Chapter 66: Ghost Vine (Medium)
Seeing Xiao Wu land safely, Tang San breathed a sigh of relief.
With a slight movement of his fingers, the blue silver grass wrapped around Xiao Wu and the master tightened, and the two of them were brought to Tang San's side.
The three of them stood back to back, looking at the darkness all around, with serious expressions.
"Teacher, this should be a plant-based soul beast, we have to find its body first!" Tang San said.
"Well, there are barbs on the vines, purple light on the stems and leaves, and a unique grimace and a faint scent of tea......" The master recalled that he had just observed the characteristics of a plant-based soul beast, and his face suddenly changed drastically.
"Oh no! it's a ghost vine!"
"Ghost Vine !?" Tang San's face also changed.
The ghost vine is an extremely terrifying plant-based soul beast!
It is extremely aggressive, and it has a very strong neurotoxin! As soon as it is stabbed by a spike on it, the toxin will be immediately emitted until it turns into pus and becomes the fertilizer of the ghost vine!
What scares the soul masters the most is the parasitic ability of the ghost vine!
When it attacks, it will emit countless tiny seeds on its own, directly parasitic on the enemy, as long as the ghost vine provides enough energy, or these seeds absorb enough nutrients, it will grow on the host, once the neurotoxin spreads, the effect is no different from being stabbed by spikes!
We were at the bottom of the big net just now, and although we were not hooked by the barbs, maybe there were seeds that had quietly parasitized us! If we couldn't kill the ghost vine in time, we would probably be parasitized by the ghost vine and die!
It's a must!
After deciding on the battle strategy, Tang San's mind was racing rapidly, trying to recall the record of the ghost vine in the book
The weakness of the oni vine, the weakness of the oni vine......
Suddenly, Tang San's eyes lit up.
I remember!
Although the oni vine is deadly and its attack methods are flexible, its main body is very weak and cannot move!
As long as you take advantage of this and find its hiding place, you can rely on the hidden weapon to fight it!
However, how could we find its hiding place? Tang San pondered and meditated.
The ghost vine is extremely good at concealment, and its barbs are usually collected in the vine when attacking, and when it is not visible, it is no different from a normal plant.
The faint scent of tea on its body is also... Tea fragrance...
Huh?
The smell of it itself is not tea, but fishy!
So what is it that masks its fishy smell?
Tang San seemed to have caught something, but he couldn't say clearly. He was desperately trying to find the flaws in the ghost vine.
That's right!
Tang San clenched his fists excitedly.
It is recorded in the book that there must be a blue grass growing around the ghost vine!
Oni vine is extremely poisonous, and it has an extremely strong fishy odor. Only by relying on the fragrance of the orchid grass can its fishy smell be purified and neutralized into a faint tea fragrance!
It is not very different from other plants and trees during the day, but it emits a faint purple light at night.
The branches of the ghost vine just now did not have a fishy smell, but a faint tea fragrance, which means that there must be a ghost vine around it to help neutralize the smell!
As long as you find the orchid grass, you can find the body of the ghost vine!
Thinking of this, Tang San hurriedly ran the Purple Pole Demon Pupil to probe around. However, no matter how much he tried, he couldn't find any trace of the orchid grass.
Eh, it's really strange!Could it be that there is a mistake in the book's description of the Youlan Grass?" Tang San couldn't help but wonder.
Could it be that you didn't see it clearly?
Tang San looked at every corner again. This time, he deliberately slowed down and carefully observed every corner, but he still couldn't find the body of the ghost vine.
"Shhhh It doesn't make sense! Although his Purple Pole Demon Pupil is only looking at the realm, he can also see everything. Even if it is an ordinary illusion, there is nothing to hide in front of the Purple Pole Demon Pupil, and the ghost vine is not a soul beast with spiritual attributes, how can it not be found?" Tang San was puzzled.
Forget it! Since you can't find the ghost vine through the orchid grass, the only way to do it is ...... Lure the snake out of the hole!
But for some reason, Tang San subconsciously felt a little uneasy, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
"Third brother, be careful!" Xiao Wu's eager cry sounded.
Countless rattans flew up in the grass, and the rattans twisted in the air, like a flexible whip, rolling up the howling wind, and pumping fiercely at everyone at a tricky angle.
