The shuffling sounds grew louder and louder. It sounded as if countless magical beasts were approaching.
The battle had just ended and everyone was exhausted. They hadn't recovered yet. If they were ambushed by magical beasts now, they would be powerless.
"Be careful!" Ying Chuan and Ying Yue exchanged a look. Their expressions turned grave. They were even more nervous than when they'd encountered the Thousand Flames Sect.
They'd scattered a large amount of medicinal powder in the surroundings. Logically speaking, the magical beasts and plants in this area shouldn't dare to come close.
Whoosh. There was a sharp sound that sounded like a metal whistle. A giant centipede that was five meters long drilled out of the bushes, but that centipede looked very strange.
Its skin was like the bark of a tree, full of wrinkles.
In the middle of its body, there was a huge mouth about the same size as its body. From the huge mouth, blood-red mucus was spitting out.
Its upper body was raised high, and its hundred or so root-like legs kept moving.
Its lower body was like a tree, deeply embedded in the soil. As the centipede twisted, the ground shook violently.
"It's a Scarlet Centipede Tree!" Ying Chuan and Ying Yue's expressions changed when they saw the strange centipede tree.
The centipede tree was a parasitic magical plant. It was a magical vine that parasitized the maggot eggs of a newborn Scarlet Centipede Tree. After a hundred years of growth and absorbing the Scarlet Centipede Tree's flesh, it grew into a powerful half-beast, half-plant magical plant.
This magical plant was highly poisonous. Although it was rooted in the soil, it could move freely in the forest like a magical beast. It could also use earth and fire magic to fight in the forest. It was especially powerful and was the overlord of Weiwu Forest.
Normally, Ying Chuan and the others wouldn't enter Weiwu Forest rashly and attract the Scarlet Centipede Tree's bad luck.
But this time was an exception. Ying Chuan and Ying Yue's main purpose in entering Weiwu Forest was to find this Centipede Tree.
Three years ago, Ying Yue's father was ambushed by the Thousand Flames Sect and was severely poisoned. These years, the Hundred Flames Sect had been searching for an antidote. Half a month ago, Ying Chuan spent a lot of money to inquire at the Magical Arts Pavilion that the Scarlet Centipede's soul crystal could cure the sect leader's poison.
However, because the Scarlet Fire Treant was very difficult to deal with, the Shadow Sect Leader was unwilling to let the two of them take the risk of entering the forest.
This time, the two of them and a few of their disciples also snuck into the forest behind the Sect Leader's back.
It was just that this kind of Treant would usually only appear in the special areas of the Wei Fog Forest. It was even more unexpected that it would suddenly appear here after a fierce battle.
It was obvious that the smell of blood from the fierce battle between the Hundred Cloud Sect and the Thousand Hell Sect had attracted this devil plant.
Ying Yue was a woman, and this was the first time she had seen such an ugly magic plant. Her hand holding the bow couldn't help but tremble.
Woo —
While everyone from the Bailun Sect was still in a daze …
The Scarlet Flame Tree Centipede was like a whirlwind as it whistled through the air. Its vine-like legs grabbed a Hundred Thunder Sect disciple and stuffed him into its mouth.
"Bastard, let go of my junior brother!" Seeing the Tree Barbarian's attack, Ying Chuan's saber light vibrated. He stomped his feet and leaped off the ground.
The saber in his hand was wrapped in a ferocious fighting aura as it pierced towards Shu Yi.
When the Tree Centipede heard the piercing wind from the saber, it paused for a moment. Then, the huge mouth on its abdomen spat out a fierce flame.
The flame could melt metal and melt bone. Ying Chuan's saber looked like it was going to melt the moment it got close.
He threw the saber with all his might. The blade turned into a silver flash and pierced into the Tree Centipede's mouth. He grabbed the captured junior brother with one hand and pushed him back, out of the Tree Centipede's poisonous mouth.
The saber pierced into the Tree Centipede's mouth. The Tree Centipede let out a shrill cry. Its vine-like legs extended countless meters in an instant and wrapped around Ying Chuan's waist, dragging him back.
Ying Chuan didn't panic after losing his saber. He roared and punched the Tree Centipede's vines with dense fighting aura on his fist. He didn't expect that his iron fist, which could shatter a thousand-kilogram boulder, couldn't even move the Tree Centipede's body.
"Senior brother!" Ying Yue and the others had just caught their junior brother. They turned around and saw that Ying Chuan was trapped by the Tree Centipede.
In a moment of desperation, Ying Yue condensed magic power on the bow in her hand. She shot one arrow after another at the Tree Centipede.
The arrows, which carried wind-elemental magic elements, were fast and accurate. They shot towards the Tree Centipede one after another.
Ying Yue's actions completely enraged the Tree Centipede. It let out a sharp and strange sound.
It grabbed Ying Chuan and burrowed into the ground.
"Where's the monster!" The surroundings returned to normal. Ying Yue and the other disciples of the Hundred Ren Sect panicked. For a moment, they couldn't find the whereabouts of the Fiery Red Tree Centipede.
Yun Sheng's black eyes flashed as she searched the ground inch by inch.
"Watch your step! It's the earth elemental super spell, Earth Wave Tremor, "Yun Sheng suddenly shouted.
"What a cunning beast. It knows how to use super spells. I underestimated it."
A brownish-yellow magic array appeared on the ground.
Rumble —
Countless cracks appeared on the ground, as if it had experienced a small-scale earthquake.
The people of the Hundred Ren Sect panicked. Ying Yue couldn't stand still and was about to fall into the cracks.
Woo —
There was another whistling sound. The Tree Centipede, which had disappeared, suddenly burrowed out of the ground. It opened its mouth and was about to swallow Ying Yue.
Ying Yue was about to be swallowed by the Tree Centipede when she felt a hand on her waist. Her body moved back a few meters in an instant, avoiding the Tree Centipede's most fatal attack.
"Thank … Why is it you!" Ying Yue was about to thank her when her mouth opened into a big "O" shape.
Only then did she realize that the hands that held her were slender. The person who saved her was actually the petty criminal she had always looked down on. "Yunsheng."
"Of course it's me." Yun Sheng smiled sweetly. "Miss Ying Yue, your archery skills are not enough to deal with a big guy like the Fiery Red Tree Centipede."
Ying Yue was still grateful, but when she heard that Yun Sheng dared to belittle her archery skills, anger rose in her heart and she was about to explode.
Unexpectedly, a delicate zither appeared in Yun Sheng's hand. The zither looked like jade. Yun Sheng handed it to the disciples of the Hundred Ren Sect. The magic wings on her back flapped gently and she flew toward the Fiery Red Tree Centipede like a shooting star.
"Is she crazy!" Ying Yue saw Yun Sheng holding a zither and confronting the Tree Centipede. It was as if she had seen a ghost.
But what happened next instantly petrified Ying Yue.
Yun Sheng stood in the air as a cold glint flashed through his pitch-black eyes.
Her slender fingers landed on the zither. The strings of the originally simple and unadorned zither were injected with a lot of magic power and suddenly lit up with several rays of light.
