Lin Yun didn't care and chanted a simple character. Four fire vortexes appeared in front of him, and a three-meter-long golden-red spear came out of the fire vortexes. Golden runes were carved on the spear, and golden-red flames spread out.
When the golden spear completely emerged from the flame whirlpool, only then did they see a huge hand condensed from flames holding the golden spear tightly.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp sound echoed as the huge hand holding the golden spear fell from the sky and ruthlessly pierced the Mana Devouring Vine's main body, nailing it to the ground.
The Mana Devouring Vine frantically struggled like a hundred-meter-long snake. It constantly thrashed its body, and its huge body struck the trunk of the Wisdom Tree, causing the entire branch to tremble.
Lin Yun sneered. He had spent so much effort just to find its main body. Those vines were only clones of the Mana Devouring Vine. As long as the Mana Devouring Vine's main body didn't die, it could have as many clones as it wanted. It wouldn't be able to kill them all even if it died of exhaustion.
A large number of vines pressed over from behind, and just as they were about to wrap around Lin Yun, three Fire God Spears flew out of the other three vortexes in front of Lin Yun.
The three Fire God Spears flew out and easily pierced through the Mana Devouring Vine's body, nailing it to the ground while it was struggling frantically.
The golden-red flames slowly burned like a plague, quickly spreading to all parts of the Mana Devouring Vine's main body. The vines extending from the main body were all cut off at the same time.
Facing such a huge danger, the Mana Devouring Vine instinctively gave up on the other clones and focused all its power on its main body.
The green vines wrapping around Lin Yun started withering in an instant.
The vines that had been as bright as emeralds were now like dead snakes. They all softened, and within a few seconds, they all turned yellow and turned into a pile of rotten wood.
In an instant, only that dark green Mana Devouring Vine's main body could be seen. Lin Yun waved his Draconic Staff and a large amount of flames rained down, transforming into a sea of flames that wrapped around the Mana Devouring Vine.
As the raging flames burned, there seemed to be a burst of sharp screams coming out. After a dozen seconds, the golden-red flames soared and completely enveloped the Mana Devouring Vine. The frantic struggle in the flames also came to an abrupt end.
Lin Yun waved his hand, dispersing the flames. There was only a charred Mana Devouring Vine in front of him.
At this time, the others rushed over from the rear. Zeuss couldn't help looking at Lin Yun. Ever since he fused with the Book of Mantras and advanced to the 9th Rank, Lin Yun's strength had risen too quickly.
That was a level 38 Mana Devouring Vine, yet it had been so easily beheaded. From the sneak attack, it had been suppressed by Lin Yun from start to finish. All of the Mana Devouring Vine's attacks had been clearly calculated, and every time it attacked, it was strangled.
It could be said that the Mana Devouring Vine hadn't been able to display its true strength from start to finish, it had died of suffocation.
After its main body was discovered, it was immediately burned by corrosive flames. It was then nailed to the ground by the Fire God Spear and forcibly burned to death.
But Lin Yun's strength didn't give Zeuss any sense of security. On the contrary, it made him even more worried.
A 7th Rank Magic Apprentice wouldn't feel safe in Constance's God Nation even if he had a Heaven Mage accompanying him.
Zeuss felt even more insecure if he stayed on the Intrepid. After experiencing the strange experience on the Intrepid, who knew what else was on that damned Ghost Ship.
"Merlin, let's hurry up and leave this place. This kind of Mana Devouring Vine wouldn't be the only one under normal circumstances. There isn't a single living thing in this place, it must have already been completely killed by this Mana Devouring Vine. It wouldn't be good if there were other Mana Devouring Vines …"
Zeuss was anxious, but he still suppressed his temper and tried to persuade Lin Yun. The frightening encounter on the Intrepid made Zeuss's hair stand on end when he saw this kind of thing that could absorb mana. Especially since this Mana Devouring Vine looked very similar to the tentacles of that monster on the Intrepid. That kind of fear couldn't be suppressed from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Yun didn't pay attention to the terrified Zeuss and took out a few spirit mana crystals.
Zeuss' expression instantly turned deathly pale as he shrieked in alarm.
"Merlin, hurry, hurry up and put them away! These mana crystals are a fatal temptation to the Mana Devouring Vines …"
Zeuss didn't have time to finish his words when he heard clear mana fluctuations coming from the distant underbrush. Vines directly rushed out of the underbrush, no longer thinking of ambushing them. Instead, they crazily charged towards Lin Yun.
The mana fluctuations of living lifeforms could be sensed by the Mana Devouring Vines from a dozen kilometers away. If it was a pure mana crystal, it would be like a lighthouse in the night within ten kilometers. That huge temptation would make the Mana Devouring Vines go crazy.