Tang San's face remained unchanged, and as soon as he stepped out, the purple light flashing in his eyes. The trajectory of the whip's swaying slowed down abruptly in his eyes, and in the purple world, the trajectory of the vine leaves was clearly visible.
Tang San stretched out his palm, and several wrist-thick blue silver grasses rose from the ground. The blue silver grass struck preemptively, and actually entangled all the vines in the air.
The vines wriggled wildly after being entangled, and a powerful pull came from the vines, pulling the blue silver grass from its original wrist shape to the size of a fingertip!
The Blue Silver Grass was originally weak, but under the amplitude of the first soul ring, it became very resilient. Although the blue silver grass is somewhat deformed under the strong pulling force, it is still tough!
The blue silver grass was stubbornly entangled in the branches of the ghost vine, so that the ghost vine could not enter. The two sides were tightly entangled, and the "crunch" sounded from time to time, which made people's hearts palpitate.
Taking this opportunity to see, Tang San carefully observed the traces of the branches, wanting to find the hiding place of the ghost vine.
"Third brother, master, look at that!" Xiao Wu suddenly pointed in one direction.
Tang San and the master hurriedly looked at the place where Xiao Wu was pointing.
Xiao Wu pointed to the direction 100 meters directly behind where everyone was resting. It was pitch black, and the blades of grass reached up to an adult's knee, and there was no faint green glow of the ghost vine. The cool evening breeze blows, and the rustling of grass blades sounds, adding a bit of weirdness.
Tang San used the Purple Pole Demon Pupil to the maximum, and finally found that although there were no dark blue light spots behind the grass, there were fluorescent spots on the grass blades.
Although Tang San didn't know how the ghost vine covered the faint blue light of the ghost vine, the fluorescence on the grass stem exposed the ghost vine's body!
Without thinking about how Xiao Wu found out, Tang San quickly said, "Xiao Wu, you stay here to protect the master, and I'll kill the ghost vine!"
"Brother, don't worry, I will take care of the master, and you must also pay attention to safety!" Xiao Wu said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'll pay attention!" After speaking, Tang San put his feet on a little bit, and the whole person shot out like an arrow off the string.
Tang San raised his arm slightly as he was running, and three imperceptible rays of light shot into the grass.
"Shhhh Huh!!" A terrible hissing sound sounded, and Tang San's heart was settled, it seemed that behind the grass was the body of the ghost vine!
The ghost vine seemed to be enraged by Tang San, it hissed, and the intertwined vines suddenly turned purple-black, and as the stems and leaves turned purple-black, sharp barbs suddenly emerged.
The ghost vine twitched its whip, and the sharp barbs split the blue silver grass in two, tearing it apart.
Tang San's face changed, and he quickened the pace of moving forward.
After breaking free, the rattan whip quickly hooked back. The rattan whip was like a vicious giant snake, drawing a strong wind, and with the momentum of thunder, it slammed towards Tang San.
Several vines rose from the ground in front of him, blocking Tang San's way forward, and several vine snakes broke through the air behind him, and Tang San fell into a dilemma!
"Little three!"
"Third Brother"
The exclamations of the master and Xiao Wu sounded at the same time, but Tang San did not panic at all.
The afterimage passed by Tang San's feet, and the figure suddenly became illusory and ethereal. I saw that he kept moving and flashing in a place of a few inches, and he actually dodged the attacks of rattan snakes in all directions one by one!
The rattan whips smashed on the ground one after another, and the "crackling" sound kept sounding, the ground was sunken, and the dirt was splashing, but Tang San couldn't do anything about it.
Don't look at Tang San's calm appearance, but he secretly complained in his heart.
Although he used the ghost shadow to dodge the rattan whip behind him, the thorny jungle in front of him could never be crossed.
The previous long-distance rush had consumed Tang San's great soul power and physical strength, and before he had time to rest, the sudden attack of the ghost vine had almost exhausted the little soul power left in his body!
If it weren't for Tang San's years of working in the blacksmith shop, coupled with Xuantian Gong's powerful recovery ability, Tang San would have already exhausted his physical strength!
Rao was like this, Tang San's physical strength was also declining rapidly, and the pace under his feet also slowed down.
No, if you continue like this, I'm afraid that before I get close to the ghost vine body, I will run out of energy!
It seems that the only way to do this is to take risks......
