After waiting in place for a while, Lu Qingshan finally decided to go closer to investigate after seeing that there was no movement.
He silently felt the changes in the vitality hidden under the ground.
As he was about to approach the land of vitality, a strong sense of danger surged from his heart.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Lu Qingshan immediately used the Five Elements Sword Armor.
Five layers of sword curtains of different colors immediately surrounded him and protected him.
Hiss! Hiss!
Two thick and long green vines suddenly stretched out from the land of vitality. Like the tentacles of an octopus, they were incomparably fast. They turned into afterimages and pierced towards Lu Qingshan, as if they wanted to directly penetrate him.
Bang!
Although the green vines' attack was swift and fierce, the defensive power of Lu Qingshan's Five Elements Sword Armor was astonishing.
Facing the layers of protection of the Five Elements Sword Armor, the green vines' attack did not succeed. Under the fierce sword energy of the sword armor, a layer of wood chips was scraped off.
But this was not the end.
Taking a beating without fighting back was a body cultivator, not a sword cultivator.
The saying of a sword cultivator was, "If you hit me, I will kill you."
Lu Qingshan did the same.
In the roar of thunder, another sound of thunder rang out. It was mixed with the roar of thunder, and there was no sense of disharmony.
The sword gave birth to the sound of thunder.
The Dragon Sparrow left the body, and its speed was many times faster than the two green vines.
Chi!
Chi! The sword not only gave birth to thunder, but also fire.
The flames on the Dragon Sparrow flourished, and it easily cut the two vines into two.
"The vitality of these green vines is actually so long?"
Lu Qingshan's heart skipped a beat.
This was because he discovered that the green vine that he had cut into two was actually still able to move after falling to the ground. It was crawling in the midst of the lightning.
As for the two vines that were connected to the ground, they were rapidly shrinking.
As expected, when cutting weeds, one must remove the roots.
Lu Qingshan's eyes were cold. The flames on the Dragon Sparrow rose again. Like an illusion, it slashed at the green vines again and again. When the vines completely sank into the ground, they were cut into dozens of pieces and burned to ashes.
However, in the end, a section of each of the two green vines hid underground.
Not long after, the vitality completely disappeared.
"He's fast, knows how to launch sneak attacks, extremely hard to kill, and knows how to escape." Lu Qingshan's heart stirred slightly.
Although there were only two green vines, these characteristics made him feel that these green vines were sentient … Or rather, who was controlling them?
Lu Qingshan's frown deepened as he sensed that the vitality of the land where the green vines had drilled out had completely disappeared.
This place was becoming more and more unusual.
He put away the sword armor, but the lightning attacks around him did not disappear.
He could either advance or retreat. In any case, he couldn't just stand there and waste his spiritual energy and do nothing.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Qingshan finally chose to move forward.
…
It was not suitable to fly in a place where heavenly lightning appeared.
Flying in the air, because of the aura, it was easy to become a human-shaped lightning rod.
Lu Qingshan chose to speed up. He lowered his body slightly and rushed forward. However, he released his consciousness and paid attention to the changes in the vitality of the land.
As he rushed forward, suddenly, from the ground in front of him, another green vine suddenly slapped toward him.
This green vine was several times thicker than the two he had encountered before.
A huge force of impact whistled toward him.
As the green vine waved, it even brought about a whistling wind, blowing Lu Qingshan's hair behind him.
The wind was biting cold like a knife.
Lu Qingshan had been vigilant all along. Perhaps he had already predicted this vine's attack with the help of vitality.
Therefore, almost at the same time, the Dragon Sparrow also whistled out of his body the moment the vine appeared.
A sword pierced through the green vine.
The green vine was immediately cut in two.
After this sword strike, the vines that had swaggered outwards rapidly shrank back into the ground at a speed twice as fast as when they had attacked Lu Qingshan. They disappeared.
"You can't beat people up, but you sure can run away quickly," Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed coldly. He took another pill to recover his spiritual energy and continued forward.
