"You …" Huo Yudie subconsciously whispered. She didn't expect that Lin Yi, who had always been well-behaved and could even be said to be impatient with her, would suddenly make a move. However, before she could finish speaking, there was a sudden change in front of them.
More than a dozen vines as thick as buckets suddenly soared from the ground, with a terrifying sound of breaking through the air, they swept towards the direction of the crowd at a speed that was difficult to be seen by the naked eye!
Because of the previous repetition, everyone was more or less careless at the moment, and the attack of these giant vines was so sudden and so fierce that Ren Zhongyuan, Yi Xiaotian, and Yao Jiali, who were walking at the front, had no chance to react at all, and were instantly hit by these vines. Only Lin Yi, who was already vigilant, and Huo Yudie, who was pulled by him, barely escaped this disaster.
However, Ren Zhongyuan and the other two were masters of the Yuanying Stage after all. Even if they were caught off guard and could not avoid it, they still made a response in a hurry.
At the moment when they were attacked by this giant vine, Ren Zhongyuan and Yi Xiaotian were covered with a layer of golden true energy at the same time. The vine seemed to be unable to shake the defense of this layer of golden true energy, giving Lin Yi the feeling that it was like the legendary golden bell cover.
As for Yao Jiali, although she was not as rigid as Ren Zhongyuan and Yi Xiaotian, her movement technique was extremely flexible. Her whole body twisted quickly like a water snake. At the last moment, she was barely able to avoid her vital parts, but she was inevitably scratched a little, not to mention that she was wearing a cyan soft armor, so this power was still bearable.
Seeing this, Lin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. Although her character was not good, there was no doubt about her strength. She was worthy of being an elite master from the East Continent Academy. If it was replaced by other masters of the Yuanying Stage, they may not be able to make such a timely response.
However, the three of them were still covered in dirt. They were almost knocked down into the valley by these giant vines just now, and were instantly whipped back. After retreating a distance with great difficulty, they stared at the giant vines in front of them that were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. "What is this thing?!"
While everyone was shocked, Huo Yudie couldn't help but look at Lin Yi. If it weren't for Lin Yi pulling her, she would definitely be like Ren Zhongyuan and the other two at the moment. She would not be injured, but she would definitely be very embarrassed.
Everyone carefully retreated while carefully observing the giant vines that had appeared out of thin air. What was surprising was that such a large number of giant vines actually grew from the same root system. In other words, such an earth-shattering momentum actually came from the same plant!
Lin Yi looked at the bottom of this terrible plant. Previously, it was difficult to detect because it was hidden in the sand, but at this moment, it was clearly seen that its huge roots had firmly penetrated into the entire mountain, completely blocked the road.
"How can there be such a strange plant?" Seeing that the giant vines were about to attack again, Yao Jiali couldn't help but exclaim in horror. Everyone also couldn't help but look at each other. Just now, they felt that it was boring, but now it was really fun!
From the moment of exchange just now, they could feel that this giant vine monster's strength was at least above the Yuanying Stage. Even if they joined forces, they didn't have much chance of winning against this strange existence.
Huo Yudie retreated to a safe distance and carefully observed for a while. Suddenly, she said, "This is a Dummy Vine, a vine monster that has become a spirit. I've seen it in an ancient book before!"
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Lin Yi couldn't help but be a little surprised. He had seen all kinds of powerful spirit beasts, but plants were very rare. However, it wasn't that he had never seen them before. At least, there were similar existences in the mountains behind the north island. During that trip to Half Moon Lake, if it weren't for the ghost that deterred it, Lin Yi would have already become a pile of fertilizer.
Although Lin Yi's strength at that time was much lower than now, his intuition told him that although the Dummy Vine in front of him was strong, it was far from being comparable to the monster in the mountains behind the north island. After all, the entire Half Moon Lake was the body of that guy. Even the ghost couldn't do anything to it, and the Dummy Vine in front of him was obviously not at that level.
Lin Yi evaluated in his heart. Judging from the fight between Ren Zhongyuan and the others and the Dummy Vine just now, with his strength, he should be able to kill the Dummy Vine, but with the strength of the others, it was not so easy to say.
"That's right, I remember!" After listening to Huo Yudie's words, Yi Xiaotian suddenly shouted, "This is the ancient battlefield, and there are remnants of artistic conception and spiritual energy everywhere. After the plants here absorb it, it is very likely that there will be a mutation. That's how the Dummy Vine came about!"
"I'm afraid that it doesn't just absorb artistic conception and spiritual energy. Maybe even the remnant spirit of the battlefield will be swallowed by it. Otherwise, how can it become such a terrible monster?" Ren Zhongyuan said with a look of fear. It was pure luck that he wasn't injured just now. His protective golden bell was almost smashed by the giant vine. If that really happened, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Ah! Then … Then what should we do? " Yao Jiali became more and more frightened. Among the three of them, she was the most embarrassed. The shock that the Dummy Vine brought to her was naturally far more profound than the others. She immediately panicked and said, "We want to pick the long roots, so this is the only way, right?"
"You!" Ren Zhongyuan's face suddenly changed, and he glared at Yao Jiali fiercely. It seemed that he was very angry with her for revealing the purpose of their trip.
"Uh …" Yao Jiali reacted. There were not only the three of them present. Huo Yudie was fine, but there was also an outsider, Lin Yi, behind them.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter if that kid knows. Anyway, it has nothing to do with him!" Yi Xiaotian mediated for her. In fact, Lin Yi was only at the peak of the early Nascent Soul Stage. They didn't put him in their eyes at all. For the sake of Shanghai Tianhua's reputation, they could just give him some things. If he really dared to ask for rare treasures, then they would teach him how to behave.
While the three of them were talking, Lin Yi couldn't help but secretly whisper. What was this long root?
But in this way, the purpose of these three people was not the same as that of Huo Yudie. That was to say, they didn't know that Huo Yudie was going to find the Thunder Xuan Vine?
Thinking about it carefully, it was normal. Although they were in the same school, the fierce competition could be said to be incompatible like fire and water. It was impossible to achieve a real sense of mutual exchange, especially when it came to strategic-level treasures like the Thunder Xuan Vine. Huo Yudie could probably know it from Liu Ziyu, the Master who was on good terms with West Island. People like Ren Zhongyuan might not have this way.
