“You …” Huo yudie subconsciously let out a soft cry. She didn’t think that the well-behaved Lin Yi, who was always impatient with her, would suddenly touch her like this. However, before she could finish her sentence, something happened in front of them.
More than a dozen vines as thick as water buckets suddenly shot up from the ground, bringing with them a terrifying sound of tearing through the air. With a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, they swept in everyone’s direction.
Due to the fact that everything was the same before, everyone was more or less a little careless. The attack of these giant vines was so sudden and fierce that Ren Zhongyuan, Yi Xiaotian, and Yao Jiali, who were walking at the front, did not have any time to react and were instantly whipped by the vines. Only Lin Yi, who was already alert, and Huo yudie, who was pulled by him, barely escaped this disaster.
However, Ren Zhongyuan and the other two were nascent soul realm cultivators after all. Even though they were caught off guard and could not avoid it, they still made a defense response in a hurry.
The moment they were attacked by the giant vine, Ren Zhongyuan and Yi Xiaotian were covered in a layer of golden true energy. The vine seemed to be unable to break through this layer of golden true energy defense. It gave Lin Yi the feeling that it was like the legendary Golden Bell shield.
On the other hand, although Yao Jiali was not as tough as Ren Zhongyuan and the other man, her body movements were extremely agile. Her entire body was like a water snake that was twisting rapidly, and she managed to avoid being hit in her vital parts at the last moment. She was only inevitably grazed a little. Moreover, she was wearing a green soft armor, so she could still withstand the force.
Lin Yi’s eyebrows rose at the sight-the guy’s character wasn’t all that great, but his strength was undeniable. No wonder he was an elite from the East Province Academy-even other peak nascent soul cultivators wouldn’t have been able to react in time like this.
However, the three of them were still covered in dust. Just now, they were almost hit down into the valley by these giant vines and were instantly pulled back. After retreating with great difficulty for a distance, they stared at the pile of giant vines that looked like an octopus monster, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.”What is this thing?!”
While everyone was shocked, Huo yudie couldn’t help but look at Lin Yi. If Lin Yi didn’t pull her back, she would be in the same situation as Ren Zhongyuan and the other two. She wouldn’t be injured, but she would be in a very sorry state.
Everyone carefully retreated while carefully observing the pile of giant vines that had appeared out of thin air. What was surprising was that such a large pile of giant vines actually grew from the same root system. In other words, such an overwhelming momentum actually came from the same plant!
Lin Yi looked at the bottom of the terrifying plant-it was hard to detect because it was hidden in the sand, but he could clearly see that its huge roots were firmly rooted into the mountain path, completely blocking the way forward.
“How can there be such a strange plant?” Seeing that the giant vine was about to attack again, Yao Jiali couldn’t help but exclaim in shock. Everyone couldn’t help but look at each other. Just now, they were still feeling bored, but now, things were going to be fun!
From the exchange of blows just now, they could feel that this giant vine monster’s strength was at least above the great circle of the original level. Even if they joined forces, they might not have much chance of winning against this strange existence.
Huo yudie retreated to a safe distance and observed carefully. She suddenly said,””This is a pseudo-human vine. It’s a vine monster that has gained sentience. I’ve read about it in an ancient book before!”
“Oh?” Lin Yi couldn’t help but be surprised. He’d seen all kinds of powerful spirit beasts, but plants were rare. It wasn’t like he’d never seen one before-at least there was something similar in the back mountain of the North Island. If it wasn’t for the thing scaring them at Banyue Lake, Lin Yi would’ve become a pile of fertilizer.
Although Lin Yi was much weaker back then, his intuition told him that the pseudo-human vine was strong, but not on the same level as the monster in the back mountain of the North Island. After all, the entire Half Moon Lake was the monster’s original body, and even the ghosts couldn’t do anything to it. The pseudo-human vine in front of him clearly wasn’t that strong.
Lin Yi estimated that he should be able to kill the pseudo-human vine based on the fight between Ren Zhongyuan and the others. However, it was hard to say with the strength of the few of them.
“Yes, I remember now!” After listening to Huo yudie’s words, Yi Xiaotian suddenly shouted,””This is the ancient battlefield, and there are remnants of intent and spirit Qi everywhere. The plants here might mutate after absorbing them. That’s how the pseudo-human vine came about!”
“I’m afraid it didn’t just absorb the intent realm and spiritual Qi. Maybe it even devoured the remaining primordial spirits on the battlefield. Otherwise, how could it become such a terrible monster?” Ren Zhongyuan said with a look of fear. He was lucky that he was not injured just now. His protective Golden Bell was almost crushed by the giant vine, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Argh! Then … Then what should we do?” Yao Jiali’s face turned pale with fright. She was the most embarrassed of the three, and the pseudo-human Vine’s intimidation was naturally more profound than the others. She immediately panicked and said,””We’re going to pick the roots. This is the only route we have to take, right?”
“You!” Ren Zhongyuan’s expression changed immediately. He glared at Yao Jiali as if he was very angry that she had revealed the purpose of their trip.
“Uh …” Yao Jiali finally realized that there were more than three of them here. Huo yudie was fine, but there was also an outsider like Lin Yi.
“Forget it, there’s no harm in letting that kid know. It’s none of his business anyway!” Yi Xiaotian tried to smooth things over for her, but it was the truth. Lin Yi was only at the peak of the early stage of nascent soul, and they didn’t care about him at all. They would just give him something for the sake of Shangguan Tianhua’s name, but if he really dared to ask for a rare treasure, they would have to teach him a lesson.
As the three of them were talking, Lin Yi couldn’t help but wonder what the hell was this root thing?
However, in this case, the purpose of these three people was not the same as Huo yudie. That was to say, they did not know that Huo yudie was going to find the Thunder mystical vine?
After thinking about it carefully, it was only normal. Although they were in the same Academy, the competition was so fierce that it could be said that they were like fire and water. It was impossible for them to really exchange what they needed, especially when it involved a strategic treasure like the Thunder mystical vine. Huo yudie was able to know that it was most likely from her master, Liu Ziyu, who was on good terms with the West Island. Ren Zhongyuan and the others might not have such connections.