.....
In the darkness, a pair of dark green eyes suddenly opened.
Around this pair of green eyes, countless green vines were wriggling.
Sizzle!
At this moment, three extremely short vines were swaying, as if complaining.
If Lu Qingshan was here, he would definitely recognize that these three vines were the ones he had cut into their current unlucky state.
"Why is someone here so early?" A gloomy voice sounded in the darkness, as if talking to himself. "And a human … No, the human bloodline is too weak. He doesn't have much of a future. I don't care about him at all.
I'd better chase him away quickly so that he won't ruin my plans.
When the Thunder-Generating Fruit ripens, the great demons it attracts will have bloodlines that are barely passable … Although they're far inferior to my own bloodline, it's impossible for me to get a better one now … "
.....
Lu Qingshan moved cautiously along the way. He was on full alert as he advanced swiftly in the Thunder God Pool.
At this moment, even if the surrounding lightning did not suddenly erupt, its might was already two to three times stronger than before.
"I should be close to the core area," Lu Qingshan judged.
At this point, he had already used all of the lightning-repelling Celestial Artifacts he had purchased in Giant Bear City.
Four or five defensive Artifacts isolated the lightning like a tortoise's shell.
This place was too strange. Lu Qingshan was afraid that there would be other changes the next time he came here. Hence, he increased his speed again. He was prepared to charge into the core area in one go and see if the Thunder-Generating Fruit really existed.
"Oh no!" Lu Qingshan's expression suddenly changed. He retreated rapidly without hesitation.
He sensed a terrifyingly enormous life force appearing abruptly from the ground in front of him.
"Boom!"
An extremely terrifying whistling sound was heard.
A green vine as thick as a giant python grew out and lashed out across the sky.
As Lu Qingshan retreated, the Dragonsparrow had already streaked across the sky.
This time, he did not hold back at all.
Borrowing the Immortal True Intent to evolve the Slaughter Sword Intent, the Unity realm Slaughter Sword Intent was greatly enhanced. It was attached to the Dragonsparrow and blasted toward the giant vine.
The two clashed.
The outcome was completely different from before.
Under the effect of the Immortal True Intent, Lu Qingshan's Flying Sword's might was qualitatively enhanced. It directly chopped the thick vine into fine powder.
The powder scattered in the air.
"You're courting death." Lu Qingshan only snorted coldly.
In order to conserve his Spiritual Power, he had not used his Sword Intent when he used the Flying Sword earlier. That was why the three vines were lucky enough to escape with their tails cut off.
He did not expect that the green vine would dare to attack him again.
This time, under his full strength, even though the vine was much stronger than before, it was still directly chopped into powder by him.
.....
"Hmm?"
A soft sound of acknowledgment was heard in the darkness.
He had wanted to chase away the human who had rashly intruded into this place, but he did not expect to suffer such a vicious blow.
He could sense that the power of this move was qualitatively different from before.
After thinking for a while, the person who controlled the green vine released his perception and sensed carefully. After a while, he muttered, "That's not right. It's only an Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Since when could Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators be so strong …
Could it be that the Daoist Clan has undergone some unexpected changes during this period of time, causing their strength to increase greatly?
That's impossible. That shouldn't be the case. A few years ago, there was also a Nascent Soul cultivator who barged into this place. He was very ordinary. I didn't even have to do anything, and he fled with his tail between his legs.
If that's the case, it should be that this Nascent Soul cultivator's methods are more brilliant … "
However, he did not think too much about it. "Looks like I'll have to use more methods … Otherwise, if he really manages to barge into this place, it'll be bad …"
.....
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
In the Thunder God Pool, after killing the green vine, Lu Qingshan had not even caught his breath when three more green vines appeared out of thin air and swung toward him.
Moreover, when the three green vines swung about, they even stirred up the power of lightning around them.
