn't this disturb the ordinary people in New Territories City?"

Secretary Bai chuckled lightly and said, "Do you think the scene in front of us can be seen by ordinary people?"

Qiu Tu's eyes widened slightly, and he had a guess in his mind.

Sure enough, Secretary Bai explained, "This giant tree is actually the projection of the director's law phantom in the boundless sea of ​​​​mind. It is only because this power is too powerful that it appears in the real world."

"But even so, only the Cataclysms who have awakened "Spirit Vision" can see it."

"Ordinary people can't see it."

Qiu Tu nodded slightly when he heard this, feeling a little enlightened: No wonder the close friends outside the door didn't react at all, as if they couldn't see the giant tree. It turned out to be because they couldn't see it.

And at this moment, just when he was thinking this.

Suddenly, his communicator rang.

Qiu Tu touched his pocket, sensed it, and found that it was the security department's special communicator that was ringing.

Even without taking out his communicator, Qiu Tu guessed the person calling and the topic he planned to talk about.

It was obvious that Qin Shuman also saw the phantom of Yan An's law, so he was ready to exchange information with himself.

With this in mind, Qiu Tu said to Secretary Bai, "Old Bai, I'm going out to take a call."

Secretary Bai picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, nodded slightly, and extended his hand to signal.

Qiu Tu strode out of the bedroom.

Outside the bedroom door, Li Xian and Ding Xiaoqi were still guarding there.

When they saw Qiu Tu coming out, the two of them gave a "sweeping" salute.

Qiu Tu motioned quietly towards the inside. They nodded, walked in, and continued to guard Secretary Bai.

Although Qiu Tu believed that Secretary Bai was not a person who would run away or commit suicide or harm himself, he was not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the worst. Now that everyone has been arrested, he must be fully prepared.

In particular, Secretary Bai obviously knows very secrets about Yan Ai and La Riluo.

Qiu Tu still needs him to answer his questions.

Thinking of Yan Ai, Qiu Tu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: he had known that Yan Ai was a scary person, but he didn't expect him to be so scary.

Before, Qiu Tu just wanted to investigate the Qin family and deal with the Qin family. Unexpectedly, Yan Ai caught one of the "little tricks" and immediately got the biggest benefit of the whole incident: forcing the Qin family to join his lineup.

Go inside.

After that, Qiu Tu only relaxed a little, and Yan Ai took advantage of Vice Chairman Tian's mistress case to ask Vice Chairman Tian to provide a full set of new surveillance equipment for the Investigation Bureau. Then he sold Vice Chairman Tian back.

Later, whether it was the "Evil God Case" or the "8.19 Pharmacy Store Robbery Case", whether Yan Ai knew the information in advance or learned the truth after the fact, he was able to obtain huge benefits from it with a few small operations.

Even this time Jia Shu's death.

It seems that Qiu Tu has made the biggest profit, but in fact Yan Ai also made a lot of money.

Not only did he replace a political department minister who was no longer obedient, but he also successfully controlled all the candidates for the new political department minister to be within the circle of his cronies.

In other words, no matter who the new political minister is, he is still his.

And that's not the end. He took control of the Political Department again. He even placed his personal secretary Ji Chen in the Political Department and triple-jumped to become the deputy section chief.

It is simply taking advantage of the profitable part of the whole thing.

Therefore, after Qiu Tu traveled through time, he had been trying to undermine Yan Ai and try to dismantle Yan Ai's power.

However, every time he makes a move, Yan Ai always finds a new direction and turns the crisis into an opportunity.

Just like the matter of swallowing La Riluo and advancing to the fourth level of catastrophe. Qiu Tu guessed that this was probably the result of Yan Ai's plan for a long time.

After knowing all the arrangements La Riluo had made in the past two years, Qiu Tudu successfully deduced that La Riluo's target was Yanyan.

And with Yan Ai's sophistication, he probably discovered some of La Riluo's arrangements earlier than Qiu Tu, and successfully deduced that La Riluo's target was his daughter.

Then he didn't say anything, didn't fight back, and didn't stop La Riluo's conspiracy. Instead, he took advantage of the situation and asked Secretary Bai to join La Riluo and help La Riluo complete the entire plan.

After that, he added fuel to the flames by asking Qiu Tu to cut off several of La Riluo's hands and feet, forcing La Riluo to trust Secretary Bai, thereby completely controlling La Riluo's movements.

In the end, La Riluo was completely pulled into his trap.

This series of operations is both vicious and sophisticated.

He was like a silent spider, weaving a huge web for La Riluo, and then quietly watched La Riluo sink deeper and deeper, and finally captured La Riluo completely!

The more he thought about it, the more Qiu Tu was amazed at Yan Ai's scheming and terrifying depth of mind. So he walked to the end of the corridor, picked up the phone, and prepared to chat with Qin Shuman about this topic.

The call was connected, and Qin Shuman's voice immediately came from the receiver, "Qiu Tu, have you seen the shadow of the law?"

Qiu Tu replied, "I saw it."

As he spoke, he paused and added, "Not only did I see it, but I also know the inside story of this matter."

Qin Shuman's call this time was indeed to discuss information with Qiu Tu. So when she heard that Qiu Tu knew the inside story, her voice suddenly became a little joyful, "You do have special information channels."

"As expected, I found you right."

Qiu Tu smiled and didn't care about Qin Shuman's praise or offer a price - with Qin Shuman's intelligence, Qin Shuman would give a reasonable price even if he didn't mention it.

Therefore, he told the story of Yan Ai's design of La Riluo in detail, and finally succeeded in swallowing La Riluo.

Qin Shuman on the other side of the phone was obviously stunned as he patiently listened to the whole story and twists and turns.

She was silent for more than ten seconds, and then slowly said, "I was still guessing who the catastrophic person who caused this vision was."

"I thought it was Director Tang at first, but unexpectedly it turned out to be Director Yan."

Speaking of this, Qin Shuman couldn't help but add, "It's really surprising."

Qiu Tu smiled and said with emotion, "Who says it's not the case?"

Maybe because Qin Shuman is one of the people in the world who has the closest relationship with Qiu Tu, so after chatting for a while, Qiu Tu's mood actually relaxed.

Relaxing your mood will speed up your thinking speed.

So when Qin Shuman asked softly, "What about Qiu Tu? What are you going to do now?" Qiu Tu actually had some new ideas in his mind.

He did not tell his plan immediately, but first asked, "Shuman. If I prevent Yan Ai from advancing now, will I be sheltered?"

Before Qiu Tu finished speaking, Qin Shuman interrupted him, "Yes, and not only the eighth shelter. You will even become the public enemy of all shelters."
