860 Chapter 860: Besieged From All Sides!
Tang Li Xue took out the pitch-black [Sword of Disaster] from her s.p.a.ce pouch and began to swing it around rapidly to cut the strange green vines that came toward her!
But no matter how many she cut, those strange green vines kept coming at her and her team from all directions like a flood!
Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was not alone...
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones were fighting the incoming strange green vines together while forming a circle with their back against each other, so they could protect each other flanks and rear.
[Blade Feather Slash]~! [Tearing Claw]~!
[Flash and Slash]~! [Scythe Claw Qi]~!
[Compressed Wind Blades] x15~! [Compressed Wind Swords] x15~!
[Repelling Spins]~! [Rapid Quick Slashes]~!
[Sharp Edge Power]~! [Moonlight Flash]~!
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones kept unleas.h.i.+ng their skills to shatter the countless approaching strange green vines!
Despite that, Tang Li Xue and her team could only proceed really slowly to the deeper part of the small herbal garden while kept fighting nonstop fiercely to prevent the countless strange green vines from getting close to them.
But there was no doubt that the pressure given by the countless strange green vines was increasingly stronger as they got closer to the deepest part of the small herbal garden!
Little Loki felt really annoyed by the strange green vines and finally decided to use its strongest skill to clean them!
Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones transformed from their kitten form to their Battle Form in that instant!
Then the real Little Loki opened its mouth...
[Heaven"s Devour]~!
Surprisingly, the power of [Heaven"s Devour] became a lot stronger while Little Loki was in its Battle Form!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
Countless strange green vines were rapidly sucked into Little Loki"s mouth!
"Amazing, Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue excitedly shouted while clapping her hands.
Just like a strong vacuum cleaner sucking all the dirt, countless strange green vines in front of Little Loki were sucked and devoured by Little Loki in only a few moments.
Unfortunately, Little Loki"s [Heaven"s Devour] could only clean the countless strange green vines in its direction.
The others still had to fight fiercely against the approaching strange green vines in their respective directions, but at least, the pressure they faced was relieved a lot thanks to Little Loki"s [Heaven"s Devour].
With Little Loki leading with its [Heaven"s Devour], the exploration progress speed of Tang Li Xue and her team increased significantly once again!
At this rate, it might not take long for Tang Li Xue and her team to find the precious treasures with star energies in this pill and elixir room!
After proceeding a few hundred meters, Tang Li Xue saw a cave embedded in the wall.
It seemed to be a man-made cave created to preserve and cultivate the precious plants.
The protective formation even covered the cave entrance to prevent any intruder from sneaking in and stealing something inside it.
Thankfully, they did not need to worry about how to crack the protective formation in order to enter the cave since Little Loki only needed to use its [Heaven"s Devour] to forcefully create a hole in that protective formation.
Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and its nine [Phantom Splitter] Clones quickly jumped into the hole in the protective formation and entered the dark cave before the hole could recover and get closed again.
But those strange green vines suddenly changed their movement after Tang Li Xue and her team managed to enter the cave!
Those strange green vines stopped attacking Tang Li Xue and her team blindly like before and began to intertwine with each other to form something!
"Oh, d.a.m.n it~! I have a really bad feeling about this." Tang Li Xue"s perfect copy muttered in a solemn tone.
Little Loki also stopped using its [Heaven"s Devour] since those strange green vines had stopped attacking Tang Li Xue and her team for now.
Continuously using [Heaven"s Devour] was actually very taxing even for the current Little Loki in its Battle Form, so it needed some time to take a breath and recover.
"Let"s go~! Just let them be and help me find the treasures with star energy instead!" Tang Li Xue urged her team with an anxious tone.
Unfortunately, the countless strange green vines had finished what they wanted to do before Tang Li Xue and her team could enter deeper into the dark cave.
The countless strange green vines actually formed hundreds or even thousands of vine soldiers and each of them holding a vine spear!
BWOOOOSH~!
Those thousands of vine soldiers threw their vine spears toward Tang Li Xue and her team in unison while kept charging toward them fearlessly!
Dense vine spears flew swiftly toward Tang Li Xue and her team!
Those dense vine spears completely filled their vision without leaving them with any s.p.a.ce to dodge at all!
