In the woods, the time is mottled.

Lin Ze stood quietly with his back against the tree, staring at the ground in front of him.

On the ground in front of him, a snake brute crawled over the snake path, clear and winding forward, judging from the traces of this snake path, at least a large snake, smaller than the cold mountain green snake that Lin subdued before, it is not ruled out that it is a more powerful snake beast.

Of course, it was not these things that caused Lin Ze to stop and pay attention to now, but the traces on the ground In Lin Ze's opinion, it was really weird.

There was no problem with the snake path before, but from a distance to the current position in front of him, those snake paths stopped strangely and suddenly, replaced by the surrounding bushes lodging, the scene of earth and rocks, and the streak marks left by the full force of the whip-like Xuan soldier hitting the ground.

It looked as if it had been left behind by the large serpent beast that had been defeated and quickly defeated, tumbling and struggling.

Lin Ze carefully looked at these traces in front of him, and then sensed it.

It was very open, and what was left at the end of the trace a thousand meters away from here also proved the previous assertion in Lin Ze's heart.

It was the remains of a giant python that reminded it of the same as the congenital cold mountain green snake, judging from these remains, it may not be called a congenital brute beast, but, with its huge body alone, ordinary congenital brute beasts encountered, and they had to avoid its edge and dare not provoke.

However, here, it is such a giant python that is comparable to the combat power of the cold mountain green snake in the congenital stage, but at this time, it is extremely strange.

The tough snake skin and the palm-sized scales on its body were now discarded to the ground like a suit of armor, and the original flesh and blood were gone, leaving only the snake that seemed intact on the outside but empty on the inside.

This is a powerful snake beast with strength in the innate stage, just like this, the flesh and blood disappeared cleanly, leaving only the whole snake bone and a body of snake scales placed here alone, how strange such a scene is, how to look at it, how to make Lin Ze frightened.

It stands to reason that there are all kinds of brute beasts in the Xuanyin Tomb, and there are even grandmaster-level (Soul Eater Butterfly Queens), so it is not surprising that such a giant python died tragically.

However, Lin Ze was surprised, because, the most terrible thing was that there was not a single trace of blood left at the scene of the death of the giant python, nor did there be any smell of blood left.

It was as if this powerful python was dying of old age here, but from the wreckage it left behind, Lin Ze could say 100% that this was a giant python in his youth.

Moreover, the traces around are also new, as long as you see it, you will know that the life-and-death struggle definitely happened recently, and if a huge python wants to rot, it will take a year and a half.

Not only that, after Lin Ze came to the scene and sniffed the surrounding smell, he also found that there was a faint and extremely slight sweet fragrance left in the air.

Although the taste of this sweet fragrance is light, the fragrance is long and refreshing, and after smelling it, people can't help but take a few more deep breaths and are reluctant to spit it out for a long time.

"There's definitely something strange here!" The look on Lin Ze's face froze, and he barely restrained his heart from wanting to take a few more breaths of the sweet fragrance here, and at the same time turned on his sensing power and carefully searched for clues nearby.

After a while, a strange color flashed on his face, and then his spirit was lifted, and he quickly walked to the remains of the giant python on the ground.

The toe gently inserts it directly in a certain place, and picks it up.

"Uh!", the virtual python's body was easily turned over, revealing the ground pressed under it.

"And so it was. ”

After seeing the traces left on the ground, Lin Ze first looked happy, and then carefully took a few steps back, only then stabilized his body and held his hand on the Qingying Sword at his waist.

In between, on the ground found by Lin Ze, where it was originally covered by the body of a snake, hundreds of holes the thickness of a big finger were arranged in a disorderly manner, these small caves looked dark and secluded, but the aura inside seemed to be dangerous to choose people to eat.

The most terrible thing is that these holes are very neat and flat, and the surrounding land does not have the slightest crack, which shows the speed and force of the underground things breaking through the surface.

Otherwise, there will be some cracks in the location of this hole.

It's like driving nails into a wall, if you do it manually, you'll leave some tiny cracks around the nails, all because you have too little effort.

However, if you switch to a machine to drive nails, you will find that cracks around the nails are extremely rare.

This is because when the machine is nailing, it is extremely fast and powerful, so that the walls have no time to react to the appearance of small cracks.

