Han Fei was swimming quickly to the red dot closest to him. According to the scale of the map, it was about 800 kilometers away.
On the way.
Shu Shan asked, “Do you really believe what the tree said?”
Han Fei thought for a moment. “Why not? If there is indeed a lot of demonic energy and traces of damage remaining in that place, then what he said will be true.”
The bracelet shook slightly. “Your vigilance seems to have disappeared when you saw that vine. Do you know something about that thing?”
Han Fei smiled secretly. It’s about Demon Purification Pot. How could I tell you?
“No.”
Shu Shan snorted. “So you know it. However, it looks just like an ordinary grass vine and doesn’t seem to be special.”
Han Fei didn’t explain either. He didn’t want to, nor would he explain this kind of secret to Shu Shan.
He swam around 500 kilometers.
Suddenly, Han Fei perceived that somewhere 40 kilometers away, there was a group of sea demons fighting. What they were fighting was a Thousand-Year Tree Demon.
Among them, there was an acquaintance of Han Fei… Yu Yun?
Han Fei frowned and set up the Breath Concealing Array and the Stealth Array on himself before he quietly approached.
A bit closer, Han Fei sat on a giant algae vine.
Han Fei wasn’t worried that his perception would be discovered. These sea demons were not his match at all.
Han Fei put a “peppermint” in his mouth when he suddenly found that a face appeared on the giant algae next to him.
Han Fei was stunned. “Why are you here?”
The Leafless Tree smiled. “In this demon forest, I am everywhere. I can appear on any plant.”
Han Fei was shocked. This passage was more than tens of thousands of kilometers long. This Leafless Tree said that he could be everywhere… How strong was he? No wonder he believed him so easily.
Without waiting for Han Fei to ask, the tree said, “Don’t think too much. I’m not that strong. It’s just because I am the eye of this passage’s secret realm that I can perceive everything. Once I leave here, I won’t be able to perceive such a large range.”
…
BAM!
In a shining golden light, the Thousand-Year Tree Demon was killed by the captain of that team.
Then the sea demon fell on the seabed and took out a dark green seed. When he put the seed on the ground, he immediately shouted, “Everyone, fly to the sky.”
When everyone was tens of meters away from the ground, the seed began to swell.
Crack!
The seeds exploded, shooting out a large blade of dark green grass. That blade of grass began to grow frantically at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In a short while, the small seed covered a radius of several tens of meters.
Seeing the leader smile, Yu Yun couldn’t help asking, “Master Yu Gu, we’ve planted two seeds. What’s the use of this seed?”
Yu Gu took a deep look at Yuyun and said, “You don’t have to know. You just need to remember this can help us kill that damn tree more easily.”
The other end.
Han Fei was stunned. “Demon Shattering Vine?”
The Leafless Tree said, “Do you know this kind of thing? Yes, this thing seems to be a Demon Shattering Vine. It can invade the ground veins, take roots down, and quickly cover a large area so as to destroy my control of this area and erode my power.”
Han Fei swallowed. “Can this seed work like this anywhere? The team I was in before also killed a Thousand-Year Tree Demon before, right?”
The Leafless Tree shook his head. “No, not everywhere. These people have been here many times and have already ascertained the location of this secret passage. Besides, they know that as long as they find the Thousand-Year Demon Tree, they find my weakness.”
If Han Fei didn’t believe much in what the Leafless Tree said before, after seeing Yuyun drop a Demon Shattering Vine, he believed in 80% of his words.
The Demon Shattering Vine grew faster and faster, and in a short while, it covered a range of about 200 meters.
Han Fei suddenly asked, “No, the Demon Shattering Vine I have seen probably only covers a range of about 50 meters. However, this plant has covered a range of 200 meters, and it is still growing.”
The Leafless Tree said, “That’s because they are absorbing the power of the ground veins.”
Han Fei wondered, “You can’t kill these Demon Shattering Vines?”
The Leafless Tree sighed. “Once invaded by them, this area can no longer be controlled by me, and I will lose my perception of this area. I’ll have to disappear…”
Before the Leafless Tree could finish speaking, that old face had disappeared.
“Huh? The tree disappeared so quickly?”
The bracelet trembled, and Shu Shan said, “Now, I kind of believe what he said. This Demon Shattering Vine is indeed not a good thing. Not only is it highly poisonous, but it also has its own consciousness. When it grows up, it’ll give birth to Demon Spiritual Fruit, which is even more harmful. If in the right place, they can even cover hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.”
“Thousands of kilometers?”