The mana fluctuations emitted by five spirit mana crystals were enough to make the Mana Devouring Vines fight.
No less than five Mana Devouring Vines rushed over, and this time, these Mana Devouring Vines didn't even hide their main body. Their dark green main body was accompanied by their jade-like clones as they rushed over.
Xiuban, who was standing in the distance, swung Carnage, only to discover that the vines were going crazy. They didn't even dodge Xiuban's attacks and only focused on attacking Lin Yun.
Anderfa controlled the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and a large number of fire spells transformed into a flood that washed over the vines. Ever since he switched to the Lava Heart, the power of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had already reached its current limit. The Mana Devouring Vines, who were completely focused on the spirit mana crystals, simply didn't care about these attacks.
A large number of vines were burnt, and even one of the Mana Devouring Vines was submerged by the flood of fire spells, but it still didn't stop charging towards Lin Yun.
On this side, Lin Yun's attacks were even more simple and quick. A Fire God Spear and a Sea of Fire were enough to burn a Mana Devouring Vine to ashes.
In less than five minutes, the battle was over.
At this time, the frightened Zeuss moved to Lin Yun's side and tried to console him. "Merlin, we don't know what dangers lie here. Taking the initiative to provoke those Mana Devouring Vines isn't wise, it's better to be a bit more cautious …"
Zeuss was tactful, but everyone could see that he disapproved of Lin Yun's actions.
Lin Yun smiled but didn't explain. He turned to Xiuban and shouted, "Xiuban, go dig out the mana crystals of these Mana Devouring Vines."
Xiuban liked to clean up the battlefield the most, especially when fighting a large group of magic beasts. He could always stuff some of the mana crystals into his pocket.
Soon, Xiuban held five dark green mana crystals the size of an infant's fist as he arrived in front of Lin Yun.
"Xiuban, I see that you are itching for a beating."
Lin Yun raised his eyelids and spat out an incomprehensible word. A burning flame suddenly appeared next to him.
Xiuban's complexion turned deathly pale when the flame appeared, and his legs started shivering. He unhesitantly threw himself on the ground and fished out another dark green mana crystal from his pocket.
"Sir Merlin, I won't dare to do it again …"
Just as Xiuban took out the mana crystal, the flames floating beside Lin Yun transformed into Flame Shackles that instantly coiled around Xiuban's body and pulled him into the underbrush on the side. Cracking sounds and Xiuban's blood-curdling screams kept echoing in Lin Yun's ears.
Lin Yun smiled as he put away the 6th Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal. Hearing Xiuban's blood-curdling screams, his mood couldn't help becoming a lot better.
That Draconic Beastman had to be dealt with by Syudos. If he didn't deal with him for a while, he would become smug. Moreover, Syudos had been thrown into the Bone Plane to clean up the Undeads. Ever since he fell on the Intrepid, Lin Yun had been unable to open the Bone Plane's Planar Path.
Syudos had been thrown into that desolate Bone Plane, and no one had paid attention to him for such a long time. His mood could very well be imagined. When he saw Xiuban looking like he had done something wrong, he didn't even need Lin Yun to call him over and beat him up.
Lin Yun put away the six level 38 mana crystals, and Zeuss, who was standing on the side, looked at Lin Yun's expression as if he had picked up a treasure.
Especially beating Xiuban up for this, Zeuss felt that it wasn't worth it.
"Although these level 38 mana crystals are precious, it isn't worth it to take such a risk …"
Lin Yun smiled and casually said, "These aren't ordinary level 38 mana crystals. In terms of value, even if they can't compare to a level 40 mana crystal, they are almost there …"
Zeuss was alarmed, disbelief written all over his face. He wasn't an ignorant bumpkin. The Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystals were a bit precious only because there weren't many plant-type magic beasts with mana crystals. A level 38 Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal was at most a bit better than an ordinary level 38 mana crystal, how could it be comparable to a level 40 mana crystal?
In terms of value, even the worst level 39 mana crystal was a lot better than this level 38 Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal.
Lin Yun glanced at Zeuss, who looked like he was trying to trick him. He didn't even have the desire to explain.
It wasn't that Zeuss was a bumpkin, but rather that their knowledge was too different. No matter how experienced Zeuss was, he absolutely couldn't know what would happen 2,300 years later.
There was nothing special about the Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal, this was only the general consensus of this era.
2,300 years later, an Archmage named Orson accidentally discovered the mysteries of the Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal during an alchemy experiment.
In fact, the mana contained within the Mana Devouring Vine's mana crystal wasn't very powerful, it was even inferior to an ordinary mana crystal of the same level. It was only because it was a plant-type magic beast's mana crystal that it was a bit more precious.