Lin Ze turned around and squatted down again and carefully looked at the body of the giant python with its belly upwards beside him, and he could clearly see that from head to tail, there were hundreds of holes of the same size on the belly of the python, and the number was only slightly less than the caves on the ground.

As soon as he saw this, such a picture appeared in Lin Ze's mind.

This giant python was originally moving slowly here, perhaps because it had just eaten food, so it was lazy and did not move fast.

And just as it passed by here, suddenly, its entire body was directly restrained by something that suddenly burst out of the ground, and then the tips of these things directly broke open its abdomen and sucked up the flesh and blood on its body, which led to the death of this giant python was so weird.

Such attack characteristics, such predatory methods, and such a miserable fate of the prey, in Lin Ze's memory, there seems to be only one thing:

"This is the devil vine!!" Lin Ze said with a hint of viciousness in his mouth.

"I didn't expect there to be such a ghost thing as the Devil Vine here!" Lin Ze began to get nervous in his heart, and the right hand that had already held the Qing Ying Sword was even more green, and his sensing power was even more open, and he searched the surroundings carefully, trying to find out the traces of the Devil Vine.

After a while, Lin Ze suddenly took a deep breath, calmed down, and finally lowered his right hand from the hilt of the Qing Ying Sword, and then lowered his head and groaned.

The devil vine is an extremely dangerous and famous demon vine in the 100,000 mountains, living on the flesh and blood of animals and beasts, and the strength is extremely strong, as long as the devil vine grows up, it has the strength of the innate period, and its vine is born with the ability to break the gang and break the defense, even if it is a grandmaster, the talisman qi on the body of the great grandmaster, as long as the devil vine is given time, it can still be broken.

Maybe someone here will say it, it's just the strength of the innate stage, Lin Ze doesn't need to be so afraid.

Hehe, that's what you don't know, the number of vines in each devil vine is thousands, or even more, each vine of the devil vine has the strength of the innate stage, that is to say, one devil vine is equivalent to thousands, or even more congenital powerhouses.

In the face of so many congenital powerhouses, even if their strength is only one level of innate strength, those great grandmasters don't dare to provoke them, because doing so is just going to die.

Of course, the devil vine is not only so famous, it is actually the thing that many martial artists want to get the most.

Not to mention anything else, the vine of the Devil's Vine alone is an extremely precious refining material.

The whip-type Xuan soldiers refined by the devil vine vines, the lowest are all Xuan-level third-grade Xuan soldiers, and such Xuan soldiers are generally only possessed by elder-level characters in the sect.

A devil vine can have tens of thousands of vines, that is to say, thousands of Xuan-level third-grade Xuan soldiers, which is a great fortune.

In addition to these, there is another thing about the devil's vine that makes people blush.

That is the essence fruit that the Devil Vine bears after devouring countless brute beast essences - the Ghost Face Fruit!

The origin of its name is because the appearance of this fruit is similar to the face of a ghost, so it is called a ghost face fruit.

Ghost Face Fruit, don't look at its name is very unpleasant, it sounds like it is very evil, but in fact, his fruit ability is also very evil.

It's just that the ability of this fruit is very useful for warriors.

The ghost face fruit can enhance the soul power of the warrior.

It is said that inside each ghost face fruit is actually the soul of a brute beast or warrior who has been devoured by the devil's vine.

It is for this reason that this Ghost Face Fruit has the ability to enhance the ability of the soul.

Of course, this is just a legend, and as for whether this is the case in fact, it is not something that ordinary people can know.

Soul power is the most important thing for anyone.

Like an ordinary person, once his soul power is strengthened, as long as he replenishes the nutrients of the body, then his lifespan can be extended a lot.

For a martial artist, not only will his lifespan be increased, but his future of cultivation will also be brighter.

It is true that soul power cannot directly increase the cultivation speed of a martial artist, but she can greatly improve the martial artist's martial arts comprehension.

What was difficult to understand before, a martial artist can comprehend in a very short time.

The same set of martial arts, it may have taken you several years to cultivate before, but now you only need a few months to complete, or even less.

Therefore, although soul power cannot directly enhance the cultivation speed of a martial artist, indirectly, it can greatly reduce the cultivation time of a martial artist, and then increase the cultivation speed of a martial artist in an alternative way.

Finally, and most importantly, the stronger the soul power, the easier it is for a martial artist to enter the realm of the unity of heaven and man.