"Holy moly~!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in shock, but she quickly created some protective wall to block those vine spears!
[Mother Earth"s Gift], Stone Wall~!
[Energy Manipulation], Transparent Protective Barrier~!
BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy sighed in relief when their double layers of defensive barriers managed to block all of those vine spears.
But just as they prepared to face the incoming vine soldiers...
"Kweeaaaakk (Watch out, everyone)~!" Lucia anxiously chirped to warn them all!
Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy also sensed the danger coming toward them from behind with their [Extrasensory Perception], but it was already a bit too late for them to react!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
An enormous vine tentacle created from millions of strange green vines intertwined together into one suddenly whipped toward Tang Li Xue and her team from above!
Even Tang Li Xue and her team really did not expect this sudden sneak attack since the strange green vines were using the previous vine spears and the vine soldiers as distractions to attract their attention!
The real finis.h.i.+ng move was actually this enormous vine tentacle!
The entire st.u.r.dy underground palace shook violently for a few moments as the enormous vine tentacle stomped Tang Li Xue and her team like a falling heavy mountain!
The strange green vines thought Tang Li Xue and her team should have been crushed to a puddle of blood under the enormous vine tentacle"s attack, so it slowly dispersed again.
Who knew the strange green vines found that Tang Li Xue and her team had actually not died yet?!
At the last moment before the enormous vine tentacle could crush Tang Li Xue and her team, Lucia suddenly jumped toward them while using her [Gigantification] to enlarge her body!
Yes, Lucia used her body to protect Tang Li Xue and her team!
Of course, her entire body was already covered with silver armor made from [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl].
Not only that, Lucia also activated all of her defensive skills to increase her defense further!
[Golden Light Spell]~!
[Golden Vajra s.h.i.+eld]~!
Thanks to that, Tang Li Xue, her perfect copy, Yaya, and Little Loki were unharmed by the enormous vine tentacle"s sneak attack!
"Lucia~! Are you all right?" Tang Li Xue asked in a worried tone as she hastily took out [Talisman of Regeneration +3] from her s.p.a.ce pouch and used it on Lucia.
Lucia shook her head to rea.s.sure Tang Li Xue, but her back was actually injured quite badly.
Fortunately, Lucia could recover pretty quickly since her [Golden Vajra Body] had a high-speed regeneration effect plus Tang Li Xue"s [Talisman of Regeneration +3], it might only take dozens of breaths for her wounds to completely recover.
But before that could happen, thousands of vine soldiers with vine spears in their grasp had already completely surrounded Tang Li Xue and her team from all directions!
The strange green vines really did not give any time for Tang Li Xue and her group to take a breath at all!
"These d.a.m.n annoying vegetables~! Everyone, let"s just buy some time for Lucia to recover!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in rage while shouting to instruct her team.
However, something even more surprising suddenly happened right in front of their eyes!
Those thousands of vine soldiers actually knew how to use army formation and martial arts!
Tens of vine soldiers were attacking Tang Li Xue in a neat formation while performing their spear techniques!
Tang Li Xue: "???!!!"
Tang Li Xue was forced to use her [Sword Disaster] to block those vine soldiers" spear technique attacks!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Redirection Flow!
Tang Li Xue redirected those vine soldiers" spear technique attacks to stab into the ground, then she stepped onto their spear and unleashed her counterattack!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Tracing Counter!
PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!
Even though Tang Li Xue managed to behead those dozens of vine soldiers, but they could still actually move around as usual without being affected at all!
They pulled their spear from the ground and began to attack Tang Li Xue once again simultaneously!
Not only Tang Li Xue, but others were also facing the same difficulties fighting against those vine soldiers!
Those vine soldiers were not only powerful and annoying, but they were also fearless and could not be killed!
Well, their bodies were made from intertwined vines after all, so they could easily recover even if Tang Li Xue and her team cut them apart!
Just as Tang Li Xue and her group were too occupied in fighting against those unkillable vine soldiers, another enormous vine tentacle whipped toward them again from above!
I am really sorry for not publis.h.i.+ng any chapter in several days. My right hand got injured, so I could not write. (TwT) I want to finish a chapter and publish it since yesterday, but I can only finish it now.