The Thunder God Pool seemed to be boiling. Bolts of lightning crackled and crackled as they descended into chaos.
The lightning danced like electric snakes and bit toward him.
Lu Qingshan let out a low cry. With a wave of his right hand, the Dragon Sparrow and Peach Blossom flew out together.
It was the green vines that had triggered the lightning tide. As long as he killed the three green vines, he might be able to calm the lightning tide.
"Sizzle!"
In the face of the two flying swords that were moving swiftly and producing thunderous sounds, the lightning bolts condensed into a ball of lightning and blasted toward the two flying swords.
"Boom! Boom!
Boom! "The two flying swords collided with the ball of lightning. In the explosion that was so loud that it even covered the sound of thunder, the ball of lightning collapsed and exploded. The lightning within it overflowed and wandered in the surrounding space.
However, after the lightning, the spot where Lu Qingshan had been was empty. "Sizzle! Sizzle!
Sizzle! "
When he looked again, Lu Qingshan had already passed through the lightning and appeared in front of the three green vines.
He used the Shapeless Sword Release. His body and sword merged. Under the cover of the Dragon Sparrow and Peach Blossom, he passed through the Forgetting River and instantly crossed the area where the lightning was rioting and approached the green vines.
"Die!"
Lu Qingshan held the Forgetting River in his hand and slashed three times in a row. Intense Sword Qi erupted from the sword and rolled toward the three green vines.
Even if an ordinary sword style could cut the green vines in half, it would be impossible to kill it.
However, Lu Qingshan's sword was accompanied by countless Sword Qi. In an instant, the green vines were completely shredded.
The green vines were instantly broken into countless pieces and fell to the ground. Under the wandering lightning snakes, they turned into ashes and scattered in all directions.
When the three green vines were dealt with, the violent lightning tide suddenly calmed down.
"As expected," Lu Qingshan murmured.
When the green vines were destroyed, the lightning tide calmed down!
"Whoosh!"
The whistling sound was heard again and the lightning tide moved again.
"Again!" Lu Qingshan's expression changed.
This time, ten green vines as thick as giant pythons shot out from the surrounding lightning covered ground like long snakes. They intertwined with each other in mid-air and shot out violently, wanting to pierce through Lu Qingshan.
Even if Lu Qingshan had a card up his sleeve, he still felt that it was quite difficult to deal with at this time.
Although the ten green vines looked terrifying, they still could not do anything to him.
The problem was that there were only three green vines just now. After he killed them, there were suddenly ten of them.
If these ten green vines were all chopped off by him, would there be twenty, or even thirty vines left?
A sense of danger rose in his heart, but Lu Qingshan's hands did not stop at all. The Dragon Sparrow and Peach Blossom transformed into surging sword lights with the momentum of flying swords and surged out.
As for himself, he held the Forgetfulness River and rushed out, attacking the green vines closest to him.
Sword Qi crisscrossed on the three-foot-long sword, and the flying sword produced a thunderous roar.
While fighting with the green vines, Lu Qingshan tried to move deeper into the Thunder God Pool, trying to shake off these green vines.
However, the green vines were not stationary. When Lu Qingshan moved, they would disappear from the ground and then emerge from the ground extremely close to Lu Qingshan.
Therefore, he had to deal with these green vines before he could continue moving forward. Otherwise, these green vines would continue to follow him and grind him to death.
Since this was the case, Lu Qingshan no longer cared about the consumption of spiritual power. With a thought, he released his sword intent.
Hiss!
The sword light seemed to cut through the void. As it moved, one could even faintly see pitch-black cracks.
That was an optical illusion because the sword light was too dazzling. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The three Natal Swords displayed their magical powers. Lu Qingshan's external sword and internal sword techniques were used at the same time.
In less than four breaths of time, the ten green vines were cut down to four.
Subconsciously, Lu Qingshan looked at the experience consumption.
Immediately, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he had a pained expression.
From beginning to end, he used the Forgetfulness River for no more than ten breaths.
