As soon as the four-faced individual finished speaking, the entire dense forest within a radius of several thousand kilometers seemed to come alive. Countless vines sprouted from the branches, whipping wildly at the people surrounding the dense forest.
The Nine Gloom Vine's attack came almost without any warning. The vines that filled the sky covered the sun and covered the entire area.
The hundreds of high-level Heavenly Gods who could still stand did not have time to react at all. Some of them had their bodies pierced by countless vines and turned into sieves, while others were ground into minced meat by the entangling vines …
In less than half a second, the army of several thousand was completely annihilated.
In the world of vines that covered the sky, only four figures were unaffected. They did not even move half a step.
This wave of the Nine Gloom Vine's attack was not enough to shake the four overlord-level powerhouses.
"Nine Gloom, this might work on scaring the juniors, but don't you think you're underestimating us a little too much by using this against us?" Giant Sarcoma's voice, which sounded like squirming flesh, sounded faintly as if he thought nothing of the other party's attack.
However, at this moment, Crimson Eye suddenly issued a warning.
"Watch out!"
Before he could finish his sentence, several hundred thick vines that were intertwined with each other suddenly burst out of the ground, turning into a giant net that wrapped around the three-tailed snake lady.
Before the others could rescue her, the giant net contracted instantly, dragging the three-tailed snake lady underground.
A scarlet light flashed in Silver Armor's eyes. Just as he was about to charge deep into the dense forest, he saw the thousands of Heavenly Gods who had collapsed earlier stand up one by one.
This was the Nine Gloom Vine's technique — demonic seed.
He could plant demonic seeds in corpses and turn them into his puppets.
Corpses with demonic seeds would not only inherit most of the abilities from when they were alive, but they would also possess many of the Nine Gloom Vine's abilities. They would be even more powerful than when they were alive, almost equivalent to the Nine Gloom Vine's clones.
Furthermore, as long as the demonic seeds were not destroyed, these puppets would never fall.
They would stand up again and again and charge.
Silver Armor blasted the Heavenly God puppets one by one with his punches. However, he soon noticed that the bodies, which had almost been reduced to a bloody pulp, were reforming at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, they returned to the battlefield.
Crimson Eye and Giant Sarcoma quickly noticed this as well.
No matter how many times they killed these puppets, they could quickly recover and rejoin the battle.
Of the three of them, Xue Tong was the most helpless. His soul attacks broke the souls of these puppets again and again, but their souls always reformed.
After fighting for over ten minutes, Silver Armor finally could not help but use his weapon.
Originally, when dealing with these small fries, he disdained to use his true strength. However, this endless entanglement made him a little angry. He took out his weapon — the Black Dragon Spear!
The grade of Silver Armor's Black Dragon Spear had already surpassed ordinary god sequence relics. It could even be considered a pseudo-Dao-level weapon.
It could be said that only when Silver Armor wielded the Black Dragon Spear could he be considered Silver Armor in his complete form.
With just a casual swing of his spear, he completely obliterated a puppet that was pouncing on him into nothingness.
After this attack, the puppet did not come back to life.
Silver Armor finally found a way to deal with these puppets. He immediately sent a voice transmission to the other two.
"I know what the problem is. We must destroy their physical bodies completely. Not a single drop of flesh and blood can be left!"
Silver Armor had indeed found the crux of the problem. In order to break Nine Gloom's puppet technique, he had to destroy the demonic seeds he had planted in the puppets.
The demonic seeds he had planted had a strong will to survive. They would automatically hide in a safe place when they were attacked.
Even if there was only a drop of blood or a sliver of flesh left, the demonic seeds could hide in it and survive, waiting for an opportunity to reform.
This was also why the puppets could come back to life even if they were ground into mincemeat.
The only way to destroy the demonic seeds in the puppets was to completely obliterate the puppets' physical bodies and souls so that they would lose their host completely. In the absence of a host, the Demon Seed planted by Nine Gloom was extremely fragile. Any high-level Heavenly God could destroy it.
After obtaining the solution from Silver Armor, Giant Sarcoma and Crimson Eye quickly went into hunting mode.
"Since that's the case, it's easy!"
Giant Sarcoma's tentacles reached out in a frenzy. Wrapped in the destructive tentacles, they pierced through the puppets' bodies one by one.
The Heavenly God puppets' bodies rapidly faded, then turned into nothingness at a speed visible to the naked eye.
On the other side, Crimson Eye's countless small eyes lit up. Beams of black light shot out and enveloped the Heavenly God puppets.
The Death Black Radiance that contained the Order of Extinction instantly turned the puppets into ashes.
…
While the battle raged outside, deep in the dense forest, the three-tailed snake lady had already broken free from the giant net.
In front of her stood two powerful enemies, the four-faced individual and the Nine Gloom Vine.
"Three-tailed, I don't want to attack you. I'll give you two choices now. Either you join us and fight against those three fellows outside, or you leave. Swear never to participate in the fight for the castellan's seal ever again! "The four-faced individual did not attack immediately.
"What if I don't choose either?" The three-tailed snake lady laughed coldly.
"Then die here!" However, the Nine Gloom Vine did not have the patience to waste time with her. He could already sense that the puppets outside were rapidly dying out. They would not be able to stop Silver Armor and the other two for long.
Without waiting for the four-faced individual to say anything else, he attacked without hesitation.
The vines that filled the sky surged toward the three-tailed snake lady like a tsunami.
The reason he had captured the three-tailed snake lady first was that she was the weakest among the six overlords. However, he had not expected that after he had captured her, the four-faced individual would still care about their old friendship and not cooperate with him to kill her immediately.
Fortunately, after seeing the Nine Gloom Vine attack, the four-faced individual did not stop him.
A hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but it turned into determination in an instant.
The moment the Nine Gloom Vine attacked, he attacked as well.
A giant twelve-armed beast materialized above his head, and its heavy fist came crashing down along with the vines that filled the sky …
The three-tailed snake lady's eyes turned scarlet instantly, and her figure split into three.
One summoned a sky full of black water, one opened its mouth and spat out endless purple mist, and the last transformed into a giant black python. Its giant tail lashed out and collided with the giant arms.
Wherever the sky full of black water passed by, countless vines were corroded and devoured.
The giant snake's tail collided with the giant arms' heavy fist with a loud bang, sending up an endless storm.
However, very soon, the consumption of the black water could not keep up with the growth of the vines. The vines that filled the sky gradually covered the black water.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the giant snake's tail was also battered by the heavy fists after each collision.
The three-tailed snake lady's abilities were the weakest to begin with. She would most likely lose if she were to fight any one of the five overlords, let alone now that she was fighting one against two.
As expected, the battle had not even begun for five minutes, and she was already showing signs of defeat.
In reality, she was well aware of this. Therefore, when she was only slightly at a disadvantage, she decisively chose to give up fighting. She withdrew her two clones and hid in the purple mist …
