“It’s a spiritual plant!”
A spiritual plant?
“Sky-Charming Demon Vine!”
Ye Wushuang explained directly, “It’s a type of vine-like spiritual plant that loves to devour flesh and blood.”
Upon hearing this, Li Wenbo shrank back, quickly moving closer to Ye Wushuang.
“Be careful!” Ye Wushuang warned again, “If you’re injured by the Sky-Charming Demon Vine, even the slightest wound will lead to endless pursuit. Once entangled, your flesh will be completely consumed.”
Li Wenbo immediately enveloped himself in layers of Tiangang energy, firmly protecting his body.
Boom, boom, boom…
At that moment, the ground cracked again, and numerous vine tentacles lunged upwards. Their targets were none other than Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo.
With the Tianya Sword in hand, Ye Wushuang wasted no time and struck out fiercely. A terrifyingly sharp energy erupted, with sword qi slashing towards the thick tentacles. The surface of the tentacles was covered with sharp thorns, gleaming with an eerie green light, constantly attacking the two.
While engaging with the vine tentacles, Ye Wushuang kept an eye on the cracks in the ground. After a while, he suddenly said, “Li Wenbo, protect yourself.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Wushuang unexpectedly stopped resisting and allowed the vines to wrap around him. The thorns tried to pierce through his body, but Ye Wushuang, now at the ninth level of the Yuanfu Realm, possessed an inner energy as powerful as Tiangang energy. He surged his Yuanfu energy, with thunder and flame energy enveloping his body, making it impossible for the thorns to penetrate his skin.
However, the vines were not willing to give up on their captured prey so easily. They quickly retracted, pulling Ye Wushuang into an underground hole.
“Brother Ye…” Li Wenbo was stunned.
The vines immediately retreated.
Standing by the pit, Li Wenbo lamented sorrowfully, “Brother Ye, you sacrificed yourself to save me… You are truly the epitome of selflessness!”
With a mournful expression, Li Wenbo muttered, “If I had known you were willing to go to such lengths for me, I should have asked you for the Heavenly Fragrance Dew and a Golden Thunder Celestial Pill as well…”
Meanwhile, on the other side, Ye Wushuang was pulled underground by the vines. As the vines retracted into the depths, dust flew around. Ye Wushuang remained steady, his energy protecting him, ensuring that the thorns could not harm him in the slightest.
Boom…
Suddenly, the vines seemed to retreat completely underground.
Ye Wushuang’s body was violently thrown out, tumbling to the ground. He quickly got up, clutching the Tianya Sword tightly, and scanned his surroundings.
This was an underground cavern.
The cavern was dimly lit, with only green light flickering around. At a glance, the cavern was dozens of zhang tall, and at its center, the main body of the Sky-Charming Demon Vine was clearly visible.
The trunk of the Sky-Charming Demon Vine was ten zhang tall and three zhang thick. Unlike other spiritual trees and plants, its trunk was not solid but resembled a transparent jade rod. At the core of the trunk, Ye Wushuang saw a ding, an ancient bronze vessel, glowing with a coppery light. The ding was one zhang tall, with a bronze sheen, and the vine’s roots were connected to it, much like human blood vessels, all attached to the ding.
Moreover, the flesh and blood devoured by the vine’s tentacles were all channeled into the ding, absorbed by the bronze vessel. The Li King Ding!
Ye Wushuang was taken aback.
If what Tai Shengzi had said was true, then this ding might indeed be the Li King Ding.
Ye Wushuang did not rush forward recklessly. He circled around the Sky-Charming Demon Vine and, on the other side, saw more than ten corpses.
“Du Mingyue… Feng Chengyu… Feng Yaran…” Among them, three bodies were still intact, and Ye Wushuang immediately recognized them. The other corpses had parts of their flesh already stripped from their bones, sucked away by the vine’s tentacles.
The young elites of the Tianyang Empire and the Gufeng Empire had all… fallen!
Seeing this scene, Ye Wushuang instantly understood everything.