However, in less than ten breaths of time, he had already consumed thirty thousand experience points.
Sure enough, it was a money-grubber.
Chi!
Lu Qingshan swung his sword again. After cutting down the last green vine in front of him, he hurriedly put away the Forgetfulness River, and the experience points that were decreasing like flowing water stopped changing.
Wait!
In the next moment, Lu Qingshan suddenly realized a problem.
— — he had already killed more than a dozen green vines.
However, he did not receive any experience points.
He did not kill those green vines?
Impossible. He saw those green vines turn to dust with his own eyes.
… Then there was only one possibility left.
Those green vines were only a part of a certain creature!
It was like a centipede with thousands of legs. Naturally, he would not receive any experience points if he cut off ten of them.
He had to kill it in order to gain experience.
The green vines that were already so terrifying were only a part of a certain existence?! What kind of terrifying existence was the green vine's main body?
Lu Qingshan shuddered in his heart.
"I've already consumed thirty percent of my spiritual power." He sensed his own condition.
The consumption of spiritual power was close to his bottom line.
"If more green vines appear, I won't be able to advance any further." He decided in his heart.
According to his expectations, the spiritual power reserved for the advancement and return journey was sixty percent to forty percent, which was the most reasonable.
Because if he did not reserve more spiritual power for the return journey, he would probably die in the Thunder God Pool if he encountered an accident.
However …
Lu Qingshan circled around.
After dealing with the ten green vines, the green vines that had been constantly obstructing his advance no longer appeared.
"Have they all been dealt with?" Lu Qingshan was somewhat uncertain.
.....
…
"So strong, so strong. My ten green vines, according to the cultivation system of the human race, are equivalent to ten late Nascent Soul stage cultivators … but they couldn't even last for ten breaths of time under the sword cultivator's hands? He's clearly only an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator … "
"How can a human with such a weak bloodline have such combat strength?"
"It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense."
In the darkness, a gloomy murmur sounded continuously.
"Unless … Unless his Taoist foundation is the legendary flawless Taoist foundation …" Suddenly, the gloomy murmur thought of something. "This is the only possibility that can explain why he has such exaggerated combat strength!"
Humans were born with weak bloodlines. When they were born, they were just powerless infants.
Demons, on the other hand, were gifted with powerful bloodlines. The best among them, such as the True Dragon, already had the power to overturn rivers and seas when they were just born.
The contrast was stark. This was the difference in bloodlines.
In terms of bloodlines, humans should be at the bottom of the hierarchy in front of demons. They would never be able to rise again.
However, the truth was that humans relied on this weakest bloodline to unexpectedly become the masters of this world. The almighty even had the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.
What did they rely on? It was their acquired cultivation.
The foundation of the human cultivation path was the Taoist foundation.
The more powerful the cultivation method, the purer the spiritual power refined, and the more perfect the Taoist foundation built. The cultivator's future would be broader, and their combat strength would also be stronger.
The top-notch Taoist foundation was known as the flawless Taoist foundation. It meant that there were no flaws.
Cultivators who could cultivate such a Taoist foundation would have few opponents in the same realm.
The acquired Taoist foundation of humans corresponded to the innate bloodline of demons.
Humans could conquer nature.
This was the human race.
"Although the bloodline is slightly weaker, the flawless Taoist foundation of humans is more precious and rare than the bloodlines of those powerful Great Demons. In terms of growth and prospects, it's even stronger …
However, it's extremely difficult to maintain this flawless Taoist foundation to a high level … "The voice in the darkness was silent for a while, and gradually turned into an uncontrollable fanaticism." This is my last chance. If I want the best, it's him. It's him. It's a better choice than the Great Demon bloodline … "
"Hurry up and put away your tricks, lest you scare him away."
The owner of the voice had already made up his mind. With a thought, the hundreds of green vines that were originally lurking underground, ready to move, quietly retreated.