The bracelet trembled again. “Yes, this is the fastest growing kind of demon plant I’ve ever known. However, when they reach a certain level, they also need to make breakthroughs.”
“How many levels?”
“I don’t know, some are level-30, some level-40, and some level-50… It depends on where they are. If I’ve guessed right, this demon forest can help them to grow to level-40 all at once.”
Han Fei was shocked. “Really? There is no limit?”
The bracelet trembled. “Of course there is. Otherwise, if they grow unrestricted, no one can control them! All things have restrictions, but the restriction of the Demon Shattering Vine may be a little less.”
Until the Demon Shattering Vine grew to more than 500 meters, the sea demons left the area.
After confirming that they had left his range of perception, Han Fei slowly approached the area and a string of data emerged in his eyes.
<Name> Demon Shattering Vine
<Introduction> Deep-sea predator, highly poisonous, flexible, full of barbs. It feeds on large fish and shrimps, can prey according to the flow of water, and has its own consciousness. At maturity, it’ll give birth to Demon Spiritual Fruit, which can enhance the power of the soul.
<Level> 39
<Quality> Exotic
<Contains spiritual energy> 3,208 points
<Edible effect> Inedible
<Collectible> None
<Unabsorbable>
Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this piece of Demon Shattering Vine was only level-39 although it grew so big.
Han Fei landed and walked straight to the middle of the vines. Immediately, countless vines rushed towards him.
BAM!
Han Fei casually blasted out a punch, and a large number of vines were crushed.
Bang, Bang, Bang!
One punch after another, the Demon Shattering Vines on the ground were quickly crushed. However, Han Fei had a headache when he thought of the vines buried deep in the ground. They had all gotten into the ground. How could he dig them out?
Besides, the broken ones were still growing outward.
“Nine Tails, come out.”
After Nine Tails appeared, he circled Han Fei and rubbed against his body.
Han Fei kicked him out. “Go, dig a hole, and crush all these vines.”
Nine Tails glanced at those vines, thinking, Why did Master bother me with such a simple thing?
Hundreds of Void Chains were released and then crazily burrowed into the ground. Immediately, one vine after another was abruptly pulled out of the ground by Nine Tails.
After cleaning for more than ten minutes, Han Fei completely crushed this Demon Shattering Vine.
The Leafless Tree popped up again, his old face hung on a tree. “Your speed is really fast. Now you just need to drop the Thousand-Year Demon Spine, and then I can control all the ownerless Demon Spines and re-occupy this place.”
Han Fei said with pity, “The spines are good things! They can even penetrate Semi-Divine weapons.”
The Leafless Tree: “…”
Han Fei asked with a sheepish grin, “Uncle Tree, can you give me some of the spines? Look how hard I work for you.”
The Leafless Tree: “…”
The Leafless Tree was speechless. “Each Thousand-Year Tree Demon can only leave one Thousand-Year Demon Spine. In return, I can give you something else.”
Han Fei was overjoyed.
He just said it tentatively. Even if the Leafless Tree didn’t give him anything, he would still bury the Thousand-Year Demon Spine. After all, this was not a personal matter. Only when the Leafless Tree was strong, could he better deal with the sea demons and protect humans.
Han Fei couldn’t help asking, “What is it? Can you tell me in advance?”
The Leafless Tree was silent for a while, and said leisurely, “My sap.”
Han Fei: “…”
“Sap? Why does that sound weird? What does it do?”
The Leafless Tree slowly said, “It contains strong energy and can enhance your physique.”
Han Fei was disappointed. It sounds not that useful! If I need energy, I can take spiritual fruit. If I want to strengthen my physique, I can cultivate!
Han Fei shrugged, dropped a Thousand-Year Demon Spine, and stuck it in the ground. “Okay! It’s better than nothing.”
Han Fei jumped out again with a swish. On the way, the big face of the Leafless Tree had been following him.
The Leafless Tree said, “You may have to speed up. There are already 7 sea demons teams within 5,000 kilometers from me, but only 4 human teams, and they still need about three days to get here.”
Han Fei was shocked. “But the ground veins have been destroyed in more than 20 places. How can I be so fast?”
The Leafless Tree was silent for a while. “There is another person cleaning up.”
Han Fei was surprised. “Who?”
“You’ve seen her, Luo Xiaobai. However, she is only responsible for cleaning 5 places because she can’t get too far away. She’s a truly powerful manipulator.”
“Who? Xiaobai? She is leading a team?”
“No, she has left the team. She’s alone.”
