Fog City, Lunar Rainbow Inn.
Shen Tian's five hearts faced the heavens as he meditated on the bed.
He had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and his cultivation was not deep yet.
Now, every time he used the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique, he could feel that he had gained a lot.
In the Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique, his control over the corresponding Divine Lightnings of the metal, wood, fire, and earth elements was improving.
Especially the Black Tortoise Divine Lightning, which corresponded to the water element. Shen Tian could already control it like it was his own arm.
He slowly stretched out his right hand, and drops of black liquid flowed down from his fingertips, sparkling with lightning.
That was the result of combining the IX Divine Lightning with the First Essence Heavy Water.
Shen Tian took out the Purple Golden Hammer and attached the IX Divine Lightning to it.
The originally purple-gold hammer instantly turned pitch-black, emitting a heavy pressure.
Shen Tian was confident that with this hammer, he could kill a normal peak Foundation Establishment cultivator with one strike.
Even if it was a Golden Core Perfected Cultivator, if Shen Tian were to get close to him, he would also be killed by the Heavy Water Divine Hammer.
"With my current cultivation, power, and providence, if the Fog Plain is really dangerous, I should be able to hold on!
"It's still not too safe. Never mind, it's better to arm myself to the maximum just in case."
Shen Tian took out a large stack of Lightning Explosion Talismans from his Archeon Sea Ring and put them in his pocket.
Then, he tied the Lotus Shooting Gun to his back, ready to activate the array formation at any time.
Apart from that, Shen Tian also considered whether he should equip the Black Tortoise Armor.
But after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to be so nervous since there was no danger yet.
After all, that thing was made from a turtle shell. Even though the shape was not ugly, it could not be considered ugly.
Although it was not ugly, Shen Tian still felt that the heavy turtle shell-like armor did not match his temperament.
After completing a few Qi Circulations, Shen Tian stood up and was about to eat some snacks and rest.
Suddenly, he heard a shrill scream from outside the window. It was a hair-raising sound.
"Ah, no, wuuuu ~!"
Shen Tian's heart tightened. He quickly opened the window and looked in the direction of the scream.
He saw that the east gate of Fog City was already surrounded by spirit fog.
A series of greenish-black boulders shot out from the spirit mist and heavily smashed into the ground.
These large rocks carried enormous power, collapsing houses and cracking the ground, causing the earth to shake violently.
When the boulders fell to the ground, they quickly cracked open, and giant vines quickly stretched out from within.
Even the shortest of these giant vines was more than a hundred feet long, and the longer ones were more than a thousand feet long, like giant pythons.
Yes, judging from the appearance and shape of these giant vines, they were the most precious specialty of the Fog Plain — Divine Binding Vines.
What was even more amazing was that these giant vines were no longer rooted in the ground like the Fog Plain's Divine Binding Vines.
Their roots were like countless tentacles, supporting their bodies as they wriggled agilely.
The speed at which it wriggled was extremely fast, and it wasn't the slightest bit inferior to those Immortal Dao cultivators who were fighting it!
The scream that Shen Tian heard just now was from a Jindan Period cultivator fighting with a Divine Binding Vine.
He originally thought that he was lucky and could hunt supreme-grade Divine Binding Vines in Fog City.
In the end, he was completely no match for these mutated giant vines, and the giant vines' tentacles reached into his body.
Shen Tian clearly saw that after the vines drilled into that Golden Core Perfected One's body, his whole body rapidly shriveled up.
His body, which was originally full of essence energy, directly withered and shattered like rotten wood in just a few breaths' time.
This kind of special Divine Binding Vine was many times scarier than the ones the cultivators had seen in the Fog Plain.
Or rather, this kind of battle prowess... was the Divine Binding Vine's true power. Those from before were just defective products!
"There's indeed danger. How could even Fog City be breached!?"
Shen Tian's heart tightened, and he hurriedly controlled the Lotus Shooting Gun to fly into his right hand, while his left hand was already holding a stack of Lightning Explosion Talismans.
At the same time, he walked toward the room where Eunuch Gui and the others were. "There's danger. Retreat!"
In fact, Eunuch Gui and the others had already discovered the danger and were rushing toward Shen Tian's room.
Zhang Yunxi revealed a rare serious expression. "There's something strange about this spirit fog!
"I've checked just now. Other than the west city gate, all the other city gates have been sealed by the spirit fog.
"Now, all divine consciousness detection in Fog City is affected, and Sword Kinesis Flight is also unstable."
Sword Kinesis Flight was about using divine consciousness and Dharmic powers to control the Dharma artifact, thereby stabilizing the flying sword under one's feet.
If one only had Dharmic powers and no precise divine consciousness control, the Dharma artifact would be like a car without a steering wheel, and it would instantly cause a car accident.
Shen Tian frowned slightly. "This spirit fog actually knows to surround the main city first and then invade. There must be a powerful expert plotting this.
"Senior Sister, let's avoid these Divine Binding Vines first and think of a way to rush to the west city gate as soon as possible to break through!"
Shen Tian did not plan to jump out. After all, he was only at the early-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.
Even if he was more talented, he could at most fight against a Jindan Period Perfected One.
However, Shen Tian looked up and saw that even Nascent Soul Supremacies had appeared in the sky above the palace.
Seven Nascent Soul Supremacies had appeared in one go, and every one of them was extremely powerful.
Even so, they were still entangled by several 1,000-feet-long giant vines and could not escape.
If Shen Tian rashly joined the battle and encountered a Nascent Soul giant vine, wouldn't he be sucked dry in an instant?
At such a time, self-preservation was more important!
Zhang Yunxi nodded slightly. Although she was proud, she was not an idiot who did not know when to advance or retreat.
The Hidden Fog Country had been established for so many years, so it naturally had powerful trump cards to protect the main city.
At such a time, she needed to protect her and her companions' lives first.
She pulled out the White Tiger Sword behind her and protected everyone as they rushed to the west city gate.
As a Golden Core Eighth Refinement Stage cultivator, Zhang Yunxi's battle prowess was unparalleled.
She walked on the streets, and all the Divine Binding Vines that blocked her were all cut off with one slash of her sword.
Wherever the White Tiger Sword passed, greenish-black juice would splatter, dyeing the streets into a mess.
Meanwhile, Shen Tian very consciously started to "pick up the corpses" and quickly kept those broken vines.
After all, they were Divine Binding Vines, and they were the kind that could walk on their own. They were definitely rare mutated supreme-grade items!
If he kept these broken vines, he could use them to refine Divine Binding Ropes in the future. Wouldn't it be better?
Looking at the valiant and powerful Zhang Yunxi, Shen Tian heaved a sigh of relief.
Indeed, the choice of bringing Senior Sister Yunxi out to train was the right one.
...
However, Zhang Yunxi's strength quickly attracted the giant vines' attention.
Soon, three Divine Binding Vines that were more than 1,000-feet-long rushed toward Zhang Yunxi.
The strength of these three Divine Binding Vines far surpassed the one that Zhang Yunxi had killed before.
Be it their toughness or agility, or even their reaction and cooperation when facing attacks, they were like intelligent humans.
The three Divine Binding Vines joined forces and actually made Zhang Yunxi unable to escape in a short period of time.
At the same time, a few 100-feet-long Jindan Period Divine Binding Vines also suddenly attacked and pounced toward Shen Tian and the others.
The situation instantly started to deteriorate rapidly.
